I should have done that, so I 36 00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 4: turned the mic off when I do this, Atticus, there 37 00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:58,600 Speaker 4: probably a good call. It's now on there. Anybody watching 38 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 4: on the YouTube knows what I just did. But good 39 00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:03,000 Speaker 4: afternoon to you. My name is Jake Quiy Nathaniel, don't 40 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 4: call me Atticus. Finch is in for Eddie Garrison. Eddie 41 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:09,079 Speaker 4: is back. They had some last minute hiccups apparently, and 42 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 4: the fair Ground light deal is fabulous, but apparently they 43 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:14,399 Speaker 4: wanted Eddie to come out and help out a little 44 00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:15,920 Speaker 4: bit more. So he's going to be doing so now 45 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:18,359 Speaker 4: are you and tomorrow as well? Atticus? I'm not I 46 00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:21,639 Speaker 4: think it might be Kurt maybe. Okay, So we go 47 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:25,840 Speaker 4: to the bullpen, but nonetheless capably so. And let me 48 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:28,520 Speaker 4: tell you what happened over the weekend where you heard 49 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:33,399 Speaker 4: Zyre Franklin say that San Francisco travels well. I don't 50 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:36,799 Speaker 4: know that it's San Francisco travels well. They're a fascinating team, 51 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 4: the forty nine Ers as a franchise, because if you've 52 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 4: been to the Bay Area, which I have on several occasions, 53 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 4: there's no doubt about the fact that they are. You know, 54 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:50,959 Speaker 4: when you go through San Francisco and you walk around, 55 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 4: you know, I think that there are definitely Niners fans, 56 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 4: but very few people that live in that area of 57 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 4: the country are born and raised there, per se. I 58 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 4: shouldn't say that, but it's obviously transient area. The Niners 59 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 4: quote unquote travel well in the fact that there are 60 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 4: tons of forty nine Ers fans that already live here, 61 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 4: because and this would be true in Louisville, this would 62 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 4: be true in Dayton, this would be true in you know, 63 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:18,800 Speaker 4: I'm trying to think of cities that don't have an 64 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 4: NFL team Sat louis before the Rams, I know, they 65 00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:27,160 Speaker 4: had the Cardinals, But the Niners are a national brand. 66 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:30,080 Speaker 4: They are a national brand and so therefore, there are 67 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:34,360 Speaker 4: people of my age or older that grew up before 68 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:36,640 Speaker 4: the Colts were really a thing, or before they were 69 00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 4: even here, and they grew up watching Joe Montana and 70 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 4: Jerry Rice and Steve Young and all of those teams. 71 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 4: And yes, the Colts were here for the better part 72 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 4: of that, but they weren't entrenched and a lot of people. 73 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 4: Those helmets in particular drew people in. But I was 74 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 4: yesterday at the Yule Tide. My family. Every year we go. 75 00:03:56,280 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 4: It's a query family tradition to the Yule Tide, which 76 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:04,880 Speaker 4: is fantastic on Monument Circle and the Symphony Orchestra, and 77 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 4: this year they changed the show a little bit this year, 78 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 4: and I thought it was outstanding. But we were walking 79 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 4: in to the Ule Tide and on Monument Circle and 80 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:16,440 Speaker 4: it's been a long time. I've only seen this one 81 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 4: other time, when I was in Manchester, England over the 82 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 4: summer and was going to the Oasis show. There there 83 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 4: were pop up guys all over the place with tables 84 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:29,240 Speaker 4: selling Oasis gear and you know that you're going to 85 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 4: watch them twice and then after that it's just you 86 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 4: know that your hat's going to say as is, because 87 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:38,720 Speaker 4: like the o is going to fade off. But there 88 00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 4: was a guy selling knockoff Niners gear on Monument Circle 89 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:46,040 Speaker 4: and I thought, now that's that right there. You want 90 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:49,920 Speaker 4: to talk about an entrepreneur taking advantage of the situation. 91 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 4: Guys like you know what, Niners are in town? But 92 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 4: I thought, how many people are really here and walking 93 00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,280 Speaker 4: around for the San Francisco forty nine ers in Indianapolis. 94 00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:00,599 Speaker 4: But Zire Franklin mentioned the travel, Well, there are fans 95 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 4: that are going to be there. But tonight is a 96 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:04,839 Speaker 4: big one for the Colts Monday Night football, and there's 97 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,479 Speaker 4: plenty to talk about over the course of today. Don 98 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 4: Fisher's going to join us coming up Indiana basketball tonight 99 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:13,000 Speaker 4: as well, six o'clock, their final game before they get 100 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 4: totally into their Big Ten schedule. Clearly, now we know 101 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:20,040 Speaker 4: who Indiana is going to play in the college football playoffs. 102 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:24,280 Speaker 4: How crazy does that sound to say we know who 103 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:25,920 Speaker 4: they're going to be playing in the quarterfinals of the 104 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:28,159 Speaker 4: college football playoff as the number one seed in their 105 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 4: favorite over Alabama. Crazy? But we can unpack all of that. 106 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:36,799 Speaker 4: Butler's in action today taking on the New Jersey Institute 107 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:40,400 Speaker 4: of Technology. That game getting underway you can hear it 108 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:44,400 Speaker 4: on our sister station, Fuego at two o'clock today. The 109 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 4: Pacers also to discuss. But the big story is the Colts. 110 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:52,280 Speaker 4: And here's where we are with the Colts and this 111 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:56,560 Speaker 4: game with the Niners. Monday night football is awesome. There's 112 00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:59,520 Speaker 4: a buzz about Monday night football. There's an energy about 113 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 4: Monday Night five fotball. There's an excitement about money that football. 114 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:06,480 Speaker 4: There is when it comes to money that football, an 115 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:11,479 Speaker 4: element of an exclusivity. You know, you heard it there, Hey, 116 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,560 Speaker 4: like the whole country's watching. It's the one thing that's 117 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:21,600 Speaker 4: on all of that. And that is all cool for sure, 118 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 4: right and it's exciting. But at the same time, where 119 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 4: are the Colts and who are the Colts? It has 120 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 4: been a disastrous stretch since the buye, a disastrous stretch 121 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 4: since the buye. Last night was really the only thing 122 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:43,839 Speaker 4: that has gone the way of the Colts since the bye. 123 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:48,840 Speaker 4: Since the bye week, there have been sixteen games, sixteen 124 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:53,840 Speaker 4: of them that have had impact in one way or 125 00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 4: another that could favor or hurt the Colts in terms 126 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:01,280 Speaker 4: of a playoff seat or a playoff position. And those 127 00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 4: sixteen games going into last night have gone oh and 128 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 4: sixteen in the favor of what the Colts need. Games 129 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 4: that the Colts needed a team to lose, that team won. 130 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,400 Speaker 4: Games that a team that the Colts needed a team 131 00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:23,560 Speaker 4: to win for them they lost. And I'm talking about 132 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 4: those that are stuck around them. Finally, that streak came 133 00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 4: to an end last night because it was good news 134 00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:31,800 Speaker 4: for the Colts that Baltimore lost because of the fact 135 00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:36,800 Speaker 4: that you had New England is going to win that 136 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 4: division or is you know New England is Baltimore is 137 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,320 Speaker 4: right there in the thick for a playoff seed, and 138 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,160 Speaker 4: so you needed for a wild card, and so you 139 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 4: need to Baltimore to lose, and they did. That's the 140 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:51,120 Speaker 4: first thing that's gone the way of the Colts. And 141 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 4: this week when it comes to the Christmas week, you've 142 00:07:55,440 --> 00:08:00,200 Speaker 4: got Christmas on I think Christmas is Thursday. I thinks 143 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 4: it all runs together after a while, right, it's like, oh, gosh, 144 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 4: I've got this to do. Like tomorrow night, I'll be 145 00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:06,880 Speaker 4: at ale Emporium from five until seven as part of 146 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 4: our Mini Hoops Challenge with Mick Ultra. Look forward to it, 147 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 4: and I'm excited about that. And then I think to myself, Oh, 148 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 4: that's great because that's like the start of the holiday. 149 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 4: I'm like, oh no, that's right. There's Wednesday, most people work, 150 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 4: and then that's Christmas. Even then Thursday's Christmas and everybody 151 00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:25,240 Speaker 4: has this like free floating trying to piece together and 152 00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:28,080 Speaker 4: figure out where you need to be type schedule. And 153 00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 4: it feels like that's where the Colts are right now 154 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 4: going into this game tonight with San Francisco, of trying 155 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,679 Speaker 4: to figure out where they slot and where they go 156 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 4: from here? Is this a wash? Are we going into 157 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:42,800 Speaker 4: this game saying this is window dressing. I'm a little 158 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:45,319 Speaker 4: intrigued by Philip Rivers. But outside of that, this is 159 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 4: not of This is not something that I'm sitting here 160 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:53,480 Speaker 4: trying to stress or figure out what is happening because 161 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:56,079 Speaker 4: I got stuff to do. It's the holiday week and 162 00:08:56,200 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 4: they're done. Or are you looking at it saying, look, 163 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 4: even with all that's gone on, if they went out, 164 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 4: their chances go up exponentially eighty six percent chance of 165 00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 4: getting in the playoffs. If they went out. They just 166 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 4: got to take care of business. They just got to 167 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:20,079 Speaker 4: take care of business. But it feels like there's this 168 00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 4: total instability where you just can't in your mind, you 169 00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 4: can't get this traction of what all has to happen 170 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:29,840 Speaker 4: left for the Colts to salvage this season that started 171 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,679 Speaker 4: out so promising and now looks like it could be 172 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:38,000 Speaker 4: a dumpster fire. And it's not entirely their fault. Injuries 173 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 4: have come into play, but it's also somewhat their fault 174 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 4: because they didn't prepare themselves to some extent for say, 175 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:54,199 Speaker 4: those injuries, and they now find themselves in this spot 176 00:09:54,320 --> 00:10:00,240 Speaker 4: with San Francisco tonight. Now let's begin with this started 177 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,720 Speaker 4: out seven and one, and when the Colts were seven 178 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 4: and one, we were all talking about it, right, we 179 00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:09,360 Speaker 4: were all like those little kids that were nestled in 180 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:13,679 Speaker 4: bed with sugar plump fairies dancing in their head. Right, 181 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 4: everybody started imagining and dreaming, Holy cow, number one seed, 182 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 4: home field advantage, Super Bowl is inevitable, inevitable. At least 183 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:30,959 Speaker 4: a playoff push was a certainty inevitable. I'm being a 184 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:34,440 Speaker 4: little facetious there, But let's look at. 185 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 8: Now. 186 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 4: When you look at it, that's seven and one mark. 187 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 4: Because the NFL is a long year, the NFL is 188 00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:48,559 Speaker 4: so many things can change when it comes to the 189 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:53,000 Speaker 4: National Football League there's no certainty or consistency in the 190 00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:56,599 Speaker 4: NFL when it comes to knowing who and what everybody is. 191 00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,280 Speaker 4: And at the time that they beat Miami, and I 192 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 4: remember at the very beginning of the season Matt Verdram 193 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:05,560 Speaker 4: being on with us and Matt Verderam saying when I said, 194 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 4: who's the team that their year could just become a 195 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 4: complete disaster, and he said, I think it's the team 196 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:14,240 Speaker 4: that's coming to see Indianapolis on Sunday, the Miami Dolphins. 197 00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 4: And there's some truth to that. Here we are down 198 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:23,959 Speaker 4: the home stretch, Miami six and nine. They beat Denver, 199 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 4: they beat Denver. Nathaniel don't call me Atticus Finch's Denver 200 00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:34,959 Speaker 4: Broncos beaten by the Colts. And did anybody at the 201 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 4: time did anyone think to themselves, that's a really good 202 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 4: quality win over a top flight I think people thought 203 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:46,600 Speaker 4: Denver was going to be good, but they beat them, 204 00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 4: and they kind of got gifted to win because of 205 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:52,880 Speaker 4: the mysterious leverage call. But nonetheless, so win's a win. 206 00:11:53,000 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 4: You take it. Tennessee. Tennessee's the free space bingo? Is 207 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:04,160 Speaker 4: it not fine? You get Tennessee great? And I know 208 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 4: they won this weekend. But you get Tennessee the Raiders, 209 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 4: the disastrous Raiders, who I said was going to be 210 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:13,080 Speaker 4: one of those teams that was going to turn out 211 00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:15,040 Speaker 4: to be like a pretty good team. It has been 212 00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:21,679 Speaker 4: a complete, complete disaster for the Raiders. Two and thirteen Arizona, 213 00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 4: the most obscure anonymous franchise in the NFL. Arizona three 214 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:32,599 Speaker 4: and twelve, Atlanta should have lost to Atlanta, should have 215 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:36,560 Speaker 4: lost to Atlanta. But you beat them Atlanta now six 216 00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 4: and nine and the Chargers win is a good win. 217 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:39,839 Speaker 4: To go out there and do what they did to 218 00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 4: the Chargers was a good win. But all told, if 219 00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:45,839 Speaker 4: you take the Chargers and the Broncos out of it, 220 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 4: and this is what I think the Colts have to 221 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:54,240 Speaker 4: analyze and what Carli ors Gordon needs to assess. If 222 00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:56,800 Speaker 4: you take the Chargers and the Broncos out of it, 223 00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:58,959 Speaker 4: which is a little absurd because they are part of 224 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 4: the schedule and they beat them, and I know that 225 00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:06,520 Speaker 4: Daniel Jones and that injury comes into play. But this 226 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 4: is the crossroad of where the Indianapolis Colts stand right now. 227 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:15,760 Speaker 4: They go into this push with three games left, and yes, 228 00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:18,720 Speaker 4: they have a chance to win out and put themselves 229 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 4: in very good position. And is anybody confident that if 230 00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:25,240 Speaker 4: they went out and put themselves in that good position 231 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:28,640 Speaker 4: and get into playoffs, that Philip Rivers is going to 232 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 4: find the fountain of youth and all of a sudden 233 00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:35,120 Speaker 4: they then are going to make a run. Does anybody 234 00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:39,000 Speaker 4: think this is Jim Harbaugh letter rip that version of 235 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:42,840 Speaker 4: the Colts all over again, or are you just playing 236 00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:47,640 Speaker 4: it out kind of like this week you kind of 237 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:50,240 Speaker 4: forget what day is the one that's the big day? 238 00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:52,280 Speaker 4: That's Thursday's the big day. That's right? So what does 239 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 4: that mean for workwise? I forget? Do I have something 240 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:56,720 Speaker 4: to do on Tuesday or not? I can't remember. There 241 00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:59,559 Speaker 4: are so many different variables to it. It's like this 242 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:03,320 Speaker 4: un certain where nothing feels normal. But if you are 243 00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 4: looking at it, you're Carli ERSA Gordon, You're saying yourself, Okay, 244 00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:08,120 Speaker 4: I'm going to take out those two wins, the two 245 00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:11,280 Speaker 4: really good wins they have the Chargers and the Broncos. 246 00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:14,840 Speaker 4: The Broncos which should have been a loss, but we'll 247 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,839 Speaker 4: take it. Twenty and fifty five is the record of 248 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 4: the teams the Colts have wins over twenty and fifty five. 249 00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:26,160 Speaker 4: This is a team now we can look at in 250 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 4: retrospect and say they got off to a great start 251 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 4: and were playing really good football, but they were literally 252 00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:37,360 Speaker 4: playing the bottom of the NFL. They were getting They 253 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 4: were like anybody remember Kimbo Slice. Remember Kimbo Slice when 254 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:45,320 Speaker 4: the UFC was first becoming a thing and MMA was 255 00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 4: first becoming a thing. And it's like this dude, Kimbo 256 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 4: Slice is just killing dudes. He is like two punches 257 00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 4: and out. I've seen these videos all over YouTube. It's unbelievable. 258 00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:59,640 Speaker 4: Kimbo Slice gets himself a big delay. I mean, rest 259 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:03,000 Speaker 4: in peace. I believe Kimbo Slice passed away. But Kimbo 260 00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:05,360 Speaker 4: Slice gets this big deal with UFC. He was one 261 00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:08,280 Speaker 4: of the first guys. You know, you already had Ken 262 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 4: Shan Rock and Hoys Gracie and those guys, but it 263 00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 4: was like, we're now going to bring this in and 264 00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 4: start bringing in the showing that the backstreet guys. And 265 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:20,560 Speaker 4: then what you find out is that Kimbo Slice was 266 00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 4: paying dudes like seven bucks out of fast food and 267 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 4: parking lots to come and meet him in a back 268 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:27,200 Speaker 4: alley and beat him up. And you're like, this guy 269 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:31,280 Speaker 4: can't beat anybody. And the Colts might have been Kimbo 270 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:35,280 Speaker 4: slice through eight weeks, they might have been. They were 271 00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:38,360 Speaker 4: playing at a high level Offensively, they were clicking along 272 00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:40,960 Speaker 4: all of a sudden. Alec Pierce is this great threat, 273 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:44,000 Speaker 4: Michael Pittman Junr is this over the middle threat. Jonathan 274 00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:48,120 Speaker 4: Taylor is an all pro back. Their offensive line looks outstanding. 275 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:51,800 Speaker 4: Tyler Warren looks like the second coming of insert the 276 00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:55,360 Speaker 4: name of your favorite tight end of all time, Antonio 277 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:59,480 Speaker 4: Gates and Jeremy Shockey and Mark Bavarro, and he looks 278 00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:06,600 Speaker 4: like all of them, right, Travis Kelce. Everything's clicking, and 279 00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:12,320 Speaker 4: then the thing that happened that you have to assess, 280 00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:17,520 Speaker 4: and then the thing that happened that I go to precedent. 281 00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:24,920 Speaker 4: The precedent was that with this franchise, with a team 282 00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:28,400 Speaker 4: that had something where everything came together before their very 283 00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 4: eyes and there was this stunning, heartwarming, exciting season coming 284 00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:39,920 Speaker 4: into form. They pushed in too aggressively and they altered 285 00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:42,400 Speaker 4: the timelines for Andrew Luck because they had all these 286 00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:45,040 Speaker 4: veterans they went and got and they didn't allow things 287 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:48,400 Speaker 4: to organically grow with Andrew Luck and build in protecting 288 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:50,960 Speaker 4: him Luck didn't help himself with the way his style 289 00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:54,960 Speaker 4: of play. I get it. But when it didn't come 290 00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:57,440 Speaker 4: to fruition, then the Colts were really stuck between a 291 00:16:57,520 --> 00:16:59,520 Speaker 4: rock and a heart place because of the things that 292 00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:02,720 Speaker 4: they had mortgaged and put on a credit card, and 293 00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:07,480 Speaker 4: those bills came due, and for this team to start 294 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:10,560 Speaker 4: out seven and one. Where the Colts may have aired 295 00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:13,720 Speaker 4: is they may have looked at that and thought that 296 00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:17,560 Speaker 4: that was a legitimate seven and one and that they 297 00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:22,119 Speaker 4: were an upper echelon team that could compete regularly with 298 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 4: the Buffaloes in the postseason, that could compete regularly with 299 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:28,359 Speaker 4: the Denvers in the postseason. Yes, they beat them in 300 00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:31,119 Speaker 4: the regular season. I get it. That could compete with 301 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:34,600 Speaker 4: New England, who just kind of quietly goes about their 302 00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 4: business and has a really good young quarterback in Drake May. 303 00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:44,159 Speaker 4: And the Colts pushed in and they traded for Sauce Gardner, 304 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:48,760 Speaker 4: and I understand it. I didn't. I wasn't doing backflips 305 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:50,920 Speaker 4: over the thought of trading for a corner when you 306 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:53,480 Speaker 4: still need a pass rush. But I got the fact 307 00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:59,560 Speaker 4: that having two lockdown corners can alleviate and mask a 308 00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:03,040 Speaker 4: lack of pass rush, but they got aggressive with that 309 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:07,520 Speaker 4: trade and they traded away one of their offensive pieces 310 00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:10,639 Speaker 4: because that piece hadn't really gotten going, and they traded 311 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:14,239 Speaker 4: away two first round picks. And now here you are 312 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 4: in this position where, yes, maybe it's too early to 313 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:21,119 Speaker 4: begin talking about what happens next season, but I can 314 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:23,560 Speaker 4: tell you this as somebody who was out doing my 315 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:26,360 Speaker 4: holiday shopping over the last week or so. And yes, 316 00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:28,640 Speaker 4: I do actually go in the stores on holiday shop. 317 00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:32,159 Speaker 4: The number one thing that people ask me, what do 318 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 4: you think happens with Chris Ballard and Schane Sikein? What 319 00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 4: should happen with Chris Ballard and Shane Steiken? And I 320 00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:42,159 Speaker 4: personally believe nothing will happen with Chris Ballard and Shane Stikeen. 321 00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:48,000 Speaker 4: And I think there's probably justification, certainly in Shane Steiken's 322 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:50,440 Speaker 4: case of bringing it back. I think Steichen has shown 323 00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:52,880 Speaker 4: himself more often than not to be a pretty good coach. 324 00:18:53,600 --> 00:19:01,280 Speaker 4: And I actually think against Seattle with Philip Rivers, Steiken 325 00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:06,000 Speaker 4: did a great coaching job. I do. I think he 326 00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:12,119 Speaker 4: called a game plan that was very strategically designed to 327 00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:17,680 Speaker 4: the limitation of Philip Rivers. And we can talk till 328 00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 4: the cows come home about whether or not that was 329 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:21,359 Speaker 4: the right decision to have Rivers in there, and what 330 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:24,200 Speaker 4: they did in clock may. All those things fine, but 331 00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 4: I thought they had a pretty good game plan. But 332 00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:31,239 Speaker 4: in the form of Chris Ballard, you can absolutely make 333 00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:36,400 Speaker 4: the case, totally make the case that repeating the same 334 00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:39,159 Speaker 4: process over and over and expecting different results is the 335 00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:44,000 Speaker 4: definition of insanity. And if you are Chris Ballard, you 336 00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:46,600 Speaker 4: could look at it and say, look, when we were healthy, 337 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:50,119 Speaker 4: we were beating Denver. When we were healthy, we were 338 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:52,480 Speaker 4: beating the Chargers. We were beating these teams that we 339 00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:56,320 Speaker 4: would be seeing in the postseason and miss ERSA Gordon. 340 00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:59,359 Speaker 4: I'm telling you, just please keep in mind that it 341 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:02,440 Speaker 4: was the endies that really hurt us here, and if 342 00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:05,000 Speaker 4: it weren't for those injuries, we'd be in good shape. 343 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:08,080 Speaker 4: But every team has injuries, and most teams find ways 344 00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:10,240 Speaker 4: to kind of fight through them because they have a 345 00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:12,960 Speaker 4: depth or a backup plan. I know the situation with 346 00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:18,560 Speaker 4: Richardson was a freak deal, but at the same time, 347 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:22,359 Speaker 4: even if Richardson was healthy, do you fully feel that 348 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 4: Shane Steichen was comfortable handing him the ball saying Daniel 349 00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:27,920 Speaker 4: Jones is out and now we're going back to you 350 00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 4: and this is going to keep us where we need 351 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:31,920 Speaker 4: to be. You get the impression they don't even trust 352 00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:34,960 Speaker 4: the guy, and that falls on who it was whose 353 00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:38,119 Speaker 4: job it was to vet everything and determine whether or 354 00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:40,040 Speaker 4: not he should be on the roster. And that's who 355 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:42,600 Speaker 4: you should draft when you finally came to the most 356 00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:48,920 Speaker 4: important decision in your tenure. And the guy they selected, 357 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:51,360 Speaker 4: they don't seem to trust. And I know he's hurt, 358 00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:54,200 Speaker 4: I get it, but do you really feel they trust him? 359 00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:58,920 Speaker 4: And so if you're Chris Ballard, you can point to 360 00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:02,480 Speaker 4: it and say, look how close we were if not 361 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:06,440 Speaker 4: for the injuries. And if you're Carli Orsa Gordon, you 362 00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:10,280 Speaker 4: can say that might be true, but look how far 363 00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:13,960 Speaker 4: off you are now because of the injuries perhaps, but 364 00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:16,760 Speaker 4: the hole that we are now in where we don't 365 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:20,520 Speaker 4: know how to get out of it. Daniel Jones is 366 00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:25,359 Speaker 4: a huge question market quarterback a huge one. They have 367 00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:28,400 Speaker 4: no first round pick the next two years. They better 368 00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:33,240 Speaker 4: hope that Achilles heels perfectly and that he returns to 369 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:35,719 Speaker 4: the forum that he was through the first five games. 370 00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:40,040 Speaker 4: Those are two big ifs and it rides on that 371 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:44,879 Speaker 4: and the point I'm making here of talking about that 372 00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:47,560 Speaker 4: on a game day, on a Monday Night football, when 373 00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:50,199 Speaker 4: we should be talking about the awesomeness of Monday Night football. 374 00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 4: We should be talking about the excitement of Indiana football. 375 00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:55,280 Speaker 4: We should be talking about the fact that the Pacers 376 00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:57,480 Speaker 4: are in Boston and I take on the Celtics and 377 00:21:57,520 --> 00:21:59,480 Speaker 4: then they come back here and guess who's back to 378 00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:02,240 Speaker 4: be booed to. We should be talking about all those things, 379 00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:05,359 Speaker 4: and we should be building up the excitement and the 380 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:08,320 Speaker 4: anticipation and the awesomeness of the fact that Monday Night 381 00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:10,920 Speaker 4: football's here, and Joe Buck was on the morning show 382 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 4: this morning, and you know all the history of Monday 383 00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:17,639 Speaker 4: Night and the excitement of all of it. Except for that, 384 00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:21,920 Speaker 4: it just feels like this uncertainty is hanging over it. 385 00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:25,640 Speaker 4: Where we're going through the motion of what should be exciting, 386 00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 4: but you constantly are looking for that anvil hanging over 387 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:33,320 Speaker 4: your head. That's how I feel, at least. Maybe I'm 388 00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:36,080 Speaker 4: pessimistic Pete today, and I don't want to be. It's 389 00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 4: holiday week, it's festive, The util tide was awesome. Everybody's 390 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:41,520 Speaker 4: in a great mood and I love it. It's the 391 00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:43,680 Speaker 4: most wonderful time of the year, for sure. 392 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:45,600 Speaker 8: It is. 393 00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:53,840 Speaker 4: But do you truly feel that the future and the 394 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:58,000 Speaker 4: potential and all of it is still in their fingertips? 395 00:22:58,080 --> 00:23:01,600 Speaker 4: Do you feel that way? Or are we just going 396 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 4: through the motions and then already starting to prognosticate about 397 00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:10,560 Speaker 4: what it is of where this team goes and what's 398 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:15,639 Speaker 4: going to happen. Tonight we'll discover and go over and 399 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:18,760 Speaker 4: analyze who's in and who's out. From an injury standpoint, 400 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:22,560 Speaker 4: you know, you got Theforrest Buckner coming back, You have 401 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:25,960 Speaker 4: the unfortunate situation with Mooney Ward. Now with Sauce Gardner 402 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:28,280 Speaker 4: out as well. You see where that happens. There are 403 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:33,560 Speaker 4: so many things in the hopper that make it perplexing, 404 00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:35,920 Speaker 4: and that makes it intriguing. You heard him talking about 405 00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:37,879 Speaker 4: it from a national standpoint just before we came on 406 00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:41,639 Speaker 4: the storyline for the Colts tonight. The one certainty of 407 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:46,080 Speaker 4: the cult storyline tonight is the uncertainty which Philip rivers. 408 00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:48,239 Speaker 4: Are we going to see the one that could come 409 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:51,600 Speaker 4: up to the line and audible and throw pretty precise 410 00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:55,840 Speaker 4: seven yard passes or the one that then saw a 411 00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:57,840 Speaker 4: defense that said, well, now we know what you can 412 00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:01,360 Speaker 4: do that, loaded it up and kind of stalled things out. 413 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:04,320 Speaker 4: What defense are we going to see? What sort of 414 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:07,880 Speaker 4: you know, how uncorked can the San Francisco offense get? 415 00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:12,680 Speaker 4: There are certainly intriguing things about it, A lot of 416 00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:15,680 Speaker 4: intriguing college football as well, and I know that there 417 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:20,919 Speaker 4: is I get it. For those of you that are 418 00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:24,240 Speaker 4: bemoaning the fact that James Madison and Oregon was not 419 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:27,800 Speaker 4: a great game. For those of you bemoaning the fact 420 00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:32,400 Speaker 4: that Ole Miss and Tulane was not a great game, 421 00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:37,760 Speaker 4: I get it. But at the same time, do you 422 00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 4: recall last year SMU and Penn State That game was 423 00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:48,160 Speaker 4: a I mean, it was over before it began. Those 424 00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:52,840 Speaker 4: introductory games a year ago were the same. It's just 425 00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:56,280 Speaker 4: it's an easier narrative now because you have schools without 426 00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:59,080 Speaker 4: a lot of branding getting in over the schools that 427 00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 4: have branding. But in a world of name, image and 428 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:07,160 Speaker 4: likeness when it comes to name branding and history, those 429 00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:09,919 Speaker 4: things are great in terms of cachet, but it doesn't 430 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:13,320 Speaker 4: mean that it should merit you getting in. I saw 431 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:17,720 Speaker 4: somebody say Notre Dame would have beaten Miami, or like 432 00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:19,760 Speaker 4: Texas A and m This game is terrible and like 433 00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:22,480 Speaker 4: except for they didn't beat either and it was a 434 00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:25,640 Speaker 4: terrible game. And Miami wins. The two teams that many 435 00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:28,480 Speaker 4: people thought No Tore Dame should have gotten in over, 436 00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:33,880 Speaker 4: Miami and Alabama both win and No tre Dame's outstanding. 437 00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:35,480 Speaker 4: Like I said, I think they're one of the best 438 00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:38,440 Speaker 4: eight teams in college football on the eye test. But 439 00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:41,080 Speaker 4: you got to have a resume test as well. That's 440 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:43,920 Speaker 4: a past subject, I realize. But I thought the college 441 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:46,200 Speaker 4: football playoff games were pretty fun to watch. I thought 442 00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:51,000 Speaker 4: they were exciting. Yes, there were slugfests in there, for sure, 443 00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:53,760 Speaker 4: but Oklahoma Alabama was a great game. It was a 444 00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:59,080 Speaker 4: great game. And now it is two programs that are 445 00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:04,239 Speaker 4: kind of looking in the mirror former staff members at 446 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:07,359 Speaker 4: each school going against the school that didn't give them 447 00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:10,400 Speaker 4: perhaps opportunity to I shouldn't say that, I think both 448 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:12,560 Speaker 4: of them probably. You know, Calen de Boorr obviously was 449 00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:15,560 Speaker 4: given opportunity elsewhere and went and took it and left Bloomington. 450 00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:18,200 Speaker 4: And then the same with Kurt Signetti. I know a 451 00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:21,040 Speaker 4: lot is made of Kurt Signetti was at Alabama for 452 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:22,720 Speaker 4: four years and never got the chance to move up 453 00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:24,200 Speaker 4: to head coach. I mean they had a guy named 454 00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:28,200 Speaker 4: Nick Saban there that was decent, right, but nonetheless Indiana 455 00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:33,760 Speaker 4: Alabama crazy as it sounds, New Year's Rose Bull and 456 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:36,119 Speaker 4: basketball to talk about us, well, Don Fisher will be 457 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:37,720 Speaker 4: the guy on the mic for both and he joins 458 00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:39,720 Speaker 4: us next again, we are at that time of year 459 00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 4: where it is you know, I shouldn't say this because 460 00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:47,960 Speaker 4: you know I was going to say, well where again 461 00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:50,960 Speaker 4: at that time of year where basketball and football season 462 00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:53,359 Speaker 4: for Indiana, And then I have to remind myself that 463 00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:56,560 Speaker 4: like going into the holiday week, to have the football 464 00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:59,800 Speaker 4: team still be playing games while the basketball team is 465 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:02,800 Speaker 4: geting said for the Big Ten slate is not necessarily 466 00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:04,959 Speaker 4: customary over the last couple of decades, but it has 467 00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:07,239 Speaker 4: been the last couple of years. And joining us now, 468 00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:09,679 Speaker 4: the guy that has been on the microphone for all 469 00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:11,800 Speaker 4: of it, Don Fisher, joins us on the Java House 470 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,480 Speaker 4: Peel and Port guest line. Don the last one tonight, 471 00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:17,520 Speaker 4: six o'clock tonight for the basketball side of things. That 472 00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:20,480 Speaker 4: game can be heard on our sister station, WBC. It 473 00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:24,000 Speaker 4: is Indiana and Sienna. This is the last battle before 474 00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:26,360 Speaker 4: they get into Big Ten play, and I do want 475 00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:29,520 Speaker 4: to talk obviously football, but let's begin basketball wise, and 476 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:32,480 Speaker 4: we got into this a little bit last week, and 477 00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:35,720 Speaker 4: that is just if there's an area or a thing 478 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:37,960 Speaker 4: that you think perhaps Daren Debrees looks at with this 479 00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:42,520 Speaker 4: roster and says the intrigue or the area that I 480 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:45,720 Speaker 4: need to solidify now or work in this game with 481 00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:48,359 Speaker 4: Sienna before going into Big Ten play, what would be 482 00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:51,720 Speaker 4: the question mark, if you will, that still hangs for him. 483 00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:55,320 Speaker 9: Well, I think more than anything right now, they're still 484 00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:57,960 Speaker 9: trying to figure out the rebounding area, which has been 485 00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 9: a troubled spot throughout the season in some respects, not dramatically. 486 00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:06,720 Speaker 9: In Indiana's won their share of games that rebounding with 487 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:09,280 Speaker 9: or better than the team that they're playing against. But again, 488 00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:12,760 Speaker 9: competition has something to do with that. But I think 489 00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:15,359 Speaker 9: the biggest concern that he has right now is his 490 00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:19,040 Speaker 9: ball club's ability to rebound the ball at both ends 491 00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:23,080 Speaker 9: of the floor, but specifically the offensive end a little 492 00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:25,880 Speaker 9: bit more so because they just haven't gotten a lot 493 00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:29,119 Speaker 9: of offensive rebounds throughout the year. And one of the 494 00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:32,720 Speaker 9: reasons they haven't they're an undersized basketball team compared to 495 00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:34,480 Speaker 9: a lot of these teams that they are about to 496 00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:38,280 Speaker 9: play face, especially in the Big ten, and so I 497 00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:40,400 Speaker 9: know that that's one area that they're working on, but 498 00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:43,280 Speaker 9: they're working on a little bit of everything at this juncture. 499 00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:47,040 Speaker 9: This is a team still that's not one hundred percent 500 00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:50,480 Speaker 9: in the norm of having been around for a long time, 501 00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:53,360 Speaker 9: having all that kind of experience together and so on. 502 00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:55,760 Speaker 9: So which is a case for a lot of teams 503 00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:58,760 Speaker 9: these days, as we know, with the rosters changing hands 504 00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 9: with nil and all those kinds of things. But I 505 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:04,520 Speaker 9: think rebounding is the biggest area of concern right now. 506 00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:07,240 Speaker 9: And you know, when Sam Alexis went down to that 507 00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 9: Kentucky game a little over a week ago, there was 508 00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:13,920 Speaker 9: a real holding of the breath by the entire program 509 00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:17,960 Speaker 9: because Sam, of course is an undersized post player, but 510 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:20,640 Speaker 9: he's six', eight he's, athletic and he's one of the 511 00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:23,920 Speaker 9: two guys they count on in that post position and 512 00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 9: Read bailey being the other and read out a really 513 00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:29,600 Speaker 9: good game Against siena the other. Night but the thing 514 00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:31,720 Speaker 9: about it is they just don't have much depth. There 515 00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:33,800 Speaker 9: and if the A lexus had gone down with a 516 00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:37,040 Speaker 9: serious knee, injury which could have, happened he got lucky 517 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:39,640 Speaker 9: in the sense that it looked like there was going 518 00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:42,520 Speaker 9: to be AN acl tear there if it hadn't happened 519 00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:44,400 Speaker 9: the way it, did which was a turn to ankle, 520 00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:48,800 Speaker 9: first and that apparently saved HIS. Acl that's WHAT i was. 521 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:51,600 Speaker 9: Told so ALL i can tell you is they are light. 522 00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:54,880 Speaker 9: There they're definitely needing more, depth and that's hard to come. 523 00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:57,400 Speaker 9: By when you don't you can't change your roster now 524 00:29:57,600 --> 00:29:57,840 Speaker 9: if you. 525 00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:00,480 Speaker 4: Know WHAT i, mean sure he done tell. You what's 526 00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:03,520 Speaker 4: to me becomes, intriguing is you, know with the size 527 00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:05,280 Speaker 4: of The Big ten now, RIGHT i, mean with the 528 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:07,560 Speaker 4: fact of the number of different teams that you, have 529 00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:12,640 Speaker 4: theoretically you're going to see stylistically a number of different 530 00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 4: ways that you've got to play within the. CONFERENCE i, 531 00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:17,040 Speaker 4: mean you have teams that want to play in different. 532 00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:19,920 Speaker 4: Fashion two ways to look at. That one is to, 533 00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:23,200 Speaker 4: say we have a, style this is how we, play 534 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:25,960 Speaker 4: and we're going to push in on. That the other 535 00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:29,440 Speaker 4: is to develop a system where you can have some 536 00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:32,360 Speaker 4: versatility and kind of change the way that you. Play 537 00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:36,200 Speaker 4: which way do you see this particular Team it Is 538 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:39,760 Speaker 4: devrezemore of The Bob knight mold of this is how 539 00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:42,120 Speaker 4: we play and that's, it or do they have some 540 00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:45,120 Speaker 4: flexibility on different styles they can. 541 00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:48,000 Speaker 9: PLAY i don't think they've got a lot of flexibility 542 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:48,280 Speaker 9: with this. 543 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:49,360 Speaker 4: TEAM i just. 544 00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:52,880 Speaker 9: DON'T i think the talent is good enough to be 545 00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:56,440 Speaker 9: very competitive in The Big. TEN i don't think that 546 00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:59,240 Speaker 9: they have the talent to be a ball club that 547 00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:02,400 Speaker 9: plays all half. Court in other, words they like to 548 00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:05,520 Speaker 9: get out and. Run they are a transition. Team they 549 00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:07,440 Speaker 9: try to get off a three point shot in the 550 00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:10,360 Speaker 9: first ten to twelve seconds of the shot clock before 551 00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:12,680 Speaker 9: they set up in a half court. Game and that's 552 00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:16,760 Speaker 9: the modus operendi of their team most of the. Time 553 00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:19,040 Speaker 9: but they've had to play a lot of half court this, 554 00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:21,760 Speaker 9: year especially against some of these better teams that they've. 555 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:24,800 Speaker 9: Played and if they can speed teams up and make 556 00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:26,720 Speaker 9: them play the way they want, to THEN i think 557 00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:30,200 Speaker 9: they can be very. Successful it's hard to do that, sometimes, 558 00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:32,240 Speaker 9: however with some of the teams that you play in this. 559 00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:34,600 Speaker 9: League and you know that a lot of these ball 560 00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:37,880 Speaker 9: clubs like to play the half court game first and 561 00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:40,200 Speaker 9: not rely on a three point shot all the, time 562 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,520 Speaker 9: and that's What indiana. Does they, do rely on three 563 00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:46,200 Speaker 9: point shooting a great deal that's how this roster was. 564 00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:49,320 Speaker 9: Constructed Darren debries wanted to get as many good three 565 00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:52,160 Speaker 9: point shooters as he could on this, team and he's 566 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:54,840 Speaker 9: gotten three of. Them, obviously his Son tucker's very. Good 567 00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:58,240 Speaker 9: Lamar wilkerson is a proven a three point, guy And 568 00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:00,680 Speaker 9: Nick doran has come off the bench out the last 569 00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:03,400 Speaker 9: several ball games is really shot well from the three 570 00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:06,160 Speaker 9: point line once he got back from. Injury SO i 571 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:09,720 Speaker 9: just don't see a lot of ability to change the 572 00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:12,280 Speaker 9: way they want to. Play and if you looked at 573 00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:16,280 Speaker 9: the game Against Chicago state On, Saturday indiana shot lights 574 00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:18,720 Speaker 9: out fourteen to twenty six in the first half of 575 00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:21,040 Speaker 9: the three point. Line that was in the first twenty. 576 00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:23,280 Speaker 9: Minutes in the second, half they couldn't throw it in the. 577 00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:26,200 Speaker 9: Ocean they were one to twenty from the three point. 578 00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:28,800 Speaker 9: Line and then they relied on their bigs because the 579 00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:31,160 Speaker 9: team that they went up, Against Chicago, state didn't have 580 00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:33,880 Speaker 9: a great deal of strength in the front. Line so 581 00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:37,880 Speaker 9: they were able to succumb or to Make Chicago states 582 00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:41,520 Speaker 9: to come to their wishes in that contest Because Chicago 583 00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:42,880 Speaker 9: state just didn't have any size. 584 00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:45,760 Speaker 4: Themselves Don fisher is my guest voice of The Indiana, 585 00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:48,200 Speaker 4: hoosiers both on the basketball and football side of.

THAT i thought 639 00:35:33,880 --> 00:35:36,000 Speaker 9: both of them would come in there ready for. Bear 640 00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:39,640 Speaker 9: they hadn't had the long spell off Like indiana's having 641 00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:42,600 Speaker 9: right now to get ready for this for the ball, 642 00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:45,400 Speaker 9: game and they played each other.

Contest BUT i was rooting 645 00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:53,880 Speaker 9: That alabama would win BECAUSE i felt like that's the 646 00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:57,400 Speaker 9: opponent that want TO i want to see our football 647 00:35:57,440 --> 00:36:01,960 Speaker 9: team play.

YEARS i Think caylen De, boor who's their, 650 00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:10,440 Speaker 9: coach is a guy WHO i revere as a guy 651 00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:14,080 Speaker 9: that came To indiana for the twenty twenty season as 652 00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:16,880 Speaker 9: the offensive. Coordinator he got ruined BY, covid but it 653 00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:19,880 Speaker 9: didn't Ruin indiana season because they went six and through that, 654 00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:23,080 Speaker 9: year and it was Because caitlin De boor was such 655 00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:26,520 Speaker 9: a good innovator from an offensive, standpoint and of course 656 00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:29,400 Speaker 9: he had control Of Michael pennix who went with him 657 00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:32,480 Speaker 9: To washington later, on and obviously they went to The 658 00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:35,560 Speaker 9: national championship.

Else the coaches of which you, 681 00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:44,239 Speaker 4: mentioned did you get a chance to know them much 682 00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:46,239 Speaker 4: or did all of those factors kind of come in 683 00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:48,719 Speaker 4: where you were aware of, them but you didn't get 684 00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:49,560 Speaker 4: a lot of interaction with. 685 00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:53,200 Speaker 9: Them, well had we had decent interaction with, them because 686 00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:56,320 Speaker 9: let's face, it there were no crowds to worry about. 687 00:37:57,320 --> 00:38:00,920 Speaker 9: There nobody was coming to games except for. Parents we 688 00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:04,040 Speaker 9: had a chance to get out and watch practices and 689 00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:07,440 Speaker 9: things like that because everything was so shut down at 690 00:38:07,480 --> 00:38:10,279 Speaker 9: the time and you were looking for ways to get 691 00:38:10,360 --> 00:38:13,040 Speaker 9: outside and do, Things and so we did have a 692 00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:17,160 Speaker 9: chance to Watch indiana football a little bit closer maybe 693 00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:19,279 Speaker 9: than we would, otherwise and get to know some of 694 00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:21,600 Speaker 9: these guys a little bit better in a very short 695 00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:25,279 Speaker 9: period of. Time so, yeah those guys were really good. 696 00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:28,160 Speaker 9: PEOPLE i like them a. LOT i think they've taken 697 00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:31,239 Speaker 9: over This alabama program and struggled just the, hair but 698 00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:33,960 Speaker 9: it's Still, alabama as everybody. 699 00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:36,960 Speaker 4: Knows AND i just look forward. 700 00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:39,799 Speaker 9: To seeing these guys and shaking their hand and congratulating 701 00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:41,800 Speaker 9: them on making the, playoffs just Like indiana. 702 00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:45,480 Speaker 4: Has do you have concerned on or intrigue maybe is 703 00:38:45,520 --> 00:38:48,560 Speaker 4: the better word about the layoff from An indiana, Standpoint 704 00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:50,960 Speaker 4: not because Of, indiana but if you, look you know 705 00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:53,120 Speaker 4: by president a year, ago what happened to the teams 706 00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:56,080 Speaker 4: that had time?

Playoffs how do you Think indiana handles that? 708 00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:04,279 Speaker 9: Well the REASON i think they can handle it is 709 00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:08,080 Speaker 9: because their coach Is Kurt. Signetti he just doesn't let 710 00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:12,480 Speaker 9: things go by the. Wayside OR i, mean their practices 711 00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:15,560 Speaker 9: have been light at this point in time of, year 712 00:39:15,640 --> 00:39:17,400 Speaker 9: so he's given these guys a lot of time to 713 00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:20,360 Speaker 9: get healed, up to get the bumps and bruises and 714 00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:23,040 Speaker 9: scrapes and all those kinds of things healed. Over but 715 00:39:23,160 --> 00:39:25,879 Speaker 9: at the same time he works his team and when 716 00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:27,800 Speaker 9: they get out, there they may not go, long but 717 00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:30,200 Speaker 9: they go hard when they get on the football, field 718 00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:35,200 Speaker 9: AND i JUST i know he knows how to handle 719 00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:38,200 Speaker 9: this to some. Degree Although i'm not sure anybody has 720 00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:40,240 Speaker 9: ever had a three and a half week layoff before 721 00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:43,680 Speaker 9: their first game after finishing out a regular, season so 722 00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:47,840 Speaker 9: from that perspective it is.

Playing we'll see what they do on the offensive. 885 00:49:26,920 --> 00:49:30,120 Speaker 8: Line so that that's the main, thing Is bucks, back 886 00:49:30,920 --> 00:49:35,080 Speaker 8: and it gives them a much better chance to play decent. 887 00:49:35,160 --> 00:49:38,759 Speaker 4: Defense So ryman is, back though correct with the. Nail 888 00:49:39,600 --> 00:49:39,840 Speaker 4: he is. 889 00:49:39,920 --> 00:49:44,320 Speaker 8: Out he said he's, Out he practiced limited whatever the. 890 00:49:44,920 --> 00:49:47,560 Speaker 8: Day the wee from has that Best, saturday but they 891 00:49:47,640 --> 00:49:53,640 Speaker 8: really out he's he's not. Playing uh it's so they're 892 00:49:53,640 --> 00:49:55,439 Speaker 8: gonna have to mix a match on the offensive, line 893 00:49:55,440 --> 00:49:57,640 Speaker 8: and it comes against the team that's got sixteen, facts 894 00:49:58,320 --> 00:50:01,560 Speaker 8: which is the worst in the league by a handful of. 895 00:50:01,760 --> 00:50:05,560 Speaker 8: Sexs so hopefully they'll be able to Protect rivers and 896 00:50:05,640 --> 00:50:10,120 Speaker 8: let him play the position better than they did the first. 897 00:50:10,160 --> 00:50:13,080 Speaker 4: Game Chapter you anticipate over the course of the, week 898 00:50:13,200 --> 00:50:15,800 Speaker 4: Did Shane stiken tip his hand in any way in this, 899 00:50:16,120 --> 00:50:21,080 Speaker 4: area MEANING i actually, thought and Maybe i'm in the minority, 900 00:50:21,160 --> 00:50:24,600 Speaker 4: HERE i Thought Shane stikeen in That seattle game might 901 00:50:24,640 --> 00:50:28,120 Speaker 4: have turned in his best coaching performance of the. Year because, 902 00:50:28,360 --> 00:50:30,840 Speaker 4: YES i realized they did not win that, game but 903 00:50:31,160 --> 00:50:34,600 Speaker 4: given all of the variables of going into the quarterback 904 00:50:34,680 --> 00:50:37,080 Speaker 4: play and et, CETERA i thought he called a very 905 00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:40,680 Speaker 4: smart game for feeling it out and getting a feel 906 00:50:40,920 --> 00:50:43,759 Speaker 4: for what they had In Philip rivers and keeping them in. 907 00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:50,399 Speaker 4: Contention does did we see everything that that relationship has 908 00:50:50,520 --> 00:50:53,160 Speaker 4: to offer or do you Think steichen has more in the? 909 00:50:53,239 --> 00:50:55,520 Speaker 4: Bag did He did he tip his hand in any 910 00:50:55,560 --> 00:50:55,800 Speaker 4: way on? 911 00:50:55,920 --> 00:50:55,960 Speaker 1: That? 912 00:50:57,000 --> 00:51:00,080 Speaker 8: Well there needs to be. More, FIRST i put on 913 00:51:00,160 --> 00:51:02,640 Speaker 8: social media after the game THAT i had Got styke 914 00:51:02,680 --> 00:51:10,000 Speaker 8: And ando through almost the perfect. Game you're head sixteen 915 00:51:10,040 --> 00:51:11,880 Speaker 8: to fifteen with forty seconds to go and the other 916 00:51:11,920 --> 00:51:15,719 Speaker 8: teams on their thirty seven no, TIMEOUTS i mean with 917 00:51:16,320 --> 00:51:19,640 Speaker 8: and again taken into account all your personnel, limitations and 918 00:51:19,800 --> 00:51:24,840 Speaker 8: there were, Plenty SO i, thought, yes they squeezed every 919 00:51:25,040 --> 00:51:28,239 Speaker 8: ounce out of what they could. Do it just in 920 00:51:28,320 --> 00:51:32,200 Speaker 8: the indus wasn't, enough you, KNOW a not a good 921 00:51:32,280 --> 00:51:37,200 Speaker 8: enough kickoff after the field, goal and then two plays 922 00:51:37,360 --> 00:51:41,440 Speaker 8: That Sam dartle made that if you stop either one 923 00:51:41,520 --> 00:51:43,840 Speaker 8: have been, bounds you probably win the. Game SO i, 924 00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:46,320 Speaker 8: thought considering, everything, yes it was his best, game but 925 00:51:46,440 --> 00:51:48,840 Speaker 8: there's got to be. More it's just you Can't and 926 00:51:48,960 --> 00:51:52,320 Speaker 8: they know. That they know that was so specific to, 927 00:51:53,600 --> 00:51:55,759 Speaker 8: well he's been here three days and you know he 928 00:51:56,120 --> 00:51:58,840 Speaker 8: hasn't played for five. Years they really had to have 929 00:51:59,239 --> 00:52:04,440 Speaker 8: a dumbed down game. Plan they just. Did and but 930 00:52:04,600 --> 00:52:07,440 Speaker 8: having said, that it's got to be it's there's got 931 00:52:07,480 --> 00:52:09,840 Speaker 8: to be. More he averaged four point four yards and 932 00:52:09,840 --> 00:52:14,040 Speaker 8: an attempt like six yards of, completion and all that 933 00:52:14,200 --> 00:52:17,160 Speaker 8: does when you've got to run the ball With Jonathan, 934 00:52:17,239 --> 00:52:19,440 Speaker 8: taylor all that does is make it harder to run 935 00:52:19,480 --> 00:52:22,040 Speaker 8: the ball With john jon And. Taylor so you've got 936 00:52:22,640 --> 00:52:25,760 Speaker 8: you've got you, Know Alec, pears who leads the league 937 00:52:25,760 --> 00:52:28,840 Speaker 8: in yards for. Catch you've you've got to stretch the 938 00:52:28,920 --> 00:52:32,439 Speaker 8: field some at least at least pose the, threat WHICH 939 00:52:32,480 --> 00:52:35,879 Speaker 8: i think they, will but they're still Gonna they ran 940 00:52:35,960 --> 00:52:38,600 Speaker 8: more than they threw last week by a. FEW i 941 00:52:38,760 --> 00:52:41,600 Speaker 8: think they still run more this. Week they have, to 942 00:52:42,600 --> 00:52:46,320 Speaker 8: but and this is A niners defense that's that's. Kuttable 943 00:52:46,960 --> 00:52:50,600 Speaker 8: they're they're not strong against the. Run and again the 944 00:52:50,680 --> 00:52:54,719 Speaker 8: pass rush should be not super bad with perhaps you 945 00:52:54,800 --> 00:52:58,399 Speaker 8: know not not perhaps the two backup. Tackles but, yes 946 00:52:58,760 --> 00:53:00,920 Speaker 8: and and and we've off To shane enough to know 947 00:53:01,040 --> 00:53:03,920 Speaker 8: that there has to be. MORE i Think rivers will be. 948 00:53:04,200 --> 00:53:06,520 Speaker 8: More you, know this was a normal week For Philip 949 00:53:06,560 --> 00:53:08,719 Speaker 8: rivers to where you come, in you get all these 950 00:53:08,800 --> 00:53:11,320 Speaker 8: days for pared last week was not, normal, right it 951 00:53:11,440 --> 00:53:15,239 Speaker 8: comes in he's. Cramming so, yes there needs to be, 952 00:53:15,360 --> 00:53:17,000 Speaker 8: more AND i think there will be. 953 00:53:17,120 --> 00:53:20,759 Speaker 4: More did you see did you see In Rivers chap 954 00:53:21,840 --> 00:53:24,800 Speaker 4: more that could be? There in other, words did you 955 00:53:25,480 --> 00:53:27,560 Speaker 4: know WHAT i? Mean, LIKE i understand that they had 956 00:53:27,560 --> 00:53:30,040 Speaker 4: to kind of simple it down because of exactly. That, 957 00:53:30,160 --> 00:53:32,759 Speaker 4: right you're just throwing it out. There but now that 958 00:53:32,840 --> 00:53:34,480 Speaker 4: he's had that, week and now that maybe they can, 959 00:53:34,640 --> 00:53:36,400 Speaker 4: ent you, know look at more, film go over some. 960 00:53:36,480 --> 00:53:40,239 Speaker 4: Differ do you feel that from a physical standpoint or 961 00:53:40,320 --> 00:53:43,960 Speaker 4: a skill set standpoint in twenty twenty five that there 962 00:53:44,160 --> 00:53:45,920 Speaker 4: is more there that can tap into With Philip? 963 00:53:46,000 --> 00:53:49,680 Speaker 8: Rivers boy and it if it's a yes or, No 964 00:53:49,840 --> 00:53:52,680 Speaker 8: i'd say. NO i mean it's the same guy it's 965 00:53:52,719 --> 00:53:58,640 Speaker 8: the same forty four year old. Arm maybe he recognizes things, 966 00:53:58,719 --> 00:54:01,879 Speaker 8: Quicker but as far as getting the ball from POINT 967 00:54:01,960 --> 00:54:06,759 Speaker 8: a to POINT b quicker with more. VELOCITY i think 968 00:54:06,840 --> 00:54:10,040 Speaker 8: getting it there quicker would be recognizing the play. QUICKER 969 00:54:10,960 --> 00:54:12,560 Speaker 8: i don't think all of a, sudden he's gonna start 970 00:54:12,600 --> 00:54:15,399 Speaker 8: throwing lasers all over the field. TONIGHT i just that's, 971 00:54:15,680 --> 00:54:19,200 Speaker 8: first that's not who he was when he, played you, 972 00:54:19,280 --> 00:54:22,160 Speaker 8: know at the right, Age so that that but that's 973 00:54:22,160 --> 00:54:24,360 Speaker 8: a that's a great. Question you can devise all the 974 00:54:24,440 --> 00:54:27,640 Speaker 8: game plans you, want and if the quarterback can't carry, 975 00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:31,239 Speaker 8: that can't make the. Throw if you, can't you, can 976 00:54:31,400 --> 00:54:33,200 Speaker 8: you can block it up to where you've got time 977 00:54:33,719 --> 00:54:36,279 Speaker 8: to get the ball sixty yards fifty yards down field the. 978 00:54:36,320 --> 00:54:38,840 Speaker 8: Piers but the quarterback back can't do, it then what 979 00:54:38,920 --> 00:54:42,000 Speaker 8: are you doing? That that's a really good. Point we'll find. 980 00:54:42,040 --> 00:54:46,080 Speaker 8: OUT i think that whether he can or, not they're 981 00:54:46,120 --> 00:54:49,960 Speaker 8: going to. Try they need to. Try but but that's 982 00:54:50,160 --> 00:54:52,200 Speaker 8: what we're going to see one another. Week and, again 983 00:54:53,040 --> 00:54:55,800 Speaker 8: maybe part of it with the throwing is that his 984 00:54:56,040 --> 00:54:58,960 Speaker 8: legs weren't under him as they shouldn't have. Been as 985 00:54:59,000 --> 00:55:02,799 Speaker 8: far you, know the quarterbacks their legs to throw off 986 00:55:02,840 --> 00:55:05,719 Speaker 8: of and really push off. Of and maybe he's a 987 00:55:05,800 --> 00:55:10,120 Speaker 8: lot better this, week but they simply have To they've 988 00:55:10,200 --> 00:55:12,680 Speaker 8: got to do more than they. Did him throwing for 989 00:55:12,680 --> 00:55:14,640 Speaker 8: one hundred and twenty yards isn't going to cut. It 990 00:55:15,040 --> 00:55:19,840 Speaker 8: it's NOT jt averaging six three point six might be 991 00:55:20,000 --> 00:55:23,160 Speaker 8: okay running the. Ball if you're getting more from the pass, 992 00:55:23,200 --> 00:55:26,480 Speaker 8: game that'll be a really interesting thing to Watch. Sniders 993 00:55:27,239 --> 00:55:28,560 Speaker 8: one one will they try? 994 00:55:28,640 --> 00:55:29,120 Speaker 7: It and? 995 00:55:29,239 --> 00:55:30,360 Speaker 8: Two Can rivers do it? 996 00:55:30,640 --> 00:55:33,200 Speaker 4: Well AND i, thought you, know obviously they went with 997 00:55:33,880 --> 00:55:36,400 Speaker 4: a Mere abdullah out of the backfield with the passing, 998 00:55:36,440 --> 00:55:40,040 Speaker 4: game which IS i would assume that part of that 999 00:55:40,320 --> 00:55:43,879 Speaker 4: was just to Allow rivers kind of the comfort, level 1000 00:55:43,960 --> 00:55:47,279 Speaker 4: the familiarity with the. Layups do we. Continue do you 1001 00:55:47,360 --> 00:55:48,880 Speaker 4: believe to See abdullah at that? 1002 00:55:49,040 --> 00:55:52,879 Speaker 8: LEVEL i think, so because, again you, know IF jt 1003 00:55:53,040 --> 00:55:55,840 Speaker 8: runs the ball twenty five, times you, know AND i 1004 00:55:55,960 --> 00:55:59,759 Speaker 8: realized he's he prepares for this and all, this but 1005 00:56:00,040 --> 00:56:01,440 Speaker 8: at some point you do need to give him a. 1006 00:56:01,520 --> 00:56:05,120 Speaker 8: Breather And abdulla is a better receiver out of the 1007 00:56:05,160 --> 00:56:07,279 Speaker 8: back Of he simply, is and that's. 1008 00:56:07,320 --> 00:56:09,160 Speaker 4: It And rivers has always had a guy like, that 1009 00:56:09,400 --> 00:56:13,319 Speaker 4: Right he's always had a bailout out of backfield guy Darren. 1010 00:56:13,400 --> 00:56:16,040 Speaker 8: SPROLLS i mean, goodness. Crations how many times had he 1011 00:56:16,560 --> 00:56:21,799 Speaker 8: Tormented colts with? Rivers so, yeah no question. Again if 1012 00:56:21,840 --> 00:56:25,400 Speaker 8: there's thirty rushes again this, week twenty five need to BE. 1013 00:56:26,600 --> 00:56:33,839 Speaker 8: Jt but Get abdullah involved the past game and hit 1014 00:56:33,920 --> 00:56:36,799 Speaker 8: those underneath crossers and then you, know but you got 1015 00:56:36,880 --> 00:56:39,440 Speaker 8: to get everybody more. Involved Tyler warren has disappeared in 1016 00:56:39,440 --> 00:56:41,680 Speaker 8: the last three or four, games and that's not a 1017 00:56:41,719 --> 00:56:44,480 Speaker 8: reflection on. Him it's a reflection on the rest of 1018 00:56:45,000 --> 00:56:48,719 Speaker 8: or how the quarterback play has has declined with the 1019 00:56:48,840 --> 00:56:51,839 Speaker 8: injuries To jones and Then rivers coming. In they've got 1020 00:56:51,920 --> 00:56:54,960 Speaker 8: to get back to the players who carry, them who 1021 00:56:55,040 --> 00:56:58,840 Speaker 8: have carried, them which IS jt And Tyler warren for 1022 00:56:58,960 --> 00:57:02,399 Speaker 8: the most. Part hopefully they can they can scratch into 1023 00:57:02,440 --> 00:57:09,600 Speaker 8: that tonight because they're gonna you. Can't you can't win, sixteen, eighteen, 1024 00:57:09,800 --> 00:57:12,000 Speaker 8: nineteen but they're one six this. Year when they don't 1025 00:57:12,000 --> 00:57:14,719 Speaker 8: when they score twenty or fewer and they've lost WHAT 1026 00:57:14,800 --> 00:57:16,840 Speaker 8: i THINK i looked it, up they've lost eleven straight 1027 00:57:17,560 --> 00:57:21,200 Speaker 8: and twenty four twenty seven when they going to score 1028 00:57:21,280 --> 00:57:24,880 Speaker 8: more than twenty so in TODAY'S, nfl And i'm telling 1029 00:57:24,920 --> 00:57:26,960 Speaker 8: you that The niners are going to score twenty. Points 1030 00:57:27,240 --> 00:57:30,520 Speaker 8: they just. Are so you got to score and hopefully they. 1031 00:57:30,600 --> 00:57:33,480 Speaker 8: Can they can get the quarterback first in the position 1032 00:57:33,640 --> 00:57:37,480 Speaker 8: to do that and then he's able to execute the game. 1033 00:57:37,520 --> 00:57:41,200 Speaker 4: Plan Chap here's a question That Mike chapples my guest 1034 00:57:41,280 --> 00:57:44,720 Speaker 4: TO cbs FOUR wxa On fox fifty nine where you see. 1035 00:57:44,760 --> 00:57:46,640 Speaker 4: Him he's on The Java house peeling poor guest.

Products Chap here's a question 1038 00:57:55,600 --> 00:57:58,440 Speaker 4: that typically there is a more slam dunk answer at 1039 00:57:58,560 --> 00:58:00,800 Speaker 4: this point in the, year But i'm going to ask 1040 00:58:00,920 --> 00:58:02,280 Speaker 4: it and then think about it and give me an. 1041 00:58:02,280 --> 00:58:05,080 Speaker 4: Answer you're. Ready who's the best team in THE Nfl? 1042 00:58:06,560 --> 00:58:08,000 Speaker 4: RAMS i think? 1043 00:58:08,040 --> 00:58:08,080 Speaker 6: So? 1044 00:58:08,320 --> 00:58:09,480 Speaker 4: HUH i think? 1045 00:58:09,560 --> 00:58:09,600 Speaker 7: So. 1046 00:58:09,840 --> 00:58:14,000 Speaker 8: YEAH i still lost the other. NIGHT i think they're 1047 00:58:14,040 --> 00:58:16,800 Speaker 8: pretty dark on Good AND i tell, you If Matthew 1048 00:58:16,840 --> 00:58:21,160 Speaker 8: stafford wins AN, mvp which he probably will probably and 1049 00:58:21,400 --> 00:58:24,760 Speaker 8: gets to The Super bowl wins another, one he will 1050 00:58:24,760 --> 00:58:28,240 Speaker 8: be a Slam Dunk hall Of. Famer he's probably there, 1051 00:58:28,320 --> 00:58:32,480 Speaker 8: anyway BUT i think he's been one of the more 1052 00:58:33,400 --> 00:58:36,720 Speaker 8: underappreciated players over the course of his career because he, 1053 00:58:36,840 --> 00:58:42,480 Speaker 8: was you, know dying In. Detroit, YEAH i think they're pretty. 1054 00:58:42,520 --> 00:58:47,040 Speaker 4: Good yeah They and you, know there are only a 1055 00:58:47,160 --> 00:58:49,320 Speaker 4: handful of teams that you would say this about or 1056 00:58:49,480 --> 00:58:52,200 Speaker 4: quarterbacks that you would say this about right. Now but 1057 00:58:52,320 --> 00:58:54,320 Speaker 4: the thing about The rams is that game you're talking, 1058 00:58:54,320 --> 00:58:56,200 Speaker 4: about which the other night was one of the one 1059 00:58:56,240 --> 00:58:58,080 Speaker 4: of the best regular season games you're going to see 1060 00:58:58,080 --> 00:59:02,320 Speaker 4: in THE. Nfl it was. Fabulous But stafford is one 1061 00:59:02,320 --> 00:59:04,280 Speaker 4: of those that you give him The when that guy 1062 00:59:04,360 --> 00:59:06,040 Speaker 4: trots out on the field and you look at his 1063 00:59:06,160 --> 00:59:08,920 Speaker 4: eyes inside of the last two, minutes you, go, yeah good. 1064 00:59:09,000 --> 00:59:12,120 Speaker 4: Luck you know WHAT i.

DEFENSE i don't 1069 00:59:24,760 --> 00:59:27,960 Speaker 8: trust that defense at. ALL i do, Not BUT i 1070 00:59:28,080 --> 00:59:31,320 Speaker 8: Trust Josh. ALLEN i just he's gonna if you let 1071 00:59:31,400 --> 00:59:34,080 Speaker 8: him hang, around he's gonna beach in the fourth. Quarter 1072 00:59:34,160 --> 00:59:37,600 Speaker 8: he just is with all with all the, deficiencies and 1073 00:59:37,680 --> 00:59:39,920 Speaker 8: he doesn't have doesn't have great, weapons but he's got 1074 00:59:40,160 --> 00:59:43,520 Speaker 8: a really good running game With cook who who right 1075 00:59:43,560 --> 00:59:45,920 Speaker 8: now is the head OF jt in the league.

One and this is going 1088 01:00:27,480 --> 01:00:29,240 Speaker 4: to segue to another Team i'm talking about because it 1089 01:00:29,280 --> 01:00:31,960 Speaker 4: does tie into The.

It the ball is, There it's 1109 01:01:27,200 --> 01:01:30,480 Speaker 8: where it needs to, be in the right. Spot he's 1110 01:01:30,520 --> 01:01:33,040 Speaker 8: got just enough talent around. Him the running game is pretty. 1111 01:01:33,040 --> 01:01:36,040 Speaker 8: Good the running game can be pretty dominant if they 1112 01:01:36,080 --> 01:01:38,680 Speaker 8: want it to. Be but they've got you got tight, 1113 01:01:38,840 --> 01:01:42,640 Speaker 8: ends they got receivers making. Plays the defense is pretty. 1114 01:01:42,680 --> 01:01:47,440 Speaker 8: Good they're probably maybe a year ahead of schedule on 1115 01:01:47,880 --> 01:01:51,320 Speaker 8: maybe where people thought they might be with, everything but 1116 01:01:51,800 --> 01:01:53,960 Speaker 8: you don't win that many games and put yourself in 1117 01:01:54,000 --> 01:01:57,240 Speaker 8: that position to win the division just by, luck by 1118 01:01:57,320 --> 01:02:01,320 Speaker 8: falling into. It so, yeah they're pretty. GOOD i still 1119 01:02:01,400 --> 01:02:05,240 Speaker 8: Like buffalo because of the. QUARTERBACK i just.

Fourteen you cannot win that, 1126 01:02:26,200 --> 01:02:30,600 Speaker 8: game yet they. Did so that quarterback gives you the. 1127 01:02:30,720 --> 01:02:33,080 Speaker 8: Chance and the guys we've talked, about those quarterbacks give 1128 01:02:33,120 --> 01:02:33,600 Speaker 8: me a, Chance. 1129 01:02:34,360 --> 01:02:38,800 Speaker 4: Chap when you look at THE afc right, now the 1130 01:02:38,880 --> 01:02:42,720 Speaker 4: guy that you talk, About Peyton manning and you And 1131 01:02:42,800 --> 01:02:44,880 Speaker 4: i've discussed this And i've said it on the radio 1132 01:02:44,920 --> 01:02:50,200 Speaker 4: one thousand.

Different, NO i still think there's 1202 01:06:35,880 --> 01:06:40,480 Speaker 8: that BUZZ i. Do and part of that is Where i'm. 1203 01:06:40,680 --> 01:06:44,400 Speaker 8: Ingrained is all the times The colts were On Monday 1204 01:06:44,480 --> 01:06:47,560 Speaker 8: night during that great two, thousand a couple of times a, 1205 01:06:47,680 --> 01:06:51,960 Speaker 8: year and great games and special. Games you, know they've 1206 01:06:52,000 --> 01:06:55,200 Speaker 8: but they they've. Lost they've lost four or five in 1207 01:06:55,240 --> 01:06:57,120 Speaker 8: a row On Monday, night and some of them haven't 1208 01:06:57,120 --> 01:07:01,800 Speaker 8: been very. Attractive but, still this is WHERE i think 1209 01:07:01,840 --> 01:07:04,160 Speaker 8: you AND i, agree but a lot of the fan 1210 01:07:04,240 --> 01:07:08,800 Speaker 8: base may. Not is is the value that the community 1211 01:07:08,960 --> 01:07:12,480 Speaker 8: value of Having Monday night with all the cut, up you, 1212 01:07:12,520 --> 01:07:16,160 Speaker 8: know the lead ins and breakouts of the, broadcast with 1213 01:07:16,640 --> 01:07:21,080 Speaker 8: with sites From. Indianapolis The chamber Of commerce can't pay 1214 01:07:21,200 --> 01:07:25,240 Speaker 8: for that kind of advertisement and, Visibility SO i think it's. 1215 01:07:25,280 --> 01:07:27,080 Speaker 8: COOL i still think it's a big.

MORE i think if you 1219 01:07:37,080 --> 01:07:39,800 Speaker 8: go back and look at viewership and all That Monday 1220 01:07:39,840 --> 01:07:42,840 Speaker 8: night still near the. TOP i don't sometimes it doesn't 1221 01:07:42,920 --> 01:07:46,360 Speaker 8: most of the times it doesn't matter who's playing unless 1222 01:07:46,400 --> 01:07:49,280 Speaker 8: you got two, really really crappy, teams and then maybe 1223 01:07:49,440 --> 01:07:52,080 Speaker 8: people watch something.

At you know they AND 1624 01:30:02,320 --> 01:30:05,080 Speaker 4: i know that they would need some, help but they 1625 01:30:05,120 --> 01:30:07,560 Speaker 4: would be helping themselves because they'd be beating teams like 1626 01:30:07,600 --> 01:30:11,080 Speaker 4: A houston for, example that would be before. Them so 1627 01:30:11,280 --> 01:30:16,519 Speaker 4: they have a lot of within their. Control but the 1628 01:30:16,800 --> 01:30:21,840 Speaker 4: uncertainties of the future for The, colts the uncertainty at 1629 01:30:21,840 --> 01:30:25,280 Speaker 4: the quarterback position With Daniel, jones who played very well 1630 01:30:26,479 --> 01:30:28,720 Speaker 4: and then The achilles injury, happened and you don't know 1631 01:30:28,840 --> 01:30:32,160 Speaker 4: what that means in terms of how effective he can 1632 01:30:32,240 --> 01:30:35,479 Speaker 4: be at the outset of next. Year the uncertainty Of 1633 01:30:35,520 --> 01:30:39,000 Speaker 4: Anthony richardson in his availability and whether or not they 1634 01:30:39,160 --> 01:30:43,080 Speaker 4: even want to go back to. That AND i don't 1635 01:30:43,120 --> 01:30:44,559 Speaker 4: mean that to say that in a bad way about. 1636 01:30:44,600 --> 01:30:47,120 Speaker 4: Him i'm saying it feels like they have turned that 1637 01:30:47,200 --> 01:30:51,200 Speaker 4: page On, richardson and the uncertainty of how do you 1638 01:30:51,360 --> 01:30:55,960 Speaker 4: get out of this middling area when you have already 1639 01:30:56,040 --> 01:30:58,759 Speaker 4: surrendered your first round pick for the next two years 1640 01:30:59,720 --> 01:31:03,519 Speaker 4: they gambled and mortgaged a ton by going out and 1641 01:31:03,600 --> 01:31:07,000 Speaker 4: get Getting Sauce, gardner who is, hurt and he may 1642 01:31:07,080 --> 01:31:10,040 Speaker 4: still be a wonderful player for them long. Term but 1643 01:31:10,400 --> 01:31:15,720 Speaker 4: you are in a difficult, position that uncertainty of not 1644 01:31:16,120 --> 01:31:19,920 Speaker 4: knowing and not being aware of what you possess moving 1645 01:31:19,960 --> 01:31:22,679 Speaker 4: forward in how to get out of. It while that's 1646 01:31:22,760 --> 01:31:26,280 Speaker 4: On Chris, ballard and that may well in a lot 1647 01:31:26,360 --> 01:31:33,720 Speaker 4: of cases lead to a, change it does limit to 1648 01:31:33,880 --> 01:31:36,920 Speaker 4: a great extent the number of candidates that may be 1649 01:31:37,080 --> 01:31:40,600 Speaker 4: interested in coming in to become the general manager of The. 1650 01:31:40,680 --> 01:31:44,160 Speaker 4: Colts and as a result of, that it is entirely, 1651 01:31:44,280 --> 01:31:49,040 Speaker 4: possible ironically enough That Carli. Ersa gordon may, say you know, 1652 01:31:49,160 --> 01:31:53,720 Speaker 4: what not knowing WHO i would even be able to 1653 01:31:53,800 --> 01:31:57,040 Speaker 4: get to run this, franchise and also myself being new 1654 01:31:57,240 --> 01:32:01,439 Speaker 4: in terms of being the buckstops here Person i'm going 1655 01:32:01,520 --> 01:32:04,720 Speaker 4: to go with familiarity for another year and bring Back Chris. 1656 01:32:04,800 --> 01:32:09,120 Speaker 4: BALLARD i personally Think Chris ballard will be back next. 1657 01:32:09,200 --> 01:32:12,439 Speaker 4: Year and given the fact that he could point to 1658 01:32:12,479 --> 01:32:14,200 Speaker 4: it and, say, look we Beat, denver we beat The, 1659 01:32:14,320 --> 01:32:15,920 Speaker 4: chargers we beat two of the best teams in THE, 1660 01:32:15,960 --> 01:32:22,200 Speaker 4: afc and we were a disastrous play away from beating The, 1661 01:32:22,280 --> 01:32:25,800 Speaker 4: rams who might be the best team in. Football we 1662 01:32:26,040 --> 01:32:29,160 Speaker 4: need to remind ourselves that through eight games we were 1663 01:32:29,240 --> 01:32:31,920 Speaker 4: talking about how The colts may well have been the 1664 01:32:32,160 --> 01:32:37,280 Speaker 4: best and most balanced roster in The National Football. League but, 1665 01:32:37,520 --> 01:32:40,760 Speaker 4: then and part of what makes it so challenging and 1666 01:32:40,840 --> 01:32:44,320 Speaker 4: difficult to decipher is the fact that outside of those 1667 01:32:44,400 --> 01:32:47,000 Speaker 4: games of WHICH i just, mentioned the teams that they 1668 01:32:47,120 --> 01:32:52,080 Speaker 4: beat their twenty and fifty five, total you could make 1669 01:32:52,200 --> 01:32:55,639 Speaker 4: if this was high school debate, class AND i got 1670 01:32:55,680 --> 01:32:57,240 Speaker 4: two of you sitting right here in front of, me 1671 01:32:57,680 --> 01:32:59,720 Speaker 4: and one of, YOU i, say your assignment is to 1672 01:33:00,080 --> 01:33:02,280 Speaker 4: tell me and compel me as to Why Chris ballard 1673 01:33:02,320 --> 01:33:04,599 Speaker 4: should be, back and one of, YOU i, say your 1674 01:33:04,600 --> 01:33:06,640 Speaker 4: assignment is to tell me and compel me on Why 1675 01:33:06,760 --> 01:33:10,080 Speaker 4: Chris ballard should be. Replaced both of you will have 1676 01:33:10,400 --> 01:33:18,000 Speaker 4: plenty of talking points to make very valid points both. 1677 01:33:18,040 --> 01:33:25,000 Speaker 4: SIDES i truly believe, though that the injuries To Daniel 1678 01:33:25,040 --> 01:33:28,800 Speaker 4: jones notably come into. Play To Forrest, buckner injury comes into, 1679 01:33:28,840 --> 01:33:34,240 Speaker 4: Play Moody ward comes into, play and you have to 1680 01:33:34,320 --> 01:33:38,400 Speaker 4: look all told at it in a twofold where they 1681 01:33:38,439 --> 01:33:41,240 Speaker 4: are and then in addition to, that where would they? 1682 01:33:41,360 --> 01:33:47,640 Speaker 4: Go where would they? Turn and ironically, enough one of 1683 01:33:47,760 --> 01:33:51,479 Speaker 4: the biggest decisions That Chris ballard made of sending the 1684 01:33:51,640 --> 01:33:56,000 Speaker 4: next two first round picks, away might actually if that 1685 01:33:56,200 --> 01:33:59,840 Speaker 4: is the reason that ownership decides that they need, to 1686 01:34:00,800 --> 01:34:02,960 Speaker 4: that might be what makes it the most difficult to 1687 01:34:03,040 --> 01:34:08,680 Speaker 4: find his. REPLACEMENT i think next year it's everybody's back 1688 01:34:08,760 --> 01:34:11,240 Speaker 4: and you find out health, wise and it may be 1689 01:34:12,000 --> 01:34:14,960 Speaker 4: and that may be earned because they were seven and 1690 01:34:15,080 --> 01:34:17,439 Speaker 4: one one. Healthy joining me now in The Java, House 1691 01:34:17,479 --> 01:34:20,200 Speaker 4: peel and poor guest.

One definitely things have turned not in their favor, 1719 01:35:40,760 --> 01:35:43,439 Speaker 6: lately losing on the last five or six. Games so, 1720 01:35:44,160 --> 01:35:46,400 Speaker 6: yes things have hit a rough pass right now for The. 1721 01:35:46,439 --> 01:35:48,840 Speaker 6: Colts but they still have an, opportunity and that's what you. 1722 01:35:48,920 --> 01:35:51,360 Speaker 6: Want you want opportunity as a.

Playoff 1724 01:35:54,840 --> 01:35:56,599 Speaker 6: and they still have a chance to make a. Playoff 1725 01:35:56,640 --> 01:35:58,880 Speaker 6: so they need to go out today and play where they're, 1726 01:35:58,880 --> 01:36:01,519 Speaker 6: playing gainst a, good good football team and to score 1727 01:36:01,560 --> 01:36:04,519 Speaker 6: forty nine ers because they're playing to position themselves and 1728 01:36:04,600 --> 01:36:08,840 Speaker 6: play in the, playoff playoff run.

Result it's a results. 1750 01:37:11,160 --> 01:37:14,200 Speaker 4: LEAGUE i get. It Did Shane steiken coach his best 1751 01:37:14,240 --> 01:37:19,240 Speaker 4: game of the year In? Seattle you, know it's. 1752 01:37:19,160 --> 01:37:21,760 Speaker 6: Hard to, say you know what game was the best game, 1753 01:37:21,800 --> 01:37:23,519 Speaker 6: set BUT i thought he did a great job of 1754 01:37:23,640 --> 01:37:26,439 Speaker 6: what He what they did out there In. Seattle, uh 1755 01:37:26,600 --> 01:37:29,880 Speaker 6: not Only Shane, steichen but the defense as. Well Louena 1756 01:37:29,960 --> 01:37:33,080 Speaker 6: remo what they did and how they kind of slowed 1757 01:37:33,160 --> 01:37:37,200 Speaker 6: down that The seahawks offense and held them to nothing 1758 01:37:37,240 --> 01:37:39,479 Speaker 6: but field. Goals and when you do, that you, figure, 1759 01:37:39,800 --> 01:37:41,280 Speaker 6: hey you know, what you had a shot to win 1760 01:37:41,320 --> 01:37:43,920 Speaker 6: the football. Game and then Having Philip rivers back, there 1761 01:37:44,040 --> 01:37:46,400 Speaker 6: someone that has the command of the, offense understanding the, 1762 01:37:46,479 --> 01:37:49,680 Speaker 6: offense and you, know he didn't have any. Turnover the 1763 01:37:50,320 --> 01:37:52,479 Speaker 6: TURNOVER i had a turnablevo was late in the, game 1764 01:37:52,600 --> 01:37:55,000 Speaker 6: so uh that really didn't count because he's trying to 1765 01:37:55,200 --> 01:37:58,040 Speaker 6: hit the team, back but pushing the ball down.

Before in regards To philip never was one 1794 01:39:26,880 --> 01:39:29,760 Speaker 6: of those guys that had an overly strong arm to 1795 01:39:29,840 --> 01:39:31,920 Speaker 6: get the ball Down. Stiel he could throw the, ball 1796 01:39:32,360 --> 01:39:34,120 Speaker 6: he could get the Ball. Downstiel he could put it 1797 01:39:34,200 --> 01:39:36,840 Speaker 6: in tight windows and tight, spots and it can get 1798 01:39:36,880 --> 01:39:39,120 Speaker 6: you in the right place when. Needed SO i think 1799 01:39:39,200 --> 01:39:42,320 Speaker 6: he can get the ball. Downfield BUT i think what's 1800 01:39:42,360 --> 01:39:44,400 Speaker 6: going to also happen is he's going to have to 1801 01:39:44,439 --> 01:39:47,479 Speaker 6: get those short passes work over in the, middle and 1802 01:39:47,800 --> 01:39:50,120 Speaker 6: it's going to be up to the receivers to actually 1803 01:39:50,200 --> 01:39:52,960 Speaker 6: make some yards after the. CATCH i, mean that's one 1804 01:39:53,040 --> 01:39:55,760 Speaker 6: way you can get some exposive. Plays you have to 1805 01:39:55,840 --> 01:39:58,599 Speaker 6: make sure that you complete the passes and get the ball. 1806 01:39:58,680 --> 01:40:01,360 Speaker 6: Downfield SO i think he can get the ball down 1807 01:40:01,439 --> 01:40:03,960 Speaker 6: feel some but it's not going to, be you, know 1808 01:40:04,160 --> 01:40:07,560 Speaker 6: throwing the ball seventy yards down the.

Legacy a little bit more pressure on a, 1844 01:41:58,200 --> 01:42:02,439 Speaker 6: quarterback especially especially when it gets down late in the 1845 01:42:02,520 --> 01:42:06,479 Speaker 6: game and they need a sack or need to force 1846 01:42:06,560 --> 01:42:08,640 Speaker 6: the quarterback to make an aar thrill something of that. 1847 01:42:08,800 --> 01:42:13,120 Speaker 6: Nature that that would be my.

Moments could he? 1856 01:42:40,000 --> 01:42:42,200 Speaker 4: PAY i think is just a. GUY i don't dislike, 1857 01:42:42,280 --> 01:42:44,880 Speaker 4: him but he's just a. Guy right when you have 1858 01:42:45,160 --> 01:42:50,679 Speaker 4: now the process of Getting Mooney ward and Getting Sauce 1859 01:42:50,760 --> 01:42:55,160 Speaker 4: gardner and imagining those two as healthy corners, There, how 1860 01:42:55,439 --> 01:42:58,320 Speaker 4: when you are a, receiver you, know how long do 1861 01:42:58,439 --> 01:43:02,200 Speaker 4: you go into a play and a set where you're 1862 01:43:02,200 --> 01:43:04,880 Speaker 4: continuing to try to work yourself open before then a 1863 01:43:05,040 --> 01:43:09,599 Speaker 4: coverage shack becomes availability and becomes available because everything. Collapses 1864 01:43:09,680 --> 01:43:12,080 Speaker 4: in other, words if the colts can't get pass, rush 1865 01:43:12,360 --> 01:43:15,120 Speaker 4: can the corners take care of that for? Them where 1866 01:43:15,160 --> 01:43:19,160 Speaker 4: then eventually it collapses for the defense, Anyway, yes. 1867 01:43:19,120 --> 01:43:21,280 Speaker 6: Definitely you definitely can get. THAT i mean it can 1868 01:43:21,360 --> 01:43:24,040 Speaker 6: happen if the corners are playing tight coverage and makes 1869 01:43:24,080 --> 01:43:27,080 Speaker 6: it very difficult from the quarterback to feel comfortable and 1870 01:43:27,120 --> 01:43:30,080 Speaker 6: throwing the ball to the, receiver and if they continue 1871 01:43:30,120 --> 01:43:33,160 Speaker 6: to you, know hold the, ball hold the, ball hold the, 1872 01:43:33,200 --> 01:43:35,920 Speaker 6: ball then, yes the pass rush can get. There but 1873 01:43:36,040 --> 01:43:38,400 Speaker 6: a lot of times what happens is if the if 1874 01:43:38,439 --> 01:43:42,240 Speaker 6: the receiver is open or don't have much pressure and 1875 01:43:42,280 --> 01:43:44,599 Speaker 6: the quarterback can hold the ball and feel comfortable back 1876 01:43:44,640 --> 01:43:46,600 Speaker 6: there and then throw the ball to the. Receiver the 1877 01:43:46,680 --> 01:43:48,640 Speaker 6: receiver is wide, open so it kind of works hand in. 1878 01:43:48,720 --> 01:43:50,880 Speaker 6: Hand you, know you got you got guys in the 1879 01:43:51,040 --> 01:43:52,040 Speaker 6: back and there. 1880 01:43:52,000 --> 01:43:52,639 Speaker 9: They play tight. 1881 01:43:52,720 --> 01:43:57,000 Speaker 6: Coverage then it gives the guys in front opportunity to 1882 01:43:57,040 --> 01:43:59,760 Speaker 6: get to the. Quarterback but then also sometimes that there's 1883 01:43:59,760 --> 01:44:03,960 Speaker 6: guy front get there quick, enough it rushes the quarterback 1884 01:44:04,000 --> 01:44:05,720 Speaker 6: and the quarterback has to throw the ball before the 1885 01:44:05,800 --> 01:44:08,559 Speaker 6: receiver was actually into his route or at the top 1886 01:44:08,640 --> 01:44:10,840 Speaker 6: of the vout or breaking out of his, route and 1887 01:44:11,280 --> 01:44:13,040 Speaker 6: it goes incomplete or might be an. 1888 01:44:13,040 --> 01:44:17,799 Speaker 4: Interception who's the toughest corner you?

Again and you're talking about teams 2093 01:56:01,280 --> 01:56:04,840 Speaker 4: that have And indiana is as well coached and as 2094 01:56:04,880 --> 01:56:06,960 Speaker 4: well prepared as anybody in the country probably more. So 2095 01:56:08,760 --> 01:56:11,160 Speaker 4: and at this point it's a little absurd to talk 2096 01:56:11,200 --> 01:56:14,080 Speaker 4: about where these guys were ranked when they were in high. 2097 01:56:14,080 --> 01:56:17,440 Speaker 4: School mendoza pointed that. Out that means a hill of 2098 01:56:17,480 --> 01:56:21,840 Speaker 4: beans at this. Point but, nonetheless And indiana has done 2099 01:56:21,880 --> 01:56:26,520 Speaker 4: an unbelievable job with next man up and overcoming an 2100 01:56:26,560 --> 01:56:31,440 Speaker 4: injuries and their. Depth but there is one thing to 2101 01:56:31,520 --> 01:56:33,400 Speaker 4: be said about playing in The Big ten and going 2102 01:56:33,480 --> 01:56:36,080 Speaker 4: through the riggers of The Big ten but still knowing, that, 2103 01:56:36,280 --> 01:56:39,080 Speaker 4: yes you've got to push all in On oregon and 2104 01:56:39,200 --> 01:56:44,520 Speaker 4: then you come back With, iowa who's very. Good But 2105 01:56:44,680 --> 01:56:47,640 Speaker 4: iowa has the same level of depth As. Indiana there 2106 01:56:47,760 --> 01:56:49,760 Speaker 4: is a dip that can take place when you get 2107 01:56:49,840 --> 01:56:53,440 Speaker 4: through it and in the, grind and now they Are 2108 01:56:53,520 --> 01:56:57,000 Speaker 4: indiana is getting ready to go through a grind unlike 2109 01:56:57,080 --> 01:57:00,160 Speaker 4: any they have. Seen they are as well, coached well, 2110 01:57:00,240 --> 01:57:04,120 Speaker 4: prepared and as well adjusted for that as anybody in college. 2111 01:57:04,120 --> 01:57:10,200 Speaker 4: FOOTBALL i understand. That but having said, that The oregons 2112 01:57:10,680 --> 01:57:14,400 Speaker 4: The Ohio, states when you start talking about the second 2113 01:57:14,560 --> 01:57:18,400 Speaker 4: or third tier of their players in the, trenches notably 2114 01:57:19,400 --> 01:57:22,120 Speaker 4: whether it's keeping people fresh or whether there is, injury 2115 01:57:22,600 --> 01:57:26,480 Speaker 4: you just don't have as significant a potential drop and 2116 01:57:26,680 --> 01:57:29,920 Speaker 4: wearing you, out and that's going to be a challenge For, 2117 01:57:30,000 --> 01:57:33,760 Speaker 4: indiana but it's. Awesome and DO i think they'll Beat? 2118 01:57:33,800 --> 01:57:36,840 Speaker 4: ALABAMA i. Do and at this point you would be a, 2119 01:57:37,120 --> 01:57:41,840 Speaker 4: fool a fool to rule Out indiana in any college 2120 01:57:41,880 --> 01:57:45,400 Speaker 4: football game because right now they have the best coach 2121 01:57:45,440 --> 01:57:48,480 Speaker 4: in the country and they are that well prepared basketball 2122 01:57:48,520 --> 01:57:51,320 Speaker 4: side of. Things LIKE i Mentioned sienna, tonight and AGAIN 2123 01:57:51,440 --> 01:57:54,800 Speaker 4: i Have indiana fans probably are, like, oh, yeah that's, 2124 01:57:54,880 --> 01:57:56,440 Speaker 4: right they got a, Game BUT i got A christmas 2125 01:57:56,440 --> 01:57:58,960 Speaker 4: shop and get ready for The Rose Bull purdue week 2126 01:57:59,080 --> 01:58:03,240 Speaker 4: off and Then prdue Gets Kent. State purdue's coming off 2127 01:58:03,720 --> 01:58:08,160 Speaker 4: a fabulous, performance and Is auburn you, Know Bruce, Pearl 2128 01:58:10,680 --> 01:58:13,320 Speaker 4: Bruce pearl had, said like you know last year when 2129 01:58:13,360 --> 01:58:16,200 Speaker 4: talking about, well you, know he was talking about when 2130 01:58:16,240 --> 01:58:18,080 Speaker 4: he had coached Against perdue and we just went out 2131 01:58:18,120 --> 01:58:20,000 Speaker 4: and smacked, him smacked him in the mouth something like. 2132 01:58:20,040 --> 01:58:22,840 Speaker 4: That AND i Know Bruce pearl's not there, anymore but 2133 01:58:23,760 --> 01:58:27,600 Speaker 4: That auburn team still has a lot of. Athleticism they 2134 01:58:27,640 --> 01:58:29,560 Speaker 4: can play at a high, level they can play at, 2135 01:58:29,640 --> 01:58:34,880 Speaker 4: pace And purdue. Did that might have Been purdue's best 2136 01:58:34,920 --> 01:58:37,920 Speaker 4: performance of the, year AND i thought they Cliniced Texas. 2137 01:58:38,000 --> 01:58:41,720 Speaker 4: TECH i Think purdue has. Offset, yes they had the 2138 01:58:41,760 --> 01:58:43,560 Speaker 4: bump in the road With Iowa, state and that was 2139 01:58:43,760 --> 01:58:47,560 Speaker 4: bizarre to have that happen At. Mackie but they have 2140 01:58:48,400 --> 01:58:53,440 Speaker 4: seemingly more than made up for that because they have quality. 2141 01:58:53,560 --> 01:58:57,440 Speaker 4: Wins the win Against, alabama the win Against Texas, tech 2142 01:58:58,000 --> 01:59:02,720 Speaker 4: the win Against. Auburn assuming they hold serve here through 2143 01:59:02,760 --> 01:59:05,120 Speaker 4: The Big ten and don't have a massive, collapse they've 2144 01:59:05,160 --> 01:59:08,680 Speaker 4: afforded themselves a couple of, costs a couple of losses 2145 01:59:08,720 --> 01:59:12,560 Speaker 4: even Into Big, ten and still hold on to that 2146 01:59:12,640 --> 01:59:17,520 Speaker 4: number one. Seed they have been so good And Oscar 2147 01:59:17,600 --> 01:59:23,720 Speaker 4: cluff has been so perfect for what they. Need Trey 2148 01:59:23,800 --> 01:59:26,280 Speaker 4: kaufman ran in his ability to play off of that 2149 01:59:26,520 --> 01:59:29,040 Speaker 4: and be freed up on the. Block so many areas For. 2150 01:59:29,200 --> 01:59:39,120 Speaker 4: Purdue and it goes without. Saying and, yes the Last 2151 01:59:39,200 --> 01:59:41,080 Speaker 4: colts home game up in the press, box somebody came 2152 01:59:41,160 --> 01:59:44,160 Speaker 4: up and, SAID i know you didn't say.

Basketball, YES i did say, that AND i will. 2159 01:59:57,440 --> 02:00:00,760 Speaker 4: Stay is he the most athletically Gifted? No is he 2160 02:00:00,800 --> 02:00:06,280 Speaker 4: the one with the BIGGEST nba? Potential, No but right 2161 02:00:06,360 --> 02:00:12,520 Speaker 4: Now purdue. Is AND i know That arizona Or Michigan 2162 02:00:12,640 --> 02:00:15,000 Speaker 4: michigan's really aren't. GOOD i know those teams are. Great 2163 02:00:17,200 --> 02:00:19,440 Speaker 4: but the balance of What purdue brings to the. Table 2164 02:00:19,960 --> 02:00:23,640 Speaker 4: and why Did mendoza win The. Heisman he won The 2165 02:00:23,680 --> 02:00:27,000 Speaker 4: heisman because he's the quarterback of the best team in college, 2166 02:00:27,040 --> 02:00:30,320 Speaker 4: football and over the course of the, year in, totality 2167 02:00:30,800 --> 02:00:37,000 Speaker 4: the best team Is purdue and the quarterback of that 2168 02:00:37,200 --> 02:00:40,640 Speaker 4: team Is Braden. Smith and he's going to be AN nba, 2169 02:00:40,720 --> 02:00:46,040 Speaker 4: player and he is the presumptive preseason player of the. 2170 02:00:46,120 --> 02:00:47,680 Speaker 4: YEAR i don't think it's like way out of left 2171 02:00:47,720 --> 02:00:49,240 Speaker 4: field to say that he's the best player in college. 2172 02:00:49,280 --> 02:00:57,440 Speaker 4: Basketball most, dynamic, no most, potential, no most.
