WEBVTT - Episode 545 | Colts/Ravens Recap + Anthony Richardson Injury Worry?

0:00:00.240 --> 0:00:02.920
<v Speaker 1>Way are back. It is Colts Corn with myself, Kevin

0:00:02.960 --> 0:00:05.440
<v Speaker 1>Bow and Eddie Garrison is with me. It is a

0:00:05.519 --> 0:00:08.920
<v Speaker 1>late Thursday night, very late for Eddie, so appreciate him

0:00:09.440 --> 0:00:12.880
<v Speaker 1>joining us here on this Friday morning. We are going

0:00:12.960 --> 0:00:16.439
<v Speaker 1>to recap Colts and Ravens preseason opener. What was the

0:00:16.480 --> 0:00:18.920
<v Speaker 1>final score? Twenty four to sixteen? Was it that?

0:00:19.120 --> 0:00:20.840
<v Speaker 2>I think so? By the way, I love that the.

0:00:20.920 --> 0:00:23.360
<v Speaker 1>NFL now it just ends preseason games and ties. That

0:00:23.520 --> 0:00:26.880
<v Speaker 1>is awesome to see. The Colts avoided that, but it's

0:00:27.080 --> 0:00:29.080
<v Speaker 1>one of the games last night and in a tie.

0:00:29.080 --> 0:00:33.040
<v Speaker 1>A ton to get to on today's pod. Obviously a

0:00:33.040 --> 0:00:36.800
<v Speaker 1>lot from last night and really unfortunate rookie injury news,

0:00:37.159 --> 0:00:40.240
<v Speaker 1>so we'll hit on that as well. Eddie, good morning

0:00:40.280 --> 0:00:40.559
<v Speaker 1>to you.

0:00:41.000 --> 0:00:44.320
<v Speaker 2>Good morning, and I appreciate you being appreciative of me.

0:00:44.440 --> 0:00:47.120
<v Speaker 2>But I think we're equaling the same boat here, just

0:00:47.159 --> 0:00:50.040
<v Speaker 2>because you know, you host a morning show at seven am,

0:00:50.120 --> 0:00:52.920
<v Speaker 2>and that game did not really end early into the

0:00:53.000 --> 0:00:55.240
<v Speaker 2>night last night for you either, so we're probably, you know,

0:00:55.280 --> 0:00:57.040
<v Speaker 2>operating on the same amount of sleep.

0:00:57.200 --> 0:00:59.720
<v Speaker 1>Never been a big fan of the primetimers, but no

0:00:59.760 --> 0:01:02.040
<v Speaker 1>one wants to care about that. They would like to

0:01:02.160 --> 0:01:06.200
<v Speaker 1>hopefully hear a little bit of analyzing I guess from

0:01:06.280 --> 0:01:07.840
<v Speaker 1>last night. So let's get into it. We'll start with

0:01:07.840 --> 0:01:09.920
<v Speaker 1>the quarterbacks and then, you know, try to get into

0:01:09.920 --> 0:01:11.800
<v Speaker 1>our regular season mode of hey, what did I like?

0:01:11.840 --> 0:01:15.720
<v Speaker 1>What did I not like? But let's start with the quarterbacks,

0:01:15.720 --> 0:01:19.240
<v Speaker 1>and obviously begin with Anthony Richardson. I guess there is

0:01:19.319 --> 0:01:21.600
<v Speaker 1>part of me that, you know, feels the need to

0:01:21.600 --> 0:01:24.920
<v Speaker 1>look at the three passes that he did throw. He

0:01:25.040 --> 0:01:27.959
<v Speaker 1>was two of three last night, Eddie, and you know

0:01:28.040 --> 0:01:30.160
<v Speaker 1>the one called back due to the illegal man downfield

0:01:30.160 --> 0:01:33.199
<v Speaker 1>the screen to WARRENIM it seemed like, and I think

0:01:33.280 --> 0:01:35.880
<v Speaker 1>the injury play also plays into this, it seemed like

0:01:35.880 --> 0:01:37.760
<v Speaker 1>there was a very concerted effort to kind of lock

0:01:37.800 --> 0:01:40.600
<v Speaker 1>onto Ady Mitchell. H You know, he had the one

0:01:40.640 --> 0:01:44.760
<v Speaker 1>comeback with that pocket kind of collapsing as the first completion,

0:01:44.880 --> 0:01:48.560
<v Speaker 1>and then if you watch the near interception the third

0:01:48.600 --> 0:01:51.880
<v Speaker 1>and seven. I liked on second thirteen him just finding

0:01:51.920 --> 0:01:54.880
<v Speaker 1>more again, that's kind of simple. Get to third and seven,

0:01:54.920 --> 0:01:57.480
<v Speaker 1>get to manageable. Now you're back into managable field goal range.

0:01:57.800 --> 0:02:00.720
<v Speaker 1>You have a chance to convert and seven. I didn't

0:02:00.760 --> 0:02:04.960
<v Speaker 1>love that he locks in on Mitchell not open. And

0:02:05.000 --> 0:02:07.040
<v Speaker 1>if you throw laid across the middle on a third

0:02:07.080 --> 0:02:11.799
<v Speaker 1>and long, oh boy, you're just you're asking for disaster.

0:02:12.040 --> 0:02:14.720
<v Speaker 1>And it nearly was. He nearly gets picked off there

0:02:15.360 --> 0:02:17.120
<v Speaker 1>over the middle of field, trying to find duel in

0:02:17.200 --> 0:02:19.600
<v Speaker 1>there over the middle. And yes, again the pocket is

0:02:19.600 --> 0:02:24.320
<v Speaker 1>not necessarily ideal. But you know that's one where maybe

0:02:24.360 --> 0:02:26.440
<v Speaker 1>in the preseason he's like, no, I'll test it here,

0:02:26.480 --> 0:02:28.160
<v Speaker 1>but in the regular season, I'll eat it. That's probably

0:02:28.160 --> 0:02:29.799
<v Speaker 1>giving him too much credit, but that's when you got

0:02:29.840 --> 0:02:32.000
<v Speaker 1>to eat you know, third and seven, throw it at

0:02:32.000 --> 0:02:35.639
<v Speaker 1>the feet of dueling. Don't even give your chance for

0:02:35.680 --> 0:02:37.800
<v Speaker 1>a turn over there, and again a sack would have

0:02:37.800 --> 0:02:39.720
<v Speaker 1>been obviously knocking you out of field goal range in

0:02:39.760 --> 0:02:43.040
<v Speaker 1>all likelihood there. So I guess that is the extreme

0:02:44.440 --> 0:02:47.800
<v Speaker 1>overreaction to three snaps of him. But obviously let's go

0:02:47.800 --> 0:02:52.679
<v Speaker 1>to the play that he gets injured on. The injury itself,

0:02:52.919 --> 0:02:54.720
<v Speaker 1>by all accounts, doesn't sound to be too severe.

0:02:55.200 --> 0:02:58.480
<v Speaker 2>Jordy Schultz said around nine o'clock this morning that he'll

0:02:58.480 --> 0:02:59.760
<v Speaker 2>be back on the practice field soon.

0:03:00.080 --> 0:03:04.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, so against Saturday, Sunday, Monday. Yeah, the cultural practice

0:03:04.800 --> 0:03:06.720
<v Speaker 1>and that hit itself, like you know, we have this

0:03:06.800 --> 0:03:10.600
<v Speaker 1>label with Anthony Richardson, and it's unfortunate. Is the injury prone?

0:03:11.639 --> 0:03:15.640
<v Speaker 1>Nothing last night Eddie changed my thought on that, Like

0:03:15.800 --> 0:03:20.520
<v Speaker 1>that sort of hit a you know, you're not bracing

0:03:20.560 --> 0:03:24.560
<v Speaker 1>yourself for a two hundred and fifty pounds individual revving

0:03:24.760 --> 0:03:28.920
<v Speaker 1>up and hitting you where he did. I'd venture to

0:03:28.919 --> 0:03:32.440
<v Speaker 1>guess most NFL players would dislocate a finger. Most quarterbacks

0:03:32.480 --> 0:03:39.240
<v Speaker 1>would dislocate a finger in that situation. Obviously, him having

0:03:39.280 --> 0:03:42.800
<v Speaker 1>to leave due to any injury is not good for

0:03:42.920 --> 0:03:46.280
<v Speaker 1>his own rep needed self. He needs all the reps,

0:03:46.360 --> 0:03:47.760
<v Speaker 1>especially on a night when it was supposed to be

0:03:47.760 --> 0:03:49.960
<v Speaker 1>his night. He was supposed to get the bulk of

0:03:49.960 --> 0:03:53.000
<v Speaker 1>the work there. So I think you kind of start

0:03:53.040 --> 0:03:56.160
<v Speaker 1>there of like again, injury prone. Like I still feel

0:03:56.160 --> 0:03:59.960
<v Speaker 1>the same sort of injury questions about Anthony Richardson going

0:04:00.120 --> 0:04:02.280
<v Speaker 1>into last night as I did exiting last night. I

0:04:02.320 --> 0:04:06.400
<v Speaker 1>don't think that one changes much for me. The issue

0:04:06.400 --> 0:04:10.720
<v Speaker 1>for me is how the injury happened, and it was

0:04:10.760 --> 0:04:16.000
<v Speaker 1>a misidentification by your third year quarterback. That is the

0:04:16.320 --> 0:04:20.120
<v Speaker 1>clear most obvious issue to me. And you know Anthony

0:04:20.160 --> 0:04:24.440
<v Speaker 1>obviously admitted it after the game, and you know, by

0:04:24.440 --> 0:04:28.080
<v Speaker 1>all accounts that identification pre snap is rather elementary for

0:04:28.080 --> 0:04:32.360
<v Speaker 1>an NFL quarterback, and for you to miss that in

0:04:32.400 --> 0:04:38.080
<v Speaker 1>an August seventh preseason game setting, what two first team

0:04:38.120 --> 0:04:40.960
<v Speaker 1>starters out there for the Ravens defense, by no means,

0:04:41.320 --> 0:04:44.440
<v Speaker 1>is you know, Zach Orr and Chuck Pagano trying to

0:04:44.480 --> 0:04:46.640
<v Speaker 1>be super exotic with you. You're as vanilla as you

0:04:46.680 --> 0:04:50.600
<v Speaker 1>can come in a preseason setting. And for you not

0:04:50.800 --> 0:04:52.840
<v Speaker 1>to see that, And yet, Eddie, when you look around

0:04:52.920 --> 0:04:55.599
<v Speaker 1>him offensively last night, on that play in particular, the

0:04:55.680 --> 0:04:59.080
<v Speaker 1>rookie right tackle sees it, the rookie tight end season,

0:04:59.360 --> 0:05:02.800
<v Speaker 1>the rookie run seize it. And for you to be

0:05:02.839 --> 0:05:05.760
<v Speaker 1>the one not on the same page. And even post snap, Eddie,

0:05:05.800 --> 0:05:07.800
<v Speaker 1>there were a couple tells right away. You know, pre

0:05:07.920 --> 0:05:10.560
<v Speaker 1>snap you can identify it, but post snap, you know,

0:05:10.600 --> 0:05:14.120
<v Speaker 1>once you see that end dropping, And again, how much

0:05:14.120 --> 0:05:16.000
<v Speaker 1>of this is like locking it on? Ad eighty was

0:05:16.040 --> 0:05:18.120
<v Speaker 1>on that left side of the field. You know, I'm

0:05:18.120 --> 0:05:20.599
<v Speaker 1>trying to get a little bit more into why behind

0:05:20.640 --> 0:05:24.679
<v Speaker 1>that play. For him not to see it, that would

0:05:24.680 --> 0:05:28.000
<v Speaker 1>have me calling wee girl hair endy if I'm chang stiking,

0:05:29.839 --> 0:05:33.479
<v Speaker 1>oh boy, like what is going on here? Can you

0:05:33.520 --> 0:05:36.640
<v Speaker 1>trust him? Can you trust him? And I think that

0:05:36.760 --> 0:05:39.800
<v Speaker 1>is a very real question. You know, this gets into okay,

0:05:39.880 --> 0:05:42.720
<v Speaker 1>what about game wraps for him? You know, let's say

0:05:42.720 --> 0:05:45.200
<v Speaker 1>he starts week one, Eddie, that'll be a sixteenth career

0:05:45.279 --> 0:05:47.640
<v Speaker 1>NFL start. I mean that's not even a full season. No,

0:05:47.800 --> 0:05:49.919
<v Speaker 1>So then you get into this internal debate. And I

0:05:49.920 --> 0:05:51.839
<v Speaker 1>know this conversation has come up more in the last

0:05:51.880 --> 0:05:54.480
<v Speaker 1>few months because Chris Bowers brought it up. Hey, we

0:05:54.480 --> 0:05:57.279
<v Speaker 1>we rushed him in there as a rookie. Well, like,

0:05:58.120 --> 0:06:01.880
<v Speaker 1>does Anthony Richardson learn that play last night in a

0:06:01.920 --> 0:06:05.640
<v Speaker 1>meeting room or does he have to experience it to

0:06:05.720 --> 0:06:06.080
<v Speaker 1>learn it?

0:06:06.360 --> 0:06:09.080
<v Speaker 2>I mean that's day one install stuff though, right.

0:06:08.920 --> 0:06:12.320
<v Speaker 1>So like, again, theoretically he learned that right in a

0:06:12.360 --> 0:06:15.440
<v Speaker 1>meeting room, but do you have to learn it again

0:06:15.480 --> 0:06:18.040
<v Speaker 1>on the field? And again, this just gets into what

0:06:18.160 --> 0:06:23.680
<v Speaker 1>makes his overall evaluation so complicated and so frustrating because

0:06:23.720 --> 0:06:27.920
<v Speaker 1>it continues to lead to you know, negative areas. I

0:06:27.920 --> 0:06:29.479
<v Speaker 1>guess is probably the best way to put it. So

0:06:30.800 --> 0:06:33.679
<v Speaker 1>summarize it all, Eddie. It doesn't sound like his absence

0:06:33.680 --> 0:06:35.560
<v Speaker 1>will be too too long. You have to flip the

0:06:35.640 --> 0:06:38.400
<v Speaker 1>quarterback situation for me, for Green Bay, if you really

0:06:38.440 --> 0:06:40.960
<v Speaker 1>want to make this competition go.

0:06:41.040 --> 0:06:43.400
<v Speaker 2>On, because it essentially flipped yet last night.

0:06:43.400 --> 0:06:44.840
<v Speaker 1>It's got to be Richardson for a quarter and a

0:06:44.839 --> 0:06:48.120
<v Speaker 1>half a week from Saturday against Green Bay. Then maybe

0:06:48.160 --> 0:06:50.440
<v Speaker 1>you make a decision after that and dress rehearsal it

0:06:50.520 --> 0:06:52.640
<v Speaker 1>up agains Cincinnati. I don't know, Maybe you continue it

0:06:52.680 --> 0:06:55.640
<v Speaker 1>for one more week. Training camp's over, you know after

0:06:55.680 --> 0:06:57.960
<v Speaker 1>this coming week, Thursday's joint practice is.

0:06:57.880 --> 0:07:00.440
<v Speaker 2>The end of it. So but.

0:07:01.920 --> 0:07:04.800
<v Speaker 1>The injury itself, the injury prone narrative, none of that

0:07:05.760 --> 0:07:07.760
<v Speaker 1>matters too too much to me. Yes, the fact that

0:07:07.800 --> 0:07:10.080
<v Speaker 1>you had to leave the game matters. It's more of

0:07:10.120 --> 0:07:14.760
<v Speaker 1>a you're gonna watch thirty one other NFL teams salivate

0:07:14.920 --> 0:07:17.440
<v Speaker 1>over watching that play, and now they're gonna sit there

0:07:17.440 --> 0:07:20.320
<v Speaker 1>and say, how else can we confuse him? How else

0:07:20.360 --> 0:07:24.760
<v Speaker 1>can we make things be difficult for him? Because that

0:07:24.800 --> 0:07:27.840
<v Speaker 1>should be a very anticipatory play where you realize it

0:07:28.440 --> 0:07:30.680
<v Speaker 1>and you find DJ Giddens for three or four yards

0:07:30.720 --> 0:07:34.400
<v Speaker 1>and you move on. But instead he gets hurt and

0:07:34.480 --> 0:07:36.920
<v Speaker 1>honestly he's fortunate to hold on the ball. Yeah, I

0:07:36.960 --> 0:07:38.560
<v Speaker 1>mean that very easily could have been a turnover in

0:07:38.600 --> 0:07:39.320
<v Speaker 1>your own territory.

0:07:39.440 --> 0:07:42.080
<v Speaker 2>Well, he did lose it, yeah, and he got it back. Yeah.

0:07:42.240 --> 0:07:44.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean that could be catastrophic in a road environment

0:07:44.920 --> 0:07:47.760
<v Speaker 1>against a quality opponent, et cetera, et cetera. So that's

0:07:47.760 --> 0:07:49.760
<v Speaker 1>pretty much everything I've got on Richardson Eddie.

0:07:51.960 --> 0:07:54.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, what did you think about Daniel Jones?

0:07:59.200 --> 0:08:01.440
<v Speaker 1>I thought he's I thought he's better than the stat

0:08:01.440 --> 0:08:05.400
<v Speaker 1>line looks like he was ten of twenty one Gouls

0:08:05.400 --> 0:08:10.040
<v Speaker 1>had two drops, Giddens had one probably, I don't know.

0:08:10.080 --> 0:08:12.280
<v Speaker 1>The fifty to fifty balls with Mitchell, I thought he

0:08:12.280 --> 0:08:14.320
<v Speaker 1>didn't get a very favorable flag on.

0:08:14.600 --> 0:08:19.400
<v Speaker 2>I thought one of them was severely underthrown the deep ball, yeah,

0:08:19.440 --> 0:08:21.120
<v Speaker 2>where he had like two steps behind the.

0:08:21.760 --> 0:08:24.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, I know some of those. It's like, you know,

0:08:24.160 --> 0:08:26.080
<v Speaker 1>like Cooper rushed those the front shoulder and throw the

0:08:26.080 --> 0:08:27.880
<v Speaker 1>instead of the back shoulder, and like if you really

0:08:27.920 --> 0:08:30.360
<v Speaker 1>back shoulder it, you can win there.

0:08:30.480 --> 0:08:31.679
<v Speaker 2>And get a PI. Yeah.

0:08:31.720 --> 0:08:34.480
<v Speaker 1>Well I'm not saying that, you just you know, you're not.

0:08:35.280 --> 0:08:37.800
<v Speaker 1>Is that a pure go route right or do you

0:08:37.840 --> 0:08:41.480
<v Speaker 1>read that back shoulder? I thought Jones was fine if

0:08:41.520 --> 0:08:43.240
<v Speaker 1>I had to compare him to what I've seen so

0:08:43.280 --> 0:08:45.600
<v Speaker 1>far in Grand Park. I do think last night, he

0:08:45.640 --> 0:08:50.720
<v Speaker 1>was probably a little bit better than he has been. Again,

0:08:50.800 --> 0:08:54.400
<v Speaker 1>ten to twenty one with four drops. Ten to seventeen

0:08:54.480 --> 0:08:57.920
<v Speaker 1>isn't a great night by any means. But I did

0:08:58.000 --> 0:09:03.320
<v Speaker 1>think at his best he gave I would say probably three, four,

0:09:03.400 --> 0:09:08.880
<v Speaker 1>maybe even five opportunities for notable yards after catch instride,

0:09:10.200 --> 0:09:12.800
<v Speaker 1>you make a play, you turned you know eight into thirteen,

0:09:13.000 --> 0:09:15.880
<v Speaker 1>you know nine into you know seventeen, things like that

0:09:16.280 --> 0:09:19.360
<v Speaker 1>to a variety of guys. That's a really key part

0:09:19.920 --> 0:09:22.840
<v Speaker 1>obviously to playing quarterback, particularly this offense. I thought his

0:09:22.880 --> 0:09:24.600
<v Speaker 1>best play the night was probably that second and seven

0:09:24.640 --> 0:09:26.800
<v Speaker 1>where he rolled to his left. He's definitely under pressure.

0:09:27.600 --> 0:09:29.520
<v Speaker 1>It doesn't end in a sack, it doesn't end in

0:09:29.559 --> 0:09:32.720
<v Speaker 1>a throwaway, and he finds dueling for twenty twenty five

0:09:32.800 --> 0:09:35.240
<v Speaker 1>something like that. Dolan, you know, did a lot with

0:09:35.280 --> 0:09:38.120
<v Speaker 1>it after the catch, but I thought that was what

0:09:38.240 --> 0:09:42.040
<v Speaker 1>Jones can do with his legs. So, you know, when

0:09:42.080 --> 0:09:44.640
<v Speaker 1>you talk about the Colts quarterback situation, Eddie, the bar

0:09:44.920 --> 0:09:50.320
<v Speaker 1>is so pathetically low. It's arguably different than every NFL team.

0:09:50.800 --> 0:09:52.960
<v Speaker 1>So like when I sit here and say, well, I

0:09:52.960 --> 0:09:57.640
<v Speaker 1>mean I think Daniel Jones was okay, I mean it,

0:09:58.160 --> 0:10:01.760
<v Speaker 1>But then like, if I I watched whatever Jordan Love

0:10:01.880 --> 0:10:04.080
<v Speaker 1>quarterback of Camp for ten straight days, and then you

0:10:04.160 --> 0:10:06.400
<v Speaker 1>told me to weigh him up against that, I'd probably

0:10:06.400 --> 0:10:08.440
<v Speaker 1>be like, oh, that's a little different.

0:10:08.760 --> 0:10:09.000
<v Speaker 3>You know.

0:10:09.120 --> 0:10:12.840
<v Speaker 1>It's like yesterday, I'm playing in this golf at and

0:10:12.840 --> 0:10:15.000
<v Speaker 1>they're like, yeah, Kevin, how but if you be the

0:10:15.040 --> 0:10:17.360
<v Speaker 1>long drive guy, I'm like, Okay, guys, I don't really

0:10:17.440 --> 0:10:20.080
<v Speaker 1>hit a long drive. I can get the ball airborne,

0:10:20.400 --> 0:10:22.920
<v Speaker 1>So like people like look at that and they're like, oh, wow,

0:10:23.000 --> 0:10:24.839
<v Speaker 1>that's that's pretty good. But then like if you get

0:10:24.840 --> 0:10:26.440
<v Speaker 1>some other people on the tee that can really hit it,

0:10:26.600 --> 0:10:29.440
<v Speaker 1>They're like, wait, you're the long drive guy. You like

0:10:29.520 --> 0:10:33.640
<v Speaker 1>have Greg Maddox's fastball. I'm like, well, yeah, yeah, sorry.

0:10:34.400 --> 0:10:36.720
<v Speaker 1>It's just like Daniel Jones playing quarterback. It's like, well

0:10:37.520 --> 0:10:40.360
<v Speaker 1>do you save? But like in the grand scheme of

0:10:40.360 --> 0:10:43.840
<v Speaker 1>thirty two starting quarterbacks in the NFL, he's not that good.

0:10:43.920 --> 0:10:46.240
<v Speaker 2>Do you have the precision like a Greg Maddox? Kevin,

0:10:46.360 --> 0:10:47.920
<v Speaker 2>are you hitting the fairways every time?

0:10:47.960 --> 0:10:51.319
<v Speaker 1>That I wish? I wish I was Fred Funk honestly

0:10:51.400 --> 0:10:55.520
<v Speaker 1>driving it, But whatever, that's neither hitting r there. Again,

0:10:55.640 --> 0:10:59.439
<v Speaker 1>I thought he had some nice on target in stride

0:10:59.520 --> 0:11:02.600
<v Speaker 1>moments another there about four or five of them, and

0:11:02.720 --> 0:11:05.600
<v Speaker 1>you know him and Richardson both they did not receive

0:11:06.480 --> 0:11:10.160
<v Speaker 1>very firm pocket perimeters. No, you know, Ross Travis and

0:11:10.160 --> 0:11:12.079
<v Speaker 1>Blake Freeland in there for two and a half quarters.

0:11:12.360 --> 0:11:15.000
<v Speaker 1>I did think there was some leakage there coming off

0:11:15.000 --> 0:11:17.920
<v Speaker 1>the edge. So all in all, I to summarize the

0:11:17.960 --> 0:11:19.679
<v Speaker 1>quarterback night, how do you not look at it as

0:11:19.679 --> 0:11:22.440
<v Speaker 1>a win for Daniel Jones? As sad as that sounds,

0:11:22.559 --> 0:11:25.120
<v Speaker 1>I mean, the injury and all of that plays into it.

0:11:25.200 --> 0:11:28.120
<v Speaker 1>The misidentification plays into that. Now, if I had to

0:11:28.160 --> 0:11:33.559
<v Speaker 1>evaluate purely Jones himself, I think the night was about

0:11:33.600 --> 0:11:37.679
<v Speaker 1>what we've seen so far, maybe slightly better. And you know,

0:11:38.120 --> 0:11:40.800
<v Speaker 1>when Shane Stegin says is going to come down in consistency,

0:11:42.800 --> 0:11:44.559
<v Speaker 1>I think there also is a way to look at that,

0:11:44.640 --> 0:11:45.880
<v Speaker 1>Eddie and say, it's going to come down to who

0:11:45.920 --> 0:11:51.440
<v Speaker 1>do you trust? And when that question is asked, it

0:11:51.600 --> 0:11:54.079
<v Speaker 1>is if you want to live in that bubble. Now again,

0:11:54.160 --> 0:11:56.080
<v Speaker 1>I want to live in a bubble of just getting

0:11:56.080 --> 0:11:59.559
<v Speaker 1>answer on Richardson. H Like that's it. He answer on

0:11:59.640 --> 0:12:01.199
<v Speaker 1>Richardson and you know what he happens to be the

0:12:01.280 --> 0:12:05.000
<v Speaker 1>higher ceiling quarterback, So play him. That's my thought process.

0:12:05.480 --> 0:12:08.439
<v Speaker 1>But the Colts probably live in a different thought process.

0:12:08.760 --> 0:12:10.960
<v Speaker 1>They're living in a very week to week world when

0:12:11.040 --> 0:12:14.360
<v Speaker 1>now et cetera, et cetera, all of that, and if

0:12:14.400 --> 0:12:18.040
<v Speaker 1>they do live in that world, I mean, last night

0:12:18.080 --> 0:12:20.400
<v Speaker 1>was a good night for Danion Jones. How does that sounds?

0:12:21.160 --> 0:12:23.720
<v Speaker 2>Just to summarize and wrap up here the QB thoughts

0:12:24.280 --> 0:12:29.600
<v Speaker 2>just mentioned Riley Leonard. I know there's people out there that, Yeah.

0:12:29.480 --> 0:12:31.560
<v Speaker 1>Riley definitely made plays with his legs.

0:12:33.200 --> 0:12:33.920
<v Speaker 2>He can do that.

0:12:34.240 --> 0:12:38.079
<v Speaker 1>Now, again, he did that against probably people he saw

0:12:38.320 --> 0:12:40.080
<v Speaker 1>more often than not in college. Can you do it

0:12:40.080 --> 0:12:42.480
<v Speaker 1>against you know, first team defense guys and maybe when

0:12:42.480 --> 0:12:44.839
<v Speaker 1>there's more of a scheme against you. How it made

0:12:44.840 --> 0:12:45.920
<v Speaker 1>to be seen? I thought he had a couple of

0:12:46.000 --> 0:12:47.839
<v Speaker 1>nice throws, but you know, I thought he definitely had

0:12:47.960 --> 0:12:52.000
<v Speaker 1>some inaccurate moments as well. You know, I'll continue to

0:12:52.000 --> 0:12:57.080
<v Speaker 1>stand by nice, developmental sixth round quarterback. He has massive

0:12:57.120 --> 0:13:00.439
<v Speaker 1>strides to take within the pocket. Like I've said that

0:13:00.480 --> 0:13:05.280
<v Speaker 1>like a million times about Colts quarterbacks lately. If Richardson

0:13:05.360 --> 0:13:09.720
<v Speaker 1>was out for some reason, I would go sign somebody else.

0:13:09.920 --> 0:13:12.160
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if I would want to be one

0:13:12.160 --> 0:13:15.080
<v Speaker 1>play away from life with Riley Leonard right in the

0:13:15.280 --> 0:13:17.480
<v Speaker 1>nice reasert ear form and see what you got.

0:13:17.840 --> 0:13:20.160
<v Speaker 2>For those of you that may be newer to the podcast,

0:13:20.760 --> 0:13:23.360
<v Speaker 2>my guess is during the preseason, keV will do it

0:13:23.480 --> 0:13:25.280
<v Speaker 2>continue doing it this way, like, Hey, we'll break down

0:13:25.320 --> 0:13:27.440
<v Speaker 2>the quarterbacks, then get into what you liked, what you

0:13:27.440 --> 0:13:30.000
<v Speaker 2>didn't like. I like. Of course, during the regular season

0:13:30.360 --> 0:13:32.920
<v Speaker 2>it'll just be well intro brief thoughts about the game,

0:13:33.080 --> 0:13:35.199
<v Speaker 2>get into what you liked or didn't like, depending on

0:13:35.800 --> 0:13:38.520
<v Speaker 2>how the outcome of the game went. So let's pivot

0:13:38.559 --> 0:13:42.080
<v Speaker 2>now to what you did like, even though the Coltsleus

0:13:42.120 --> 0:13:43.959
<v Speaker 2>were going to start there just because there were some

0:13:44.040 --> 0:13:45.319
<v Speaker 2>positive to takeaway from this game.

0:13:45.400 --> 0:13:48.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, let's start with Tyler Warren. Three catches and three targets,

0:13:48.720 --> 0:13:50.760
<v Speaker 1>four if you want to include the penalty. I thought

0:13:51.200 --> 0:13:54.920
<v Speaker 1>four very different routes too, And honestly, the routes that

0:13:54.960 --> 0:13:57.800
<v Speaker 1>he ran last night or the plays that he made,

0:13:58.200 --> 0:13:59.840
<v Speaker 1>I can think of like three or four other ways

0:13:59.880 --> 0:14:01.920
<v Speaker 1>they involved him at Grand Park that we didn't see

0:14:02.000 --> 0:14:03.800
<v Speaker 1>last night. I mean, they are going to get him

0:14:03.840 --> 0:14:06.560
<v Speaker 1>the ball, They're going to use him all over the field,

0:14:06.920 --> 0:14:11.599
<v Speaker 1>it's just going to be a high targeted, touched individual

0:14:11.960 --> 0:14:12.840
<v Speaker 1>by the Colts offense.

0:14:12.920 --> 0:14:15.240
<v Speaker 2>He played all twenty snaps in the first three series.

0:14:15.760 --> 0:14:18.120
<v Speaker 1>Diddy, Yeah, yeah, yeah, gosh, it seemed like he was

0:14:18.120 --> 0:14:19.440
<v Speaker 1>out there. It was a him and ogle Tree. Was

0:14:19.440 --> 0:14:21.000
<v Speaker 1>that the starting tight end? I think ogle Tree kind

0:14:21.000 --> 0:14:22.480
<v Speaker 1>of blown up a little bit on that first play,

0:14:22.480 --> 0:14:24.840
<v Speaker 1>but yeah, I think that was the starting tied in

0:14:24.960 --> 0:14:27.960
<v Speaker 1>dual last night. So yeah, very good night for Warren.

0:14:28.120 --> 0:14:31.040
<v Speaker 1>I think you like what you saw. I thought JT.

0:14:31.120 --> 0:14:36.480
<v Speaker 1>Twoymollawau had a good first debut. They his body type

0:14:36.520 --> 0:14:39.560
<v Speaker 1>is not Dio Dangbo, but they seemingly have used him

0:14:39.600 --> 0:14:44.000
<v Speaker 1>a little bit like that versatile inside on the passing downs.

0:14:44.160 --> 0:14:46.280
<v Speaker 1>You know, he was really freed up very well for

0:14:46.320 --> 0:14:49.200
<v Speaker 1>a stunt sack there at one point, but made a

0:14:49.240 --> 0:14:51.640
<v Speaker 1>couple of plays. I think Nate Atkins said bone Bruce

0:14:51.680 --> 0:14:53.440
<v Speaker 1>for him after the game and chatting with him in

0:14:53.440 --> 0:14:55.360
<v Speaker 1>the locker room. So hopefully that's not going to sideline

0:14:55.400 --> 0:14:57.960
<v Speaker 1>him for too long. But I thought the first two

0:14:58.000 --> 0:15:01.600
<v Speaker 1>picks you had to be pleased with, you know, shout

0:15:01.600 --> 0:15:06.080
<v Speaker 1>out to Ashton Doolan. I just what a nice career man.

0:15:06.840 --> 0:15:10.120
<v Speaker 1>Just he's still here, and he's still damn reliable, and

0:15:11.280 --> 0:15:13.360
<v Speaker 1>he had a couple of plays as a receiver last night,

0:15:13.400 --> 0:15:15.320
<v Speaker 1>and obviously he's a key special teamer. I mean, hell

0:15:15.400 --> 0:15:16.800
<v Speaker 1>Is College that he went to, it doesn't even have

0:15:16.800 --> 0:15:17.560
<v Speaker 1>football anymore.

0:15:18.640 --> 0:15:19.400
<v Speaker 2>Hey yeah, and.

0:15:19.400 --> 0:15:21.600
<v Speaker 1>Yet here he is just carving out a really nice

0:15:21.680 --> 0:15:24.440
<v Speaker 1>undrafted career. Good to see Jelani Woods catch a couple

0:15:24.480 --> 0:15:27.040
<v Speaker 1>from Riley Leonard late. I think it's a I think

0:15:27.040 --> 0:15:28.760
<v Speaker 1>it's a notable hill for him to climb to make

0:15:28.800 --> 0:15:31.800
<v Speaker 1>the roster. But good to see Jelani Woods out there

0:15:32.240 --> 0:15:35.920
<v Speaker 1>a little bit late. What else you know? Alex Johnson

0:15:35.960 --> 0:15:40.720
<v Speaker 1>at corner, he had that early pick, great play in

0:15:40.760 --> 0:15:43.640
<v Speaker 1>the air, and then later he knocked away a ball

0:15:43.680 --> 0:15:48.360
<v Speaker 1>and I think it was a third and ten. Right now,

0:15:49.840 --> 0:15:52.680
<v Speaker 1>he's knocking on that door, like who's next at corner?

0:15:52.680 --> 0:15:54.840
<v Speaker 1>And I guess we should probably just get to Justin

0:15:54.880 --> 0:16:00.400
<v Speaker 1>Wally Now. I just flat out sucks, just absolutely sucks.

0:16:01.640 --> 0:16:04.200
<v Speaker 1>Torn a sale in the joint practice. Shane announced it

0:16:04.240 --> 0:16:07.680
<v Speaker 1>last night after the game. I don't know in the

0:16:07.760 --> 0:16:11.160
<v Speaker 1>nine years of Chris Ballard if I've heard the amount

0:16:11.480 --> 0:16:16.840
<v Speaker 1>of public praise by various individuals within that building for him.

0:16:16.960 --> 0:16:20.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean a variety of people have made sure that

0:16:20.160 --> 0:16:22.840
<v Speaker 1>they have praised him, and you know we've seen the

0:16:22.880 --> 0:16:25.160
<v Speaker 1>playmaking too, if I'm not mistaken again, I wasn't there,

0:16:25.200 --> 0:16:28.800
<v Speaker 1>but I believe he got hurt or towards acl on

0:16:28.920 --> 0:16:32.240
<v Speaker 1>play that he knocked the ball away in the joint practice.

0:16:32.400 --> 0:16:34.520
<v Speaker 1>I mean that just kind of shows you who he's been.

0:16:34.680 --> 0:16:36.920
<v Speaker 1>So he was your starting third corner, and I don't

0:16:36.920 --> 0:16:39.760
<v Speaker 1>think there was much debate even if Jalen Jones and

0:16:39.880 --> 0:16:42.040
<v Speaker 1>Juju Brins would have stayed healthy. Now that's me projecting

0:16:42.080 --> 0:16:47.920
<v Speaker 1>a little bit, but now what happens at corner. You

0:16:47.960 --> 0:16:50.680
<v Speaker 1>know the position on paper, Eddie, you didn't have like

0:16:50.720 --> 0:16:53.520
<v Speaker 1>when we did the positional mock draft back in whatever April,

0:16:53.680 --> 0:16:57.520
<v Speaker 1>I didn't have corner as a third round need, right

0:16:58.040 --> 0:17:01.160
<v Speaker 1>And if Jalen Jones and jud Brent's were healthy right

0:17:01.200 --> 0:17:06.000
<v Speaker 1>now and have shown a nice arrow, I don't know

0:17:06.080 --> 0:17:10.720
<v Speaker 1>if I would act like the Wally injury is super significant,

0:17:11.280 --> 0:17:15.639
<v Speaker 1>but given their statuses Jones and Brents, it right now

0:17:15.760 --> 0:17:17.960
<v Speaker 1>is pretty significant. And I get that you're a month away,

0:17:18.040 --> 0:17:21.480
<v Speaker 1>you know right now, where a month yesterday was a

0:17:21.520 --> 0:17:23.920
<v Speaker 1>season opener, But you know, you think about Week one

0:17:23.960 --> 0:17:26.320
<v Speaker 1>with Tyreek Hill and Jalen Waddle and some of those

0:17:26.320 --> 0:17:28.639
<v Speaker 1>white houts early in the season and lou Ane Rumo

0:17:28.680 --> 0:17:32.399
<v Speaker 1>wanting to play multiple dbs. You know, again, what is

0:17:32.440 --> 0:17:36.080
<v Speaker 1>this going to look like over time? That I think

0:17:36.160 --> 0:17:41.159
<v Speaker 1>is a huge, huge question that you do have. So again,

0:17:41.440 --> 0:17:45.000
<v Speaker 1>this is a storyline to watch. What does corner death

0:17:45.040 --> 0:17:48.840
<v Speaker 1>look like? Is Alex Johnson pushing? Is Samuel Womack back

0:17:48.880 --> 0:17:51.680
<v Speaker 1>in an important role for you? He's probably had an

0:17:51.720 --> 0:17:54.800
<v Speaker 1>up and down camp. Jonathan Edwards a corner out of

0:17:54.840 --> 0:17:57.800
<v Speaker 1>tu Lane, an undrafted free agent, you know it, could

0:17:57.840 --> 0:18:01.440
<v Speaker 1>he be a UDFA on your roster. Johnson comes over

0:18:01.440 --> 0:18:04.080
<v Speaker 1>from New York as an undrafted kid the year prior

0:18:04.240 --> 0:18:07.679
<v Speaker 1>with Jerome Henderson who's the dB coach now with the Colts.

0:18:07.680 --> 0:18:11.840
<v Speaker 1>So that's something probably worth pointing out as well. But yeah,

0:18:11.880 --> 0:18:14.879
<v Speaker 1>I thought Johnson had a couple moments there, and honestly,

0:18:14.880 --> 0:18:16.840
<v Speaker 1>the pass defense in general, I mean John Harball was

0:18:16.880 --> 0:18:18.520
<v Speaker 1>laughing about it after the game. He goes, you think

0:18:18.680 --> 0:18:21.320
<v Speaker 1>team's ever won in a preseason game throwing for fifty

0:18:21.400 --> 0:18:25.240
<v Speaker 1>nine yards in a game, So pass defense wise, I

0:18:25.240 --> 0:18:28.200
<v Speaker 1>thought the Colts did a nice job. Joe Botchi obviously

0:18:28.200 --> 0:18:30.880
<v Speaker 1>had the big interception there early as well.

0:18:31.080 --> 0:18:32.520
<v Speaker 2>Man, he just makes place, doesn't.

0:18:32.320 --> 0:18:35.679
<v Speaker 1>He He does? He does, Yeah, particularly honestly in the

0:18:35.720 --> 0:18:36.320
<v Speaker 1>past game.

0:18:38.480 --> 0:18:43.040
<v Speaker 2>Now, bless you man.

0:18:43.040 --> 0:18:46.040
<v Speaker 1>That sneeze felt so good. Gosh, felt good to get

0:18:46.040 --> 0:18:48.439
<v Speaker 1>that out. Now it's the transition. Things I didn't like

0:18:49.080 --> 0:18:52.520
<v Speaker 1>you mentioned linebacker there. I thought the linebacker run fits

0:18:52.520 --> 0:18:55.120
<v Speaker 1>were horrid. Oh my god. The run defense was horrific,

0:18:56.000 --> 0:18:57.800
<v Speaker 1>just gash. I mean how the Ravens won the game

0:18:57.840 --> 0:19:00.400
<v Speaker 1>thanks to what running the ball and special teams. That's

0:19:00.400 --> 0:19:03.720
<v Speaker 1>pretty literally pretty much why they won the game. So yeah,

0:19:03.720 --> 0:19:09.040
<v Speaker 1>the run defense, yeah, linebacker wise, oh boy, not ideal

0:19:09.040 --> 0:19:10.840
<v Speaker 1>at all. I thought Hunter Wooler had a moment or

0:19:10.840 --> 0:19:14.040
<v Speaker 1>two and also definitely had some whiffs coming up as

0:19:14.080 --> 0:19:17.320
<v Speaker 1>a safety and playing against the run there, special teams,

0:19:17.359 --> 0:19:19.919
<v Speaker 1>the coverage. Brian Mason is not going to like watching

0:19:19.920 --> 0:19:20.359
<v Speaker 1>that film.

0:19:21.680 --> 0:19:21.879
<v Speaker 2>You know.

0:19:22.080 --> 0:19:28.000
<v Speaker 1>The big punt return, the big kick return, just brutal, brutal, brutal, brutal,

0:19:28.840 --> 0:19:34.560
<v Speaker 1>one hundred and eight yards and penalties Eddie, that is

0:19:35.960 --> 0:19:39.840
<v Speaker 1>that would be by far a season high if we

0:19:39.880 --> 0:19:42.639
<v Speaker 1>want to look back on last year. So that is

0:19:42.680 --> 0:19:45.399
<v Speaker 1>something as well, just to keep an eye on You know,

0:19:45.440 --> 0:19:49.000
<v Speaker 1>Colts have usually not been a very penalized team under Stanstichen,

0:19:49.680 --> 0:19:52.000
<v Speaker 1>but he was not happy about that post game and

0:19:52.040 --> 0:19:55.000
<v Speaker 1>he shouldn't have been, you know, gool hat a couple

0:19:55.000 --> 0:19:57.840
<v Speaker 1>of drops. I really don't can't recall many, if any,

0:19:57.880 --> 0:19:59.239
<v Speaker 1>he's had in camp. He's been one of the more

0:19:59.240 --> 0:20:02.680
<v Speaker 1>productive white outs in camp, so i'd throw that in there.

0:20:02.880 --> 0:20:07.280
<v Speaker 1>The eighty Mitchell Knight, I don't know, Eddie. It's he

0:20:07.520 --> 0:20:10.160
<v Speaker 1>catches on six targets, two catches on six targets, which

0:20:10.200 --> 0:20:16.399
<v Speaker 1>that ratio is not good. I don't think it was

0:20:16.440 --> 0:20:18.960
<v Speaker 1>as egregious of a night for Mitchell as it looked

0:20:19.000 --> 0:20:21.120
<v Speaker 1>on paper, though, Like if you didn't watch the game

0:20:21.119 --> 0:20:23.280
<v Speaker 1>and you see two on six, you don't like that.

0:20:24.040 --> 0:20:28.040
<v Speaker 1>If you watch the game again. You brought up Jones

0:20:28.080 --> 0:20:30.919
<v Speaker 1>kind of slightly under throwing them. I thought there were

0:20:31.000 --> 0:20:34.000
<v Speaker 1>a couple fifty a couple of plays it could have

0:20:34.000 --> 0:20:36.800
<v Speaker 1>been flagged. It turned into fifty to fifty moments. I'd

0:20:37.000 --> 0:20:39.280
<v Speaker 1>like to see him come down with one of those,

0:20:40.680 --> 0:20:43.000
<v Speaker 1>but again I'm not I don't think it was as

0:20:43.160 --> 0:20:45.720
<v Speaker 1>bad as it was at times last year, and just

0:20:45.800 --> 0:20:48.000
<v Speaker 1>a little bit of a timing with Jones one time there,

0:20:48.080 --> 0:20:51.200
<v Speaker 1>So you know, before the game, I really wanted to

0:20:51.240 --> 0:20:55.040
<v Speaker 1>see Mitchell in like those alligatory arm moments. I wanted

0:20:55.040 --> 0:20:57.640
<v Speaker 1>to see him put into those situations, and I don't

0:20:57.640 --> 0:21:01.199
<v Speaker 1>think he was in a lot of them. So you know,

0:21:01.240 --> 0:21:05.520
<v Speaker 1>he's been terrific Mitchell, but game settings is just a

0:21:05.520 --> 0:21:08.280
<v Speaker 1>different animal for him. So I think that probably covers

0:21:08.320 --> 0:21:12.800
<v Speaker 1>everything on my end. Eddie Again, offensive tackles I Ryman

0:21:12.840 --> 0:21:15.119
<v Speaker 1>and Bradsmith are just going to mean so much for you.

0:21:15.840 --> 0:21:18.399
<v Speaker 1>That does concern me a little bit here. But unless

0:21:18.440 --> 0:21:20.480
<v Speaker 1>you think you have anything else to add, I guess

0:21:20.560 --> 0:21:24.160
<v Speaker 1>should we talk a little Spencer Trader? Yeah, to mention

0:21:24.280 --> 0:21:29.200
<v Speaker 1>it weirdly, I bet he's I bet I've seen him kick.

0:21:29.280 --> 0:21:32.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't know twenty field goals this this camp in season,

0:21:32.880 --> 0:21:38.280
<v Speaker 1>I bet he's made sixteen of them. I'd venture to

0:21:38.280 --> 0:21:41.720
<v Speaker 1>guess all the misses have been maybe all but one

0:21:41.760 --> 0:21:43.760
<v Speaker 1>have been north of fifty, and I swear they all

0:21:43.800 --> 0:21:46.840
<v Speaker 1>have been off the upright now, I know he missed one.

0:21:46.880 --> 0:21:49.800
<v Speaker 1>I think a little bad to end the Baltimore joint

0:21:49.840 --> 0:21:52.080
<v Speaker 1>practice based off a two minute drill that I was

0:21:52.200 --> 0:21:54.480
<v Speaker 1>reading about from people that were there, so that one

0:21:54.520 --> 0:21:57.440
<v Speaker 1>would be different, but like all this misses. I mean

0:21:57.640 --> 0:22:00.840
<v Speaker 1>I literally feel like I'm watching Matt Gay kick. I

0:22:00.880 --> 0:22:04.040
<v Speaker 1>mean like outside of them, like not having anywhere to

0:22:04.080 --> 0:22:04.920
<v Speaker 1>have the same body type.

0:22:04.960 --> 0:22:07.040
<v Speaker 2>Well, look he learned from him. When do you expect Jev?

0:22:07.280 --> 0:22:09.199
<v Speaker 2>But it's like it's been like the same exact.

0:22:09.440 --> 0:22:11.880
<v Speaker 1>I guess Matt Gay had that big hook going last year,

0:22:12.320 --> 0:22:14.280
<v Speaker 1>whereas I guess he'll kind of a slight one last

0:22:14.359 --> 0:22:17.000
<v Speaker 1>night for those that watch to miss kick, but great

0:22:17.000 --> 0:22:19.320
<v Speaker 1>opportunity kick for field goals last night. I think he's

0:22:19.359 --> 0:22:21.479
<v Speaker 1>the leader. I think he'll be your kicker and then

0:22:21.480 --> 0:22:23.800
<v Speaker 1>you just kind of wait and see his season moves along.

0:22:23.880 --> 0:22:26.119
<v Speaker 2>Hit one from fifty three right, Yes, had plenty of

0:22:26.160 --> 0:22:26.800
<v Speaker 2>leg left.

0:22:26.720 --> 0:22:28.560
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean leg is no, I mean no, leg

0:22:28.640 --> 0:22:30.960
<v Speaker 1>is no issue. This is not hot rod where you're like, wait,

0:22:31.160 --> 0:22:32.399
<v Speaker 1>does he have the leg or does he not of

0:22:32.440 --> 0:22:32.720
<v Speaker 1>the leg?

0:22:32.800 --> 0:22:32.919
<v Speaker 2>No?

0:22:32.920 --> 0:22:35.439
<v Speaker 1>No, no, no, he he can boom it. It's just

0:22:36.440 --> 0:22:39.640
<v Speaker 1>you know what's going to happen when it all gets real.

0:22:39.720 --> 0:22:41.119
<v Speaker 1>And you know the one he missed last night. They

0:22:41.119 --> 0:22:42.600
<v Speaker 1>threw him out there kind of in a two minutes.

0:22:42.600 --> 0:22:45.560
<v Speaker 1>You know, probably the more pressure packed kick and you know,

0:22:45.560 --> 0:22:47.119
<v Speaker 1>snap and hold looked good. But you know, you kind

0:22:47.160 --> 0:22:48.560
<v Speaker 1>of ran them out on the field and all of that,

0:22:48.720 --> 0:22:51.960
<v Speaker 1>so I assume he will be your kicker.

0:22:53.119 --> 0:22:55.840
<v Speaker 2>Before we get into Twitter questions, the remaining camp schedule

0:22:55.880 --> 0:23:00.479
<v Speaker 2>will practice Saturday, Sunday, Monday, and then they're off until thirdday, right,

0:23:00.480 --> 0:23:03.159
<v Speaker 2>and that'll be the final training kit practice with the

0:23:03.160 --> 0:23:05.480
<v Speaker 2>Green Bay Packers at Grand Park. And that one is

0:23:05.520 --> 0:23:08.320
<v Speaker 2>a three o'clock and I think I know Saturday and

0:23:08.359 --> 0:23:10.160
<v Speaker 2>Sunday or four o'clocks. I can't remember. Monday.

0:23:10.560 --> 0:23:12.439
<v Speaker 1>Monday is as well, So yeah, they're done with the

0:23:12.480 --> 0:23:15.360
<v Speaker 1>morning practices. Yeah, Saturday, Sunday, Monday. As you said, Eddie,

0:23:15.359 --> 0:23:17.399
<v Speaker 1>four o'clock each day. I would guess Saturday is a

0:23:17.400 --> 0:23:19.600
<v Speaker 1>little light and then Sunday and Monday would be a

0:23:19.640 --> 0:23:22.800
<v Speaker 1>little bit more ramped up. Tuesday and Wednesday or off,

0:23:23.440 --> 0:23:25.680
<v Speaker 1>so then you recharge the batteries for like you said,

0:23:25.680 --> 0:23:28.520
<v Speaker 1>that green Bay joint, it sounded like on this broadcast

0:23:28.560 --> 0:23:30.720
<v Speaker 1>last night, Kenny Moore kind of hinted at like he's

0:23:30.720 --> 0:23:32.160
<v Speaker 1>going to get out there for the Green Bay game.

0:23:32.600 --> 0:23:34.119
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if that was just him talking or

0:23:34.119 --> 0:23:38.560
<v Speaker 1>if that's real, because Shane's always been like, if we

0:23:38.600 --> 0:23:40.320
<v Speaker 1>have jointed practice we're not going to play those guys,

0:23:40.400 --> 0:23:42.800
<v Speaker 1>right and they sat. I think I did the math

0:23:42.920 --> 0:23:47.440
<v Speaker 1>last night and I'll use this quotes Eddie. They had

0:23:47.600 --> 0:23:51.280
<v Speaker 1>three defensive starters a lot too, and Quity pay played

0:23:51.280 --> 0:23:53.400
<v Speaker 1>a series and then cammer Groan right now, is listen

0:23:53.440 --> 0:23:56.920
<v Speaker 1>as a starter? Offensively? If you call Richardson a starter,

0:23:57.080 --> 0:24:00.800
<v Speaker 1>you had four I think Richardson, Tyler, Warren, hannerh Bordolini

0:24:00.840 --> 0:24:06.720
<v Speaker 1>and Mackenzlvos. So you played about six ish starters there.

0:24:07.440 --> 0:24:09.199
<v Speaker 1>You know me, I've always been a believer that you

0:24:09.200 --> 0:24:10.119
<v Speaker 1>play more of those guys.

0:24:10.400 --> 0:24:10.640
<v Speaker 2>Yep.

0:24:11.160 --> 0:24:13.640
<v Speaker 1>But I'm not holding my breath at all.

0:24:14.320 --> 0:24:17.639
<v Speaker 2>Let's get into Twitter questions because our first one, uh

0:24:17.680 --> 0:24:20.880
<v Speaker 2>pertains towards the offensive line. This is from Claude KB.

0:24:21.560 --> 0:24:25.080
<v Speaker 2>Was Anthony Richardson at fault for that sack or the organization?

0:24:25.400 --> 0:24:28.680
<v Speaker 2>Should he have been out there with the second unit?

0:24:29.280 --> 0:24:32.000
<v Speaker 2>Or is that a blown protection? Yeah?

0:24:32.040 --> 0:24:35.560
<v Speaker 1>I mean, by all accounts, it was blown by Anthony Richardson.

0:24:35.600 --> 0:24:38.120
<v Speaker 1>If you watch that play, I think the other tens

0:24:38.160 --> 0:24:40.840
<v Speaker 1>seem to be pretty much on the same page, you know,

0:24:40.960 --> 0:24:43.919
<v Speaker 1>Is any of this Hanner, BORDERLINI, Anthony Richardson not on

0:24:43.920 --> 0:24:47.800
<v Speaker 1>the same page, you know? Yeah, is the center controlling

0:24:47.840 --> 0:24:50.040
<v Speaker 1>that and or is that just something that you just

0:24:50.119 --> 0:24:52.880
<v Speaker 1>id and you don't even communicate it together, you know, like, hey,

0:24:52.920 --> 0:24:54.960
<v Speaker 1>we have to be on the same page. We don't

0:24:55.000 --> 0:24:57.280
<v Speaker 1>need to have a dummy check or whatever. A call

0:24:57.320 --> 0:25:00.240
<v Speaker 1>to the line that gets us on the same page. Again,

0:25:00.240 --> 0:25:02.000
<v Speaker 1>I pointed out, if you look at it, the three

0:25:02.080 --> 0:25:04.480
<v Speaker 1>rookies on that playoff seem to know what they're doing there,

0:25:05.480 --> 0:25:09.800
<v Speaker 1>and you know Richardson doesn't there, so you know, organizationally,

0:25:09.800 --> 0:25:11.560
<v Speaker 1>I guess Claude's kind of hinting at do you play

0:25:11.560 --> 0:25:13.520
<v Speaker 1>your frontline guys? Again, I don't think that all of

0:25:13.560 --> 0:25:15.120
<v Speaker 1>a sudden cures that play.

0:25:15.560 --> 0:25:15.720
<v Speaker 2>But.

0:25:18.960 --> 0:25:22.879
<v Speaker 1>Outside of Taylor, I probably wouldn't have too many issues

0:25:22.920 --> 0:25:29.120
<v Speaker 1>playing anybody else offensively. I mean, guys can get rolled

0:25:29.200 --> 0:25:30.639
<v Speaker 1>up on at any moment.

0:25:30.760 --> 0:25:31.000
<v Speaker 2>Yep.

0:25:31.200 --> 0:25:34.359
<v Speaker 1>I mean Rashaun Slater loses the season yesterday in practice, Yep,

0:25:34.440 --> 0:25:34.760
<v Speaker 1>you know it.

0:25:34.960 --> 0:25:38.760
<v Speaker 2>Just see CJ. Gardner Johnson looks like the same. Yeah,

0:25:39.200 --> 0:25:40.840
<v Speaker 2>you just never know.

0:25:42.600 --> 0:25:44.399
<v Speaker 1>And Joe Wright, who you heard on the broadcast last night.

0:25:44.440 --> 0:25:45.919
<v Speaker 1>I mean he's always said this, He's like, you got

0:25:45.960 --> 0:25:49.080
<v Speaker 1>a spar as an offensivelignment, Like you have got to

0:25:49.160 --> 0:25:56.119
<v Speaker 1>get into those settings and experience it, so you know,

0:25:57.280 --> 0:26:00.840
<v Speaker 1>we will see. If I don't know, do you what

0:26:00.880 --> 0:26:02.360
<v Speaker 1>do you think they do week three of the preseason.

0:26:02.400 --> 0:26:04.800
<v Speaker 1>Let's say they throw Richardson out there quarter and a

0:26:04.840 --> 0:26:07.320
<v Speaker 1>half green Bay. What do you think they do for

0:26:07.359 --> 0:26:11.560
<v Speaker 1>that Cincinnati game? No joint practice before Cincinnati, you're done

0:26:11.560 --> 0:26:14.560
<v Speaker 1>with training camp. What do you do that Saturday night,

0:26:14.640 --> 0:26:15.640
<v Speaker 1>final preseason game?

0:26:17.080 --> 0:26:19.800
<v Speaker 2>That's a good question. I would assume that it would

0:26:19.840 --> 0:26:22.040
<v Speaker 2>hope that you would play the entire starting unit at

0:26:22.119 --> 0:26:25.800
<v Speaker 2>least for a series or two and then let Richardson

0:26:25.880 --> 0:26:29.320
<v Speaker 2>go out there with whatever you want the second unit,

0:26:29.480 --> 0:26:30.440
<v Speaker 2>whatever the case may be.

0:26:33.720 --> 0:26:36.080
<v Speaker 1>Do you name a starter after the Green Bay game

0:26:36.280 --> 0:26:39.480
<v Speaker 1>a week from Saturday and you dress rehearsal that dude

0:26:40.560 --> 0:26:43.600
<v Speaker 1>in that final preseason game? No, so you carry the

0:26:43.600 --> 0:26:45.120
<v Speaker 1>competition out through the Cincinnati game.

0:26:45.119 --> 0:26:47.560
<v Speaker 2>I would, yeah, just because look what happened last night,

0:26:47.720 --> 0:26:49.320
<v Speaker 2>Like you can name richard and the start of going

0:26:49.320 --> 0:26:51.000
<v Speaker 2>into that Cincinnati game for week one and then he

0:26:51.040 --> 0:26:51.480
<v Speaker 2>gets hurt.

0:26:52.560 --> 0:26:55.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I'll be very curious see what Shane Second does

0:26:56.480 --> 0:26:56.760
<v Speaker 1>with that.

0:26:58.359 --> 0:27:02.439
<v Speaker 2>Twitter. Question Number two is from Wakespy. Hypothetically, if Anthony

0:27:02.520 --> 0:27:07.119
<v Speaker 2>Richardson doesn't paint out and Daniel Jones doesn't pan out either.

0:27:07.680 --> 0:27:11.000
<v Speaker 2>Wake Spike says, really big stretch there. What three cults

0:27:11.240 --> 0:27:15.520
<v Speaker 2>do you think the organization would try to trade ahead

0:27:15.560 --> 0:27:19.399
<v Speaker 2>of twenty twenty six, assuming they hold richardson no matter

0:27:19.480 --> 0:27:21.639
<v Speaker 2>what for next season.

0:27:28.720 --> 0:27:32.280
<v Speaker 3>Look's got a loaded one.

0:27:32.280 --> 0:27:36.679
<v Speaker 1>With a new GM. Everybody's on the table, right yep,

0:27:38.720 --> 0:27:40.879
<v Speaker 1>I mean the immediate ones that would come to mind. Obviously,

0:27:40.920 --> 0:27:43.840
<v Speaker 1>anytime you get a running back of Taylor's age and

0:27:43.920 --> 0:27:46.479
<v Speaker 1>making that money, Yep, that'd be a contract year for him.

0:27:46.520 --> 0:27:49.119
<v Speaker 1>If I'm not mistaken. A Pittman would also be in

0:27:49.160 --> 0:27:52.000
<v Speaker 1>a contract year. We've talked about the wide out future,

0:27:52.240 --> 0:27:56.399
<v Speaker 1>especially if Mitchell shows you something. I think you largely

0:27:57.000 --> 0:27:59.680
<v Speaker 1>you know those the old line guys. Obviously Braden Smith

0:27:59.720 --> 0:28:03.520
<v Speaker 1>would be a free agent, but Nelson, and I guess

0:28:03.520 --> 0:28:04.960
<v Speaker 1>Nelson might be doing an extension.

0:28:04.960 --> 0:28:07.320
<v Speaker 2>But you know, certainly Ryman isn't Nelson want to be

0:28:07.359 --> 0:28:09.439
<v Speaker 2>in a contract year next year as well? I remember

0:28:09.480 --> 0:28:14.040
<v Speaker 2>him being like an underrated guy could get Yeah.

0:28:13.560 --> 0:28:17.200
<v Speaker 1>Now I think you would want I mean you theoretically,

0:28:17.200 --> 0:28:18.919
<v Speaker 1>if you're having a new quarterback, I think you'd kind

0:28:18.920 --> 0:28:21.600
<v Speaker 1>of want a solid offensive line. So I'd say Taylor Pittman,

0:28:21.640 --> 0:28:23.680
<v Speaker 1>and then defensively, really all those guys are kind of

0:28:23.680 --> 0:28:26.960
<v Speaker 1>in the same boat. Buckner up there in age, Grover

0:28:27.040 --> 0:28:28.600
<v Speaker 1>up there in age, I are up there in age,

0:28:28.680 --> 0:28:33.040
<v Speaker 1>Kenny up there in age. Obviously various value. Get Ward,

0:28:33.160 --> 0:28:36.680
<v Speaker 1>yeah he is, he's one as well. So yeah, i'd

0:28:36.680 --> 0:28:40.120
<v Speaker 1>say Taylor, Pittman, and then I don't know, Buckner, probably Nette,

0:28:40.200 --> 0:28:43.240
<v Speaker 1>although he's in his thirties. Ward probably net a good amount.

0:28:45.280 --> 0:28:48.200
<v Speaker 1>But I am I mean, I'm always pretty much a

0:28:48.200 --> 0:28:50.760
<v Speaker 1>believer that I answer the phone on anybody just to

0:28:50.800 --> 0:28:55.040
<v Speaker 1>get intel. But who would be safe, you know again,

0:28:55.080 --> 0:28:58.240
<v Speaker 1>outside of winning, probably a solid offensive line for that

0:28:58.280 --> 0:29:01.360
<v Speaker 1>next quarterback. I could be talked into a lot of things.

0:29:01.520 --> 0:29:03.560
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I'm assuming the players that you would deem

0:29:03.600 --> 0:29:09.560
<v Speaker 2>as safe would be Warren Downs and Ryman. Down's probably lesser,

0:29:09.680 --> 0:29:12.680
<v Speaker 2>the lesser of the three, just because I mean, I

0:29:12.680 --> 0:29:14.960
<v Speaker 2>feel like slot receivers ones too, and.

0:29:14.920 --> 0:29:18.240
<v Speaker 1>I think Nelson. I mean, like again, I i'd want

0:29:18.320 --> 0:29:22.000
<v Speaker 1>some continuity behind that or in front of I guess

0:29:22.040 --> 0:29:25.840
<v Speaker 1>I should say that quarterback there, But boy, if you

0:29:25.960 --> 0:29:28.680
<v Speaker 1>I mean, if you gave me the right asking price, yeah,

0:29:29.160 --> 0:29:30.479
<v Speaker 1>hell yeah.

0:29:30.080 --> 0:29:32.840
<v Speaker 2>Neil would like to know KB if Ady Mitchell still

0:29:32.920 --> 0:29:37.120
<v Speaker 2>has an underwhelming season. Is he going to be another

0:29:37.240 --> 0:29:40.760
<v Speaker 2>Paris Campbell, another high draft pick that is a dud?

0:29:41.120 --> 0:29:45.280
<v Speaker 1>No? No, first off, Unfortunately, the Paris Campbell thing has

0:29:45.320 --> 0:29:48.920
<v Speaker 1>been well at least here was largely injured related. I

0:29:48.920 --> 0:29:50.240
<v Speaker 1>saw just got cut by Dallas.

0:29:50.240 --> 0:29:52.600
<v Speaker 2>I think he got hurt. Did he get hurt? Yeah?

0:29:52.640 --> 0:29:53.280
<v Speaker 2>And then he got cut.

0:29:55.080 --> 0:29:57.520
<v Speaker 1>He was he Philly recently with Sirianni.

0:29:57.840 --> 0:30:01.080
<v Speaker 2>He was. Yeah, he was a arrest in the super Bowl.

0:30:01.600 --> 0:30:05.360
<v Speaker 1>As wild as that sounds, yeah, I think it's you know,

0:30:05.400 --> 0:30:09.480
<v Speaker 1>it's injuries for Campbell largely compared to whatever with Mitchell,

0:30:09.520 --> 0:30:11.920
<v Speaker 1>and like, can we pump the breaks on this Mitchell thing?

0:30:11.960 --> 0:30:13.320
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I feel like I've gotten these sorts of

0:30:13.400 --> 0:30:15.840
<v Speaker 1>questions several times. It's like, guy, he's been lead for

0:30:15.840 --> 0:30:20.520
<v Speaker 1>one year. I mean, you're letting Jelanne Woods play out

0:30:20.520 --> 0:30:27.040
<v Speaker 1>of his rookie contract. Mitchell is not going anywhere. And

0:30:27.120 --> 0:30:30.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, again, he's doing the he's arguably doing the

0:30:30.560 --> 0:30:32.800
<v Speaker 1>hardest thing that there is to play receiver, and that's

0:30:32.840 --> 0:30:37.680
<v Speaker 1>get open. And this is kind of, you know, popped

0:30:37.680 --> 0:30:39.240
<v Speaker 1>in my mind. I don't know, Eddie, maybe once we

0:30:39.280 --> 0:30:41.760
<v Speaker 1>get through the preseason, we can kind of dedicate a

0:30:41.760 --> 0:30:44.880
<v Speaker 1>segment of a future podcast before the season starts to this,

0:30:46.240 --> 0:30:49.040
<v Speaker 1>how do the twenty twenty five Colts make the playoffs?

0:30:49.880 --> 0:30:54.320
<v Speaker 1>That general question. When that question is asked, you would

0:30:54.440 --> 0:30:57.640
<v Speaker 1>immediately probably point to two areas, if not both better

0:30:57.720 --> 0:31:03.080
<v Speaker 1>quarterback play and better defensive play. And again the thought

0:31:03.080 --> 0:31:07.120
<v Speaker 1>of quarterback is Daniel Jones' arrival. Richardson makes year three strides.

0:31:07.440 --> 0:31:11.040
<v Speaker 1>The thought defensively is investments in the secondary like you've

0:31:11.040 --> 0:31:15.720
<v Speaker 1>never had. And Lou and Rumo, I'd say third on

0:31:15.800 --> 0:31:21.960
<v Speaker 1>that list is better pass catching. You brought up downs

0:31:21.960 --> 0:31:25.080
<v Speaker 1>in Pierce earlier. They make you sleep just fine at night.

0:31:25.520 --> 0:31:28.800
<v Speaker 1>They were good individual players for you last year. Now

0:31:28.840 --> 0:31:30.600
<v Speaker 1>go to the next part of the pass catching group.

0:31:31.720 --> 0:31:35.840
<v Speaker 1>To me, I look at three areas. One is does

0:31:35.880 --> 0:31:39.360
<v Speaker 1>Michael Pittman Junior not look like me with his back? Okay,

0:31:39.520 --> 0:31:41.080
<v Speaker 1>that could be one healthier Pittman and.

0:31:41.120 --> 0:31:45.360
<v Speaker 2>He's still caught what seventy balls or eight hundred yards exactly?

0:31:45.600 --> 0:31:51.000
<v Speaker 1>Two? Does Ady Mitchell have growth? And then three is,

0:31:51.040 --> 0:31:54.400
<v Speaker 1>of course the man we saw last night number eighty four. Yeah,

0:31:54.440 --> 0:31:58.400
<v Speaker 1>his pure presence. So those are three different areas Pittman, health,

0:31:58.680 --> 0:32:02.560
<v Speaker 1>Mitchell growth, Warren's arrival. If you get one or two

0:32:02.600 --> 0:32:05.320
<v Speaker 1>of those, you had none of them last year. If

0:32:05.360 --> 0:32:07.880
<v Speaker 1>you get one or two of them of the three,

0:32:08.480 --> 0:32:09.760
<v Speaker 1>that's a better pass catching group.

0:32:10.000 --> 0:32:10.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:32:10.280 --> 0:32:12.320
<v Speaker 1>So again that is another part of Okay, how do

0:32:12.400 --> 0:32:13.880
<v Speaker 1>the Colts become a playoff team?

0:32:14.000 --> 0:32:14.360
<v Speaker 2>All right?

0:32:14.480 --> 0:32:16.920
<v Speaker 1>Some people might be skeptical quarterback wise, fine, some people

0:32:17.040 --> 0:32:19.040
<v Speaker 1>might be skeptical defensively.

0:32:19.040 --> 0:32:20.160
<v Speaker 2>Fine.

0:32:20.240 --> 0:32:22.400
<v Speaker 1>The pass catching thing, I can you know, if you

0:32:22.480 --> 0:32:24.960
<v Speaker 1>are Chris Ballard and you say, Kevin Bowen, sit down

0:32:24.960 --> 0:32:26.160
<v Speaker 1>and let me tell you why we're going to be

0:32:26.160 --> 0:32:28.080
<v Speaker 1>a better team this season, and he laid out the

0:32:28.120 --> 0:32:30.640
<v Speaker 1>pass catchers like that, I think I'd walk away from

0:32:30.680 --> 0:32:33.120
<v Speaker 1>that same. That makes a ton of sense. Yeah, I

0:32:33.160 --> 0:32:35.040
<v Speaker 1>can see where you're coming from on that. And again,

0:32:35.120 --> 0:32:39.520
<v Speaker 1>my eyes have watched Mitchell. Pittman kind of been quiet,

0:32:39.600 --> 0:32:43.320
<v Speaker 1>but I've watched Mitchell, and I've watched Warren, and I

0:32:43.360 --> 0:32:45.040
<v Speaker 1>see where you're going from.

0:32:45.160 --> 0:32:46.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. I was talking with somebody on the sidelines that

0:32:47.400 --> 0:32:49.560
<v Speaker 2>you know that one of those practices I was at,

0:32:49.560 --> 0:32:52.120
<v Speaker 2>and they're just I was like, hey, how's Pittman looked?

0:32:52.160 --> 0:32:54.080
<v Speaker 2>You know, he's he was last years the back he goes,

0:32:54.120 --> 0:32:55.960
<v Speaker 2>I mean he hasn't really done a lot, like he

0:32:56.000 --> 0:32:58.000
<v Speaker 2>hasn't flushed. I was like, yeah, that's also true because

0:32:58.160 --> 0:32:59.880
<v Speaker 2>Pittman's a gamer. He's not gonna be a guy that's

0:33:00.240 --> 0:33:02.760
<v Speaker 2>camp wowser. I mean his flash, Yeah, to your point,

0:33:02.800 --> 0:33:04.440
<v Speaker 2>his flash. He's more of a you out of the

0:33:04.440 --> 0:33:06.280
<v Speaker 2>box sports end of the game and you're like, oh wow.

0:33:06.560 --> 0:33:09.880
<v Speaker 1>Or honestly, he flashesn't make him like a physical plays

0:33:09.920 --> 0:33:11.360
<v Speaker 1>like yeah, did you see that hit he took.

0:33:11.640 --> 0:33:17.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, someone's gonna add it. I forget. So move along

0:33:17.200 --> 0:33:20.800
<v Speaker 2>to Mark's question or questions. I should say, how did

0:33:20.880 --> 0:33:24.280
<v Speaker 2>Juju Brins look prior to his hamstring injury? Kevin, what

0:33:24.480 --> 0:33:27.880
<v Speaker 2>is your level of confidence with the secondary? Seems like

0:33:27.920 --> 0:33:30.560
<v Speaker 2>the Colts have their top three corners and justin Wally,

0:33:30.640 --> 0:33:33.440
<v Speaker 2>Chevarius Word and Kinney Moo right now unfortunately for while

0:33:33.480 --> 0:33:37.400
<v Speaker 2>he is out for the season. Uh to have Juju Brince,

0:33:37.440 --> 0:33:41.960
<v Speaker 2>Samuel Wilmack and Jalen Jones whenever Jones returns his quality

0:33:42.040 --> 0:33:45.600
<v Speaker 2>depth In Mark's opinion, curious to hear your thoughts. Love

0:33:45.680 --> 0:33:49.320
<v Speaker 2>the pod and I'm happy we're back. We're almost here.

0:33:49.680 --> 0:33:51.760
<v Speaker 1>Indeed, Mark, less than a month away. How about we

0:33:51.760 --> 0:33:56.200
<v Speaker 1>get three top ten matchups in college football on opening weekend.

0:33:56.200 --> 0:33:57.960
<v Speaker 1>I thought I heard that was the first time ever

0:33:58.360 --> 0:34:02.240
<v Speaker 1>one versus two. Of course stateon Texas you'll get LSU Clemson,

0:34:02.280 --> 0:34:06.120
<v Speaker 1>and then you'll get the old fighting Irish against Miami.

0:34:06.200 --> 0:34:09.799
<v Speaker 1>There the top five team, a top ten, top ten,

0:34:09.880 --> 0:34:12.680
<v Speaker 1>top ten. Pretty sure, double check me on that if

0:34:12.680 --> 0:34:16.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm wrong. Boy, I've always liked Jalen Jones man, and

0:34:16.560 --> 0:34:20.800
<v Speaker 1>I thought Jalen Jones was having a nice little camp. Yeah,

0:34:21.239 --> 0:34:22.640
<v Speaker 1>put all these little sticker things.

0:34:22.640 --> 0:34:26.040
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, she's gonna get mad that you're peeling it off.

0:34:31.160 --> 0:34:34.640
<v Speaker 1>I thought he was making some plays. Now again, he's

0:34:34.640 --> 0:34:37.120
<v Speaker 1>a little different corner than Wally. Him and Juju are

0:34:37.120 --> 0:34:41.239
<v Speaker 1>different than Wally mm hm. So you know, Juju maybe

0:34:41.280 --> 0:34:44.280
<v Speaker 1>a couple of plays there, But I think the Bummers

0:34:44.400 --> 0:34:47.200
<v Speaker 1>just on paper, you have created real debt. Now, Like

0:34:47.320 --> 0:34:50.000
<v Speaker 1>let's say Jones and Brent show up for you and

0:34:50.040 --> 0:34:55.480
<v Speaker 1>they're healthy. Boy, Samuel Womack, you know the lottery numbers

0:34:55.520 --> 0:34:59.080
<v Speaker 1>on for me. If if Juju Brents is staying.

0:34:58.800 --> 0:35:01.680
<v Speaker 2>Healthy, Samuel Woman is your fifth corner. That's an improvement

0:35:01.719 --> 0:35:04.600
<v Speaker 2>from last year. And you got Chris Lamon still right, Yeah.

0:35:04.400 --> 0:35:08.640
<v Speaker 1>They re signed Lamon. Are they about Lamon's back? Last week?

0:35:08.640 --> 0:35:10.359
<v Speaker 1>We got a couple of those guys that came over

0:35:10.360 --> 0:35:14.360
<v Speaker 1>from Jerome Henderson with the Giants as well, Trey Herndon. Yeah,

0:35:14.360 --> 0:35:16.440
<v Speaker 1>but they I mean they barely Duke Shelley. I think

0:35:16.440 --> 0:35:20.040
<v Speaker 1>they barely played last year. And we mentioned Alex Johnson earlier,

0:35:20.120 --> 0:35:23.120
<v Speaker 1>Jonathan Edwards earlier. So you know, corner again, do you

0:35:23.120 --> 0:35:24.520
<v Speaker 1>do the same thing you did last year? Is it

0:35:24.560 --> 0:35:28.319
<v Speaker 1>a cut down position? Remember Walmack was there one waiver

0:35:28.400 --> 0:35:32.360
<v Speaker 1>claim last year, So is that something that you dabble

0:35:32.400 --> 0:35:36.000
<v Speaker 1>in again? But yeah, I will be very curious to

0:35:36.040 --> 0:35:41.240
<v Speaker 1>see when do Jones and Brents get back because that's needed.

0:35:41.280 --> 0:35:42.719
<v Speaker 1>And you know Ward has been kind of off and

0:35:42.760 --> 0:35:45.719
<v Speaker 1>on in terms of his availability here. You know, is

0:35:45.719 --> 0:35:48.080
<v Speaker 1>that just kind of management this time of year? And

0:35:48.760 --> 0:35:50.560
<v Speaker 1>well you really need him and Kenny to play. If

0:35:50.560 --> 0:35:56.040
<v Speaker 1>we've redid indispensable colts. What did I have was my list?

0:35:56.400 --> 0:36:01.680
<v Speaker 1>Ryman Zaire? Did I have a corner that hot? Maybe

0:36:01.719 --> 0:36:04.719
<v Speaker 1>I did have Ward that high. Yeah, you can make

0:36:04.719 --> 0:36:06.960
<v Speaker 1>an argument to put Ward and Kenny both in your

0:36:06.960 --> 0:36:07.399
<v Speaker 1>top five.

0:36:08.680 --> 0:36:10.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think it was a little different than you

0:36:10.480 --> 0:36:12.760
<v Speaker 2>I have I remember having a law too. I had Bernard,

0:36:12.800 --> 0:36:16.000
<v Speaker 2>I had Nelson. I can't remember if I put Braydon

0:36:16.000 --> 0:36:16.560
<v Speaker 2>on there or not.

0:36:16.640 --> 0:36:18.879
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, I think he did.

0:36:19.440 --> 0:36:23.319
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Yeah. Final questions from Josh. We often talk about

0:36:23.360 --> 0:36:26.080
<v Speaker 2>Anthony Richardson having a high ceiling but a low floor.

0:36:26.600 --> 0:36:29.360
<v Speaker 2>I'm curious what you actually think his ceiling looks like

0:36:29.880 --> 0:36:33.280
<v Speaker 2>after a couple of years. Obviously, all the physical tools

0:36:33.280 --> 0:36:36.000
<v Speaker 2>are there and health is a concern, but I think

0:36:36.160 --> 0:36:39.239
<v Speaker 2>I'm most curious about your opinion on the mental and

0:36:39.400 --> 0:36:43.440
<v Speaker 2>intangible side of Anthony Richardson. Is there any precedent for

0:36:43.480 --> 0:36:48.360
<v Speaker 2>a quarterback developing that to a championship level later on

0:36:48.560 --> 0:36:52.480
<v Speaker 2>after a couple of years in the league.

0:36:52.640 --> 0:36:55.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean, I think in regards to like growth

0:36:55.880 --> 0:36:58.920
<v Speaker 1>from maturity standpoint, Yeah, I mean, I I there probably

0:36:59.000 --> 0:37:00.960
<v Speaker 1>is a little bit of precedent. They are. The problem

0:37:00.960 --> 0:37:04.279
<v Speaker 1>with Richardson, Josh, is that's like one layer. There's seven

0:37:04.360 --> 0:37:13.040
<v Speaker 1>layers to him. There's Monday through Saturday, there's accuracy, there's turnovers.

0:37:14.040 --> 0:37:16.359
<v Speaker 1>There is how much are you running it? How much

0:37:16.400 --> 0:37:18.880
<v Speaker 1>are you not running it? Obviously can you stay healthy?

0:37:18.920 --> 0:37:24.440
<v Speaker 1>It's like there's just so much to the parlay that

0:37:24.520 --> 0:37:28.480
<v Speaker 1>has to be hit. Now having said that, like in general,

0:37:28.520 --> 0:37:34.960
<v Speaker 1>with him playing football, you're not asking him to be

0:37:35.040 --> 0:37:38.720
<v Speaker 1>Drew Brees accurate or Philip Rivers accurate. If he could

0:37:38.760 --> 0:37:46.239
<v Speaker 1>get to fifty eight percent in my opinion, at the

0:37:46.320 --> 0:37:48.960
<v Speaker 1>level of if fifty eight percent is met with a

0:37:49.440 --> 0:37:54.279
<v Speaker 1>respectable turnover number, you can win with that. Yep, you

0:37:54.280 --> 0:37:58.840
<v Speaker 1>can win with that, And right now, that's probably the

0:37:58.880 --> 0:37:59.920
<v Speaker 1>highest I can go with his.

0:38:00.560 --> 0:38:03.319
<v Speaker 2>I think Chapel had him at fifty eight percent in

0:38:03.400 --> 0:38:05.960
<v Speaker 2>eleven on eleven team periods, right.

0:38:05.800 --> 0:38:08.480
<v Speaker 1>Which, again, in camp you need to be much higher

0:38:08.480 --> 0:38:12.279
<v Speaker 1>than that, like you need to be to me, you know,

0:38:12.560 --> 0:38:14.840
<v Speaker 1>you almost knock off ten percent from camp to a game,

0:38:16.360 --> 0:38:18.040
<v Speaker 1>because last year I think he was north of sixty

0:38:18.040 --> 0:38:23.360
<v Speaker 1>if I'm not mistaken in camp there. So that is

0:38:23.440 --> 0:38:26.719
<v Speaker 1>kind of how I would baseline it. The problem with

0:38:26.800 --> 0:38:29.040
<v Speaker 1>defining his ceiling or like people that are like, hey,

0:38:29.040 --> 0:38:33.080
<v Speaker 1>he's got such a high ceiling and all that, we

0:38:33.120 --> 0:38:36.759
<v Speaker 1>sit here right now and we've yet to see him

0:38:36.840 --> 0:38:39.560
<v Speaker 1>play truly good to great football.

0:38:39.719 --> 0:38:39.919
<v Speaker 2>Yep.

0:38:40.280 --> 0:38:44.800
<v Speaker 1>Ever ever collegiately, you know, again Chris Ballard makes the

0:38:44.840 --> 0:38:46.919
<v Speaker 1>comparisons to Baker Mayfield and Sam I was like, wait

0:38:46.920 --> 0:38:48.760
<v Speaker 1>a minute, Baker Mayfield on the Heisman Trophy.

0:38:48.960 --> 0:38:49.240
<v Speaker 2>Yep.

0:38:49.760 --> 0:38:52.600
<v Speaker 1>Sam Donald threw for four thousand yards at one of

0:38:52.640 --> 0:38:56.880
<v Speaker 1>the best schools in college football. Yep, No, we can't

0:38:56.920 --> 0:38:57.439
<v Speaker 1>go there.

0:38:57.840 --> 0:39:00.239
<v Speaker 2>And so Jared Goff went to a Super Bowl or

0:39:00.239 --> 0:39:01.879
<v Speaker 2>he got traded to Detroit, right, So.

0:39:01.760 --> 0:39:05.960
<v Speaker 1>That's what I think makes it challenging. Of yes, there

0:39:06.000 --> 0:39:11.840
<v Speaker 1>are these just tantalizing elements to him, but it's largely

0:39:12.000 --> 0:39:19.000
<v Speaker 1>still yet to be ever seen collegiately, especially which I

0:39:19.000 --> 0:39:21.759
<v Speaker 1>think again kind of adds to all of it there.

0:39:21.800 --> 0:39:27.160
<v Speaker 1>But again, Josh, even if you don't want to say whatever,

0:39:27.160 --> 0:39:29.480
<v Speaker 1>that's an all pro level. If you can just live

0:39:29.560 --> 0:39:32.520
<v Speaker 1>in a what if he got to fifty eight percent,

0:39:32.560 --> 0:39:34.839
<v Speaker 1>which is not that ludicrous of an ask, No, if

0:39:34.840 --> 0:39:39.200
<v Speaker 1>he got there, and again, the turnovers were not as

0:39:39.200 --> 0:39:44.120
<v Speaker 1>problematic as they were last year. The Colts very well

0:39:44.160 --> 0:39:47.440
<v Speaker 1>could be a playoff team very well. So that's kind

0:39:47.440 --> 0:39:47.840
<v Speaker 1>of how.

0:39:48.239 --> 0:39:50.560
<v Speaker 2>You let me ask you this In conclusion here with

0:39:50.680 --> 0:39:54.359
<v Speaker 2>the way that Chris Ballard was aggressive in helping out

0:39:54.400 --> 0:39:57.240
<v Speaker 2>Louis and a room on the secondary with the selection

0:39:57.320 --> 0:39:59.880
<v Speaker 2>of Tyler Warren, and you mentioned the players that are

0:39:59.880 --> 0:40:02.799
<v Speaker 2>in doring a contract year next year if things don't

0:40:02.800 --> 0:40:05.560
<v Speaker 2>paint out with Daniel Jones or Anythingy Richardson this year,

0:40:05.560 --> 0:40:09.280
<v Speaker 2>are we going to see another situation where the next

0:40:09.480 --> 0:40:13.239
<v Speaker 2>general manager sees what we are currently discussing. They have

0:40:13.320 --> 0:40:17.280
<v Speaker 2>these guys that can make place, They have the foundation

0:40:17.360 --> 0:40:19.360
<v Speaker 2>to be a good team. We just need a you know,

0:40:19.360 --> 0:40:22.440
<v Speaker 2>a veteran quarterback in there. And we're back to the

0:40:22.680 --> 0:40:26.080
<v Speaker 2>endless cycle that was of band aid after a band

0:40:26.120 --> 0:40:27.640
<v Speaker 2>aid after band aid. Stop it.

0:40:28.840 --> 0:40:31.600
<v Speaker 1>Now, that's a sick thing to end on that. You

0:40:31.640 --> 0:40:36.960
<v Speaker 1>just drop that on me. No, no, I no, And

0:40:37.000 --> 0:40:39.480
<v Speaker 1>this gets you know, I debated a little bit. I

0:40:39.520 --> 0:40:41.040
<v Speaker 1>don't know if you and I did, Eddie, but like

0:40:41.080 --> 0:40:43.440
<v Speaker 1>you know, people right now are bringing up Michael Parsons

0:40:43.440 --> 0:40:45.080
<v Speaker 1>and Terry McLaurin. You know, those are the two big

0:40:45.160 --> 0:40:47.520
<v Speaker 1>names that people bringing up right now, and hey, insert

0:40:47.520 --> 0:40:49.439
<v Speaker 1>team here or should they enter that mix?

0:40:49.520 --> 0:40:51.279
<v Speaker 2>I thought we talked about it last week. Did a

0:40:51.320 --> 0:40:54.279
<v Speaker 2>Twitter question about it? Yeah, okay, Well just to reiterate it, the.

0:40:54.239 --> 0:40:55.040
<v Speaker 1>Colts are frozen.

0:40:55.280 --> 0:40:56.760
<v Speaker 2>Yes, you can't do that stuff.

0:40:56.800 --> 0:41:01.279
<v Speaker 1>You can't entertain that stuff without it. So whatever, Drew

0:41:01.360 --> 0:41:08.040
<v Speaker 1>Aller and Arch and Mendoza and the Carolina Yeah, that's

0:41:08.080 --> 0:41:11.400
<v Speaker 1>not like Leonora Sellers whoever, you want to dream about

0:41:11.840 --> 0:41:15.680
<v Speaker 1>Club Nick, you gotta be frozen. You just can't do it.

0:41:15.719 --> 0:41:19.280
<v Speaker 1>And it's unfortunate. It's a bummer, but that's the reality

0:41:19.320 --> 0:41:22.120
<v Speaker 1>that you are currently in right now. But no, no,

0:41:22.200 --> 0:41:26.160
<v Speaker 1>you no band aid it not stop that. I'm just

0:41:26.160 --> 0:41:28.640
<v Speaker 1>saying you imagine Jacoby Brissett quarterback in this team. Oh no,

0:41:28.680 --> 0:41:33.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm talking like Carson Wentz out of retirement. Yeah, now

0:41:33.239 --> 0:41:36.200
<v Speaker 1>Car's done. My brother sawm at Kroger the other day.

0:41:36.480 --> 0:41:39.440
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. I just remember, by the way, what

0:41:39.480 --> 0:41:42.600
<v Speaker 2>I was gonna mention earlier that I forgot. You said, uh,

0:41:43.000 --> 0:41:44.840
<v Speaker 2>avenue for the Colts to make the playoffs. You mentioned

0:41:44.880 --> 0:41:47.560
<v Speaker 2>a better quarterback play, better defensive play, and then an

0:41:47.640 --> 0:41:50.319
<v Speaker 2>underrated one was better pass catching a number four. They're

0:41:50.360 --> 0:41:51.120
<v Speaker 2>in the a S South.

0:41:51.400 --> 0:41:53.520
<v Speaker 1>Well, that's the gift that keeps giving, baby, you know

0:41:53.560 --> 0:41:56.919
<v Speaker 1>what I say, God bless the AFC South.

0:41:57.120 --> 0:41:59.759
<v Speaker 2>And as we wrap up KB, I know people are

0:41:59.760 --> 0:42:02.280
<v Speaker 2>going to start wondering when we're doing the Fantasy Football

0:42:02.360 --> 0:42:04.759
<v Speaker 2>League and the pick'm that stuff coming out soon. We're

0:42:05.239 --> 0:42:07.840
<v Speaker 2>kind of finalizing the details on how we want to

0:42:07.920 --> 0:42:10.239
<v Speaker 2>give away the spots to the Fantasy Football still open.

0:42:10.800 --> 0:42:13.359
<v Speaker 1>Suggestions from people. We have debated a few Eddie's come

0:42:13.440 --> 0:42:15.000
<v Speaker 1>up with what I think is a pretty good idea,

0:42:15.040 --> 0:42:17.560
<v Speaker 1>but we're still open, so yeah, we'll probably provide that

0:42:17.600 --> 0:42:21.000
<v Speaker 1>info for you on an upcoming pod or two. So yeah,

0:42:21.000 --> 0:42:23.080
<v Speaker 1>slide into either of our dms for that if you

0:42:23.160 --> 0:42:27.480
<v Speaker 1>have any thoughts. He is Eddie Garrison. I am Kevin Bowen.

0:42:27.560 --> 0:42:30.400
<v Speaker 1>Thank you for listening to Colts Corner with Kevin Bowen.

0:42:30.480 --> 0:42:34.279
<v Speaker 1>We'll talk to you probably Tuesday ish. Recap and a

0:42:34.280 --> 0:42:35.360
<v Speaker 1>trio of Colts Practice
