34
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:33,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, they have a bacon bowl when they played someone

35
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:35,720
Speaker 5: over here. It's pretty crazy. But hey, I had a

36
00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:37,959
Speaker 5: lot of fun this morning, and it's it feels like

37
00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 5: fall just oh man, it never gets all.

38
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:42,320
Speaker 4: I love it so well, So let's start there.

39
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:45,400
Speaker 6: You know, I know usually the one A schools represent

40
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:47,280
Speaker 6: when it comes to having success or I'm was like

41
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 6: you had today with operation football.

42
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:52,720
Speaker 2: So what is the atmosphere like at Carroll in Flora?

43
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 6: And you know how much did the community embrace you?

44
00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 5: They are the first school since I've been doing this

45
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:05,440
Speaker 5: three years now that brought almost as many parents as students.

46
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 5: They had the entire home stands full for our seven

47
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:14,440
Speaker 5: o'clock hit of the bands, the cheerleaders, the students, the

48
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:17,840
Speaker 5: football team and parents. It was awesome. I've never experienced

49
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,000
Speaker 5: something like that, and so I wanted to keep showing

50
00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:21,720
Speaker 5: them on TV just as much as the kids because

51
00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:24,920
Speaker 5: they had cow bells and signs, they were wanting T shirts.

52
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 5: They were just as fired up as the kids. First.

53
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 5: So so I love going to the small communities for

54
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:31,920
Speaker 5: the morning stuff that we do because they really embrace it.

55
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 5: They have no issue getting up at you know, five am,

56
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:38,120
Speaker 5: six am, getting out and just being loud and having fun.

57
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 5: And we get to showcase schools that otherwise wouldn't be

58
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:43,240
Speaker 5: Like I can't tell you how many times I've been

59
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:46,239
Speaker 5: to Flora for Carroll High School since I've been here.

60
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 5: So to do that to showcase them. They're very appreciative,

61
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:52,639
Speaker 5: and they were fired up and you know, pretty successful

62
00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,239
Speaker 5: football wise in the last five years. They're forty five

63
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:59,200
Speaker 5: and ten, okay, and they've won sectional titles three of

64
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:01,919
Speaker 5: the last four years. So this isn't any slouch either

65
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:03,920
Speaker 5: on the football field as far as one A goes.

66
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:06,280
Speaker 5: So pumped up to be with the Cougars this morning,

67
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 5: and yeah, great turnout for sure.

68
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:10,680
Speaker 2: Did you say Bacon Bowl?

69
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:13,360
Speaker 5: The Bacon Bowl? I believe that's what I was just

70
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 5: told as I was rushing to my car to get

71
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:15,360
Speaker 5: on here.

72
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,440
Speaker 2: I'd love more on that, to be honest with you.

73
00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:21,920
Speaker 2: So if you that crisp, I'm a little more of

74
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:25,120
Speaker 2: a crispy or bacon if if I must say, but

75
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 2: I remember the Kevin bowen Berger correct to Kevin bowen

76
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 2: Bacon Berger. Yes, thank you James Boyd for that dominic brand.

77
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 2: A wh R operation football with us here. I'm picturing

78
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:37,920
Speaker 2: like a Grissom Air Force base flyover here in in Flora.

79
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 2: All right, we're inching closer to tournament time, We're inching

80
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:44,360
Speaker 2: closer to pairing show time as well. What other games

81
00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:46,120
Speaker 2: would be watching for here in week seven?

82
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,480
Speaker 5: All right? I'm really excited for this one, and we

83
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 5: have not Center Grove played such a an interesting schedule.

84
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:56,720
Speaker 5: They're out of the state a lot, and we haven't

85
00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 5: been able to get to that. I all think we've

86
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:03,120
Speaker 5: covered them twice, which is abnormal. But Cathedral visits Center

87
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 5: Grove and I'm extremely excited for that one. Our ELI

88
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 5: game was talking to Eric Moore the other day, he

89
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:13,800
Speaker 5: said he's fired up. I don't know, Center Grove. Every

90
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 5: time I go there, it always just gives me kind

91
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:18,360
Speaker 5: of like a college feel. I know there's a lot

92
00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:22,320
Speaker 5: of Center Grove faithful who listen and everything, and they

93
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:26,839
Speaker 5: take their football seriously. Very excited for that matchup. Center

94
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:30,320
Speaker 5: Grove ranked what was it second and six A and

95
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:33,240
Speaker 5: Cathedral third and five A. You know they're coming off

96
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,600
Speaker 5: a subpar year by their standards. Eight and five was

97
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,240
Speaker 5: still win to semi state last year, So very excited

98
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:42,359
Speaker 5: for that. Other than that, though Westfield and Avon play.

99
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 5: Westfield really impressed me last week against Brownsburg fourteen to

100
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,080
Speaker 5: ten was the final there to hold that offense to

101
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:52,560
Speaker 5: just fourteen points, seven of which in the second half.

102
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:57,039
Speaker 5: Impressive seven both halfs. I mean, that's a really I was.

103
00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 5: It almost feels like they deserve to win that game.

104
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:01,600
Speaker 5: But brown that's why they ranked one. They found a way.

105
00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:05,640
Speaker 5: Carmel visits Ben Davis. Excited for that one. More Central

109
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:20,719
Speaker 5: I can't believe it, but regular seasons dwindling down a

110
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,640
Speaker 5: lot of good action while separating the boys from the

111
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 5: men here, So I'm excited for it.

112
00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:28,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, and obviously you talked about that Cathedral Center Grove

113
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 1: game in just a year ago. That was a fantastic game.

114
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:32,599
Speaker 1: I think both teams were just lighting up the.

115
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:35,560
Speaker 4: Yeah.

116
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:39,880
Speaker 5: Yeah. In Center Grove is like crazy with the college talent,

117
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:43,560
Speaker 5: especially in the trenches. A couple o linemen going to

118

00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 5: Center Grove. So they have a plethora of college talent

123
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 5: dominate the trenches. They've been kind of cruising this year.

124
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:06,280
Speaker 5: I mean, I'm just excited to watch them play because

125
00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:08,360
Speaker 5: I know I've been hopping up Brownsburg and Carmel a

126
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:10,600
Speaker 5: lot on this show, but i think Center Grove has

127
00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:12,760
Speaker 5: some to say about it, and I'm just really excited

128
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 5: to get some eyes on them, sir tonight.

129
00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:17,200
Speaker 6: So I do want to pivot back, if you will,

130
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:19,280
Speaker 6: kind of walk back with me in memory a little bit.

131
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:22,680

Speaker 2: But Dominick.

134
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:31,920
Speaker 6: I believe when I landed from La oh yeah, at

135
00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:34,800
Speaker 6: the Indianapolis International Airport, I was walking through and I

136
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:37,560
Speaker 6: saw you on your way to Vegas for Game five

137
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:41,159
Speaker 6: of the Fever and the Aces, and so we saw

138
00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:43,680
Speaker 6: how that season ended. But being there in person, what

139
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:45,839
Speaker 6: can you tell us about just how that team rallied to,

140
00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 6: you know, try to extend their season and what it

141
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 6: means obviously to you know, end in a fashion where

142
00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:53,080
Speaker 6: it felt like they gave everything.

143
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,760
Speaker 5: I forgot. It was so many days and time zones ago.

144
00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,880
Speaker 5: I forgot that we saw you. That was talk about

145
00:06:59,880 --> 00:07:04,440
Speaker 5: it daymaker by the way, Yeah it was. I'm so

146
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:07,479
Speaker 5: happy we were there in person to witness this because

147
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:12,239
Speaker 5: I still a couple of days later. Can't it feels

148
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:16,560
Speaker 5: like saying this team is resilient, it's just way underselling it.

149
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,240
Speaker 5: What an environment there at the Michel of Ultra Center,

150
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:22,640
Speaker 5: it was like a rave. I don't know if they

151
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:25,920
Speaker 5: have their decibels of their PA system louder than just

152
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 5: everywhere else I've been, but my ears were like speedway

153
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 5: levels of bleeding, and I don't know, it was just

154
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,200
Speaker 5: there was dancers the whole time beside us on the

155
00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:39,320
Speaker 5: four level and it was just like a rave credits

156
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:41,680
Speaker 5: to Vegas though, I mean Aja Wilson and Jackie Young.

157
00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:45,640
Speaker 5: Jackie Young is the truth now, Okay, she's unbelievable and

158
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:47,560
Speaker 5: just made big shot of big shot Chelsea Gray in

159
00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:48,400
Speaker 5: the overtime period.

160
00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:50,640
Speaker 7: But this team is.

161
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:54,800
Speaker 5: Every time it's like, there's no way they can do this.

162
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,240
Speaker 5: There's no way they can extend the series. There's no

163
00:07:57,320 --> 00:08:00,360
Speaker 5: way they can get to the WNBA finals with you know,

164
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:02,440
Speaker 5: Sophie Cunningham and Kaitlyn Clark. And that's just the tip

165
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:04,240
Speaker 5: of the iceberg as far as season Eddie injuries go

166
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:08,400
Speaker 5: are out and once you know, Kelsey Mitchell, we didn't

167
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:10,600
Speaker 5: know the severity of the situation. When she went down.

168
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:14,040
Speaker 5: It gave some eerily similar you know Tyree saliburt and

169
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:16,440
Speaker 5: vibes that are like, oh my gosh, great, you know

170
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 5: they're not even to get a chance here go down

171
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:21,840
Speaker 5: as many as nine and just keep scrapping and clawing. Honestly,

172
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:24,120
Speaker 5: Simms made herself some money. Let me tell you that.

173
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:27,400
Speaker 5: What a ball or she is. Leah Boston was pounding

174
00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:31,120
Speaker 5: people in the post. I don't know again, resiliency just

175
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,600
Speaker 5: doesn't feel like strong enough where Lexi hol beat up

176
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:36,840
Speaker 5: this postseason, she played forty three minutes. Are you kidding me?

177
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:37,440
Speaker 1: Like?

178
00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:40,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, But talking to them after the game, Stephanie White

179
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,640
Speaker 5: was just so proud of this team. Leah Boston says,

180
00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:44,440
Speaker 5: We're going to be back. Don't you worry. We're gonna

181
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:45,959
Speaker 5: be back. It just makes us want more. We got

182
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,920
Speaker 5: a taste of it, and I should certainly say that

183
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,560
Speaker 5: you know they are going to be back, and if

184
00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:53,400
Speaker 5: this is what they can do with so many of

185
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:56,240
Speaker 5: their top tier players out, then I don't even want

186
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:58,080
Speaker 5: to know what this team is capable of with a

187
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:00,560
Speaker 5: healthy team all season. And they deserve all the luck

188
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:03,280
Speaker 5: in the world after the hand they've been dealt this season.

189
00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:05,560
Speaker 5: So it was a pleasure to cover the scene to

190
00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:08,160
Speaker 5: watch this team go out that way, nothing hanging their

191
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:10,400
Speaker 5: head about. And I think they have the best head

192
00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:13,959
Speaker 5: coach in the WNBA. Also, now, if this season starts

193
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:15,440
Speaker 5: on time and we have a league next year, we'll

194
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:18,360
Speaker 5: see that's a story for a different day. But yeah, really.

195
00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:21,439
Speaker 1: Friend, one more time. It'll be coming up later on tonight.

196
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:23,319
Speaker 1: I know you're gonna be at eleven different venues for

197
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:27,240
Speaker 1: high school football. Operation Football give us the Rundown very quickly.

198
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:30,319
Speaker 5: Okay, yeah, gave it the week Cathedral Center Grove. That's

199
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:32,000
Speaker 5: all you really need to know. That's tip the Iceberg

200
00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:34,800
Speaker 5: eleven Games clubs are going to the NLDS and we'll

201
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,560
Speaker 5: beat Joy Rickson's the Brewers. You get book that very

202
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:41,360
Speaker 5: excited about that. Go Cubs go and uh yeah, always

203
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:42,560
Speaker 5: a pleasure as always. Boys.

204
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:44,760
Speaker 1: Have a great Friday, all right, get some sleep and

205
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:47,720
Speaker 1: get ready to roll tonight for Operation Football and still

206
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:50,199
Speaker 1: get a football that's the fan morning show. And we

207
00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:53,520
Speaker 1: got Colts Raiders coming up on Sunday afternoon. And it

208
00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:55,240
Speaker 1: feels like we've been having the success from for a

209
00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:57,480
Speaker 1: couple of weeks now James Boyd. But it really is

210
00:09:57,520 --> 00:09:59,720
Speaker 1: about who's going to be healthy and who's not going

211
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:01,400
Speaker 1: to be a healthy for the Colts, especially in that

212
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:06,079
Speaker 1: secondary after the retirement of Xavian Howard, which maybe doesn't hurt.

213
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:07,560
Speaker 4: All that much the way things have been going, but

214
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:08,360
Speaker 4: what are we looking at?

215
00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:10,920
Speaker 6: Yeah, it certainly is a new wrinkle for that group.

216
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:13,679
Speaker 6: And I do wonder, you know, just how that conversation

217
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:16,439
Speaker 6: was going before he retired, like had they broached the

218
00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 6: topic with him, like, Hey, we're gonna bench you this week,

219
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:20,000
Speaker 6: or we're gonna put you in a reserve role, And

220
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:22,160
Speaker 6: he was just like, you know what, as a former

221
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:25,079
Speaker 6: All Pro Pro bowler, do I just you know, call

222
00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 6: it like I see it and kind of call my

223
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:29,280
Speaker 6: own number and say I'm out of here. So that

224
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:31,920
Speaker 6: it is interesting. Probably won't get the real answer to that.

225
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:34,559
Speaker 6: But on top of that, yeah, so without him Kenny

226
00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:37,000
Speaker 6: Moore than second already being out. I know, Kevin, you

227
00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:38,360
Speaker 6: kind of threw out the idea of like, if you

228
00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:41,280
Speaker 6: were healthy, would you put him outside in that cornerback

229
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:43,440
Speaker 6: room and start Mike Kilton in the slot. But again,

230
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:45,560
Speaker 6: can he not be in there? I think you have to,

231
00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:47,840
Speaker 6: you know, roll with Mike Hilton in the slot, and

232
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:51,160
Speaker 6: then for the outside spot it's up for grabs. Is

233
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 6: then Makai Black winer Jonathan Edwards. I know Makai Black

234
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:55,720
Speaker 6: has played more in his career just being an older player.

235
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:57,880
Speaker 6: He's got four starts to his name and his career

236
00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:00,880
Speaker 6: as opposed Jonathan Edwards who has none. But Jonathan Edwards.

237
00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:03,599
Speaker 6: As you saw Kevin limited reps this past week. We

238
00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:06,200
Speaker 6: got a PBu which is more than what Xzavin Howard

239
00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:08,319
Speaker 6: could say in his time on the field, so we'll

240
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:09,959
Speaker 6: see how that all shakes out. And then the last

241
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:12,160
Speaker 6: thing on the injury front, And I think you made

242
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:14,280
Speaker 6: a very good point early in the show, Kevin, is

243
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:17,680
Speaker 6: if Michael Pittman Junior is limited in any way, does

244
00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:21,600
Speaker 6: that affect your punishment for Ady Mitchell? Because when I

245
00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:24,680
Speaker 6: actually changed, Likeking earlier this week, will he play this week?

246
00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:26,719
Speaker 6: Referring to Adie Mitchell, he said, we'll see how the

247
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:28,560
Speaker 6: week goes. And the week is going and in a

248
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:30,520
Speaker 6: way that is not, you know, a good thing for

249
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:31,960
Speaker 6: the Colts when it comes from the health of the

250
00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:32,600
Speaker 6: wide receivers.

251
00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:34,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, it kind of weirdly. I guess we sit here

252
00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:37,200
Speaker 2: on this Friday morning and Alec Pearce is trending in

253
00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:39,599
Speaker 2: a good direction. And now Michael Pittman Junior has the

254
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:42,320
Speaker 2: question mark on him exactly, not being on the injury

255
00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:46,160
Speaker 2: report Wednesday and then popping up yesterday with a hamstring limited.

256
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:48,720
Speaker 2: He does not have ham string history, just to be clear,

257
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:50,520
Speaker 2: you know, I know hamstrings have popped up a lot

258
00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 2: for the Colts here in twenty twenty five, but Michael

259
00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:55,360
Speaker 2: Pittman Junior does not have that. And then again out

260
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:59,800
Speaker 2: in Vegas, Max Crosby and Brock Bauers, two guys especially

261
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:02,640
Speaker 2: we're not used to him on the injury report at all.

262
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:06,080
Speaker 2: He did not practice yesterday and then Bowers went from

263
00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:11,280
Speaker 2: limited Wednesday to no practice Thursday. So you know, those

264
00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:15,000
Speaker 2: are two obvious, huge, huge storylines. Like I think the

265
00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:18,000
Speaker 2: Colts will take care of business, but you know, Raiders

266
00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:20,320
Speaker 2: do have a few stars, and the key is not

267
00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:23,400
Speaker 2: allowing those stars to be true, true stars like Puokaku

268
00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:25,240
Speaker 2: had a nice game last night, he didn't do what

269
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:27,480
Speaker 2: he did against the Colts. I think that's the ask

270
00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:29,959
Speaker 2: if you are a Colts fan of your defense or

271
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,120
Speaker 2: of your offense and trying to block Crosby, it's yeah,

272
00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:34,679
Speaker 2: these are great talents, but in you know, Puka's case

273
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:36,440
Speaker 2: last night, what was it seven for eighty or something

274
00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:38,480
Speaker 2: like that, You know, can you just kind of keep

275
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:42,000
Speaker 2: him to obviously a nice game, but not a historic game,

276
00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:45,800
Speaker 2: And you know Crosby has had those in his NFL career,

277
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:48,160
Speaker 2: and even Bowers in his short time. But it sounds

278
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:50,880
Speaker 2: like some real health questions, certainly for the Raiders here

279
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:51,839
Speaker 2: leading into Friday.

280
00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:53,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, you definitely don't want Jacobe Myers to come up

281
00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,520
Speaker 1: with a nine catch one hundred and fourteen yard two

282
00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:59,000
Speaker 1: touchdown day over at Lucas Oil Stadium.

283
00:12:59,000 --> 00:12:59,920
Speaker 4: There's no question about that.

284
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:03,040
Speaker 1: But as we talk about all this injury stuff and

285
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:05,559
Speaker 1: secondary and who's going to be available and retirements in

286
00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:07,440
Speaker 1: the middle of the week and things like that, here

287
00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:09,880
Speaker 1: we are, guys going into the fifth week of the NFL.

288
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:11,920
Speaker 1: Do you know who we're not talking about at all.

289
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:16,160
Speaker 1: We're not talking about the quarterback, Daniel Jones because he's

290
00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:17,120
Speaker 1: just been doing his job.

291
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:19,360
Speaker 6: Yeah, you know what, I was wondering where you're going

292
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 6: with that. That is a good point you've made. And

293
00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:24,200
Speaker 6: I still think even last week, which was his worst

294
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:27,360
Speaker 6: game of the season, it wasn't god awful to me.

295
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:30,480
Speaker 6: You know, the last interception, I thought he's pressing a bit,

296
00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:33,760
Speaker 6: probably should have not been so aggressive in that moment.

297
00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:36,079
Speaker 6: I thought, you under threw eighty Mitchell on the first interception,

298
00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:39,079
Speaker 6: so his first two turnovers of the year. But even then,

299
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:42,640
Speaker 6: I still thought he gave them enough from the passing

300
00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:44,599
Speaker 6: game to win the game. And then looking at the

301
00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:46,040
Speaker 6: first three weeks of the season, he was playing at

302
00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:48,920
Speaker 6: historic level, MVP level, So I do think that is

303
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:52,320
Speaker 6: an interesting development. And I was doing a little Raiders

304
00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:54,800
Speaker 6: Radio yesterday, and you know, for some of the Vegas stations,

305
00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:57,440
Speaker 6: they were asking me like, how shocked were you on

306
00:13:57,480 --> 00:13:59,800
Speaker 6: a level of one to ten with the way Danie

307
00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:01,719
Speaker 6: Joe has played so far the season, And I told

308
00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:04,240
Speaker 6: him I'm at a ten, Especially to the first three weeks,

309
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:05,559
Speaker 6: I did not think it would look this good. I

310
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:09,280
Speaker 6: thought it would be more game managing. Okay, he's gonna

311
00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:11,320
Speaker 6: dink and dunk, not turn the ball over, throw the

312
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:15,000
Speaker 6: occasional touchdown pass and they'll be okay. But no, he's

313
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:16,839
Speaker 6: been one of their best players, and so I'm curious

314
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:19,480
Speaker 6: how he bounced back from his first game not looking,

315
00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:21,400
Speaker 6: you know, to play at an elite level. But at

316
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:24,240
Speaker 6: the same time, I don't think anybody being realistic about

317
00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:27,080
Speaker 6: this team is all too worried about Daniel Jones. You

318
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:29,560
Speaker 6: certainly don't want it to snowball Kevin and pile up,

319
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:32,000
Speaker 6: But I mean, looking at last week, this wasn't a

320
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:33,440
Speaker 6: game where I just felt like there were some times

321
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:36,200
Speaker 6: last year with Anthony Richson, I was like, man, like

322
00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:38,560
Speaker 6: your lows were too low for the team that actually

323
00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:40,520
Speaker 6: have a chance to win. It feels like even the

324
00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:42,920
Speaker 6: baseline for Daniel Jones with some of the mistakes included

325
00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:44,880
Speaker 6: in that, and they're okay with that.

326
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:48,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, is that the Daniel Jones floor? If that's the

327
00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 2: floor off and running, you'll sign yourself up in sharpie.

328
00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:56,200
Speaker 2: One little storyline for Sunday. Patrick Graham, the Raiders defensive coordinator,

329
00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:58,000
Speaker 2: was with the Giants for a couple of years, so

330
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:00,920
Speaker 2: Daniel Jones and him faced off from practice for about

331
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:04,480
Speaker 2: two years, Daniel said earlier this week, different defense that

332
00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:06,840
Speaker 2: Patrick Graham now has with the Raiders, but still just

333
00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:09,440
Speaker 2: you know, a little wrinkle of you know, some guy

334
00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:12,000
Speaker 2: has some you know history with Daniel Jones.

335
00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:13,880
Speaker 4: So we'll see how all that plays out.

336
00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 2: Coming up a touchdown favorite again, the second biggest favorite

337
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:22,240
Speaker 2: in the Shane Steiken thirty nine game era as head

338
00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:23,080
Speaker 2: football coach.

339
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:25,360
Speaker 4: The only time they're a bigger favorite.

340
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:29,760
Speaker 2: Trying to think Drew Locke in the Giants.

341
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:32,000
Speaker 4: We all know how that one went.

342
00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:35,360
Speaker 2: Oh lord, that was narrators nooy. That didn't end well.

343
00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:37,360
Speaker 6: Yeah, that might be the worst loss of his tenure.

344
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:39,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I would argue there's no mind about it.

345
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:41,920
Speaker 2: But so yes, that's what you're trying to avoid again,

346
00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:43,880
Speaker 2: player standard. It's kind of like the week three stuff

347
00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:47,760
Speaker 2: with Titans laidier standard, not to your competition. Ten am

348
00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 2: local time start for the Raiders. They don't have their

349
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,800
Speaker 2: left tackle, Laotu Latsu should be feasting on that. And

350
00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:56,160
Speaker 2: don't let Ashton Genty stay in the game. And by

351
00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:59,200
Speaker 2: that I mean this, get up on them early, take

352
00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:02,360
Speaker 2: Genty out of the You don't want gent for second there.

353
00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:04,000
Speaker 6: Mark, I thought he was going like tables, ladders and

354
00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:06,960
Speaker 6: chairs there I'm again, yeah.

355
00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:09,560
Speaker 2: Right, I'm not saying Tanya Hardy and at the team hotel.

356
00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:13,280
Speaker 2: But if you can get a lead, because Genty, for

357
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:16,080
Speaker 2: those that haven't been paying attention, he's breaking tackles like

358
00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:19,080
Speaker 2: nobody's business right now. In the NFL, well, you know

359
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:20,880
Speaker 2: the Colts usually do that to other teams. Look at

360
00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:22,840
Speaker 2: Jonathan Taylor in the fourth quarter. Look at Jonathan Taylor

361
00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:25,280
Speaker 2: in the second halves. If you can get a lead

362
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:29,440
Speaker 2: and again take Genty out of the game, then maybe

363
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:32,320
Speaker 2: those third and fourth quarter opportunities for him. If he's

364
00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:35,040
Speaker 2: wearing you down a little bit, it's not there for him.

365
00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:38,040
Speaker 8: Jovin's trying to do like a good fella scene, like hey, Genty,

366
00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:40,280
Speaker 8: go into this empty room real quick, just walk in here.

367
00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:41,920
Speaker 4: Real quick. Piper Woods is eight.

368
00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:44,320
Speaker 1: Iron and we're gonna take We're gonnaet him to be

369
00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 1: a made man. Come on by the house at three o'clock.

370
00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:49,320
Speaker 1: It's all gonna be good. What's all this plastic on

371
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:49,840
Speaker 1: the floor.

372
00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:52,120
Speaker 6: One more thing on Daniel Jones and I'm looking at

373
00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:54,760
Speaker 6: this that right now, and this I think kind of

374
00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:57,400
Speaker 6: encapsulates why the Colts won its role with him over

375
00:16:57,440 --> 00:17:02,200
Speaker 6: Anthony Richardson. He's completed nineteen of his twenty five intermediate passes,

376
00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:04,800
Speaker 6: which an NFL pro which is like a stat for

377
00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:10,400
Speaker 6: NFL records and things of that nature, the yard attempts

378
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:13,280
Speaker 6: for antimeter throws is ten to nineteen yards. He's nineteen

379
00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:15,399
Speaker 6: of twenty five for three and fifty seven yards, the

380
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:18,760
Speaker 6: third most in the NFL, seventy six percent completion rate

381
00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:19,879
Speaker 6: on those types of throws.

382
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:20,920
Speaker 2: That's what changed.

383
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:22,560
Speaker 6: I can want it when he made that change, Jeff,

384
00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:26,040
Speaker 6: because they felt like their offense was not tenable and

385
00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:28,679
Speaker 6: it wasn't feasible to have a high operating offense if

386
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:30,360
Speaker 6: we can't make the layups. And that's what he's doing,

387
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:32,840
Speaker 6: and which is why I think, even with some of

388
00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:35,080
Speaker 6: the mistakes last week, you feel pretty good about where

389
00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:36,080
Speaker 6: the quarterback situation is.

390
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:37,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, and I know.

391
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:38,760
Speaker 1: It's only through four weeks or about a quarter or

392
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:40,520
Speaker 1: just a little over quarter of the way through the season.

393
00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:43,399
Speaker 1: But I was looking at the NFL standings yesterday and

394
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:45,159
Speaker 1: one of the things I always like to keep track of,

395
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:47,879
Speaker 1: especially as we get deeper and deeper into the season,

396
00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:52,080
Speaker 1: is the plus minus point differential, because that usually tells

397
00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:54,000
Speaker 1: a teal. The Cultu are one of the best teams

398
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,760
Speaker 1: in the league right now. They're plus forty James. Yeah.

399
00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 6: I mean again, this is a team that has played

400
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:02,480
Speaker 6: good football. And I know people are saying this before,

401
00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:04,520
Speaker 6: and oh they could just as well be two and two.

402
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:06,159
Speaker 6: So I think you take the three and one and

403
00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:07,760
Speaker 6: you have a chance to bounce back against a bad

404
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,400
Speaker 6: Raiders team at home, and then next week a Cardinals

405
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:12,200
Speaker 6: team that I'm still not too sold on either.

406
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:13,639
Speaker 4: So you're in a great spot.

407
00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:15,960
Speaker 6: And I think Kevin, you kind of were predicting, Okay,

408
00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:18,520
Speaker 6: how could this Heson look to this point? This is

409
00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:21,320
Speaker 6: about as good realistically as it could look in my opinion.

410
00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:24,280
Speaker 1: Well, that'll be coming up on Sunday afternoon one o'clock.

411
00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:27,800
Speaker 1: The Colts and the Raiders Raiders trying to start everything new.

412
00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:30,760
Speaker 1: Pete Carroll is there, Geno Smith is there, and maybe

413
00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:32,480
Speaker 1: it was Geno Smith and Pete Carroll a couple of

414
00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:36,399
Speaker 1: years ago. But what do we expect from Gino Smith?

415
00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:39,200
Speaker 4: Do you think Pete Carroll looks like a poodle? Where

416
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:42,199
Speaker 4: did that come from? I love that his face. I

417
00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:43,480
Speaker 4: haven't thought about that ever.

418
00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:45,320
Speaker 2: You know, as a Notre Dame fan, a lot of

419
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:47,960
Speaker 2: venom towards Pete Carroll, a lot of jealousy towards Pete

420
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:50,879
Speaker 2: Carroll and usc Pete Carroll. Yeah, maybe back in that

421
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:53,280
Speaker 2: day he was more poodlish than he is now.

422
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:53,760
Speaker 5: Uh.

423
00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:54,080
Speaker 4: Yeah.

424
00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:58,080
Speaker 2: They obviously are starting a new pretty much, and Gino

425
00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:01,280
Speaker 2: has really struggled with interceptions. You know, that's been a clear,

426
00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:03,480
Speaker 2: clear issue. And Pete Carroll's had to answer a question

427
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:06,360
Speaker 2: or two this week of hey, how long is the leash?

428
00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:07,240
Speaker 7: Can you pack?

429
00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:08,919
Speaker 2: You know, they don't have the young guy to turn too.

430
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:10,600
Speaker 2: I mean there's a lot of debate about the Raiders

431
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:14,600
Speaker 2: drafting a quarterback and so you know they did not

432
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:18,760
Speaker 2: do that. Obviously, Gentsy was their first round pick. So yeah,

433
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:21,040
Speaker 2: we'll see, you know, I think early in the game

434
00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:24,680
Speaker 2: if this was last year's defense or recent year defenses,

435
00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:27,200
Speaker 2: I'd be really worried about a struggling quarterback getting into

436
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:31,000
Speaker 2: a rhythm against Gus Bradleys Spoltz, lu An Arumo cannot

437
00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:34,360
Speaker 2: allow for that. And so that you know the first

438
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:38,280
Speaker 2: quarter or two how Gino looks, I think is one

439
00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:40,840
Speaker 2: of the few areas well. Could they keep this a game?

440
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:43,680
Speaker 2: And again, if you take away rock Bauers potentially, I

441
00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:46,520
Speaker 2: mean it's it's probably the least potent wide receiver corps

442
00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:48,200
Speaker 2: you're going to see all year, at least one of them.

443
00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:50,640
Speaker 2: So I think you're taking a total one to eighty.

444
00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:52,680
Speaker 2: And what you expected from your past defense last week

445
00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:54,200
Speaker 2: versus what you're gonna expect this week.

446
00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:56,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, and we talked so much about the past defense

447
00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:58,679
Speaker 1: last week. But with Genty coming in coming off his

448
00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:01,080
Speaker 1: best game early as a he's a rookie, but man,

449
00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:04,480
Speaker 1: he lit it up against the Commanders last week. You

450
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:07,800
Speaker 1: just have to make sure that he's not getting loose

451
00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:11,800
Speaker 1: for six, eight, ten twelve yard runs consistently, which puts

452
00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:15,440
Speaker 1: them ahead of the chains. And we saw this at

453
00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:17,160
Speaker 1: Boise State, we saw it last week.

454
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:18,560
Speaker 4: Still a home run hitter.

455
00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:21,720
Speaker 6: Oh absolutely, And I'm looking at another stat here, the

456
00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:23,960
Speaker 6: Forrest Buckner and Grover Stewart are tired for the most

457
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:27,399
Speaker 6: run stops among defensive linemen this season at twelve, and

458
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:29,800
Speaker 6: so they're certainly going to be relied on to plug

459
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:33,760
Speaker 6: that middle and you know, force Ashton Gentz to perhaps

460
00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:36,240
Speaker 6: how to you know, do too much bounce outside extend

461
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:38,640
Speaker 6: plays and that's when you got to have guys lot

462
00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:40,640
Speaker 6: too ready to set the edge and go after him.

463
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:44,240
Speaker 6: So I do think that the Raiders offense would like

464
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:46,560
Speaker 6: to rely on Ashton Gentz a lot, but to Kevin's point,

465
00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:48,720
Speaker 6: you want to make life a little uncomfortable for him.

466
00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:51,960
Speaker 6: And honestly, you know, their their their wide receiver room

467
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:54,080
Speaker 6: isn't all that great, but it just can't be a

468
00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:56,280
Speaker 6: get right game for Gino Smith. We saw that way

469
00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:58,440
Speaker 6: too often last year, to Kevin's point, and I thought,

470
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:01,199
Speaker 6: you know, after last week, seeing the way you know,

471
00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:03,680
Speaker 6: Poka Nikol was able to just obliterate them, they should

472
00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:05,359
Speaker 6: have some more wrinkles, you know, in case the gal

473
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:08,560
Speaker 6: Jacobe Myers or somebody starts to get going a bit, well.

474
00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:11,119
Speaker 1: They will return home Lucas Oil Stadium one o'clock in

475
00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:14,359
Speaker 1: the afternoon. Our pregame show with the Drive to Kickoff

476
00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:16,720
Speaker 1: JMB comes your way from the bullsse Eye Event Center

477
00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:19,160
Speaker 1: nine o'clock. Then they have the pre game from ten

478
00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:21,280
Speaker 1: to one. You'll hear it all right here on ninety

479
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:22,920
Speaker 1: three five and one oh seven to five. The fan

480
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:25,840
Speaker 1: looking forward to that and we'll see if they can

481
00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:28,640
Speaker 1: bounce back from a road loss in which again we've

482
00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:30,359
Speaker 1: talked about it and for all the things that we

483
00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:34,320
Speaker 1: critiqued and were upset with the pass defense, they went

484
00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:36,560
Speaker 1: right down to the wire with a team that I

485
00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:38,320
Speaker 1: thought was gonna be one of the better teams in

486
00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:41,040
Speaker 1: the league, and then they kind of got beat up

487
00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:43,360
Speaker 1: at home by a very injured forty nine Ers team

488
00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:45,280
Speaker 1: last night. The NFL is just so weak to week, Kevin,

489
00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:45,960
Speaker 1: you just don't know.

490
00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:48,399
Speaker 2: Well Thursday night divisional games, and we talked about with

491
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:51,240
Speaker 2: Jason Hammer, like even eight and a half without brock

492
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:54,320
Speaker 2: Perty that just seemed like such a big number even

493
00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:57,159
Speaker 2: yesterday to me. And the Rams did have a couple injuries.

494
00:21:57,200 --> 00:21:59,639
Speaker 2: You know, they didn't have the right tackle, Tyler Higbee

495
00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:02,960
Speaker 2: was out. So I get to the outright win obviously

496
00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:05,480
Speaker 2: is an upset, but you know, the Colts, I feel like,

497
00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:07,600
Speaker 2: we almost forget about Thursday night games because it's been

498
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:09,760
Speaker 2: so long since the Colts have played them, you know,

499
00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:12,000
Speaker 2: and the Colts don't have them on the schedule this year.

500
00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:14,639
Speaker 2: But Thursday night games, I almost just like throw it

501
00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:16,560
Speaker 2: out the window, you know. I go back to Bill's

502
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:19,040
Speaker 2: Dolphins a few weeks ago saying to you, guys, like,

503
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:21,679
Speaker 2: is this the night that weird in the NFL happens?

504
00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:23,000
Speaker 2: And both of you looked at me cross eyed, and

505
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:26,960
Speaker 2: I'm like, guys, Thursday night games, you just don't know.

506
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:29,000
Speaker 2: And Miami had a great chance, you know. They they

507
00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:32,879
Speaker 2: hung in there throughout that game. So again, so the

508
00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:36,120
Speaker 2: Colts don't have Thursday night games, so we should probably

509
00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:37,520
Speaker 2: you know, all.

510
00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:39,040
Speaker 1: Right, coming up in just a minute, we will talk

511
00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:42,200
Speaker 1: more about the Colts with the postgame host Greg Raikestraw,

512
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:44,400
Speaker 1: who also happens to know a thing or two about

513
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:47,240
Speaker 1: the local colleges and universities around here as well. You

514
00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:49,360
Speaker 1: think he's one of our favorites and one of the best.

551
00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:06,840
Speaker 1: So there you go.

552
00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:09,760
Speaker 3: I did not realize that was going to be a

553
00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:12,960
Speaker 3: big topic of conversation this morning. I feel unprepared.

554
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:14,480
Speaker 4: I do too, but here we are.

555
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:16,600
Speaker 1: So but you and I have a lot of other

556
00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:18,560
Speaker 1: things to focus on, especially you tonight.

557
00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:19,000
Speaker 4: Correct.

558
00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:22,840
Speaker 3: Correct. So there's several kind of top ten matchups in

559
00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:24,320
Speaker 3: the area, and I'm lucky you have to have one

560
00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:28,320
Speaker 3: of them. So Warren Central plays at Lawrence North. That

561
00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:31,240
Speaker 3: is five and one versus five and one again, both

562
00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:33,240
Speaker 3: teams in the top ten in that game for the

563
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:36,639
Speaker 3: Mix Championship this evening. You can see on Mayan DTV

564
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:39,240
Speaker 3: twenty three in the ISC Sports Network.

565
00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:42,399
Speaker 2: He is Greg Greg Strall And of course it's Week seven.

566
00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:46,040
Speaker 2: Paring Show has win Rake. Another week Paring.

567
00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:50,080
Speaker 3: Show is next Sunday night, so that is usually done

568
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:53,800
Speaker 3: after the game of Week eight, and it gives everybody

569
00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:56,159
Speaker 3: kind of two weeks prepared for their sexual opponent, or

570
00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:58,760
Speaker 3: if you're five A or six A, you got three

571
00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:01,440
Speaker 3: weeks because that section does not begin until Halloween.

572
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:05,679
Speaker 2: I actually wanted to ask you a Colts question, obviously

573
00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:08,639
Speaker 2: postgame show host, and you've I feel like you were

574
00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:10,600
Speaker 2: there yesterday, and I feel like you were there on Wednesday.

575
00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:15,560
Speaker 2: I was the Ady Mitchell situation. Anything you have observed

576
00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:18,720
Speaker 2: this week that has caught your ears in that convo,

577
00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:23,040
Speaker 2: the Michael Pittman junior injury yesterday, I feel like could

578
00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:25,639
Speaker 2: maybe impact you know what their plan is with Mitchell

579
00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:28,199
Speaker 2: for week five, But just curious your thoughts on what

580
00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:31,160
Speaker 2: you've heard about Adie Mitchell. I thought to Forest Buckner's

581
00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:34,919
Speaker 2: words yesterday were really really strong and honestly describing kind

582
00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:36,760
Speaker 2: of a veteran approach with with Mitchell.

583
00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:38,120
Speaker 7: Correct.

584
00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:41,040
Speaker 3: And I would go back to Shane Steiken's words from

585
00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:43,840
Speaker 3: from Monday and then kind of into Wednesday. And I

586
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 3: was listening in on Monday. I was not there on Wednesday.

587
00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:49,800
Speaker 3: But you and I, you know, and JB obviously of

588
00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:52,679
Speaker 3: the same ilk as well. When you're around Shane and

589
00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:55,199
Speaker 3: now in your number three, you kind of know what

590
00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:59,280
Speaker 3: you know to decipher the code, so to speak. And

591
00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:04,040
Speaker 3: while if you're not familiar with the Colts Shane's critique

592
00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:09,199
Speaker 3: of Ad would not be overly concerning. But you know,

593
00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:12,159
Speaker 3: that's pretty strong for Shane's speak, so to speak, in

594
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:15,359
Speaker 3: terms of kind of what he said. I think you

595
00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:17,919
Speaker 3: just put in a very good qualifier in terms of

596
00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:22,040
Speaker 3: having a Michael Pittman injury may change how you have

597
00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:25,600
Speaker 3: to deal with Ad Mitchell or reps. Frankly, a d

598
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:28,800
Speaker 3: was going to get fewer reps if Alec Pierce was healthy.

599
00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:33,000
Speaker 3: But Ad is probably your primary backup for both Michael

600
00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:36,360
Speaker 3: Pittman's junior as well as Alec Pierce. So there may

601
00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:39,040
Speaker 3: be kind of a plan in place to you know,

602
00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:42,600
Speaker 3: I want to say, send a message, but at the

603
00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:44,960
Speaker 3: same time, you don't want to cut off your you know, uh,

604
00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:46,840
Speaker 3: you know, cut off your nose to spite your face.

605
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:49,160
Speaker 3: And so if Michael Pittman Junior isn't a full goal

606
00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:51,760
Speaker 3: or fully healthy, we may see more of Ad Mitchell

607
00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:55,200
Speaker 3: than was planned. On Sunday afternoon, Greg.

608
00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:57,359
Speaker 1: Greg Straw on the Paylist Lookers hotline right now getting

609
00:26:57,359 --> 00:27:00,879
Speaker 1: ready for the Colts and Raiders Sunday afternoon, one o'clock.

610
00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:06,439
Speaker 1: What are your overall thoughts on just the secondary in

611
00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:08,720
Speaker 1: general at this point in time, Obviously there have been

612
00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:09,520
Speaker 1: some challenges.

613
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:10,200
Speaker 4: Now we have.

614
00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:13,679
Speaker 1: Player personnel changes and we've kind of treat topped that.

615
00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:15,160
Speaker 2: But digging in on.

616
00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:16,760
Speaker 4: It, what does this look like the rest of the

617
00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:18,960
Speaker 4: year patchwork?

618
00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:22,080
Speaker 3: As long as guys you know aren't healthy, you know,

619
00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:25,480
Speaker 3: the hope is Kenny Moore is back sooner rather than later. Again,

620
00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:27,760
Speaker 3: I don't think he's going to play this week. And

621
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:29,480
Speaker 3: I always thought this was a two to three week

622
00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:32,159
Speaker 3: injury without a four week injury, or he would be

623
00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:35,439
Speaker 3: on injured reserve. To be honest with you, I had

624
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:38,840
Speaker 3: honestly forgotten about Juju Brentz and Jillen was kind of

625
00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:40,840
Speaker 3: brought up the last when I was out at practice

626
00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:44,879
Speaker 3: yesterday about Mackay Blackman getting his number. So when you

627
00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:47,520
Speaker 3: list like all of the guys that were in camp

628
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:51,639
Speaker 3: with the Colts to play the cornerback position and you go, well,

629
00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:55,199
Speaker 3: you know, Wally gets hurt and you let just you

630
00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:58,280
Speaker 3: let Juju Bretz go, and Jalen Jones has been injured.

631
00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:01,160
Speaker 3: You forget that Sam Womack play at a bunch last year.

632
00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:04,720
Speaker 3: He was let go by the team and now is

633
00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:07,359
Speaker 3: on the Tennessee Titan squad. You know, the majority of

634
00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:09,720
Speaker 3: the guys that are getting reps at cornerback, you know,

635
00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:12,640
Speaker 3: either we're undrafted free agents or guys that weren't with

636
00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:14,480
Speaker 3: the team, and then you have a guy up and

637
00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:18,239
Speaker 3: retire on Wednesday. So this is going to be a

638
00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:21,560
Speaker 3: flashpoint for this team all year. And that's just to

639
00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:24,960
Speaker 3: nature of the National Football League. There always tends to

640
00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:28,280
Speaker 3: be for every team a player a position where your

641
00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:31,680
Speaker 3: injuries get concentrated. So the Colts will be dealing with

642
00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:35,800
Speaker 3: this all year. Hopefully you get a healthy Kenny Moore

643
00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:39,240
Speaker 3: sooner rather than later, and hopefully you get a healthy

644
00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:42,680
Speaker 3: Jalen Jones sooner rather than later, and that makes life

645
00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:44,040
Speaker 3: better for everybody involved.

646
00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:48,000
Speaker 6: So Rick to pivot to the high school scene for

647
00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:50,600
Speaker 6: a moment. Where will you be tonight and what shall

648
00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:53,040
Speaker 6: we be looking out for in your coverage?

649
00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:53,959
Speaker 9: All right?

650
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,560
Speaker 3: So Lawrence Arth and Warren Central is the game that

651
00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 3: I have this evening. And these two teams are sim

652
00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:03,240
Speaker 3: or do a certain degree. Both have tremendous running backs.

653
00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:06,200
Speaker 3: Zay Moore is the featured back for l N, has

654
00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:09,080
Speaker 3: been since this freshman year. He's average fifty yards a

655
00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:13,920
Speaker 3: game just a junior Keon Thomas Junior for Warren Central,

656
00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:17,560
Speaker 3: little bigger, little physical Zay is more of a scat

657
00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:20,200
Speaker 3: back and a guy that you simply can't catch. Keon's

658
00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:21,800
Speaker 3: gonna pound on you a little bit. One hundred and

659
00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:23,840
Speaker 3: forty eight yards a game is what he is averaging.

660
00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:27,120
Speaker 3: Both of these teams have sophomore quarterbacks. Now we kind

661
00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:28,760
Speaker 3: of knew that was going to be the case. For

662
00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:32,080
Speaker 3: Lawrence North, Becaudarian Praither was the backup as a freshman

663
00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:35,280
Speaker 3: last year. Freither has been a running threat, which is

664
00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:39,280
Speaker 3: something that Ellen maybe didn't use as much with tenor

665
00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:42,960
Speaker 3: as puzzle at last year, but now have kind of

666
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:45,920
Speaker 3: brought that back with Prayser to the game this year.

667
00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:49,600
Speaker 3: For Warren Central, their sophomore quarterback is Jack quillin and

668
00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:51,600
Speaker 3: part of the storyline there is that there were a

669
00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:54,320
Speaker 3: couple of juniors in front of him at the start

670
00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:57,400
Speaker 3: of the year, and Quillan now has has secured the

671
00:29:57,520 --> 00:30:01,800
Speaker 3: job and the job is largely his. Both these teams

672
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:05,360
Speaker 3: are not as good defensively as they were last year.

673
00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:06,840
Speaker 7: For Warren they're.

674
00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:10,320
Speaker 3: Still really good defensively, it's just how experienced that group was.

675
00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:12,800
Speaker 3: But they have Jeremy Finch. It's going to go to

676
00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:15,800
Speaker 3: Alabama They have Sean Fox that has big ten offers

677
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:18,040
Speaker 3: as a junior. They have Cale of Elkins who has

678
00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:22,000
Speaker 3: big ten offers as a junior, and so they are

679
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:26,480
Speaker 3: very good defensively. Ln kind of similar graduated a really

680
00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:29,960
Speaker 3: good defense last year, brought back for starters. Those kids

681
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:32,720
Speaker 3: are kind of growing into it. So I would put

682
00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:37,560
Speaker 3: these two teams right below what I think are the

683
00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:40,160
Speaker 3: top three in the state, and that is Brownsburg, Center

684
00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:43,720
Speaker 3: Grove and Carmel. This is kind of the next group.

685
00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:47,320
Speaker 3: And what's interesting is that both of these two teams

686
00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:50,240
Speaker 3: probably will line up against a couple of those teams

687
00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:53,760
Speaker 3: I just mentioned once we would get to the regional round.

688
00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:58,000
Speaker 3: If everybody's path kind of plays up as expected, Warren

689
00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:01,040
Speaker 3: would see Center Grove in the regional. That seemingly is

690
00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:04,160
Speaker 3: a certainty every year. A little more traffic for both

691
00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:08,440
Speaker 3: len and Brownsburg. But they should rematch each other in

692
00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:11,680
Speaker 3: the regional from a year ago. For l Enfield they

693
00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:13,520
Speaker 3: gave one away and Browns we're gonna up winning a

694
00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:17,360
Speaker 3: state championship. So these are two really good teams that

695
00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:20,240
Speaker 3: maybe are slightly under the radar. We're gonna be gonna

696
00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:21,880
Speaker 3: be tough out come postseason time.

697
00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:25,280
Speaker 2: Rake, last one for me, I'll take us into different direction.

698
00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:29,640
Speaker 2: Actually announcement I guess in kind of our neighborhood yesterday,

699
00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:31,600
Speaker 2: which I don't even know if I have a question.

700
00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:33,440
Speaker 2: I just want to share that I think it's cool.

701
00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:37,200
Speaker 2: I think it's awesome that North Carolina's basketball program said

702
00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:39,640
Speaker 2: you know what, Butler, let's play a home at home.

703
00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:42,880
Speaker 2: And I'm like, Wow, that's awesome. We're gonna get North

704
00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:46,760
Speaker 2: Carolina at Hinkle coming up twenty seven the year on that.

705
00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:50,360
Speaker 2: So next year Butler will go to Chapel Hill, North

706
00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:53,680
Speaker 2: Carolina will return the favor. And I just think on

707
00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:57,400
Speaker 2: campus non conference games, I think that's awesome. And so

708
00:31:57,680 --> 00:31:59,000
Speaker 2: again I don't really have a question.

709
00:31:59,120 --> 00:31:59,280
Speaker 7: Rake.

710
00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:01,400
Speaker 2: This might be you and I driving up the Notre

711
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:03,440
Speaker 2: Dame and I just say to you, I love the

712
00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:04,440
Speaker 2: North Carolina did that.

713
00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:07,720
Speaker 3: Well, this is not the first time North Carolina has

714
00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:10,360
Speaker 3: played there, but they were one of the one of

715
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:12,959
Speaker 3: the schools and Dean Smith kind of started at Roy

716
00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:16,480
Speaker 3: Williams would follow it. And obviously at these days with

717
00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:18,680
Speaker 3: player movement, you can't plan this is the way I

718
00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:21,280
Speaker 3: used to. But North Carolina will always make sure they

719
00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:24,840
Speaker 3: had a home game for one of their players his

720
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:29,040
Speaker 3: senior year in his own backyard, North Carolina, came to

721
00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:33,360
Speaker 3: Butler and played in eric montrosse the senior season. Obviously,

722
00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:37,280
Speaker 3: there's a vastly different program now than it was three

723
00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:42,080
Speaker 3: decades ago. And again it's it's it's just that reminder

724
00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:46,880
Speaker 3: of the company that Butler keeps being in the Big East.

725
00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:50,880
Speaker 3: I mean to me, Kevin. It is the second biggest

726
00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:55,320
Speaker 3: announcement for Butler basketball this year, second only to bringing

727
00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:57,880
Speaker 3: games back to ninety three to five and one oh

728
00:32:58,000 --> 00:32:58,480
Speaker 3: seven five.

729
00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:02,680
Speaker 2: Yes, you are such a pro, I mean literally Webster's I'm.

730
00:33:02,520 --> 00:33:05,080
Speaker 3: Actually wearing a sweater vest donor Mark Minner right now

731
00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:06,360
Speaker 3: as we're having this conversation.

732
00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:07,440
Speaker 4: Unbelievable.

733
00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:09,680
Speaker 2: So did one go a mile north of here the

734
00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:13,240
Speaker 2: Indianapolis Public Library. You go to the dictionary section and

735
00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:15,880
Speaker 2: you look up professional and it's a picture of Greg

736
00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:17,320
Speaker 2: mother Bleep and Rakestraw.

737
00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:21,320
Speaker 1: I'll tell you he just he knows exactly what he's doing.

738
00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:25,160
Speaker 1: He just got free lunch from both me and Mark Minner.

739
00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:28,120
Speaker 1: In the same sentence, are you sweater vest guy?

740
00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:28,360
Speaker 7: Rake?

741
00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:32,200
Speaker 3: I am very uh fat guys him to be sweater

742
00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:34,840
Speaker 3: vest guys. Mark is part of the circle that is

743
00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:37,840
Speaker 3: not fat guy sweater vest I'm the overlapping circles of

744
00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:38,560
Speaker 3: fat guy sweater.

745
00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:42,600
Speaker 2: I asked this in all seriousness. Do you have a

746
00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:48,920
Speaker 2: play by play wardrobe? Is not probably the path I'm

747
00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:50,880
Speaker 2: gonna go down. Do you have like a staple? Do

748
00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:56,240
Speaker 2: you have something you do say where for every broadcast?

749
00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:58,760
Speaker 2: Or I'm not asking like Jim Nance cuts off his

750
00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:01,240
Speaker 2: tie and gives it, you know, to the super Bowl

751
00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:03,920
Speaker 2: winning quarterback or something like that. Do you do anything

752
00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:06,080
Speaker 2: along that that we maybe just don't know?

753
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:10,000
Speaker 3: Probably the thing that I want to say, and I'm

754
00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:12,160
Speaker 3: not sure why I felt like voting days of the

755
00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:13,759
Speaker 3: days of our lives, but I said it once and

756
00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:16,000
Speaker 3: I kind of ingrain it now. Towards the end of

757
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:18,839
Speaker 3: the broadcast, you will hear me drop a phrase something

758
00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:22,280
Speaker 3: through the akin of the sands or the hour glass

759
00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:25,000
Speaker 3: or starting to fall a little faster as time is

760
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:27,920
Speaker 3: winding down, that first kind of you know, seg that

761
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:30,080
Speaker 3: thought of, hey, it's kind of getting late in this game.

762
00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:33,160
Speaker 3: I will say that, bringing me eleven perspective. There's obviously

763
00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:36,960
Speaker 3: cue to smoke. I am known if it is a

764
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:40,200
Speaker 3: bruising run in football to say, you know, or like

765
00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:43,600
Speaker 3: he is getting yards after contact. Clearly he did not

766
00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:47,560
Speaker 3: skip leg day. I saw Titus McCoy one time in

767
00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:51,239
Speaker 3: his agency drove literally back his way nine yards down

768
00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:53,680
Speaker 3: the field for a first shut. I think that was

769
00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:59,480
Speaker 3: the impetus of that. From from a you know, wardrobe standpoint,

770
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:01,600
Speaker 3: and I will go back to fat guy status. I

771
00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:05,800
Speaker 3: wear what fits these days. It is an is sc hoodie.

772
00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:07,200
Speaker 3: I've got like a whole slew of them that are

773
00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:09,879
Speaker 3: made by Carhart. They're so comfy and cozy. You saw

774
00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:12,759
Speaker 3: me in one yesterday. Finally, from a ice, you need

775
00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:15,920
Speaker 3: to dress up and look the part standpoint, usually in

776
00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:19,960
Speaker 3: my sport coat or in my shirt or tie. I

777
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:25,480
Speaker 3: am usually wearing purple as a nod to my hometown Lanesville.

778
00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:26,960
Speaker 4: And tonight will we hear this?

779
00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:30,280
Speaker 2: Will we get.

780
00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:34,120
Speaker 4: Bulls tones and Greg greg.

781
00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:36,759
Speaker 2: Like sands through the hour glass?

782
00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:40,120
Speaker 4: So are the days of our lives. I don't think

783
00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:40,960
Speaker 4: we'll get that.

784
00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:43,480
Speaker 3: What I really have to do is I have to

785
00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:45,880
Speaker 3: work in a Hope and bo Brady reference at some

786
00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:48,960
Speaker 3: point in time. That's the subtle nod to the show.

787
00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:53,080
Speaker 1: I was a general hospital guy back in the day, Greg.

788
00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:58,000
Speaker 3: As a as a Broncos guy. I thought you were

789
00:35:58,040 --> 00:35:59,880
Speaker 3: that you were going to bring up all my shoulder

790
00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:04,040
Speaker 3: because that is what John Elway was watching when he

791
00:36:04,200 --> 00:36:06,719
Speaker 3: learned he was being traded from the Colts to the Broncos.

792
00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:11,560
Speaker 1: See, that's why we have your around for encyclopedia. Is hey,

793
00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:14,520
Speaker 1: real quick before we go to i'd be remiss. How's

794
00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:17,200
Speaker 1: Purtue gonna do against and against Illinois tomorrow?

795
00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:20,560
Speaker 3: They got a shot, you know, I think they are

796
00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:25,600
Speaker 3: significantly better, but they've got a ways to go. What's

797
00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:29,360
Speaker 3: great is that if Purdue wins. Uh, the Forrest Buckner

798
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:31,799
Speaker 3: has said he's gonna put jab in the duck mask

799
00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:35,759
Speaker 3: because we think that's funning and needs to continue on

800
00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:39,400
Speaker 3: a weekly basis. I expect Illinois to win. I expect

801
00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:40,440
Speaker 3: for Due to be competitive.

802
00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:42,799
Speaker 6: How about that, I'm gonna say, was candystry pants not

803
00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:44,040
Speaker 6: enough for you people?

804
00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:47,040
Speaker 4: Not enough? Can you imagine?

805
00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:49,320
Speaker 3: Not? You got? You gotta feed the beast fresh content

806
00:36:49,360 --> 00:36:50,719
Speaker 3: every week? James, it's the way this works.

807
00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:51,480
Speaker 2: That is true.

808
00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:53,440
Speaker 4: It is true. I told him he's gonna have to

809
00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:57,479
Speaker 4: be Purdue Pete next week. If that takes place, all right, Greg,

810
00:36:57,560 --> 00:36:58,080
Speaker 4: have a good one.

811
00:36:58,120 --> 00:36:58,799
Speaker 2: We'll talk to you soon.

Speaker 4: It's also Taylor's Swift Day.

Speaker 1: Mark Dyke didn't the she dropped her latest album at

816
00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:14,279
Speaker 1: midnight this morning, and it's probably setting all kinds of

817
00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:15,920
Speaker 1: records for downloads as we speak.

818
00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:19,720
Speaker 8: It's like six million like pre saved downloads on Spotify alone,

819
00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:21,120
Speaker 8: So I can only imagine.

820
00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:22,280
Speaker 4: Oh man, that's crazy.

821
00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:24,880
Speaker 8: People going through the lyrics like it's like solving a

822
00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:25,640
Speaker 8: cold case.

823
00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:27,400
Speaker 4: Wild that is.

824
00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:30,440
Speaker 6: I'm always surprised that people who are able to memorize

825
00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:33,480
Speaker 6: that stuff like right away, and I'm like, how do

826

Speaker 6: you know the lyrics in like three days?

827
00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:38,399

828

Speaker 1: through on Matt Taylor's drive to work this morning. Matt

00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:24,040
Speaker 1: I've been educated in the last few hours by Mark

848
00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:24,759
Speaker 1: Dyked and so.

849

Speaker 2: we get into your wonderful Taylor's tidbits. Colts and Raiders

852
00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:36,319
Speaker 2: back at home, coming up one o'clock on Sunday. Your

853
00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:40,360
Speaker 2: favorite Shaquille Leonard memory is what?

854
00:38:42,080 --> 00:38:45,520
Speaker 9: Well, my favorite play of his was the the pick

855
00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:50,160
Speaker 9: six he had against Tampa Bay in twenty and nineteen

856
00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:52,799
Speaker 9: I think it was twenty nineteen.

857
00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:56,160
Speaker 2: Famous Winston if I remember, yeah, Yeah, it was.

858
00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:57,920
Speaker 9: Late in the year and the Colts were trying to

859
00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:01,719
Speaker 9: make a playoff push that year, and he picked off

860
00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:04,600
Speaker 9: the first one and took it back to the house,

861
00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:07,399
Speaker 9: had another pick later on in that game. I mean,

862
00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:11,200
Speaker 9: there's so many of them. I actually talked to him yesterday.

863
00:39:12,239 --> 00:39:14,480
Speaker 9: We did an interview Laira Overton and I did an

864
00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:19,000
Speaker 9: interview with him on the phone in in advance for Sunday,

865
00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:22,280
Speaker 9: and we're going to play that interview tonight on colds

866
00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:24,959
Speaker 9: Happy Hour here on the Fan, and then we're also

867
00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:27,920
Speaker 9: going to play it again on our pregame show on Sunday,

868
00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:31,080
Speaker 9: and it's a really good interview. And you know, I

869
00:39:31,120 --> 00:39:34,160
Speaker 9: just asked him, and one of the questions I asked him, obviously,

870
00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:37,279
Speaker 9: is just how hard the end of his career was.

871
00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:40,359
Speaker 9: Because remember, I mean, Kevin, you were there for it.

872
00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:44,120
Speaker 9: I know you've you know, done the chronology on all

873
00:39:44,200 --> 00:39:48,200
Speaker 9: of this. But he had, you know, the ankle surgery

874
00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:53,080
Speaker 9: in nineteen and twenty one, and then he had the

875
00:39:53,719 --> 00:39:56,680
Speaker 9: back injury or the back surgery on the discs, you know,

876
00:39:56,719 --> 00:39:58,719
Speaker 9: to help some of the nerves that were going down

877
00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:01,920
Speaker 9: his leg because remember he didn't have the explosiveness in

878
00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:06,000
Speaker 9: the lower leg in the CAF area and they originated it.

879
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:08,120
Speaker 9: It's because he's got pinch nerves in his back with

880
00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:11,120
Speaker 9: some bulging disks. So he had surgery on that in

881
00:40:11,239 --> 00:40:13,960
Speaker 9: June of twenty twenty two. And then he gets a

882
00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:16,799
Speaker 9: concussion and breaks his nose and has to have a

883
00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:20,719
Speaker 9: surgery on the nose, I think in October of twenty two,

884
00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:24,239
Speaker 9: and then the season was shut down in November of

885
00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:27,759
Speaker 9: twenty two for another surgery on the back. So he

886
00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:30,879
Speaker 9: had four big time major surgeries.

887
00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:31,960
Speaker 7: In about a two year span.

888
00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:35,799
Speaker 9: And in talking to him yesterday, he also revealed that,

889
00:40:36,880 --> 00:40:39,360
Speaker 9: you know, he's had a major surgery on his body

890
00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:40,280
Speaker 9: every year.

891
00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:41,520
Speaker 7: Since twenty eighteen.

892
00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:45,399
Speaker 9: And you know, obviously that took its toll and kind

893
00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:49,160
Speaker 9: of robbed him of his superpowers, and he got very emotional.

894
00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:53,200
Speaker 9: And so I encourage people to check out that interview

895
00:40:53,640 --> 00:40:56,400
Speaker 9: later on tonight and this weekend if you can, you know,

896
00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:58,160
Speaker 9: if you're in your car listening in the radio. But

897
00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:00,920
Speaker 9: he just, I mean, yeah, I have to remind people

898
00:41:01,080 --> 00:41:04,000
Speaker 9: just how good he was and how he was able

899
00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:07,719
Speaker 9: to kind of cram in such an impactful career and

900
00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:11,200
Speaker 9: a short amount of time, because he basically played five

901
00:41:11,360 --> 00:41:14,000
Speaker 9: really good years. You know, his last year was twenty

902
00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:17,440
Speaker 9: and twenty three. But I mean, let's remember that in

903
00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:20,200
Speaker 9: twenty twenty one, when he was definitely in his prime,

904
00:41:20,719 --> 00:41:24,640
Speaker 9: led the NFL in takeaways created with sixteen. From twenty

905
00:41:24,680 --> 00:41:27,960
Speaker 9: eighteen to twenty twenty three, he ranked third and force

906
00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:31,799
Speaker 9: fumbles first and interceptions among all linebackers. He was the

907
00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:35,160
Speaker 9: only player in NFL history with ten or more interceptions

908
00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:39,480
Speaker 9: and fifteen or more force fumbles in his first five years.

909
00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:42,319
Speaker 9: And I went back and kind of tallied it up.

910
00:41:42,680 --> 00:41:47,680
Speaker 9: He had almost forty career takeaway plays in five years

911
00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:50,279
Speaker 9: in the NFL his first five years in the league. So,

912
00:41:51,160 --> 00:41:54,239
Speaker 9: I mean, there are certain players that you know that

913
00:41:54,280 --> 00:41:56,399
Speaker 9: are just kind of out there and they're doing their

914
00:41:56,480 --> 00:41:58,080
Speaker 9: job and I don't want to down play, you know,

915
00:41:58,160 --> 00:42:00,640
Speaker 9: their significance. And then there are guys like Zach Leonard

916
00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:04,960
Speaker 9: that just truly make game changing plays and turn the

917
00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:09,040
Speaker 9: game around with their presence, and that was certainly him.

918
00:42:09,520 --> 00:42:12,040
Speaker 9: He said that his favorite moment in the NFL, out

919
00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:15,920
Speaker 9: of all of them, was the key key QT go

920
00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:18,160
Speaker 9: ahead or Gary got I should say game would be

921
00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:21,719
Speaker 9: game tying touchdown. In twenty twenty, that COVID Year home

922
00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:24,840
Speaker 9: game at Lucas Oil Stadium. The Colts are winning twenty

923
00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:27,160
Speaker 9: seven to twenty, but the Texans have the ball and

924
00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:29,919
Speaker 9: they're driving with the Shawn Watson. He throws the pass

925
00:42:29,960 --> 00:42:32,719
Speaker 9: over the middle of the KEIKIQT and he's diving into

926
00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:34,640
Speaker 9: the end zone. Trying to get across the goal line,

927
00:42:34,680 --> 00:42:37,440
Speaker 9: but right before he does, Leonard comes like from his

928
00:42:37,600 --> 00:42:41,080
Speaker 9: left behind QT and just does his patented punch of

929
00:42:41,120 --> 00:42:44,759
Speaker 9: the ball, and yeah, it goes into the end zone,

930
00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:46,920
Speaker 9: recovered by the Colts for a touchback and they win

931
00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:50,440
Speaker 9: the game. So that's just the level of playmaking ability

932
00:42:50,480 --> 00:42:51,600
Speaker 9: that he had in a nutshell.

933
00:42:52,280 --> 00:42:55,680
Speaker 2: I cannot wait for that slight tease if you don't mind,

934
00:42:55,719 --> 00:42:57,560
Speaker 2: And hopefully that'll also be up on the Colts audio

935
00:42:57,640 --> 00:43:00,879
Speaker 2: networks if you can't catch it live on our airwaves.

936
00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:03,440
Speaker 2: What is he up to now, Matt, I've seen a

937
00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:05,560
Speaker 2: little bit of high school football. Looks like he's helping

938
00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:07,440
Speaker 2: out back in South Carolina. But what's he up to?

939
00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:11,439
Speaker 9: Yeah, he's back in his hometown of South Carolina.

940
00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:13,680
Speaker 7: And that's exactly right. He's coaching high school football.

941
00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:17,080
Speaker 9: Coaching is alma mater and and giving back and so

942
00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:20,719
Speaker 9: he's still is relating to the game and trying to

943
00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:23,800
Speaker 9: pay it forward to the youngsters in his community, because

944
00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:25,880
Speaker 9: I think he's probably the biggest role model you know

945
00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:28,280
Speaker 9: in that area. You know, very much a long shot

946
00:43:28,320 --> 00:43:30,960
Speaker 9: guy to make it to the NFL, you know, South

947
00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:35,360
Speaker 9: Carolina State and not a lot of high prospects to

948
00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:39,000
Speaker 9: go to college and just to be able to carve

949
00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:41,839
Speaker 9: out the career that he had is just simply unbelievable.

950
00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:44,600
Speaker 9: And you know, we asked him how he's doing physically,

951
00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:47,080
Speaker 9: and he said, you know, there's there's He has good

952
00:43:47,160 --> 00:43:49,840
Speaker 9: days and bad days, and it just kind of depends.

953
00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:52,000
Speaker 9: I mean, we all can, I guess, in a sense

954
00:43:52,080 --> 00:43:54,080
Speaker 9: relate to that when you wake up sometimes you just

955
00:43:54,120 --> 00:43:57,080
Speaker 9: don't feel right, and you know, it's certainly way more

956
00:43:57,120 --> 00:43:59,440
Speaker 9: accentuated when you've had the amount of surgeries and the

957
00:43:59,440 --> 00:44:02,160
Speaker 9: amount of where and tear that he put on his body.

958
00:44:02,200 --> 00:44:03,680
Speaker 7: But for the most parts.

959
00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:07,760
Speaker 9: Doing really good. And I think still coming to peace

960
00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:11,440
Speaker 9: a little bit with how his career ended. And I

961
00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:14,040
Speaker 9: think he's got certainly a bitter taste in his mouth,

962
00:44:14,320 --> 00:44:21,040
Speaker 9: but I think he's grown and is I think showing.

963
00:44:20,719 --> 00:44:22,520
Speaker 7: More and more reflection every day.

964
00:44:22,400 --> 00:44:25,000
Speaker 9: Just how blessed he was and how big of an

965
00:44:25,040 --> 00:44:28,080
Speaker 9: impact he had on the Colts organization, both on and

966
00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:30,200
Speaker 9: off the field, in the city of Indianapolis and all

967
00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:30,839
Speaker 9: the fans here.

968
00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:34,000
Speaker 6: I'll tell you what may say if I see him Sunday.

969
00:44:34,040 --> 00:44:35,880
Speaker 6: When I see him Sunday and he doesn't yell at

970
00:44:35,960 --> 00:44:38,239
Speaker 6: me and tell me that I disrespected him. I'm gonna

971
00:44:38,239 --> 00:44:41,200
Speaker 6: says he's lost his fastball a little bit. So looking

972
00:44:41,200 --> 00:44:43,799
Speaker 6: forward to seeing Shack Darius Leonard.

973
00:44:43,480 --> 00:44:45,799
Speaker 9: I'm sure, I'm sure he still has I'm still he's

974
00:44:46,080 --> 00:44:48,360
Speaker 9: He definitely has his screenshots of stuff.

975
00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:49,720
Speaker 7: I'm sure everybody.

976
00:44:49,280 --> 00:44:52,759
Speaker 9: Said that's that's what motivated him, right, I mean, that's

977
00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:53,800
Speaker 9: what made him great.

978
00:44:53,960 --> 00:44:56,520
Speaker 7: Was he played with a huge chip on his shoulder.

979
00:44:56,719 --> 00:44:59,959
Speaker 9: And whether it was like printing off tweets or screenshots,

980
00:45:00,360 --> 00:45:02,919
Speaker 9: hanging them up in his locker, like whatever, it gets

981
00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:05,040
Speaker 9: you going, that's what gets you going. In for Shack,

982
00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:07,480
Speaker 9: it was the doubters and trying to prove people wrong,

983
00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:09,480
Speaker 9: and he did over and over in the NFL.

984
00:45:09,760 --> 00:45:12,080
Speaker 6: Well, let's get this Friday going a bit more with

985
00:45:12,480 --> 00:45:15,320
Speaker 6: of course, your Matt Taylor, Taylor's tippets.

986
00:45:16,080 --> 00:45:19,320
Speaker 10: Let's dive into the nitty gritty I never knew that.

987
00:45:19,719 --> 00:45:24,839
Speaker 10: Grab a seat and take notes their storylines all over

988
00:45:24,920 --> 00:45:30,920
Speaker 10: the upcoming game. Clark say, it's time for Taylor's tidbits.

989
00:45:31,719 --> 00:45:32,520
Speaker 7: That's all right.

990
00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:36,720
Speaker 9: I got all right, guys, I got three good ones,

991
00:45:36,920 --> 00:45:40,040
Speaker 9: and I think the first one is it's league wide.

992
00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:42,200
Speaker 9: It's all around the NFL because I want to talk

993
00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:46,080
Speaker 9: about how these kickoffs are affecting things so far as

994
00:45:46,080 --> 00:45:49,000
Speaker 9: it relates to scoring, because field position in the NFL

995
00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:53,480
Speaker 9: is obviously way up dynamic kickoffs are being returned eighty

996
00:45:53,560 --> 00:45:56,839
Speaker 9: percent of the time so far this season. But with that,

997
00:45:57,280 --> 00:46:00,640
Speaker 9: you've got less distance to travel to the end zone

998
00:46:01,040 --> 00:46:04,759
Speaker 9: after a kickoff. So with that, NFL team so far

999
00:46:04,880 --> 00:46:08,280
Speaker 9: are averaging just over three hundred and twenty total yards

1000
00:46:08,320 --> 00:46:10,600
Speaker 9: per game league wide in.

1001
00:46:10,600 --> 00:46:12,040
Speaker 7: Twenty and twenty five.

1002
00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:16,960
Speaker 9: That is the fewest yards average in the NFL for

1003
00:46:17,080 --> 00:46:19,920
Speaker 9: a season since two thousand and six, or at least

1004
00:46:19,960 --> 00:46:20,560
Speaker 9: it would be.

1005
00:46:20,640 --> 00:46:21,959
Speaker 7: Since two thousand and six.

1006
00:46:22,040 --> 00:46:26,400
Speaker 9: So despite the overall yardage being down, scoring as you

1007
00:46:26,440 --> 00:46:29,520
Speaker 9: can imagine, is way up. So through four games in

1008
00:46:29,560 --> 00:46:32,719
Speaker 9: the NFL for four weeks, I should say teams are

1009
00:46:32,719 --> 00:46:35,360
Speaker 9: averaging twenty three point three points.

1010
00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:36,440
Speaker 7: Per game league wide.

1011
00:46:36,680 --> 00:46:39,720
Speaker 9: That's the highest scoring average in the NFL since twenty

1012
00:46:39,800 --> 00:46:43,160
Speaker 9: twenty and the fourth highest scoring average in a single

1013
00:46:43,239 --> 00:46:45,840
Speaker 9: season all time, and I think it's only going to

1014
00:46:45,920 --> 00:46:49,040
Speaker 9: go up from here. And teams are also punting way

1015
00:46:49,160 --> 00:46:53,120
Speaker 9: less so far this season. This season, We're on pace

1016
00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:56,920
Speaker 9: to have the fewest punts per game in any season

1017
00:46:57,440 --> 00:47:01,360
Speaker 9: since nineteen thirty nine, when punts were first track, teams

1018
00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:03,440
Speaker 9: are on pace to punt only about three and a

1019
00:47:03,480 --> 00:47:06,600
Speaker 9: half times per game, and the Colts are prime example

1020
00:47:06,640 --> 00:47:09,600
Speaker 9: of that. Right they've punted five times total for the season.

1021
00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:12,720
Speaker 9: That is the fewest in the NFL so far this year.

1022
00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:14,799
Speaker 7: It's also tied for the second.

1023
00:47:14,600 --> 00:47:17,520
Speaker 9: Fewest through four games of the season in the Super

1024
00:47:17,560 --> 00:47:20,279
Speaker 9: Bowl era. And field position in this game for the

1025
00:47:20,320 --> 00:47:23,239
Speaker 9: coltson Raiders is going to be really important. Hopefully the

1026
00:47:23,239 --> 00:47:26,440
Speaker 9: Colts can take advantage here. The Raiders ranked twenty eight

1027
00:47:26,640 --> 00:47:30,880
Speaker 9: and punt return average allowed at eighteen point eight and

1028
00:47:30,920 --> 00:47:35,040
Speaker 9: they are thirtieth in kickoff return average allowed at twenty

1029
00:47:35,120 --> 00:47:38,799
Speaker 9: eight point seven. So Anthony Gould could have a big

1030
00:47:38,840 --> 00:47:41,279
Speaker 9: game coming up on Sunday for the Colts. Now, I

1031
00:47:41,280 --> 00:47:43,600
Speaker 9: want to talk about tight end matchups in this game.

1032
00:47:44,320 --> 00:47:47,799
Speaker 9: We got Brock Bauers, we got Tyler Warren, two of

1033
00:47:47,800 --> 00:47:51,239
Speaker 9: the great you know, collegiate tight ends. They're doing their

1034
00:47:51,280 --> 00:47:54,520
Speaker 9: thing in the NFL. Currently, Warren leads the NFL and

1035
00:47:54,600 --> 00:47:59,520
Speaker 9: receiving yards among tight end, Bauers is third, and last

1036
00:47:59,600 --> 00:48:03,799
Speaker 9: year Bowers broke the all time NFL rookie record for

1037
00:48:03,920 --> 00:48:07,120
Speaker 9: catches what one hundred and twelve, which paced all tight

1038
00:48:07,200 --> 00:48:09,279
Speaker 9: ends in the NFL last season two by the way,

1039
00:48:09,680 --> 00:48:12,920
Speaker 9: and so far this year, Tyler Warren has the most

1040
00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:16,560
Speaker 9: receiving yards by any tight end through their first four

1041
00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:20,200
Speaker 9: games in NFL history. And also get this, fellas he

1042
00:48:20,320 --> 00:48:24,200
Speaker 9: has the most receiving yards through four games by any colt,

1043
00:48:24,719 --> 00:48:28,520
Speaker 9: doesn't matter position, tight end, wide receiver has the most

1044
00:48:28,560 --> 00:48:32,680
Speaker 9: receiving yards by any colt ever through their first four

1045
00:48:32,760 --> 00:48:36,600
Speaker 9: games of the season. Now, lastly, I want to talk

1046
00:48:36,600 --> 00:48:40,080
Speaker 9: about Ashton Genti, all right, the running back for the

1047
00:48:40,160 --> 00:48:43,520
Speaker 9: Las Vegas Raiders. Last week he had a buck thirty

1048
00:48:43,560 --> 00:48:46,520
Speaker 9: eight and led the team, had his best game of

1049
00:48:46,560 --> 00:48:51,640
Speaker 9: his young career. But you guys understand this whole concept

1050
00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:54,600
Speaker 9: of the Michael Myers stance that you heard about.

1051
00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:58,200
Speaker 2: This Yeah, yeah, please elaborate, but yes, this is fascinating.

1052
00:48:59,040 --> 00:49:03,239
Speaker 9: Okay, So Ashton genty and I'm playing ketchup on this

1053
00:49:03,280 --> 00:49:05,200
Speaker 9: because I didn't watch a whole lot of Boise State

1054
00:49:05,280 --> 00:49:09,920
Speaker 9: last year. He has this upright position in the backfield

1055
00:49:10,120 --> 00:49:13,800
Speaker 9: pre snap. You know, most running backs will stand behind

1056
00:49:13,800 --> 00:49:17,120
Speaker 9: the quarterback and like an athletic stand, have their knees

1057
00:49:17,200 --> 00:49:20,640
Speaker 9: bent or like their their their hands or their palms

1058
00:49:20,680 --> 00:49:25,600
Speaker 9: on their knee boards. But Ashton Genty just stand upright

1059
00:49:25,719 --> 00:49:28,160
Speaker 9: almost like he's like chilling the night club in the corner.

1060
00:49:28,320 --> 00:49:30,759
Speaker 2: He looks like he made a Bloomington bar in college.

1061
00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:34,920
Speaker 9: And so people have compared that to Michael Myers in

1062
00:49:35,000 --> 00:49:38,560
Speaker 9: terms of the upright posture. Like it's kind of weird

1063
00:49:38,600 --> 00:49:41,520
Speaker 9: and creepy that we're comparing this posture to a serial killer,

1064
00:49:41,840 --> 00:49:44,439
Speaker 9: but that's what he's done. So in the first three

1065
00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:48,040
Speaker 9: games of the season, are they Yeah, the first three

1066
00:49:48,080 --> 00:49:50,880
Speaker 9: games of the season, he did not use the Michael

1067
00:49:50,920 --> 00:49:54,680
Speaker 9: Myers posture. You know, I think Chip Kelly the offensive

1068
00:49:54,719 --> 00:49:57,360
Speaker 9: coordinators trying to coach that out of him, and you know,

1069
00:49:57,440 --> 00:50:01,400
Speaker 9: had decent success with it, you know, average three point

1070
00:50:01,440 --> 00:50:04,879
Speaker 9: one yards per carry. But last week he went back

1071
00:50:04,920 --> 00:50:08,480
Speaker 9: to the Myers upright dance and he averaged six point

1072
00:50:08,560 --> 00:50:12,120
Speaker 9: six yards per carry and he had five carries over

1073
00:50:12,239 --> 00:50:16,319
Speaker 9: ten yards. And so he's a very physical runner, you know,

1074
00:50:16,360 --> 00:50:18,239
Speaker 9: whatever you want to call it, Mike Myers or no

1075
00:50:18,360 --> 00:50:22,040
Speaker 9: Mike Myers, the guy can run over you. And he's

1076
00:50:22,040 --> 00:50:26,920
Speaker 9: got tons of yards after contact eighty nine percent of his.

1077
00:50:27,000 --> 00:50:28,280
Speaker 7: Season total rushing.

1078
00:50:28,680 --> 00:50:32,160
Speaker 9: His yards after contact. So I don't know if that's

1079
00:50:32,320 --> 00:50:34,360
Speaker 9: just you know, him being a physical runner or the

1080
00:50:34,400 --> 00:50:37,279
Speaker 9: offensive line not doing a good job to have some

1081
00:50:37,400 --> 00:50:39,319
Speaker 9: running lane for him to run through with the line

1082
00:50:39,360 --> 00:50:39,920
Speaker 9: of scrimmage.

1083
00:50:39,960 --> 00:50:42,680
Speaker 7: But you add all of that up and he is

1084
00:50:42,719 --> 00:50:44,160
Speaker 7: a brute force.

1085
00:50:44,320 --> 00:50:47,440
Speaker 9: And a bulldozer running the football. But big this week,

1086
00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:49,319
Speaker 9: they don't have their starting left tackle to.

1087
00:50:49,280 --> 00:50:50,759
Speaker 7: Open up lanes in the running game.

1088
00:50:50,840 --> 00:50:53,960
Speaker 9: Colton Miller's on IR with the high ankles frame. So

1089
00:50:54,239 --> 00:50:55,960
Speaker 9: let's see if the Colts can do a good job

1090
00:50:55,960 --> 00:50:58,520
Speaker 9: of stopping the run with Jensie the line of scrimmage

1091
00:50:58,640 --> 00:51:01,120
Speaker 9: and also getting some pass rush on Geno Smith.

1092
00:51:01,520 --> 00:51:03,080
Speaker 2: And we're talking a little bit earlier, Matt.

1093
00:51:03,120 --> 00:51:05,880
Speaker 4: You know, I think it's vital for several reasons.

1094
00:51:05,920 --> 00:51:08,680
Speaker 2: But if the Colts can play from ahead one, you

1095
00:51:08,719 --> 00:51:11,960
Speaker 2: can take advantage of, like you said, backup left tackle

1096
00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:13,520
Speaker 2: after lou two a lot too. I thought it had

1097
00:51:13,520 --> 00:51:17,040
Speaker 2: a really productive game last week in Surams and then two,

1098
00:51:17,160 --> 00:51:20,239
Speaker 2: maybe you get away from the gent focus in the

1099
00:51:20,280 --> 00:51:23,000
Speaker 2: second half. I mean that broken tackle stat is a

1100
00:51:23,200 --> 00:51:26,120
Speaker 2: wild one. And in the third and fourth quarter we've

1101
00:51:26,160 --> 00:51:27,840
Speaker 2: seen a first hand with Jonathan Taylor can do to

1102
00:51:27,920 --> 00:51:30,120
Speaker 2: opponents you don't want to have to tackle gent too

1103
00:51:30,160 --> 00:51:31,640
Speaker 2: many times there in the fourth quarter.

1104
00:51:32,360 --> 00:51:35,920
Speaker 9: Yeah, genty to your point, as the second most broken

1105
00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:37,359
Speaker 9: tackles in the NFL so.

1106
00:51:37,400 --> 00:51:39,840
Speaker 7: Far this year, you don't want to get him going downhill.

1107
00:51:39,840 --> 00:51:42,480
Speaker 9: He's I'm sure, just like Jonathan Taylor, where he just

1108
00:51:42,480 --> 00:51:44,240
Speaker 9: gets better as the game goes along.

1109
00:51:45,120 --> 00:51:46,880
Speaker 7: But that's what the Colts have been able to do.

1110
00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:50,120
Speaker 9: Is they haven't seen the high volume of the rushing

1111
00:51:50,160 --> 00:51:52,520
Speaker 9: attack from the opposition this year like they did last

1112
00:51:52,600 --> 00:51:56,200
Speaker 9: year because they're better on first and second down, yes,

1113
00:51:56,280 --> 00:51:59,320
Speaker 9: but they're also doing a good job offensively of getting

1114
00:51:59,320 --> 00:52:02,120
Speaker 9: off the fat arts and playing from ahead getting the lead,

1115
00:52:02,480 --> 00:52:04,919
Speaker 9: which is forcing the other offense to throw the ball

1116
00:52:04,960 --> 00:52:07,440
Speaker 9: to get back into the game. So the yards per

1117
00:52:07,520 --> 00:52:10,160
Speaker 9: carry numbers are do you want those to go down?

1118
00:52:10,360 --> 00:52:12,160
Speaker 7: But the overall volume.

1119
00:52:11,840 --> 00:52:14,719
Speaker 9: And the rushing total allowed by the Colt is very respectable.

1120
00:52:15,040 --> 00:52:17,279
Speaker 9: But I think it's because they're playing complimentary football on

1121
00:52:17,320 --> 00:52:18,080
Speaker 9: the other side on.

1122
00:52:18,080 --> 00:52:21,440
Speaker 2: Offense, Matt Taylor, you are the best.

1123
00:52:21,960 --> 00:52:24,319
Speaker 1: Are we going to see puddles the duck in the

1124
00:52:24,320 --> 00:52:25,920
Speaker 1: press box on Sunday at all?

1125
00:52:27,080 --> 00:52:27,200
Speaker 5: Well?

1126
00:52:27,200 --> 00:52:30,040
Speaker 9: I don't know how that bet went between the Forest

1127
00:52:30,040 --> 00:52:34,240
Speaker 9: Buckner and the Great Matt Conty, the Colts pr Wizard,

1128
00:52:34,680 --> 00:52:37,400
Speaker 9: the Pride of Penn State, had to pay up and

1129
00:52:38,400 --> 00:52:42,160
Speaker 9: lost that bet with the Forest Buckner and his fighting

1130
00:52:42,239 --> 00:52:45,040
Speaker 9: ducks from Oregon. So I don't know if that's just

1131
00:52:45,080 --> 00:52:47,640
Speaker 9: a one time saying or if that I can't imagine

1132
00:52:47,640 --> 00:52:49,719
Speaker 9: Matt Conty agreeing to wear that on game day in

1133
00:52:49,760 --> 00:52:50,520
Speaker 9: the press box.

1134
00:52:50,560 --> 00:52:52,160
Speaker 7: But we'll see.

1135
00:52:52,200 --> 00:52:55,200
Speaker 9: I mean, James, you had to wear your candy stripes for.

1136
00:52:55,080 --> 00:52:58,560
Speaker 7: Like two weeks, I thought, But yeah, that was extreme

1137
00:52:58,600 --> 00:53:01,080
Speaker 7: on your part. But yeah, you pay out right.

1138
00:53:01,080 --> 00:53:02,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, you know, you got to own up

1139
00:53:02,600 --> 00:53:02,799
Speaker 4: to it.

1140
00:53:02,880 --> 00:53:04,880
Speaker 6: I talked a lot of trash for about a month there,

1141
00:53:04,920 --> 00:53:07,040
Speaker 6: and I figured about a week of punishment was fair.

1142
00:53:07,160 --> 00:53:10,400
Speaker 6: So seeing Kanzi have to eat some crow after I

1143
00:53:10,440 --> 00:53:13,000
Speaker 6: did the same the week before, I felt no sympathy

1144
00:53:13,040 --> 00:53:15,200
Speaker 6: for that man. I thought he should have had the Franklin.

1145
00:53:15,200 --> 00:53:17,040
Speaker 6: I thought he should have stayed a little bit longer

1146
00:53:17,320 --> 00:53:20,040
Speaker 6: on the stage. But it was pretty funny trying to

1147
00:53:20,040 --> 00:53:23,239
Speaker 6: ask it Forest Buckner serious questions yesterday while Kanzi is

1148
00:53:23,239 --> 00:53:24,960
Speaker 6: standing there in a duck suit, So I can understand

1149
00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:26,480
Speaker 6: why he kind of set off to the side after

1150
00:53:26,480 --> 00:53:26,840
Speaker 6: a while.

1151
00:53:27,400 --> 00:53:31,480
Speaker 9: I also feel that I would make a pretty decent mascot.

1152
00:53:31,920 --> 00:53:34,680
Speaker 9: Like I don't have the athleticism that Blue has, but.

1153
00:53:34,680 --> 00:53:37,200
Speaker 7: I feel like I have. I would. I would like

1154
00:53:37,239 --> 00:53:37,799
Speaker 7: to think I have.

1155
00:53:37,920 --> 00:53:43,080
Speaker 9: Natural good mascot instincts on. You know, how to play

1156
00:53:43,080 --> 00:53:45,000
Speaker 9: it up to the crowd and how to be funny.

1157
00:53:45,040 --> 00:53:47,360
Speaker 9: And I'm not gonna do cartwheels and I'm not going

1158
00:53:47,400 --> 00:53:49,520
Speaker 9: to throw a football from the four hundred level into

1159
00:53:49,520 --> 00:53:50,560
Speaker 9: a plastic.

1160
00:53:50,120 --> 00:53:50,839
Speaker 7: Tube like Blue.

1161
00:53:51,000 --> 00:53:52,960
Speaker 9: But I mean, I feel like I could get a

1162
00:53:53,040 --> 00:53:55,000
Speaker 9: couple of chuckles here and there, Like if Blue was

1163
00:53:55,040 --> 00:53:57,279
Speaker 9: sick for a school show and I had to fill in,

1164
00:53:57,360 --> 00:53:58,960
Speaker 9: I feel like I could get through it for two

1165
00:53:58,960 --> 00:54:00,600
Speaker 9: hours that happen.

1166
00:54:00,680 --> 00:54:02,200
Speaker 4: Plus I would agree with that respect.

1167
00:54:02,280 --> 00:54:04,880
Speaker 1: Plus you get to throw cream pies into the faces

1168
00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:07,000
Speaker 1: of your coworkers every week. As near as I can tell.

1169
00:54:07,800 --> 00:54:10,040
Speaker 7: That's it right there, Trey Mock.

1170
00:54:10,080 --> 00:54:11,719
Speaker 2: Though, Matt Taylor, you might have a knock on your

1171
00:54:11,719 --> 00:54:12,960
Speaker 2: office door here pretty soon.

1172
00:54:13,280 --> 00:54:16,239
Speaker 9: Well, I preface with like, he's got the he's got

1173
00:54:16,239 --> 00:54:20,640
Speaker 9: the athleticism, and just I mean his drive and creativity

1174
00:54:20,719 --> 00:54:24,200
Speaker 9: has no bounds. I mean he dominant that all right,

1175
00:54:24,200 --> 00:54:27,239
Speaker 9: But I can I can barely turn my Instagram account off.

1176
00:54:28,200 --> 00:54:30,239
Speaker 4: Who get Spotify. Mark is urging you.

1177
00:54:31,280 --> 00:54:33,399
Speaker 9: I'm telling you I need all the help I can get.

1178
00:54:33,440 --> 00:54:33,720
Speaker 7: Boys.

1179
00:54:33,840 --> 00:54:35,440
Speaker 1: All right, buddy, we'll talk to you soon. Thank you

1180
00:54:35,440 --> 00:54:36,560
Speaker 1: as always, great stuff.

1181
00:54:37,120 --> 00:54:38,480
Speaker 7: All right, guys, have a good weekend.
