At the end. 35 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:41,400 Speaker 8: We got to be better. Obviously, we heard ourselves in 36 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:44,160 Speaker 8: a lot of situations with penalties. We got to take 37 00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 8: care of the football and that starts with me. 38 00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 1: So that's how it sounded yesterday Colts Radio Network. You 39 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:52,760 Speaker 1: heard from Shane Steichen there, you heard from Ady Mitchell. 40 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:54,600 Speaker 1: You heard from the voice of the Colts, Matt Taylor, 41 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,640 Speaker 1: as the Colts drop at twenty seven to twenty to 42 00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 1: the Los Angeles Rams at so Fights and the key 43 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 1: number yesterday was ten. There were numerous times where the 44 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 1: number ten came into play with the Colts yesterday. For example, 45 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,840 Speaker 1: I believe in this one, I'm not totally certain that 46 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 1: I believe this is correct. Was the penalty that was 47 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 1: called for the hole that negated Jonathan Taylor's touchdown. Was 48 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 1: that their tenth penalty of the game. They finished with eleven. 49 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 1: There were obviously two key plays that took place on 50 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 1: number ten, Ady Mitchell, that touchdown that you heard for 51 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 1: the Rams that gave them the game. Guess how many 52 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,800 Speaker 1: players were on the field for lou and Arumo's defense. 53 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 1: Ten And guess how many wide receivers were selected before 54 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 1: ad Ni Mitchell a year ago in the NFL draft. 55 00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 1: Ten of them. And there's a reason for that, and 56 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:10,560 Speaker 1: that reason is this. Imagine you go, as all of 57 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:14,360 Speaker 1: us at some point, dude, to buy yourself a new car. 58 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:17,800 Speaker 1: And you go and you're at the car lot and 59 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:21,080 Speaker 1: you're looking around, and this always happens. You see one 60 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:24,359 Speaker 1: car that you're like, wow, like that is a good 61 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 1: looking automobile. That is a beautiful car. It looks sleek. 62 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:32,640 Speaker 1: I got in it and took it around on the 63 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 1: test drive and it was fast and it was man 64 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 1: every bell and whistle like, this is the car. I 65 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 1: mean there are others on the lot that are probably, 66 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 1: but those other cars are all a little bit more expensive. 67 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 1: For this is an unbelievable deal. This car looks like 68 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 1: everything that I want it looks like everything that I need. 69 00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 1: This is the deal of a lifetime, and you get 70 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 1: the car, you buy it, and you're telling everybody, You're like, ah, 71 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 1: wait until you hear the deal I got on this car, 72 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 1: And wait till you see my new car. I mean, 73 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:16,120 Speaker 1: this is a fifty five thousand dollar vehicle and I 74 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 1: got it for forty two grand. And it's better looking, sleeker, 75 00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:21,880 Speaker 1: and faster than every other car that was on the 76 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 1: lot for forty two grand. I can tell you that much. 77 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:28,240 Speaker 1: And six months after getting it, you are driving up 78 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:30,280 Speaker 1: Meridian Street and all of a sudden you hear a 79 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:32,600 Speaker 1: could clunk and you look and it is sprayed fluid 80 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 1: all over Meridian and you're like, maybe there's a reason 81 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:40,159 Speaker 1: why this was forty two grand. Ady Mitchell is. He 82 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 1: has all the bells and whistles, he's sleek, he's fast, 83 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:49,039 Speaker 1: he looks the part. But you wonder why ten receivers 84 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 1: went before him, And what did we hear when he 85 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:58,600 Speaker 1: was selected? What did we hear from all of the 86 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 1: guru that do all of the scouting and all of 87 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 1: the forecast of a player. All the bells and whistles, 88 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 1: but comes with a warning there's a reason he was 89 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:18,960 Speaker 1: available big time program. Looks like the big time player, 90 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 1: but didn't have big time numbers in college. But it's 91 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:23,800 Speaker 1: gonna happen for him in the National Football League. But 92 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 1: the knock on him was lacks mental focus and maturity. 93 00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 1: Lacks mental focus and maturity. And you know what, it 94 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:38,480 Speaker 1: would be really easy for me to come on this 95 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 1: radio show today, as probably most people would expect me 96 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 1: to do, and maybe it's even my responsibility to do, 97 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 1: to come on here and for three hours throw Ady 98 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 1: Mitchell under the bus and say that was inexcusably boneheaded, 99 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 1: that between the dropping of the football before you get 100 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:04,239 Speaker 1: to the goal, and that in terms of a holding 101 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 1: penalty that negated a Jonathan Taylor touchdown that would have 102 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:09,719 Speaker 1: swung the game. Now you could make the argument maybe 103 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:11,840 Speaker 1: that touchdown doesn't happen without the hold. I get it. 104 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 1: But it would be very easy for me to sit 105 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:18,880 Speaker 1: here and say to you, we are today for three hours, 106 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:20,920 Speaker 1: going to condemn Ady Mitchell. We're going to come down 107 00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:23,280 Speaker 1: on Adie Mitchell. This is going to be a call 108 00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:26,280 Speaker 1: in program of talking about how you want to see 109 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:30,000 Speaker 1: Ashton Doolan, you want to see Alec Pierce. Alec Pierce 110 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:33,680 Speaker 1: got paid when I asked, I thought the best post 111 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:37,600 Speaker 1: yesterday the best when I said, give me your summary 112 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 1: of the Colts right now on how you feel about 113 00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 1: them through four games in four words or less. And 114 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 1: somebody's reply was ad got ap paid. Yeah, Alec Pierce. 115 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:55,279 Speaker 1: When you look at it without it was Alec Pierce 116 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 1: showed his best value by not being on the field 117 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:00,920 Speaker 1: in that game, because you look at it and you go, 118 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,360 Speaker 1: if they don't resign him, and Adie Mitchell's the guy, 119 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 1: this is what you're getting. And it would be easy 120 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:08,760 Speaker 1: for me to sit here and blame Adie Mitchell, and 121 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:10,680 Speaker 1: it would be easy for me to sit here and 122 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 1: tell you that that game yesterday is on Adie Mitchell, 123 00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:17,280 Speaker 1: and I'm here to tell you it's not true. It's 124 00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 1: not true. I'm not going to today on this Monday 125 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:22,880 Speaker 1: with the Colts at three and one, and yes, that 126 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 1: is ahead of where we thought they would be. And yes, 127 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 1: they showed yesterday they're pretty good. They're pretty good. They're 128 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:33,240 Speaker 1: good enough that we can be greedy about the fact 129 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 1: of losing a game in Los Angeles to what I 130 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:37,520 Speaker 1: think we know is a pretty good team and a 131 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 1: raucous environment with a big, armed veteran quarterback and a 132 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 1: receiver that absolutely tore them apart in Nikua. They are 133 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 1: good enough that we can be greedy and say should 134 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:56,800 Speaker 1: have had it except for that guy number ten. But 135 00:07:56,880 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 1: you know what it's going to be, just like in 136 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 1: Goodwill Hunting, Ady Mitchell is gonna be Will Hunting and 137 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be Robin Williams. It's not your fault, son, 138 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:18,560 Speaker 1: It's not your fault. It's not your fault. And while 139 00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 1: you sit here and Ady Mitchell looks at me and says, no, no, no, no, 140 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 1: not not you, not you, Sean, not you. It's not 141 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 1: your fault, son, It's not your fault. And while you 142 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:30,560 Speaker 1: the radio listener, are disappointed in hearing me say that, 143 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 1: because my job is to come on here and throw 144 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,240 Speaker 1: Ady Mitchell under the bus and condemn him and pin 145 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:38,840 Speaker 1: that loss on him, and say that the Colts should 146 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:41,720 Speaker 1: be four and zero. They should be unblemish, they should 147 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 1: be undefeated. They should have been flying over the beautiful 148 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 1: mountains of Colorado and the plains of Kansas on the 149 00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:53,600 Speaker 1: on the plane last night, enjoying it and celebrating. They 150 00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 1: should have been doing those things but they weren't because 151 00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 1: of Adie Mitchell. And I'm here to tell you it's 152 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:03,960 Speaker 1: not his fault. It's the fault of clearly a franchise 153 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 1: that has put him in position and enabled him to 154 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:11,199 Speaker 1: the point where, for whatever reason, those sorts of things. 155 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 1: Because everybody knew it, We've known forever, We've been waiting forever. 156 00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:21,040 Speaker 1: Adie Mitchell on one play summarized and personified everything about 157 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:24,360 Speaker 1: him in one play because we the fans, we the media, 158 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 1: we the people that talk about this team have been 159 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 1: told forever by the Colts, just be patient because there 160 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:34,320 Speaker 1: are gifts there, be patient because there are intangibles there, 161 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:39,079 Speaker 1: Be patient because there's big play capability there. And we've 162 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:43,840 Speaker 1: been patient. And then and I mentioned it, Reggie Wayne, 163 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:47,079 Speaker 1: a guy that as a young wide receiver, it took 164 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 1: him a while to get going, and then once he did, 165 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 1: holy cow, look out borderline Hall of Fame career. And 166 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:57,000 Speaker 1: Reggie Wayne is the receiving coach for the Indianapolis Colts. 167 00:09:57,040 --> 00:10:00,839 Speaker 1: And so therefore we had trust in the fact that, yes, 168 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 1: they knew when they kept telling us to be patient, 169 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:06,480 Speaker 1: that we were going to be rewarded for it, that 170 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,320 Speaker 1: it was all there for us, and in that play, 171 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:14,120 Speaker 1: Ady Mitchell goes down, turns around, makes essentially a one 172 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:17,080 Speaker 1: handed catch. I think, to be honest with you, even 173 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 1: he was surprised that he caught it. When he spins 174 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 1: around to get out of the grasp and take off 175 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:25,959 Speaker 1: down the sidelines. I think even he was like, oh 176 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:32,080 Speaker 1: my gosh, but he does. And so right there, we 177 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 1: as fans, we as the media, we as observers are 178 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:39,080 Speaker 1: looking at it saying, that's why we were told to 179 00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:42,719 Speaker 1: be patient. That's why they got the steal of the 180 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 1: draft when they took him as the eleventh wide receiver selected. 181 00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:50,200 Speaker 1: And how foolish is everybody else to allow ed Ni 182 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:56,080 Speaker 1: Mitchell to fall to the Indianapolis Colts. That's why we 183 00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:59,679 Speaker 1: look at it and said, just be patient and like 184 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:02,440 Speaker 1: Ali peers, once it gets going, we're going to start 185 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 1: seeing who he is. But the reason why we were 186 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 1: all skeptical is because we were told there's a reason 187 00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:11,480 Speaker 1: that he was available when they got him. We were 188 00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:15,280 Speaker 1: told there was concern about his focus, his maturity. Not 189 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:17,600 Speaker 1: saying it makes him a bad guy, not saying that 190 00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:20,640 Speaker 1: it makes him a guy that lacks intelligence, but simply 191 00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 1: a guy that lacked maturity. And lacked focus and wanted 192 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:33,920 Speaker 1: to bypass steps and process, And just as all of 193 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:36,440 Speaker 1: those things are starting to go away, and just as 194 00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:38,319 Speaker 1: all of those things that the Colts had told us 195 00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 1: to that we would be rewarded for what being patient over, 196 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 1: he drops the ball literally and figuratively, he drops the ball, 197 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:55,280 Speaker 1: and then later an attention to detail play, he gets 198 00:11:55,320 --> 00:12:00,880 Speaker 1: caught up. And so I don't blame Adie Mitchell. I 199 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:04,240 Speaker 1: blamed the Colts for putting Ady Mitchell and everybody who 200 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:07,640 Speaker 1: supports the Colts in that situation, because there had been 201 00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:10,440 Speaker 1: warning signs all along. Did he start to show that 202 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:11,360 Speaker 1: he's got some promise? 203 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:11,800 Speaker 3: He did. 204 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:19,240 Speaker 1: He did three catches for ninety six yards. But I 205 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:24,080 Speaker 1: did notice they come back out on the field, and 206 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 1: I thought it was very symbolic. Ady Mitchell all by himself, 207 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 1: away from the rest of the huddle, wandering the pastures 208 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 1: of the field, by his lonesome, collecting just his thoughts 209 00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:42,160 Speaker 1: of what took place, because not unlike so far his career, 210 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 1: it took a while for it to sink into him 211 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:47,520 Speaker 1: what had taken place when everybody else saw it before 212 00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 1: their very eyes. And I also noticed that the Colts 213 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 1: didn't go to him for a while. I didn't know 214 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:55,160 Speaker 1: if they were going to throw to him the rest 215 00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:57,160 Speaker 1: of the game. He had three targets to that point, 216 00:12:57,840 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 1: and he did make a play for them on their 217 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 1: final drip I've with a twelve yard reception when they 218 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:05,560 Speaker 1: needed a first down, but it seemed as though they 219 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:07,920 Speaker 1: went away from Ashton Doolan came in got to catch 220 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 1: for them, as he always does when they seemingly need 221 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 1: just like a last second quick bailout. Ashton Doolan's there 222 00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 1: only catching the game for Ashton Doolan. But it was 223 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:22,520 Speaker 1: a disappointment, and it was a disappointment because the Colts 224 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 1: have put so much in terms of their patients into 225 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:29,080 Speaker 1: Ady Mitchell and just when he started to show that 226 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:34,480 Speaker 1: that patience was rewarded, that happens. And I blamed the 227 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:36,800 Speaker 1: Colts for that, and I blame Shane Steichen for that, 228 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:40,040 Speaker 1: because it happened a year ago with Jonathan Taylor, and 229 00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 1: one would assume that when it happened then, and you 230 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:45,000 Speaker 1: saw how costly it was for the Colts on their season, 231 00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 1: that it would be absolutely preached upon, pounded upon, dedicated 232 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 1: upon everything they did to make sure those things and 233 00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:58,280 Speaker 1: that little lack of attention to detail doesn't happen again, 234 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 1: but it did. And I know culture is an overused 235 00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,160 Speaker 1: term in sports, and I think the Colts for the 236 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:07,400 Speaker 1: most part, have a pretty good culture this year. But 237 00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:13,760 Speaker 1: little things like that comes back to at some point 238 00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:17,720 Speaker 1: you say to yourself, you know what, when a kid 239 00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:19,360 Speaker 1: acts up, do you blame the kid or do you 240 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:24,000 Speaker 1: blame the parenting? And in this case, the Colts took 241 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:30,040 Speaker 1: a wide receiver that other teams decided to take ten 242 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 1: more before this guy. Now, I mean some of those players, 243 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:35,880 Speaker 1: it's pretty clear why. I mean, you know, elite level talents. 244 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:38,920 Speaker 1: I get it. But what I'm saying is there was 245 00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:43,720 Speaker 1: a reason he was available. This was not a secret. 246 00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:47,960 Speaker 1: The lack of attention to detail, the lack of maturity, 247 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:51,440 Speaker 1: the lack of focus, those were things that have been 248 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:56,640 Speaker 1: branded with ad Mitchell from day one, and yet the 249 00:14:56,720 --> 00:15:00,920 Speaker 1: Colts still took a flyer. I get that, but they 250 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:07,760 Speaker 1: have seemingly built him up, and even after last year 251 00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:12,120 Speaker 1: with Jonathan Taylor and that situation, for whatever reason, their 252 00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:14,800 Speaker 1: coaching did not make it clear enough. Shane Steigen himself 253 00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:19,640 Speaker 1: said it's on me. It's on me. And with all 254 00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 1: of that, I still actually think and maybe I'm just 255 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:32,360 Speaker 1: rose colored glasses, maybe I'm the eternal optimist. But even 256 00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 1: with that, I think there are things that you can 257 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 1: be happy about. From yesterday for the Colts. This guy's crazy. 258 00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 1: I turn on the radio, I'm expecting him to absolutely 259 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:46,240 Speaker 1: eviscerate the wide receiver that cost the Colts the game 260 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:49,280 Speaker 1: yesterday with two costly plays. And he's on here apologizing 261 00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:52,480 Speaker 1: for the guy, saying that actually, the responsibility is above 262 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:56,280 Speaker 1: that guy. And then on top of that, get this. 263 00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 1: They lose that game twenty seven to twenty and this 264 00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:02,440 Speaker 1: guy's on the radio set and it's not altogether a 265 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 1: lost cause I get it. People are disappointed, maybe a 266 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:10,640 Speaker 1: little bit poed over the fact that Colt should be 267 00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 1: four and zero. Now they got you know, sometimes in 268 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:18,640 Speaker 1: the NFL, the NFL giveth and the NFL taketh away. Okay, 269 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:26,720 Speaker 1: because yes, yesterday they dropped the ball, but so too 270 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:32,480 Speaker 1: to Denver back here right with the weird leverage call, 271 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:35,160 Speaker 1: So maybe the football gods even it out a little bit. 272 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:37,560 Speaker 1: Bottom line is through the first quarter of the season 273 00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:41,640 Speaker 1: kind of a quarter because now they play seventeen, not sixteen. 274 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:45,440 Speaker 1: But follow me there, they're three and one they are 275 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:49,920 Speaker 1: still in really good position. And they went in against 276 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:53,240 Speaker 1: a team in Los Angeles, the Rams that many consider 277 00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:56,920 Speaker 1: to be certainly a dare I say it upper quartile 278 00:16:56,960 --> 00:17:00,240 Speaker 1: of upper quartile team in the NFL rare air, and 279 00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 1: in going into that stadium, they lost that game on 280 00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:10,400 Speaker 1: their own. They didn't get beat, they beat themselves. And 281 00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:15,959 Speaker 1: the players that were most responsible for beating them, not 282 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:18,720 Speaker 1: named Adie Mitchell, are guys that they weren't supposed to 283 00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:23,480 Speaker 1: be playing with to begin with. Attrition put them in 284 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:26,640 Speaker 1: a situation where they literally were on LinkedIn and tenders 285 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:29,640 Speaker 1: swipe into the right to try to find themselves corners 286 00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:32,680 Speaker 1: and defensive back help. And yes, one of the guys 287 00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:35,240 Speaker 1: they got. I mean, can we now say, Eddie, I 288 00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:37,840 Speaker 1: think you'll agree with me on this. I came in 289 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 1: and let me tell you the first thing Eddie Garrison 290 00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:41,640 Speaker 1: said to me when I walked in today. I got 291 00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:44,720 Speaker 1: into work this morning. I walked in, I sat down. 292 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:47,199 Speaker 1: I thought I heard a small dog. I thought, what 293 00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 1: in the world is that dog? And then I realized 294 00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:51,520 Speaker 1: it wasn't a dog barking. It was Eddie Garrison, who 295 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:56,600 Speaker 1: was saying to me repeatedly, on repeat Jake Xavian Howard Woof, 296 00:17:57,240 --> 00:18:03,160 Speaker 1: burnt toast Woof. It's Antonio Cramarti Part two, Like we're 297 00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:05,480 Speaker 1: gonna find a guy that's been a good player, that 298 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:09,600 Speaker 1: has history, and now we find out why he was available. 299 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:12,879 Speaker 1: That's the theme of today. Why were they available? 300 00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:16,240 Speaker 7: Why was he on puking a cool on fourth and two? 301 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:20,159 Speaker 1: Well, I mean, why did they have ten guys on 302 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 1: the field? 303 00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:20,800 Speaker 3: Right? 304 00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:24,679 Speaker 1: That's another one. There were a lot of mental errors 305 00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 1: in that game yesterday, and there was a lot of 306 00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 1: mental breakdown and the guy that was the most responsible 307 00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:32,520 Speaker 1: for the two biggest ones. It's somewhat on the Colts. 308 00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:35,960 Speaker 1: It's not even on him. I don't know that Ady 309 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:39,480 Speaker 1: Mitchell at any point has Maybe I'm I'm way off 310 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:44,680 Speaker 1: base here, but his Ady Mitchell, clearly the things that 311 00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:51,280 Speaker 1: needed to be preached upon to him never took hold, 312 00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 1: and at some point you've got to say that's on 313 00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:04,359 Speaker 1: those that are paid handsomely to make him responsible for 314 00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:07,560 Speaker 1: those things. That's eventually on them. But there were other 315 00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:14,040 Speaker 1: areas yesterday that were breakdowns that are frustrating, the penalties, 316 00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:17,280 Speaker 1: the lack of having an eleventh defender on the field, 317 00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:21,440 Speaker 1: there were so many things that you're going to look 318 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 1: back on and say they should have had that game, 319 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 1: But the football gods and the karma as such, they 320 00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:30,480 Speaker 1: probably even if they'd gotten that game, they got bailed 321 00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:33,640 Speaker 1: out a little against Denver. So you say to yourself, 322 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:37,120 Speaker 1: I'll take three and one. I'll take it, And I've 323 00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:41,160 Speaker 1: got to be happy with the fact that the players 324 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:46,160 Speaker 1: not named Ady Mitchell that really hurt them yesterday are 325 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:49,720 Speaker 1: players that were out there almost out of necessity, as 326 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:53,960 Speaker 1: opposed to because the franchise totally believes in them. There's 327 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:56,320 Speaker 1: no Kenny Moore, so you got to have somebody out there, right, 328 00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:59,080 Speaker 1: There's no Jalen Jones, so you got to have somebody 329 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:04,359 Speaker 1: out there, and that they are limping their way until 330 00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:06,159 Speaker 1: they can get back to one hundred percent, and then 331 00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:08,199 Speaker 1: you've got to feel pretty good about what you have. 332 00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:11,359 Speaker 1: And I realized that the NFL game is a constant, 333 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:16,600 Speaker 1: everflow of attrition when it comes to injury. But there's 334 00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:20,359 Speaker 1: a ton to unpack from that game and a huge 335 00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:24,960 Speaker 1: weekend in sports in general. Last week was massive in sports, 336 00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:29,240 Speaker 1: massive right, and we were and we had all kinds 337 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:31,840 Speaker 1: of good stuff going on. There still are good things 338 00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:34,760 Speaker 1: to talk about, how about the fever, getting a win, 339 00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:37,920 Speaker 1: extending again, going to a decisive game five back in 340 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 1: Las Vegas. It's going to be tomorrow night, Eddie. You're 341 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:42,880 Speaker 1: going to be basically drinking yourself more than the Java 342 00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 1: House coffee, right, because drinking again. 343 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:46,720 Speaker 7: It's gonna be late, Yeah, pretty much. Yeah, nine thirty 344 00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:48,920 Speaker 7: tomorrow night, nine thirty tomorrow night. Yeah, I'll be here. 345 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:50,320 Speaker 7: I'll be here until midnight. 346 00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:56,240 Speaker 1: At least did I thought midnight was going to strike 347 00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:02,760 Speaker 1: for Indiana and for their high dreams and they're unbeaten 348 00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:07,280 Speaker 1: dreams and going into Oregon. I thought, actually, on not 349 00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 1: one but two occasions on Saturday, I was thinking to 350 00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:14,120 Speaker 1: myself Indiana after their by going into Oregon, it's going 351 00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:16,280 Speaker 1: to be two teams, neither of both of which are 352 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 1: already gonna have a loss by the time they get 353 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:21,200 Speaker 1: to that game. And yet Oregon obviously pulls it out 354 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:24,520 Speaker 1: at Penn State, and Indiana does so in Iowa and 355 00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:27,760 Speaker 1: Kinnick Stadium, which is a tough place to play. And 356 00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 1: I think the world of Kirk Farrence and the Hawkeyes. 357 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:35,960 Speaker 1: Indiana looked sluggish in that game. They looked like their 358 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:38,720 Speaker 1: offense couldn't necessarily get in full rhythm and how much 359 00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:44,000 Speaker 1: of that was Indiana's play calling and how much of 360 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 1: that was Iowa doing what Iowa does to you and 361 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 1: just slogging you down and punching you in the mouth. 362 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:52,760 Speaker 1: And then Indiana, when they most needed it, comes up 363 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:57,440 Speaker 1: and you know, Fernada Mendoza makes a huge play. Sarat 364 00:21:57,440 --> 00:21:59,639 Speaker 1: made a huge play too, But they come up with 365 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 1: the play when they most need it. And now Indiana 366 00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:05,840 Speaker 1: finds themselves ranked in the top ten, where if they 367 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 1: can stay in the top ten, it is guaranteed they 368 00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:10,159 Speaker 1: will win at Penn State because James Franklin has no 369 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 1: idea what to do at home against top ten teams. Right. 370 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:15,320 Speaker 7: The one concern I had, Jake, is that is that 371 00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:17,720 Speaker 7: Iowa got a lot of pressure with blitzing in Indiana 372 00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 7: didn't have any answers for it, like that they kept 373 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:23,960 Speaker 7: getting into third in the grid, you know, medium thirdy 374 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 7: in long ish and. 375 00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:26,640 Speaker 1: That's kind of what i would does too, though that's 376 00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:29,480 Speaker 1: my thing, right, is that's Iowa strength. But yes, that 377 00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:31,360 Speaker 1: is an area that I was not the only team 378 00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 1: in the Big ten that's going to be able to 379 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:33,280 Speaker 1: do that, right, And I. 380 00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:35,960 Speaker 7: Was looking at this just to the predictability. It's something 381 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:38,240 Speaker 7: I always like like to look at during NFL gams, 382 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:39,880 Speaker 7: like how often on first down or on the first 383 00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:42,800 Speaker 7: play of AFI are you running the football? The Hoosiers 384 00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:45,960 Speaker 7: did it ten out of twelve times on Saturday. The 385 00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:47,960 Speaker 7: only two times they didn't is at the end of 386 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 7: the first half and then following the interception. 387 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:54,520 Speaker 1: I think Indiana game has had so much success running 388 00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:58,840 Speaker 1: the football to this point in the season that they 389 00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:00,960 Speaker 1: thought they were going to be able to routinely do 390 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:04,160 Speaker 1: it against Iowa, and they found out obviously that not to. 391 00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:04,600 Speaker 3: Be the case. 392 00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:07,359 Speaker 1: But big show lined up for you today. We're going 393 00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:10,639 Speaker 1: to talk about a lot about the Colts game. Mike 394 00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:12,560 Speaker 1: Chap'll going to join us at one o'clock. Aeron Nee 395 00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 1: Smith PACER's media day is today, Is that right, Eddie? 396 00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:16,000 Speaker 7: That is right. 397 00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:19,680 Speaker 1: They're all getting together and gathering and taking photos and 398 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:23,080 Speaker 1: doing TikTok videos and making memes and season. 399 00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:26,440 Speaker 7: It starts a week from tomorrow, which is crazy, right. Yeah, 400 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:28,919 Speaker 7: don't Aaron Nee Smith going to join us? What time 401 00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:30,800 Speaker 7: did you say?

No, 405 00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 7: I'm aware, but his initials are A in right, I know, 406 00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:44,640 Speaker 7: but you can't call him A because there's Andrew Nimhart okay, fair, 407 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:48,080 Speaker 7: So they call him double a fair also kind of 408 00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:52,000 Speaker 7: double a. Like the battery provides energy, Aaron Smith, we 409 00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:53,479 Speaker 7: can get one more A for him.

Do we still have the shout sounder, Eddie? 417 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:18,520 Speaker 1: We've gotten away from that, but we used to do 418 00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:21,760 Speaker 1: the shout sounder, which was our queue to let the 419 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:26,879 Speaker 1: masses know that. Because I do know this and I 420 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:32,520 Speaker 1: get it. At Quarry and Company, we are a We 421 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:35,679 Speaker 1: literally are the customer based company. And I'm wearing my 422 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:39,800 Speaker 1: T shirt today Memphis show boats. Not intentional, not intentional, 423 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 1: I just like the USFL look to it. But are 424 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:44,520 Speaker 1: the Colts and Ady mitchell too much of showboats. 425 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:49,320 Speaker 7: I had to dust off the cop webs, Jake, but uh. 426 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:53,960 Speaker 1: There we go. That you can because I know what 427 00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:55,720 Speaker 1: it's like when you watch a game and you sit 428 00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:58,080 Speaker 1: there and you're you're yelling at the television and you're 429 00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:01,640 Speaker 1: upset and you're irritated, and you feel like you as 430 00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:04,160 Speaker 1: a fan, your voice is not being heard. You feel 431 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:06,359 Speaker 1: like there are frustrations that people need to know about. 432 00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:09,840 Speaker 1: Two three nine one zero seven zero two three nine 433 00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:12,560 Speaker 1: ten seventy is the telephone number. Over the course of today, 434 00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:15,800 Speaker 1: we will continue to interact with you as well, but 435 00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:17,959 Speaker 1: we will continue to break down what happened yesterday. Mike 436 00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 1: Chapel one o'clock, Aaron Niemith double A two thirty Big 437 00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:23,080 Speaker 1: one lined up for you here on a Monday. It's 438 00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:27,520 Speaker 1: quiring company on the fan. I like the text that 439 00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:29,960 Speaker 1: I received. By the way, you can always text the program. 440 00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:32,879 Speaker 1: Two three nine ten seventy is the way to text 441 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:35,480 Speaker 1: to the station. If you want to do it to 442 00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:38,680 Speaker 1: me individually, that's cool as well. I only say that 443 00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:40,800 Speaker 1: because I think most people by now have my number. 444 00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:44,440 Speaker 1: I've given it out a number of times. Hey, Jake, 445 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:48,720 Speaker 1: no matter what happens this season, Ballard's time should be up. 446 00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:52,560 Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson and Ady Mitchell are the same organizational problem 447 00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:54,840 Speaker 1: I'm reading. By the way, A Texas is not me talking, 448 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:58,640 Speaker 1: though I don't fundamentally disagree with all of it. Ballard 449 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:02,159 Speaker 1: or his team saw great physical traits and then rationalized 450 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:08,120 Speaker 1: and ignored the red flags, listing it as mere immaturity. 451 00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:11,960 Speaker 1: There is a level of truth to this, the analogy 452 00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:16,360 Speaker 1: that I've always given. We all have been in this situation, 453 00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:24,000 Speaker 1: all of us. Either sometimes it was we were the 454 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 1: ones guilty of this. Sometimes it was somebody in your group, 455 00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:31,240 Speaker 1: one of your buddies. But everybody has that one person 456 00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:35,320 Speaker 1: they dated that was way out of their league. And 457 00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:37,359 Speaker 1: I mean literally it's like have you have you seen 458 00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:41,080 Speaker 1: Joe's new girlfriend? Like holy cow, man, Like that dude 459 00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:43,879 Speaker 1: totally outkicked his coverage. And then it's like, yeah, but 460 00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 1: there's a lot going on there. 461 00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:46,520 Speaker 3: What do you mean? 462 00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 1: Well, and you know, kind of a wild child, and 463 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:54,040 Speaker 1: like every fifth time you make if you call them, 464 00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:56,960 Speaker 1: they actually answer, and every third time you make a date, 465 00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:01,680 Speaker 1: they actually follow through. But like you're like, you're captivated 466 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:04,640 Speaker 1: by what could be. And so even though everybody else 467 00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:06,080 Speaker 1: is like I don't know, man, I think you might 468 00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:07,639 Speaker 1: be getting played here a little bit. You're like, no, 469 00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 1: I trust me. When we walk into the bar and 470 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:12,959 Speaker 1: everybody sees me with her, it's awesome, And there are 471 00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:17,040 Speaker 1: other times it's awesome, and so you get caught up 472 00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:23,879 Speaker 1: in the visuals of it all and you kind of 473 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:28,040 Speaker 1: overlook some of the baggage that comes with it. And 474 00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:30,560 Speaker 1: I do think and I get it. I think the 475 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:33,399 Speaker 1: problem the Colts have had and I think this is 476 00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:38,680 Speaker 1: turning around. But the problem the Colts have had is this. 477 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:46,360 Speaker 1: You can draft questionable characters into your franchise, into your 478 00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:49,640 Speaker 1: locker room, if your locker room and your franchise are 479 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:53,960 Speaker 1: strong enough and have good enough veteran leadership to immediately 480 00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:56,800 Speaker 1: let it be known where the lion in the sand is. 481 00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:01,840 Speaker 1: But if you draft questionable character in and your leaders 482 00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:06,120 Speaker 1: are themselves not questionable characters but are immature, then it's 483 00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:10,840 Speaker 1: never going to resolve itself. It's never going to all 484 00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:14,720 Speaker 1: of a sudden become a non issue. And the problem. 485 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:18,280 Speaker 1: I do think the Colts have taken the right steps 486 00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:22,119 Speaker 1: in turning around that culture a little bit. You know, 487 00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:26,480 Speaker 1: DeForest Buckner is a really good leader, and Daniel Jones. 488 00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:30,280 Speaker 1: I think brings a level of just a maturity and 489 00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:33,439 Speaker 1: a lunch pale nature about him that is starting to 490 00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:40,480 Speaker 1: take effect. But nonetheless, you still have you know, like 491 00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:43,200 Speaker 1: when ad Mitchell first came in, clearly whatever message they 492 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:46,800 Speaker 1: were trying to get to him didn't resonate. Cameron joins 493 00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:50,160 Speaker 1: it two through nine, ten seventy Cameron, what's up. 494 00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:56,040 Speaker 9: Hey, the whole ad Mitchell thing. I was listening to 495 00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 9: the radio broadcast as the play happened, and I was 496 00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:02,040 Speaker 9: so happy as he was going down the field because 497 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 9: I thought he was shedding all that baggage that he had. 498 00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:09,680 Speaker 9: And then I was just so disappointed, Like I know, 499 00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 9: I'm not a parent, I'm not a parent, but I've 500 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:14,760 Speaker 9: gotten the I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed. How could 501 00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:17,440 Speaker 9: you be this much of a bonehead. That's that's what 502 00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:20,840 Speaker 9: I was feeling, Not Agar, just ugh, Cameron. 503 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:23,360 Speaker 1: I think I mean, in all honesty, and you tell 504 00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:25,000 Speaker 1: me if you agree with this, I think you will. 505 00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 1: But as it was happening, and by the way, we 506 00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:31,200 Speaker 1: greatly appreciate that you were listening to the radio broadcast 507 00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 1: of it on this radio station, But as it was happening, 508 00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:38,560 Speaker 1: what I was thinking to myself, was this exactly what 509 00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:40,960 Speaker 1: you're talking about. He's shedding it all right here before us. 510 00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:44,320 Speaker 1: And then it wasn't the imagery that he dropped, it 511 00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:46,640 Speaker 1: was the football. And I thought to myself, this is 512 00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:50,680 Speaker 1: the most perfectly encapsulated summary of a player in one 513 00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:52,400 Speaker 1: play that we've seen in quite some time. 514 00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 9: Right, yeah, yeah, just he had like you said, he 515 00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:59,360 Speaker 9: had all the talent to be one of the top 516 00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:03,440 Speaker 9: receivers AFT if he didn't just have that reputation, which 517 00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:05,880 Speaker 9: we're finding out is more and more true. And I 518 00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:08,760 Speaker 9: hope he can develop past that. You know, But it 519 00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:11,440 Speaker 9: takes an elite level of mental focus to be an 520 00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:12,680 Speaker 9: NFL football player. 521 00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:15,800 Speaker 1: Correct, and Cameron here, and I appreciate the call. Here 522 00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:20,719 Speaker 1: is my concern. I agree with that it takes an 523 00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:24,320 Speaker 1: elite level of mental focus to be an NFL player. 524 00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:30,760 Speaker 1: It also takes an elite level of aptitude, mental focuness, 525 00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:37,240 Speaker 1: and mental focus and maturity to rebound and to come 526 00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:44,440 Speaker 1: back from what yesterday was a dejected Ady Mitchell. Let 527 00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:47,160 Speaker 1: me play for you, Adie Mitchell after the game yesterday, 528 00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:53,640 Speaker 1: because this, to me, for a this is a player 529 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:58,160 Speaker 1: that we have been waiting for, the maturity to come 530 00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:02,960 Speaker 1: to him, to allow him to blossom as a player. Now, 531 00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:07,160 Speaker 1: just as we're wondering whether or not that's ever gonna 532 00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:12,360 Speaker 1: take place, now we've added another layer of maturity that 533 00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:16,320 Speaker 1: he needs to mentally grow into, which is that of 534 00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:21,920 Speaker 1: coming back from that level of disappointment and that level 535 00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:26,120 Speaker 1: of not one, but two critical errors. This is Ady 536 00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:27,920 Speaker 1: Mitchell in the locker room, and you will hear a 537 00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:30,600 Speaker 1: couple of other voices. I believe Stephen Holder One, James 538 00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:33,720 Speaker 1: Moyd Boyd may be there. I'm not sure how much 539 00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:35,640 Speaker 1: of this we're gonna hear. Andrews Charonoff from Channel eight 540 00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:38,479 Speaker 1: was also in the group. This is Ady Mitchell talking 541 00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:40,320 Speaker 1: yesterday at his locker after the game. 542 00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:44,080 Speaker 6: It was a matter of los and focus and just 543 00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:48,360 Speaker 6: to just to play that I just can't happen. Just 544 00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:52,440 Speaker 6: just unacceptable. I just got to be better for the 545 00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:54,080 Speaker 6: team and for the organization. 546 00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:57,640 Speaker 10: What are your emotions after you know, something like that, 547 00:31:57,880 --> 00:31:58,960 Speaker 10: I can imagine, but I want to. 548 00:31:58,920 --> 00:31:59,280 Speaker 1: Hear from you. 549 00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:05,239 Speaker 6: Yeah, me, definitely not the good ones, just you know, 550 00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:10,680 Speaker 6: trying to move forward and you know, learn from learn 551 00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:13,160 Speaker 6: from the previous mistakes and get. 552 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:16,240 Speaker 10: Better, just kind of get basically caught up in the 553 00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:18,840 Speaker 10: moment there were were you trying to celebrate or what 554 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:21,400 Speaker 10: I mean, I don't know what you just run The boss. 555 00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:24,120 Speaker 3: Made him play that game. 556 00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:27,640 Speaker 6: Coach that after a trthan lost that football crust level 557 00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:30,240 Speaker 6: where he didn't dream. The appointed memphisis everything in the 558 00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:32,480 Speaker 6: room and let us in the logos. 559 00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:33,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, we. 560 00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:38,960 Speaker 6: Yeah, we just gonna move forward and you know, learn 561 00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:42,680 Speaker 6: from us, learned from my mistakes, and you. 562 00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:44,400 Speaker 3: Know, be better for the team. Do yuh? 563 00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:47,520 Speaker 10: Did JT touchdown a call back? Obviously? I mean just 564 00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:49,640 Speaker 10: what did you see when you look at the replay? 565 00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:52,240 Speaker 6: That's you know, let us a logos, Like the coach said, 566 00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:56,120 Speaker 6: like we just hit on and just you know, just 567 00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:59,520 Speaker 6: just be better for the organization, you know, just just play. 568 00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:02,560 Speaker 6: Hurt hurt a lot. 569 00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:05,520 Speaker 10: So yeah, that so because I was on some of 570 00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:09,120 Speaker 10: the touchdown today that you have to holding call. 571 00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:11,400 Speaker 3: I think they call that knew did you. 572 00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:13,480 Speaker 6: Would you would you see started replace trying to make 573 00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:15,440 Speaker 6: a play. 574 00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:17,760 Speaker 9: Get a couple of your teammates when they came up 575 00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:19,560 Speaker 9: to you, just to have their support for what did 576 00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:20,560 Speaker 9: that mean in that moment? 577 00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:25,960 Speaker 6: I could have really process it, you know, kind of 578 00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:35,080 Speaker 6: in the moment I mean, really still pay processes. 579 00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:35,080 Speaker 3: To be real. 580 00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:38,640 Speaker 6: So I just gotta you know everything is my whole 581 00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:41,720 Speaker 6: play happened, you know because of me. Know the way 582 00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:45,000 Speaker 6: I'm gonna be able to get forward is you know, 583 00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:47,719 Speaker 6: just growing as a as a player, as a person. 584 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:51,840 Speaker 1: So a couple of things here. Number one, there was 585 00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:54,360 Speaker 1: a lot of background noise, right, A lot of background 586 00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:59,640 Speaker 1: noise there, which again is symbolic because with Adi Mitchell, 587 00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:03,480 Speaker 1: that's been the thing, is all the background noise, and 588 00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:09,280 Speaker 1: was he contrite? Clearly? He was bothered by that, clearly, 589 00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:15,840 Speaker 1: and maybe this is the first time that he's had 590 00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:19,359 Speaker 1: that actual wake up call. It's one thing to have 591 00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:23,319 Speaker 1: your place of employment tell you gotta shape up. It's 592 00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:29,359 Speaker 1: another to then see tangibly the results of your lack 593 00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:36,560 Speaker 1: of focus. And that play again perfectly encapsulated Ady Mitchell 594 00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:41,399 Speaker 1: because you saw why they are so intrigued by him, 595 00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:45,520 Speaker 1: but you also saw why so many people didn't buy 596 00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:53,880 Speaker 1: into the intrigue. And now it's really on him to 597 00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:56,360 Speaker 1: move forward from it. But I think it's on the 598 00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:59,719 Speaker 1: cults the fact that that position was there to begin with, 599 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:05,439 Speaker 1: because again, like fool me once, shame on you, fool 600 00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:08,600 Speaker 1: me twice. Shame on me, right, and in that situation 601 00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:13,640 Speaker 1: dropping the ball before he gets to the goal line. 602 00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:17,160 Speaker 1: That's something that costs the Colts arguably a postseason bit 603 00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:21,000 Speaker 1: a year ago, and if your players are still doing it, 604 00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:23,720 Speaker 1: then you start to go above that and ask why. 605 00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:26,560 Speaker 1: But there are other things to talk about from the 606 00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:33,799 Speaker 1: game itself, for example, Shane Steichen's overall observation of what 607 00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:38,040 Speaker 1: cost the Colts yesterday in Los Angeles and Daniel Jones 608 00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:41,239 Speaker 1: what sort of guidance can he give coming off of that. 609 00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:43,839 Speaker 1: We'll get to that and we'll let you hear from 610 00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:46,880 Speaker 1: both of them upcoming. Mike Chapel in twenty two actually 611 00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:51,160 Speaker 1: about twenty minutes from now, Eronie Smith going to join 612 00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:55,479 Speaker 1: us to thirty today Pacers media day fever getting set 613 00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:59,480 Speaker 1: for a game five tomorrow night in Las Vegas to 614 00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:03,160 Speaker 1: try to advance to the w NBA Finals. There was 615 00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:05,239 Speaker 1: a bit of a am I correct to Eddie and 616 00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:08,000 Speaker 1: saying like upset is probably the wrong word, but a 617 00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:09,680 Speaker 1: surprise on the other side of the bracket or am 618 00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:10,279 Speaker 1: I wrong there? 619 00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:11,360 Speaker 5: Uh? 620 00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:14,000 Speaker 7: Yeah, kind of. It's hard for me to go that 621 00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:17,920 Speaker 7: far though, just because of the uh, the situation of 622 00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:21,520 Speaker 7: Game three, I don't know if you saw, but there 623 00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:26,080 Speaker 7: was a controversial call with or no call less Thomas 624 00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:31,160 Speaker 7: gets a steal, results in the FISA Collier sustending a 625 00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:33,480 Speaker 7: pretty severe ankle sprand so she has to miss game 626 00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:37,520 Speaker 7: number four, and Cheryl Reeve goes absolutely ballistic the Minnesota 627 00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:40,720 Speaker 7: League's head coach after the game and is just going 628 00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:44,800 Speaker 7: straight after the officiating and just the management or whatever. Yes, 629 00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:47,600 Speaker 7: and so she was suspended the game, and the game 630 00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:50,120 Speaker 7: was at home. But I'd probably consider that for sure 631 00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:52,960 Speaker 7: still an upset just because of the fact of how 632 00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:55,120 Speaker 7: dominant Minnesota was. I was gonna entire season. 633 00:36:55,280 --> 00:37:00,359 Speaker 1: I mean, Minnesota was, yes, to your point, all season, right, boy, imagine. 634 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:03,200 Speaker 7: If the Fever pull that off, Jake, You've got Phoenix 635 00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:07,440 Speaker 7: versus it Indiana and the finals to Wanta Bonnor Lissa Thomas. 636 00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:12,040 Speaker 7: Le'd be juicy one the Duana Bonner sweepsteaks right. 637 00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:12,960 Speaker 1: Yeah. 638 00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:16,279 Speaker 7: Now, I wonder if Bonner would get a ring, no 639 00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:17,680 Speaker 7: matter what the result would be. 640 00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:21,600 Speaker 1: That's also a great question because she played on both teams, right. 641 00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:24,399 Speaker 7: Do you think the Fever would send her one? No, 642 00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:25,239 Speaker 7: I don't think so. 643 00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:28,839 Speaker 1: Of Colts yesterday on the short end against the Rams, 644 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:31,040 Speaker 1: before we hear from Shane Steichen, we're going to bring 645 00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:34,160 Speaker 1: Dave in because he's been waiting patiently like we had 646 00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:36,600 Speaker 1: been asked to do when it comes to Adie Mitchell, Hi, Dave. 647 00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:40,200 Speaker 11: Hey, guys, real quick. I wanted to talk about the Colts, 648 00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:42,320 Speaker 11: But did I just mention one thing about Aarony Smith. 649 00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:46,440 Speaker 11: Of all the plays in the playoff last year, that 650 00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:49,799 Speaker 11: dunk he had and then Donothan Mitchell looking like a 651 00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:52,600 Speaker 11: red solo cup after a frat party on the ground 652 00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:57,120 Speaker 11: ward room was easily was easily my favorite play of 653 00:37:57,280 --> 00:37:59,719 Speaker 11: the entire might be my favorite pacer play of all time. 654 00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:04,320 Speaker 1: I love a Smith. I love him and he's shoes. 655 00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:06,279 Speaker 2: Oh you know, you. 656 00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:09,840 Speaker 11: Know some guys were saying when we traded Malcolm, h Malcolm, 657 00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:12,920 Speaker 11: I can't remember past name was right Brogan and you know, 658 00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:15,200 Speaker 11: like somebody said, what we got a bag of pork chops, 659 00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:19,640 Speaker 11: uh from the Celtics. That was an amazing trade by 660 00:38:19,640 --> 00:38:22,120 Speaker 11: our front office. But that play where he went in 661 00:38:22,160 --> 00:38:25,000 Speaker 11: off the mist, I think that was the second time, uh, 662 00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:26,680 Speaker 11: the second miss on. 663 00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:27,400 Speaker 2: The free throws. 664 00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:29,839 Speaker 11: But when he came in and dunked that thing and 665 00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:31,840 Speaker 11: Donovan Mitchell's rolling on the ground. 666 00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:33,120 Speaker 1: That was my. 667 00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:36,120 Speaker 11: Favorite play maybe piecer history. So anyway, I digress, I 668 00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:38,520 Speaker 11: digress anyway. 669 00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:39,000 Speaker 1: About Ady Mitchell. 670 00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:43,360 Speaker 11: You know, in the NFL, coaches lose with potential, and 671 00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:48,239 Speaker 11: that's what Steikn's looking at is losing. Uh And if 672 00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:50,640 Speaker 11: he loses the lady on the sidelines with no eyes 673 00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:54,359 Speaker 11: that's taking notes every day, he won't be around. In 674 00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:58,040 Speaker 11: my opinion, So I think that the word potential is 675 00:38:58,080 --> 00:39:01,680 Speaker 11: great in high school, pretty good in college, but the 676 00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:04,319 Speaker 11: NFL potential is a really bad thing because you lose 677 00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:07,520 Speaker 11: with the potential. And my second and I don't know 678 00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:11,680 Speaker 11: much about football compared to you guys, but could you 679 00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:14,600 Speaker 11: explain to me about what you thought about the time 680 00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:17,600 Speaker 11: management at the end of the second and fourth quarter, 681 00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:22,360 Speaker 11: because I'm if I'm right, in the second quarter, we 682 00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:24,839 Speaker 11: kept throwing the ball until finally we didn't have enough 683 00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:27,520 Speaker 11: time and gave them the ball back with a considerable 684 00:39:27,520 --> 00:39:29,960 Speaker 11: amount of time. So thank you, thank you for taking 685 00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:31,839 Speaker 11: my call. And I was just curious if you if 686 00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:32,680 Speaker 11: you'd talk about that. 687 00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:35,440 Speaker 1: Okay, now I'll begin with this when it comes to 688 00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:40,000 Speaker 1: time clock management, and there's there are one of the 689 00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:44,120 Speaker 1: things that I think is and you are correct about potential, Dave. 690 00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:47,480 Speaker 1: I appreciate the call. Shane Steichen was a coach that 691 00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:49,880 Speaker 1: when he first came in. I think that our thought 692 00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:53,080 Speaker 1: process was like, there's you know, they were tapping into 693 00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:57,320 Speaker 1: the potential, right, the offensive minded coach, the quarterback minded coach. 694 00:39:58,000 --> 00:40:00,799 Speaker 1: But now he is going to have to grow into 695 00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:02,920 Speaker 1: being the head coach. And I think one of the 696 00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:06,120 Speaker 1: things about being a head coach that is a challenge 697 00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:10,759 Speaker 1: for any young head coach is and I think Shane 698 00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:13,279 Speaker 1: Steichen would tell you early in his tenure this was 699 00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:15,359 Speaker 1: the case, and that is that I always say, you know, 700 00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:18,839 Speaker 1: the arrows are flying so fast and things are going 701 00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:23,720 Speaker 1: past you at such a rate that you know you're 702 00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:27,560 Speaker 1: looking at it and you go back and you say, 703 00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:29,120 Speaker 1: I should have called a time here, I should have 704 00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:32,680 Speaker 1: called but things are happening so fast you don't necessarily 705 00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:37,160 Speaker 1: stop and look at it in a vacuum itself. If 706 00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:39,160 Speaker 1: I'm not mistaken, and I could be wrong in this, 707 00:40:39,320 --> 00:40:42,680 Speaker 1: I believe at the end of the first half, at 708 00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:44,759 Speaker 1: the end of the second quarter, they actually ended with 709 00:40:44,840 --> 00:40:45,600 Speaker 1: the ball, did they not? 710 00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:49,600 Speaker 7: The Colts, So they're starting to drive a little bit, 711 00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:51,640 Speaker 7: they get pass heavy. Next thing, you know, they had 712 00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:53,759 Speaker 7: a penalty, so it's you know, they get backed up 713 00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:56,480 Speaker 7: first in twenty Daniel Jones. This was three minutes left, 714 00:40:56,520 --> 00:41:01,760 Speaker 7: Danil Jones incompletion Jonathan Taylor six yard run on thirty 715 00:41:01,760 --> 00:41:04,960 Speaker 7: and twenty, So they have the clock moving. That's when 716 00:41:05,040 --> 00:41:08,000 Speaker 7: Rico Bartel Sanchez and this was an important sequence, Jake 717 00:41:08,120 --> 00:41:09,640 Speaker 7: Is that's when Sanchez, so they can gave it back 718 00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:12,919 Speaker 7: to two minutes left, right, Yeah, with two fourteen left 719 00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:15,960 Speaker 7: and thirteenth plays ninety six yards in zone touchdown. 720 00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:21,799 Speaker 1: Yeah, so they I would agree with the fact that 721 00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:25,040 Speaker 1: it's questionable that you go with that number of pass 722 00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:26,840 Speaker 1: plays if you want to be nitpicky at the end 723 00:41:26,880 --> 00:41:28,919 Speaker 1: of the second quarter, because it allows that much more 724 00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:33,200 Speaker 1: time when you give it back to the Rams and 725 00:41:33,239 --> 00:41:36,760 Speaker 1: then you know, in the end of the game itself. 726 00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:39,920 Speaker 1: I mean, obviously there it's tough because you have the 727 00:41:39,920 --> 00:41:43,239 Speaker 1: they they get the first down to Mitchell actually, and 728 00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:45,920 Speaker 1: then the pick happens and then the game is over, right, 729 00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:48,560 Speaker 1: But I thought they I wasn't unhappy with the amount 730 00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:49,879 Speaker 1: of time that they could have had to go down 731 00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:52,239 Speaker 1: the field at the end of the game, per se. 732 00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:54,120 Speaker 1: I mean, there were and I'm trying to think of 733 00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:56,560 Speaker 1: the other game that I watched. You see it so 734 00:41:56,719 --> 00:41:59,279 Speaker 1: much in the NFL Now Sunday Night game last night, 735 00:41:59,360 --> 00:42:02,680 Speaker 1: which was a fabulous game obviously, but green Bay completely, 736 00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:07,440 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, miss it. And then you know green 737 00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:09,759 Speaker 1: Bay in the way that they scored, you kind of 738 00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:13,319 Speaker 1: knew that they gave Dallas too much time, right, well, yeah, 739 00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:16,680 Speaker 1: and then the overtime, like there's twenty seconds left on 740 00:42:16,719 --> 00:42:19,480 Speaker 1: the on the second down play and Jordan Left's is 741 00:42:19,520 --> 00:42:22,200 Speaker 1: casually Yeah, it's like trying to get to the end 742 00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:24,080 Speaker 1: zone with what one second left or something. Yeah, man, 743 00:42:24,120 --> 00:42:26,479 Speaker 1: if that ball doesn't hit him square the defenders square 744 00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:28,240 Speaker 1: on the back and just fall right to the ground, 745 00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:33,120 Speaker 1: they gave me over Yeah, you're right, You're right, because, yeah, 746 00:42:33,120 --> 00:42:35,480 Speaker 1: he was too careless at the end there with how 747 00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:37,440 Speaker 1: much time was left on that final play. Yeah, my 748 00:42:37,600 --> 00:42:41,800 Speaker 1: point being, Dave, it is one thing that I think 749 00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:44,719 Speaker 1: more often than not, I think the number one thing 750 00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:47,040 Speaker 1: to be able to look back on and question is 751 00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:50,600 Speaker 1: clock management with teams. And I think that what separates 752 00:42:50,640 --> 00:42:54,560 Speaker 1: probably average coaches or good coaches even from elite coaches 753 00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:59,400 Speaker 1: are those that handle that situation because more often than not, 754 00:43:00,760 --> 00:43:04,000 Speaker 1: it's the easiest thing to second guess, and I think 755 00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:07,160 Speaker 1: that I just think that coaches get caught up in 756 00:43:07,239 --> 00:43:12,160 Speaker 1: the quickness of what's happening, and even the best of 757 00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:15,880 Speaker 1: the best, the arrows are flying too fast for him. 758 00:43:15,920 --> 00:43:17,720 Speaker 1: I know that that's kind of a cop out answer, 759 00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:21,719 Speaker 1: but you know, as for Shane Steichen and what he 760 00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:25,160 Speaker 1: had to say after the game, now, Nick sent me 761 00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:27,720 Speaker 1: a text said, Jake, I'm going to predict it right now. 762 00:43:29,280 --> 00:43:31,200 Speaker 1: Stiken's simply going to say they got to clean some 763 00:43:31,239 --> 00:43:32,960 Speaker 1: stuff up. Let's hear if that's what he says. 764 00:43:33,080 --> 00:43:35,640 Speaker 8: Penalties. It really comes down to fundamental and technique and 765 00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:38,120 Speaker 8: the penalties, and it's really it's been in the red zone, 766 00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:40,279 Speaker 8: you know the last couple weeks. We got to clean 767 00:43:40,280 --> 00:43:42,440 Speaker 8: that up because that's huge. I mean, there was probably 768 00:43:42,480 --> 00:43:44,480 Speaker 8: a couple where we kind of had score thirty four, 769 00:43:44,640 --> 00:43:46,960 Speaker 8: you know, with touchdowns. I gotta go back and look 770 00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:48,880 Speaker 8: at Warren's play there where he caught it down to 771 00:43:48,920 --> 00:43:51,120 Speaker 8: the three. Look at that one and obviously the big 772 00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:53,440 Speaker 8: run JT. You know, to take the lead there. So 773 00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:54,880 Speaker 8: I gotta get those cleaned up. 774 00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:56,399 Speaker 3: Eddie. 775 00:43:56,440 --> 00:44:07,000 Speaker 12: What do you know, not once but twice, right, Hell yeah, 776 00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:09,600 Speaker 12: they clean it up it's a clean up Monday, right, 777 00:44:09,880 --> 00:44:11,719 Speaker 12: been a while since we've had to clean things up, 778 00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:13,520 Speaker 12: but they got to clean some things up. 779 00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:17,000 Speaker 1: You know, when I think clean, I think Mike Chapel, 780 00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:23,320 Speaker 1: we're going to clean it up. Chap joins us next Monday, 781 00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:25,760 Speaker 1: one o'clock. You know what that means. Mike Chapel CBS 782 00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:28,840 Speaker 1: four and wxin Fox fifty nine to break down what 783 00:44:28,920 --> 00:44:33,759 Speaker 1: happened with the Colts. And again I'll summarize what I 784 00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:37,680 Speaker 1: said earlier and then we'll let chap kind of opine 785 00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:41,360 Speaker 1: from there. I know it was a disappointing game yesterday 786 00:44:41,400 --> 00:44:43,400 Speaker 1: the Colts. Now though, three and one. You take the 787 00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:45,880 Speaker 1: good with that, because if I would have told anybody 788 00:44:45,960 --> 00:44:48,480 Speaker 1: back in early August the Colts are going to be 789 00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:50,400 Speaker 1: three and one through the first four games, all of 790 00:44:50,440 --> 00:44:52,919 Speaker 1: you would have taken that. And you know, eight days 791 00:44:52,960 --> 00:44:56,759 Speaker 1: a week to quote the Beatles and Adie Mitchell yesterday 792 00:44:57,120 --> 00:45:00,000 Speaker 1: was Yes, he is the target that we're going to 793 00:45:00,120 --> 00:45:01,880 Speaker 1: talked the most about. But there were a lot of 794 00:45:01,920 --> 00:45:04,640 Speaker 1: other things that did them in. You know, eleven penalties 795 00:45:04,680 --> 00:45:07,719 Speaker 1: did him in. The ten men on the field did 796 00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:13,200 Speaker 1: him in. The depleted secondary did them in. And it's 797 00:45:13,239 --> 00:45:15,439 Speaker 1: easy to say that that all falls on the fault 798 00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:18,120 Speaker 1: of Ady Mitchell, but at some point it becomes the 799 00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:21,600 Speaker 1: fault of those that continue to tell us to be 800 00:45:21,680 --> 00:45:24,080 Speaker 1: patient with him when we knew that immaturity and lack 801 00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:27,120 Speaker 1: of focus were the reasons that he was the eleventh 802 00:45:27,160 --> 00:45:29,839 Speaker 1: receiver taken in the year that he was selected, and 803 00:45:29,920 --> 00:45:31,799 Speaker 1: that's the reason why we've had to wait and wait 804 00:45:31,840 --> 00:45:35,640 Speaker 1: and wait. Was just that maturity issue. Now I'm not 805 00:45:35,640 --> 00:45:37,960 Speaker 1: saying he's a bad guy, but as a player, still 806 00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:40,120 Speaker 1: an immature guy. But we'll see how he bounces back 807 00:45:40,120 --> 00:45:42,520 Speaker 1: from it. Mike Chapel joining us now on the program. 808 00:45:42,880 --> 00:45:46,279 Speaker 1: A chap Your overall I guess thoughts are observations from 809 00:45:46,360 --> 00:45:50,600 Speaker 1: yesterday or a storyline perhaps that was overshadowed by Ady Mitchell. 810 00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:57,839 Speaker 2: Well, one quick takeaway is I'm really kind of encouraged 811 00:45:58,680 --> 00:46:01,239 Speaker 2: because I think there was some question about whether these 812 00:46:01,239 --> 00:46:05,240 Speaker 2: guys were legit. I really kind of think that, Well, 813 00:46:05,280 --> 00:46:08,120 Speaker 2: you know, Denver gave you the game, and you played 814 00:46:08,120 --> 00:46:10,680 Speaker 2: a crappy Miami team and Tennessee's the worst team in 815 00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:13,839 Speaker 2: the league. They may not win a game. The Rams 816 00:46:13,840 --> 00:46:18,319 Speaker 2: are good, the Rams are very good, right, and you 817 00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:20,120 Speaker 2: just should have won the game, should have, would have, 818 00:46:20,160 --> 00:46:23,520 Speaker 2: could it? All that kind of stuff. So I'm encouraged 819 00:46:23,600 --> 00:46:25,920 Speaker 2: by the fact that I think these guys are legit. 820 00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:30,759 Speaker 2: I really do, and cho own lorder liveit. I thought 821 00:46:30,800 --> 00:46:33,439 Speaker 2: these guys could start six and two, I really did, 822 00:46:33,960 --> 00:46:37,319 Speaker 2: if they got confident quarterback play, and they've gotten more 823 00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:41,239 Speaker 2: than that. So I'm not totally shocked. Having said that, 824 00:46:41,640 --> 00:46:45,640 Speaker 2: My goodness, that's the game was there for you, and 825 00:46:46,640 --> 00:46:49,560 Speaker 2: there were probably I don't know five or six things 826 00:46:49,560 --> 00:46:57,000 Speaker 2: that went wrong. There's no downplaying Mitchell's screw ups. It's 827 00:46:57,040 --> 00:47:03,120 Speaker 2: fourteen points. It's fourteen points, and uh, I don't know 828 00:47:03,160 --> 00:47:07,080 Speaker 2: how to explain. It's funny. Last year in December, I 829 00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:10,640 Speaker 2: think it was we're talking with Jonathan Taylor in Denver, 830 00:47:10,719 --> 00:47:13,560 Speaker 2: maybe November. I came when it was December, I think, 831 00:47:14,040 --> 00:47:16,319 Speaker 2: and and I'm thinking, you know, I've seen I've been 832 00:47:16,320 --> 00:47:19,680 Speaker 2: around a long time, and I haven't seen that in forever, 833 00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:22,759 Speaker 2: and now yesterday thinking, I mean, I haven't seen that 834 00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:27,640 Speaker 2: since I don't know December. So you just you just 835 00:47:27,840 --> 00:47:32,200 Speaker 2: can't do that. And Jonathan Taylor wasn't celebrating. He just 836 00:47:33,080 --> 00:47:37,040 Speaker 2: dropped the football ad Mitchell I think was shoe Bolten 837 00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:39,279 Speaker 2: was gonna put the ball out with his right hand 838 00:47:39,320 --> 00:47:42,239 Speaker 2: and all that. Yeah, it's one of those like act 839 00:47:42,320 --> 00:47:44,840 Speaker 2: like you've been there before. Well in the NFL, he 840 00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:49,280 Speaker 2: hasn't been so uh. And then the holy on Taylor. 841 00:47:49,320 --> 00:47:51,520 Speaker 2: We had like the third or fourth third straight game 842 00:47:51,520 --> 00:47:56,839 Speaker 2: with Taylor just doing something ridiculously brilliant and it gets 843 00:47:56,920 --> 00:48:01,160 Speaker 2: called back because Mitchell sort of have tackled the guy 844 00:48:01,239 --> 00:48:06,280 Speaker 2: on the perimeter. So that's fourteen points. And Taylor's touchdown 845 00:48:06,480 --> 00:48:09,160 Speaker 2: was with like two minutes to play, and yeah, the 846 00:48:09,239 --> 00:48:12,120 Speaker 2: Rams might have tied up. I don't know so. But 847 00:48:12,200 --> 00:48:15,239 Speaker 2: then like you, like you said, somebody tell me why 848 00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:20,560 Speaker 2: you've got Xavier Howard on Ontua. I the object is 849 00:48:20,560 --> 00:48:23,759 Speaker 2: to take away the other team's best player, the other 850 00:48:23,800 --> 00:48:27,879 Speaker 2: team's best players Nakua, and you put Xavier Howard on him, 851 00:48:28,000 --> 00:48:31,200 Speaker 2: and he hasn't played well since he's been here. 852 00:48:32,040 --> 00:48:32,239 Speaker 3: You know. 853 00:48:32,400 --> 00:48:37,840 Speaker 2: I guess if they put Mooney Ward on on on Nakua, 854 00:48:37,960 --> 00:48:42,400 Speaker 2: then Devontae Adams goes off. But I would risk that, 855 00:48:42,640 --> 00:48:44,520 Speaker 2: so I and then ten minutes on the field, what 856 00:48:44,560 --> 00:48:48,279 Speaker 2: are you doing? What's that about? So it was just 857 00:48:49,120 --> 00:48:55,840 Speaker 2: incredible mistakes and you're still right there I'm curious to 858 00:48:55,960 --> 00:49:01,080 Speaker 2: how they they react with two things with a D. 859 00:49:01,280 --> 00:49:04,920 Speaker 2: Mitchell is you know, hopefully they get pierced back this 860 00:49:04,960 --> 00:49:08,360 Speaker 2: week and that will diminish more of eight sides. But 861 00:49:08,400 --> 00:49:11,280 Speaker 2: you're right, they say, bear with us. This kid's gonna 862 00:49:11,280 --> 00:49:12,840 Speaker 2: be a great play. He's great talent. 863 00:49:13,040 --> 00:49:16,239 Speaker 1: The catch was incredible, Jap it looked there has never 864 00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:21,000 Speaker 1: let me tell you something you remember Bo Jackson? Right, sure, 865 00:49:22,200 --> 00:49:26,520 Speaker 1: I've always felt like Bo Jackson. And probably the most 866 00:49:26,520 --> 00:49:28,919 Speaker 1: famous game that Bo Jackson played in was that Monday 867 00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:31,600 Speaker 1: night game against the Raid against the Seahawks in Seattle 868 00:49:31,640 --> 00:49:33,640 Speaker 1: when he was with the Raiders and he ran over 869 00:49:33,680 --> 00:49:37,080 Speaker 1: the bas But the other play in that game is 870 00:49:37,120 --> 00:49:39,160 Speaker 1: the one where he turns the corner and he takes 871 00:49:39,160 --> 00:49:41,640 Speaker 1: off down the sideline and he's running so fast he 872 00:49:41,680 --> 00:49:42,840 Speaker 1: goes right into the tunnel. 873 00:49:42,960 --> 00:49:43,200 Speaker 3: Right. 874 00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:48,000 Speaker 1: I've always said that that perfectly encapsulated him, because just 875 00:49:48,040 --> 00:49:50,680 Speaker 1: when you realized what you had seen before your very eyes, 876 00:49:50,800 --> 00:49:53,759 Speaker 1: he disappeared. And it was the perfect synopsis of a 877 00:49:53,760 --> 00:49:56,480 Speaker 1: player's career in one play. That might have been the 878 00:49:56,480 --> 00:49:59,879 Speaker 1: perfect synopsis of ad Mitchell because we were we saw 879 00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:02,759 Speaker 1: why we've been told to be so patient. And then 880 00:50:02,760 --> 00:50:05,560 Speaker 1: we saw why we've had to be patient because he 881 00:50:05,560 --> 00:50:08,600 Speaker 1: made a knucklehead play all in one fell swoop right. 882 00:50:08,680 --> 00:50:11,319 Speaker 1: I mean, it was the perfect synopsis. The question for 883 00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:15,240 Speaker 1: me becomes, how does he respond? How does he respond? 884 00:50:15,280 --> 00:50:18,560 Speaker 1: And do we know do we have enough body of 885 00:50:18,600 --> 00:50:21,799 Speaker 1: work to this point to say from a mental standpoint 886 00:50:21,840 --> 00:50:23,760 Speaker 1: that that might be the play that defines him? 887 00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:27,680 Speaker 2: No, we don't. We know we've don't. We don't, And 888 00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:31,919 Speaker 2: I understand your question. I'm more curious how the team 889 00:50:31,960 --> 00:50:39,799 Speaker 2: responds to it. You know, roster spots are so you know, premium. 890 00:50:40,120 --> 00:50:42,279 Speaker 2: And I'm not saying you yet the guy. I'm not 891 00:50:42,400 --> 00:50:47,160 Speaker 2: saying that at all, but it's this is a game 892 00:50:47,200 --> 00:50:49,120 Speaker 2: of trust and you have to and they said all 893 00:50:49,120 --> 00:50:51,280 Speaker 2: the right things after the game, we have bath and trust, 894 00:50:51,280 --> 00:50:54,000 Speaker 2: and yet he had it well based on what, I mean, 895 00:50:54,200 --> 00:50:58,680 Speaker 2: you know, based on what And I'm going to try 896 00:50:58,680 --> 00:51:02,480 Speaker 2: not to pile on him too much, but but this 897 00:51:02,640 --> 00:51:06,799 Speaker 2: is big boy football. It's it's your profession and they 898 00:51:06,840 --> 00:51:10,440 Speaker 2: preach accountability. That that's what the Chames sticker says, Well, 899 00:51:10,440 --> 00:51:14,040 Speaker 2: it starts with me starting. Okay, but but you're not 900 00:51:14,080 --> 00:51:16,040 Speaker 2: out there dropping the ball at the one yard line. 901 00:51:16,040 --> 00:51:20,080 Speaker 2: You're not out there getting roasted every play by Nikua. 902 00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:24,560 Speaker 2: So I I the accountability would would be to find 903 00:51:24,560 --> 00:51:28,080 Speaker 2: somebody other than Xavian Howard to play at corner. I 904 00:51:28,080 --> 00:51:30,840 Speaker 2: don't think they get Kenny Moore back this week, and 905 00:51:31,560 --> 00:51:35,279 Speaker 2: then even less, see Alan Pierce misses another game. He's 906 00:51:35,320 --> 00:51:38,400 Speaker 2: never missed two games of the concussion. But then you 907 00:51:38,400 --> 00:51:42,440 Speaker 2: see more of Ashton Dulan. You just do so I 908 00:51:42,440 --> 00:51:45,640 Speaker 2: I don't know. I'm I'm more curious how the team 909 00:51:45,719 --> 00:51:50,080 Speaker 2: responds than I am. I don't know that I expected 910 00:51:50,080 --> 00:51:54,080 Speaker 2: it from Xavian Howard, how he responds. He's just he's 911 00:51:54,120 --> 00:51:55,120 Speaker 2: not playing well. 912 00:51:55,640 --> 00:51:58,239 Speaker 1: You know, Chap in terms of the way the team 913 00:51:58,280 --> 00:52:01,960 Speaker 1: responded to Ady Mitchell yesterday, And I'll start with that response. 914 00:52:03,520 --> 00:52:05,640 Speaker 1: I get it, and they said the right things, and 915 00:52:05,640 --> 00:52:07,920 Speaker 1: we'll play you know, audio for everybody coming up here 916 00:52:07,960 --> 00:52:10,040 Speaker 1: with Daniel Jones and Sire Franklin what they had to say. 917 00:52:10,080 --> 00:52:13,160 Speaker 1: But is there a fine line in the NFL between 918 00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:15,719 Speaker 1: having a guy's back and coddling a guy? 919 00:52:17,920 --> 00:52:18,200 Speaker 8: Oh? 920 00:52:18,239 --> 00:52:22,160 Speaker 2: We see, yeah, yeah, we've seen that a quarterback here 921 00:52:22,440 --> 00:52:26,960 Speaker 2: the last couple of years. Yeah, there is. Don't talk 922 00:52:27,000 --> 00:52:32,640 Speaker 2: to accountability and then you know, do the old definition 923 00:52:32,719 --> 00:52:37,000 Speaker 2: of insanity. So yeah, I think again this is a 924 00:52:37,080 --> 00:52:40,880 Speaker 2: chance for us to see what their accountability level is. Again, 925 00:52:40,920 --> 00:52:44,480 Speaker 2: I want to say it two spots, because Xavid Howard 926 00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:47,759 Speaker 2: wasn't good yesterday. He just wasn't wasn't good the week 927 00:52:47,800 --> 00:52:51,319 Speaker 2: before the week before that. So so yeah, that's a 928 00:52:51,360 --> 00:52:57,360 Speaker 2: really good point. And your tolerance level for coddling goes 929 00:52:57,480 --> 00:53:03,279 Speaker 2: up with a player's resume and his talent, And right 930 00:53:03,320 --> 00:53:07,680 Speaker 2: now A d Mitchell doesn't have much in the bank 931 00:53:08,800 --> 00:53:11,759 Speaker 2: to keep saying well, you know, patient, No, you only 932 00:53:11,800 --> 00:53:15,920 Speaker 2: play seventeen games. It's a long season. It is. You 933 00:53:15,920 --> 00:53:20,720 Speaker 2: play seventeen games, and you know, things even out against 934 00:53:20,719 --> 00:53:23,640 Speaker 2: should have lost to Denver, you should have won yesterday, 935 00:53:23,680 --> 00:53:27,120 Speaker 2: so they sort of even out. But I would hate 936 00:53:27,120 --> 00:53:31,600 Speaker 2: for these guys in January, the max a boy like 937 00:53:31,600 --> 00:53:33,760 Speaker 2: like last year in Denver. They losing game in Denver 938 00:53:34,200 --> 00:53:35,080 Speaker 2: and it cost him. 939 00:53:35,400 --> 00:53:36,000 Speaker 3: It cost him. 940 00:53:37,200 --> 00:53:39,799 Speaker 2: So I'm I want to see how they deal with it. 941 00:53:39,800 --> 00:53:41,760 Speaker 2: I want to see how this team bounces back against 942 00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:45,200 Speaker 2: the Raiders who showed you what they can be yesterday. 943 00:53:46,040 --> 00:53:48,960 Speaker 2: But this is still a good team. But you just 944 00:53:49,040 --> 00:53:52,080 Speaker 2: can't go on and say, well, these guys will come 945 00:53:52,120 --> 00:53:54,560 Speaker 2: out of this on their own, because that's you can't 946 00:53:54,600 --> 00:53:55,600 Speaker 2: you can't bank on that. 947 00:53:55,840 --> 00:53:58,480 Speaker 1: Are we burying the lead though, in the fact that 948 00:53:58,760 --> 00:54:01,560 Speaker 1: we're so focused on the eighty Mitchell play. Mike Chapler 949 00:54:01,640 --> 00:54:04,319 Speaker 1: guests from CBS four and WXA and Fox fifty nine. 950 00:54:04,800 --> 00:54:07,520 Speaker 1: The Dean of Coult writers, we were so focused on 951 00:54:07,560 --> 00:54:10,239 Speaker 1: the Mitchell mistakes that and I agree with you Chap 952 00:54:10,280 --> 00:54:13,880 Speaker 1: fundamentally that there were things that were encouraging about that game, 953 00:54:14,480 --> 00:54:18,400 Speaker 1: but there were also just such incredible mental errors, like 954 00:54:18,520 --> 00:54:22,200 Speaker 1: the eleven penalties and like having only ten men on 955 00:54:22,239 --> 00:54:23,959 Speaker 1: the field and the most critical play of the game. 956 00:54:24,280 --> 00:54:25,000 Speaker 1: How does that happen? 957 00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:28,799 Speaker 2: No question, I don't know. I can't bind them sort 958 00:54:28,840 --> 00:54:30,640 Speaker 2: of seet He said, we had a feeling before the 959 00:54:30,680 --> 00:54:32,960 Speaker 2: play that things weren't right, and then he said his 960 00:54:33,520 --> 00:54:36,200 Speaker 2: players and his coaches. He pointed into the coaches as well, 961 00:54:36,600 --> 00:54:39,399 Speaker 2: they got coach, they get they got more coaches than 962 00:54:39,480 --> 00:54:43,839 Speaker 2: you've got fans, Jake, I mean, they got coaches everywhere, 963 00:54:44,360 --> 00:54:48,360 Speaker 2: and somebody is responsible for getting the right guys out there. 964 00:54:49,560 --> 00:54:51,759 Speaker 1: Did you say that I have fans? Is that what 965 00:54:51,800 --> 00:54:57,120 Speaker 1: you said, that I have fans? I said, because that 966 00:54:57,160 --> 00:55:03,080 Speaker 1: would be Listen, your grandson's basketball team at the Beach Grove. 967 00:55:03,160 --> 00:55:05,640 Speaker 1: Why has more coaches than I have fans? 968 00:55:05,840 --> 00:55:07,480 Speaker 2: Right, well, that would be that, that would be the 969 00:55:07,520 --> 00:55:13,640 Speaker 2: Mount Vernon Wide. But now but they've got people that 970 00:55:13,719 --> 00:55:16,080 Speaker 2: they got people to do that. I mean to make 971 00:55:16,160 --> 00:55:18,759 Speaker 2: sure you've got the right the right people, the right 972 00:55:18,840 --> 00:55:21,480 Speaker 2: a number of people from crying out louts. Maybe it 973 00:55:21,480 --> 00:55:26,080 Speaker 2: wouldn't have mattered because Blackman fell down and you leave 974 00:55:26,239 --> 00:55:30,120 Speaker 2: that well wide open and running through. Maybe that the 975 00:55:30,160 --> 00:55:32,560 Speaker 2: extra player would have been somewhere else it would have mattered. 976 00:55:32,760 --> 00:55:35,160 Speaker 2: But that doesn't matter. You got to have you know, 977 00:55:35,400 --> 00:55:38,399 Speaker 2: like like mine have said ten verses eleven, you're gonna lose. 978 00:55:38,800 --> 00:55:42,440 Speaker 2: You're gonna lose, and you just know that when a 979 00:55:42,520 --> 00:55:45,399 Speaker 2: guy's open like that, Matthew Stafford is gonna find him. 980 00:55:45,480 --> 00:55:49,040 Speaker 2: He he just hit him astride. So that's how I 981 00:55:49,040 --> 00:55:52,520 Speaker 2: say that. There were so many mistakes from a team 982 00:55:52,600 --> 00:55:56,200 Speaker 2: that for the first three games didn't do much wrong, 983 00:55:56,880 --> 00:56:00,000 Speaker 2: no turnovers, and you know they have to love penalty 984 00:56:00,160 --> 00:56:03,280 Speaker 2: against Denver. I think it was but by and large 985 00:56:03,280 --> 00:56:06,680 Speaker 2: they played pretty clean and yesterday was in bud Cletan. 986 00:56:06,680 --> 00:56:11,919 Speaker 2: There was pressure on Jones. The second interception I don't 987 00:56:11,960 --> 00:56:14,399 Speaker 2: throw I guess you had some time outs and all that, 988 00:56:15,520 --> 00:56:18,120 Speaker 2: but I thought he he, he would be down my 989 00:56:18,239 --> 00:56:22,600 Speaker 2: list of worries. Jonathan Taylor played well, Josh Stown's made 990 00:56:22,680 --> 00:56:25,879 Speaker 2: some key plays, past protection was not very good. I thought, 991 00:56:26,080 --> 00:56:29,479 Speaker 2: even with two sacks Uh and dumb Donny, you still 992 00:56:29,719 --> 00:56:32,440 Speaker 2: could have should have won the game if if Mitchell 993 00:56:32,560 --> 00:56:35,440 Speaker 2: doesn't mugged the guy on the on the end, and 994 00:56:36,040 --> 00:56:37,680 Speaker 2: Jonathan Taylor gives you another highlight. 995 00:56:38,760 --> 00:56:42,759 Speaker 1: You know the thing, Chap, that's encouraging because you know, 996 00:56:43,520 --> 00:56:45,480 Speaker 1: I know they lost, and I know people want to, 997 00:56:46,719 --> 00:56:49,200 Speaker 1: you know, fret and complain, and I get it after 998 00:56:49,239 --> 00:56:52,719 Speaker 1: a loss. But the reality is this, now that we've 999 00:56:52,760 --> 00:56:55,640 Speaker 1: seen four games, and you're right, Tennessee is terrible. I 1000 00:56:55,640 --> 00:57:00,200 Speaker 1: mean they're terrible, right, Tennessee and Carolina they're they're awful, right, 1001 00:57:00,760 --> 00:57:04,400 Speaker 1: two worst teams in the league. But now that we've 1002 00:57:04,440 --> 00:57:07,799 Speaker 1: seen them go into LA and we're talking about how 1003 00:57:07,840 --> 00:57:10,840 Speaker 1: the Colts cost themselves, you know, it's like the Rams 1004 00:57:10,840 --> 00:57:13,080 Speaker 1: didn't beat the Colts. The Colts beat the Colts. And 1005 00:57:13,160 --> 00:57:14,880 Speaker 1: so when you look at that, you have to be 1006 00:57:14,960 --> 00:57:18,280 Speaker 1: encouraged because now you start looking at the schedule wondering 1007 00:57:18,600 --> 00:57:20,960 Speaker 1: where they're going to lose another game. I mean, the 1008 00:57:21,840 --> 00:57:23,720 Speaker 1: going to LA and taking on the Chargers is going 1009 00:57:23,800 --> 00:57:26,720 Speaker 1: to be a big challenge, but coming back and getting 1010 00:57:26,720 --> 00:57:28,880 Speaker 1: the Raiders and Cardinals at home, I mean, they've got 1011 00:57:28,880 --> 00:57:30,919 Speaker 1: a chance, to your point, to be five and one, 1012 00:57:31,040 --> 00:57:34,600 Speaker 1: and then you know, maybe they go five and two. 1013 00:57:35,680 --> 00:57:38,880 Speaker 1: But outside of that, the schedule is pretty favorable for them. 1014 00:57:38,960 --> 00:57:44,480 Speaker 1: I mean, this legitimately looks like the in fact, the 1015 00:57:44,520 --> 00:57:47,280 Speaker 1: groundwork is there for them to be a not just 1016 00:57:47,360 --> 00:57:50,080 Speaker 1: a playoff team, but a contending playoff team. Am I beat? 1017 00:57:50,200 --> 00:57:51,479 Speaker 1: Am I too bullish? Too early? 1018 00:57:52,520 --> 00:57:52,720 Speaker 3: No? 1019 00:57:52,760 --> 00:57:56,160 Speaker 2: That because again I kind of again I saw that 1020 00:57:56,200 --> 00:57:59,840 Speaker 2: as a possibility just because so much is on the quarterback. 1021 00:58:00,160 --> 00:58:00,560 Speaker 3: It just is. 1022 00:58:01,400 --> 00:58:06,680 Speaker 2: And they've gotten very, very good play from the quarterback. 1023 00:58:07,960 --> 00:58:10,600 Speaker 2: But has they said that then you can't do stupid 1024 00:58:10,640 --> 00:58:13,040 Speaker 2: things around him? And again he was he was far 1025 00:58:13,080 --> 00:58:16,880 Speaker 2: from perfect yesterday. But again that's why I say, part 1026 00:58:16,920 --> 00:58:20,400 Speaker 2: of me is encouraged by how they played, just because 1027 00:58:20,400 --> 00:58:22,800 Speaker 2: they went out there and they had a chance to 1028 00:58:22,840 --> 00:58:26,439 Speaker 2: win the game they did. In the past, I think 1029 00:58:26,440 --> 00:58:29,760 Speaker 2: the Colt's team might go out there against a quality 1030 00:58:29,880 --> 00:58:32,720 Speaker 2: Rams team or whatever and just give boat race and 1031 00:58:32,760 --> 00:58:36,560 Speaker 2: that wasn't the case. So again I'm encouraged by that, 1032 00:58:36,600 --> 00:58:39,240 Speaker 2: But then you come back to the bottom line, and 1033 00:58:39,760 --> 00:58:45,240 Speaker 2: you can't do ten things wrong and beat a good team. 1034 00:58:45,360 --> 00:58:48,520 Speaker 2: Can't do it. Kevin Bowden had a good point. Was 1035 00:58:48,560 --> 00:58:51,440 Speaker 2: it the end of the first half where the Sanchez 1036 00:58:51,600 --> 00:58:53,560 Speaker 2: pins him at the four yard line and the Rams 1037 00:58:53,560 --> 00:58:56,680 Speaker 2: go ninety six yards at the end of the half? Yep, 1038 00:58:56,760 --> 00:59:01,479 Speaker 2: that's you just can't do that. So but they still 1039 00:59:01,520 --> 00:59:07,200 Speaker 2: held them to twenty until the late touchdown. So again, 1040 00:59:07,400 --> 00:59:10,200 Speaker 2: very very a lot of reasons to be encouraged. But 1041 00:59:10,320 --> 00:59:11,640 Speaker 2: if you think you can go out there and do 1042 00:59:11,680 --> 00:59:14,960 Speaker 2: that kind of stuff week after a week, you're delusional. 1043 00:59:15,320 --> 00:59:17,720 Speaker 2: Chapter three turnovers get your beat. 1044 00:59:17,960 --> 00:59:22,400 Speaker 1: The issue at defensive backfield in the defensive backfield, you know, 1045 00:59:22,440 --> 00:59:26,600 Speaker 1: and Xavier and Howard to your point, I'd like, you know, 1046 00:59:26,680 --> 00:59:28,360 Speaker 1: it would be easy to throw the Colts under the 1047 00:59:28,400 --> 00:59:29,960 Speaker 1: bus there and say what in the world are they doing? 1048 00:59:30,000 --> 00:59:32,400 Speaker 1: But it's not necessarily their fault. I mean, if there's 1049 00:59:32,400 --> 00:59:35,360 Speaker 1: something to be to give them a pass, I guess 1050 00:59:35,400 --> 00:59:37,560 Speaker 1: if you will, it's the fact that they're having to 1051 00:59:37,560 --> 00:59:39,920 Speaker 1: play with guys in those positions that weren't even on 1052 00:59:39,960 --> 00:59:43,080 Speaker 1: the roster when training camp began because of attrition. Can 1053 00:59:43,120 --> 00:59:46,560 Speaker 1: you literally limp your way in waiting for Jalen Jones 1054 00:59:46,640 --> 00:59:48,960 Speaker 1: Kenny Moore to come back, or are they in the 1055 00:59:49,000 --> 00:59:51,280 Speaker 1: situation where they're going to have to start scanning the 1056 00:59:51,280 --> 00:59:52,320 Speaker 1: free agent wires again? 1057 00:59:53,600 --> 00:59:57,200 Speaker 2: Well, free agent wires, that's that's where you got Jamian Howard. 1058 00:59:57,800 --> 01:00:00,760 Speaker 1: That's right, But I mean right, no, I I. 1059 01:00:00,720 --> 01:00:05,440 Speaker 2: I if I'm not mistaken, I think Jalen Jones as 1060 01:00:05,600 --> 01:00:09,000 Speaker 2: l's worth come off this week now. Whether he's read 1061 01:00:09,120 --> 01:00:10,040 Speaker 2: or not, I don't know. 1062 01:00:11,360 --> 01:00:13,720 Speaker 7: Again, Kenny says he's not one more week, right, yeah, 1063 01:00:13,760 --> 01:00:16,720 Speaker 7: because that was week one, right, Chap, So you're here 1064 01:00:16,960 --> 01:00:18,080 Speaker 7: have to miss. 1065 01:00:17,840 --> 01:00:21,400 Speaker 2: You're right, You're right, he's got one more. He's got 1066 01:00:21,400 --> 01:00:22,200 Speaker 2: one more week. 1067 01:00:22,720 --> 01:00:22,880 Speaker 6: So. 1068 01:00:25,040 --> 01:00:28,600 Speaker 2: Play Jonathan Edwards some more. I don't know. Uh, most 1069 01:00:28,640 --> 01:00:35,800 Speaker 2: teams aren't going to have Coupah DeVante Adams combination again. 1070 01:00:35,840 --> 01:00:38,600 Speaker 2: I just come back to Bill Belichick was great on 1071 01:00:38,720 --> 01:00:41,960 Speaker 2: taking again. He would take a guy away, Marvin Drian, 1072 01:00:42,240 --> 01:00:45,520 Speaker 2: Riggie somebody and make somebody else beat you. I would 1073 01:00:45,640 --> 01:00:49,560 Speaker 2: rather you make DeVante Adams beat me. And he's a great, 1074 01:00:49,560 --> 01:00:53,520 Speaker 2: great player. Then Nakua had one hundred and seventy yards 1075 01:00:54,160 --> 01:00:58,360 Speaker 2: career high and is his third career high. If you remember, 1076 01:00:58,960 --> 01:01:00,720 Speaker 2: came as a rookie again the coach when he had 1077 01:01:00,720 --> 01:01:03,560 Speaker 2: won sixty three, and he designed that to cover him 1078 01:01:03,560 --> 01:01:08,160 Speaker 2: in overtime. Uh So, I just make somebody else beat you, 1079 01:01:08,240 --> 01:01:11,600 Speaker 2: make somebody the Nico Connins beat you. And I just 1080 01:01:11,800 --> 01:01:14,720 Speaker 2: will talk to Lou and Amo tomorrow, and I just 1081 01:01:14,800 --> 01:01:21,120 Speaker 2: want to understand why you continually put Xavian Howard on 1082 01:01:21,240 --> 01:01:25,520 Speaker 2: their best player. The nine yard touchdown they put, they 1083 01:01:25,560 --> 01:01:27,560 Speaker 2: put Howard on him, and I don't get it. I 1084 01:01:27,680 --> 01:01:31,080 Speaker 2: just don't get it. I realize I'm not a football savant, 1085 01:01:31,160 --> 01:01:35,080 Speaker 2: but I just want somebody else to beat me. And 1086 01:01:35,160 --> 01:01:36,520 Speaker 2: that's not what happened yesterday. 1087 01:01:37,200 --> 01:01:41,040 Speaker 1: Mike Chapel, our guest, chap let's go to this when 1088 01:01:41,080 --> 01:01:48,320 Speaker 1: you look at you know again we've nitpicked the negatives here, right, 1089 01:01:49,280 --> 01:01:51,880 Speaker 1: Let's go with three positives. You talked about Jonathan Taylor, 1090 01:01:51,920 --> 01:01:56,200 Speaker 1: but aside from that, I'll start with Daniel Jones. I 1091 01:01:56,360 --> 01:01:59,520 Speaker 1: thought yesterday, and you tell me if you agree with this. 1092 01:02:00,000 --> 01:02:05,240 Speaker 1: It was very interested to see how he would respond 1093 01:02:05,480 --> 01:02:08,240 Speaker 1: to his first pick, and obviously he threw to yesterday. 1094 01:02:09,400 --> 01:02:12,760 Speaker 1: But we've seen quarterbacks where the wheels can kind of 1095 01:02:12,800 --> 01:02:16,600 Speaker 1: come off especially early in a game, in that situation 1096 01:02:17,280 --> 01:02:20,040 Speaker 1: and in a hostile environment. I thought he was pretty 1097 01:02:20,040 --> 01:02:23,120 Speaker 1: poised and over the course of the game, especially like 1098 01:02:23,160 --> 01:02:26,400 Speaker 1: that Mitchell throw, he put the ball at times where 1099 01:02:26,400 --> 01:02:29,120 Speaker 1: it needed to be. I thought he was impressive yesterday. 1100 01:02:29,120 --> 01:02:30,400 Speaker 1: But am I too kind? 1101 01:02:31,480 --> 01:02:35,000 Speaker 2: No, And again we've kind of had lower standards on 1102 01:02:35,040 --> 01:02:37,240 Speaker 2: what we thought what we think efficient play is. 1103 01:02:37,480 --> 01:02:38,400 Speaker 3: I thought he was fine. 1104 01:02:39,080 --> 01:02:42,960 Speaker 2: I just you know, he anderthrows what was Mitchell on 1105 01:02:43,040 --> 01:02:46,080 Speaker 2: the first one deep for the interception? If he lays 1106 01:02:46,080 --> 01:02:49,280 Speaker 2: it out there, it's probably a long game. I thought 1107 01:02:49,320 --> 01:02:53,240 Speaker 2: he played fine. He played winning football. The interception at 1108 01:02:53,280 --> 01:02:57,560 Speaker 2: the end. He got too greedy too soon, I thought. 1109 01:02:58,480 --> 01:03:01,840 Speaker 2: But made some great plays downs, a couple of great 1110 01:03:01,880 --> 01:03:04,640 Speaker 2: throws to Tyler Warren. That kid, gosh, that kid. 1111 01:03:04,880 --> 01:03:05,120 Speaker 3: Uh. 1112 01:03:05,720 --> 01:03:08,800 Speaker 2: He just they keep finding different ways to use him, 1113 01:03:09,080 --> 01:03:11,960 Speaker 2: which we knew they would, you know, the wildcat and 1114 01:03:12,040 --> 01:03:15,120 Speaker 2: the and then the full back with the touchdown, and 1115 01:03:15,400 --> 01:03:17,720 Speaker 2: they had their own version of the toushbush to get 1116 01:03:17,760 --> 01:03:21,600 Speaker 2: him in. So I thought Jones played fine. Again, if 1117 01:03:21,600 --> 01:03:24,520 Speaker 2: you want to list ten things that went wrong, he's 1118 01:03:24,600 --> 01:03:28,200 Speaker 2: number ten. Which again that's why I say it's encouraging, 1119 01:03:28,760 --> 01:03:30,480 Speaker 2: because I think You're right, A lot of a lot 1120 01:03:30,520 --> 01:03:33,920 Speaker 2: of people are waiting for the wheels to come off 1121 01:03:33,960 --> 01:03:36,440 Speaker 2: and say, oh, that's why it didn't go right, and 1122 01:03:36,480 --> 01:03:39,080 Speaker 2: in the in New York, that's why the Giants got. 1123 01:03:38,960 --> 01:03:41,400 Speaker 3: Rid of him. And we haven't seen that. 1124 01:03:42,400 --> 01:03:45,280 Speaker 2: Uh, And I don't think we're going to see some 1125 01:03:45,400 --> 01:03:51,120 Speaker 2: of the mistakes moving forward. The Bernard Ryman had a 1126 01:03:51,160 --> 01:03:55,080 Speaker 2: bad game, holding penalties in the red zone and and 1127 01:03:55,120 --> 01:03:57,640 Speaker 2: all that were. I still not sure what Tyler Warren 1128 01:03:57,680 --> 01:04:00,520 Speaker 2: did on his past interference. I need to see again. 1129 01:04:01,240 --> 01:04:03,280 Speaker 2: We're not gonna see a lot of that moving forward. 1130 01:04:03,280 --> 01:04:06,640 Speaker 2: We're not gonna see living penalties moving forward. So I thought, 1131 01:04:07,400 --> 01:04:09,360 Speaker 2: if I thought it's the wheels, we're gonna come off, yes, 1132 01:04:09,440 --> 01:04:12,800 Speaker 2: it was a great day for that to happen with Jones, 1133 01:04:12,840 --> 01:04:13,960 Speaker 2: and it did not happen. 1134 01:04:14,200 --> 01:04:17,160 Speaker 1: You know what's funny, Chap. I mean, you know you've 1135 01:04:17,200 --> 01:04:21,320 Speaker 1: been covering the NFL since it came to Indianapolis. It 1136 01:04:21,400 --> 01:04:24,040 Speaker 1: seems to me like offensive line, and you tell me 1137 01:04:24,120 --> 01:04:27,520 Speaker 1: if I'm wrong here, but it seems to me like, 1138 01:04:28,920 --> 01:04:34,280 Speaker 1: in particular, left tackle is the position where even the 1139 01:04:34,440 --> 01:04:37,880 Speaker 1: very best to play the position just have an occasional 1140 01:04:37,960 --> 01:04:40,600 Speaker 1: off day, Like it just is one of those. I 1141 01:04:40,680 --> 01:04:43,480 Speaker 1: think it's a timing position, and you know, you have 1142 01:04:44,000 --> 01:04:46,840 Speaker 1: quarterbacks gonna have an off day, sure, but it seems 1143 01:04:46,960 --> 01:04:51,920 Speaker 1: like the very best of tackles or guards that we 1144 01:04:52,040 --> 01:04:55,200 Speaker 1: have seen come through this town, even the very best 1145 01:04:55,200 --> 01:04:59,440 Speaker 1: of them, have games where just like psychologically, they're just 1146 01:04:59,680 --> 01:05:02,600 Speaker 1: off and their timing is just off for the day, 1147 01:05:02,760 --> 01:05:05,200 Speaker 1: and then the next week they kind of get back 1148 01:05:05,240 --> 01:05:07,480 Speaker 1: on the horse again. That seemed to be the case 1149 01:05:07,560 --> 01:05:08,880 Speaker 1: yesterday with Ryman, did it not? 1150 01:05:10,280 --> 01:05:13,360 Speaker 2: I hope so? And again I wish I was to 1151 01:05:13,400 --> 01:05:16,000 Speaker 2: look at my notes. I thought he missed part of 1152 01:05:16,000 --> 01:05:18,960 Speaker 2: the day of practice last week with an illness, and 1153 01:05:19,040 --> 01:05:21,920 Speaker 2: now whether he's been fighting something, I don't know. The 1154 01:05:22,000 --> 01:05:25,040 Speaker 2: Rams have a really good front seven. They really do 1155 01:05:25,400 --> 01:05:28,600 Speaker 2: got There was one play that Jared Verse just ran 1156 01:05:28,680 --> 01:05:33,920 Speaker 2: over the borderline. Holy smokes. But you know, if you're 1157 01:05:33,960 --> 01:05:37,520 Speaker 2: not on top of your game, yell exposure, they simply 1158 01:05:37,560 --> 01:05:40,000 Speaker 2: will because they've got guys that everybody's got guys that 1159 01:05:40,080 --> 01:05:43,960 Speaker 2: are that good. And it's sort of the unfair nature. 1160 01:05:44,680 --> 01:05:48,560 Speaker 2: But the reality of the business is if a left 1161 01:05:48,600 --> 01:05:51,280 Speaker 2: tackle has three bad plays, he has a bad game, 1162 01:05:51,680 --> 01:05:55,240 Speaker 2: right And if the right end had three good plays 1163 01:05:55,320 --> 01:05:59,560 Speaker 2: and forty seven terrible plays. He's an all pro, so 1164 01:05:59,640 --> 01:06:01,840 Speaker 2: it a lie even just can't afford to have bad plays. 1165 01:06:03,360 --> 01:06:06,480 Speaker 2: I think Bernio bounce back, he's he's he's been okay, 1166 01:06:06,680 --> 01:06:10,600 Speaker 2: not as good as he's been, but he's He's not high. 1167 01:06:10,440 --> 01:06:11,439 Speaker 3: On my list of worries either. 1168 01:06:11,960 --> 01:06:15,160 Speaker 1: You know, it's interesting when Mike Hilton had to play, 1169 01:06:16,720 --> 01:06:18,880 Speaker 1: you know, when when the Rams had the fumble and 1170 01:06:19,280 --> 01:06:21,720 Speaker 1: immediately they're like, Mike Hilton comes flashing in and makes 1171 01:06:21,760 --> 01:06:23,280 Speaker 1: a play, and I'm like, you know, he kind of 1172 01:06:23,320 --> 01:06:24,920 Speaker 1: got credit for it, and he was in the right 1173 01:06:25,000 --> 01:06:28,560 Speaker 1: place to cause a disruption, but it almost in the 1174 01:06:28,640 --> 01:06:32,600 Speaker 1: replay You're like, no, I think actually there was he's 1175 01:06:32,680 --> 01:06:35,920 Speaker 1: spinning out of the play and the fumble happens, and 1176 01:06:36,080 --> 01:06:38,000 Speaker 1: so Hilton kind of got credit there, but you got 1177 01:06:38,080 --> 01:06:39,960 Speaker 1: to be in position. I guess he was. You know, 1178 01:06:40,080 --> 01:06:42,439 Speaker 1: he was in the right spot. But my point being, 1179 01:06:43,240 --> 01:06:46,240 Speaker 1: there are some guys that you can put into situation 1180 01:06:47,800 --> 01:06:50,680 Speaker 1: like Hilton where you just pick him up and you 1181 01:06:50,720 --> 01:06:52,320 Speaker 1: put him in there and he's familiar with the defense 1182 01:06:52,360 --> 01:06:54,840 Speaker 1: and he's able to at least be in position, and 1183 01:06:54,920 --> 01:06:57,480 Speaker 1: then others like Howard that it just seems like the 1184 01:06:57,600 --> 01:06:59,520 Speaker 1: expiration date has come well. 1185 01:06:59,560 --> 01:07:03,160 Speaker 2: And again he didn't play last year and he had 1186 01:07:03,200 --> 01:07:05,960 Speaker 2: that was at the foot injury in twenty three with Miami, 1187 01:07:06,080 --> 01:07:08,360 Speaker 2: and he sort of made it sound like that he 1188 01:07:08,760 --> 01:07:10,720 Speaker 2: didn't play last year. It wasn't because of the foot. 1189 01:07:10,760 --> 01:07:14,320 Speaker 2: It was because of situations. But he didn't play last year. 1190 01:07:15,080 --> 01:07:20,480 Speaker 2: I mean, it's if a guy is healthy enough, then 1191 01:07:20,680 --> 01:07:23,480 Speaker 2: at that position, somebody's gonna give you a chance. They 1192 01:07:23,600 --> 01:07:26,520 Speaker 2: just are. So something went on there. All I know 1193 01:07:26,720 --> 01:07:29,320 Speaker 2: is that he's not been what they thought. And just 1194 01:07:29,440 --> 01:07:33,640 Speaker 2: because he and Lou have a history, okay, so what 1195 01:07:34,120 --> 01:07:36,880 Speaker 2: you know that that's got an expiration date too, And 1196 01:07:37,480 --> 01:07:40,160 Speaker 2: you know, I'm really curious to hear what Lou has 1197 01:07:40,240 --> 01:07:43,800 Speaker 2: to say, yes tomorrow or late tomorrow when he talks 1198 01:07:43,880 --> 01:07:46,439 Speaker 2: with the media, because it's kind of like the old 1199 01:07:46,680 --> 01:07:49,520 Speaker 2: Daisy and Lucy. You know, you got some explaining the dude. 1200 01:07:50,880 --> 01:07:52,160 Speaker 2: Just because it was a strange game. 1201 01:07:52,280 --> 01:07:56,360 Speaker 7: Defensive wind chap I thought with no alec Pearce that 1202 01:07:56,440 --> 01:07:59,040 Speaker 7: there was baby the potential to get Josh downs going. 1203 01:07:59,560 --> 01:08:01,960 Speaker 7: He plays thirty eight of the sixty one snaps, has 1204 01:08:02,000 --> 01:08:05,040 Speaker 7: four catches for twenty four yards. Is there something going 1205 01:08:05,120 --> 01:08:07,240 Speaker 7: on that we don't know. I understand Tyler Warren takes 1206 01:08:07,240 --> 01:08:09,280 Speaker 7: away a lot of the things that you know, Josh 1207 01:08:09,360 --> 01:08:11,520 Speaker 7: Downs likes to do, but they just seemingly have not 1208 01:08:11,600 --> 01:08:13,800 Speaker 7: been able to get him going. And I think yesterday 1209 01:08:13,880 --> 01:08:15,760 Speaker 7: was the lowest snapcount of the season despite no Alean 1210 01:08:15,840 --> 01:08:17,720 Speaker 7: Kruscher downs, no. 1211 01:08:18,080 --> 01:08:20,640 Speaker 2: Tyler Warreon, no Tyler Warren takes away a lot of 1212 01:08:20,880 --> 01:08:24,679 Speaker 2: Josh Downs. He does, he does. Heavy said that Josh 1213 01:08:24,800 --> 01:08:29,920 Speaker 2: Downs needs to be more involved, and that's why Alec 1214 01:08:30,080 --> 01:08:33,720 Speaker 2: Pierce is sort of the ideal guy to be in 1215 01:08:33,800 --> 01:08:37,720 Speaker 2: this receiver rotation because I think it's an amazing thing 1216 01:08:37,720 --> 01:08:41,479 Speaker 2: about Alec Pears is how unselfish externally he is. 1217 01:08:41,600 --> 01:08:42,640 Speaker 3: Now he may boil. 1218 01:08:42,479 --> 01:08:46,720 Speaker 2: Inside, but he seems like he's just fine getting four 1219 01:08:46,880 --> 01:08:49,320 Speaker 2: targets and three catches because he's gonna make a couple 1220 01:08:49,360 --> 01:08:52,640 Speaker 2: of big plays, and I think that's very rare for 1221 01:08:52,720 --> 01:08:56,519 Speaker 2: a receiver, it really is. But they need to get 1222 01:08:56,720 --> 01:08:59,560 Speaker 2: Downs again. The fat that people need to remember is 1223 01:08:59,640 --> 01:09:03,280 Speaker 2: Josh had had more catches in his first two years 1224 01:09:03,880 --> 01:09:07,200 Speaker 2: than any player in franchise history, and this franchise is 1225 01:09:07,320 --> 01:09:09,880 Speaker 2: have some pretty good receivers, so they need to get 1226 01:09:09,920 --> 01:09:12,000 Speaker 2: in more involved. He's the guy that I think has 1227 01:09:12,400 --> 01:09:18,800 Speaker 2: to be frustrated by his his lack of involvement. But 1228 01:09:19,000 --> 01:09:20,800 Speaker 2: it's hard to do that when you're three and one 1229 01:09:21,720 --> 01:09:24,120 Speaker 2: and whenever they go to him, it's like third and 1230 01:09:24,320 --> 01:09:28,320 Speaker 2: seven and he gets you eight or more. Uh, he's 1231 01:09:28,400 --> 01:09:32,800 Speaker 2: the one that they need to find more targets. But Doggne, 1232 01:09:33,320 --> 01:09:35,240 Speaker 2: I think a lot of us talked in the offseason 1233 01:09:35,320 --> 01:09:37,840 Speaker 2: that Tyler Warren is going to get a lot of 1234 01:09:37,880 --> 01:09:41,719 Speaker 2: that stuff, and there are you know, they put Michael 1235 01:09:41,720 --> 01:09:45,280 Speaker 2: Pittman's off to a good start and so JT. So 1236 01:09:45,760 --> 01:09:49,360 Speaker 2: there are only so many targets in a game. I 1237 01:09:49,400 --> 01:09:51,160 Speaker 2: don't think they want to throw the ball forty times 1238 01:09:51,200 --> 01:09:54,719 Speaker 2: a game or whatever. What did Jones with the twenty 1239 01:09:54,760 --> 01:09:57,880 Speaker 2: three or thirty four? That's probably a few too many 1240 01:09:57,960 --> 01:10:01,519 Speaker 2: for them. Yeah, Josh Stawns is a guy that they've 1241 01:10:01,520 --> 01:10:03,120 Speaker 2: got to find a way to get more involved. I 1242 01:10:03,720 --> 01:10:05,040 Speaker 2: agree with that. You know. 1243 01:10:05,240 --> 01:10:10,720 Speaker 1: The again, the funny thing about it, to put a 1244 01:10:10,800 --> 01:10:12,360 Speaker 1: tie on all of it, Chap, is the fact that 1245 01:10:12,439 --> 01:10:14,280 Speaker 1: they're three and one. And if I would have told 1246 01:10:14,360 --> 01:10:17,000 Speaker 1: you when I was handing you a Beatles shirt back 1247 01:10:17,040 --> 01:10:18,519 Speaker 1: at camp that they were going to start out three 1248 01:10:18,600 --> 01:10:20,880 Speaker 1: and one and that we would be nitpicking, like two 1249 01:10:20,960 --> 01:10:23,679 Speaker 1: boneheaded plays to cost them. You would have said, sign 1250 01:10:23,760 --> 01:10:25,880 Speaker 1: me up all day long, right, sign me up all 1251 01:10:25,960 --> 01:10:27,320 Speaker 1: day long for that good question. 1252 01:10:27,720 --> 01:10:29,840 Speaker 2: It's all about you know they always break down the 1253 01:10:29,960 --> 01:10:34,559 Speaker 2: season into quarters. Without screwy seventeenth game, you're three and one. 1254 01:10:35,000 --> 01:10:37,800 Speaker 2: I mean you're telling me you wouldn't take that back 1255 01:10:37,880 --> 01:10:41,639 Speaker 2: in August like you said you would. I would much 1256 01:10:41,760 --> 01:10:45,439 Speaker 2: rather be three and one, no one. I've got things 1257 01:10:45,520 --> 01:10:48,680 Speaker 2: to fix than being on and for and say, man, 1258 01:10:49,160 --> 01:10:52,680 Speaker 2: how do we fix this? Because the things that were 1259 01:10:52,920 --> 01:10:59,080 Speaker 2: messed up yesterday are fixable, and I'm curious how they 1260 01:10:59,160 --> 01:11:02,920 Speaker 2: go about trying to fix them. Uh that's again the 1261 01:11:03,000 --> 01:11:04,439 Speaker 2: next couple of days. I want to hear what we 1262 01:11:04,479 --> 01:11:06,479 Speaker 2: get changed stacking later. I don't know that he's gonna 1263 01:11:06,520 --> 01:11:09,040 Speaker 2: give with a lot just because he wants to see 1264 01:11:09,120 --> 01:11:11,640 Speaker 2: the tape, and that's that's what coaches do. They're not 1265 01:11:11,760 --> 01:11:14,320 Speaker 2: going to really dive deep into it. I think I 1266 01:11:14,400 --> 01:11:17,880 Speaker 2: think Lou will give us some insight on what the 1267 01:11:17,960 --> 01:11:23,439 Speaker 2: heck's going on and how personnel wise. Personnel wise, you're 1268 01:11:23,520 --> 01:11:25,320 Speaker 2: not gonna be able to address it until you get 1269 01:11:25,320 --> 01:11:25,960 Speaker 2: a couple of these. 1270 01:11:25,840 --> 01:11:29,240 Speaker 1: Guys back twenty four of thirty three.

But the Reds 1310 01:13:22,720 --> 01:13:26,040 Speaker 1: didn't even win their I mean, they basically backed their 1311 01:13:26,080 --> 01:13:28,800 Speaker 1: way into the playoffs because the Marlins took care of 1312 01:13:28,840 --> 01:13:31,559 Speaker 1: the Mets and the Reds were in I believe Milwaukee, 1313 01:13:31,720 --> 01:13:34,639 Speaker 1: right they were, and they went out in the field 1314 01:13:34,680 --> 01:13:36,200 Speaker 1: and they still did like a champagne thing. 1315 01:13:36,479 --> 01:13:38,240 Speaker 7: They saw Jake that it was the first time they 1316 01:13:38,280 --> 01:13:39,920 Speaker 7: made the playoffs in years. 1317 01:13:40,560 --> 01:13:41,040 Speaker 1: I get it. 1318 01:13:41,200 --> 01:13:45,439 Speaker 7: But you tell them the Reds some credit. 1319 01:13:45,520 --> 01:13:49,760 Speaker 1: Come on, now, Reds and Dodgers, Cubs and Padres, right. 1320 01:13:49,840 --> 01:13:52,400 Speaker 7: I mean they let's see, they won nine of their 1321 01:13:52,479 --> 01:13:53,479 Speaker 7: last thirteen games. 1322 01:13:55,520 --> 01:13:58,479 Speaker 1: I've got Is it unusual that I have a team 1323 01:13:58,520 --> 01:14:00,240 Speaker 1: I'm rooting for in the NL and a team I'm 1324 01:14:00,280 --> 01:14:02,320 Speaker 1: rooting for in the AL? Not at all? Who is 1325 01:14:02,400 --> 01:14:04,280 Speaker 1: your ale team? I don't know. 1326 01:14:04,320 --> 01:14:05,240 Speaker 7: I haven't picked one yet. 1327 01:14:05,280 --> 01:14:07,479 Speaker 1: I'll be rooting for the Blue Jays in the American League, 1328 01:14:07,479 --> 01:14:10,080 Speaker 1: of course, of course, I'm the Reds in the Nation League. 1329 01:14:10,080 --> 01:14:12,479 Speaker 7: Boys, Okay, Boston in New York. I didn't even see that. 1330 01:14:12,600 --> 01:14:14,040 Speaker 7: That's juicy, juicy stuff. 1331 01:14:14,280 --> 01:14:18,000 Speaker 1: So yesterday, of all the baseball teams, we're talking about, 1332 01:14:18,040 --> 01:14:19,760 Speaker 1: all the teams in the National Football League that won 1333 01:14:19,880 --> 01:14:24,400 Speaker 1: the two happiest guys on Earth yesterday sitting back rubbing 1334 01:14:24,439 --> 01:14:27,880 Speaker 1: their hands, saying, bring it on, baby. I'm assuming this 1335 01:14:28,000 --> 01:14:29,400 Speaker 1: is still the case. At least it was a year 1336 01:14:29,439 --> 01:14:35,439 Speaker 1: ago in terms of representation c J. Leboy and Michael Swinson. CJ. 1337 01:14:35,920 --> 01:14:39,400 Speaker 1: Lea Boy and Michael Swinson. Swinson is not the guy 1338 01:14:39,479 --> 01:14:42,120 Speaker 1: that owns the fabulous ice cream part of that used 1339 01:14:42,120 --> 01:14:44,760 Speaker 1: to be in Glendale. No, Michael Swinson and c J. 1340 01:14:44,920 --> 01:14:50,519 Speaker 1: Leboy are the co agents for Alec Pearce. And you've 1341 01:14:50,560 --> 01:14:55,479 Speaker 1: got to think that yesterday, Alec Pierce his value continued 1342 01:14:55,479 --> 01:14:57,400 Speaker 1: to go up because if you're the Colts and you're 1343 01:14:57,439 --> 01:15:00,160 Speaker 1: thinking to themselves, you know what, we can let like 1344 01:15:00,200 --> 01:15:02,400 Speaker 1: Pierce go in free agency if somebody comes along to 1345 01:15:02,439 --> 01:15:05,639 Speaker 1: make him big deal. Because we got Adie Mitchell. I'm 1346 01:15:05,680 --> 01:15:07,880 Speaker 1: not saying Adie Mitchell doesn't show that he's got some talent, 1347 01:15:08,000 --> 01:15:12,560 Speaker 1: but Adie Mitchell also absolutely shows that he's got some 1348 01:15:12,680 --> 01:15:14,720 Speaker 1: growing up to do. Daniel Jones is the quarterback that 1349 01:15:14,840 --> 01:15:19,360 Speaker 1: was throwing the ball to Adie Mitchell. His thoughts from 1350 01:15:19,479 --> 01:15:22,559 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones yesterday on the Ady Mitchell fumble. 1351 01:15:23,560 --> 01:15:25,120 Speaker 13: He made a heck of a catch from that play 1352 01:15:25,200 --> 01:15:29,840 Speaker 13: to get to the ball there. Incredible, incredible catch. Yeah, 1353 01:15:29,880 --> 01:15:32,880 Speaker 13: I many tough play for sure, you know, after such 1354 01:15:32,920 --> 01:15:35,000 Speaker 13: a tremendous effort and just lost the ball there at 1355 01:15:35,000 --> 01:15:37,120 Speaker 13: the end. But feel for him. I know, I know 1356 01:15:37,240 --> 01:15:41,000 Speaker 13: he he hurts with that, but you know he'll bounce back. 1357 01:15:41,080 --> 01:15:43,599 Speaker 13: And he's a hard working guy. He's in there every 1358 01:15:43,640 --> 01:15:45,759 Speaker 13: day grinding. So we all have a lot of faith 1359 01:15:46,160 --> 01:15:48,880 Speaker 13: in a D. And you know, I'll continue to have 1360 01:15:48,920 --> 01:15:50,840 Speaker 13: a ton of faith in a D. And you know, 1361 01:15:50,920 --> 01:15:52,760 Speaker 13: one play doesn't define any ball game. 1362 01:15:52,920 --> 01:15:55,040 Speaker 3: You know, we didn't do enough today to win the game. 1363 01:15:55,800 --> 01:15:58,639 Speaker 1: One play does not. That's correct, So why not add 1364 01:15:58,720 --> 01:16:03,960 Speaker 1: to it. One play doesn't define a ballgame? So let's 1365 01:16:04,040 --> 01:16:08,120 Speaker 1: have a second like, for example, that Johnathan Taylor run. 1366 01:16:08,240 --> 01:16:11,599 Speaker 1: And yes, you could certainly make the case or make 1367 01:16:11,680 --> 01:16:15,040 Speaker 1: the point that Jonathan Taylor does not get that long 1368 01:16:15,160 --> 01:16:17,680 Speaker 1: touchdown run without the hold from Ady Mitchell, maybe that's 1369 01:16:17,720 --> 01:16:21,960 Speaker 1: what sprung him free. But nonetheless, Mitchell still has that 1370 01:16:22,200 --> 01:16:26,439 Speaker 1: second play, and thus that does even more define yesterday 1371 01:16:26,560 --> 01:16:29,200 Speaker 1: the game. And we'll see how long we will remember 1372 01:16:29,240 --> 01:16:32,000 Speaker 1: it as the Ady Mitchell game. Johnanthan Taylor, you would think, 1373 01:16:32,680 --> 01:16:37,240 Speaker 1: probably was grateful and I'm saying that facetiously for the 1374 01:16:37,320 --> 01:16:40,720 Speaker 1: fact that Adie Mitchell by dropping that ball, Yes, it 1375 01:16:40,960 --> 01:16:44,680 Speaker 1: reawakened our memory, our PTSD of that Johnathan Taylor play 1376 01:16:44,760 --> 01:16:47,040 Speaker 1: in Denver, but at the same time kind of took 1377 01:16:47,080 --> 01:16:49,599 Speaker 1: Taylor off the hook because now it's like, oh good, 1378 01:16:50,080 --> 01:16:52,080 Speaker 1: the running back no longer is the guy that we 1379 01:16:52,200 --> 01:16:54,639 Speaker 1: think of for the most boneheaded drop of the football 1380 01:16:54,720 --> 01:16:57,040 Speaker 1: going into the end zone. That now belongs to Adie Mitchell. 1381 01:16:57,360 --> 01:17:00,240 Speaker 1: But with all of that going into it, because because 1382 01:17:00,280 --> 01:17:04,479 Speaker 1: after that play took place with Mitchell, the next series out, 1383 01:17:05,880 --> 01:17:07,840 Speaker 1: they showed Mitchell, you know, in the huddle and he's 1384 01:17:07,880 --> 01:17:10,519 Speaker 1: just kind of wandering. He was like the lonely kid 1385 01:17:10,600 --> 01:17:15,240 Speaker 1: in right field and little league, just wandering picking daisies off. 1386 01:17:15,479 --> 01:17:18,240 Speaker 1: Aside from the huddle, they showed him on the sidelines 1387 01:17:20,760 --> 01:17:25,240 Speaker 1: almost seemed inconsolable. And for a guy that his mental 1388 01:17:25,360 --> 01:17:28,320 Speaker 1: focus has been the question mark to this point, then 1389 01:17:28,360 --> 01:17:30,280 Speaker 1: you wonder what his mental focus is going to be 1390 01:17:30,400 --> 01:17:33,160 Speaker 1: coming off of that. Daniel Jones, leader of the offense, 1391 01:17:33,240 --> 01:17:36,280 Speaker 1: quarterback of the team, what exactly do you say to 1392 01:17:36,360 --> 01:17:39,240 Speaker 1: Adie Mitchell after a game like that where not one, 1393 01:17:39,360 --> 01:17:41,200 Speaker 1: now but two plays might have defined. 1394 01:17:40,920 --> 01:17:42,800 Speaker 13: It, making sure he knows I'm going to keep coming 1395 01:17:42,840 --> 01:17:46,240 Speaker 13: to him and keep counting on him and communicate that 1396 01:17:46,320 --> 01:17:46,639 Speaker 13: to him. 1397 01:17:46,760 --> 01:17:48,160 Speaker 2: He cares a lot about this. 1398 01:17:48,360 --> 01:17:51,200 Speaker 13: He works hard, he's you know he's one of those guys, 1399 01:17:51,280 --> 01:17:54,240 Speaker 13: so just kind of encourage him to play the next play, 1400 01:17:54,360 --> 01:17:57,920 Speaker 13: move forward, and you know that's the communication there. But 1401 01:17:58,280 --> 01:17:59,920 Speaker 13: like I said, one play doesn't define the. 1402 01:18:01,000 --> 01:18:04,519 Speaker 1: Well again, a second kind of did. Now in terms 1403 01:18:04,560 --> 01:18:09,280 Speaker 1: of going to him, I was very intrigued by this 1404 01:18:09,960 --> 01:18:14,760 Speaker 1: for a couple of possessions. I made a note as 1405 01:18:14,800 --> 01:18:18,400 Speaker 1: soon as that play happened with Mitchell, I went to 1406 01:18:18,479 --> 01:18:21,000 Speaker 1: the box score and looked at the number of targets 1407 01:18:21,040 --> 01:18:25,320 Speaker 1: he'd had. He had three to that point, and I thought, 1408 01:18:25,600 --> 01:18:27,120 Speaker 1: what are the odds at the end of the game 1409 01:18:28,200 --> 01:18:30,320 Speaker 1: that it's going to be three targets to Adie Mitchell 1410 01:18:30,760 --> 01:18:34,960 Speaker 1: and that the Colts are just going to say, it's fine, 1411 01:18:35,000 --> 01:18:36,040 Speaker 1: but we're just not going to go to you. 1412 01:18:36,200 --> 01:18:36,360 Speaker 10: Now. 1413 01:18:37,800 --> 01:18:41,640 Speaker 1: You know, we have seen quarterbacks in this town that 1414 01:18:41,800 --> 01:18:44,160 Speaker 1: there are two different things that kind of become their 1415 01:18:44,200 --> 01:18:47,920 Speaker 1: calling card. If you look at Peyton Manning and Peyton 1416 01:18:47,960 --> 01:18:52,160 Speaker 1: Manning's time, I think receivers knew that you only got 1417 01:18:52,200 --> 01:18:54,200 Speaker 1: so many looks that he would go to you before 1418 01:18:54,320 --> 01:18:57,200 Speaker 1: he would then go in a different direction or find 1419 01:18:57,240 --> 01:18:59,519 Speaker 1: another guy that he trusted. Not forever, but I'm saying 1420 01:18:59,520 --> 01:19:03,960 Speaker 1: over the course the game and Andrew luck is a 1421 01:19:04,080 --> 01:19:08,160 Speaker 1: player that the big number of times that his team 1422 01:19:08,200 --> 01:19:11,479 Speaker 1: would score on possessions after he had thrown a pick, 1423 01:19:12,120 --> 01:19:14,800 Speaker 1: and his ability to quote Ted Lasso to be a 1424 01:19:14,840 --> 01:19:19,439 Speaker 1: goldfish and just flip from that. And in Daniel Jones' case, 1425 01:19:19,520 --> 01:19:23,000 Speaker 1: I was curious not only of would he go away 1426 01:19:23,080 --> 01:19:25,799 Speaker 1: from Ady Mitchell, but after throwing the early pick, for example, 1427 01:19:26,200 --> 01:19:29,200 Speaker 1: would he settle in? And I thought Jones did. I 1428 01:19:29,280 --> 01:19:31,639 Speaker 1: thought he looked confident yesterday. I thought he looked pretty 1429 01:19:31,680 --> 01:19:37,160 Speaker 1: much in command. But late in the game, first off, 1430 01:19:37,320 --> 01:19:40,719 Speaker 1: after that one of the possessions right after the Ady 1431 01:19:40,800 --> 01:19:46,000 Speaker 1: Mitchell drop is when the Colts needed to play and 1432 01:19:46,080 --> 01:19:50,320 Speaker 1: they went to Ashton Doolan, who is kind of Ashton 1433 01:19:50,400 --> 01:19:54,680 Speaker 1: Dulan just kind of seems like that guy that you 1434 01:19:54,880 --> 01:19:58,160 Speaker 1: don't you know, he's the he's the copier guy. One 1435 01:19:58,200 --> 01:20:01,000 Speaker 1: of my terms every off has it the guy that 1436 01:20:01,640 --> 01:20:03,600 Speaker 1: everybody's sitting around. It's like, what's going on, Like we 1437 01:20:03,680 --> 01:20:05,599 Speaker 1: have the copier is not working. And then literally it's 1438 01:20:05,640 --> 01:20:08,519 Speaker 1: like in this building, it's Scotty. Call Scotty, he'll know 1439 01:20:08,520 --> 01:20:10,240 Speaker 1: what to do. I have a question for you, Jake. 1440 01:20:10,320 --> 01:20:13,360 Speaker 7: This is more philosophical than anything else in your belief. 1441 01:20:14,360 --> 01:20:17,960 Speaker 7: If you're in that position with Shane Steichen, are you 1442 01:20:18,200 --> 01:20:20,639 Speaker 7: one that would rather bench him for a couple series 1443 01:20:20,680 --> 01:20:22,040 Speaker 7: so that he can get his mind back in the 1444 01:20:22,120 --> 01:20:25,759 Speaker 7: game or on the first play of the next series, 1445 01:20:25,800 --> 01:20:27,240 Speaker 7: do you go right back to him to take a 1446 01:20:27,280 --> 01:20:29,960 Speaker 7: quarterback questions? No, great question. I think that's your quarterback question, 1447 01:20:30,040 --> 01:20:35,200 Speaker 7: that that that goes to the quarterback. That's and yes, 1448 01:20:35,320 --> 01:20:37,040 Speaker 7: we've kind of seen both of that in this town 1449 01:20:37,160 --> 01:20:39,760 Speaker 7: over the years in terms of what the quarterback does. 1450 01:20:40,280 --> 01:20:43,080 Speaker 7: And they went to Dulan is my point, Like Duelan 1451 01:20:43,160 --> 01:20:45,200 Speaker 7: the copier guy, is that they bring him in and 1452 01:20:45,280 --> 01:20:45,920 Speaker 7: they go to him. 1453 01:20:46,479 --> 01:20:49,479 Speaker 1: Maybe that was to kind of wake up eighty Mitchell. 1454 01:20:49,600 --> 01:20:53,160 Speaker 1: But late in the game, you notice on that last 1455 01:20:53,320 --> 01:20:56,479 Speaker 1: drive when they needed a first down, I think it 1456 01:20:56,520 --> 01:20:58,360 Speaker 1: was a third and ten, maybe they go to a 1457 01:20:58,439 --> 01:21:01,120 Speaker 1: twelve yard play two eighty Mitch and he makes that play. 1458 01:21:01,680 --> 01:21:05,519 Speaker 1: Now in that moment, does I don't you know you're 1459 01:21:05,600 --> 01:21:09,120 Speaker 1: not designing as the play caller, meaning Shane Stikeen to 1460 01:21:09,200 --> 01:21:11,439 Speaker 1: go to a specific guy, But it's well within the 1461 01:21:11,520 --> 01:21:14,760 Speaker 1: first or second of your progression, and Jones went to him, 1462 01:21:15,320 --> 01:21:19,479 Speaker 1: and so they did give him opportunity to close it, 1463 01:21:19,600 --> 01:21:21,920 Speaker 1: I guess in making a play for them, and then 1464 01:21:21,960 --> 01:21:26,000 Speaker 1: obviously the turnover. But Zire Franklin is one that I 1465 01:21:26,200 --> 01:21:29,000 Speaker 1: noticed during all of that time. When Mitchell came to 1466 01:21:29,080 --> 01:21:31,600 Speaker 1: the sideline, Zire Franklin was one of the first to 1467 01:21:31,720 --> 01:21:34,800 Speaker 1: go over and really kind of try to lift him up. 1468 01:21:34,880 --> 01:21:37,520 Speaker 1: Zire Franklin after the game on Adie Mitchell. 1469 01:21:37,320 --> 01:21:39,760 Speaker 14: It's another example of another young player who made him 1470 01:21:40,000 --> 01:21:42,720 Speaker 14: had made a great play, made a mistake, and he 1471 01:21:42,800 --> 01:21:45,160 Speaker 14: know's got to learn from and respond from how he responds. 1472 01:21:45,200 --> 01:21:47,439 Speaker 14: This is the biggest part to meet. That's a special play. 1473 01:21:47,479 --> 01:21:48,960 Speaker 14: I don't know anybody else on our team that's able 1474 01:21:49,000 --> 01:21:50,479 Speaker 14: to catch the ball and then go and do that afterwards. 1475 01:21:51,160 --> 01:21:53,280 Speaker 14: I would lean into that more than than how to 1476 01:21:53,320 --> 01:21:55,640 Speaker 14: fit result edavan and just tell him the continue to 1477 01:21:55,640 --> 01:21:56,320 Speaker 14: build and grow on that. 1478 01:21:56,439 --> 01:21:59,960 Speaker 1: So, now here's the thing. I get everything he said. 1479 01:22:01,800 --> 01:22:03,439 Speaker 1: And he is a young player. I mean he'll be 1480 01:22:03,520 --> 01:22:07,400 Speaker 1: twenty three in a week basically, but he's in his 1481 01:22:07,520 --> 01:22:10,759 Speaker 1: second year in the NFL. And again, at some point 1482 01:22:11,640 --> 01:22:12,960 Speaker 1: you got to be able to put that behind you. 1483 01:22:13,920 --> 01:22:15,800 Speaker 1: There was more than just a Colts game that took 1484 01:22:15,840 --> 01:22:18,240 Speaker 1: place this weekend. By the way, Aaron Nesmith in about 1485 01:22:18,280 --> 01:22:22,240 Speaker 1: forty five minutes. But we come back. Did we see 1486 01:22:23,120 --> 01:22:28,240 Speaker 1: one of the biggest moments of college football get away 1487 01:22:28,400 --> 01:22:30,679 Speaker 1: from the state of Indiana and then find its way back. 1488 01:22:30,840 --> 01:22:34,759 Speaker 1: I'll explain what I mean next. More on the Colts 1489 01:22:34,800 --> 01:22:38,599 Speaker 1: coming up about fifteen minutes from now to the text 1490 01:22:38,760 --> 01:22:42,320 Speaker 1: line we go before I get into what might have 1491 01:22:42,400 --> 01:22:47,200 Speaker 1: gone away from and come back to Indiana over the weekend. Hey, Jake, 1492 01:22:47,280 --> 01:22:51,040 Speaker 1: the Reds should celebrate. They won more games that matter 1493 01:22:51,920 --> 01:22:54,960 Speaker 1: than sixteen other teams. That from Matt and Avon. Hell yes, 1494 01:22:55,280 --> 01:22:58,720 Speaker 1: Matt from Avon. I appreciate the backing here, Jake. What 1495 01:22:58,800 --> 01:23:02,879 Speaker 1: did Carly Urson say? Excuse me, Carly Ursa say yesterday 1496 01:23:03,920 --> 01:23:05,920 Speaker 1: after the game? I actually did not hear did you 1497 01:23:06,040 --> 01:23:10,880 Speaker 1: happen to see know anything? I don't know that they well, 1498 01:23:10,920 --> 01:23:13,080 Speaker 1: they don't. You know, they wouldn't post, obviously the video 1499 01:23:13,240 --> 01:23:15,560 Speaker 1: from the locker room after the game yesterday because it 1500 01:23:15,640 --> 01:23:16,439 Speaker 1: was not after a win. 1501 01:23:19,520 --> 01:23:19,680 Speaker 3: Jake. 1502 01:23:19,760 --> 01:23:21,720 Speaker 1: The Colts aren't mature enough to deal with all the 1503 01:23:21,840 --> 01:23:24,120 Speaker 1: undefeated talk now that I'll have to deal with that 1504 01:23:24,240 --> 01:23:27,080 Speaker 1: and have a good chance of having a one lost season. 1505 01:23:27,240 --> 01:23:29,320 Speaker 1: I don't know that I'd go that far. I mean, 1506 01:23:29,479 --> 01:23:32,000 Speaker 1: although when you look at the schedule it seems favorable, 1507 01:23:32,040 --> 01:23:34,160 Speaker 1: but they do have you know, they got to go 1508 01:23:34,200 --> 01:23:37,960 Speaker 1: to Kansas City. That's gonna be tough. Pittsburgh's kind of 1509 01:23:37,960 --> 01:23:42,800 Speaker 1: a weird one because does do you think Pittsburgh's you know, 1510 01:23:43,200 --> 01:23:47,080 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh's kind of that team right now? Like is Pittsburgh good? Yeah, 1511 01:23:48,320 --> 01:23:53,080 Speaker 1: you know, I don't know. I mean, did I saw 1512 01:23:53,200 --> 01:23:57,160 Speaker 1: this from Trey Essex is a good dude, a former 1513 01:23:57,240 --> 01:24:00,360 Speaker 1: cult and former Steeler, but he was watching the game 1514 01:24:00,439 --> 01:24:04,719 Speaker 1: yesterday in Amsterdam. There was a lot of question about 1515 01:24:05,760 --> 01:24:08,320 Speaker 1: after the Steelers game, the interview that Aaron Rodgers did 1516 01:24:08,400 --> 01:24:10,360 Speaker 1: with Pam Oliver. Did you happen to hear that, Eddie, 1517 01:24:10,439 --> 01:24:15,439 Speaker 1: I didn't see if you can pull up. There were 1518 01:24:15,479 --> 01:24:18,200 Speaker 1: people that were questioning if Pam Oliver was slurring on 1519 01:24:18,280 --> 01:24:21,800 Speaker 1: the air. And now she's had I think a history 1520 01:24:21,840 --> 01:24:24,360 Speaker 1: of like migraines or maybe even concussion. She may have 1521 01:24:24,439 --> 01:24:29,880 Speaker 1: at one point had like a neurological health issue. So 1522 01:24:29,920 --> 01:24:31,960 Speaker 1: I'm not making light of it under any stretch. But 1523 01:24:32,600 --> 01:24:36,360 Speaker 1: I didn't personally like people were making a huge deal 1524 01:24:36,400 --> 01:24:38,200 Speaker 1: out of it, and I didn't think it sounded that 1525 01:24:38,520 --> 01:24:42,600 Speaker 1: terrible to be honest with you, But see if you 1526 01:24:42,640 --> 01:24:45,559 Speaker 1: can find that. When she was interviewing Aaron Rodgers after 1527 01:24:45,640 --> 01:24:50,760 Speaker 1: the game yesterday, it went pretty viral in terms of 1528 01:24:50,960 --> 01:24:53,720 Speaker 1: I don't know that I'd say she was slurring. She 1529 01:24:53,920 --> 01:24:58,559 Speaker 1: just was speaking very slowly. Did you find it by chance? 1530 01:24:59,680 --> 01:25:02,760 Speaker 1: I think I might have found something, So okay, this 1531 01:25:02,920 --> 01:25:05,519 Speaker 1: is after the game. You might want to listen to 1532 01:25:05,520 --> 01:25:07,280 Speaker 1: it first, just to make sure that it's not somebody 1533 01:25:07,439 --> 01:25:10,320 Speaker 1: doctoring it up. Do we have it here, Pam Oliver? Yesterday? 1534 01:25:10,360 --> 01:25:10,640 Speaker 3: Here we go. 1535 01:25:10,960 --> 01:25:13,400 Speaker 9: I didn't know if you've got to appreciate it it all, 1536 01:25:13,560 --> 01:25:17,640 Speaker 9: but the fans, it's terrible tals people having a mighty. 1537 01:25:17,400 --> 01:25:18,320 Speaker 1: Old good sign. 1538 01:25:18,800 --> 01:25:21,680 Speaker 4: Were you able to get a sense of what was 1539 01:25:21,800 --> 01:25:23,600 Speaker 4: going on in your environment? 1540 01:25:24,120 --> 01:25:26,720 Speaker 1: She was speaking very slow there. But I'm gonna say this, 1541 01:25:26,960 --> 01:25:29,439 Speaker 1: and I've not heard today in any elaboration on that, 1542 01:25:30,439 --> 01:25:32,960 Speaker 1: but one thing I will where I will give her 1543 01:25:33,560 --> 01:25:39,240 Speaker 1: benefit of doubt here. When you do live television, oftentimes 1544 01:25:39,280 --> 01:25:41,600 Speaker 1: you have a lot of audio in your ear, and 1545 01:25:41,840 --> 01:25:44,640 Speaker 1: especially if you're doing it like that where you are overseas, 1546 01:25:44,680 --> 01:25:46,600 Speaker 1: and there's the chance of a reverb or what we 1547 01:25:46,680 --> 01:25:49,720 Speaker 1: call mixed minus, which is where where every everything thing 1548 01:25:49,880 --> 01:25:54,719 Speaker 1: you say say is is repeating repeating. It can cause 1549 01:25:54,760 --> 01:25:57,040 Speaker 1: you to like whoa like and you jump back now, 1550 01:25:57,080 --> 01:25:58,800 Speaker 1: A lot of times you'll see people pop that little 1551 01:25:58,800 --> 01:26:01,800 Speaker 1: thing out of their ear. I don't know if that 1552 01:26:01,960 --> 01:26:05,080 Speaker 1: was the case there, but you can't rule it out. 1553 01:26:05,120 --> 01:26:07,400 Speaker 1: But I didn't think that was as egregious as the 1554 01:26:07,479 --> 01:26:09,120 Speaker 1: people that were like, whoa, what in the world is 1555 01:26:09,200 --> 01:26:11,560 Speaker 1: going on? But that was kind of the storyline for 1556 01:26:11,600 --> 01:26:13,599 Speaker 1: a lot of people after that game. But my point being, 1557 01:26:13,720 --> 01:26:16,240 Speaker 1: you know, are the Steelers good? You know, I don't 1558 01:26:16,240 --> 01:26:18,240 Speaker 1: know are the Raiders good. The Raiders can run the ball. 1559 01:26:18,360 --> 01:26:21,920 Speaker 1: We saw that yesterday, but then they missed a field 1560 01:26:21,920 --> 01:26:25,840 Speaker 1: goal late in Chicago gets that win. But Saturday, I'm 1561 01:26:25,880 --> 01:26:33,160 Speaker 1: watching college football and I'm watching Indiana and Iowa. Now, 1562 01:26:33,240 --> 01:26:37,880 Speaker 1: Chris Dido, former quarterback for Indiana, said the following to me, 1563 01:26:37,920 --> 01:26:40,000 Speaker 1: which I think was a really really good point talking 1564 01:26:40,040 --> 01:26:44,040 Speaker 1: about Iowa said, Jake Iowa is an absolute hammer and 1565 01:26:44,160 --> 01:26:47,120 Speaker 1: hard to play against. In Kennick, Indiana did have an 1566 01:26:47,120 --> 01:26:50,480 Speaker 1: answer for Iowa's blitz. They won the game when Mendoza 1567 01:26:50,560 --> 01:26:52,800 Speaker 1: hits sarat on the all out blitz. That was the 1568 01:26:52,880 --> 01:26:55,000 Speaker 1: type of game that Iu loses ninety nine percent of 1569 01:26:55,080 --> 01:26:57,320 Speaker 1: the time by missing the field goal late and then 1570 01:26:57,360 --> 01:26:59,720 Speaker 1: giving up a big pass play. But they hung in 1571 01:26:59,800 --> 01:27:02,840 Speaker 1: there and made Iowa pay the price. That was the 1572 01:27:02,920 --> 01:27:06,200 Speaker 1: type of game that can turn one big play, turn 1573 01:27:06,280 --> 01:27:08,960 Speaker 1: on one big play, and it did for Indiana. Somehow, 1574 01:27:09,000 --> 01:27:11,840 Speaker 1: the football gods continue to shine on the Hoosiers thanks 1575 01:27:11,880 --> 01:27:14,280 Speaker 1: to the coaching staff led by coach Signetti. Go Hoosiers. 1576 01:27:14,320 --> 01:27:16,639 Speaker 1: That from Chris Ditto. I think it's a really good point. 1577 01:27:17,280 --> 01:27:21,120 Speaker 1: And so Indiana, I mean, you want to talk about 1578 01:27:21,200 --> 01:27:24,760 Speaker 1: clock management. Earlier Dave was calling about clock management. I 1579 01:27:24,920 --> 01:27:27,839 Speaker 1: have no idea what Iowa was doing in clock management 1580 01:27:27,880 --> 01:27:32,280 Speaker 1: in that game. But as I'm watching it, and Indiana 1581 01:27:32,360 --> 01:27:38,520 Speaker 1: comes down and Mendoza throws a costly pick that seemingly 1582 01:27:38,640 --> 01:27:42,080 Speaker 1: cost him the game, and Iowa gets the ball and 1583 01:27:42,200 --> 01:27:45,479 Speaker 1: they run literally the worst clock management in the history 1584 01:27:45,520 --> 01:27:50,720 Speaker 1: of mankind. But they miss a field goal they could have. 1585 01:27:50,800 --> 01:27:53,439 Speaker 1: They had a chance essentially to run that clock down 1586 01:27:54,160 --> 01:27:55,519 Speaker 1: and then kick a field goal to win the game. 1587 01:27:55,600 --> 01:27:58,559 Speaker 1: They missed the field goal. It gives Indiana a chance. 1588 01:27:58,720 --> 01:28:02,479 Speaker 1: That was after a third down incompletion on a screen pass. Yeah, 1589 01:28:02,560 --> 01:28:07,559 Speaker 1: I mean it was. It was unbelievable. And so Indiana 1590 01:28:07,640 --> 01:28:09,479 Speaker 1: gets the ball back and as I'm watching it, I'm 1591 01:28:09,479 --> 01:28:10,720 Speaker 1: thinking to myself. 1592 01:28:10,800 --> 01:28:13,080 Speaker 7: Also, thank you Cristuda for proving me wrong. 1593 01:28:13,160 --> 01:28:13,320 Speaker 2: There. 1594 01:28:14,000 --> 01:28:14,400 Speaker 3: That's right. 1595 01:28:16,720 --> 01:28:22,240 Speaker 1: Indiana has never had obviously a Heisman winner, right, And 1596 01:28:22,439 --> 01:28:24,880 Speaker 1: I mean this, I'm saying Indiana University, not you know, 1597 01:28:24,960 --> 01:28:29,320 Speaker 1: Notre Dame, obviously has. But the closest that Indiana came 1598 01:28:30,880 --> 01:28:34,360 Speaker 1: was Anthony Thompson, who lost it to Andre Ware which 1599 01:28:34,479 --> 01:28:39,280 Speaker 1: was a complete joke in eighty nine and going into 1600 01:28:39,360 --> 01:28:42,120 Speaker 1: that game. And it's very early in the college football season, 1601 01:28:42,240 --> 01:28:46,720 Speaker 1: but Mendoza is getting conversation and many believe is the 1602 01:28:46,920 --> 01:28:50,120 Speaker 1: front runner right now for the Heisman, partially because there 1603 01:28:50,280 --> 01:28:53,240 Speaker 1: just really hasn't had you know, we haven't had anybody 1604 01:28:53,320 --> 01:28:56,320 Speaker 1: that's like completely separated themselves just yet. 1605 01:28:56,439 --> 01:28:58,360 Speaker 7: And John Mattier is out for a month with a 1606 01:28:58,439 --> 01:28:59,000 Speaker 7: hand injury. 1607 01:28:59,160 --> 01:28:59,719 Speaker 1: Hand injury. 1608 01:29:00,000 --> 01:29:02,240 Speaker 7: I figured that would have been your front runner for Oklahoma. 1609 01:29:03,000 --> 01:29:06,760 Speaker 7: But since he has that injury, now he's I think, 1610 01:29:06,800 --> 01:29:09,240 Speaker 7: you say, the quarterback at Oregon is in the mix now, 1611 01:29:09,400 --> 01:29:14,160 Speaker 7: Rante Mories. You know, Ohio State's got The problem for 1612 01:29:14,200 --> 01:29:16,360 Speaker 7: Ohio State is that they have multiple guys, right, So 1613 01:29:16,439 --> 01:29:18,840 Speaker 7: it kind of gets split around a little bit in 1614 01:29:19,000 --> 01:29:24,200 Speaker 7: terms of their offensive weapons. But Mendoza was His numbers 1615 01:29:24,240 --> 01:29:30,519 Speaker 7: were not great against Iowa, But oftentimes the heisman is 1616 01:29:31,280 --> 01:29:34,439 Speaker 7: it comes down to you need a signature play. And 1617 01:29:34,520 --> 01:29:36,680 Speaker 7: I'm not saying that that was a play that resonated 1618 01:29:36,920 --> 01:29:41,680 Speaker 7: anywhere outside of Bloomington, Indiana or Iowa City, Iowa. But 1619 01:29:42,840 --> 01:29:45,880 Speaker 7: to step in there as Mendoza did and deliver that 1620 01:29:45,960 --> 01:29:48,599 Speaker 7: ball and that play was as much Elijah Surat as 1621 01:29:48,640 --> 01:29:52,960 Speaker 7: it was Mendoza. But to deliver that play and put 1622 01:29:53,080 --> 01:29:55,280 Speaker 7: that ball right where it needed to go to win 1623 01:29:55,439 --> 01:30:00,400 Speaker 7: that game and steal a victory away from Iowa, that's 1624 01:30:00,479 --> 01:30:02,559 Speaker 7: the kind of stuff. Even though the numbers were not great. 1625 01:30:03,080 --> 01:30:04,960 Speaker 7: The problem is the numbers. You look at it and 1626 01:30:05,040 --> 01:30:07,360 Speaker 7: he was thirteen to twenty three for two thirty three. 1627 01:30:08,439 --> 01:30:10,920 Speaker 7: None of that jumps out of you like wow, you 1628 01:30:10,960 --> 01:30:16,880 Speaker 7: know that's big time quarterback production numbers. But delivering when 1629 01:30:16,920 --> 01:30:20,160 Speaker 7: his team most needed it and so far in a 1630 01:30:20,240 --> 01:30:23,960 Speaker 7: year where nobody else really has delivered, maybe that does 1631 01:30:24,240 --> 01:30:27,040 Speaker 7: put that heisman, keep it that heisman right When you 1632 01:30:27,080 --> 01:30:31,040 Speaker 7: thought the heisman conversation went away from Indiana, it put 1633 01:30:31,080 --> 01:30:35,000 Speaker 7: it right back in the conversation. With Indiana and the 1634 01:30:35,040 --> 01:30:38,760 Speaker 7: Hoosiers now ranked in the top ten bye week, and 1635 01:30:38,840 --> 01:30:42,320 Speaker 7: then they go to Oregon, who went into Penn State 1636 01:30:43,160 --> 01:30:45,800 Speaker 7: and as Penn State always does, James Franklin out four 1637 01:30:45,880 --> 01:30:48,280 Speaker 7: and twenty one against teams in the top ten. How 1638 01:30:48,280 --> 01:30:51,640 Speaker 7: about Notre Dame demolishing Arkansas, getting Sam Pittman fired that. 1639 01:30:51,920 --> 01:30:55,760 Speaker 1: Let me tell you they they did. That game was 1640 01:30:56,000 --> 01:30:56,800 Speaker 1: never in doubt. 1641 01:30:56,840 --> 01:30:58,920 Speaker 7: I mean there's a butt whooping and then there's whatever 1642 01:30:59,080 --> 01:31:02,200 Speaker 7: that was a butt whooping, and yeah, that game was 1643 01:31:02,280 --> 01:31:02,960 Speaker 7: never in doubt. 1644 01:31:03,040 --> 01:31:03,200 Speaker 3: Man. 1645 01:31:03,680 --> 01:31:10,880 Speaker 1: Never Yesterday, big Colts game in LA. Big Colts loss? 1646 01:31:11,360 --> 01:31:11,800 Speaker 3: Or was it? 1647 01:31:13,120 --> 01:31:15,679 Speaker 1: I think there are silver linings amongst the blue and white. 1648 01:31:16,560 --> 01:31:19,240 Speaker 1: I'll explain and aaron Ne Smith going to join us 1649 01:31:19,280 --> 01:31:25,519 Speaker 1: thirty five minutes from now. That's how it sounded yesterday. 1650 01:31:25,560 --> 01:31:28,559 Speaker 1: Colts Radio Network Matt Taylor Joe writes on the call. 1651 01:31:28,680 --> 01:31:31,200 Speaker 1: You heard from Adie Mitchell there as well as Shane 1652 01:31:31,280 --> 01:31:35,320 Speaker 1: Steichen as the Colts drop one in LA. And I 1653 01:31:35,479 --> 01:31:42,760 Speaker 1: mentioned earlier and I'll mention it again, and yes, we 1654 01:31:42,880 --> 01:31:45,160 Speaker 1: have spent the better part of today's show, as I 1655 01:31:45,240 --> 01:31:47,599 Speaker 1: know the guys did in the morning as well this morning, 1656 01:31:47,680 --> 01:31:49,400 Speaker 1: and again you heard James Boyd would be back with 1657 01:31:49,479 --> 01:31:52,800 Speaker 1: them tomorrow. Of course he was traveling back after yesterday's 1658 01:31:52,840 --> 01:31:59,960 Speaker 1: game this morning. But the reality is, if the Cold 1659 01:32:00,600 --> 01:32:04,640 Speaker 1: go on to whatever they do this season, and you 1660 01:32:04,720 --> 01:32:08,920 Speaker 1: look back on you know, you always have on the sitcoms. 1661 01:32:10,640 --> 01:32:13,519 Speaker 1: You could always tell when a sitcom was towards the 1662 01:32:13,600 --> 01:32:15,800 Speaker 1: end of its run and was desperate or whatever else, 1663 01:32:15,840 --> 01:32:19,000 Speaker 1: when they'd had the episode where the family sits around 1664 01:32:19,040 --> 01:32:21,240 Speaker 1: and goes over a photo album and they show highlights 1665 01:32:21,280 --> 01:32:24,559 Speaker 1: over the course of the history of the show, funny moments, 1666 01:32:24,600 --> 01:32:27,120 Speaker 1: you know, the best of that kind of thing. And 1667 01:32:27,960 --> 01:32:31,640 Speaker 1: the Colts yearbook when you look back on it, no 1668 01:32:31,720 --> 01:32:35,040 Speaker 1: matter what happens moving forward, when you talk about the 1669 01:32:35,120 --> 01:32:37,320 Speaker 1: Rams game, it's going to be the Ady Mitchell game. 1670 01:32:38,560 --> 01:32:40,920 Speaker 1: Just the reality. Yeah, there were a lot of things 1671 01:32:40,960 --> 01:32:42,400 Speaker 1: that we can nitpick in, a lot of things we 1672 01:32:42,479 --> 01:32:47,080 Speaker 1: can be positive about. I actually find silver linings yesterday. 1673 01:32:48,880 --> 01:32:51,280 Speaker 1: I find a silver lining in this. 1674 01:32:53,840 --> 01:32:54,080 Speaker 2: There. 1675 01:32:54,960 --> 01:33:02,519 Speaker 1: You know, Nikua and Stafford Torch the Colts all day long. 1676 01:33:04,000 --> 01:33:07,360 Speaker 1: And Xavier Howard was as Eddie. I believe you called 1677 01:33:07,400 --> 01:33:10,120 Speaker 1: him burnt Toast, correct, I did, Yes, that used to 1678 01:33:10,120 --> 01:33:12,200 Speaker 1: be the nickname we had for Nesby Glasgow in this 1679 01:33:12,320 --> 01:33:14,599 Speaker 1: town at one time, or Eugene Daniels back in the day, 1680 01:33:14,680 --> 01:33:18,439 Speaker 1: but or Greg Toler, Greig Toler Man, there's a name 1681 01:33:18,479 --> 01:33:22,360 Speaker 1: from the past. But if you look at the Colts 1682 01:33:22,560 --> 01:33:25,920 Speaker 1: yesterday in the areas where they were deficient, this is 1683 01:33:25,960 --> 01:33:30,960 Speaker 1: the silver lining. It's players that are there out of 1684 01:33:31,120 --> 01:33:34,400 Speaker 1: necessity and that weren't necessarily even players that were on 1685 01:33:34,520 --> 01:33:37,120 Speaker 1: the roster at the beginning of the year, but due 1686 01:33:37,120 --> 01:33:41,040 Speaker 1: to attrition. You know, Jalen Jones is out and Kenny 1687 01:33:41,080 --> 01:33:47,599 Speaker 1: Moore is out, and so you had Howard getting torched. 1688 01:33:48,000 --> 01:33:50,840 Speaker 1: For example. You had Mike Hilton, who you know, he 1689 01:33:50,960 --> 01:33:52,960 Speaker 1: made he was in the right spot on a couple 1690 01:33:53,000 --> 01:33:55,560 Speaker 1: of occasions, but again a guy that is brought in 1691 01:33:55,680 --> 01:33:58,479 Speaker 1: because he was familiar with lou Anarrumo's defense. And then 1692 01:33:58,560 --> 01:34:02,400 Speaker 1: you had a situation where Enerumo in a critical moment, 1693 01:34:02,479 --> 01:34:04,160 Speaker 1: only had ten players on the field. 1694 01:34:04,080 --> 01:34:06,200 Speaker 7: And it looked like Jake that Mike Hilton was the 1695 01:34:06,240 --> 01:34:07,800 Speaker 7: guy that was supposed to be out there that was 1696 01:34:07,920 --> 01:34:09,719 Speaker 7: not on the field as the eleventh player. 1697 01:34:09,960 --> 01:34:14,280 Speaker 1: So again you give a little bit of a reprieve. 1698 01:34:14,400 --> 01:34:17,200 Speaker 1: I guess in the fact of Okay, there's there's an 1699 01:34:17,240 --> 01:34:21,000 Speaker 1: acquaintance period, a reacquainting period there or these are guys 1700 01:34:21,120 --> 01:34:24,400 Speaker 1: that you are not, presumably in the thick of the 1701 01:34:24,520 --> 01:34:27,080 Speaker 1: year assuming and I know that injuries are like the 1702 01:34:27,160 --> 01:34:29,880 Speaker 1: dal Jones. I mean it's up and down. But if 1703 01:34:29,920 --> 01:34:32,120 Speaker 1: you're going full strength, these are not players that you're 1704 01:34:32,200 --> 01:34:37,880 Speaker 1: counting on. And that also goes to Adie Mitchell because 1705 01:34:38,000 --> 01:34:41,160 Speaker 1: you forget that Alec Pierce was not available, and so 1706 01:34:41,280 --> 01:34:46,760 Speaker 1: therefore Mitchell gets more looks and it was seemingly kind 1707 01:34:46,840 --> 01:34:51,360 Speaker 1: of his breakout, but he had three catches. He had 1708 01:34:51,439 --> 01:34:54,680 Speaker 1: two to the point of that disastrous play where he 1709 01:34:54,800 --> 01:35:01,439 Speaker 1: dropped the football and then he had the costly penalty. 1710 01:35:03,080 --> 01:35:06,120 Speaker 1: But you can sit there and say we can't win 1711 01:35:07,320 --> 01:35:09,400 Speaker 1: if we have to be relying on this guy. Well, 1712 01:35:09,720 --> 01:35:12,240 Speaker 1: you presumably aren't gonna have to be overly reliant on 1713 01:35:12,360 --> 01:35:15,400 Speaker 1: him for much longer, because Alec Pierce eventually will be back. 1714 01:35:16,080 --> 01:35:20,920 Speaker 1: But when you look at the situation with Alec Pierce, 1715 01:35:21,640 --> 01:35:23,720 Speaker 1: and I mentioned this with Chap about an hour ago, 1716 01:35:23,800 --> 01:35:27,639 Speaker 1: but I'll bring it back up the thirty for thirty 1717 01:35:27,680 --> 01:35:30,599 Speaker 1: that was done on bo Jackson. I've said this numerous times. 1718 01:35:32,040 --> 01:35:35,920 Speaker 1: Bo Jackson is probably my all time favorite athlete because 1719 01:35:35,960 --> 01:35:40,080 Speaker 1: he was in his prime and was a marquee cultural 1720 01:35:40,280 --> 01:35:42,519 Speaker 1: phenomenal icon at the time that I was at my 1721 01:35:42,600 --> 01:35:46,240 Speaker 1: most impressionable, you know, high school years, that kind of thing, 1722 01:35:46,880 --> 01:35:50,920 Speaker 1: and Bo Nos and all of that. And when they 1723 01:35:50,960 --> 01:35:52,960 Speaker 1: did the thirty for thirty on Bo Jackson, I loved 1724 01:35:53,000 --> 01:35:54,880 Speaker 1: it for that reason. But the one thing where it 1725 01:35:55,080 --> 01:35:57,320 Speaker 1: just always drove me nuts where I thought they aired 1726 01:35:58,040 --> 01:36:01,960 Speaker 1: was the middle of the documentary about Bo Jackson, they 1727 01:36:02,000 --> 01:36:04,160 Speaker 1: talk about the big moneynet football game that he had 1728 01:36:04,320 --> 01:36:09,320 Speaker 1: in Seattle where he ran over Brian Bosworth and that 1729 01:36:09,479 --> 01:36:11,760 Speaker 1: was the defining moment of his career, no question, as 1730 01:36:11,760 --> 01:36:15,800 Speaker 1: a football player. But in that game also he had 1731 01:36:16,960 --> 01:36:19,439 Speaker 1: the I think it was eighty two yard touchdown run 1732 01:36:19,520 --> 01:36:23,599 Speaker 1: where he turned the corner and the entire Seahawk defense 1733 01:36:23,680 --> 01:36:25,920 Speaker 1: had the angle on him, including Kenny Easley, who was 1734 01:36:26,040 --> 01:36:29,559 Speaker 1: an all pro level player, and Bo Jackson smoked all 1735 01:36:29,600 --> 01:36:32,559 Speaker 1: of them and it wasn't close. And then he ran 1736 01:36:32,680 --> 01:36:35,160 Speaker 1: into the tunnel and Al Michaels, you know, and Dan 1737 01:36:35,280 --> 01:36:37,240 Speaker 1: Diardore from they're laughing and they're like, he just went 1738 01:36:37,320 --> 01:36:40,560 Speaker 1: past Takoma, you know, where the Raiders are going in 1739 01:36:40,640 --> 01:36:43,920 Speaker 1: to look for him. And I always thought that where 1740 01:36:44,000 --> 01:36:47,080 Speaker 1: that documentary aired is there is no play for a 1741 01:36:47,280 --> 01:36:51,240 Speaker 1: player in their career that more personifies who and what 1742 01:36:51,439 --> 01:36:54,960 Speaker 1: they were than that, because just when you realized what 1743 01:36:55,120 --> 01:36:59,040 Speaker 1: you had seen, he was gone and that was exactly 1744 01:36:59,479 --> 01:37:03,600 Speaker 1: his career. And yesterday, that play with Ady Mitchell was 1745 01:37:03,720 --> 01:37:08,519 Speaker 1: exactly that potential moment. Because it is entirely possible. I 1746 01:37:08,560 --> 01:37:13,080 Speaker 1: don't think it's probable, but it's possible that we will 1747 01:37:13,120 --> 01:37:16,840 Speaker 1: look back even a year from now and say that 1748 01:37:17,160 --> 01:37:24,160 Speaker 1: play absolutely personified Ady Mitchell because it wrapped everything into one. 1749 01:37:25,640 --> 01:37:28,200 Speaker 1: When Ady Mitchell was selected and I said ten was 1750 01:37:28,200 --> 01:37:33,759 Speaker 1: a big number. Yesterday, I believe the penalty where Mitchell 1751 01:37:33,800 --> 01:37:36,200 Speaker 1: got called for the hold that negated Jonathan Taylor's big 1752 01:37:36,280 --> 01:37:38,040 Speaker 1: run was the tenth penalty of the day. They had 1753 01:37:38,040 --> 01:37:41,759 Speaker 1: eleven total. There were ten men on the field, not eleven. 1754 01:37:41,920 --> 01:37:45,360 Speaker 1: When they needed that big stop and La scored that touchdown, 1755 01:37:46,840 --> 01:37:53,479 Speaker 1: they had the play holding on number ten. And yes, 1756 01:37:53,560 --> 01:37:55,680 Speaker 1: you could make the argument that Jonathan Taylor would not 1757 01:37:55,720 --> 01:37:57,479 Speaker 1: have had a touchdown on that run if not for 1758 01:37:57,560 --> 01:38:01,360 Speaker 1: the hold. I get it. But and Ady Mitchell, wait 1759 01:38:01,479 --> 01:38:05,800 Speaker 1: for it, had ten wide receivers taken before him. A 1760 01:38:05,920 --> 01:38:09,439 Speaker 1: year ago when he came into the draft. But here's 1761 01:38:09,439 --> 01:38:11,960 Speaker 1: a guy that was a two time national champion in 1762 01:38:12,080 --> 01:38:15,320 Speaker 1: college that played for two of the biggest programs in 1763 01:38:15,360 --> 01:38:22,800 Speaker 1: college football. That is great speed, good size, and ten 1764 01:38:22,880 --> 01:38:29,080 Speaker 1: wide receivers went before him. And the reason that is 1765 01:38:29,400 --> 01:38:31,960 Speaker 1: we were told is when they drafted him, we were 1766 01:38:32,000 --> 01:38:35,920 Speaker 1: told repeatedly, no, listen, this guy has all the skills, 1767 01:38:36,800 --> 01:38:39,360 Speaker 1: He has all the talent in the world. He has 1768 01:38:39,520 --> 01:38:42,800 Speaker 1: everything you're looking for. He jumped out at us on tape. 1769 01:38:42,880 --> 01:38:47,160 Speaker 1: He had a wonderful combine, but there were question marks 1770 01:38:47,240 --> 01:38:51,160 Speaker 1: from other teams about him because of lack of And 1771 01:38:51,320 --> 01:38:53,920 Speaker 1: I'm not saying a bad guy. I'm not saying he's 1772 01:38:53,960 --> 01:38:57,120 Speaker 1: walking around the Colts Complex firing whipper snappers at people. 1773 01:38:57,800 --> 01:38:59,920 Speaker 1: I'm not saying that he puts whoope cushions on people 1774 01:39:00,400 --> 01:39:02,600 Speaker 1: seat when they sit down at lunch. And I'm not 1775 01:39:02,680 --> 01:39:06,200 Speaker 1: saying that he's not that he has to study extra 1776 01:39:06,280 --> 01:39:09,000 Speaker 1: hours for his driver's exam. I don't know anything about 1777 01:39:09,080 --> 01:39:12,799 Speaker 1: him as in terms of his character or his intellect 1778 01:39:12,880 --> 01:39:13,679 Speaker 1: or any of those things. 1779 01:39:13,920 --> 01:39:14,600 Speaker 3: I just know this. 1780 01:39:15,520 --> 01:39:17,880 Speaker 1: I know that when he came into the league, the 1781 01:39:18,240 --> 01:39:21,680 Speaker 1: scouting report book on Ady Mitchell was that he was 1782 01:39:22,120 --> 01:39:28,200 Speaker 1: still immature and lacked focus, that he didn't have the 1783 01:39:28,320 --> 01:39:33,920 Speaker 1: attention to detail necessary to be an every down reliable 1784 01:39:34,000 --> 01:39:38,840 Speaker 1: receiver in the National Football League, but everything else was there. 1785 01:39:40,560 --> 01:39:42,560 Speaker 1: And it's like I said earlier, it's like when you 1786 01:39:42,680 --> 01:39:47,519 Speaker 1: buy a car that looks as sleek, if not more sleek, 1787 01:39:47,560 --> 01:39:50,320 Speaker 1: than every other car on the lot, and it's got 1788 01:39:50,520 --> 01:39:53,439 Speaker 1: the and it's coming out and it's it's coming out 1789 01:39:53,479 --> 01:39:55,880 Speaker 1: of one of the best manufacturing plants. It's got the 1790 01:39:55,960 --> 01:40:00,479 Speaker 1: name recognition, it's sleek as hell, it's got a good 1791 01:40:00,560 --> 01:40:02,479 Speaker 1: looking code of paint on it, and you're like, why 1792 01:40:02,520 --> 01:40:05,439 Speaker 1: in the world is this car fifteen percent less expensive 1793 01:40:05,439 --> 01:40:07,240 Speaker 1: than every other car in the lot. This is the 1794 01:40:07,360 --> 01:40:11,080 Speaker 1: deal of all deals. So you get it, and then 1795 01:40:11,840 --> 01:40:15,400 Speaker 1: twenty thousand miles into it, it sprays radiator fluid all 1796 01:40:15,439 --> 01:40:17,560 Speaker 1: over four sixty five and you're left calling triple A 1797 01:40:18,040 --> 01:40:19,599 Speaker 1: and you're like, well, now, I guess I see why 1798 01:40:19,640 --> 01:40:22,519 Speaker 1: the car was available at that price. And in eighty 1799 01:40:22,600 --> 01:40:26,200 Speaker 1: Mitchell's case, that play personified everything we've been told about 1800 01:40:26,280 --> 01:40:29,680 Speaker 1: him because he makes that spin, he makes essentially a 1801 01:40:29,800 --> 01:40:33,400 Speaker 1: one hint of grab, spins his body away where I 1802 01:40:33,479 --> 01:40:36,880 Speaker 1: think even he was surprised that he got away, and 1803 01:40:36,960 --> 01:40:38,920 Speaker 1: then he takes off down the sideline and you're like, whoa, 1804 01:40:38,960 --> 01:40:42,120 Speaker 1: look at this speed, and he's gone, and you're like, 1805 01:40:42,240 --> 01:40:45,960 Speaker 1: there it is. There's the reason the Colts have been patient. 1806 01:40:46,960 --> 01:40:49,280 Speaker 1: There's the reason the Colts sold us on why they 1807 01:40:49,400 --> 01:40:54,640 Speaker 1: drafted him. There's the reason why, like Reggie Wayne, his 1808 01:40:54,840 --> 01:40:58,360 Speaker 1: position coach, we were told that once it breaks out 1809 01:40:58,400 --> 01:41:00,519 Speaker 1: of its shell, it's going to break out of a shell. 1810 01:41:00,640 --> 01:41:04,680 Speaker 1: And literally it is going to be like the caterpillar 1811 01:41:04,760 --> 01:41:07,160 Speaker 1: coming out of the cocoon that's now a gorgeous butterfly, 1812 01:41:08,520 --> 01:41:12,360 Speaker 1: and watch it float. And just as you're thinking that, 1813 01:41:13,920 --> 01:41:18,280 Speaker 1: every reason why we were hesitant flashes before our eyes. 1814 01:41:19,200 --> 01:41:23,040 Speaker 1: He doesn't have the focus to finish and get to 1815 01:41:23,120 --> 01:41:26,720 Speaker 1: the finish line. He doesn't have the maturity to run 1816 01:41:26,840 --> 01:41:29,479 Speaker 1: all the way through the end zone before holding up 1817 01:41:29,520 --> 01:41:32,080 Speaker 1: the football, or whatever it was that he was decided. 1818 01:41:32,120 --> 01:41:33,680 Speaker 1: I don't know that anybody asked like, what were you 1819 01:41:33,800 --> 01:41:36,680 Speaker 1: trying to do? You're wide open, there's no one around you. 1820 01:41:36,760 --> 01:41:38,439 Speaker 1: You don't need to change hands, you don't need to 1821 01:41:38,479 --> 01:41:40,200 Speaker 1: pull the tony door set and move it over to 1822 01:41:40,240 --> 01:41:41,960 Speaker 1: your right hand, because you know the defense is coming 1823 01:41:42,000 --> 01:41:45,080 Speaker 1: from the left. Was he getting ready to And I'm 1824 01:41:45,080 --> 01:41:46,880 Speaker 1: wearing the shirt today. Somebody asked where. 1825 01:41:46,720 --> 01:41:47,080 Speaker 2: I got it. 1826 01:41:47,600 --> 01:41:49,680 Speaker 1: I honestly don't remember where I got it, but my 1827 01:41:49,880 --> 01:41:53,760 Speaker 1: USFL Memphis Showboats shirt. I didn't even wear it intentionally. 1828 01:41:55,360 --> 01:42:00,040 Speaker 1: But the Colts got beat for showboating yesterday. But and 1829 01:42:00,080 --> 01:42:01,720 Speaker 1: I'm going to look right here in this camera where 1830 01:42:01,840 --> 01:42:03,760 Speaker 1: chiefs fan Steve said, I've been squinting too much and 1831 01:42:03,840 --> 01:42:05,599 Speaker 1: I need to wear my glasses. Maybe I could even 1832 01:42:05,640 --> 01:42:06,680 Speaker 1: put my glasses. 1833 01:42:06,320 --> 01:42:06,680 Speaker 3: On for it. 1834 01:42:06,760 --> 01:42:08,839 Speaker 7: Why don't you smile for the camera so you're not squinting. 1835 01:42:08,880 --> 01:42:09,479 Speaker 3: There you go. 1836 01:42:13,080 --> 01:42:15,200 Speaker 1: You can hear those numbers spiking right now. By the way, 1837 01:42:15,240 --> 01:42:19,160 Speaker 1: I was in an event on Friday night and female 1838 01:42:19,200 --> 01:42:22,480 Speaker 1: listeners thirty one and thirty two made their acquaintce. 1839 01:42:22,120 --> 01:42:24,679 Speaker 7: Okay, hold on, hold on, how'd we go from potentially 1840 01:42:24,800 --> 01:42:27,439 Speaker 7: twenty six to flubbing in? And I was like, no, 1841 01:42:27,520 --> 01:42:29,360 Speaker 7: I'm Adam, and we've got twenty eight to thirty one. 1842 01:42:29,400 --> 01:42:32,080 Speaker 1: I think it's actually probably thirty. We're probably capping it 1843 01:42:32,080 --> 01:42:34,720 Speaker 1: at thirty. So I have my glasses on now to 1844 01:42:34,760 --> 01:42:36,400 Speaker 1: say this to Ady Mitchell as I look at the camera, 1845 01:42:37,479 --> 01:42:43,880 Speaker 1: Adie mitchell Son, it's not your fault. It's not your fault. 1846 01:42:45,360 --> 01:42:47,679 Speaker 1: It was not your fault that you dropped that football 1847 01:42:48,200 --> 01:42:52,800 Speaker 1: prematurely and cost yourself your first career touchdown. It's not 1848 01:42:52,960 --> 01:42:55,519 Speaker 1: your fault that you dropped that football and cost the 1849 01:42:55,600 --> 01:42:59,439 Speaker 1: Colts seven points and on a critical play where Jonathan 1850 01:42:59,479 --> 01:43:02,519 Speaker 1: Taylor broke free and look like perhaps the Colts put 1851 01:43:02,560 --> 01:43:04,439 Speaker 1: it in the bag or at least put themselves in 1852 01:43:04,520 --> 01:43:07,400 Speaker 1: the driver's seat, and it was negated because of your 1853 01:43:08,120 --> 01:43:13,200 Speaker 1: holding penalty. It's not your fault. When we look back 1854 01:43:13,200 --> 01:43:14,680 Speaker 1: at the fact the Colts are three and one, and 1855 01:43:14,720 --> 01:43:18,439 Speaker 1: who would not take that They're three and one, They 1856 01:43:20,400 --> 01:43:23,760 Speaker 1: the football gods maybe balanced things out a little bit. 1857 01:43:24,080 --> 01:43:26,280 Speaker 1: In the words of mister Hand, they had the unique 1858 01:43:26,439 --> 01:43:30,719 Speaker 1: occasion to square the account because what are you people 1859 01:43:31,320 --> 01:43:35,720 Speaker 1: on dope? Because the Denver Broncos, we forget, had their 1860 01:43:35,800 --> 01:43:37,519 Speaker 1: moment where they were on dope and they had a 1861 01:43:37,720 --> 01:43:41,880 Speaker 1: dopey leverage penalty that gave the Colts another chance for 1862 01:43:41,920 --> 01:43:45,800 Speaker 1: Spencer Schrader to win that game. And they should have been. 1863 01:43:46,520 --> 01:43:49,200 Speaker 1: They should have been. In fact, Al Michael's still incredulous 1864 01:43:49,240 --> 01:43:51,840 Speaker 1: over what that is. What if they they should have 1865 01:43:51,960 --> 01:43:57,360 Speaker 1: been coming into yesterday two and one we get it, 1866 01:43:59,080 --> 01:44:01,040 Speaker 1: but they went in against a really good Rams team 1867 01:44:01,120 --> 01:44:03,360 Speaker 1: and you have to be encouraged by the fact that 1868 01:44:04,200 --> 01:44:07,880 Speaker 1: they should have won that game, But would it could have? 1869 01:44:07,880 --> 01:44:10,760 Speaker 1: Should I get it right? If Ibsen butts were candy 1870 01:44:10,800 --> 01:44:13,599 Speaker 1: and nuts, we'd all have a merry Christmas, Ady Mitchell. 1871 01:44:13,680 --> 01:44:23,280 Speaker 1: It's not your fault that yesterday lapse was the fault 1872 01:44:24,479 --> 01:44:30,439 Speaker 1: of around you, some sort of a weird vibe. I'm 1873 01:44:30,479 --> 01:44:33,519 Speaker 1: not saying locker room wide, but in a culture that 1874 01:44:33,600 --> 01:44:37,759 Speaker 1: has enabled you to that point because your star running 1875 01:44:37,840 --> 01:44:41,120 Speaker 1: back teammate, an all Pro level player, one of the 1876 01:44:41,200 --> 01:44:43,760 Speaker 1: best at his position in the National Football League, did 1877 01:44:43,840 --> 01:44:47,080 Speaker 1: the exact same thing a year ago that cost your 1878 01:44:47,120 --> 01:44:51,639 Speaker 1: team possibly a postseason birth. And yet one would think 1879 01:44:51,720 --> 01:44:54,120 Speaker 1: that that would mean that the management level and the 1880 01:44:54,160 --> 01:44:57,560 Speaker 1: coaching level would have absolutely had every one of you 1881 01:44:57,680 --> 01:45:00,639 Speaker 1: guys every single day going over on on the repeated 1882 01:45:00,720 --> 01:45:04,519 Speaker 1: regular basis where any franchise in the NFL was capable 1883 01:45:04,560 --> 01:45:06,400 Speaker 1: of that kind of a mistake. Again, but there's no 1884 01:45:06,600 --> 01:45:09,160 Speaker 1: way in God's green earth that's gonna happen for the 1885 01:45:09,240 --> 01:45:12,760 Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts. And yet it appears as though that was 1886 01:45:12,840 --> 01:45:16,120 Speaker 1: not the case. That was not and yes I know 1887 01:45:16,280 --> 01:45:19,040 Speaker 1: you said that, Shane Steiken's mentioned it, but that apparently 1888 01:45:19,200 --> 01:45:22,800 Speaker 1: was not preached enough. And it's not your fault, Adi Mitchell, 1889 01:45:22,880 --> 01:45:27,400 Speaker 1: because when the Colts drafted you and other teams and 1890 01:45:27,600 --> 01:45:31,519 Speaker 1: other people were saying, there's question marks here, there's red flags. 1891 01:45:32,600 --> 01:45:35,720 Speaker 1: We were told no red flags, just a caution one, 1892 01:45:35,880 --> 01:45:38,760 Speaker 1: just a yellow flag meaning proceed with caution. But it's 1893 01:45:38,840 --> 01:45:42,479 Speaker 1: all gonna work out. It's gonna be fine. Just be patient. 1894 01:45:42,560 --> 01:45:44,800 Speaker 1: It's gonna work out. And maybe it still does. He 1895 01:45:44,960 --> 01:45:50,920 Speaker 1: did show flash yesterday. But what we saw yesterday, at 1896 01:45:51,040 --> 01:45:54,439 Speaker 1: least in the case of this particular player, was zero 1897 01:45:54,560 --> 01:46:00,600 Speaker 1: accountability to this point, none, and in a franchise that 1898 01:46:01,320 --> 01:46:04,960 Speaker 1: to this point is having their season put back onto 1899 01:46:05,040 --> 01:46:09,160 Speaker 1: the right side of things by a quarterback who is 1900 01:46:09,280 --> 01:46:12,320 Speaker 1: replacing the one where there was really no accountability for 1901 01:46:12,520 --> 01:46:15,080 Speaker 1: him because Anthony Richardson took himself out of the game, 1902 01:46:15,160 --> 01:46:17,240 Speaker 1: and yes, he then got benched for it, and I 1903 01:46:17,320 --> 01:46:20,280 Speaker 1: credit Shane Stikeen there, but ultimately they handed the keys 1904 01:46:20,360 --> 01:46:23,240 Speaker 1: back to him and they basically have said all along, no, no, no, 1905 01:46:23,560 --> 01:46:26,160 Speaker 1: we still believe we still are going to be patient. 1906 01:46:28,160 --> 01:46:32,439 Speaker 1: Ady Mitchell knew going into that game yesterday, to this point, 1907 01:46:32,560 --> 01:46:35,840 Speaker 1: there has not been accountability for him, and I don't 1908 01:46:35,840 --> 01:46:37,559 Speaker 1: think they should release him. There are people that say 1909 01:46:37,600 --> 01:46:39,360 Speaker 1: that they got to cut Adie Mitchell. I'm not saying that, 1910 01:46:39,760 --> 01:46:42,839 Speaker 1: but I think the thing that was the most brilliant 1911 01:46:42,960 --> 01:46:46,000 Speaker 1: is when I asked people to send me their four 1912 01:46:46,080 --> 01:46:50,320 Speaker 1: words to describe what the cold season looks like so far, 1913 01:46:50,760 --> 01:46:56,040 Speaker 1: the most common answer was better than I expected, get it. 1914 01:46:57,720 --> 01:46:59,799 Speaker 1: But the one that I thought was the most brilliant 1915 01:46:59,800 --> 01:47:05,519 Speaker 1: one ad got ap paid. And that's probably true because 1916 01:47:05,560 --> 01:47:08,639 Speaker 1: Alec Pierce is in a contract year and now boom, 1917 01:47:10,000 --> 01:47:12,600 Speaker 1: we see more than ever how important he's going to be, 1918 01:47:12,680 --> 01:47:15,760 Speaker 1: because we how much longer can we wait? We show 1919 01:47:15,960 --> 01:47:20,280 Speaker 1: we saw yesterday the physical gift is there. But now 1920 01:47:20,360 --> 01:47:22,920 Speaker 1: you wonder how ad Mitchell responds from that, because not 1921 01:47:23,040 --> 01:47:26,519 Speaker 1: once but twice, and he looked like a guy that 1922 01:47:26,760 --> 01:47:28,559 Speaker 1: was a deer in the headlights. After that, he made 1923 01:47:28,560 --> 01:47:30,880 Speaker 1: a big play for them on that final drive. But 1924 01:47:32,880 --> 01:47:34,880 Speaker 1: you do wonder what that's going to do for him, 1925 01:47:35,479 --> 01:47:37,479 Speaker 1: and what that's going to do and their belief and 1926 01:47:37,680 --> 01:47:39,559 Speaker 1: I know they can say that they still believe in him, 1927 01:47:41,479 --> 01:47:44,599 Speaker 1: but that was a pretty big, pretty big blunder. Two 1928 01:47:44,640 --> 01:47:47,360 Speaker 1: of them, but you still have to be in the 1929 01:47:47,479 --> 01:47:53,600 Speaker 1: big in the big picture. In the big picture, you 1930 01:47:53,760 --> 01:47:58,240 Speaker 1: have to be encouraged because they're three and one. They 1931 01:47:58,320 --> 01:48:00,920 Speaker 1: went into a game in Los Angeles against what I 1932 01:48:01,000 --> 01:48:03,160 Speaker 1: think most of us believe is a really good team, 1933 01:48:03,320 --> 01:48:07,280 Speaker 1: and if you had to break it down into qure tiles, 1934 01:48:08,000 --> 01:48:09,479 Speaker 1: what core tile are the La. 1935 01:48:09,479 --> 01:48:12,879 Speaker 7: Rams, I would put them in the upper quartile. 1936 01:48:13,600 --> 01:48:15,439 Speaker 1: I mean, I think most people think they are one 1937 01:48:15,479 --> 01:48:16,760 Speaker 1: of the better teams in the league. 1938 01:48:16,840 --> 01:48:16,960 Speaker 3: Right. 1939 01:48:17,080 --> 01:48:23,880 Speaker 7: Yeah, they were my NFC Super Bowl pick fair going 1940 01:48:23,880 --> 01:48:24,720 Speaker 7: into the season. 1941 01:48:24,560 --> 01:48:29,240 Speaker 1: And for the Colts and the Colts, the Rams didn't 1942 01:48:29,280 --> 01:48:33,679 Speaker 1: win that game. The Colts lost it, and so yeah, 1943 01:48:33,760 --> 01:48:35,439 Speaker 1: you can look at that and go, man, what could have? 1944 01:48:35,439 --> 01:48:37,840 Speaker 1: Should have? But then you look at the schedule and 1945 01:48:37,960 --> 01:48:41,200 Speaker 1: it's pretty favorable. Where it's not. It doesn't feel like 1946 01:48:41,400 --> 01:48:43,200 Speaker 1: now now that we are a quarter of the way 1947 01:48:43,240 --> 01:48:45,439 Speaker 1: into the season, for I mean, I know it's seventeen, 1948 01:48:45,520 --> 01:48:48,720 Speaker 1: not sixteen, but essentially a quarter of the way. There 1949 01:48:48,760 --> 01:48:51,920 Speaker 1: were in turn one of the season, and it's a 1950 01:48:52,040 --> 01:48:56,120 Speaker 1: long year and a lot could happen, but the schedule 1951 01:48:56,240 --> 01:48:58,920 Speaker 1: looks far less arduous than it did at the beginning 1952 01:48:58,960 --> 01:49:01,880 Speaker 1: of the year. Now it's not as now you look 1953 01:49:01,960 --> 01:49:04,080 Speaker 1: at it and you're looking for places where you would 1954 01:49:04,120 --> 01:49:07,880 Speaker 1: not expect them to win. I mean, going in and 1955 01:49:07,920 --> 01:49:09,639 Speaker 1: playing the Chargers in LA is going to be tough, 1956 01:49:09,920 --> 01:49:12,640 Speaker 1: going to Arrowhead is going to be tough, and maybe 1957 01:49:12,880 --> 01:49:15,880 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh's gonna be tough. But outside of that, every other 1958 01:49:15,960 --> 01:49:18,320 Speaker 1: game you kind of expect them to win. At this 1959 01:49:18,439 --> 01:49:23,880 Speaker 1: point long year, I realize what team is it right now, Eddie? 1960 01:49:23,960 --> 01:49:27,559 Speaker 1: That we are four games in, a couple of them 1961 01:49:27,600 --> 01:49:31,240 Speaker 1: still to be played tonight, but we do this at 1962 01:49:31,240 --> 01:49:34,680 Speaker 1: the beginning of the year. Give me the team that 1963 01:49:34,840 --> 01:49:36,280 Speaker 1: deep down you're like, are they good? 1964 01:49:36,840 --> 01:49:37,440 Speaker 7: Jacksonville? 1965 01:49:38,280 --> 01:49:41,400 Speaker 1: Okay? Fair tied with the Colts right now? Right three 1966 01:49:41,479 --> 01:49:41,760 Speaker 1: and one? 1967 01:49:41,920 --> 01:49:44,639 Speaker 7: They should they could should be four. And though their 1968 01:49:44,680 --> 01:49:46,639 Speaker 7: only loss was that game where Joe Burrow gets hurting, 1969 01:49:46,960 --> 01:49:50,880 Speaker 7: Jake Brannon comes in and wins. That's their only loss. 1970 01:49:51,280 --> 01:49:54,360 Speaker 7: They won against the forty nine ers yesterday. 1971 01:49:54,479 --> 01:49:58,160 Speaker 1: I'll give you one, Seattle at three and one. 1972 01:49:58,720 --> 01:49:59,439 Speaker 7: Yeah, that's another one. 1973 01:49:59,600 --> 01:49:59,960 Speaker 1: Are they good? 1974 01:50:01,320 --> 01:50:01,640 Speaker 3: I don't know. 1975 01:50:01,720 --> 01:50:03,599 Speaker 1: Are they good? You know what I mean? Okay? Now 1976 01:50:03,760 --> 01:50:05,599 Speaker 1: how about this Chicago? 1977 01:50:05,720 --> 01:50:06,080 Speaker 3: They good? 1978 01:50:07,200 --> 01:50:11,360 Speaker 1: Chicago? Yesterday? Man, I mean they Chicago showed me a 1979 01:50:11,400 --> 01:50:13,439 Speaker 1: little something yesterday because I don't think the Raiders are 1980 01:50:13,560 --> 01:50:17,479 Speaker 1: very good, but the Bears were pretty that they showed 1981 01:50:17,479 --> 01:50:20,960 Speaker 1: a lot of resolve in that game. Now we know 1982 01:50:21,160 --> 01:50:24,559 Speaker 1: that New Orleans is terrible, We know that Carolina is dreadful, 1983 01:50:24,760 --> 01:50:31,120 Speaker 1: we know that Tennessee is terrible. But give me the 1984 01:50:31,200 --> 01:50:34,080 Speaker 1: two teams that you're like, are they not very good? 1985 01:50:35,840 --> 01:50:40,240 Speaker 1: Are they in trouble? Well, there's a big one. Baltimore 1986 01:50:40,400 --> 01:50:42,840 Speaker 1: for sure, for sure, and now Lamar Jackson's got a 1987 01:50:42,880 --> 01:50:44,760 Speaker 1: hamstring injury, So you wonder what the future is there? 1988 01:50:44,880 --> 01:50:46,200 Speaker 1: Not the future, but you know what I mean, what 1989 01:50:46,320 --> 01:50:50,080 Speaker 1: the what the immediacy is going to be there? It 1990 01:50:50,280 --> 01:50:52,960 Speaker 1: is Washington. Washington's hard to say because Daniels is hurt, 1991 01:50:53,000 --> 01:50:56,680 Speaker 1: but they're two and two, right. I thought green Bay 1992 01:50:56,720 --> 01:50:59,240 Speaker 1: looked really good last night despite losing that game, because 1993 01:51:00,120 --> 01:51:02,439 Speaker 1: Jordan Love showed me a little something. Their clock management 1994 01:51:02,520 --> 01:51:03,320 Speaker 1: late was terrible. 1995 01:51:03,840 --> 01:51:11,639 Speaker 7: Yeah, but you know, depending on how tonight goes Denver. Yeah, 1996 01:51:12,680 --> 01:51:15,840 Speaker 7: I mean Denver, they play a Cincinnati team that could 1997 01:51:15,880 --> 01:51:19,000 Speaker 7: be out for blood tonight with how poorly they played 1998 01:51:19,040 --> 01:51:21,560 Speaker 7: against Minnesota. It's in Denver, right, I know, That's what 1999 01:51:21,640 --> 01:51:23,960 Speaker 7: I'm saying. If you lose at home to Jake Browning 2000 01:51:24,000 --> 01:51:25,880 Speaker 7: and the Bengals on Monday Night Football. You're now one 2001 01:51:25,880 --> 01:51:27,719 Speaker 7: in three legs. By the way, what's the other game tonight? 2002 01:51:28,600 --> 01:51:30,680 Speaker 1: Do you really want to know? Yes, this is the 2003 01:51:30,760 --> 01:51:34,040 Speaker 1: game I'm telling you now Here's here's the unfortunate thing. 2004 01:51:34,400 --> 01:51:37,200 Speaker 1: The unfortunate thing is that right now, somewhere in the 2005 01:51:37,320 --> 01:51:41,320 Speaker 1: United States there's a maximum security penitentiary where all the 2006 01:51:41,400 --> 01:51:44,080 Speaker 1: guys just found out that because nobody had any sort 2007 01:51:44,080 --> 01:51:46,559 Speaker 1: of a disciplinary issue this week, they're getting to reward, 2008 01:51:46,640 --> 01:51:49,160 Speaker 1: they're getting rewarded, and they're all allowed to watch Monday 2009 01:51:49,200 --> 01:51:52,320 Speaker 1: Night Football. And then they find out that it's this 2010 01:51:52,880 --> 01:51:59,000 Speaker 1: Jets and the Dolphins. Good I mean, first off, just 2011 01:51:59,080 --> 01:52:02,040 Speaker 1: the the the nature of the two ugly like the 2012 01:52:02,160 --> 01:52:05,280 Speaker 1: green uniforms oh and six between the two of them. 2013 01:52:05,360 --> 01:52:07,960 Speaker 7: Right, It's very unfortunate this game is not in New 2014 01:52:08,080 --> 01:52:12,639 Speaker 7: York because we could have an Antonio Brown repeat situation 2015 01:52:12,760 --> 01:52:16,240 Speaker 7: with Tyreek Hill. That's always up for possibility, no question, 2016 01:52:16,360 --> 01:52:18,200 Speaker 7: you know, taking your shirt off, taking the pads off, 2017 01:52:18,320 --> 01:52:19,120 Speaker 7: just run across. 2018 01:52:18,920 --> 01:52:24,000 Speaker 1: The field deuces The game is in Miami though, right, Ah, yes, 2019 01:52:24,080 --> 01:52:25,200 Speaker 1: it's it's in Miami. 2020 01:52:25,280 --> 01:52:25,439 Speaker 9: Yeap. 2021 01:52:25,880 --> 01:52:27,920 Speaker 1: Justin Field is back for the Jets. I did know 2022 01:52:27,960 --> 01:52:30,639 Speaker 1: that coming off concussion protocol, right, yes, yes, yes, yes? 2023 01:52:31,920 --> 01:52:34,080 Speaker 1: Where is Zach Wilson now, by the way, he is 2024 01:52:34,160 --> 01:52:36,680 Speaker 1: the backup in Miami? Is he really? Yes? 2025 01:52:36,760 --> 01:52:37,000 Speaker 3: He is? 2026 01:52:37,680 --> 01:52:40,760 Speaker 1: What a storyline there? Let's go, although it's at home, 2027 01:52:40,840 --> 01:52:42,320 Speaker 1: so it's not like it's returning home, even though two 2028 01:52:42,360 --> 01:52:46,920 Speaker 1: is obviously playing. But nonetheless, the point being, when you 2029 01:52:47,000 --> 01:52:48,880 Speaker 1: look at the AFC, you've got to be happy about 2030 01:52:48,880 --> 01:52:50,400 Speaker 1: the Colts because they're three and one. 2031 01:52:50,920 --> 01:52:52,840 Speaker 7: All three wins against AFC teams too. 2032 01:52:53,080 --> 01:52:54,960 Speaker 1: That's also big, the fact that their loss is to 2033 01:52:55,040 --> 01:52:58,240 Speaker 1: an NFC team, right, that is it's it stings a 2034 01:52:58,240 --> 01:53:03,400 Speaker 1: little less, and you know, it's weird. How weird is 2035 01:53:03,439 --> 01:53:06,240 Speaker 1: it to think that they could be in a situation 2036 01:53:07,600 --> 01:53:11,920 Speaker 1: in late November where they're going into Kansas City and 2037 01:53:12,040 --> 01:53:14,360 Speaker 1: those two are deadlocked, like let's say in a wild 2038 01:53:14,439 --> 01:53:16,960 Speaker 1: card chase. Ye, don't I think in the Colt's case, 2039 01:53:17,000 --> 01:53:18,920 Speaker 1: they're going to be leading the division? But because I 2040 01:53:18,960 --> 01:53:20,720 Speaker 1: think they're going to beat Jacksonville. But to tell you 2041 01:53:20,760 --> 01:53:22,320 Speaker 1: how much of a week to week leak it is? 2042 01:53:24,120 --> 01:53:26,599 Speaker 1: So the Chargers through three weeks looked like the best 2043 01:53:26,640 --> 01:53:27,320 Speaker 1: team in the NFL. 2044 01:53:27,360 --> 01:53:28,960 Speaker 7: They go on the road. They lose to Jackson Dart 2045 01:53:29,040 --> 01:53:31,679 Speaker 7: and the Giants in their first loss. Kansas City bounces 2046 01:53:31,720 --> 01:53:34,439 Speaker 7: back with a dominant win over you know, Baltimore at home, 2047 01:53:34,479 --> 01:53:36,200 Speaker 7: and all of a sudden, it's all, oh, yep, it's 2048 01:53:36,200 --> 01:53:38,880 Speaker 7: still the Chiefs Division. Like, come on, people, like, it's 2049 01:53:38,920 --> 01:53:40,160 Speaker 7: just one bad game for the Chargers. 2050 01:53:40,320 --> 01:53:43,800 Speaker 1: How about, by the way, how about the New York 2051 01:53:43,840 --> 01:53:44,639 Speaker 1: Giants getting a win. 2052 01:53:45,360 --> 01:53:48,920 Speaker 7: They lost Joe Alton that game. That's a Unfortunately for them, 2053 01:53:49,560 --> 01:53:51,640 Speaker 7: it was only a high ankle sprand there there was 2054 01:53:51,720 --> 01:53:54,400 Speaker 7: not a broken bone or anything, so he could be 2055 01:53:54,520 --> 01:53:56,960 Speaker 7: sidelined a couple of weeks. But at least it's not 2056 01:53:57,040 --> 01:53:59,639 Speaker 7: another injured reserve situation because they're already missing their starting 2057 01:53:59,720 --> 01:54:03,120 Speaker 7: left and Rashaun Slater he had that season ending injury 2058 01:54:03,120 --> 01:54:04,880 Speaker 7: in camps and they moved Joelt from right tackle to 2059 01:54:04,960 --> 01:54:07,320 Speaker 7: left tackle. He goes down yesterday. 2060 01:54:07,080 --> 01:54:10,880 Speaker 1: Jackson Dart look pretty good, right, It looked okay, got 2061 01:54:10,920 --> 01:54:12,040 Speaker 1: a little he can run a little bit. 2062 01:54:12,720 --> 01:54:15,400 Speaker 7: You know, hopefully we can get Ralph Refundcuse, I'm fascinated 2063 01:54:15,439 --> 01:54:18,360 Speaker 7: by this, Jake. So Malice Nibbers shows down yesterday with 2064 01:54:18,439 --> 01:54:20,920 Speaker 7: a torn ac out for the year, right, hang at 2065 01:54:21,080 --> 01:54:24,320 Speaker 7: Odell Beckham Junior had some strong words about playing on 2066 01:54:24,479 --> 01:54:27,280 Speaker 7: grass personally, no matter where you're at, instead of turf, 2067 01:54:27,360 --> 01:54:29,640 Speaker 7: because I mean, it's been documented over time and time 2068 01:54:29,680 --> 01:54:33,600 Speaker 7: again how bad the turf is they're at New York, 2069 01:54:33,680 --> 01:54:36,720 Speaker 7: and it should not Injuries like that shouldn't happen. When 2070 01:54:36,760 --> 01:54:38,880 Speaker 7: you're just going up to jump up and go up 2071 01:54:38,920 --> 01:54:41,760 Speaker 7: in the air and you're launching yourself off the ground 2072 01:54:41,840 --> 01:54:43,560 Speaker 7: and that's how you tear your seal like that, that 2073 01:54:43,640 --> 01:54:44,320 Speaker 7: should not happen. 2074 01:54:45,120 --> 01:54:49,720 Speaker 1: The It's amazing to think of the old Hoosier Doom 2075 01:54:49,840 --> 01:54:54,920 Speaker 1: days when literally those guys were playing on concrete within 2076 01:54:55,000 --> 01:54:57,240 Speaker 1: half an inch of foam and then astro turf on 2077 01:54:57,320 --> 01:55:00,360 Speaker 1: top of it. I mean, the number of like just 2078 01:55:00,560 --> 01:55:03,640 Speaker 1: rug burns alone you would get would be awful. Aaron 2079 01:55:03,680 --> 01:55:05,600 Speaker 1: Ne Smith. By the way, did you say he's about 2080 01:55:05,600 --> 01:55:08,040 Speaker 1: to call in double A Yeah, aaron Nesmith. It is 2081 01:55:08,160 --> 01:55:12,480 Speaker 1: Pacers Media Day aaron NEI Smith. Apparently Eddie just got 2082 01:55:12,560 --> 01:55:14,360 Speaker 1: word is going to call us and he's going to 2083 01:55:14,480 --> 01:55:16,520 Speaker 1: do so in just about five minutes, so we will 2084 01:55:16,560 --> 01:55:19,800 Speaker 1: talk to the pacers swinging forward. He has the best shoes, 2085 01:55:19,840 --> 01:55:22,040 Speaker 1: by the way, on the roster, I know that Halliburton 2086 01:55:22,040 --> 01:55:23,880 Speaker 1: has those pumas, but I love the blue and yellow 2087 01:55:23,920 --> 01:55:26,040 Speaker 1: new balance of aaron Ne Smith. But he joins us next, 2088 01:55:27,960 --> 01:55:30,000 Speaker 1: a lot to talk about over the course of today. 2089 01:55:30,160 --> 01:55:32,520 Speaker 1: We'll get back into the Colts and Fever conversation in 2090 01:55:32,600 --> 01:55:35,000 Speaker 1: a minute. But it is also and it is hard 2091 01:55:35,080 --> 01:55:38,320 Speaker 1: to believe this. It is Pacers Media Day, meaning that 2092 01:55:38,400 --> 01:55:41,040 Speaker 1: we are on the cusp of another Pacer season and 2093 01:55:41,120 --> 01:55:43,680 Speaker 1: a guy that is entering his fourth year in Indiana 2094 01:55:44,160 --> 01:55:46,120 Speaker 1: he just hit another three point shot against the New 2095 01:55:46,200 --> 01:55:49,240 Speaker 1: York Knicks. Aaron NEI Smith joins us on the program, aeron, 2096 01:55:49,320 --> 01:55:49,640 Speaker 1: how are you. 2097 01:55:50,560 --> 01:55:51,920 Speaker 3: I'm doing good. How you guys joined? 2098 01:55:52,080 --> 01:55:55,560 Speaker 1: We are well? Thank you listen. It is and this 2099 01:55:55,760 --> 01:55:56,280 Speaker 1: is a good thing. 2100 01:55:56,520 --> 01:55:56,640 Speaker 3: You know. 2101 01:55:56,760 --> 01:55:58,880 Speaker 1: It's a good thing to have the off season be 2102 01:55:59,040 --> 01:56:01,560 Speaker 1: so short because it means that your regular season went 2103 01:56:01,760 --> 01:56:05,280 Speaker 1: so long. But for you, I am curious from a 2104 01:56:05,400 --> 01:56:09,840 Speaker 1: player's standpoint, with the way everything went last year, did 2105 01:56:09,960 --> 01:56:12,840 Speaker 1: and as deep as you guys got, did it cause 2106 01:56:12,960 --> 01:56:16,080 Speaker 1: for acceleration of let's get going? Or is the body 2107 01:56:16,200 --> 01:56:17,320 Speaker 1: still needing more time? 2108 01:56:19,920 --> 01:56:19,960 Speaker 2: No? 2109 01:56:20,240 --> 01:56:21,960 Speaker 3: Actually, I feel like I took the proper amount of 2110 01:56:22,040 --> 01:56:25,760 Speaker 3: time off like normally I take like the amount of 2111 01:56:25,800 --> 01:56:27,480 Speaker 3: normal time I take off on the summer, I just 2112 01:56:27,560 --> 01:56:29,400 Speaker 3: added a week to it, just since we played so 2113 01:56:29,520 --> 01:56:32,600 Speaker 3: far into the season. And then when I started hooping 2114 01:56:32,640 --> 01:56:34,720 Speaker 3: again and working out again, I just scramped it up 2115 01:56:34,720 --> 01:56:35,880 Speaker 3: a little bit quicker than normal. 2116 01:56:36,000 --> 01:56:39,240 Speaker 1: So it all worked out, you know, it was it 2117 01:56:39,360 --> 01:56:43,800 Speaker 1: was such a magical run and you know everything that 2118 01:56:43,960 --> 01:56:46,400 Speaker 1: went with it, and then obviously the way it ended 2119 01:56:46,520 --> 01:56:50,400 Speaker 1: with you know, just and that Game seven will replay 2120 01:56:50,440 --> 01:56:52,880 Speaker 1: that in our heads for a long time and wondering 2121 01:56:52,960 --> 01:56:56,320 Speaker 1: of the what ifs. But from a player's standpoint, I'm 2122 01:56:56,360 --> 01:57:01,080 Speaker 1: curious what is the mindset now of standing the excitement 2123 01:57:01,120 --> 01:57:03,640 Speaker 1: that comes with that, but also the reality of what 2124 01:57:04,040 --> 01:57:06,680 Speaker 1: the year is ahead, and then waiting of course to 2125 01:57:06,760 --> 01:57:08,560 Speaker 1: have kind of everything back in the arsenal. 2126 01:57:09,480 --> 01:57:11,440 Speaker 3: Uh, you got to turn the page. You know, it's 2127 01:57:11,480 --> 01:57:14,360 Speaker 3: a brand new season. You know there's going to be 2128 01:57:14,400 --> 01:57:16,480 Speaker 3: a new champion crown at the end of this year, 2129 01:57:17,240 --> 01:57:20,400 Speaker 3: and you know you gotta start working from that today. 2130 01:57:20,440 --> 01:57:23,360 Speaker 3: It all starts tomorrow and training camp and you know 2131 01:57:23,520 --> 01:57:25,240 Speaker 3: you can just all you could take is really the 2132 01:57:25,360 --> 01:57:28,960 Speaker 3: lessons you learned from last season, you know, the trials 2133 01:57:29,000 --> 01:57:31,440 Speaker 3: and tribulations, to ups and downs and try and have 2134 01:57:31,520 --> 01:57:34,400 Speaker 3: a better start this year and you know, get the 2135 01:57:34,440 --> 01:57:35,320 Speaker 3: ground running. 2136 01:57:35,240 --> 01:57:37,440 Speaker 1: You know, with the you know, obviously with Tyree's out 2137 01:57:37,480 --> 01:57:41,000 Speaker 1: for the year and Miles now in Milwaukee, does does 2138 01:57:41,120 --> 01:57:44,280 Speaker 1: your role change in terms of obviously we know what 2139 01:57:44,480 --> 01:57:47,920 Speaker 1: your position is and you know the starting situation, but 2140 01:57:48,640 --> 01:57:50,920 Speaker 1: in terms of what you need to bring. Do you 2141 01:57:51,080 --> 01:57:52,800 Speaker 1: have to diversify your game at all? 2142 01:57:54,200 --> 01:57:56,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, everybody's got to take a little step up. Everyone's 2143 01:57:56,960 --> 01:57:59,240 Speaker 3: gonna have to do a little bit more. But it's 2144 01:57:59,320 --> 01:58:02,280 Speaker 3: going to be done by committee. You know, five people 2145 01:58:02,360 --> 01:58:05,000 Speaker 3: on the court at one time, So everybody's gonna have 2146 01:58:05,040 --> 01:58:06,840 Speaker 3: to take a little step up in their production and 2147 01:58:06,920 --> 01:58:09,080 Speaker 3: what's asking them. But you know, we're all getting done. 2148 01:58:09,560 --> 01:58:12,320 Speaker 1: Who what teammate is the one that most intrigues you 2149 01:58:12,520 --> 01:58:14,760 Speaker 1: in terms of what you might see from them this year? 2150 01:58:16,720 --> 01:58:18,960 Speaker 3: I believe. I think Jerris Jaris Walker has a real 2151 01:58:19,080 --> 01:58:21,000 Speaker 3: chance to take a leap this year. And you know, 2152 01:58:21,120 --> 01:58:22,960 Speaker 3: he has all the tools and I talked to him 2153 01:58:23,000 --> 01:58:25,280 Speaker 3: about you know, what he did this summer and how 2154 01:58:25,360 --> 01:58:27,400 Speaker 3: much he worked and how much he prepared for this season. 2155 01:58:27,560 --> 01:58:29,840 Speaker 3: I think he's ready for the challenge. As ahead of him. 2156 01:58:30,200 --> 01:58:34,440 Speaker 1: Aaron Nesmith is our guest as the pacers resume and 2157 01:58:34,520 --> 01:58:38,320 Speaker 1: we'll get underway, get everything going here before we know it. 2158 01:58:38,680 --> 01:58:41,440 Speaker 1: And with that, Aaron, when you talk about Jaris Walker, 2159 01:58:42,280 --> 01:58:45,400 Speaker 1: you know your situation being a guy that was in Boston, 2160 01:58:46,240 --> 01:58:49,000 Speaker 1: got you know, buried a little bit there, and then 2161 01:58:49,000 --> 01:58:50,800 Speaker 1: as soon as you got your chance here you really 2162 01:58:50,880 --> 01:58:54,160 Speaker 1: did flourish. What sort of things can you tell young 2163 01:58:54,240 --> 01:58:58,200 Speaker 1: players about that and about seizing that opportunity? And are 2164 01:58:58,280 --> 01:59:00,520 Speaker 1: you the type that would go to them and say, hey, 2165 01:59:00,640 --> 01:59:02,000 Speaker 1: let me tell you what I went through and what 2166 01:59:02,160 --> 01:59:02,640 Speaker 1: worked for me. 2167 01:59:03,680 --> 01:59:05,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I told him, Man, when he first 2168 01:59:05,440 --> 01:59:08,320 Speaker 3: got here, I told him he was in a similar situation. 2169 01:59:08,480 --> 01:59:10,400 Speaker 3: I was in Boston, just guys in front of him, 2170 01:59:10,440 --> 01:59:14,560 Speaker 3: not a big opportunity to play. But always stay ready, 2171 01:59:14,640 --> 01:59:16,440 Speaker 3: be ready, because you never know when your name is 2172 01:59:16,480 --> 01:59:19,560 Speaker 3: going to be called. And whenever you get your opportunity. 2173 01:59:19,800 --> 01:59:23,520 Speaker 3: You know, people say, look is when preparation meets opportunity, 2174 01:59:23,960 --> 01:59:26,320 Speaker 3: And I believe he's prepared for it properly and he's 2175 01:59:26,360 --> 01:59:26,960 Speaker 3: going to be ready. 2176 01:59:27,280 --> 01:59:29,600 Speaker 1: By the way, do you believe in the zone, like 2177 01:59:29,680 --> 01:59:32,520 Speaker 1: when people say that athletes get in the zone and 2178 01:59:32,600 --> 01:59:34,560 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you remember Jordan said, like the 2179 01:59:35,080 --> 01:59:37,880 Speaker 1: rim becomes like a big old bucket, right, do you believe. 2180 01:59:37,600 --> 01:59:41,240 Speaker 3: In the zone? Oh? Yeah, that's real called it? Yeah, 2181 01:59:41,360 --> 01:59:42,040 Speaker 3: like the flow state. 2182 01:59:42,760 --> 01:59:46,000 Speaker 1: Okay, so the flow state is what it's known as. Now, okay, Now, 2183 01:59:46,840 --> 01:59:50,280 Speaker 1: the reason I ask and I think that with everything 2184 01:59:50,360 --> 01:59:52,760 Speaker 1: that took place in all of the excitement of the 2185 01:59:52,880 --> 01:59:55,360 Speaker 1: miraculous finishes that you guys had and getting to the 2186 01:59:55,400 --> 01:59:59,040 Speaker 1: finals and all of that, historically, I worry that perhaps 2187 01:59:59,160 --> 02:00:02,320 Speaker 1: we're going to forget about being in the flow state 2188 02:00:02,440 --> 02:00:04,960 Speaker 1: like you were against New York. Were you in that 2189 02:00:05,320 --> 02:00:06,520 Speaker 1: zone in that game? 2190 02:00:07,560 --> 02:00:11,640 Speaker 3: Oh? Yeah, it's nothing like that. That's that's I always say. 2191 02:00:11,720 --> 02:00:14,400 Speaker 3: You know, all the work you put in the early mornings, 2192 02:00:14,480 --> 02:00:18,120 Speaker 3: every left, every extra shot you take after practice, before practice, 2193 02:00:18,160 --> 02:00:20,560 Speaker 3: it's for those moments, like you do all of that 2194 02:00:20,800 --> 02:00:23,120 Speaker 3: so that when you do enter that state, it's just 2195 02:00:23,520 --> 02:00:25,960 Speaker 3: all rhythm. You lead on the work that you put in, 2196 02:00:26,600 --> 02:00:30,560 Speaker 3: and it just literally feels like you're floating. You're just vibing. 2197 02:00:31,880 --> 02:00:34,280 Speaker 1: Well, you were, I know, question about it, right, and 2198 02:00:34,920 --> 02:00:37,760 Speaker 1: you know do you You're an interesting one to me 2199 02:00:38,000 --> 02:00:42,840 Speaker 1: erin because your three point shot it almost seems like 2200 02:00:43,000 --> 02:00:46,560 Speaker 1: sometimes you're more in that flow state, if you will 2201 02:00:47,000 --> 02:00:50,120 Speaker 1: when it's accelerated and that you know, wide receivers often 2202 02:00:50,200 --> 02:00:52,760 Speaker 1: say in football that the hardest pass to catch is 2203 02:00:52,800 --> 02:00:55,680 Speaker 1: the one where they're wide open. Is the same thing 2204 02:00:55,840 --> 02:00:59,360 Speaker 1: true as an outside shooter? Does it? Is it more 2205 02:00:59,400 --> 02:01:02,200 Speaker 1: a rhythm saying if you're wide open and you've got 2206 02:01:02,280 --> 02:01:04,840 Speaker 1: time to square up, does it almost then become more 2207 02:01:04,880 --> 02:01:05,920 Speaker 1: of a challenge. 2208 02:01:07,360 --> 02:01:09,240 Speaker 3: A little bit because you have more time to think 2209 02:01:09,440 --> 02:01:11,560 Speaker 3: you're not you know, you're not in the rhythm of 2210 02:01:11,680 --> 02:01:14,640 Speaker 3: your jump shot. And I think, you know, all my life, 2211 02:01:14,680 --> 02:01:16,360 Speaker 3: I've always been such a great shooter that. 2212 02:01:16,480 --> 02:01:19,720 Speaker 15: Nobody leaves me open and so more times and I'm 2213 02:01:20,280 --> 02:01:23,400 Speaker 15: more used to having somebody sprint at meat full speed 2214 02:01:23,960 --> 02:01:26,080 Speaker 15: trying to keep me from shooting the ball post just 2215 02:01:26,200 --> 02:01:28,200 Speaker 15: letting me shoot it, so I see it more. 2216 02:01:29,440 --> 02:01:33,200 Speaker 1: By the way, were you surprised by the Miles Turner decision? 2217 02:01:35,120 --> 02:01:35,440 Speaker 6: I was. 2218 02:01:37,160 --> 02:01:38,880 Speaker 1: Did you guys speak to him? I mean, is he 2219 02:01:39,360 --> 02:01:42,400 Speaker 1: you know, how does that work in professional sports? Your teammates? 2220 02:01:42,440 --> 02:01:45,400 Speaker 1: But I assume you're also friends, So how does that 2221 02:01:45,600 --> 02:01:47,360 Speaker 1: work once that all goes down? 2222 02:01:49,240 --> 02:01:51,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, he sent, you know, to mention to the group 2223 02:01:51,400 --> 02:01:54,040 Speaker 3: chat about his decision and why he made it, and 2224 02:01:54,960 --> 02:01:57,720 Speaker 3: you know, I'm I'm also I'm just the type of 2225 02:01:57,760 --> 02:02:00,760 Speaker 3: guy that you know, I wish't nothing but the best 2226 02:02:01,200 --> 02:02:03,400 Speaker 3: he did he thought was right for him and his family. 2227 02:02:03,600 --> 02:02:06,920 Speaker 3: And we'll see him when he played Milwaukee. You know, 2228 02:02:06,960 --> 02:02:09,160 Speaker 3: I'll give him a big hug at half court. But 2229 02:02:09,240 --> 02:02:11,880 Speaker 3: you know, once the game starts, you know, I gotta 2230 02:02:11,920 --> 02:02:12,360 Speaker 3: win the game. 2231 02:02:12,560 --> 02:02:13,760 Speaker 1: Did he say what the reason was? 2232 02:02:15,120 --> 02:02:18,600 Speaker 3: Ah, that's him, that's for him, that's for him to speak. 2233 02:02:18,640 --> 02:02:21,200 Speaker 1: All.

No, I'm sure my family did, 2261 02:03:42,600 --> 02:03:45,840 Speaker 3: though I kept I tried to bookmark as many things 2262 02:03:45,840 --> 02:03:48,280 Speaker 3: as I can, just because I know later in life 2263 02:03:48,280 --> 02:03:50,120 Speaker 3: I'm obviously going to want to look back at them. 2264 02:03:51,080 --> 02:03:53,280 Speaker 3: But I let my family do all the picture take it. 2265 02:03:53,920 --> 02:03:56,400 Speaker 1: Have you gotten a chance to enjoy or watch the 2266 02:03:56,520 --> 02:03:57,120 Speaker 1: Fever run? 2267 02:03:58,600 --> 02:03:58,800 Speaker 5: I have. 2268 02:03:59,320 --> 02:04:01,320 Speaker 3: I have. I haven't been able to make it to 2269 02:04:01,400 --> 02:04:03,240 Speaker 3: a game yet, but I have been keeping up. 2270 02:04:03,600 --> 02:04:06,520 Speaker 1: Do you guys feed off one another? You know, I 2271 02:04:06,640 --> 02:04:09,960 Speaker 1: realize your seasons are different, obviously, but and your facilities 2272 02:04:10,000 --> 02:04:12,000 Speaker 1: will soon be completely different. But do you get a 2273 02:04:12,160 --> 02:04:15,600 Speaker 1: chance to kind of interact with one another or you know, 2274 02:04:15,680 --> 02:04:18,840 Speaker 1: at different events things representing the franchise. 2275 02:04:18,480 --> 02:04:20,920 Speaker 3: Times sometimes not too much, just because we said our 2276 02:04:20,960 --> 02:04:23,920 Speaker 3: teams are you know, at different times, and a lot 2277 02:04:24,000 --> 02:04:27,400 Speaker 3: of times during our season they're playing overseas or they're 2278 02:04:27,440 --> 02:04:30,160 Speaker 3: playing in the different leagues and such, so they're not 2279 02:04:30,280 --> 02:04:33,360 Speaker 3: always around. But there's always, like usually this period right here, 2280 02:04:33,760 --> 02:04:36,040 Speaker 3: there's always a gap and where we'll do events together, 2281 02:04:36,160 --> 02:04:39,760 Speaker 3: we'll see each other and they always come to our games. 2282 02:04:39,760 --> 02:04:41,920 Speaker 3: You know, we go to their games, so we do. 2283 02:04:42,160 --> 02:04:43,440 Speaker 3: We do mix it up a good bit. 2284 02:04:43,680 --> 02:04:46,840 Speaker 1: And lastly, you're an interesting one because you grew up 2285 02:04:46,840 --> 02:04:49,320 Speaker 1: in South Carolina. Aaron Ne Smith our guest. When you 2286 02:04:49,400 --> 02:04:51,440 Speaker 1: were a kid growing up, did you have an NFL team? 2287 02:04:51,440 --> 02:04:53,040 Speaker 1: Would it have been the Atlanta Falcons or. 2288 02:04:53,040 --> 02:04:57,280 Speaker 3: Carolina Unfortunately, as of right now it's the Carolina Fnthers. 2289 02:04:58,640 --> 02:05:01,760 Speaker 3: I'll never pluted up. But yeah, it's real dark. 2290 02:05:01,680 --> 02:05:05,040 Speaker 1: For us, right, I would say yes, in fact, that 2291 02:05:05,080 --> 02:05:05,800 Speaker 1: would be the case. 2292 02:05:05,840 --> 02:05:08,920 Speaker 7: Statty and you guys obviously we've talked about have lost 2293 02:05:09,280 --> 02:05:11,760 Speaker 7: Miles Turner. No, Tyre's Halliburton for you guys this year 2294 02:05:12,040 --> 02:05:14,160 Speaker 7: who has to step up in the leadership role, because 2295 02:05:14,160 --> 02:05:16,640 Speaker 7: those are those were two big voices for you guys 2296 02:05:16,720 --> 02:05:17,840 Speaker 7: throughout the course the last season. 2297 02:05:18,640 --> 02:05:20,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, we're gonna have to do it by committee, 2298 02:05:20,400 --> 02:05:23,040 Speaker 3: and I think everybody in here understands what's going to 2299 02:05:23,080 --> 02:05:25,720 Speaker 3: be asked to them. Everybody in here understands that we're 2300 02:05:25,960 --> 02:05:28,600 Speaker 3: everybody's got to do a little bit more. And I 2301 02:05:28,640 --> 02:05:32,160 Speaker 3: think everybody as much as like we as far as 2302 02:05:32,200 --> 02:05:34,520 Speaker 3: it made it and we came up short. I think 2303 02:05:35,080 --> 02:05:38,800 Speaker 3: the culmination of Tyres being out and Miles leaving, everybody 2304 02:05:38,880 --> 02:05:42,040 Speaker 3: had proper motivation this summer, eat to work and to 2305 02:05:42,120 --> 02:05:45,120 Speaker 3: get better. And I think we have a pretty special 2306 02:05:45,160 --> 02:05:48,000 Speaker 3: group of guys to where we use different things. It's 2307 02:05:48,080 --> 02:05:51,280 Speaker 3: fuel and motivation, and I think those those the combination 2308 02:05:51,400 --> 02:05:53,440 Speaker 3: of both of those happening so close to each other, 2309 02:05:54,080 --> 02:05:55,840 Speaker 3: like we're able to turn the page and the loss 2310 02:05:55,880 --> 02:05:57,040 Speaker 3: really quickly and get to work. 2311 02:05:57,240 --> 02:06:00,800 Speaker 1: Will it be an adjustment in terms of stylist because 2312 02:06:00,840 --> 02:06:03,120 Speaker 1: I think you know, it's been stated obviously that you 2313 02:06:03,200 --> 02:06:05,960 Speaker 1: guys will not be playing as fast now at least 2314 02:06:06,040 --> 02:06:09,200 Speaker 1: for this season, and maybe you do go a little 2315 02:06:09,240 --> 02:06:11,880 Speaker 1: bit more half court set or ISO set. Will that 2316 02:06:12,080 --> 02:06:13,400 Speaker 1: be an adjustment. 2317 02:06:15,000 --> 02:06:16,760 Speaker 3: I think. I mean, we're gonna play the same way 2318 02:06:16,800 --> 02:06:18,840 Speaker 3: we've been playing. We're you're gonna have to continue to 2319 02:06:18,920 --> 02:06:21,600 Speaker 3: do that as a team, and you know, one man 2320 02:06:21,800 --> 02:06:24,200 Speaker 3: are our main guys out, but we've been doing it 2321 02:06:24,280 --> 02:06:26,960 Speaker 3: for so long that we we can't. We don't know 2322 02:06:27,040 --> 02:06:29,800 Speaker 3: any other way to play except for fast picking up 2323 02:06:29,840 --> 02:06:32,920 Speaker 3: full court and you know, being a pest. So we're 2324 02:06:33,000 --> 02:06:33,680 Speaker 3: gonna do it again. 2325 02:06:33,880 --> 02:06:37,000 Speaker 1: It is kind of weird though, Like for me, it 2326 02:06:37,160 --> 02:06:39,800 Speaker 1: just aaron like I was. It was so much fun. 2327 02:06:39,920 --> 02:06:41,480 Speaker 1: And I'm not saying it's not going to be this year, 2328 02:06:41,600 --> 02:06:43,120 Speaker 1: and I think that the Pacers are going to be 2329 02:06:43,200 --> 02:06:46,120 Speaker 1: probably better than people are giving credit, right But but 2330 02:06:46,200 --> 02:06:48,800 Speaker 1: at the same time, I have to keep reminding myself 2331 02:06:49,600 --> 02:06:52,320 Speaker 1: that the roster will look different for the interim than 2332 02:06:52,400 --> 02:06:54,920 Speaker 1: it did a year ago. You are one of those 2333 02:06:54,960 --> 02:06:57,839 Speaker 1: players on that roster, do you have to also remind 2334 02:06:57,920 --> 02:06:58,560 Speaker 1: yourself of that. 2335 02:07:00,920 --> 02:07:03,160 Speaker 3: I've kind of I mean, I've had to remind myself 2336 02:07:03,200 --> 02:07:05,560 Speaker 3: it's going to look a little differently, you know, to 2337 02:07:05,680 --> 02:07:09,240 Speaker 3: start the season. And I think we, like especially in 2338 02:07:09,360 --> 02:07:12,520 Speaker 3: training camp, like we're gonna have to relearn a couple 2339 02:07:12,560 --> 02:07:15,400 Speaker 3: of things and recommit to a couple of things. And 2340 02:07:15,840 --> 02:07:19,120 Speaker 3: I think once we get past that hurdle, it'll be 2341 02:07:19,200 --> 02:07:22,040 Speaker 3: easy flowing again. But there will be a learning curve obviously, 2342 02:07:22,240 --> 02:07:24,880 Speaker 3: and there's gonna be ups and downs because you know, 2343 02:07:25,000 --> 02:07:27,560 Speaker 3: we're so used to playing a certain way and with 2344 02:07:27,720 --> 02:07:30,800 Speaker 3: Tyry's being down, like, we're gonna have to learn different things. 2345 02:07:31,000 --> 02:07:33,920 Speaker 3: So you know, all that will come with time and repetition. 2346 02:07:34,480 --> 02:07:37,280 Speaker 1: Okay, lastly, so i'd lied, but I said lastly last time. 2347 02:07:37,320 --> 02:07:40,000 Speaker 1: But we talked to you. The last time I talked 2348 02:07:40,040 --> 02:07:42,640 Speaker 1: to you, you had mentioned that the most recent book 2349 02:07:42,680 --> 02:07:45,960 Speaker 1: you had finished was Unbroken, which is a fabulous, fabulous 2350 02:07:45,960 --> 02:07:48,920 Speaker 1: book about Louise Emperini. I'm curious the last book now 2351 02:07:48,960 --> 02:07:49,400 Speaker 1: that you read. 2352 02:07:50,360 --> 02:07:52,480 Speaker 3: I've actually read. I actually read a couple of books, 2353 02:07:52,680 --> 02:08:00,280 Speaker 3: and I read Man, it's like a it's it took 2354 02:08:00,320 --> 02:08:03,760 Speaker 3: an overthinking book. But it was called something like the 2355 02:08:03,880 --> 02:08:05,400 Speaker 3: Keito over Thing. I can't remember it was called. I 2356 02:08:05,480 --> 02:08:07,680 Speaker 3: read that last year. And then I read a fancy 2357 02:08:07,720 --> 02:08:12,000 Speaker 3: book called Probably. I don't know why I'm blanking on it. 2358 02:08:12,720 --> 02:08:14,840 Speaker 3: It's like a three I read three books. I read 2359 02:08:14,880 --> 02:08:17,320 Speaker 3: four books. I read this overthinking book. I read one 2360 02:08:17,360 --> 02:08:20,200 Speaker 3: hundred Laws of power and then I read this series. 2361 02:08:23,040 --> 02:08:25,280 Speaker 1: For what it's worth. By the way, I'm guilty of 2362 02:08:25,360 --> 02:08:28,360 Speaker 1: one hundred ways to overthink, right, yeah, yeah, yeah, you 2363 02:08:28,440 --> 02:08:31,000 Speaker 1: know what I mean. That's that sounds like that sounds 2364 02:08:31,040 --> 02:08:32,920 Speaker 1: like my biography, you know that, right? 2365 02:08:33,120 --> 02:08:33,320 Speaker 2: Yeah. 2366 02:08:33,680 --> 02:08:37,160 Speaker 7: Aaron Jake ridicules me from time to time on this show. 2367 02:08:37,280 --> 02:08:39,280 Speaker 7: And one of the reasons why I'm not a big traveler. 2368 02:08:39,320 --> 02:08:41,160 Speaker 7: I've never traveled outside of the United States. And I 2369 02:08:41,280 --> 02:08:43,280 Speaker 7: know you like to go to Japan. Did you go 2370 02:08:43,320 --> 02:08:45,200 Speaker 7: to Japan during the off season? And if you didn't, 2371 02:08:45,200 --> 02:08:46,160 Speaker 7: did you go somewhere else? 2372 02:08:46,560 --> 02:08:50,520 Speaker 3: I went to Costa Rica. The book was called Fourth Wing, Fourth. 2373 02:08:50,360 --> 02:08:51,680 Speaker 1: Wing, Fourth Wing? 2374 02:08:51,800 --> 02:08:55,320 Speaker 3: Okay, hang on, yeah, but no, I went to Costa 2375 02:08:55,400 --> 02:08:57,760 Speaker 3: Rica this summer by I went golfing out there. 2376 02:08:58,800 --> 02:08:59,120 Speaker 1: Nice. 2377 02:08:59,560 --> 02:08:59,800 Speaker 3: Nice. 2378 02:09:00,080 --> 02:09:03,520 Speaker 1: Yeah.

Yeah, 2388 02:09:33,520 --> 02:09:36,080 Speaker 1: right right, they were not in the flow state. I 2389 02:09:36,120 --> 02:09:41,560 Speaker 1: can tell you right now, that's right.

Daniel Jones said, you know, 2440 02:12:04,040 --> 02:12:06,080 Speaker 1: a game isn't made by one play, and I'm like, right, 2441 02:12:06,120 --> 02:12:07,680 Speaker 1: which is why he needed a second one. 2442 02:12:08,200 --> 02:12:11,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, well, yeah exactly.

So is none of their young draft 2455 02:12:39,720 --> 02:12:42,000 Speaker 7: picks developed kind of doing the same thing here, Like 2456 02:12:42,120 --> 02:12:44,080 Speaker 7: I just I will say this, I think that we 2457 02:12:44,280 --> 02:12:45,360 Speaker 7: have been there. 2458 02:12:45,240 --> 02:12:47,680 Speaker 5: And done that with Howard. So I don't know what 2459 02:12:48,440 --> 02:12:51,200 Speaker 5: more you have to know or understand here. What are 2460 02:12:51,240 --> 02:12:51,760 Speaker 5: we trying to do? 2461 02:12:51,880 --> 02:12:54,360 Speaker 1: I mean, Howard, you know obviously that's who you line up, 2462 02:12:54,360 --> 02:12:58,200 Speaker 1: and the entire Jar just clinging to life until Jalen 2463 02:12:58,320 --> 02:13:00,280 Speaker 1: Jones and then Kenny Moore and the rest of them were. 2464 02:13:00,240 --> 02:13:00,640 Speaker 3: Back, right. 2465 02:13:00,760 --> 02:13:02,280 Speaker 1: I mean, that's kind of where they are. 2466 02:13:02,640 --> 02:13:04,720 Speaker 5: I will say this, Is there any party that wants 2467 02:13:04,760 --> 02:13:07,240 Speaker 5: to say, hey, they're three and one? Can everybody shut up? 2468 02:13:07,360 --> 02:13:07,520 Speaker 2: Yeah? 2469 02:13:07,560 --> 02:13:09,280 Speaker 1: Oh that's I mean that was because they really should 2470 02:13:09,320 --> 02:13:11,000 Speaker 1: be two and two. And John, here's the other thing. 2471 02:13:12,160 --> 02:13:15,600 Speaker 1: They the football gods kind of balanced it out right, 2472 02:13:15,680 --> 02:13:17,600 Speaker 1: because they probably should have lost a different and they 2473 02:13:17,600 --> 02:13:20,480 Speaker 1: should have won yesterday. But I think in the grand 2474 02:13:20,560 --> 02:13:23,120 Speaker 1: scheme of things, you have to be fairly optimistic. I mean, 2475 02:13:23,160 --> 02:13:25,800 Speaker 1: they're three and one. They played a pretty good team. 2476 02:13:25,800 --> 02:13:28,040 Speaker 5: They have a CRAF schedule for the most part, correct. 2477 02:13:28,200 --> 02:13:29,720 Speaker 1: I mean that's the thing. You look at their schedule. 2478 02:13:29,760 --> 02:13:32,000 Speaker 1: We were talking about that earlier. They still got to 2479 02:13:32,040 --> 02:13:35,040 Speaker 1: go to LA and play the Chargers and then you've 2480 02:13:35,080 --> 02:13:37,880 Speaker 1: got the You know, obviously the Chiefs are going to 2481 02:13:37,880 --> 02:13:41,000 Speaker 1: be a tough game, right and then do they have 2482 02:13:41,080 --> 02:13:42,120 Speaker 1: the race? They don't play the rate. 2483 02:13:42,240 --> 02:13:44,680 Speaker 5: Well, Houston's got a first play schedule and they suck. 2484 02:13:44,920 --> 02:13:47,200 Speaker 5: If you watched that game yesterday, it was an absolute 2485 02:13:47,280 --> 02:13:50,000 Speaker 5: brutality against Tennessee. The only team you need to watch 2486 02:13:50,080 --> 02:13:53,520 Speaker 5: out for is Jacksonville. If you can't beat Jacksonville, what 2487 02:13:53,640 --> 02:13:54,240 Speaker 5: do you deserve? 2488 02:13:54,680 --> 02:13:57,920 Speaker 1: So that, to me is is it? But I'm listening. 2489 02:13:58,440 --> 02:14:02,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, that was called and in the whole a d 2490 02:14:02,320 --> 02:14:05,480 Speaker 5: Mitchell thing after Jonathan Taylor a year ago. See, there's 2491 02:14:05,480 --> 02:14:07,360 Speaker 5: no way. People say I want to cut him, he 2492 02:14:07,440 --> 02:14:09,320 Speaker 5: needs to be cut, send him packing. 2493 02:14:09,800 --> 02:14:10,640 Speaker 3: They're not going to do that. 2494 02:14:10,880 --> 02:14:14,920 Speaker 5: Well, he's a second rounder. Jonathan Taylor did it a 2495 02:14:15,000 --> 02:14:18,560 Speaker 5: year ago, and I know he's drastically different. But Jonathan 2496 02:14:18,600 --> 02:14:20,960 Speaker 5: Taylor did it in a situation in which cost them 2497 02:14:21,000 --> 02:14:26,360 Speaker 5: the postseason with Denver. So yeah, it stinks, but I 2498 02:14:26,400 --> 02:14:29,080 Speaker 5: will say this, they win that game also if Alec 2499 02:14:29,120 --> 02:14:32,240 Speaker 5: Pierce is healthy. Because Alex Pierce goes up and gets 2500 02:14:32,440 --> 02:14:35,080 Speaker 5: a couple of those passes from Daniel Jones. 2501 02:14:34,840 --> 02:14:36,720 Speaker 1: Right, he holds onto it. 2502 02:14:37,080 --> 02:14:41,440 Speaker 5: He holds onto it. Until they right exactly, Buddy. 2503 02:14:41,200 --> 02:14:43,320 Speaker 1: All right, John's up next. He will be with you 2504 02:14:43,640 --> 02:14:46,760 Speaker 1: until six o'clock tonight, I think again.
