1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,240
Speaker 1: We are back. It is the month of December. Yes,

2
00:00:03,320 --> 00:00:05,560
Speaker 1: I guess Monday spot is also December, but it definitely

3
00:00:05,559 --> 00:00:07,840
Speaker 1: feels in earnest with the snow here in the Circle

4
00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:10,920
Speaker 1: City off the Florida it looks like east amount of

5
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:13,040
Speaker 1: rain in the forecast for this weekend. It'll be Colts

6
00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:18,360
Speaker 1: and jag Sunday one o'clock in a massive, massive one

7
00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:21,480
Speaker 1: in the AFC South. I'm Kevin Bowing back another edition

8
00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:24,240
Speaker 1: of Colt's Corner with myself, Kevin bow and Eddie Garrison

9
00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:27,760
Speaker 1: is across the way, Eddie, Good afternoon to you.

10
00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:31,280
Speaker 2: Good afternoon, sir. How are you good Man good? Did

11
00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:34,160
Speaker 2: the kids enjoy the snow outside? Max Bowing and Rosie Bowing?

12
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:38,400
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, yeah, they definitely have. I think I don't know,

13
00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:40,840
Speaker 1: maybe some sleds could be in use at some point here.

14
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:43,760
Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm totally ready for the snow

15
00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 1: just yet, but.

16
00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:46,199
Speaker 2: It's pretty helpful that you live on the side of

17
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:48,159
Speaker 2: town that you do, because you know, Butler's not too

18
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:50,000
Speaker 2: far and they've got a rest hill there for you guys.

19
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,199
Speaker 1: Correct, So yeah, we'll have to get out in the

20
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:54,840
Speaker 1: bouts and we did do a Max Bowen helmet crawl

21
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:55,560
Speaker 1: mid snow.

22
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:57,800
Speaker 2: It did not go very well.

23
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:01,280
Speaker 1: He was he was whinding about as much as I

24
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:05,440
Speaker 1: think a Coults Nation was about the officiating exiting Sunday's game.

25
00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:08,120
Speaker 1: So I we'll have to put that out here in

26
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:10,040
Speaker 1: a couple of days. But yeah, looking forward to Sunday.

27
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:13,040
Speaker 1: You know, again, when you've created a record like the

28
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:16,120
Speaker 1: Colts have at eight and four, you earn the right

29
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:22,560
Speaker 1: for big time December January games. Now, if you can

30
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:26,479
Speaker 1: maintain that record, of course, you're playing for a lot,

31
00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:31,559
Speaker 1: and maybe the loss isn't as significant if you're playing

32
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 1: for the one seed or something like that, or if

33
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:35,199
Speaker 1: you have a multi game divisional lead, but all that's

34
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:38,200
Speaker 1: out the window. The win and the loss is equally

35
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:41,040
Speaker 1: as important. We'll get into the Colts Kicker news, but

36
00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:43,319
Speaker 1: just to throw it out into some numbers.

37
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 2: Here to lead off the pod.

38
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:48,559
Speaker 1: Based off the playoff predictor of the New York Times

39
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:51,920
Speaker 1: right now, sixty eight percent to make it win on Sunday,

40
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 1: and that rises to eighty five you lose. It drops

41
00:01:55,120 --> 00:02:00,360
Speaker 1: the fifty one. In terms of the AFC South, thirty

42
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 1: four percent currently to win the AFC South a win

43
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,200
Speaker 1: on Sunday that would rise to fifty four.

44
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:08,639
Speaker 2: What that does that list Jacksonville and Houston on the

45
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:10,360
Speaker 2: area as well for AC South odds.

46
00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:13,080
Speaker 1: Percent just do not have Jacksonville in front of me.

47
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:16,760
Speaker 1: Rise to fifty four with a win fourteenth for the loss.

48
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:19,799
Speaker 1: I assume Jacksonville is probably close to you know, probably there,

49
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:23,679
Speaker 1: I don't know, forty ish percent given their schedule the

50
00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:25,640
Speaker 1: rest of the way. I think that is influencing some

51
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:28,079
Speaker 1: of these numbers. And then Houston is probably whatever at

52
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:31,600
Speaker 1: twenty ish percent. So all of that to say, the

53
00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 1: numerical value also plays into what a critically important game

54
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 1: in a place that obviously is Colts Hell.

55
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 2: So should we start Kevin giving like standing's updates, like

56
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:46,720
Speaker 2: AAFC South standings updates, who Jacksonville is playing Houston, and

57
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:49,600
Speaker 2: then you know the other teams that are waiting for

58
00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 2: the wildcard that the Colts are now in the race with.

59
00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:54,320
Speaker 1: Unfortunately, yeah, yeah, maybe you know, next week we definitely

60
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:57,760
Speaker 1: started the AFC South, But yeah, Houston's got Kansas City

61
00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:00,440
Speaker 1: Sunday night. So you know, honestly, all the teams that

62
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:03,360
Speaker 1: the Colts are paying attention to pretty much play each

63
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:04,080
Speaker 1: other this weekend.

64
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:08,800
Speaker 2: So it's a great slate. So yeah, yeah, Chargers, They've

65
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:10,919
Speaker 2: got the Eagles Monday night football, so that should be

66
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:13,360
Speaker 2: a good game. That's another team that's in the wild

67
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 2: card hunt and Buffalo they happy, right, Cincinnati, Yeah.

68
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:20,240
Speaker 1: We'll see about the healthy Justin Herbert, you know in

69
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,960
Speaker 1: that Chargers game with the hand injury.

70
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 2: Eddie.

71
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:26,440
Speaker 1: Let's sart with the kicker news. Blake Groupie man that

72
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:29,119
Speaker 1: I've watched kick a lot of footballs in my life

73
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:31,919
Speaker 1: as a Notre Dame fan. The twenty twenty two season,

74
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:35,280
Speaker 1: he and Brian Mason together in South Bend, so there's

75
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 1: your connection there. He might be the smallest player in

76
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,360
Speaker 1: Colt's history, at least the smallest player in quite a while,

77
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 1: at five to seven and a one hundred and fifty

78
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 1: seven pounds. So you know, this time of year, every

79
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 1: kicker that's available has warts. Blake Groupie certainly has some

80
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 1: the why behind you move behind this move obviously the

81
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:56,680
Speaker 1: Brian Mason connection. There's NFL experience. He has been the

82
00:03:56,720 --> 00:04:00,880
Speaker 1: Saints kicker for the last three years. He is eighty

83
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:03,360
Speaker 1: six for eighty eight in his career on extra points.

84
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 1: That is a pretty good number from a percentage standpoint.

85
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 1: And he also, I would say, if I'm going to

86
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 1: get into like big time kicker, you know, weeds here,

87
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 1: I would say he's got a slightly longer leg than Badly,

88
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:19,640
Speaker 1: like I do think there will be if they need

89
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:21,920
Speaker 1: to kick north of fifty. He's got a little bit

90
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:23,680
Speaker 1: more there. Not a lot, but he's got a little

91
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:26,800
Speaker 1: bit more there. Now why is he available? Why are

92
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 1: there warts? Well, he was just cut by the Saints

93
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:33,600
Speaker 1: this year, Eddie. He has missed five field goals between

94
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:37,840
Speaker 1: thirty and forty nine yards and the Saints primarily are

95
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:39,719
Speaker 1: playing indoors, so that's alarming.

96
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:41,120
Speaker 2: That's not ideal.

97
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:43,920
Speaker 1: You know, really kicked pretty nicely for them in twenty

98
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 1: three and twenty four. This year, the percentages have dipped

99
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:50,680
Speaker 1: on field goals now again extra points. He's perfect, So

100
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:54,360
Speaker 1: that's your give and take that you get with him,

101
00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:57,600
Speaker 1: and yeah, Lake Groupie life.

102
00:04:57,640 --> 00:04:58,120
Speaker 2: Here we go.

103
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,560
Speaker 1: This will be the the first time in franchise history

104
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 1: the Colts have had three kickers in a season. Whenever

105
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,320
Speaker 1: Blake Groupy attempts a field goal. So kind of crazy

106
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,680
Speaker 1: when you think, and that's Baltimore Colts as well. You

107
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:11,800
Speaker 1: got to go back that far, you know, on the

108
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:18,320
Speaker 1: Justin Tucker front, I'm not totally surprised that the Colts

109
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 1: worked him out. I think I said this a few

110
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 1: years back, and I'll guess I'll bring it up again,

111
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:25,120
Speaker 1: and not to act like it's exactly apples to apples,

112
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:28,120
Speaker 1: but I think we largely group these two situations together.

113
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:32,760
Speaker 1: I think if Deshaun Watson had been playing for a

114
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 1: team not in the AFC South, I think the Colts

115
00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:36,160
Speaker 1: would have been knocking on that door to trade for him.

116
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 2: Well, didn't they knock on the door anyway.

117
00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:41,240
Speaker 1: Well, knocking the door and maybe it would have been answered.

118
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:44,400
Speaker 1: I guess it's probably had probably the better way to

119
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:47,080
Speaker 1: put it. That's all those dominoes led to Matt Ryan,

120
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 1: of course, But again I don't think there's just this

121
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:52,520
Speaker 1: moral compass necessarily, but the Colts as an organization or

122
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:56,320
Speaker 1: frankly anybody in the NFL that puts them above really anything.

123
00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:00,040
Speaker 1: And you know, with three daughters running the show, I

124
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:01,640
Speaker 1: don't know if you're going to bring the guy into workout.

125
00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 1: I think at that point you for the most part,

126
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 1: it's not like you're vetting the sixteen mithage therapist in

127
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:11,880
Speaker 1: the Baltimore area to give their take on it. So

128
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 1: Blake Groupie it is though, And you know, one thing

129
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 1: to put on out about Tucker, you know last year

130
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:21,039
Speaker 1: he was I mean, if you think Matt Gay was

131
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:23,640
Speaker 1: all for the Colts, justin Tucker was ten percent worse.

132
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:27,200
Speaker 1: He's the worst kicker in the league last year thirty

133
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:30,559
Speaker 1: two ranked from a percentage standpoint, So.

134
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:33,760
Speaker 2: In his last three years he's sixteen of thirty beyond fifty.

135
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:36,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, so there has definitely been a slow dip to

136
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:42,400
Speaker 1: his really exceptional career before that. And then who knows

137
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:46,240
Speaker 1: from a distraction standpoint, that would obviously bring something. I

138
00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:49,240
Speaker 1: always feel this way when we get into Colts kicker talk.

139
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:50,800
Speaker 1: And by the way he shout out to Brian Mason,

140
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,080
Speaker 1: I thought he was super candid on Tuesday and just

141
00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:55,800
Speaker 1: calling it inexcusable. That's the exact word I would use

142
00:06:56,360 --> 00:07:00,400
Speaker 1: to describe three missed extra points in seven weeks. But

143
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:04,799
Speaker 1: also acknowledging, Hey, you aren't shopping top shelf in December

144
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:08,000
Speaker 1: when you're looking for a kicker, and you know, Blake

145
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:11,520
Speaker 1: Groupy might not be overwhelmingly or you know, much better

146
00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:13,760
Speaker 1: than Michael Badgley, but at that point with Badgerilye too

147
00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:15,480
Speaker 1: I think you have to start worrying about mentally too.

148
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:17,680
Speaker 1: You know, how much does three extra points start impacting

149
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:20,120
Speaker 1: other parts of your game? And you know, I do

150
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:21,680
Speaker 1: think it's a little bit harder to find a kicker

151
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:23,400
Speaker 1: at this time of year than it was five six

152
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:26,760
Speaker 1: years ago because with the practice squad, I mean, Eddie,

153
00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 1: there's probably what five to ten teams around the league

154
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:32,160
Speaker 1: that carry two kickers now, And yeah, you know that

155
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:34,640
Speaker 1: I think makes it a little bit more difficult. But

156
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:38,200
Speaker 1: kind of big picture colts kicker. You know, we've talked

157
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 1: about this position so much over the last now three

158
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:43,600
Speaker 1: or four years. It always has confused me why they

159
00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:47,960
Speaker 1: didn't just keep Chase McLoughlin. Yeah, you know, you go

160
00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:50,280
Speaker 1: back to whatever that was twenty two I think it was,

161
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 1: and they kept hot Rod over McLoughlin, and I just

162
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 1: didn't get that. And then you know, obviously they make

163
00:07:57,640 --> 00:07:59,760
Speaker 1: the big splash for Matt Gay and that that didn't

164
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:04,000
Speaker 1: work out. But yeah, the whole McLoughlin thing, I I.

165
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:05,560
Speaker 2: Don't know, that was always weird to me. I thought

166
00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:07,680
Speaker 2: he kicked pretty well here, didn't you have a like

167
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:10,920
Speaker 2: a really bad miss? Was that San Francisco? Is that him?

168
00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:14,000
Speaker 2: Like looked bad, like shank bad. Yeah, like to the

169
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:17,200
Speaker 2: tunnel bad. Yeah, that sounds kind of right.

170
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:21,600
Speaker 1: Yeah again with kickers Man, it's just like almost optically,

171
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:25,640
Speaker 1: you know, numbers are numbers, but like almost optically it

172
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:27,560
Speaker 1: can be bad. You know, you go back and you

173
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:30,640
Speaker 1: watch Badgely's extra point from Sunday. That thing started left

174
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:32,800
Speaker 1: of the upright. Have you ever seen an extra point

175
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 1: start outside of the uprights? Like usually it starts in

176
00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:39,080
Speaker 1: the uprights and then the hooks or shanks or whatever.

177
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:41,200
Speaker 1: That thing started left and had to cut back just

178
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:44,440
Speaker 1: to hit the upright And the loudest sound in sports sounds.

179
00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:46,760
Speaker 2: Like that predude drum. Is that just a you know,

180
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:49,920
Speaker 2: like a shank like you're hitting off the t box? Yeah,

181
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:53,679
Speaker 2: that's yeah. He's lucky that young Hoku did his thing.

182
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:58,839
Speaker 1: Later on Okay Blake Groupie Time, Eddie Garson, I assume

183
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:00,760
Speaker 1: what they'll do is they'll promote them practice squad for

184
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,320
Speaker 1: three straight weeks, then make you know, a permanent move

185
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,120
Speaker 1: with the fifty three man roster. Right now, they do

186
00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:08,840
Speaker 1: have an open roster spot. Could that be Jalen Carlies

187
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:10,240
Speaker 1: At the end of the week, you know, this is

188
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:12,680
Speaker 1: the final week of him being able to practice in

189
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:14,240
Speaker 1: that twenty one day window.

190
00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:17,120
Speaker 2: In despite him being activated, I would assume.

191
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,000
Speaker 1: You know, again, right now they've got fifty two, you know,

192
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:22,120
Speaker 1: that would be the fifty third guy. If not, he's

193
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:24,400
Speaker 1: on IR for the rest of the year, right, I mean,

194
00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 1: that would be a totally lost season for him there.

195
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:29,600
Speaker 1: But I know some people are curious about that open

196
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:32,320
Speaker 1: roster spot. That's kind of how I view it.

197
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:35,320
Speaker 2: Anything else to add in terms of the note, Oh,

198
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:38,719
Speaker 2: Anthony Richardson, do we have an update on the Colts quarterback? Yeah?

199
00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:41,600
Speaker 2: I did catch him on TV. They when they were

200
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:43,760
Speaker 2: painting to c J. Stroud, you know, after the game

201
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:45,320
Speaker 2: is over, as the players were going on the field,

202
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:49,280
Speaker 2: shake hands, do you know whatever, kiss babies. They did

203
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:52,640
Speaker 2: catch a side of Anthony Richardson and he was hoodie up,

204
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:53,600
Speaker 2: glasses on.

205
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:57,199
Speaker 1: Believe, first time he's been on the sidelines since the injury.

206
00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:59,200
Speaker 1: I think I'd mentioned on last week's pod or maybe

207
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:00,840
Speaker 1: the week before that. I've seen him in the locker

208
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 1: room over the last couple of weeks, so that is new.

209
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:08,400
Speaker 1: You know, there is an Anthony Richardson update, and that's

210
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:11,200
Speaker 1: because Shane Steken typically says very little when it comes

211
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:14,520
Speaker 1: to this stuff. But basically, you know, I asked him

212
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:17,440
Speaker 1: to say, hey, will he be back this season? I

213
00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:20,280
Speaker 1: don't know. We're hopeful for that. He's just resting his

214
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:22,640
Speaker 1: eye right now. He did add a couple of things, though,

215
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,000
Speaker 1: he is doing some weight room work, so it's not

216
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,560
Speaker 1: like he is totally you know, resting.

217
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:30,560
Speaker 2: We also don't know what that entails either, like is

218
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 2: he just done like the treadmills right right?

219
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:35,280
Speaker 1: But that's at least more than he was doing, I

220
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 1: guess is probably the best way to put it.

221
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:38,800
Speaker 2: He tossed it around the iron.

222
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:43,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then he also added, you know, there is

223
00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:47,240
Speaker 1: a a step in the process still to be reached

224
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:50,640
Speaker 1: in terms of full vision. So again, I mean, this

225
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:55,800
Speaker 1: is a significant injury. I think my expressions on this

226
00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:58,960
Speaker 1: podcast here in recent weeks, I hope I've come across

227
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:03,600
Speaker 1: decently accurate of I don't expect Anthony Richardson's return eminently.

228
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:05,720
Speaker 1: And Eddie, I said to you the Monday after the

229
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:08,000
Speaker 1: injury occurred, have we seen the last of him in

230
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:11,000
Speaker 1: a Colt's uniform? So basically, don't hold your breath on

231
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:14,440
Speaker 1: a Richardson return here in the month of December.

232
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:16,600
Speaker 2: That's kind of how I would do it. Yeah. The

233
00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:18,800
Speaker 2: other part tooon to like to even you know, kind

234
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:21,160
Speaker 2: of go back to that question a little bit, is if,

235
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:22,880
Speaker 2: depending on how serious it is, like, is there a

236
00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:24,520
Speaker 2: team out there that would still be willing to trade

237
00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:24,839
Speaker 2: for him?

238
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:26,840
Speaker 1: Sure, I mean clearing that, you know, passing the physical

239
00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:30,080
Speaker 1: and a trade would obviously be something that would be

240
00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:33,680
Speaker 1: you know, critical. With that other injury news, We'll see

241
00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 1: what the walk through injury report looks like. Usually we

242
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:37,120
Speaker 1: get that at some point here in the podcast. Again,

243
00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:40,040
Speaker 1: they're on the Wednesday walk through schedule. Sauce Gardner.

244
00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:43,400
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, it could be you know glide. Ian Rappaport

245
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:48,480
Speaker 2: put that tweet out. Kevin yes Gara or Tom Pellow's

246
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:51,560
Speaker 2: hero sources you know, said that he's not going on

247
00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 2: injury reserve. But I'm pretty sure that the name of

248
00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:59,400
Speaker 2: this podcast. You specifically asked that question on Monday, right,

249
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:02,640
Speaker 2: and Shane Stake and said no, that he would not

250
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:03,840
Speaker 2: go on injured reserve.

251
00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:09,079
Speaker 1: I'm usually not twitter petty media guy, so I apologize

252
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:09,680
Speaker 1: for going there.

253
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 2: That's James Boyd wearing off funny if I've ever seen.

254
00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:15,320
Speaker 1: It, James, I saw the tweet first this morning, and

255
00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:16,920
Speaker 1: he alerted me of it, and I think I had

256
00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:18,720
Speaker 1: just gone on a big Notre Dame rant. So I

257
00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:20,480
Speaker 1: was kind of hot and bothered. I was starting to

258
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:23,520
Speaker 1: sweat a little bit, hot and bothered, and I needed

259
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:25,760
Speaker 1: to get after hot and bothered. I needed to get

260
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:28,200
Speaker 1: after rap Sheet. And usually Schefter is the one I hate.

261
00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 1: Schefter is one that totally ripped my work. This was

262
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:33,440
Speaker 1: probably five or six years ago. It just showed up

263
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:36,040
Speaker 1: my time hop the other day during COVID, just totally

264
00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:39,440
Speaker 1: ripped something I had written and put it as his own.

265
00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:40,240
Speaker 2: I remember that.

266
00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:43,640
Speaker 1: So rap Sheet I really haven't had any issues with,

267
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:45,720
Speaker 1: but yeah, I had to get after him for that

268
00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:50,120
Speaker 1: one there. So basically the Sauce Gardner update is won't

269
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:52,440
Speaker 1: go on ir So of course that would mean four weeks,

270
00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:54,320
Speaker 1: and so he should be back at some point. And

271
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:55,880
Speaker 1: you look fine today in the locker room, definitely moving

272
00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:57,240
Speaker 1: better than he was Sunday. He was doing a little

273
00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:59,319
Speaker 1: Papa shot action in there and look to be in

274
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:01,640
Speaker 1: good spirits. So you know, as you map that out

275
00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:06,760
Speaker 1: at Jacksonville Sunday, not gonna play at Seattle a week

276
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:08,960
Speaker 1: from Sunday. I would assume it doesn't play. You know,

277
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:11,880
Speaker 1: you have that Monday night er on the twenty second,

278
00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 1: That would be three weeks removed from the injury against

279
00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:17,920
Speaker 1: San Francisco. Now you probably should point out then it

280
00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:20,720
Speaker 1: turns into a short week. You go Monday night into

281
00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:23,959
Speaker 1: the six day short week with Jacksonville. And if you're

282
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,480
Speaker 1: ranking these games and most important the rest of the way,

283
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:31,880
Speaker 1: the three AFC South games are one, two, and three, yep.

284
00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:34,160
Speaker 1: And then it drops a bit and then you go

285
00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:38,160
Speaker 1: to San Francisco and Seattle. Now they're all important, let

286
00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:42,719
Speaker 1: me be clear, but you know, I do think you now,

287
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:44,679
Speaker 1: who knows, maybe in two weeks you'll be at a

288
00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:46,480
Speaker 1: point where you got to win them all the rest

289
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:47,960
Speaker 1: of the way to win the division or something along

290
00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:50,120
Speaker 1: those lines. But that Jacksonville game, that's the one that

291
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:52,600
Speaker 1: I circle on the twenty ninth, you know, that would

292
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,440
Speaker 1: be just the home game, not this one on Sunday, correct.

293
00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:55,720
Speaker 2: Correct, correct?

294
00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:57,720
Speaker 1: That would be a little under a month, you know,

295
00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:00,800
Speaker 1: is that and who knows, maybe he'll progress enough to

296
00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:03,520
Speaker 1: where you get him out there for some snaps against

297
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:08,360
Speaker 1: San Francisco And can you imagine this team tackling Christian McCaffrey.

298
00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:13,079
Speaker 2: Boy, well, Jermaine proud to have another twenty tackle game. Gosh,

299
00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:15,000
Speaker 2: I hope. So so there you go.

300
00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:19,840
Speaker 1: That's probably everything from a update. You know, Daniel Jones

301
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,240
Speaker 1: basically should be good to go. Sounds like the fall

302
00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:24,760
Speaker 1: similar practice planned to last week. He's yet to really

303
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:27,400
Speaker 1: miss any practice time. You know, he was limited for

304
00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,240
Speaker 1: the walk through. I will say, like one thing I'd

305
00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:30,720
Speaker 1: probably pushed back with the cults right now is they

306
00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:33,640
Speaker 1: keep on saying, well, there's no limitations with the play

307
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:37,160
Speaker 1: cling well, all right, still us Differently, I would disagree

308
00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:39,440
Speaker 1: with that clearly. I think from a outside of the

309
00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:42,000
Speaker 1: pocket movement and then when stuff breaks down from a

310
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:45,200
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones scrambling movement. You know, he had six scrambles

311
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:51,120
Speaker 1: in Germany and without those the Falcons win in Germany.

312
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 2: Mhm. And if you look at he he's especially on

313
00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:56,520
Speaker 2: that what third down to nineteen it right? Yeah?

314
00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,040
Speaker 1: And third and twenty one he got nineteen, right, I

315
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:02,080
Speaker 1: think that's what it was to set up fourth and two.

316
00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:04,920
Speaker 1: You know, he had two in Kansas City and then

317
00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:07,920
Speaker 1: he had none last week. So I do think that

318
00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:11,520
Speaker 1: element to his game is where the limitations are, So

319
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:14,880
Speaker 1: that probably covers everything from a Colts related standpoint. Maybe

320
00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:16,880
Speaker 1: next week we can get into some guys from a

321
00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 1: Pro Bowl. Another fan voting, I started on that. Maybe

322
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:22,960
Speaker 1: we'll do that a little bit next week. But unless

323
00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:26,280
Speaker 1: you got anything else to add, I'm good to get it.

324
00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:29,440
Speaker 2: In Jacksonville, they suffered some injuries on Sunday and their

325
00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:34,080
Speaker 2: win over Tennessee. Obviously, they are already without their top pick,

326
00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:38,080
Speaker 2: Travis Hunter, wide receiver slash corner, suffered a knee injury.

327
00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:41,120
Speaker 2: He's out for the remainder of the season. Parker Washington,

328
00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:44,200
Speaker 2: a guy who had stepped up kind of with his

329
00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:47,200
Speaker 2: departure and Brian Thomas Junior not being fully healthy. He

330
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:50,560
Speaker 2: exited the game on Sunday against Tennessee with a hip injury.

331
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:53,880
Speaker 2: Did not return. Walker Little, one of their starting tackles,

332
00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:56,520
Speaker 2: left the game on Sunday against Tennessee with a concussion.

333
00:15:57,040 --> 00:15:59,840
Speaker 2: Eric Comstead is on the injury report. Obviously, one of

334
00:15:59,880 --> 00:16:02,440
Speaker 2: the big players up front in the middle, kind of

335
00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:04,600
Speaker 2: like their DeForest Buckner. To kind of put it in

336
00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:08,720
Speaker 2: comparison perspective, Trevon Walker also injured. I'm outside of that.

337
00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:11,240
Speaker 2: You know the names on you know, the offensive side

338
00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:14,760
Speaker 2: of the ball. Probably Trevor Lawrence quarterback having an okay season,

339
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:18,160
Speaker 2: Travis at and kinding having a resurgence year after a

340
00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:20,320
Speaker 2: down year a season ago. Bishell Tooton is the guy

341
00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:21,880
Speaker 2: they mix in every now and then. This guy the

342
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:26,160
Speaker 2: chase a change of paceback. He's really explosive, can rattle

343
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:28,200
Speaker 2: off some big runs and he's a factor in the

344
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:31,160
Speaker 2: past game as well. For the Jacksonville Jaguars, they just

345
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:34,520
Speaker 2: got Brian Thomas junior back having a very underwhelming season.

346
00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:36,840
Speaker 2: Just seems like the connection between him and Lawrences hasn't

347
00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:41,200
Speaker 2: been there. Britain Strange has been a good productive player

348
00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:44,280
Speaker 2: for them. They're tight end. And then Jacoby Myers had

349
00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:47,040
Speaker 2: to break out performance against Tennessee because of the Parker

350
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:50,400
Speaker 2: Washington injury. He was with the Raiders earlier this season.

351
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:54,680
Speaker 2: In their game against Tennessee, he had six catches, ninety

352
00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:59,560
Speaker 2: yards and a touchdown. He's scored in consecutive games for Jacksonville.

353
00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:01,000
Speaker 1: And he has missed some time, but he's back. Like

354
00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:03,800
Speaker 1: you said, Thomas missed some time, he's back. Travis Hunter

355
00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:06,640
Speaker 1: of course out for the year. You know a lot

356
00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:10,080
Speaker 1: of similar faces. Defensively, they did make the cornerback trade

357
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:12,639
Speaker 1: back a few weeks ago, and you know it was funny.

358
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:15,080
Speaker 1: I'm watching Liam Cohen's press conference today and he noticed

359
00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:18,679
Speaker 1: a bit of a bigger media throng there. So I

360
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:21,960
Speaker 1: don't I've never viewed Jacksonville as some hostile environment, which

361
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:25,919
Speaker 1: is Colts fans even more. You haven't won there in

362
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:29,040
Speaker 1: a decade. This is not Arrowhead or anything like that.

363
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:32,439
Speaker 1: But you know, I do think they obviously have a

364
00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:35,520
Speaker 1: ton to play for on Sunday as well, so looking

365
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:36,959
Speaker 1: forward to that. Yeah, I think you laid it out

366
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:40,320
Speaker 1: pretty well. They aren't overly impressive by any means from

367
00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:43,640
Speaker 1: an offensive number standpoint. Their run defense is notable. They

368
00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:45,560
Speaker 1: have been a top ten unit. But you brought up

369
00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:48,679
Speaker 1: the Trayvon Walker injury. That'll be something to keep an

370
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:51,560
Speaker 1: eye on this week. Armstead's availability as well. They both

371
00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:54,960
Speaker 1: missed the Tennessee game. They have really reshuffled the old

372
00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:58,080
Speaker 1: line and had to do that again on Sunday, and

373
00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:00,480
Speaker 1: Liam Cohen's very honest, like, we have to play better

374
00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:04,879
Speaker 1: up front, so that should be an area where you

375
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:09,080
Speaker 1: could have an advantage. And weirdly, Parker Washington, largely due

376
00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:12,200
Speaker 1: to availability, he's actually their leading receiver from a cat standpoint.

377
00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:15,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, and he's also a punt returner for them as well.

378
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:17,760
Speaker 2: He two returns for a touchdown. I believe he got

379
00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:18,239
Speaker 2: banged up.

380
00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 1: So definitely some things to keep an eye on with Jacksonville,

381
00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:25,040
Speaker 1: but again, really sound with the run defense, and obviously

382
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:27,960
Speaker 1: when you play Jonathan Taylor and company, that is a huge,

383
00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:31,960
Speaker 1: huge storyline it shifts into over Trevor Lawrence. It's kind

384
00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:38,440
Speaker 1: of wild, Eddie that Sunday was the first time all

385
00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:44,000
Speaker 1: season Trevor Lawrence has had a passer rating over one hundred. Yeah,

386
00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:48,239
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones has nine of those games this year. Like,

387
00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:50,919
Speaker 1: I don't think you would view Daniel Jones as that

388
00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:53,960
Speaker 1: much better of a quarterback than Trevor Lawrence. If he

389
00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:55,879
Speaker 1: is even better, I mean, that's probably a debate you

390
00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:59,600
Speaker 1: could have, but damn, I mean that's that's a start

391
00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:02,639
Speaker 1: contract between those two quarterbacks this season. And you know,

392
00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:05,520
Speaker 1: I've always said this about the streak in Jacksonville. The

393
00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:08,199
Speaker 1: faces have changed, of course a lot, but there is

394
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:11,800
Speaker 1: one thing that has been very consistent throughout. Their D

395
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:15,640
Speaker 1: line has whipped your O line. I could almost say

396
00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:21,840
Speaker 1: that annually, whether it's Kalais Campbell, Yanniy Kinockway, Josh Allen,

397
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:24,400
Speaker 1: and then when he's changed his name to Josh Heines Allen.

398
00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:28,920
Speaker 1: I mean, they have just whipped you up front. Turnovers

399
00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:33,040
Speaker 1: have also certainly played a part in it. But Lawrence's numbers,

400
00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:39,359
Speaker 1: especially over the last few years, are unbelievable against the Colts.

401
00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:42,240
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I think heired to the career average of him.

402
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:45,199
Speaker 1: I mean, you're talking my fantasy football league, Kevin. I

403
00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:46,760
Speaker 1: have Drake May he's on the by this week, and

404
00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:48,040
Speaker 1: I picked up Trevor Lawrence.

405
00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:50,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't blame you man if it continues.

406
00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:53,639
Speaker 1: I mean it, We're talking like twenty completion percentage points higher,

407
00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:58,280
Speaker 1: passer ratings significantly higher when he plays the Colts. So now,

408
00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:02,280
Speaker 1: again that's obviously Gus Bradley largely, and this is lu Anarumo,

409
00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:06,119
Speaker 1: but still I think that is worth pointing out. And

410
00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:08,119
Speaker 1: the Colts defense, I'm just kind of torn on how

411
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:09,440
Speaker 1: to feel about them right now.

412
00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:12,040
Speaker 2: Yep. Like, in one light, I sit here and.

413
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:15,920
Speaker 1: Say, wait a minute, we've will have three touchdowns in

414
00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:16,960
Speaker 1: the last eight quarters.

415
00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:18,879
Speaker 2: That's great.

416
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:23,080
Speaker 1: But then in the other light, they've played one hundred

417
00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:28,159
Speaker 1: and seventy three snaps. Yeah, that is a huge number.

418
00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:31,080
Speaker 1: They're not getting off the field timely. Nope, I believe

419
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:35,479
Speaker 1: I added it up Eddie twenty drives, real drives, tack

420
00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:37,560
Speaker 1: out the Neil downs Kansas City and Houston. The last

421
00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:40,800
Speaker 1: two weeks, nine of the twenty have been double digit plays.

422
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:43,920
Speaker 1: So what happens when that occurs.

423
00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:46,679
Speaker 2: You're not getting stops on third down, You're.

424
00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:48,520
Speaker 1: Not getting stops on the third down, they're flipping the

425
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:52,919
Speaker 1: field and you're limiting your offense's touches. Yeah, you know,

426
00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:55,640
Speaker 1: so the complimentary football. Yes, your offense is obviously has.

427
00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:56,080
Speaker 2: Some issues here.

428
00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:58,840
Speaker 1: I don't want to ignore that, but I really think

429
00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:01,520
Speaker 1: the field position hurt the Colts big time here.

430
00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:04,800
Speaker 2: And a lot of times. You know, Rigoberto Sangez has

431
00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:08,200
Speaker 2: done a stupendous job at you know, pinning the opposing

432
00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:13,800
Speaker 2: offense deep and they're just chunking out yards. Yeah. So again,

433
00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:15,639
Speaker 2: I know the punt unit wasn't great on Sunday.

434
00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:19,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, certainly Kansas City, they definitely did a good job

435
00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,840
Speaker 1: and really weren't rewarded for it.

436
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:25,360
Speaker 2: Eric Mury Eric Murray, by the way, another player to

437
00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:29,239
Speaker 2: monitor for Jacksonville last week. He's I think he's their

438
00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:33,320
Speaker 2: starting safety. He had his twenty one day practice window

439
00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:37,040
Speaker 2: open up a week a week a week ago, and

440
00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:39,399
Speaker 2: it sounds like he is trending towards playing this week.

441
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:44,000
Speaker 2: He was on the practice field today, Walker, Little Parker, Washington,

442
00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:48,480
Speaker 2: Andrew Wingard were not spotted. Trayvon Walker with that knee issue.

443
00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:51,480
Speaker 2: Kevin he was spotted off to the sides, off to

444
00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:55,639
Speaker 2: the side with trainers today. Devin Lloyd, Patrick McCarry, and

445
00:21:55,640 --> 00:22:00,119
Speaker 2: Antonio Johnson were at practice with non contact jersey.

446
00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:05,439
Speaker 1: So several notable names among that group there. You know,

447
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:06,840
Speaker 1: there's a reason why I'm not going to bring up

448
00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:09,000
Speaker 1: the streak until twenty six minutes into the podcast, but

449
00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:11,840
Speaker 1: it's hard not to acknowledge it when this game does

450
00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:14,000
Speaker 1: pop up on the schedule. There's times I felt like

451
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:18,200
Speaker 1: the Colts have a better chance of winning an Alcatraz

452
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:22,520
Speaker 1: than they do winning in Jacksonville. But I'm reminded of

453
00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:24,240
Speaker 1: this every time the game pops up on the schedule,

454
00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:26,440
Speaker 1: and I do have a little ounce of optimism here

455
00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:30,520
Speaker 1: in a few minutes. Okay, but Eddie, this streak started

456
00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:35,600
Speaker 1: in twenty fifteen. At that point, when the Colts traveled

457
00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:40,480
Speaker 1: down to Jacksonville to play, they had won sixteen straight

458
00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:41,679
Speaker 1: AFC South games.

459
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:47,760
Speaker 2: Sixteen straight divisional games. Think about that. I mean, that

460
00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:48,640
Speaker 2: is amazing.

461
00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:54,479
Speaker 1: And they go down there with Matt Hasselbeck quarterback and

462
00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:58,080
Speaker 1: they are leading late first half, and if I remember correctly,

463
00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:00,879
Speaker 1: there are some sort of strip sacksis situation just kind

464
00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:04,240
Speaker 1: of a chaotic ending to the first half and the

465
00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:07,040
Speaker 1: Colts had a lead. I think it was sixteen thirteen,

466
00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:11,840
Speaker 1: and next thing you know, Jacksonville wins fifty one to sixteen.

467
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:18,160
Speaker 2: And that started. Now you want optimism, All streaks end eventually.

468
00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:20,440
Speaker 2: Well tell that.

469
00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:26,679
Speaker 1: To Joe Demaggio. Sixteen straight divisional games? Right, that was

470
00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:32,959
Speaker 1: week fourteen of the twenty fifteen season. What week are

471
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:38,520
Speaker 1: we in? Sunday fourteen? Week fourteen of the twenty twenty

472
00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:42,600
Speaker 1: five seasons? Ten years after it started? Same week?

473
00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:48,280
Speaker 2: Does it end? Is that the you hear that music?

474
00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:54,040
Speaker 2: Do you believe in that stuff? Oh? Yeah, you do? Yeah? Like?

475
00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:56,480
Speaker 1: Do believe Jacksonville is a cur like? Do you think that.

476
00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:01,160
Speaker 2: With the ways they have lost? Yes? Absolutely? Do you believe?

477
00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:03,560
Speaker 1: Even though Daniel Jones has probably never even heard of

478
00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:05,960
Speaker 1: the streak until someone asked him in the Meat You

479
00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:07,320
Speaker 1: Throng on Wednesday.

480
00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:10,240
Speaker 2: And according to Zaia Franklin. None of the stuff that's

481
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:11,359
Speaker 2: happened previously matters.

482
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:14,320
Speaker 1: Well, again, there are some Colts that have been a

483
00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:18,600
Speaker 1: part of that something that haven't. Again, it's amazing. Uh

484
00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:21,479
Speaker 1: the streak involves eight different quarterbacks. Anthony Richardson, by the way,

485
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:26,080
Speaker 1: never lost in Jacksonville. Maybe point that out there, Minshew

486
00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:28,440
Speaker 1: and Flacco. It's the last two years. The starting quarterback

487
00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:31,679
Speaker 1: the last time Colts beat the Jags for Jacksonville, that

488
00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:34,480
Speaker 1: is Andrew Lucke of course, of the Colts starting q

489
00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:36,720
Speaker 1: be for the Jags and leading rusher for the Jags

490
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:38,600
Speaker 1: Blake Bortles. Can you get but they both went to

491
00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:39,360
Speaker 1: the same college.

492
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:45,120
Speaker 2: Oh so you're saying this quarterback went to Stanford? No, no, no, no, no?

493
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:50,040
Speaker 2: Oh the Russiaville the rusher and the quarterback were they

494
00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:51,480
Speaker 2: teammates in college? Uh?

495
00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:57,040
Speaker 1: Boy, I'm gonna say no, no, no, no, no, no, I'm

496
00:24:57,040 --> 00:24:57,520
Speaker 1: gonna say no.

497
00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:01,520
Speaker 2: Is it Brackassweiler? No? That would be Texans? Right, Yeah,

498
00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:02,000
Speaker 2: that's right.

499
00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:05,600
Speaker 1: The quarterback I think also want to super get a hint?

500
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:08,040
Speaker 2: Can I get recently? Super? Yeah? I would call this

501
00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:11,639
Speaker 2: a blue blood college football program. Blue blood? You saying

502
00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:17,320
Speaker 2: blue blood? I don't like him is because you're a

503
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:19,840
Speaker 2: note of d am fan or because of other things. Mmm.

504
00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:29,119
Speaker 1: One Chad Henney under center and the leading rusher positional

505
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:34,480
Speaker 1: change Denard Robinson. Oh wow, how about that blasts in

506
00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:37,000
Speaker 1: the past. Yeah, fifty one to sixteen and twenty fifteen.

507
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:39,520
Speaker 1: Then you played in London the next year. Blake Bortles

508
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:42,920
Speaker 1: beat you. Bortles beat you again in seventeen. That was

509
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:45,080
Speaker 1: late in the year, if I remember correctly. Twenty eighteen

510
00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:46,919
Speaker 1: is probably the most egregious of them all. That was

511
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:50,640
Speaker 1: six nothing with Cody Kessler starting. They had a million

512
00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:54,199
Speaker 1: drives in Jacksonville territory. For some reason, Frank Reich never

513
00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:56,840
Speaker 1: decided to kick a field goal and they got stuffed

514
00:25:56,880 --> 00:25:59,960
Speaker 1: and stuffed and stuff that was not good at all.

515
00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:03,080
Speaker 1: Twenty nineteen was Gardner Minshew blowing you out. That was

516
00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:06,639
Speaker 1: Minshew with the Jags. Twenty twenty the only win of

517
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:10,680
Speaker 1: the season for Jacksonville Philip Rivers' first game, the season opener.

518
00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:13,760
Speaker 1: The one that probably bothers the Colts the most would

519
00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:16,800
Speaker 1: be twenty one. That was playoff Berth on the line.

520
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:19,280
Speaker 1: You get blown out there in week seventeen. I want

521
00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:21,600
Speaker 1: to say Lakwan Treadwell had the first touchdown of the game,

522
00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:25,480
Speaker 1: and Elser Jacksonville twenty twenty two was oh shit, Matt

523
00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:28,360
Speaker 1: Ryan sucks. That was twenty four to nothing in a shutout.

524
00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:32,160
Speaker 2: Whoa, whoa? Did you really need to add that in there?

525
00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:35,560
Speaker 1: Twenty twenty three got rolled and last year was a shootout.

526
00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:37,040
Speaker 1: Right Flacco kind of got you back.

527
00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:38,960
Speaker 2: In the game. I got a change the disclaimer now

528
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:40,000
Speaker 2: on YouTube because of that.

529
00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:43,360
Speaker 1: I think it's worth coussing about this three well Cam

530
00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:45,600
Speaker 1: Little Hilllefield goal the buzzer right to beat you.

531
00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:46,960
Speaker 2: He did.

532
00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:49,320
Speaker 1: I think so that's all right. Cam Little's got a

533
00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:50,960
Speaker 1: leg right, better kicker matchup.

534
00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:54,199
Speaker 2: They've got it right in this one, I would say so.

535
00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:56,520
Speaker 2: I would say, so, there you go. That's all I got.

536
00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:58,720
Speaker 2: You got anything else? I have Twitter time? Yeah, I

537
00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:01,320
Speaker 2: have nothing else to add in to the Jacksonville front.

538
00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:03,720
Speaker 2: So let's get into twitter questions Tanful. Then the start

539
00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:07,280
Speaker 2: we start with I Helix Kevin. It seems that the

540
00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:10,040
Speaker 2: Colts offensive line does an elite job run blocking, but

541
00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:13,639
Speaker 2: the pass blocking is just bad. Who are the wink links?

542
00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:19,280
Speaker 2: And is it scheme? I think it's a lot less

543
00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:21,000
Speaker 2: to do with the fact that. I mean, the old

544
00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:24,399
Speaker 2: line hasn't been great pass blocking, but it just seems

545
00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:28,080
Speaker 2: like keV almost on every drop back now, defenses are

546
00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:31,919
Speaker 2: bringing six to seven guys and so every offensive lineman's

547
00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:34,360
Speaker 2: left one on one or there's there's one guy that's

548
00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:35,680
Speaker 2: running free.

549
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:40,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, I I do feel generally, like my

550
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:43,120
Speaker 1: eye test would say this now, it sounds like Notre

551
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:46,840
Speaker 1: Dame here. My eye test would say there has been

552
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:49,920
Speaker 1: more pressure, like pockets have been muddier. It's probably the

553
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:52,119
Speaker 1: better way to put it. Yep, that Daniel Jones had

554
00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:54,000
Speaker 1: to operate in. But then you go back and you

555
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:56,240
Speaker 1: look at the numbers for Sunday. He was sacked one

556
00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:57,720
Speaker 1: time and hit like four times.

557
00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:00,240
Speaker 2: Mm hmm. Would you have signed up for that can

558
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:04,840
Speaker 2: go minimal movement? He was right, So I'm.

559
00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:07,000
Speaker 1: Like, well, damn, I mean he didn't really get sacked

560
00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:09,600
Speaker 1: or hit that that much. You know, I'd say right

561
00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:12,200
Speaker 1: side of the line is probably where you've had more issues.

562
00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:14,560
Speaker 1: I think you have had some issues at times, just

563
00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:18,800
Speaker 1: strictly with free uh free rushers. Johnathan Taylor I think

564
00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:21,479
Speaker 1: has had a few breakdowns as well.

565
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:24,160
Speaker 2: A couple of limes. Yeah, boy, that was that was mean,

566
00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:27,480
Speaker 2: what will Anderson that was like, that was like, well,

567
00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:28,960
Speaker 2: Anderson was just pushing the sled.

568
00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:32,160
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, man, that yeah looked like me put

569
00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:33,200
Speaker 1: Max Boone on the couch.

570
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:35,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was that was rough.

571
00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:39,440
Speaker 1: So I hear you out, you know, certainly, But I'm

572
00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:42,960
Speaker 1: kind of like, damn, I don't you know weak.

573
00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:43,880
Speaker 2: Links is a scheme.

574
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:45,840
Speaker 1: I'd say a little bits the right side, But like,

575
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:48,840
Speaker 1: I don't think the offensive line is to blame for

576
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:50,840
Speaker 1: this three out of four loosing streak. I think it's

577
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:55,080
Speaker 1: probably multifaceted. And Jacksonville has not been a very good

578
00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:58,840
Speaker 1: sacking team this season so and not a great pressure team.

579
00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:00,920
Speaker 1: Now they have been good against a run, but not

580
00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:02,680
Speaker 1: the other stuff. Q.

581
00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:06,680
Speaker 2: Are we ever going to fix our pass rush? Either

582
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:10,760
Speaker 2: we suck at scouting and evaluating talent and development or both.

583
00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:14,280
Speaker 2: And it's been that way for years under Chris Ballard.

584
00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:20,520
Speaker 2: Yet it's year number nine. Yeah.

585
00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:24,440
Speaker 1: The most disappointing positional aspect of the Ballad era is

586
00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:25,360
Speaker 1: the edge rush.

587
00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:28,440
Speaker 2: I had somebody mention this to me on Jake's show

588
00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:30,840
Speaker 2: the other day. I was talking about how, you know,

589
00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:34,800
Speaker 2: in the couple of games with Sauce Gardner that you've had.

590
00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:39,160
Speaker 2: Just doesn't feel like there have been those quote unquote

591
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:42,680
Speaker 2: coverage sacks like if you go to that Kens City game,

592
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:46,840
Speaker 2: my homes had all day, even when there was good coverage,

593
00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:50,040
Speaker 2: Like well, Eddie, he got sacked four times, Like but yeah,

594
00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:53,360
Speaker 2: look at the yardage. Four sacks from minus six yards,

595
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:56,840
Speaker 2: Like two of them were technically a sack that went

596
00:29:56,920 --> 00:30:00,440
Speaker 2: down for note no loss, one for two and then

597
00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:01,560
Speaker 2: you do the math on the rest.

598
00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:06,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, it just does not feel like you create edge

599
00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:08,160
Speaker 1: pressure and when.

600
00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:09,880
Speaker 2: You do, they're and when and when they do, it

601
00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:14,320
Speaker 2: doesn't feel like they're impactful. No, No, yeah, neither I

602
00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:16,880
Speaker 2: feel like you're losing ten yards or you know, it's

603
00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:18,680
Speaker 2: on a third down or something like that.

604
00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:21,280
Speaker 1: No, and I don't feel like you know you're getting

605
00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:23,240
Speaker 1: the edge pressure. That's like, damn, you should give that

606
00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:25,280
Speaker 1: dude to half a sack for it, you know, when

607
00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:27,720
Speaker 1: he gets pushed into whatever buckner making a sack in

608
00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:29,719
Speaker 1: the interior. I mean, hell, one of your best rushes

609
00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:32,040
Speaker 1: from Sunday, arguably your best rush is from Chris Warmly.

610
00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:35,080
Speaker 1: It was like ninety six Taven Brian.

611
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:38,600
Speaker 2: Back had a nice rush again on Sunday.

612
00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:40,720
Speaker 1: Right, I guess best rush and finish of the play. Yeah,

613
00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:42,920
Speaker 1: if I'm not mistaken, I think touimlaw was the only

614
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:47,760
Speaker 1: one with edge hurries. Yeah, only pay or Lewis or

615
00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:51,080
Speaker 1: Latsu had or Epicon. I have to go back and

616
00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:54,880
Speaker 1: double check that, but yeah, it's just, uh, there's.

617
00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:56,080
Speaker 2: Just not enough, not enough.

618
00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:59,040
Speaker 1: And again on paper, this is a clear advantage for

619
00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:01,160
Speaker 1: you Sunday and I get to Lawrence has a little

620
00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:05,920
Speaker 1: bit more of probably capability than Stroud. But still it

621
00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:10,320
Speaker 1: just if there's been so much investments, Q also there,

622
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:12,360
Speaker 1: you know, and it goes back to you know whatever

623
00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:15,760
Speaker 1: Basham and Terrey and Bannago. I mean you had you know,

624
00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:20,959
Speaker 1: notable draft investments very early in the Ballard tenure and

625
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:23,920
Speaker 1: it's just been you know, Terrey, I guess would be

626
00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:26,200
Speaker 1: the other one. I mean there's just been a been

627
00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:28,400
Speaker 1: a lot of it and hasn't worked out at all.

628
00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:31,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, tuoim Mola the only one with multiple quarterback hits

629
00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:36,680
Speaker 2: against Houston. Another line that I don't think is great,

630
00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:39,200
Speaker 2: Wormley had one here Overhead.

631
00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:41,840
Speaker 1: One good lines. I mean Seattle had he Tommy, while

632
00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:44,840
Speaker 1: adri head one. Seattle might be the best in San Francisco.

633
00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:49,440
Speaker 2: I always thought on that, yep, especially with Trent Williams

634
00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:52,560
Speaker 2: over there on the left side. Three questions left, Garrett,

635
00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:54,760
Speaker 2: My parents got me two tickets to the game in

636
00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:57,800
Speaker 2: Jacksonville on Sunday as a birthday gift. Have you been

637
00:31:57,840 --> 00:31:59,640
Speaker 2: to a game down there? And if so, do you

638
00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:03,960
Speaker 2: have any Jacksonville spots for pre or postgame? Thanks to

639
00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:08,480
Speaker 2: you and Eddie is always cheers. Get that's Garretts. Happy belated,

640
00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:14,200
Speaker 2: Happy birthday, Happy birthday to you boy.

641
00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:16,400
Speaker 1: I mean again, when I'd go, it'd be a quick,

642
00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:20,720
Speaker 1: quick in and out story of my life. David Busters, Really,

643
00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:22,480
Speaker 1: what do you mean by that? Is where we would

644
00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:22,960
Speaker 1: venture to?

645
00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:25,440
Speaker 2: What do you mean by that? Kevin? Huh uh? That

646
00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:27,920
Speaker 2: was the closest thing in the hotel. Have you ever

647
00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:32,000
Speaker 2: heard Joli Rickson rant about Jacksonville? No, you should ask

648
00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:32,880
Speaker 2: him about Kansas City.

649
00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:35,920
Speaker 1: Oh no, you gotta dask about Jacksonville. So Joeli Rickson,

650
00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:38,479
Speaker 1: I know all Colts fans, now you know, just an

651
00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:41,480
Speaker 1: exemplar or human being. He's got three sons. It'd be

652
00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:43,240
Speaker 1: a dream if one of my two daughters could marry

653
00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:44,760
Speaker 1: one of the Rickson boys. I just I think that

654
00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:46,560
Speaker 1: highly of Joel. I mean that all seriousness. Think he

655
00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:50,080
Speaker 1: was a terrific human. This man talks about Jacksonville like

656
00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:55,280
Speaker 1: it's a feces. I mean, he just hates the place.

657
00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:58,280
Speaker 1: I believe his bitching and moaning this week was it's

658
00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:03,600
Speaker 1: to inland. He wants it on the water. Oh upon

659
00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:06,480
Speaker 1: a vidra. So, if you've ever watched the tour, not

660
00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:09,040
Speaker 1: the Tour Championship, the Players Championship for the PGA Tour,

661
00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:11,920
Speaker 1: the TPC sawgrass of the island green that rings the

662
00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:12,320
Speaker 1: bell at all.

663
00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:13,960
Speaker 2: Nope, that's a little bit more water based.

664
00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:16,000
Speaker 1: I want to say that Colts may even stay out there,

665
00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:18,320
Speaker 1: but yeah, it was always Dave and Busters.

666
00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:20,400
Speaker 2: I'm thinking Saturday night there. I can picture it right now.

667
00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:25,000
Speaker 1: Gosh, you know, it's talk about a awful trip, but hey,

668
00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:28,320
Speaker 1: as long as it's not rainy. Garrett good tempts in Florida.

669
00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:29,400
Speaker 1: There have you ever been?

670
00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:31,800
Speaker 2: No, I have not. I have family down there in Jacksonville,

671
00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:33,320
Speaker 2: though I've never been.

672
00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:37,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just never really loved the trip in general.

673
00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:38,560
Speaker 1: I mean, obviously it was nice to get out of

674
00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:41,480
Speaker 1: this weather, but you know, the atmosphere I thought was

675
00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:44,560
Speaker 1: very dull. I mean, I went with Jacksonville was pretty

676
00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:47,040
Speaker 1: bad too, I mean lately they've been a little bit

677
00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:49,280
Speaker 1: bitter and Jacksone's kind of a weird team. Like two

678
00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:51,280
Speaker 1: years ago, at this time, Eddie, they were the one seed.

679
00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:54,720
Speaker 2: Remember they just kind of fell off a cliff. Yep.

680
00:33:56,920 --> 00:33:58,640
Speaker 1: Trying to think who was even that was Doug Peterson,

681
00:33:58,720 --> 00:33:59,560
Speaker 1: head coach for that team.

682
00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:01,640
Speaker 2: You know, it's kind of similar to what you said

683
00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:06,400
Speaker 2: in and out right quickly. Yeah, yeah, something like that. Yeah.

684
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:09,560
Speaker 2: I don't know what you mean by that though. Yeah,

685
00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:12,040
Speaker 2: and we got any other questions, Yeah, we've got two

686
00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:15,880
Speaker 2: nice recall from Jamie. If I remember at the beginning

687
00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:18,080
Speaker 2: of the season, you said the Colts need to stop

688
00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:22,080
Speaker 2: two streaks for this season to be considered successful. Opening

689
00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:25,480
Speaker 2: week losses and losing at Jacksonville, I would be heading

690
00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:28,440
Speaker 2: to Florida for the game. Do they break the streak

691
00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:30,120
Speaker 2: and save their season? Yeah?

692
00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:35,800
Speaker 1: I'm not overly sold on Jacksonville, Adam?

693
00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:37,600
Speaker 2: Is that me and Eddie? Are you sold on them?

694
00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:38,200
Speaker 2: At eight and four?

695
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:41,960
Speaker 1: Like they turn over it like none others part of

696
00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:46,279
Speaker 1: the year yep, and then impressive with the Chargers, but

697
00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:52,120
Speaker 1: like I mean, miracle survivals over the Raiders and Cardinals.

698
00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:57,560
Speaker 2: So I just I don't know Man, I don't like,

699
00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:00,560
Speaker 2: I don't put the race. I don't what the Cardinals

700
00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:02,600
Speaker 2: went in the same category because if you just look

701
00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:06,080
Speaker 2: at Arizona. Yeah, obviously the Colts struggle with it. Well,

702
00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:08,759
Speaker 2: they're competing in every game. If you look at most

703
00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:10,520
Speaker 2: of their losses, they're buy a field goal or buy

704
00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:12,759
Speaker 2: a touchdown and they have the ball late. They just

705
00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:15,799
Speaker 2: can't you know, win it at the end.

706
00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:18,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, obviously we'll we'll give our picks here

707
00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:18,800
Speaker 1: in a few minutes.

708
00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:21,520
Speaker 2: But I just don't like. I think the.

709
00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:25,640
Speaker 1: The team in the AFC South I would probably fear

710
00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:29,520
Speaker 1: the most. If I were another AFC playoff team, it's

711
00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:30,320
Speaker 1: probably Houston.

712
00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:32,240
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that defense with those two wrestlers.

713
00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:34,960
Speaker 1: Man, But I mean if they lose Sunday, I mean

714
00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:37,279
Speaker 1: that they are well behind the eight ball still just

715
00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:40,080
Speaker 1: because they're a game back. Yeah, and you know a

716
00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:44,680
Speaker 1: loss on Sunda would obviously you know, create one more there. Like,

717
00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:46,680
Speaker 1: I mean, if you're a Colts fan, screw Kansas City.

718
00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:48,680
Speaker 1: You got a cheer for him. You aren't in any

719
00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:50,359
Speaker 1: boat to be greedy about trying to get the Chiefs

720
00:35:50,360 --> 00:35:51,040
Speaker 1: out of the playoffs.

721
00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:56,080
Speaker 2: So yeah, and Houston's defeated the Colts and they've you know,

722
00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:57,320
Speaker 2: they split with Jacksonville.

723
00:35:58,000 --> 00:35:59,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, so we'll give our picks here in a few

724
00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:01,239
Speaker 1: which she'll probably answer the question more.

725
00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:04,800
Speaker 2: Yeah. Final Twitter questions from Colton, say, Daniel Jones doesn't

726
00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:08,759
Speaker 2: resign with Indianapolis's offseason, what is your plan?

727
00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:15,080
Speaker 1: B Well, that hypothetical, I guess I don't see happening again.

728
00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:17,400
Speaker 1: You can slap the franchise tag on him if you

729
00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:20,520
Speaker 1: would like, I you know, I mean, technically Anthea Richardson

730
00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:21,960
Speaker 1: is under contract for a fourth year.

731
00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:22,640
Speaker 2: I don't.

732
00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:25,239
Speaker 1: I haven't even looked at the free agent quarterbacks. I mean,

733
00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:27,719
Speaker 1: I think the only way this question becomes realistic, Eddie

734
00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:29,839
Speaker 1: is if the season bottom's out and you blow it up.

735
00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:33,359
Speaker 1: But wouldn't you have to get in the trade market somehow?

736
00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:38,080
Speaker 1: Mac Jones, Oh gosh, that'll make you want to face

737
00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:41,399
Speaker 1: plan in the snow. Mac Jones not a free agent,

738
00:36:41,440 --> 00:36:43,040
Speaker 1: but he'd be one of those in that you know,

739
00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:49,399
Speaker 1: discussion of Davis Mills. I laugh because if I wasn't laughing,

740
00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:50,000
Speaker 1: I'd be crying.

741
00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:53,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess, you know.

742
00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:58,680
Speaker 1: Again, the only way I don't think Jones would be

743
00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:02,680
Speaker 1: the starter is if some team just first off this

744
00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:03,880
Speaker 1: season would have to bottom out.

745
00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:06,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's not a free agent quarterback out there that

746
00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:08,200
Speaker 2: you can look it like. Yeah, that guy could be

747
00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:09,520
Speaker 2: given an opportunity and.

748
00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:12,680
Speaker 1: He'd you know, again, just to entertain Colton's question, they.

749
00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:14,600
Speaker 2: Would literally be Daniel Jones. He'd be the top court.

750
00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:16,279
Speaker 1: Season would have to go. It'd have to be a

751
00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:18,640
Speaker 1: horrific finish of the season. They'd probably have to fire

752
00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:22,200
Speaker 1: both Ballad and Stiching. That means new regime, and anytime

753
00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:25,600
Speaker 1: it's a new regime, no one's safe. Maybe that regime

754
00:37:25,640 --> 00:37:27,359
Speaker 1: would look at it. And again I'm just I mean,

755
00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:28,960
Speaker 1: I literally just thought of this off on my head,

756
00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:30,480
Speaker 1: and maybe that regime looks at it and says, you

757
00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:32,640
Speaker 1: know what, we don't have a first round pick for

758
00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:36,000
Speaker 1: the next two years. We've got that, We've got that

759
00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:40,040
Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson kid. Let's playing for you final Yers rookie deal.

760
00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:45,719
Speaker 1: I yeah, I And then I mean, helly, then you

761
00:37:45,719 --> 00:37:47,439
Speaker 1: still don't have your first round pick in twenty seven.

762
00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:50,560
Speaker 1: That trade was quite the trade. And think about it,

763
00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:56,560
Speaker 1: uh Illness Ankle for Kenny Moore Ankle for Taekwon Lewis

764
00:37:58,280 --> 00:38:01,680
Speaker 1: calf Or Sauce Gardner hip and knee for Josh Downs.

765
00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:05,720
Speaker 1: Those are your dnps from today, gonna walk.

766
00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:08,480
Speaker 2: Through Daniel Jones full, Jalen Carlights full.

767
00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:10,759
Speaker 1: So that's a change from Jones right last week. He

768
00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:14,120
Speaker 1: was technically limited on Wednesday.

769
00:38:14,239 --> 00:38:15,560
Speaker 2: Yeah. I thought it was funny how there was that.

770
00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:19,239
Speaker 2: You know, James Boyd did a great job capturing, you know,

771
00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:23,279
Speaker 2: the struggling Daniel Jones in practice. I forget whatever day

772
00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:25,960
Speaker 2: that was, yeah, Thursday, that was Thanksgiving? Yeah, and then

773
00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:30,719
Speaker 2: on leaving the table, then on Friday he made notes like, yeah,

774
00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:33,000
Speaker 2: he certainly hasn't taken every rep today, and then they

775
00:38:33,080 --> 00:38:34,719
Speaker 2: listed him as full. Yeah.

776
00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:36,560
Speaker 1: I know. It's always weird, man. You and I have

777
00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:39,560
Speaker 1: had this discussion before. You know, limited can mean one

778
00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:40,720
Speaker 1: percent or ninety nine percent.

779
00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:48,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, so there you go. What's your worry there? Downs? Yeah,

780
00:38:49,640 --> 00:38:52,960
Speaker 2: for sure, especially because he's got two injuries. Yeah.

781
00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:55,080
Speaker 1: I definitely remember seeing him in the locker room today

782
00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:57,440
Speaker 1: and I think he had his jersey on, which usually

783
00:38:57,440 --> 00:38:59,960
Speaker 1: indicates you participate during the walk there.

784
00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:05,080
Speaker 2: So even though they listen him as a DNP, Yeah, wow,

785
00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:07,640
Speaker 2: isn't this like an estimation of what the practice report

786
00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:12,120
Speaker 2: would be? Right? It's not like, yes, walk through participat

787
00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:13,280
Speaker 2: I mean walk through Wednesday.

788
00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:15,480
Speaker 1: If you're not able to participate in a walk through,

789
00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:19,080
Speaker 1: they could wheelchair you through the walk through, right, could

790
00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:24,600
Speaker 1: they not? The cults are favored, right they are. You

791
00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:25,320
Speaker 1: want to go first, you know?

792
00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:30,359
Speaker 2: Before we do that, can I ask you one question

793
00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:33,879
Speaker 2: that's not towards you know, the NFL or quick Yeah,

794
00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:36,200
Speaker 2: how the hell did Diego Pavia go from not being

795
00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:38,160
Speaker 2: in contineration for the Heisman at number two? Now?

796
00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:41,839
Speaker 1: I know the odds are really aren't there. The three

797
00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:44,680
Speaker 1: quarterbacks are all like plus one fifty to ninety years.

798
00:39:44,719 --> 00:39:46,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, and Pavey is number two. Yeah, I know. I

799
00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:49,680
Speaker 2: think SEC country is going to vote for Pavia like widespread.

800
00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:52,080
Speaker 1: Is it because he's got like the Johnny Manzil I

801
00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:54,080
Speaker 1: think a little bit of that, And honestly, I think

802
00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:55,160
Speaker 1: it's a down year for the Heisman.

803
00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:56,200
Speaker 2: Let me start there. Yep.

804
00:39:56,560 --> 00:39:59,759
Speaker 1: When you compare any of the numbers and if it's

805
00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:02,640
Speaker 1: a low scoring Big ten game, then I think you're gonna.

806
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:03,520
Speaker 2: Get more of that. Yeah. Probably.

807
00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:06,880
Speaker 1: You know, it's just we've had like saying it's like

808
00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:09,800
Speaker 1: he's got these two wide outs, and then with with Mendoza,

809
00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:11,960
Speaker 1: it's like he's had these Heisman moments, but he's also

810
00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:14,000
Speaker 1: had the Heisman moments because he just threw an interception.

811
00:40:15,680 --> 00:40:17,480
Speaker 1: You know, like Oregon and Penn State were set up

812
00:40:17,920 --> 00:40:19,799
Speaker 1: and Iowa right, all three of them. I think we're

813
00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:22,520
Speaker 1: all set up because of fourth quarter interceptions from him

814
00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:26,640
Speaker 1: which led to the necessary you know, late drives, which

815
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:29,520
Speaker 1: you know, obviously credit to him. It's great resolve and

816
00:40:29,920 --> 00:40:32,600
Speaker 1: definitely shows you something. But it's just not a great

817
00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:34,600
Speaker 1: year for the Heisman. I guess the easiest way to

818
00:40:34,719 --> 00:40:37,279
Speaker 1: put it, and my brief Notre Dame rant, how the

819
00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:40,680
Speaker 1: hell can the committee sit there and say, Alabama beating

820
00:40:41,320 --> 00:40:44,320
Speaker 1: one sec win Auburn with an interim coach. If you

821
00:40:44,360 --> 00:40:46,600
Speaker 1: watch that game, you would have seen an Auburn team

822
00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:49,080
Speaker 1: that was horrific of football almost winning that game. They

823
00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:53,279
Speaker 1: had seven drops, eight drops. Maybe how do they let

824
00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:57,560
Speaker 1: me mention briefly, Auburn's a lone sec win Arkansas by

825
00:40:57,600 --> 00:41:00,000
Speaker 1: one possession. Notre Dame went to Arkansas beat him. My,

826
00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:04,600
Speaker 1: so Notre Dame goes out to Stanford. They covered the

827
00:41:04,600 --> 00:41:05,880
Speaker 1: spread by halftime.

828
00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:06,000
Speaker 2: Of that game.

829
00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:08,360
Speaker 1: Sam Pittman fired. They got Sam Pittman fired. That was

830
00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:12,040
Speaker 1: pre interim head coach of Arkansas. Notre Dame goes out

831
00:41:12,080 --> 00:41:17,719
Speaker 1: of Stanford covers by halftime and they drop like and

832
00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:21,320
Speaker 1: none of this is discussing head to head, none of that.

833
00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:23,880
Speaker 1: Simply the committee told us last night that was why

834
00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:29,279
Speaker 1: Alabama climbed because they beat Auburn by seven.

835
00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:33,480
Speaker 2: They showed the resolve to believe I'm back and deliver

836
00:41:33,600 --> 00:41:36,520
Speaker 2: after Auburn tied it, they went down and the fourth

837
00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:37,200
Speaker 2: and two call.

838
00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:40,080
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, I'm like, I am not one to

839
00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:44,120
Speaker 1: believe SEC bias, but holy Nikes, not look good for

840
00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:45,480
Speaker 1: my Irish say least.

841
00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:48,520
Speaker 2: No Texas Tech. Right, yeah, you can't have Buyu winning

842
00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:49,120
Speaker 2: that big twelve.

843
00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:50,880
Speaker 1: But then again, then does Miami get next to him?

844
00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:51,879
Speaker 1: And then do you go with head to head?

845
00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:54,920
Speaker 2: I mean, at this point, you've had a Notre Dame

846
00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:57,319
Speaker 2: over my over Miami for what three straight weeks? Four

847
00:41:57,360 --> 00:41:57,839
Speaker 2: straight weeks.

848
00:41:58,040 --> 00:42:00,160
Speaker 1: That's another thing I'd like to gripe about. But I'll

849
00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:02,440
Speaker 1: say that for next week. If you had them to

850
00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:05,560
Speaker 1: fill it far apart for a month, what has changed.

851
00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:07,160
Speaker 1: If you compare their resumes side by side of the

852
00:42:07,280 --> 00:42:09,719
Speaker 1: last month, it's very similar. Old teams beat Pittsburgh by

853
00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:11,880
Speaker 1: the same amount, held anuder name beat Syracuse by one

854
00:42:11,960 --> 00:42:16,719
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty. Yeah, but I cannot afford to get

855
00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:18,080
Speaker 1: more gray hair between now on Sunday.

856
00:42:18,239 --> 00:42:20,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, I also can't. I'll say that I can't ignore

857
00:42:20,280 --> 00:42:21,759
Speaker 2: the fact I get they played head to head, but

858
00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:24,799
Speaker 2: like that was the first start of the j Car's career.

859
00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:26,840
Speaker 2: It's prime time. You know, you're the only game on

860
00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:29,720
Speaker 2: and you're at Miami, not really the most easiest environments

861
00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:32,319
Speaker 2: to play, So last last thing. Totally different teams since

862
00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:34,600
Speaker 2: week one. When you lose two games, you're not bowletproof.

863
00:42:35,040 --> 00:42:36,840
Speaker 2: So I won't bitch and moan too much on Monday,

864
00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:39,560
Speaker 2: I promptly, but Notre Dame has made their own bed.

865
00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:41,359
Speaker 2: And that's why I was so mad after the text

866
00:42:41,400 --> 00:42:43,120
Speaker 2: A and M game, because I knew full well that

867
00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:46,239
Speaker 2: this could be happening. It's one and a half point

868
00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:50,319
Speaker 2: you or me, you asked you.

869
00:42:51,239 --> 00:42:54,000
Speaker 1: Twenty seven to twenty three. I think they're banged up

870
00:42:54,040 --> 00:42:57,359
Speaker 1: in the trenches, occult, and I think Lawrence last week

871
00:42:57,520 --> 00:42:58,799
Speaker 1: was a bit of an anomaly form.

872
00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:01,120
Speaker 2: So you think the all's back on track with those

873
00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:04,279
Speaker 2: twenty seven Yeah, and I'm not again Jacksonville definitely from

874
00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:08,279
Speaker 2: a As we noted on Monday. The offense it kind

875
00:43:08,320 --> 00:43:10,080
Speaker 2: of stabilized there after the first quarter.

876
00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:12,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, and again I'm saying, you know, finish

877
00:43:12,719 --> 00:43:15,719
Speaker 1: off an extra driver too. That's probably how I would

878
00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:19,759
Speaker 1: view with there. So yeah, I'll go Colts twenty seven

879
00:43:19,800 --> 00:43:20,200
Speaker 1: to twenty three.

880
00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:24,439
Speaker 2: I'll go twenty three twenty three. Twenty streak is over.

881
00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:28,960
Speaker 2: Are you going Blake Groupie two field goals? No, we're

882
00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:31,600
Speaker 2: going with the defensive stop there at the end. Well,

883
00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:33,200
Speaker 2: I was trying to figure out how you got the

884
00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:35,320
Speaker 2: I've got five field goals in a touchdown with a

885
00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:38,680
Speaker 2: two point conversion. He's Edda Garrison. I'm Kevin Bowen.

886
00:43:38,719 --> 00:43:41,400
Speaker 1: We'll chat next week. Colts and Jags. We'll recap it

887
00:43:41,440 --> 00:43:43,120
Speaker 1: on Monday. I ever, have a great week, great weekend.

888
00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:43,799
Speaker 2: Talk to them.
