They only won six 40 00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:39,039 Speaker 6: games I believe last year, so already halfway there. They 41 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 6: have not allowed a point over the last two weeks. 42 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:44,120 Speaker 6: So how are the vibes there heading into tonight's game 43 00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:45,400 Speaker 6: against Indianapolis Washington. 44 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:49,160 Speaker 3: Okay, the vibes are immaculate. I was starting there, so 45 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:52,080 Speaker 3: I was starting talking to their starting running back Elon 46 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 3: Edwards this morning, and I also caught up with Spencer 47 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,760 Speaker 3: Summerville Okay, and he's like, look, we can score, we 48 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 3: can score with the best of them, and really impressive 49 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 3: to see.

They were twelve and one might 55 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 3: the fact check me there just on. I think it 56 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 3: was a year or two. I think it was two 57 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 3: years ago. But vibes are really good. Like you said, 58 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,520 Speaker 3: having allowed a point, they're averaging thirty nine points per game. 59 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 3: All right, good stuff going on here on the North Side, 60 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 3: small school, big spirit Salt this morning.

I 121 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 3: was just I was saddened to hear the the dejection 122 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:06,599 Speaker 3: in your voice. I thought we need that. That was 123 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 3: necessary to kind of talk it through on Wednesday about 124 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 3: Notre Dame in Texas A and m look, I feel 125 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 3: good trust Marcus Freeman to get the boys ready. I 126 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:19,240 Speaker 3: think I think Mike Denbrock and Chris ash needed some 127 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 3: time to see what kind of personnel they had and 128 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:24,560 Speaker 3: what we wanted about this team last year was their 129 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:26,920 Speaker 3: in game adjustments and and you know, you know, Ryle 130 00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 3: Leonard wasn't slinging it around the yard or anything like that. 131 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,080 Speaker 3: They had a set way in which they won. But 132 00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 3: I think training wheels are off. 133 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:33,680 Speaker 4: CJ. 134 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 3: Carr, now all right, let him spin it. I think 135 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:38,279 Speaker 3: we got a fource feed. Jeremiah Love. I think there's 136 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 3: gonna be an over correction there because ten carres is 137 00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 3: far too few. I mean, that's that's just a crime 138 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 3: against humanity right there. And the trench has got to 139 00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:49,279 Speaker 3: be better. The old line was surprisingly bad, the captain's 140 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:51,800 Speaker 3: played surprisingly bad, and the d line wasn't gonna push, 141 00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 3: although I'll chalk that up to Miami's offensive line. 142 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:55,920 Speaker 4: It's big and they are very, very good. 143 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:58,160 Speaker 3: But I think at home at night, I heard it's 144 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:01,360 Speaker 3: gonna be the biggest recruiting weekend maybe ever Notre Dame. 145 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:04,719 Speaker 3: So it was already a must win because you cannot 146 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:07,920 Speaker 3: start owing two. But with that many recruits on hand, Look, 147 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:09,960 Speaker 3: this is mikeel coach third cracking Notre Dame. I'm thirty 148 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:12,160 Speaker 3: ye in a row dating back to this last year 149 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:14,840 Speaker 3: at Duke there, so he's gonna have something dialed up. 150 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 3: But I just I actually liked the buye for Notre 151 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,039 Speaker 3: Dame after a tough performance because you know, Lark for 152 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:21,599 Speaker 3: eighty percent of the game, he didn't play well and 153 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 3: he's still lost by three to a top ten team 154 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:23,880 Speaker 3: on the road. 155 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:26,360 Speaker 4: I don't hate it, you know. I think they're all right. 156 00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 3: I think the national perception is there all right, and 157 00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:29,920 Speaker 3: I expect a big bounce back for the Irish here 158 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 3: on on Saturday night. 159 00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:31,760 Speaker 4: It's gonna be fun. 160 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 3: It's gonna be a lot of fun.

What a guy. 178 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:18,960 Speaker 3: And but how you can speculate the heights of someone 179 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 3: based off their voice? I just thought that was an 180 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 3: electric conversation. He can hear it, but you know, I 181 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:27,240 Speaker 3: don't know. I mean, there's worse people to sounded like 182 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 3: than Kevin Bowen. 183 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 4: I'll tell you that much. 184 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 5: Well, And you know what, and there's worse people to 185 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:32,320 Speaker 5: look like. Not that anyone says that I look like 186 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:34,120 Speaker 5: you you know, probably my wife wishes that. 187 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 2: I did look like you. 188 00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 1: Nonetheless, domitill admiration society over here. 189 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 4: I like that this is great. 190 00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:43,239 Speaker 6: I will say this though, getting back to I guess 191 00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 6: more pertinent things. Colts have a big one coming up 192 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:48,920 Speaker 6: this week at home against Denver Broncos. First time they 193 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 6: have a chance to go too and oh since two 194 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:54,640 Speaker 6: thousand and nine. So Dominic, how much are you drinking 195 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:57,680 Speaker 6: the kool aid after Week one knowing that a Sean 196 00:07:57,720 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 6: Payton team is coming in here to Lucasoli Stadium. 197 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 4: That's a great question. 198 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 3: I look, I'm cautiously more optimistic than I was ahead 199 00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 3: of Week one, with the knowledge that Miami Dolphins are 200 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 3: a are a mess, I mean culturally, the Mike McDaniel saying, man, 201 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:15,680 Speaker 3: I think. 202 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 4: That's run its course, just not good football out of them. 203 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 3: But look, the Colts looked like you should look against 204 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 3: a team that may be picking top five. So I 205 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 3: thought Dan Jones had a great command of the offense. 206 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:29,239 Speaker 4: I feel. 207 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 3: I mean, we heard about it, and we talked about it, 208 00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:33,679 Speaker 3: and we wrote about it and we tweeted about it. 209 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,439 Speaker 4: But Tyler Warren is so awesome. 210 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:39,199 Speaker 3: I mean, the way he plays football seems Spike and 211 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:43,199 Speaker 3: clearly is a huge fan. And the defense was impressive. 212 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 3: That was the necessary polar opposite of what it needed 213 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:51,440 Speaker 3: to look like from a year ago. The aggression. I mean, 214 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:53,680 Speaker 3: we got Nick Cross in the backfield, they got Anny 215 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 3: more force and fumbles, we got Latu Latsu intercepting footballs. 216 00:08:57,160 --> 00:09:01,320 Speaker 3: I mean, what matrix am I in right now? Really 217 00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:05,240 Speaker 3: impressive stuff. I liked it, forcing turnovers, scoring off those turnovers, 218 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:10,000 Speaker 3: long sustained drives fourteen seventeen fifteen plays about as good 219 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 3: as you can look. And Spencer Trader's perfect, So like 220 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 3: l three phases. I was impressed, but again cautiously optimistic. 221 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 3: This will be a good measuring stick. I think it 222 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:20,600 Speaker 3: will be a competitive game, especially at home. I think 223 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 3: Lucas will be charged up. It's a wide out. We'll 224 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:26,440 Speaker 3: see if Danny Dimes or just Dimes I suppose, will 225 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 3: carry over his performance. But the O line shouldn't be 226 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:31,680 Speaker 3: looked over either for their performance, because I think people 227 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 3: were a little wary after preseason and after that, you know, 228 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:37,520 Speaker 3: primarily that joint practice for the Packers where we're like, WHOA, 229 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:39,960 Speaker 3: this offensive line gonna have some issues, Like no, it 230 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:42,960 Speaker 3: feels like they were all right too, so we'll see. 231 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 3: I think there will be some regression to the mean here, 232 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 3: but it's hard, you know, cautious optimism. 233 00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:50,440 Speaker 4: I would advise for Colts fans here Hi. 234 00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 2: Operations football starts when where? 235 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 4: How raising football tonight? 236 00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 3: Hey, we got twelve games for you.

Thanks? 250 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 2: We should all have that energy. 251 00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:35,960 Speaker 6: Yeah, honestly, to kind of underscore how big this HSC 252 00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 6: Fishers game is, and looking at their schedule from last year, 253 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 6: so Fishers or hs HE lost the Fishers inter sectional 254 00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:46,160 Speaker 6: semifinals last year, and when they played twice last year 255 00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 6: that was about total five points. So can you imagine 256 00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:51,079 Speaker 6: the amount of anngs to like finally get over the 257 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:55,160 Speaker 6: hump tonight. Possibly, But again, anything happens in the most game, 258 00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:57,720 Speaker 6: great slate, great slate of games. I'm Nic Bran again. 259 00:10:57,760 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 6: He's got part twotor Washington. That's where he's at right 260 00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:02,880 Speaker 6: now on this Friday morning. Greg Gregshaw going to join 261 00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:05,640 Speaker 6: us here coming up at eight o'clock talk a little 262 00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 6: bit more about that, and of course more on the 263 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:08,839 Speaker 6: Colts and Broncos. 264 00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 1: Yep, looking forward to that in the meantime. Thanks for 265 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 1: joining us this morning. Ninety three five one oh seven 266 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,400 Speaker 1: five the fan talking about Colts and Broncos. He was 267 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:16,960 Speaker 1: bringing that up just a moment ago, and I know 268 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 1: we've been talking about it all week long as we 269 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:22,079 Speaker 1: get closer and closer to kickoff. At this point in time, 270 00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:24,839 Speaker 1: I know everybody was pumping up and hyping up the 271 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:25,760 Speaker 1: Broncos this year. 272 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 2: Are you all that worried about Denver right now? 273 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 1: I mean they looked awful offensively last week, well one 274 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 1: side of. 275 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:35,079 Speaker 5: The ball did. The defense though, did something that frankly 276 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 5: was historic in what they were able to limit in 277 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:41,599 Speaker 5: the Tennessee offense. I Ghettos cam Boards first start in 278 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:43,640 Speaker 5: the NFL. But I think Denver has earned the right 279 00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 5: defensively to you know, why are they favored in Week 280 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:49,560 Speaker 5: two Because they have one of the best defenses in 281 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 5: the entire NFL. So you know that to me is 282 00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:54,320 Speaker 5: the biggest storyline here coming into Sunday. It's you know, 283 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:56,680 Speaker 5: your offensive line. I'm gonna point it out right there. 284 00:11:57,080 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 5: You know that unit was so solid in Week one 285 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 5: and if that can become normal for you now the 286 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:11,680 Speaker 5: whole big question of Ken Daniel Jones or resurrect his career, 287 00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 5: that question I think carries a little bit more weight 288 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,840 Speaker 5: if your offensive line can be that. So to me, 289 00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:19,080 Speaker 5: that's what this game comes down to. It's you know, 290 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:20,960 Speaker 5: how well can you protect Jones? How well can you 291 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 5: stay ahead of things. I think it was easier to 292 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 5: stay ahead of things against Miami than it was Denver, 293 00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:29,080 Speaker 5: or then it will be against Denver And you know, 294 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 5: if you do flip it, yes, bo Nix has had 295 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 5: some troubles, but you know, James, we could be looking 296 00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:35,080 Speaker 5: at the Colts down you know, two of their more 297 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:39,200 Speaker 5: important defensive starters. Unless the injury report changes here on Friday. Yeah, 298 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:39,960 Speaker 5: you never want. 299 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:42,400 Speaker 6: To see a guy go backward on the injury report, 300 00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:45,120 Speaker 6: which is what happened with Layatu la two. Granted, Mooney 301 00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 6: Ward hasn't practiced at all this week, which isn't too 302 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 6: much of a surprise considering he's in concussion protocol. But 303 00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:53,720 Speaker 6: Laatwo with that hamstring, I do wonder if he'll be available, 304 00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:56,080 Speaker 6: and also you wonder how much you want to push 305 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 6: it because keep in mind the different players. But for 306 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:01,559 Speaker 6: Dylan Jones, I did catch up with him as the 307 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 6: season was getting underway and he was like, I feel good, 308 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:06,199 Speaker 6: you know, the hamstrings behind me, And turns out it 309 00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 6: wasn't behind him. It's the same hamstring that kind of 310 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:10,400 Speaker 6: bothered him. So that's how to say that he was 311 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:13,200 Speaker 6: lying or anything. It's just that sometimes with those types 312 00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:16,040 Speaker 6: of injuries, you can feel great, but then one small 313 00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:18,319 Speaker 6: tweak can you know, mess you back up. 314 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 5: So you definitely got to be cautious. 315 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:23,240 Speaker 6: They were Liatu And also I think that's why Chris 316 00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 6: Ballard year after year invests so much in his D line, 317 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:29,880 Speaker 6: in his offensive line. So in my mind, does that 318 00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:32,319 Speaker 6: open the door for J T. Twoey Molowole to get 319 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:35,240 Speaker 6: his first NFL game under his belt, because, as we 320 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:37,240 Speaker 6: all know, last week he was a healthy scratch. 321 00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:40,280 Speaker 1: I read the nice piece she wrote on Tyler Warren 322 00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:43,000 Speaker 1: and the emerging tight end for the Colts in the 323 00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,200 Speaker 1: Athletic this morning, and there was a great quote I 324 00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:49,679 Speaker 1: thought that you highlighted from Michael Pittman talking about they 325 00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 1: could have gone to him all day long and used 326 00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:55,679 Speaker 1: him even in more ways in that game against the 327 00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins. What I took from that is the rest 328 00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:01,200 Speaker 1: of the team is fired up about this guy. 329 00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:04,720 Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, I think that that is true for sure. 330 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:07,840 Speaker 6: I got to kick out of Reggie Wayne telling us yesterday. 331 00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 6: I was asking about Tyler Warren's arrival and how he 332 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 6: can help bend the defense for his receivers, and the 333 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:15,000 Speaker 6: first thing he said was is let's boss for us. 334 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:17,320 Speaker 5: That is true. 335 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 6: So I get the whole narrative of, like, you know, 336 00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 6: how much does it mean to have guys that are 337 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:26,240 Speaker 6: unselfish in this group and they're willing to cheer for 338 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:28,520 Speaker 6: each other. But I think there's a fine line between 339 00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 6: that because even talking to Josh Downs about Tyler Warren's arrival, 340 00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 6: he was like, yeah, you know, defenses haven't really adjusted 341 00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 6: to him quite yet after just one game. But their 342 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:40,320 Speaker 6: thinking is that, you know, if we continue do our jobs, 343 00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:42,120 Speaker 6: it'll kind of be like a circular type of thing 344 00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:44,440 Speaker 6: where it'll come back around eventually. You know, there's gonna 345 00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:46,680 Speaker 6: be games where I would imagine if Tyler Warren keeps 346 00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:49,640 Speaker 6: this up, he's going to become the number one priority 347 00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:51,440 Speaker 6: to stop. And then what does that mean for Josh 348 00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:54,600 Speaker 6: downs Ady, Mitchell, Michael Pittman Junior, et cetera. And again 349 00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:56,520 Speaker 6: Pittman can say, you know, we could have had a 350 00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 6: bigger day with him when he also got a big 351 00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:01,840 Speaker 6: day himself. So that's a good problem to have though, 352 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:05,600 Speaker 6: and it's certainly the best skill position groove that Daniel 353 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 6: Jones has ever had. 354 00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:09,240 Speaker 5: Well, Reggie didn't go all the way there yesterday, but 355 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:13,120 Speaker 5: he did drop the It feels a little bit like 356 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:16,360 Speaker 5: Dallas Clark coming into our offense back in whatever that was, 357 00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:20,120 Speaker 5: oh four I think might have been the draft. That 358 00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:22,800 Speaker 5: is high high praise. You know, that's a guy in 359 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 5: your ring of honor, obviously, But again, Tyler Warren, as 360 00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:30,800 Speaker 5: wild as that sounds, you know, to me, that's not 361 00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:35,080 Speaker 5: the craziest sort of hyperbole. Vegas has bumped the over 362 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:37,360 Speaker 5: under up one catch. So they've gone up to four 363 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:40,040 Speaker 5: and a half for Tyler Warren this week, and you know, 364 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 5: to kind of where Jeff was going with the you know, 365 00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:46,360 Speaker 5: we haven't really fully you know, whatever Pittman said, haven't 366 00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 5: really fully tapped into Tyler Warren just yet. You know, 367 00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 5: last week we saw him what in the backfield for 368 00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:54,920 Speaker 5: the full back dive and at first time they that 369 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:58,680 Speaker 5: is like to me one fiftieth of the backfield stuff 370 00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:01,880 Speaker 5: that they will do with Tyler Warren this season. So 371 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:04,560 Speaker 5: it would not surprise me if every single week moving 372 00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 5: forward you see an additional wrinkle, probably mostly to Warren, 373 00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 5: something backfield related, whether it's him running it, whether it's 374 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 5: him just simply you know, taking a third and one 375 00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 5: hand off, whether it's him wildcatting it, whether it's him 376 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 5: throwing it at some point like all of that. Again, 377 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:22,400 Speaker 5: you know, I think us in Big ten country, maybe 378 00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:25,400 Speaker 5: we're not, as you know, shocked by the Tyler Warren 379 00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 5: versatility because if you watched Penn State last year, it 380 00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:31,520 Speaker 5: was him or Bust frankly outside of their running backs 381 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 5: and how they utilized him. 382 00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, so. 383 00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:36,720 Speaker 5: Continue to keep an eye on that. I guess is 384 00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:37,240 Speaker 5: what I would say. 385 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:39,360 Speaker 1: The other part of that, and we had talked about 386 00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:42,000 Speaker 1: a little bit last week, but you highlighted again the 387 00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:45,440 Speaker 1: touchdown pass to Michael Pittman really comes about because Tyler 388 00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:48,240 Speaker 1: Warren occupies the safety and all of a sudden, the 389 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:50,720 Speaker 1: safety is like, I better catch that, dude, and that. 390 00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:52,880 Speaker 2: Leaves Pittman to win a one on one matchup. 391 00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:56,360 Speaker 6: Yeah. Again, having that gravity is something that you can't 392 00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:58,560 Speaker 6: necessarily teach. I think he just had it for the 393 00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 6: day he arrived here. And I believe Zaia Franklin was 394 00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:04,080 Speaker 6: talking about this on the Scoop City podcast at the 395 00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:07,960 Speaker 6: Athletic shout to Diana Russini. But I saw him in 396 00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:11,880 Speaker 6: a clip discussing how even as players you wonder how 397 00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:14,040 Speaker 6: it'll translate. He's like, Okay, this guy's making plays in 398 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:16,800 Speaker 6: practice in camp, and then the pass come on and 399 00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:20,960 Speaker 6: you realize, oh, this is real. So I would expect 400 00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:23,400 Speaker 6: more to be kind of thrown at Tyler Warree as 401 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 6: the season goes on, And honestly, I was surprised at 402 00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:27,119 Speaker 6: how much was throwing at him to begin with. It 403 00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:30,199 Speaker 6: not literally the football, but just the array of different, 404 00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:32,560 Speaker 6: you know, ways he was lined up whether it was inside, 405 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:34,320 Speaker 6: whether it was outside of receiver, whether it was in 406 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:37,439 Speaker 6: the backfield, whether he was in motion. They're you know, 407 00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:39,760 Speaker 6: using him kind of as a gadget tight end, but 408 00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:42,600 Speaker 6: also he's giving you not gadgety production, like real production. 409 00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:45,000 Speaker 5: So that is exciting stuff for these Colts. 410 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:47,560 Speaker 2: You mentioned, you've talked about Kevin. 411 00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 1: You're not all that impressed by the Broncos array of receivers. 412 00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:54,000 Speaker 1: How important it is for them to get Evan Ingram 413 00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:56,560 Speaker 1: back if you know he practiced yesterday, assumed that he 414 00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,680 Speaker 1: probably will play. How big is that for Sean Payton 415 00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:01,000 Speaker 1: offense especially. 416 00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:02,680 Speaker 5: Well, yeah, and for Botnicks right now, who I think 417 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:05,200 Speaker 5: is struggling to find a bit a bit of consistency. 418 00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:07,640 Speaker 5: You know, can a tight end aid that? Obviously we've 419 00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:10,200 Speaker 5: seen the Colts struggle with their offensive consistency in recent 420 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:12,520 Speaker 5: years and they have not had you know, I think 421 00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:15,640 Speaker 5: an upper echelon tight end there. So you know, again 422 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:19,320 Speaker 5: potential absences of Lattu and Ward. I definitely do not 423 00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 5: want to undermine that. But if you're going to rank 424 00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:27,000 Speaker 5: games on the schedule, like the Rams in two weeks, 425 00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:29,560 Speaker 5: I think having a lot to an award would mean 426 00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 5: more for that game than this game. Like to me, 427 00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:35,959 Speaker 5: there is an ability to withstand that loss. You know, 428 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:40,280 Speaker 5: to Denver's offense is power run game first, That's how 429 00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:43,000 Speaker 5: they want to be built. They've changed their running backs 430 00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:45,919 Speaker 5: in the offseason. That's kind of what they want to 431 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:48,320 Speaker 5: hang their hat on. And again that probably fits a 432 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:51,480 Speaker 5: little bit more of the Colts. So you know, early 433 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:53,600 Speaker 5: in the year, you don't want the Friday Andrew Report 434 00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:56,520 Speaker 5: necessarily to have, you know, Ward and Law to both 435 00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:59,159 Speaker 5: be such big names on it. But if there is 436 00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:02,600 Speaker 5: a game too, again, with stand it. I do think 437 00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:05,440 Speaker 5: this is a possibility to handle that. By the way, 438 00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:07,919 Speaker 5: if Jonathan Taylor gets in the open field coming up 439 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 5: on Sunday, do you want to see two hands in 440 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:11,679 Speaker 5: the ball? Do you want to see any celebration with 441 00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:16,280 Speaker 5: the ball across the goal line? Any any I would 442 00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:17,400 Speaker 5: get back to last year. 443 00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:19,920 Speaker 2: I think Jonathan Taylor's probably fired up to be. 444 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:23,119 Speaker 5: On it from about the fifteen just to really I 445 00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:25,800 Speaker 5: think he should troll. Honestly, what did he do last 446 00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:27,439 Speaker 5: year in the game after didn't he do something in 447 00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:29,400 Speaker 5: that Tennessee game? He went off in that Tennessee game. 448 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:31,240 Speaker 5: He had like over two ndred yards but didn't he 449 00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:33,120 Speaker 5: do did he do like the two hands and really 450 00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 5: carry it like he was? I believe so, But I. 451 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:40,040 Speaker 6: Mean, he wasn't interested in going back down memory laying, 452 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:43,520 Speaker 6: and neither was Shane Psyching. For reasons that we all know. 453 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:46,359 Speaker 6: That was probably the most embarrassing loss they had last 454 00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:48,640 Speaker 6: year outside of the loss at the Giants. 455 00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:51,639 Speaker 1: It's coming up four h five Sunday afternoon over at 456 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:53,240 Speaker 1: Lucas Oil. Of course, we'll have a full day of 457 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:57,760 Speaker 1: coverage for you. Everything kicks off boy about noon with 458 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:00,520 Speaker 1: the Ride the Drive to kick off with Jay and 459 00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:03,680 Speaker 1: then the Colts will get the network involved and we'll 460 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:05,320 Speaker 1: take it right through and then Greg Greig Straw has 461 00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:07,720 Speaker 1: the post game all right here ninety three five and. 462 00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:09,639 Speaker 2: One oh seven five. The Think can also listen to 463 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:10,920 Speaker 2: it on Hank FM. 464 00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:13,280 Speaker 1: If you're getting a little bit farther away from the city, 465 00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:15,240 Speaker 1: that might be the way to go as well. The 466 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 1: Fever on Sunday afternoon tip off at three o'clock James Boyd. 467 00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:23,080 Speaker 1: We'll hear that one on ninety three point one WIBC 468 00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 1: and again WNBA with a quadruple header on Sunday afternoon 469 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:30,880 Speaker 1: against Week two of the NFL. 470 00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:33,879 Speaker 6: Yeah, the ratings will not be that great, but for 471 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:37,560 Speaker 6: the purposes of the matchup, I did want the Dream 472 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:40,400 Speaker 6: over the Aces, who have, in my opinion, the best 473 00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:42,359 Speaker 6: player in the world and Asia Wilson. The Dream have 474 00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:45,240 Speaker 6: a lot of talent as well. I'm taking nothing away 475 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 6: from Ryan Howard's back. 476 00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:48,800 Speaker 5: She's played for about the past month or so. She's back. 477 00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:52,560 Speaker 6: Alicia Gray has been I mean fantastic as well. So 478 00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:55,320 Speaker 6: I think those two players kind of headline that team. 479 00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:58,120 Speaker 6: But as we talked about earlier in this hour two 480 00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:00,320 Speaker 6: and two on the season, some of that with Kaitlyn 481 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:01,800 Speaker 6: in the lineup, some of that without her. 482 00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:03,200 Speaker 5: You know, how do you respond? 483 00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:05,879 Speaker 6: And you know, I just think that you have a 484 00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 6: very good chance to go out there and steal on 485 00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 6: the road, and if you do, Boy, with that make 486 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:11,320 Speaker 6: Game two pretty special. 487 00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:12,879 Speaker 5: Well, in the Dream, I don't believe they've won a 488 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:15,880 Speaker 5: playoff game since twenty eighteen. The fever you go back 489 00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:19,760 Speaker 5: to twenty fifteen. So to your point, James, it is 490 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:22,879 Speaker 5: a little bit of like if the Colts met the 491 00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:26,480 Speaker 5: Steelers in the playoffs up coming this year of two franchises, 492 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:28,800 Speaker 5: that it's like, boy, it's been a while even though 493 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:32,400 Speaker 5: you respect Pitt's been a lot. It's been a while. So, yeah, 494 00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:35,119 Speaker 5: Atlanta in Indiana. Last time they met in the regular 495 00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:36,840 Speaker 5: season was two months ago. Yeah, so it's been a 496 00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:38,840 Speaker 5: long time since, you know, pre All Star break. Obviously 497 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:42,080 Speaker 5: Kayln Clark was playing games before that, so it's been 498 00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:44,399 Speaker 5: a while. But yes, as James said Saturday three o'clock, 499 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 5: we know Tuesday seven thirty right for Tuesday, I believe 500 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:51,159 Speaker 5: that is on ESPN yep, and then if necessary, it 501 00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:54,440 Speaker 5: would be a Thursday night game back in the atl. 502 00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:56,560 Speaker 1: No time yet on that game, all right, coming up 503 00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:58,320 Speaker 1: at a moment, Greg Greig Straws stops by for his 504 00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:00,600 Speaker 1: weekly visit.

So one regular season game 519 00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:43,480 Speaker 7: a year, I kind of step away from the Indianapolis area. 520 00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:45,679 Speaker 7: A good friend of mine and Joe Morris as they 521 00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:49,000 Speaker 7: head football coach at Washington High School. So tonight I 522 00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:53,760 Speaker 7: have homecoming at Hatchet Hollow as Washington host Princeton in 523 00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:56,560 Speaker 7: the Pocket Athletic Conference Big School Division? 524 00:22:57,560 --> 00:22:58,280 Speaker 6: Is Washington? 525 00:22:58,480 --> 00:22:59,960 Speaker 5: Correct me? If I'm wrong? Is that the Zellers? 526 00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:04,879 Speaker 7: That is where twenty one feet of Zellers came from 527 00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:06,439 Speaker 7: in THEBA. 528 00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:08,840 Speaker 5: Let's see, they got some talent coming through there. 529 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 6: So Rake, when you think of that, first of all, 530 00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:14,880 Speaker 6: can you explain kind of the relationship there and why 531 00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:16,840 Speaker 6: it's lasted as long if you don't mind sharing a 532 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:17,800 Speaker 6: little personal story there. 533 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:18,639 Speaker 4: Sure. 534 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:20,560 Speaker 7: So Joe is a buddy of mine that I know 535 00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:24,720 Speaker 7: through the University of Indianapolis, and Joe is interesting and 536 00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:27,119 Speaker 7: that Joe got into being a high school head coach 537 00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:31,199 Speaker 7: basically in his late forties early fifties. He is a 538 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:33,679 Speaker 7: lay coach other words, meaning he is not a teacher 539 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:37,440 Speaker 7: at Washington High School. So he is actually the director 540 00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:42,040 Speaker 7: of development for the Davies County Chamber of Commerce. And 541 00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:45,679 Speaker 7: so what we use that broadcast for is kind of 542 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:50,240 Speaker 7: a showcase event for Washington Community schools and for Discover 543 00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:54,879 Speaker 7: Davie's County. So they bring our full production from ISIC 544 00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:58,440 Speaker 7: down to kind of showcase what is their brand new 545 00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:00,920 Speaker 7: stadium now, now it's three years all at this point, 546 00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:05,240 Speaker 7: but it's phenomenal and it was the first major improvement 547 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:09,560 Speaker 7: to their football stadium in about eight decades down in Washington. 548 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:14,919 Speaker 7: So it's kind of a showcase display sort of event 549 00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:16,680 Speaker 7: that we go down and do there every year. 550 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:19,439 Speaker 5: Rake, when you and I make our annual trip up 551 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:22,080 Speaker 5: thirty one to watch the fighting Irish on the hardwood, 552 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:25,919 Speaker 5: we'd probably get pretty deep up onto thirty one before 553 00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 5: you know, maybe on one of those signs that says 554 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:32,680 Speaker 5: Knox turn left. And it's not often I would ask 555 00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:35,520 Speaker 5: you about Knox High School, but I have come across 556 00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:37,760 Speaker 5: the name of and I hope I'm saying his name right, 557 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:43,160 Speaker 5: Miles McLoughlin. They're running back who ran for four hundred 558 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:49,480 Speaker 5: and thirty nine yards last week, nine touchdowns, Rake, I 559 00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:52,880 Speaker 5: see that he's third on the all time rushing list. Now, 560 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:56,400 Speaker 5: if my math is correct, given what Charlie Spiegel did 561 00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:59,159 Speaker 5: in high school, Knox would have to get on a 562 00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:02,879 Speaker 5: tournament run here. I haven't done the calculator. Could we 563 00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:05,600 Speaker 5: be looking at a chase for the all time leading 564 00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:06,919 Speaker 5: rusher in our state's history. 565 00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:10,320 Speaker 7: I thought Charlie put that record so far out of 566 00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:13,760 Speaker 7: reach that nobody would ever touch it. Miles is racking 567 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:18,280 Speaker 7: up some astronomical yards. Knox is a team that has 568 00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:21,920 Speaker 7: turned into a pretty solid football powerhouse. They do tend 569 00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:24,119 Speaker 7: to play it and they're kind of they're kind of 570 00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 7: in between South Bend and the region and there it's 571 00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:31,320 Speaker 7: not like East Central, who is so much largerbody else 572 00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:33,800 Speaker 7: kind of in their area, but to a smaller degree 573 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:35,879 Speaker 7: like that. Other words, they're like a three A team. 574 00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:38,680 Speaker 7: Primarily they're in a league with one A and two 575 00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 7: A teams, and so in other words, usually the postseason, 576 00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:45,840 Speaker 7: maybe they get a week, you know, two weeks, three 577 00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:47,600 Speaker 7: weeks in the usually that's kind of about the end 578 00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 7: of it. So I think he's cleared four hundred twice 579 00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 7: in three games. I have not done the career total 580 00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:58,680 Speaker 7: math just yet. But the fact that we're even having 581 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:03,000 Speaker 7: this conversation is remarkable, knowing that I think Charlie Spiegel 582 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:04,879 Speaker 7: is still running four yards at Newfoult, you know, year 583 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:05,879 Speaker 7: defre graduated. 584 00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:07,840 Speaker 5: I was going to say we find buried the lead 585 00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:09,719 Speaker 5: a little bit on this Friday morning, but Kyle then 586 00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:12,840 Speaker 5: ripad the high school news story of the day yesterday 587 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:16,120 Speaker 5: and that's Karmel and center Grove back in the mick. Frankly, 588 00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:19,480 Speaker 5: I would say, it's about time. Could you kind of 589 00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:21,280 Speaker 5: fill us in on the last few years for those 590 00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:24,479 Speaker 5: two schools, maybe a little bit of an elevator version 591 00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:28,240 Speaker 5: of what exactly happened four years ago and how do 592 00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:28,920 Speaker 5: we get to here? 593 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:35,720 Speaker 7: So again, I think there were some some differences between 594 00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:38,760 Speaker 7: the six that stayed in the mix and Carmel and 595 00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:42,400 Speaker 7: center Grove. I think from an athletic standpoint, the problem 596 00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:45,399 Speaker 7: was not basketball or football. I think it was some 597 00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:49,600 Speaker 7: of the other sports, and so the two sides agreed 598 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:53,120 Speaker 7: to split basically after I want to say the basketball 599 00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:56,159 Speaker 7: season of the twenty one to twenty two year, so 600 00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:59,639 Speaker 7: this would be the fourth fall that the schools have 601 00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:04,400 Speaker 7: been in dependence and frankly, you know, the the independent 602 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 7: schedule has been a bit more of a struggle safer 603 00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:11,399 Speaker 7: Center Grove than it has been for Carmel. It was 604 00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:13,960 Speaker 7: kind of an open secret that Center Grove was going back. 605 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:17,200 Speaker 7: It was the Carmel news that I think was kind 606 00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:20,000 Speaker 7: of a change from you know, what had been kind 607 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:22,880 Speaker 7: of talked about, maybe not publicly, but had been talked 608 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:25,679 Speaker 7: about about those that kind of are are around the 609 00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:29,200 Speaker 7: situation on a regular basis, and so Carmel going back 610 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:31,240 Speaker 7: in was a bit of a surprise. But I also 611 00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:34,479 Speaker 7: think Carmel did not want to be the only school 612 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:37,359 Speaker 7: on the outside looking in. You know, if if there's 613 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:40,200 Speaker 7: another school that didn't pendent with you, you at least 614 00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:44,280 Speaker 7: gotta have, you know, somebody, and and from a scheduling standpoint, 615 00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:48,240 Speaker 7: you can kind of work around. Scheduling could have gotten 616 00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 7: real dicey for Carmel if they didn't jump back into 617 00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:53,160 Speaker 7: the league. One of the things that you also heard, 618 00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:55,359 Speaker 7: and I think it was the Center Grove administrator that 619 00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:58,240 Speaker 7: was the one that was most quoted about this, They saying, hey, 620 00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 7: when the Mick was first four and thirty years ago, 621 00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:02,280 Speaker 7: so this was supposed to be more than athletics. This 622 00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:06,159 Speaker 7: is going to be things that were collaborative academically, and 623 00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:08,879 Speaker 7: it sounds like they're gonna try to get back to 624 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:11,800 Speaker 7: that as well. So to be blunt, I'm kind of 625 00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:15,400 Speaker 7: friends with everybody that's involved in the situation, and I'm 626 00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:18,600 Speaker 7: glad they're back together because it's where frankly, they needed 627 00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:21,000 Speaker 7: to be in the first place. So I'm glad after 628 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:24,720 Speaker 7: three or four years tooler heads prevail for lack of 629 00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:26,840 Speaker 7: a better term, and then Mick will be back to 630 00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:29,439 Speaker 7: eight teams as of next year. It may not be 631 00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:31,480 Speaker 7: that way in football next year. There may be some 632 00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 7: scheduling that you kind of have to work around a 633 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:35,879 Speaker 7: little bit, but I think it'll be a full go 634 00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 7: by a basketball season next year and by football the 635 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:38,720 Speaker 7: following year. 636 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:41,760 Speaker 1: Greg Greg Straw joining us on the Paylesstlickers Hotline. Greg, 637 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:45,040 Speaker 1: I want to get your thoughts tonight. Nice crosstown matchup, 638 00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 1: Bloomington North against Bloomington South, and I know South has 639 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:50,520 Speaker 1: dominated the series and they won by quite a bit 640 00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:53,920 Speaker 1: last year. But that's a big Friday night game down there. 641 00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:57,320 Speaker 1: But the Big Ten continues to have football game schedule 642 00:28:57,400 --> 00:28:59,280 Speaker 1: on Friday night, and even though it's not a conference 643 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:03,560 Speaker 1: games on Indiana hosting Indiana State tonight on the same night. 644 00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:05,720 Speaker 2: That you've got the big crosstown rivalry going on. 645 00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:08,680 Speaker 7: Well obviously, Frankly, I don't think Indiana has much of 646 00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:10,760 Speaker 7: a choice in the matter. I think this is scandon 647 00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:14,680 Speaker 7: down by the Big Ten. The best thing that I 648 00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:18,600 Speaker 7: have seen done in a scenario like this one was 649 00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:21,240 Speaker 7: the first time that Purdue had a Friday night game, 650 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:26,560 Speaker 7: and they hosted Ohio back in September of seventeen. And 651 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:30,040 Speaker 7: what Purdue did is they basically told all the area 652 00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:33,240 Speaker 7: schools listen, because we're playing on Friday night, we will 653 00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:35,560 Speaker 7: allow you to play your game on Saturday at Ross. 654 00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:37,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's cool. 655 00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:40,040 Speaker 7: And two of the schools took them up on that, 656 00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:43,120 Speaker 7: so there was a doubleheader that day. West Lafayette played 657 00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:46,240 Speaker 7: Crete Monet out of the South side of Chicago, and 658 00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:50,000 Speaker 7: then Harrison and Lafayette Jeff played each other. I think 659 00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:52,640 Speaker 7: both McCutcheon and Central Catholic like just to just to 660 00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:55,080 Speaker 7: play their home games as is. I'm not sure if 661 00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 7: that was ever thought about by the folks that I you. 662 00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:00,400 Speaker 7: I think it would have been the proper thing to do, 663 00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:03,400 Speaker 7: you know, to kind of offer North and South a 664 00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:07,760 Speaker 7: chance to play at Memorial Stadium the next day. Maybe 665 00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:11,160 Speaker 7: NCAAA or restrictions or regulations have changed since that time, 666 00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:13,920 Speaker 7: or they can't do something like that. Maybe that's like 667 00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:16,240 Speaker 7: the one rule of the NCAAA has left. I don't know, 668 00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:19,960 Speaker 7: but that's how I think I would have handled that. 669 00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:23,720 Speaker 7: It stinks. But in Indiana University's defense in terms of 670 00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:26,200 Speaker 7: the Friday night game, I don't think that's their call. 671 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:30,240 Speaker 7: I think that's handed down by the Big Thing standpoint. 672 00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:32,920 Speaker 6: All that rake The last one I have for you. 673 00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:35,080 Speaker 6: On the high school scene, we got the mudst game 674 00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:38,840 Speaker 6: tonight and we know it's a classic rivalry. We also 675 00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:42,400 Speaker 6: know there's some some pain there for Hamilton Southeastern having 676 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:45,440 Speaker 6: lost to Fishers by combined five points last year in 677 00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:49,360 Speaker 6: two games. So one who you got if you can 678 00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:51,920 Speaker 6: give us a prediction or how it'll shake out. But 679 00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 6: also where does that rank on your list of rivalries 680 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:57,640 Speaker 6: in the Indianapolis high school area? 681 00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:00,240 Speaker 7: That is as big as it gets because of the 682 00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:03,520 Speaker 7: continued growth of those two schools. I think total enrollment 683 00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:07,680 Speaker 7: now is about seven k maybe larger between the two 684 00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:12,840 Speaker 7: and again JB, we are really one generation removed from 685 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:16,480 Speaker 7: that being one high school. If I have the math right, 686 00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:19,280 Speaker 7: I think this is Fisher's twentieth year as a high 687 00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:21,840 Speaker 7: school before it was all part of it, and it 688 00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:24,320 Speaker 7: still is part of Hambleton Southeastern Schools all part of 689 00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:29,280 Speaker 7: Hambleton Southeastern High School. When I describe the Indianapolis area 690 00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:34,680 Speaker 7: to those from like Louisville, Cincinnati, et cetera, I said, 691 00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:37,400 Speaker 7: we don't like. For example, in Louisville, the end all 692 00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:41,120 Speaker 7: be all game every year is Trinity and Saint X, 693 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:43,600 Speaker 7: and they would play that game at Cardinal Stadium and 694 00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:48,000 Speaker 7: draw twenty thirty forty thousand people. We don't have that here. 695 00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:52,360 Speaker 7: But what we do have is ten to fifteen games 696 00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:56,800 Speaker 7: every Friday night that will draw four to five thousand people. 697 00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:00,680 Speaker 7: That is the strength of high school football, is the 698 00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:03,640 Speaker 7: depth of the passion that you have for games all 699 00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:05,680 Speaker 7: across the metro area. 700 00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 4: HSD and Fishers. 701 00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:10,480 Speaker 7: The Mudsot game is as big of a heated rivalry 702 00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:11,040 Speaker 7: as it gets. 703 00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:11,240 Speaker 4: Now. 704 00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:14,480 Speaker 7: This is the best rivalry week. Brownsburg and Avon, That's 705 00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:17,760 Speaker 7: the game that'll be on my NDTV twenty three this week. 706 00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:21,120 Speaker 7: Cathedral and Shuitard the Butler Ball that is a big 707 00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:24,200 Speaker 7: game this week, even hit on BLOOMINGTOONN South and Limncoln North. 708 00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:26,600 Speaker 7: It seems that most of the riflere is atten of 709 00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:30,000 Speaker 7: deposited here in the week number four, But to me 710 00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:32,520 Speaker 7: Hsse and Fishers is the biggest of all of those. 711 00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:34,920 Speaker 5: Rake will end with your late night duties coming up 712 00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:37,640 Speaker 5: on Sunday, a couple of these four o'clock kicks. This 713 00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:40,239 Speaker 5: season for the Colts, it was a postgame show like 714 00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:43,880 Speaker 5: no other. Frankly for you last Sunday, what is the 715 00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:46,680 Speaker 5: biggest key for you in making sure that postgame show 716 00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:50,160 Speaker 5: has a similar sentiment coming up in two days. 717 00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:52,760 Speaker 7: We often talk about, you know, if we're talking about 718 00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:55,720 Speaker 7: coaches and messaging at halftime when you're playing really well, 719 00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:59,040 Speaker 7: it's hey, fellas, go do that again, you know. And 720 00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:01,760 Speaker 7: I thought Shane Stikeen was trying to set the tone 721 00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:05,160 Speaker 7: when we were all together on Wednesday, because you would 722 00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:07,640 Speaker 7: not have known they were as dominant as they were 723 00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:10,280 Speaker 7: because he was pretty locked in and focused and want 724 00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:13,880 Speaker 7: to talk about the Denver Broncos. So now I think 725 00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:16,960 Speaker 7: the question is not going to be internally from a 726 00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:19,640 Speaker 7: Colt's perspective. I guess eventually you would get to this point. 727 00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:22,400 Speaker 7: But now that there is tape out of Daniel Jones 728 00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:25,360 Speaker 7: in this offense, and tape out of what LouAnn Arumo's 729 00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:28,400 Speaker 7: defense is wouldn't look like with the Indianapolis Colts. How 730 00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:31,400 Speaker 7: does Denver react and then how does indian respond to that? 731 00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:34,800 Speaker 7: So for Indy it's simply a matter of, hey, do 732 00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:37,640 Speaker 7: more of what you did last Sunday, but no that 733 00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:40,080 Speaker 7: you will see a different style offense and defense from 734 00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:43,240 Speaker 7: Denver and how do you respond to that will be 735 00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:45,360 Speaker 7: what determines the postgame show that I get to have 736 00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:47,520 Speaker 7: on Sunday night. 737 00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:50,000 Speaker 1: All right, buddy, have fun tonight, a little bit of 738 00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:51,600 Speaker 1: travel for you. But it sounds like a good time 739 00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:53,880 Speaker 1: and we'll check it with you a Sunday afternoon or 740 00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:54,560 Speaker 1: Sunday evening. 741 00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:57,040 Speaker 4: I guess, yeah, that sounds good, fellas. 742 00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:01,240 Speaker 2: Is there anything you don't keep around? 743 00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:03,960 Speaker 8: And I've got an audio on everybody, anyone and everyone 744 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:05,080 Speaker 8: that's ever been on these airwaves. 745 00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:07,360 Speaker 5: We can quite make that out, could you. I just 746 00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:09,319 Speaker 5: want to make sure we're clear. I don't want to, 747 00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 5: you know, I want to make sure we're transcribing people accurately. 748 00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:14,479 Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean, I'll get in the mood for you, Jeff. 749 00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:15,480 Speaker 7: I'll always get the mood. 750 00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:20,440 Speaker 1: Well, once again, tell you what it's talking about. Football's 751 00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:21,800 Speaker 1: talking about getting ready for football. 752 00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:23,880 Speaker 5: He said that before twenty five point Colts win, he 753 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:25,840 Speaker 5: might need to say that for sixteen more weeks. 754 00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:30,200 Speaker 1: Welcome into the program, such as it is, good morning, 755 00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:30,720 Speaker 1: Matt Taylor. 756 00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:31,600 Speaker 2: How you doing today? 757 00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:34,879 Speaker 7: I do have a fever of one hundred and three 758 00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:39,120 Speaker 7: from foreigner right there? Boy, I like it ready to 759 00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:39,959 Speaker 7: go for week two? 760 00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:44,600 Speaker 1: Uh? Man, everybody was on fire for the Colts last week. 761 00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:47,000 Speaker 2: Did you have any inkling that was coming? 762 00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:48,799 Speaker 3: Uh? 763 00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:52,120 Speaker 7: You know, honestly, I thought it was a The game 764 00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:56,440 Speaker 7: was it manifested itself based on the potential that we 765 00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:59,799 Speaker 7: had been talking about this team for the entire offseason, 766 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:03,440 Speaker 7: well especially since the dating back to when the Colts 767 00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:07,279 Speaker 7: named Daniel Jones as the starter. I mean, offensively, it 768 00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:10,600 Speaker 7: clicked right, It was efficient, it was on schedule. Uh, 769 00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:14,560 Speaker 7: it never had to punt officially, and you know, the 770 00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:17,520 Speaker 7: big plays were there, The intermediate part of the passing 771 00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:20,560 Speaker 7: game was there. The running game was there with Jonathan Taylor. 772 00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:23,799 Speaker 7: So I thought that was definitely, you know, a possibility. 773 00:35:23,840 --> 00:35:27,040 Speaker 7: And then defensively, I thought, what they you know, did 774 00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:29,000 Speaker 7: to to a tongue of iola was in the cards 775 00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:32,280 Speaker 7: because of all that we've been hearing about the Colts 776 00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:34,960 Speaker 7: defense and the lou An Rumo the entire offseason. You know, 777 00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:39,840 Speaker 7: it being driven back to front with experienced playmakers in 778 00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:42,840 Speaker 7: the secondary, and being able to confuse the quarterback with 779 00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:47,359 Speaker 7: pre snap you know, moving around and and you know 780 00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:50,280 Speaker 7: that the blitz and bluff concepts and all that stuff 781 00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:53,920 Speaker 7: pre snaps confused quarterbacks. I just thought it was on display, 782 00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:56,239 Speaker 7: so I wasn't totally shocked by it. And I think 783 00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:59,680 Speaker 7: the most encouraging thing from the whole day was that 784 00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:02,280 Speaker 7: they they did it against, right, They did it against 785 00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:05,200 Speaker 7: one of these statistical best quarterbacks in the game, a 786 00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:07,640 Speaker 7: guy that's been around the NFL or in the NFL 787 00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:11,000 Speaker 7: for six seven years. They didn't do it against, you know, 788 00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:13,800 Speaker 7: a rookie quarterback or a guy making a spot start, 789 00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:16,360 Speaker 7: or like a journeyman quarterback. They did it against a 790 00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:19,560 Speaker 7: legit guy. And the Colts just haven't won too many 791 00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:24,839 Speaker 7: games lately on defense against you know, legitimate bonafi quarterbacks, 792 00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:26,760 Speaker 7: and I think they're just kind of scratching their surface 793 00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:29,480 Speaker 7: on how games specific they can be on that side 794 00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:29,879 Speaker 7: of the ball. 795 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:32,520 Speaker 2: I'm just curious Matt in the broadcast booth. 796 00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:36,680 Speaker 1: At what point did you and Rick Ventury call play 797 00:36:36,920 --> 00:36:39,719 Speaker 1: then look at each other and like say to each 798 00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:43,200 Speaker 1: other non verbally, like, wow, this is amazing. 799 00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:46,000 Speaker 7: Yeah, I think it's Once once the Colts got up 800 00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:48,719 Speaker 7: three scores. I think it was seventeen to nothing in 801 00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:50,839 Speaker 7: the second quarter, he and I just looked at each 802 00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:54,040 Speaker 7: other like this is this is bizarre in a great 803 00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:56,799 Speaker 7: way because they haven't just blown too many teams out 804 00:36:56,840 --> 00:36:58,640 Speaker 7: in the last couple of years. I think the twenty 805 00:36:58,640 --> 00:37:02,560 Speaker 7: five point win last Sunday was their largest margin of 806 00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:06,040 Speaker 7: victory since twenty twenty one. So they've been in a 807 00:37:06,120 --> 00:37:08,200 Speaker 7: lot of close games, and you know, we're kind of 808 00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:11,000 Speaker 7: used to that. I mean, they played thirteen games last 809 00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:13,760 Speaker 7: year decided by one score, lost a lot of games 810 00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:16,640 Speaker 7: they could have won. It was just, you know, Rick 811 00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:18,839 Speaker 7: doesn't like this term, but I mean I use it 812 00:37:18,880 --> 00:37:21,799 Speaker 7: because it's true. I mean, complimentary football was just on 813 00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:25,239 Speaker 7: full display, and so I mean he was he was 814 00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:27,160 Speaker 7: saying on the air, he was saying off the air, 815 00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:30,000 Speaker 7: I mean just the amount of variants that we showed 816 00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:33,200 Speaker 7: on defense, you know, lining up in different fronts and 817 00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:36,120 Speaker 7: you know, all the different moving parts on defense and 818 00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:38,000 Speaker 7: the secondary. I mean, we did more of that. The 819 00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:40,120 Speaker 7: Colts did more of that in the first game of 820 00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:42,600 Speaker 7: the season than they did, you know, in the last 821 00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:45,719 Speaker 7: couple of years combined. It seemed like, so, Yeah, he 822 00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:48,000 Speaker 7: looked at me and I looked at him. I'm like, Plus, 823 00:37:48,040 --> 00:37:50,239 Speaker 7: you had the crowd, it was a beautiful Chamber of 824 00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:52,640 Speaker 7: commerce day. You had Jim Mersey going into the Ring 825 00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:54,840 Speaker 7: of Honor at halftime. He just looked at me and 826 00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:57,560 Speaker 7: I looked at him and like, this is like utopia, 827 00:37:57,880 --> 00:38:00,719 Speaker 7: and you know, hopefully it's not for just one afternoon. 828 00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:03,239 Speaker 7: They can kind of string some things together. But it 829 00:38:03,280 --> 00:38:05,520 Speaker 7: was a really, really fun experience for the Colts. After 830 00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:08,320 Speaker 7: what Colts fans had been through the last couple of years, 831 00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:11,000 Speaker 7: you know, the ups and downs and changing of the 832 00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:14,480 Speaker 7: plan at quarterback, it seems like the performance they put 833 00:38:14,480 --> 00:38:16,480 Speaker 7: out last week was something that the fan base can 834 00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:19,920 Speaker 7: really sort of rally around, get behind, and hopefully it 835 00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:23,120 Speaker 7: builds upon itself, if you will. In the second game 836 00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:23,680 Speaker 7: of the season. 837 00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:25,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, the first thing Rick said to me when I 838 00:38:25,440 --> 00:38:28,160 Speaker 5: saw him in the press box after the game unrecognizable 839 00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:32,920 Speaker 5: quarterback tight end defense, And he was spot on certainly 840 00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:34,200 Speaker 5: with that. By the way, I think we have one 841 00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:37,000 Speaker 5: more little tune for Matt Taylor, do we not, Mark Dyton. 842 00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:45,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, Matt Taylor twenty seven notes. 843 00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:45,640 Speaker 4: Job. 844 00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:49,800 Speaker 6: I do want to say I sang this exact version 845 00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:50,960 Speaker 6: to him in the media. 846 00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:53,200 Speaker 5: A couple of weeks James Boyd hit some notes. Yeah, 847 00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:55,640 Speaker 5: he looked like the Colts on Sunday he was clicking there, 848 00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:57,480 Speaker 5: Matt Taylor, A happy belated birthday to you. 849 00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:01,800 Speaker 7: I appreciate you boys.

Is that new in the 868 00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:43,600 Speaker 5: repertoire here in twenty twenty five? 869 00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:46,000 Speaker 7: Yeah, we busted it out last year. I mean, think 870 00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:47,719 Speaker 7: about it. I mean, the guy grew up in the 871 00:39:47,719 --> 00:39:51,640 Speaker 7: greater Chicago area, sure, goes to Cincinnati and plays college 872 00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:54,640 Speaker 7: football and balls out there, takes the Bearcats to the 873 00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:57,799 Speaker 7: college Football Playoff when it was just four teams. And 874 00:39:57,840 --> 00:40:00,359 Speaker 7: now he's here in the heartland, the Circle cit right 875 00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:03,960 Speaker 7: the crossroads of America.

And then also, 877 00:40:08,480 --> 00:40:10,400 Speaker 7: I mean he leaves the NFL, or led the NFL 878 00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:13,040 Speaker 7: last year in yards per catch, had a big one 879 00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:14,960 Speaker 7: the other day, a thirty six yarder. I mean, he's 880 00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:17,480 Speaker 7: the Midwestern Missile. I think it's only appropriate and it 881 00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:18,040 Speaker 7: needs to catch. 882 00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:20,800 Speaker 1: Oh yes, sir, the Midwestern Missile. 883 00:40:21,239 --> 00:40:24,400 Speaker 5: Excellent.

I've got nuggets on the Denver defense. 928 00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:06,960 Speaker 7: I got a nugget on Marvin Mems and his big 929 00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:10,080 Speaker 7: time impact last year and why he's important for this game. 930 00:42:10,480 --> 00:42:12,840 Speaker 7: I got a nugget on bow Knicks. I got a 931 00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:15,879 Speaker 7: nugget on Pat ertand a defensive player of the Year 932 00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:18,239 Speaker 7: last year for the Broncos. And I have a good 933 00:42:18,360 --> 00:42:20,680 Speaker 7: nugget on the Colts trying to go two and oh, 934 00:42:20,840 --> 00:42:22,680 Speaker 7: so you guys, let me know where you want to 935 00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:28,520 Speaker 7: start two and oh all right, oh sorry, there you go. 936 00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:30,640 Speaker 7: All right, the Colts looking for their first two and 937 00:42:30,640 --> 00:42:33,040 Speaker 7: oh start, as you guys know, for the first time 938 00:42:33,120 --> 00:42:35,759 Speaker 7: since two thousand and nine. They're also looking for their 939 00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:38,959 Speaker 7: first two and oh start with back to back home 940 00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:42,600 Speaker 7: victories the beginning season for the first time since nineteen 941 00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:45,680 Speaker 7: sixty All right, you guys weren't even born. We were 942 00:42:45,719 --> 00:42:48,560 Speaker 7: not all this, weren't even born back then. Right, But 943 00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:51,319 Speaker 7: here's the deal. Trying to go too and oh is 944 00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:55,360 Speaker 7: a big deal in the NFL. Since nineteen ninety sixty 945 00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:58,480 Speaker 7: four percent of the team that starts this season two 946 00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:01,440 Speaker 7: and oh go on to make the playoffs. So on 947 00:43:01,600 --> 00:43:05,920 Speaker 7: motivation there, But there's also motivation based on the opponents 948 00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:09,960 Speaker 7: in Denver. The Colts lost that game last year Week fifteen, 949 00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:13,239 Speaker 7: and it essentially kind of killed their playoff hopes. And 950 00:43:13,320 --> 00:43:15,239 Speaker 7: the Colts, I thought, in that game, didn't more to 951 00:43:15,320 --> 00:43:18,080 Speaker 7: lose it than the Broncos did to win it. You 952 00:43:18,120 --> 00:43:20,520 Speaker 7: look at how it all kind of played out. Bo 953 00:43:20,719 --> 00:43:23,919 Speaker 7: Nicks through a career high three picks. He had only 954 00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:27,239 Speaker 7: one hundred and thirty yards passing Johnson Taylor. Let's lose 955 00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:28,959 Speaker 7: to the ball up the goal line as he's going 956 00:43:29,040 --> 00:43:31,400 Speaker 7: in trying to score a touchdown. The Colts had a 957 00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:33,799 Speaker 7: good chance there in the second quarter to go up 958 00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:36,279 Speaker 7: twenty to seven and kind of, you know, take full 959 00:43:36,320 --> 00:43:39,400 Speaker 7: control of that game. But the Broncos won just a 960 00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:42,480 Speaker 7: weird game. In that game, the Broncos became the first 961 00:43:42,480 --> 00:43:45,040 Speaker 7: team to win a game with fewer than two hundred 962 00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:49,759 Speaker 7: yards of total offense and three plus giveaways since twenty 963 00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:53,560 Speaker 7: and thirteen. So winning ugly and winning kind of weird 964 00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:56,840 Speaker 7: is what they do because they're affoord of that ability 965 00:43:56,880 --> 00:43:59,680 Speaker 7: with their great defense. Last week was case in points. 966 00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:03,440 Speaker 7: The Denver offense turned the ball over four times against 967 00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:06,480 Speaker 7: Tennessee and they still won pretty comfortably by eight points, 968 00:44:06,719 --> 00:44:09,560 Speaker 7: and they had four turnovers, so they became the first 969 00:44:09,560 --> 00:44:12,680 Speaker 7: Bronco team to win a game with four turnovers since 970 00:44:12,719 --> 00:44:16,680 Speaker 7: twenty fifteen. So it's a really important game just based 971 00:44:16,719 --> 00:44:18,960 Speaker 7: on the map and the analytics. But I also think 972 00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:21,000 Speaker 7: there was just a revenge factor for the core of 973 00:44:21,040 --> 00:44:23,239 Speaker 7: this cold team that was a part of that game 974 00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:25,640 Speaker 7: last year, that's trying to get over on Denver and 975 00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:27,400 Speaker 7: set a tone, send a message to the rest of 976 00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:29,359 Speaker 7: the league that it's a dawn of a new day 977 00:44:29,360 --> 00:44:31,520 Speaker 7: here with the Colts and Daniel Jones and things year 978 00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:33,320 Speaker 7: in twenty twenty five are going to be different. 979 00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:37,200 Speaker 6: That was good stuff there on the tibis on Matt 980 00:44:38,200 --> 00:44:41,560 Speaker 6: I will pivot to Pat Sertan. I know you mentioned 981 00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:43,880 Speaker 6: him and he is a big time, big time player. 982 00:44:43,960 --> 00:44:44,840 Speaker 6: Ragined be for the Player of the. 983 00:44:44,840 --> 00:44:49,440 Speaker 7: Year, absolutely yeah, mega honors last year and then last 984 00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:51,680 Speaker 7: week right out of the gate, he was tasked with 985 00:44:51,719 --> 00:44:55,040 Speaker 7: shutting down the titans best weapon and Calvin Ridley, and 986 00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:57,319 Speaker 7: he ate the test big time. Lined up across from 987 00:44:57,400 --> 00:45:00,280 Speaker 7: Ridley on twenty seven of thirty four coverage now apps 988 00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:04,000 Speaker 7: and the Titans targeted Ridley just one time with Pat 989 00:45:04,040 --> 00:45:06,960 Speaker 7: Certan in coverage on him. So really for the game 990 00:45:07,040 --> 00:45:10,400 Speaker 7: last week, had four catches for the afternoon, but Cirtan 991 00:45:10,600 --> 00:45:13,360 Speaker 7: was the nearest Certan was not, I should say, the 992 00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:16,600 Speaker 7: nearest defender in coverage in any of those four receptions 993 00:45:16,880 --> 00:45:20,320 Speaker 7: for Calvin Ridley. So last year certain allowed the fewest 994 00:45:20,360 --> 00:45:24,080 Speaker 7: passing yards and the second lowest passer rating when targeted 995 00:45:24,360 --> 00:45:27,640 Speaker 7: among all NFL cornerbacks. Big reason why he was Defensive 996 00:45:27,640 --> 00:45:30,640 Speaker 7: Player of the Year last year. So that's important because 997 00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:33,200 Speaker 7: no matter what the Broncos decided to do, whether that's 998 00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:36,719 Speaker 7: put Certan on Michael Pittman Junior, or just leave him 999 00:45:36,719 --> 00:45:38,399 Speaker 7: on one half of the field and kind of try 1000 00:45:38,400 --> 00:45:40,400 Speaker 7: to shut down that other half of the field. The 1001 00:45:40,480 --> 00:45:43,759 Speaker 7: Colts have way more weapons on offense than the Titans too, 1002 00:45:43,800 --> 00:45:46,439 Speaker 7: in my opinion. So you know, seven different Colts caught 1003 00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:49,359 Speaker 7: a pass last week. They've got Josh Downs, They've got 1004 00:45:49,360 --> 00:45:52,120 Speaker 7: the Midwestern Missile and Alex Pearce, and then they've got 1005 00:45:52,120 --> 00:45:55,680 Speaker 7: mister truck himself, Tyler Warren catching seven balls for seventy 1006 00:45:55,719 --> 00:45:59,160 Speaker 7: six yards. So you know, not that Pat Curtin's not 1007 00:45:59,200 --> 00:46:00,960 Speaker 7: gonna have a big imp act in this game, but 1008 00:46:01,040 --> 00:46:03,760 Speaker 7: I like the Colt's ability to be versatile on offense, 1009 00:46:04,200 --> 00:46:07,919 Speaker 7: spread the wealth and be able to overcome the fact 1010 00:46:07,920 --> 00:46:10,480 Speaker 7: that Certan's on the field shutting down you know, a 1011 00:46:10,560 --> 00:46:12,840 Speaker 7: quarter of it. The Colts still have other weapons to 1012 00:46:12,920 --> 00:46:14,200 Speaker 7: move the ball in score points. 1013 00:46:14,440 --> 00:46:14,640 Speaker 4: Matt. 1014 00:46:14,680 --> 00:46:17,719 Speaker 5: I'm really curious, and I know body wise he'd begin 1015 00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:20,760 Speaker 5: a lot of weight, frankly, but in the red zone 1016 00:46:20,840 --> 00:46:24,200 Speaker 5: if they put certain at all on Tyler Warren, just 1017 00:46:24,440 --> 00:46:27,480 Speaker 5: I think Warren is I think he already saw it 1018 00:46:27,480 --> 00:46:30,360 Speaker 5: in Week one, even though he didn't necessarily score touchdowns 1019 00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:33,960 Speaker 5: per se. But he is about to be a huge 1020 00:46:34,160 --> 00:46:37,520 Speaker 5: presence for opposing defenses when they get in the red zone. 1021 00:46:38,040 --> 00:46:40,399 Speaker 7: Yeah, one hundred percent. I mean your ideology right there, 1022 00:46:40,520 --> 00:46:43,040 Speaker 7: spot on, because as we know, in the red zone, 1023 00:46:43,120 --> 00:46:46,839 Speaker 7: you know, the field shrinks, the windows become a little 1024 00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:50,319 Speaker 7: bit narrower, and you've got to go to your best playmaker, 1025 00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:52,920 Speaker 7: and defensively, you want to put your best guy on 1026 00:46:52,920 --> 00:46:56,080 Speaker 7: the other team's top option inside the red zone. And 1027 00:46:56,160 --> 00:46:58,120 Speaker 7: so you know, I still like Tyler Warren in that 1028 00:46:58,160 --> 00:47:00,400 Speaker 7: situation though, because he's a bigger guy and he just 1029 00:47:00,440 --> 00:47:03,399 Speaker 7: goes back to his basketball days with his footwork being 1030 00:47:03,440 --> 00:47:06,319 Speaker 7: able to box out a smaller Certain. So you can't 1031 00:47:06,320 --> 00:47:09,239 Speaker 7: completely just can you know, go away from him. You 1032 00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:11,880 Speaker 7: got to respect him, but you can't just you know, 1033 00:47:12,640 --> 00:47:15,120 Speaker 7: you can't just completely shut down half of the field. 1034 00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:17,960 Speaker 7: Kaila's Certain, we can't go there at all. You know, 1035 00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:20,880 Speaker 7: they still have that game plan to be impactful, you know, 1036 00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:23,480 Speaker 7: throwing the ball to Certain's way. And I'm just really 1037 00:47:23,520 --> 00:47:26,560 Speaker 7: excited for the encore production that you see out of 1038 00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:29,080 Speaker 7: Tyler Warren in this second game of the season. 1039 00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:33,640 Speaker 5: Matt passing on a listener suggestion this from Ian, he 1040 00:47:33,680 --> 00:47:39,120 Speaker 5: would like Tyler Warren to be called Big Wheel Okay, 1041 00:47:39,280 --> 00:47:41,479 Speaker 5: all right, so you know, go down your notes, maybe 1042 00:47:41,480 --> 00:47:43,759 Speaker 5: sleep on it for a couple of nights there and 1043 00:47:44,040 --> 00:47:45,760 Speaker 5: see how that one. 1044 00:47:45,960 --> 00:47:48,000 Speaker 7: You know, you have to I think what you have 1045 00:47:48,080 --> 00:47:51,000 Speaker 7: to do is you have to like list out what 1046 00:47:51,040 --> 00:47:54,080 Speaker 7: this guy's about and then match up the nickname to him.

I'm gonna let you guys go first, 1158 00:52:56,200 --> 00:52:57,960 Speaker 8: because I don't feel good about this game either way. 1159 00:52:58,000 --> 00:53:00,319 Speaker 8: I've been debating for literally like forty eight hour about 1160 00:53:00,320 --> 00:53:02,120 Speaker 8: which way I'm going here.

I do think dealing 1163 00:53:08,719 --> 00:53:11,239 Speaker 8: my thunder in what with what? 1164 00:53:11,320 --> 00:53:11,520 Speaker 4: Well? 1165 00:53:11,680 --> 00:53:13,160 Speaker 2: Short of go ahead, oh. 1166 00:53:13,000 --> 00:53:18,480 Speaker 5: Okay, nineteen sixteen Broncos. I think their defense is legit 1167 00:53:18,600 --> 00:53:21,680 Speaker 5: front and back end, and I think that's where the 1168 00:53:21,719 --> 00:53:24,440 Speaker 5: Colts found huge advantages last week. First Off, their offensive 1169 00:53:24,440 --> 00:53:27,520 Speaker 5: line was outstanding the Colts, and then secondly, I just 1170 00:53:27,560 --> 00:53:30,399 Speaker 5: think Miami was a shelve itself in the secondary when 1171 00:53:30,440 --> 00:53:32,799 Speaker 5: storm Duck went down. I think that contributed to it. 1172 00:53:33,000 --> 00:53:36,040 Speaker 5: I think Denver is much sounder in those two areas. 1173 00:53:36,200 --> 00:53:38,319 Speaker 5: I'm with Mark, though I was definitely torn on this. 1174 00:53:38,760 --> 00:53:40,840 Speaker 5: I went back and forth a couple different times because 1175 00:53:40,880 --> 00:53:44,759 Speaker 5: I don't think the Broncos are very potent offensively, and 1176 00:53:44,800 --> 00:53:47,480 Speaker 5: even if Mooney Ward and Laoto a lot who can't go, 1177 00:53:47,680 --> 00:53:50,200 Speaker 5: I don't think it's as decimating as those losses would 1178 00:53:50,239 --> 00:53:53,440 Speaker 5: be maybe in some other games. But Nonetheless, I'll go 1179 00:53:53,520 --> 00:53:55,960 Speaker 5: Broncos nineteen sixteen. 1180 00:53:56,120 --> 00:54:01,480 Speaker 6: JB twenty four to twenty Colts. I do think it'll 1181 00:54:01,520 --> 00:54:04,439 Speaker 6: be a relatively low scoring game. I'll take the slight over. 1182 00:54:04,560 --> 00:54:07,920 Speaker 6: I guess dere mark on the total points. But I 1183 00:54:07,960 --> 00:54:10,600 Speaker 6: do think that eventually you're gonna settle for some field 1184 00:54:10,600 --> 00:54:16,360 Speaker 6: goals against his Denver defense. And I question not a 1185 00:54:16,360 --> 00:54:18,960 Speaker 6: whole lot, but just how legit is the Colts defense, 1186 00:54:19,040 --> 00:54:22,120 Speaker 6: Like how much can you disrupt bow knicks? Because although 1187 00:54:22,160 --> 00:54:24,160 Speaker 6: I know they're gonna have some stuff for him, Sean 1188 00:54:24,239 --> 00:54:28,120 Speaker 6: Payton typically can get his young quarterback in position to 1189 00:54:28,200 --> 00:54:30,799 Speaker 6: have some success, so it'll be quite the chess match. 1190 00:54:30,840 --> 00:54:32,759 Speaker 6: But I'm going twenty four to twenty Colts to be 1191 00:54:32,800 --> 00:54:34,760 Speaker 6: two and zero for the first time since two thousand 1192 00:54:34,800 --> 00:54:35,280 Speaker 6: and nine. 1193 00:54:35,440 --> 00:54:37,799 Speaker 1: All Right, you shocked me a little bit there because 1194 00:54:37,800 --> 00:54:40,680 Speaker 1: I had written down nineteen sixteen. Oh and I thought 1195 00:54:40,680 --> 00:54:42,719 Speaker 1: the Broncos win, I think, and then the reason I 1196 00:54:42,760 --> 00:54:45,000 Speaker 1: picked that number a couple things. I do think that 1197 00:54:45,000 --> 00:54:46,640 Speaker 1: the under is gonna hit because I think there's gonna 1198 00:54:46,640 --> 00:54:48,680 Speaker 1: be a lot of field goals in this game, and 1199 00:54:48,760 --> 00:54:51,560 Speaker 1: Will Wats is a fine field goal kicker. Spencer Strader 1200 00:54:51,600 --> 00:54:53,560 Speaker 1: did a nice job last week. We'll see if he 1201 00:54:53,600 --> 00:54:55,440 Speaker 1: can keep that going. But I think it's gonna be 1202 00:54:55,480 --> 00:54:58,480 Speaker 1: a close game. And I just right now, I don't 1203 00:54:58,560 --> 00:55:01,920 Speaker 1: quite know which what is either team about right now? 1204 00:55:01,960 --> 00:55:03,839 Speaker 1: As impressed as I was with the Colts last week, 1205 00:55:03,880 --> 00:55:04,839 Speaker 1: is that really who they are? 1206 00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:05,359 Speaker 4: I hope? 1207 00:55:05,400 --> 00:55:06,680 Speaker 2: So, I hope it is. 1208 00:55:07,000 --> 00:55:09,160 Speaker 1: Denver came out with all these people picking him to 1209 00:55:09,160 --> 00:55:12,960 Speaker 1: win the AFC West and challenging playoffs and things like that, 1210 00:55:13,040 --> 00:55:14,960 Speaker 1: but they didn't look like they had the offense for 1211 00:55:15,000 --> 00:55:16,320 Speaker 1: that at all last week. 1212 00:55:16,520 --> 00:55:17,840 Speaker 2: So I expect a little. 1213 00:55:17,600 --> 00:55:20,400 Speaker 1: Bit of a bounce back from the Broncos offense. I 1214 00:55:20,480 --> 00:55:22,120 Speaker 1: would love to believe that the Colts are who we 1215 00:55:22,160 --> 00:55:23,880 Speaker 1: saw last week. I need to see it one or 1216 00:55:23,880 --> 00:55:26,640 Speaker 1: two more times, so I'll go Broncos right now. But 1217 00:55:26,800 --> 00:55:28,719 Speaker 1: nineteen sixteen, I think it's a battle of field goals 1218 00:55:28,719 --> 00:55:29,239 Speaker 1: for the most part. 1219 00:55:29,320 --> 00:55:31,600 Speaker 8: Yeah, I don't feel good about this game. Broncos defense 1220 00:55:31,680 --> 00:55:35,080 Speaker 8: is legit unlike the Dolphins. Can Daniel Jones replicate even 1221 00:55:35,120 --> 00:55:37,080 Speaker 8: half of what he did against them in Week one? 1222 00:55:37,160 --> 00:55:40,520 Speaker 8: And will Bonnix rebound from a poor Week one as well? 1223 00:55:41,000 --> 00:55:43,400 Speaker 8: I'm gonna say Broncos twenty to seventeen This isn't the 1224 00:55:43,480 --> 00:55:45,200 Speaker 8: end of the world of the Colts go one in one. 1225 00:55:45,400 --> 00:55:46,960 Speaker 8: You got the opener out of the way, you got 1226 00:55:47,000 --> 00:55:49,120 Speaker 8: the w there, and you've got Tennessee on deck. So 1227 00:55:49,120 --> 00:55:50,759 Speaker 8: I think you'll be okay if you lose this one. 1228 00:55:50,760 --> 00:55:51,759 Speaker 8: Who is Bonis? 1229 00:55:52,080 --> 00:55:52,560 Speaker 4: I don't know. 1230 00:55:52,800 --> 00:55:54,200 Speaker 5: I don't think we know yet, you know, Like, that 1231 00:55:54,320 --> 00:55:55,680 Speaker 5: was just a good question. I was talking with somebody 1232 00:55:55,760 --> 00:55:57,160 Speaker 5: the Colts earlier this week and they're like, did you 1233 00:55:57,200 --> 00:55:59,520 Speaker 5: see him week one? He looked like Auburn Bonicks, which 1234 00:55:59,600 --> 00:56:04,000 Speaker 5: Auburn was bad. Yeah, Oregon Bonix is why you got 1235 00:56:04,080 --> 00:56:07,360 Speaker 5: drafted exactly why I got drafted? What twelve overall or 1236 00:56:07,480 --> 00:56:10,719 Speaker 5: wherever he was? So that I think is a big question. 1237 00:56:10,800 --> 00:56:13,520 Speaker 5: And again, can Loui Anarumo create that. Nicks did play 1238 00:56:13,640 --> 00:56:17,480 Speaker 5: Ana Roumo late last season, you know, obviously Cincinnati, so 1239 00:56:17,560 --> 00:56:20,120 Speaker 5: he has seen this defense before. But you know, a 1240 00:56:20,120 --> 00:56:22,879 Speaker 5: lot of the listening to Bonex's press conference earlier this week, 1241 00:56:22,880 --> 00:56:25,319 Speaker 5: a lot of the chatter is just kind of all right, individually, yeah, 1242 00:56:25,360 --> 00:56:28,879 Speaker 5: you guys won, But so I think if you can 1243 00:56:29,000 --> 00:56:32,319 Speaker 5: put him into some less than favorable situations, I do 1244 00:56:32,360 --> 00:56:34,800 Speaker 5: think there's an ability for the Colts to create Havoc 1245 00:56:35,280 --> 00:56:37,040 Speaker 5: like they did last year against him. You know, Bonex 1246 00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:39,680 Speaker 5: was really bad against the Colts last year. So something 1247 00:56:39,719 --> 00:56:40,280 Speaker 5: to keep any. 1248 00:56:40,120 --> 00:56:44,160 Speaker 1: One thing that will be difficult for Denver to deal with. 1249 00:56:44,320 --> 00:56:44,840 Speaker 2: I think. 1250 00:56:45,560 --> 00:56:47,080 Speaker 1: I know they did a really good job against the 1251 00:56:47,320 --> 00:56:49,240 Speaker 1: lackluster Tennessee team last week. 1252 00:56:49,760 --> 00:56:50,920 Speaker 2: But if the Colts. 1253 00:56:50,680 --> 00:56:52,960 Speaker 1: Can get Jonathan Taylor going on the ground, Denver can 1254 00:56:53,040 --> 00:56:55,320 Speaker 1: be had on the ground. We've seen that a bunch 1255 00:56:55,360 --> 00:56:58,320 Speaker 1: of times in their season last year. So if the 1256 00:56:58,360 --> 00:57:00,320 Speaker 1: Colts do end up on the right side of the score, 1257 00:57:00,760 --> 00:57:02,960 Speaker 1: and I hope that's the case, they they're going to 1258 00:57:03,000 --> 00:57:04,919 Speaker 1: be leaning on JT a lot in this game. 1259 00:57:05,080 --> 00:57:09,879 Speaker 6: Are you familiar with the phrase get back, Jeff, I am. 1260 00:57:10,320 --> 00:57:12,239 Speaker 6: Explain They got to get some get back. I mean 1261 00:57:12,280 --> 00:57:14,319 Speaker 6: after last year, the way you went out there and 1262 00:57:14,360 --> 00:57:16,720 Speaker 6: got embarrassed, and that was one of the dumbest losses 1263 00:57:16,760 --> 00:57:19,560 Speaker 6: probably in franchise history. JT had one of the dumbest 1264 00:57:19,560 --> 00:57:22,400 Speaker 6: plays you will ever see. Ady Mitchell one of the 1265 00:57:22,480 --> 00:57:25,280 Speaker 6: dumbest plays you'll ever see. Chang Stikeen one of the 1266 00:57:25,320 --> 00:57:26,320 Speaker 6: dumbest play calls. 1267 00:57:26,160 --> 00:57:26,760 Speaker 5: You'll ever make. 1268 00:57:26,840 --> 00:57:28,439 Speaker 6: You gotta go out there and win, all. 1269 00:57:28,400 --> 00:57:31,200 Speaker 1: Right, that's coming on your way.
