1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,160
Speaker 1: Good morning every one in the brand new studios in

2
00:00:02,240 --> 00:00:07,360
Speaker 1: downtown Indianapolis. James Boy, Kevin Bowen, Jeff Record, Mark Dyton.

3
00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:09,600
Speaker 1: We put him behind some glass. You can't see it

4
00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:11,240
Speaker 1: right now. All the cameras are going to be installed

5
00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:13,960
Speaker 1: in the next couple of weeks. They moved us into

6
00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:16,520
Speaker 1: this brand new studio today. It's our first broadcast. They

7
00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:19,640
Speaker 1: built all the stuff over yesterday, the missing pieces anyway,

8
00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:22,840
Speaker 1: so it could be a ride today. Anything that does happen,

9
00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:25,200
Speaker 1: Mark Dyton has saved us from whatever the catastrophe there

10
00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:27,560
Speaker 1: will be, correct, Mark Dyton, That's just how that's going

11
00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:29,640
Speaker 1: to go. Have you figured out how to use your

12
00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:31,680
Speaker 1: mic and put it on the area yet? No, he

13
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:35,519
Speaker 1: is not yet. I can't hear him. No, we are

14
00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:37,199
Speaker 1: off and running. But man, do we have things to

15
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:37,640
Speaker 1: talk about?

16
00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:38,199
Speaker 2: Can you hear me?

17
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:40,479
Speaker 1: Now? I can hear you. Now you got there, you go.

18
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:43,200
Speaker 2: We're like the Colts quarterback situation. There's ten million buttons.

19
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:45,519
Speaker 1: I know how to do five of them. That's beautiful.

20
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:48,240
Speaker 2: That's where we're at. Above the table in there, Mark,

21
00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:50,839
Speaker 2: that's what we're most worried about. Too many people in

22
00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:51,839
Speaker 2: there right now for that.

23
00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:55,360
Speaker 1: Caleb's in there with you too, So there you go. Yeah,

24
00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:57,680
Speaker 1: big day out of the Colts facilities yesterday. That's what

25
00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:00,200
Speaker 1: we're going to talk about most of the day Todayhlip

26
00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:03,160
Speaker 1: Rivers joins the practice squad. They have not yet made

27
00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:06,200
Speaker 1: him active. I believe they also elevated Brett Rippon to

28
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:08,520
Speaker 1: the fifty three man roster yesterday. But I'll turn it

29
00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:11,600
Speaker 1: over to you, Kevin Bowen. What a whirlwind of the day.

30
00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:14,000
Speaker 1: I mean, could you We talked about all the time,

31
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:15,720
Speaker 1: but it almost seems surreal for you to pull up

32
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:17,560
Speaker 1: at West fifty six and go, yeah, I'm going in

33
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 1: and I'm going to talk to Philip Rivers about being

34
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:22,920
Speaker 1: the starting quarterback again for the Indianapolis Colts, potentially on Sunday.

35
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:25,399
Speaker 3: It was quite the scene, certainly a day I will

36
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:29,160
Speaker 3: never forget in my you know, I guess journalism a career,

37
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,840
Speaker 3: and covering forty four year old Philip Rivers at the podium.

38
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:34,800
Speaker 3: I haven't seen Shane Styke and that fired up on

39
00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:38,039
Speaker 3: a Wednesday in quite a while. That is what I

40
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 3: was most struck by, was just I think the aura

41
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,840
Speaker 3: of Philip Rivers is alive and well inside of Shane

42
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:47,080
Speaker 3: stike In and I think he is all.

43
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:47,360
Speaker 2: In on it.

44
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:50,000
Speaker 3: James, I would say the thing I was most surprised

45
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 3: by yesterday was the fact that I walk away from

46
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 3: West fifty sixth Street. Riley Leonard was a full participant

47
00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:59,800
Speaker 3: in practice, and yet I still fully believe Philip Rivers

48
00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 3: is starting quarterback on Sunday.

49
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:04,120
Speaker 2: And I would not have guessed that going into the day.

50
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:08,679
Speaker 3: I would have assumed Leonard was either not practicing or limited,

51
00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:13,079
Speaker 3: but he was full. And I think we're gonna watch

52
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:13,920
Speaker 3: a movie on Sunday.

53
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:17,920
Speaker 2: I don't know if it'd been a good movie. I said,

54
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:18,239
Speaker 2: a movie.

55
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 1: You're so skeptical.

56
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:24,280
Speaker 4: You can you blame me. The guy has been away

57
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,359
Speaker 4: from football for nearly five years. He's a grandfather, young

58
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:30,320
Speaker 4: grandfather has a key referencing. But I felt the same way,

59
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 4: and that, to me cannot be understated. We probably can't

60
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 4: even overstate it to a degree, because in my opinion,

61
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:44,120
Speaker 4: it was so clear that they believe this dude can

62
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:46,639
Speaker 4: actually play. And I believe it was you or someone

63
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,639
Speaker 4: else was like, Okay, if Riley is healthy to go,

64
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:50,680
Speaker 4: is he your starter?

65
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:52,080
Speaker 2: Well, we'll see.

66
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 4: Anytime you hear that phrase from a coach in any sport,

67
00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 4: we'll see or you know, let's let's kind of play

68
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 4: this out, or we're evaluating everything to us.

69
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 2: You the term they're making a change.

70
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,800
Speaker 4: So I would think that they're going to start Philip Rivers,

71
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:12,640
Speaker 4: like you said Kevin on Sunday in Seattle, which is

72
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:16,720
Speaker 4: crazy because what two weeks ago he was coaching his

73
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 4: son's high school football team.

74
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:23,760
Speaker 1: It's all fantastical, fantastical, It's crazy all the things that

75
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,560
Speaker 1: are going on. I'm just curious, was what was it

76
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:28,320
Speaker 1: like in the locker room the folks you talk. We

77
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:30,840
Speaker 1: heard from Michael Pittman Junior yesterday in a lot of

78
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 1: things that he had to say. But there are still

79
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:35,320
Speaker 1: twelve guys on this roster that played with Philip Rivers

80
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 1: when he was here last year. What's the vibe in

81
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:41,680
Speaker 1: the locker room? Yeah?

82
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:47,560
Speaker 3: Unknown, Yeah, I think they love Phillip's juice. But I

83
00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:51,120
Speaker 3: mean they are human beings. I think they're just as

84
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:53,240
Speaker 3: nervous as a forty four year old quarterback potentially going

85
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 3: out there as anybody else. I mean, you know, we

86
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 3: can get into this, and I say, in all seriousness,

87
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:00,640
Speaker 3: Philip Rivers didn't look like a guy that all of

88
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 3: a sudden is gonna be running, you know, wind sprints

89
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:05,240
Speaker 3: up and down the field for sixty minutes on Sunday.

90
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 3: Like I legitimately asked this question, how did Philip Rivers

91
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:12,320
Speaker 3: feel waking up today? I mean, when is the last

92
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:16,120
Speaker 3: time he is exerted the physical activity that was called

93
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 3: of him and practiced yesterday? James, he wore full pat

94
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:21,160
Speaker 3: I mean the Colts were in pats yesterday. I was

95
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:24,800
Speaker 3: surprised by that, Like they they changed up so much.

96
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:28,240
Speaker 2: Of their script for Philip Rivers, so I I you

97
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:29,679
Speaker 2: know again, I was kind.

98
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:33,919
Speaker 3: Of struck by that as well, like, legitimately, how is

99
00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 3: he going to feel a today? And then b what

100
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:40,200
Speaker 3: if the Colts get into like a two minute situation

101
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 3: in the game on Sunday, Like how is he holding

102
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:46,120
Speaker 3: up over the course of whatever eight.

103
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:49,000
Speaker 2: Thirty seconds?

104
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:54,159
Speaker 3: I'm like that, yeah, but like again, are like these

105
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:58,760
Speaker 3: are things that very well could be popping up on Sunday.

106
00:04:58,880 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 1: So it was.

107
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,560
Speaker 3: It was an odd day. I don't think there's any

108
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:08,280
Speaker 3: other way to describe it. You know, there is good

109
00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:10,360
Speaker 3: news with the forst Buckner getting back to practice and

110
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:13,800
Speaker 3: you know that aspect to it. But again I walk

111
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,720
Speaker 3: away from yesterday surprised a little bit like I was

112
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 3: under the impression that Riley.

113
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:20,520
Speaker 2: Leonard was too hurt to play.

114
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 3: And in the NFL world, if you are a quarterback,

115
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 3: the starting quarterback in the football team, which again Riley

116
00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 3: Leonard is the starting quarterback based off the death chart,

117
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:32,360
Speaker 3: if you are the starting quarterback on the football team

118
00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:35,640
Speaker 3: and you practice Wednesday, let alone practice full, you are

119
00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:37,520
Speaker 3: the starting quarterback that Sunday one hundred times out of

120
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:41,440
Speaker 3: one hundred, and yet my gut says it's Philip Rivers

121
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:43,479
Speaker 3: on Sunday.

122
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 1: I'm sure there's reason he's sticking around and putting on pads.

123
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:47,920
Speaker 1: It'll be interesting to see what they do now. They

124
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:50,720
Speaker 1: could always do if it becomes apparent after a quarter

125
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,400
Speaker 1: quarter and a half James that this is not going

126
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:55,480
Speaker 1: to work, then they just move on to Plan B.

127
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:58,520
Speaker 1: And right now, if you say that Riley Leonard is

128
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:02,920
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, is it Brett Rippon that comes

129
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:04,480
Speaker 1: back in or at that point in time they bring

130
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:08,279
Speaker 1: Riley Leonard back. And also, if you're Riley Leonard, you

131
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:11,560
Speaker 1: didn't play horribly last week. But clearly the Colts have

132
00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:16,320
Speaker 1: stated if they start Daniel Jones, they're clearly going yeah, right,

133
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:18,840
Speaker 1: Riley's not ready to be our quarterback? And who else

134
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:20,920
Speaker 1: out there? For all the people who have been criticizing

135
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:23,760
Speaker 1: this move, and I get it, but who else is

136
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:27,479
Speaker 1: out there? Well, you already know, you already know the

137
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:29,159
Speaker 1: guys that are out there cannot help you win.

138
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:29,400
Speaker 5: Right?

139
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 2: So is Philip Rivers a better option than Riley Leonard?

140
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:33,720
Speaker 1: At least he's an unknown the rest of them. I

141
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,240
Speaker 1: personally don't know where Riley's at in his development within

142
00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:37,800
Speaker 1: that offense. I don't see it every day like you

143
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,359
Speaker 1: guys do. I don't know what his comfort level with

144
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:42,560
Speaker 1: the offense is, what his comfort level with Shane is,

145
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 1: if Shane is comfortable with how he runs the offense,

146
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 1: I don't know.

147
00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:51,080
Speaker 2: Like watching Riley Leonards Sunday in Jacksonville, I did not

148
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:53,919
Speaker 2: walk away from that performance thinking you should call a

149
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,120
Speaker 2: man that hasn't thrown a football in the NFL game

150
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:57,760
Speaker 2: in five years. I never felt that. I didn't feel

151
00:06:57,760 --> 00:06:59,560
Speaker 2: that right. I mean, he wasn't that bad.

152
00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:01,440
Speaker 3: I'm not saying, and you're saying, you know, build a

153
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:02,960
Speaker 3: statue next to Peyton of him.

154
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:05,279
Speaker 2: But like I thought, Riley Leonard.

155
00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:07,599
Speaker 3: Did an okay job, and I was curious what he

156
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:11,119
Speaker 3: would look like with a full week of practice. And again,

157
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:13,480
Speaker 3: this knee injury does not seem to be anything that

158
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 3: is that impactful on a his practice schedule and be

159
00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 3: him playing on Sunday. We see quarterbacks all the time,

160
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,720
Speaker 3: this Wednesday practice, maybe even a Thursday practice, and still

161
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,440
Speaker 3: playing that game on Sunday. But for Leonard right now,

162
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,920
Speaker 3: maybe I had misread the room, But I read the

163
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 3: room of the energy that Philip Rivers brings is something

164
00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:39,280
Speaker 3: that Shane styke In is obsessed with and he feels like,

165
00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 3: whether he wants to admit it or not, James, I

166
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 3: really feel like he've used this football team as reeling

167
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:44,840
Speaker 3: right now.

168
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:49,200
Speaker 2: They've lost four or five. It's a sinking ship and

169
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 2: here comes somebody to save the Titanic, and he brings

170
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:56,720
Speaker 2: juice and energy that can potentially do that.

171
00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:58,520
Speaker 1: It's interesting you bring that up. It might have be

172
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:01,160
Speaker 1: admitting your story, Kevin. But Philip Rivers is saying yesterday,

173
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,240
Speaker 1: I'm not here to be a savior. We need to

174
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:04,720
Speaker 1: play defense and run the ball.

175
00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 3: Is what he said, Right, Steve didn't run the football, right, Yeah,

176
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:08,080
Speaker 3: that's what he's said.

177
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:10,080
Speaker 1: I have to sometimes you have to clean Philip up.

178
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:12,480
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Well, actually you don't. He

179
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 1: never that's the joke, that was the point. But it's

180
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:20,840
Speaker 1: going to be interesting. So they were forgotten for people

181
00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 1: wondering he is wearing number seventeen with Daniel Jones not

182
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:27,119
Speaker 1: on the active roster. Correct, Yes he is, So that'll

183
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:31,120
Speaker 1: be number seventeen again. So at least you have you

184
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:32,040
Speaker 1: have that consistency.

185
00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:34,680
Speaker 4: I just hope he doesn't join him on ir Man.

186
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:36,559
Speaker 4: It could get rough out there in Seattle.

187
00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:41,040
Speaker 1: Also, we have barely even spoken about Purdue last night,

188
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:44,319
Speaker 1: a really nice bounce back game and an unbelievable game

189
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:46,480
Speaker 1: again from Braden Smith. We'll be talking about that a

190
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:48,240
Speaker 1: little bit later on today. That Mott is going to

191
00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 1: join Hiss, the head coach of Butler basketball. That'll be

192
00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:52,120
Speaker 1: coming up at eight thirty today. So a lot of

193
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:56,600
Speaker 1: college basketball to get to today. But you know, have

194
00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:59,240
Speaker 1: you been surprised, Kevin, the fact real quickly that that

195
00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:02,520
Speaker 1: Purdue has been early in the season a little inconsistent.

196
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 1: They've either had great games or struggle a little bit.

197
00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:09,800
Speaker 3: I mean, I would really unless I'm missing a game.

198
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 3: Wasn't Iowa State really the only real bad game? I mean,

199
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:14,000
Speaker 3: they went to Alabama and won.

200
00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:15,840
Speaker 1: It wasn't a bad game, but it just I know

201
00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:17,640
Speaker 1: that mass I will say it was awful.

202
00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:20,120
Speaker 3: But outside of that, I mean, they ran Texas tack

203
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:22,520
Speaker 3: out of the gym and won at Alabama. So I

204
00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:25,280
Speaker 3: don't know if it's been an inconsistent start to the season.

205
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:29,360
Speaker 3: You know, yesterday I thought that was a big time

206
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:31,120
Speaker 3: second half of them. You know, the twenty to two

207
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:33,160
Speaker 3: run right out of the gate, and you know, great

208
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:35,400
Speaker 3: balance from them. You mentioned Braden so at both ends

209
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,559
Speaker 3: of the floor. Hopefully his left hand is okay. It

210
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:39,320
Speaker 3: looked like he was favoring that a little bit.

211
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:40,240
Speaker 2: Throughout the game.

212
00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:43,080
Speaker 3: But yeah, exactly what you would want from Purdue. Minnesota's terrible.

213
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:45,080
Speaker 3: They're in your own building. Run him out of the gym.

214
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 2: Took a while, but they eventually got there first two.

215
00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:48,560
Speaker 2: And I was starting a couple of years for.

216
00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:51,200
Speaker 3: Purduing the Big Ten, which not something that would have

217
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:53,840
Speaker 3: totally resonated with me, but I guess it makes sense

218
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:56,760
Speaker 3: with the occasional December road Big ten loss.

219
00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:58,679
Speaker 1: All right, coming up at a moment, we'll check things down,

220
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:00,280
Speaker 1: We'll get you ready to go for a big day

221
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:02,840
Speaker 1: for the Colts. Today. We'll see what happens in day two.

222
00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 1: How does Philip Rivers feel after he slept off the

223
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:09,880
Speaker 1: first day of long and vigorous activity yesterday? The Colts

224
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 1: man ice tubs and being gay? Right there you go, Ebsence, Baby,

225
00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:16,360
Speaker 1: it's all coming up next ninety three five one o

226
00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:23,439
Speaker 1: seven the Fan and one seven five the Fan. Good

227
00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:25,680
Speaker 1: morning everyone, walking into the Fan. Morning showed on with

228
00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:28,439
Speaker 1: Kevin bowen Man, James Boyd, Mark Dighton's got his own

229
00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:31,240
Speaker 1: little uh what do you want to call that? A

230
00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 1: you like your own little special apartment back there.

231
00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:37,560
Speaker 2: Yes, studio, but I have him pants on some of it, like.

232
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:40,360
Speaker 4: The kitchen or refrigerator, all kinds of stuff. I feel

233
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:42,679
Speaker 4: like him being over in that space. He's just got

234
00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:44,120
Speaker 4: too much freedom on his hands.

235
00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 5: Literally.

236
00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:46,840
Speaker 1: It feels like his power meter just didn't went up,

237
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:47,160
Speaker 1: didn't it.

238
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:47,679
Speaker 5: I know.

239
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:50,200
Speaker 1: Uh, Here's what's going on in the world of sports.

240
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:54,000
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers is indeed with the Indianapolis Colts. He's on

241
00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:56,440
Speaker 1: the practice squad right now. What do we expect to

242
00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:59,160
Speaker 1: see happen if if he doesn't fall apart in the

243
00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:01,640
Speaker 1: next two three days, Well.

244
00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:03,720
Speaker 4: I would expect him to be elevated to the active

245
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:06,360
Speaker 4: roster at some point this week and we all know

246
00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:09,560
Speaker 4: if that happens, he's gonna play. So that was my

247
00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:14,280
Speaker 4: biggest takeaway from yesterday. And as Kevin alluded to, that

248
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:16,640
Speaker 4: was the most excited I've ever heard Shane Styken be.

249
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:19,400
Speaker 4: And boy, if they are able to get into the

250
00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:22,680
Speaker 4: playoffs with Philip Rivers, he might, you know, I don't know.

251
00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:26,120
Speaker 4: We have to like rethink our uh our thoughts on

252
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:28,280
Speaker 4: on Shane Stykeen and how excited he can be because.

253
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:31,679
Speaker 2: He's usually so boring. He was actually giddy, Kevin.

254
00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:32,880
Speaker 1: He was giddy.

255
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:33,200
Speaker 2: Yeah.

256
00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 3: Again, that was the thing I was struck by the

257
00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 3: most yesterday. It was just the pure energy level the

258
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:41,120
Speaker 3: juice that Philip Rivers has brought at least to Shane

259
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:42,760
Speaker 3: dyke And we'll see how much to the building and

260
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:45,680
Speaker 3: we'll see how much the juice can be squeezed on Sunday.

261
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:47,520
Speaker 2: But yeah, that's my my subject.

262
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:49,319
Speaker 3: And again I was surprised to see Riley Leonard a

263
00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:51,880
Speaker 3: full participatet in practice. I thought that was a part

264
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:56,360
Speaker 3: of the Philip Rivers thing was you know, Ryle Leanard

265
00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:58,520
Speaker 3: isn't healthy enough to play in the game, and that

266
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:02,480
Speaker 3: is not true. It is good to go, so, you know,

267
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:05,200
Speaker 3: and Leus Philip Rivers tripped and falled a few times

268
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:07,640
Speaker 3: in practice and wakes up today and is like, yeah,

269
00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:08,439
Speaker 3: I just can't do it.

270
00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:10,120
Speaker 2: I expect him to start on Sunday.

271
00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,480
Speaker 1: Kevin, what about the rest of the injury situation. You

272
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 1: mentioned that DeForest Buckner was practicing again. What about him?

273
00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:17,719
Speaker 1: What about Sauce Gardner? What about the offensive linemen that

274
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:18,520
Speaker 1: are banged up right now?

275
00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:20,920
Speaker 3: Yes, on the good news front, the Forest Buckner was back.

276
00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:23,840
Speaker 3: First time he's practiced over a month. We'll see exactly

277
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:26,600
Speaker 3: where he's at. You know, from a what does three

278
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:29,199
Speaker 3: days of practice look like for him? Could he get

279
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:30,920
Speaker 3: out there and play even a limited.

280
00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 2: Role on Sunday?

281
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:33,679
Speaker 3: You know, typically guys that have been on injured reserve

282
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:35,599
Speaker 3: for at least a month, usually it takes him a

283
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,560
Speaker 3: couple of weeks. But Buckner would seem to be potentially

284
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 3: a unique case in that. No Sauce Gardner, no Braden Smith.

285
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:45,440
Speaker 3: So I think we're looking at a rookie at right

286
00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:48,319
Speaker 3: tackle in Jalen Travis, and then at corner. We obviously

287
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:50,400
Speaker 3: know Mooney Ward went on injured reserve. That happened, I

288
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:53,319
Speaker 3: guess right, as our show ended yesterday, so to face

289
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 3: the top receiver in the NFL, you're back to Jalen

290
00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:59,679
Speaker 3: Jones and Makai Blackman as your outside corners.

291
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:00,560
Speaker 2: Coming up on Sunday.

292
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:03,240
Speaker 1: All right, that'll of course be Sunday afternoon for twenty

293
00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:06,040
Speaker 1: five kick. Now keep this in mind. On Sunday, we'll

294
00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:08,240
Speaker 1: have an Indiana Pacers game for you during the middle

295
00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:10,240
Speaker 1: of that, so you'll listen to some pre game with

296
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:12,120
Speaker 1: us here at ninety three five one seven five to Fan,

297
00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:15,199
Speaker 1: but the entire broadcast will be in ninety seven point

298
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:18,120
Speaker 1: one Hank FM. Coming up on Sunday. We'll remind you

299
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:21,880
Speaker 1: that many times. Oh wow. Also, those headphones do work, Mark,

300
00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:25,119
Speaker 1: I'll tell you that. Last night college basketball, after Purdue

301
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:27,880
Speaker 1: led only thirty five thirty two at a half, the

302
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:30,679
Speaker 1: Boiler Rakers open the second half James a twenty one

303
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:33,680
Speaker 1: nothing run. But here's the craziest part. That's already produced

304
00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:38,120
Speaker 1: third run of twenty or more points or longer this season.

305
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:40,400
Speaker 1: We haven't even gotten to January first yet.

306
00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:42,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, I know, they got beat down by Iowa States

307
00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:45,720
Speaker 4: and the cyclone start out the Tyres Halliburton's alma mater,

308
00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:48,719
Speaker 4: but they're still a very good team. And unlike in

309
00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:51,320
Speaker 4: college football where we freak out every week about oh

310
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:54,560
Speaker 4: my gosh, you lost and your season's over long season,

311
00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 4: in basketball, great bounce back win for them.

312
00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:58,240
Speaker 1: Yeah that was in Braden Smith Kevin. We got to

313
00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:02,400
Speaker 1: mention fifteen points, twelve assists, six rebounds, five steals. He

314
00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:05,120
Speaker 1: even had two block shots. That's one of the great

315
00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:06,160
Speaker 1: stat stuff.

316
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:09,000
Speaker 4: On the man, he could do a lot of great things,

317
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:10,439
Speaker 4: but he's blocking side.

318
00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:11,080
Speaker 2: He's on one.

319
00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:14,720
Speaker 1: Let's go, so they get the win there. Of course, Kevin.

320
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:17,800
Speaker 1: Indiana will play again this weekend against Kentucky down in

00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:19,200
Speaker 1: Lexington Rupp Arena.

322
00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:21,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, opposite the Heisman trophy ceremony.

323
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:25,040
Speaker 3: So who would have ever thought Indiana fans would have

324
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,920
Speaker 3: to make a decision on IU Kentucky's basketball game.

325
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:30,960
Speaker 1: You just take your phone with you, don't you? You

328
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:36,960
Speaker 2: do that?

329
00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:38,120
Speaker 1: Do you still have it on yours?

330
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:41,360
Speaker 2: I used to love Pip back in the day. I

331
00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:43,480
Speaker 2: have no idea what you're talking about. Picture and picture.

332
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:46,600
Speaker 1: Man, you get a TV and you'd be watching one picture.

333
00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:48,800
Speaker 2: Like Thursday Night football on tonight and then bottom right

334
00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:52,600

00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:02,640
Speaker 4: So I'm a multiview person.

340
00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:04,240
Speaker 2: Get with the Times people.

341
00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 5: All right.

342
00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:07,960
Speaker 1: In one of the stranger stories that we have seen

343
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:12,000
Speaker 1: in quite some time, Sharon Moore was in custody last

344
00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:15,560
Speaker 1: night as a suspect in an alleged assault just ours

345
00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:18,840
Speaker 1: James after getting the boot at Michigan for having what

346
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:22,440
Speaker 1: the school was calling, very frankly in their little statement,

347
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 1: an inappropriate relationship with the staff member. They have fired

348
00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:30,000
Speaker 1: him with cause, and then he goes into custody a

349
00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:31,840
Speaker 1: suspect in an alleged assault.

350
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:34,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm sure a lot more will come out about that.

351
00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:38,240
Speaker 4: It sounds like it's a very frightening situation. So I

352
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:40,360
Speaker 4: don't want to make light of it, and we'll see

353
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:43,800
Speaker 4: how it plays out. But suddenly, on the football part

354
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:46,080
Speaker 4: of it, one of the biggest jobs in college football

355
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:46,680
Speaker 4: is open.

356
00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:49,360
Speaker 1: Man oh Man. But hoping this late too, remember just

357
00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:51,720
Speaker 1: all the drama we've gone through, the pass cuping couple

358
00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:54,760
Speaker 1: of coaches exactly. It'll be interesting to see what happens NBA.

359
00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:57,040
Speaker 1: Last night, they continued play in the Western Conference for

360
00:15:57,080 --> 00:16:01,400
Speaker 1: the NBA Cup. The Oklahoma City Thunder guy one thirty

361
00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:04,120
Speaker 1: eight eighty nine winners last night over the Suns. I

362
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:06,520
Speaker 1: think that's the worst beatdown the Suns I've ever had

363
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:10,040
Speaker 1: in franchise history. Twenty four and one KB for the

364
00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:13,040
Speaker 1: Oklahoma City Thunder and they're averaging a win by seventeen

365
00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:13,800
Speaker 1: points a game.

366
00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:14,480
Speaker 5: Yeah.

367
00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:16,320
Speaker 2: I like this final four for the NBA Cup.

368
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:20,840
Speaker 3: You know you got Thunder, Spurs, Magic and Nicks here,

369
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:23,000
Speaker 3: So I mean you look at it, teams that can

370
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:27,600
Speaker 3: be thought could be final sort of contenders, young talent,

371
00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:28,880
Speaker 3: up and coming teams.

372
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:31,520
Speaker 2: It's a really nice little final four here for the

373
00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:32,080
Speaker 2: NBA Cup.

374
00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:34,960
Speaker 4: And this is the Wimby lists Spurs, So shout out

Speaker 1: Yeah, Spurs one nineteen last night. Boy, they got talent

377
00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:43,240

Speaker 1: going on with Philip Rivers the other day. But do

390

Speaker 1: athletic brethren on how things might be going as there

392
00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:15,000
Speaker 1: was a sham's report that the Pacers could be looking

393
00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:15,920
Speaker 1: to trade for a center.

394
00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:18,760

395
00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:21,840
Speaker 4: into those things at some point, but my head has

396
00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:25,639
Speaker 4: been deep in the River's archives, and honestly, I'm like

00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:48,760
Speaker 1: run to start. Think, So that's how you went at home,

473
00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:49,400
Speaker 1: by the way.

474
00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:51,240
Speaker 2: That's how you get that belt put on you.

475
00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:53,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, and Boody Colt's going to be back at

476
00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:55,520
Speaker 1: practice a little bit later on today. We'll see how

477
00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:58,520
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers bounces back from a very busy day yesterday.

478
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:01,000
Speaker 1: And we talked a lot if you're just joining us

479
00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:03,240
Speaker 1: this morning, we've talked a lot already about you know,

480
00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:07,200
Speaker 1: how Shane Stikeen just seems in like on cloud nine

481
00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:10,760
Speaker 1: right now, Kevin like he is floating with with Philip

482
00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:11,680
Speaker 1: Rivers coming to town.

483
00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:14,199
Speaker 2: Yes, that is a great way to put it.

484
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:17,440
Speaker 3: I have not seen Shane Syken that energized in quite

485
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:20,520
Speaker 3: a while. And you know, if you want to get

486
00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:22,840
Speaker 3: a little bit more into maybe okay, where are the

487
00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 3: Colts at having lost four of five? They need an

488
00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:31,280
Speaker 3: injection of life now again. You know, Sunday at four

489
00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:34,040
Speaker 3: twenty five will be the big decider and exactly how

490
00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:38,159
Speaker 3: much the injection of life has occurred. But for now,

491
00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:43,640
Speaker 3: Philip Rivers undoubtedly he brings energy, he brings certainly he's

492
00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:47,159
Speaker 3: such a unique football player period. You know, you hear

493
00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:49,439
Speaker 3: Jack Doyle talk about him yesterday and we had him on.

494
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:52,280
Speaker 3: You know, I think it's a very easy gravitational pull,

495
00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:54,800
Speaker 3: even during the COVID year that Jack experience with Philip

496
00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:57,240
Speaker 3: Rivers that guys you.

497
00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:59,000
Speaker 2: Know, might feel. But again, how long is all of

498
00:21:59,000 --> 00:21:59,920
Speaker 2: that going to last?

499
00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:03,280
Speaker 3: I think that's kind of where I sit on this

500
00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:06,439
Speaker 3: Thursday morning, and I'll reiterate what I said earlier. I

501
00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:09,280
Speaker 3: expect him to start unless things just look awful in practice,

502
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:11,000
Speaker 3: unless he woke up and felt like a forty four

503
00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:12,840
Speaker 3: year old that had worked out in a different manner

504
00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:15,320
Speaker 3: for the first time in five years, I expect him

505
00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:16,680
Speaker 3: to be the guy on Sunday.

506
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:21,080
Speaker 1: It's interesting when you hear him talk all day yesterday,

507
00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:23,879
Speaker 1: James is he's answering questions and talking about why he

508
00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:25,920
Speaker 1: wanted to come back and why you wanted to be

509
00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:28,480
Speaker 1: a part of this franchise and all those kinds of things.

510
00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:32,080
Speaker 1: As a reporter, you're sitting in that room, and this

511
00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:34,200
Speaker 1: is kind of unprecedented. Right So, now, what.

512
00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:38,199
Speaker 4: It truly is, and the way I look at it, Jeff,

513
00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:43,840
Speaker 4: and the way I can perhaps explain it best is

514
00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:47,680
Speaker 4: the fact that when we were talking to Zire Franklin,

515
00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:52,000
Speaker 4: he said talking to Philip is like talking to shame,

516
00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:55,480
Speaker 4: and that right there really summed it up for me,

517
00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:59,120
Speaker 4: because we can go through all of the other possibilities

518
00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:01,960
Speaker 4: at quarterback and also knew with Newsworthy shot out to

519
00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:06,359
Speaker 4: my guy, Parker Gabriel, who is a Denver Broncos reporter

520
00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:07,480
Speaker 4: for the Denver Post.

521
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,520
Speaker 2: He reported, and actually not even really a report. He

522
00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:11,159
Speaker 2: went and talked to.

523
00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:14,200
Speaker 4: Sam because you remember we kept asking why he wasn't chosen.

524
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:17,720
Speaker 4: Sam turned him down, so they reached out, and it

525
00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:22,720
Speaker 4: sounds like from his reporting Parker Gabriel again that the

526
00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:27,080
Speaker 4: Colts wanted to bring in Sam and Philip Rivers. So

527
00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:30,720
Speaker 4: this is me speculating at this point, perhaps it wasn't

528
00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:33,000
Speaker 4: as enticing for Sam to be like, all right, why

529
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:35,399
Speaker 4: would I leave the situation I'm in where I'm a

530
00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:38,439
Speaker 4: backup to go somewhere else to be the backup? Because

531
00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:40,600
Speaker 4: he's not a dumb guy. He probably knows okay, I

532
00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:43,000
Speaker 4: know the offense, but not as well as that dude.

533
00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:45,800
Speaker 2: So we will see how it all shakes out.

534
00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:48,760
Speaker 4: But again, it feels like they're talking to each other

535
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:51,080
Speaker 4: kind of like in the mirror, and one guy is

536
00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:54,240
Speaker 4: just physically what we think, able to play the game

537
00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:55,760
Speaker 4: where Shame will be coaching the game.

538
00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:58,000
Speaker 2: Mark are we able to cueue up any audio clips?

539
00:23:58,200 --> 00:23:59,240
Speaker 2: I don't know how we are from.

540
00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:01,720
Speaker 7: A technological so sure, we're just throwing stuff against the

541
00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:03,919
Speaker 7: wall that we should be Okay, though I figure it out.

542
00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:05,240
Speaker 1: Phil, He's so happy today.

543
00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:06,120
Speaker 2: I'm a little clip.

544
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:08,760
Speaker 3: Number four Mark Phillip Rivers on why he wants to

545
00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:11,640
Speaker 3: come back to playing at the age of forty four.

546
00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:12,600
Speaker 1: Trying to get emotional.

547
00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:16,320
Speaker 8: Actually, you asking that as simple as as can be

548
00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:21,240
Speaker 8: as a coach that I love and an organization that

549
00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:25,440
Speaker 8: I really enjoyed being with. You know, mister ersay believing

550
00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:26,879
Speaker 8: in me in that year in twenty twenty when it

551
00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:32,080
Speaker 8: didn't go so good in twenty nineteen. And shoot, the

552
00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:34,960
Speaker 8: teammates that I was were able to play with, Shoot,

553
00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:38,440
Speaker 8: fourteen of them are still here. Training rooms the same,

554
00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:43,360
Speaker 8: pr guys are the same equipment rooms the same and

555
00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:47,800
Speaker 8: they wanted me, And you know, I try to keep

556
00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:50,600
Speaker 8: it as simple as that. And you know, a game

557
00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:52,880
Speaker 8: game I love to play, a game that I thought

558
00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:55,840
Speaker 8: it was was I was done playing. Certainly I wasn't

559
00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:59,240
Speaker 8: really hanging on any hope of playing again. I kind

560
00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:03,760
Speaker 8: of thought that ship that sailed, but something about it

561
00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:06,040
Speaker 8: excited me. And Uh, it's kind of one of those deals.

562
00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:08,199
Speaker 8: The door opens and you can either walk through it

563
00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:11,480
Speaker 8: and find out if you can do it or or

564
00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:15,120
Speaker 8: run from it. And I know, I know that there's

565
00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:18,640
Speaker 8: there's risk involved obviously of what may or may may

566
00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:20,399
Speaker 8: not happen, but the only way to find out is

567
00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:23,480
Speaker 8: going for it. And uh, I just felt almost like

568
00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:26,680
Speaker 8: it was a gift, another opportunity to play and cut

569
00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:28,160
Speaker 8: it loose with your guys in the game you love

570
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:30,480
Speaker 8: to play and the dream that you got to live,

571
00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:32,879
Speaker 8: you get you may get some bonus time. So I

572
00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:34,679
Speaker 8: really kept it as kept it as simple as that

573
00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:37,560
Speaker 8: in my mind. And uh and here I stand.

574
00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:41,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, I find it interesting James that Phillips said yesterday

575
00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:44,000
Speaker 3: he was watching the Colts game on Sunday Live when

576
00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:47,680
Speaker 3: Daniel Jones went down and he did think to himself,

577
00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:51,440
Speaker 3: will Sheanstak can call me? And sure enough, a few

578
00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:56,560
Speaker 3: hours later, Shanton Stakin dials them up and the rest

579
00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:59,760
Speaker 3: is history here. And so you know, one of my

580
00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:03,680
Speaker 3: big takeaways from yesterday is this has a lot less

581
00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:07,119
Speaker 3: to do with the health and availability of Riley Leonard

582
00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:11,119
Speaker 3: than I previously thought. Absolutely, to me, I agree with you,

583
00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:16,600
Speaker 3: is much more about Shane Stiken thinking that too football

584
00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:20,359
Speaker 3: obsessed individuals, given the state of the quarterback room right now,

585
00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:25,399
Speaker 3: can somehow, some way, Chess match their way into staying

586
00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:29,040
Speaker 3: out of bad plays, making the right pre snap checks.

587
00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:32,880
Speaker 3: This that obviously you have to rely on Jonathan Taylor

588
00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:34,879
Speaker 3: like no other. Your defense can't play anywhere near like

589
00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:37,919
Speaker 3: it did last week. And you pray for rain and

590
00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:40,920
Speaker 3: that the wet football luck bounces your way in Seattle

591
00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:41,399
Speaker 3: on Sunday.

592
00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:45,840
Speaker 1: Well, it's gonna be fascinating to watch. And obviously it's

593
00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:49,080
Speaker 1: a lottery ticket, James, you hope that it pays off

594
00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:51,840
Speaker 1: out of the well Willie Wonker right now, Well, you're

595
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:54,440
Speaker 1: hopeful that you get that golden ticket because you clearly,

596
00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:58,160
Speaker 1: to your point, there's some juice. There's obviously the community,

597
00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:00,320
Speaker 1: the connection between the coach and the quarterback and all

598
00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:02,880
Speaker 1: that stuff. But when you look at the other options

599
00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:05,680
Speaker 1: that were available to you, you probably say to yourself, look,

600
00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:08,400
Speaker 1: we've lost four out of five. Anyway, this isn't looking good.

601
00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:10,920
Speaker 1: Maybe we get to Forest back. Maybe at some point

602
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:13,480
Speaker 1: you get Sauce Gardner back. But to your point yesterday, Kevin,

603
00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:15,959
Speaker 1: if you just win two of four and so, if

604
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:18,800
Speaker 1: you can bring Philip Rivers in for a couple of weeks,

605
00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:21,879
Speaker 1: two months, Max, let's take it all the way to

606
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:25,399
Speaker 1: the very end for the complete Disney story. It is

607
00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:27,199
Speaker 1: a lottery ticket. It doesn't work out, then you just

608
00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:29,640
Speaker 1: stop playing him after the first half, right.

609
00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:33,720
Speaker 4: First half, first half benching Philip rivers for uncle Phil. Nah, nah,

610
00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:35,720
Speaker 4: you can't come back for a half. You gotta put

611
00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:37,800
Speaker 4: a whole thing out Riley Leonard. If they try to

612
00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:40,119
Speaker 4: put you in there after it goes terrible in the

613
00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:42,840
Speaker 4: first half, you tell him I'm not getting killed in Seattle.

614
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:46,880
Speaker 4: You get me ready for Monday night football. But jokes aside, Jeff.

615
00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:48,280
Speaker 1: How long is it? How big is the hook? Though?

616
00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:51,359
Speaker 4: That is a question, that's a very big question. A

617
00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:54,040
Speaker 4: lot of it I just don't know yet because of

618
00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:57,159
Speaker 4: the physical nature of the game. And he let that

619
00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:59,879
Speaker 4: out perfectly yesterday and eloquently and repeatedly.

620
00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:04,160
Speaker 2: I know I haven't played football. I know I can still.

621
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:06,760
Speaker 4: Sling it, I can still throw it, but I haven't

622
00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:09,520
Speaker 4: played and I don't know until I get out there.

623
00:28:09,560 --> 00:28:12,000
Speaker 4: So part of it, to me is admirable to just

624
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:14,159
Speaker 4: try to go out there and see if you can

625
00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:17,119
Speaker 4: still do the thing that you once did. But at

626
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:21,439
Speaker 4: the same time, I don't think it'll be enough juice

627
00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:25,880
Speaker 4: to offset you know, five years of not playing the game.

628
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:29,000
Speaker 4: So one of the funnier comments from the press conference

629
00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:33,399
Speaker 4: yesterday besides me asking if Rivers is he is older

630
00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:35,600
Speaker 4: than shane'sych and He's like, yeah, he's been older than

631
00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:38,280
Speaker 4: me in my entire life, James, You're dumb. So other

632
00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:40,960
Speaker 4: than that, I thought one of the funnier moments when

633
00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:42,360
Speaker 4: Kevin asked him.

634
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:44,440
Speaker 2: Kevin asked, Shane.

635
00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:48,480
Speaker 4: I need to read the transcript because this this is hilarious.

636
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:54,880
Speaker 3: We should have mark pulled this Mark if you can.

637
00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:56,440
Speaker 2: Maybe save for the eight o'clock hour of Marcus.

638
00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:57,480
Speaker 3: I know you got a lot to deal with in

639
00:28:57,520 --> 00:28:59,719
Speaker 3: this new studio today, but I just read it aloud.

640
00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:01,320
Speaker 2: This is hilarious.

641
00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:02,440
Speaker 1: Transcript might be funny.

642
00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:06,280
Speaker 2: So we're all peppering same with questions and.

643
00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:08,280
Speaker 1: Questions.

644
00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:11,280
Speaker 4: Yes, Kevin jumpsaying, is there any part of you that

645
00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:14,040
Speaker 4: says we've lost four or five we need juice? He

646
00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:17,240
Speaker 4: is juice and they have it written out he is

647
00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:20,000
Speaker 4: juice And I could not stop laughing at that.

648
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:23,160
Speaker 2: And the response was he he does give us juice.

649
00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:25,720
Speaker 2: So there you have it. Juice sub cults.

650
00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:28,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's real, Like I think that is

651
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 3: a big part in this feeling in the locker room

652
00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:35,640
Speaker 3: whip Rivers was. I don't know, I'm trying to think

653
00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:38,719
Speaker 3: of like a semi accomplished like all jokes aside if

654
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,840
Speaker 3: he was Matt Ryan, Like okay, let's act like Matt

655
00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:43,840
Speaker 3: Ryan didn't put on a cold uniform. Let's act like

656
00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:47,280
Speaker 3: Matt Ryan retired as a Falcon when he when Rivers

657
00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:50,400
Speaker 3: did five years ago. We don't talk about Matt Ryan

658
00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:52,760
Speaker 3: in the manner we talk about Philip Rivers, right, Philip

659
00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:57,960
Speaker 3: Rivers has always been this trash talking, no cussing, unique individual,

660
00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:03,320
Speaker 3: high energy football Like Matt Ryan is his own you know, personality,

661
00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:07,480
Speaker 3: but he's not Philip Rivers. And I think, guys, and again,

662
00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:09,560
Speaker 3: just listen to Jack Gold describe him when he joined

663
00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:13,480
Speaker 3: us yesterday. When guys are teammates are around Philip Rivers,

664
00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:18,719
Speaker 3: there's just like this unique gravitational pull that he has. Now,

665
00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:22,000
Speaker 3: as I've said all morning long, you know how much

666
00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:23,880
Speaker 3: can that last once the ball is kicked off at

667
00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:27,880
Speaker 3: four twenty five. But for the time being, he does

668
00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:31,400
Speaker 3: insert some injection of life into your building.

669
00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:33,480
Speaker 2: But I'll be totally honest with you.

670
00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:36,320
Speaker 3: Guys, and I don't know if this is politically correct

671
00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:39,040
Speaker 3: for me to say it or not. When Phil Rivers

672
00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:43,800
Speaker 3: walked in that room yesterday, I thought he was Tim

673
00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:45,840
Speaker 3: Allen to save Christmas.

674
00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:50,520
Speaker 1: I love that. Tell us more?

675
00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:53,360
Speaker 2: Am I not the only one.

676
00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:56,440
Speaker 1: Explain to folks Kevin that didn't get to see a.

677
00:30:56,480 --> 00:31:00,560
Speaker 2: Few weeks back? Hopefully Matti isn't less and she's probably

678
00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:02,920
Speaker 2: driving kids of school at this point. But uh, you know,

679
00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:03,440
Speaker 2: had a hell.

680
00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:05,240
Speaker 3: Of a drive through some snow to get back in

681
00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:07,360
Speaker 3: time for the Colts game from Thanksgiving. You know it

682
00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:10,520
Speaker 3: was that brutal Saturday snow and you know I got

683
00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:13,959
Speaker 3: back to Indian thoughts to myself, I deserve a full pizza.

684
00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:18,080
Speaker 3: I deserve some Donato's pizza, And sure enough I decided

685
00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:20,680
Speaker 3: to eat a full medium Denado's pizza. I might have

686
00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:24,720
Speaker 3: had a couple of breadsticks, and boy, James, boyd, I

687
00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:27,720
Speaker 3: couldn't get off that couch for three hours, and I

688
00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:28,640
Speaker 3: thought to myself, you.

689
00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:30,320
Speaker 4: Can't be eating like your boy. Well I can't say

690
00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:31,840
Speaker 4: that any more. I'm a thirty year old man and

691
00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:32,760
Speaker 4: my diet.

692
00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:34,960
Speaker 3: Listening to Philip Rivers answered the question about how much

693
00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:37,520
Speaker 3: he currently weighs, it got me thinking back to the

694
00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:39,200
Speaker 3: Donatal's pizza I had a few weeks back.

695
00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:44,160
Speaker 1: Wow. So here's my question about the Didn't.

696
00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:45,560
Speaker 2: No one else think that? Did no one else think

697
00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:47,080
Speaker 2: that Philip Rivers looked out of shape and.

698
00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:49,479
Speaker 1: He was in the best shape he's ever been in?

699
00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:54,239
Speaker 3: Right, No, he didn't say that, but somebody said that

700
00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:55,480
Speaker 3: Philip was very honest.

701
00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:58,080
Speaker 2: Philip was like, yeah, which I.

702
00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:00,800
Speaker 3: Weigh a few pounds more than I did Buffalo, And

703
00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:02,960
Speaker 3: he countered with one of the great comments, and Mark,

704
00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:04,200
Speaker 3: you actually had that clip.

705
00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:07,240
Speaker 2: This is Philip Rivers yesterday on his weight, not.

706
00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:09,200
Speaker 8: What it was when I walked off the film Buffalo.

707
00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:10,840
Speaker 1: I can tell you that.

708
00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:13,520
Speaker 9: But but then I'll follow that up with I ain't

709
00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:19,200
Speaker 9: never ran away from anybody anyway. So so I'm they

710
00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:20,720
Speaker 9: you know, people say, well, they're gonna know you're gonna

711
00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:22,160
Speaker 9: be right there, and it's like, well, they do that

712
00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:23,600
Speaker 9: for sixteen seventeen years.

713
00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:27,720
Speaker 2: So now he's not wrong about any of that. But

714
00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:29,600
Speaker 2: at the same time, I do say.

715
00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:32,880
Speaker 3: This in all seriousness, like where is he at from

716
00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:36,160
Speaker 3: a cardio standpoint? I'm not saying Philip Rivers is tucking

717
00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:40,040
Speaker 3: and running it RPO style, but like the stamina on

718
00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:41,240
Speaker 3: the eighth play of a drive.

719
00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:44,720
Speaker 2: I brought it up earlier. What about a two minute.

720
00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:47,200
Speaker 3: Situation at the end of the first half. I mean,

721
00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:49,920
Speaker 3: this is a dude that if we're playing the guests

722
00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:52,160
Speaker 3: in the weight game, you're grouping him in with tight

723
00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:55,040
Speaker 3: ends pretty quickly in terms of how much he's weighing

724
00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:58,280
Speaker 3: right now, if not some defensive ends on this football team.

725
00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:01,000
Speaker 3: So I asked, and I don't know, maybe.

726
00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:02,360
Speaker 2: It's unfair of me to say that, but I mean,

727
00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:05,480
Speaker 2: we're talking about NFL football players here. That is a

728
00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:07,360
Speaker 2: legitimate question I have for Sunday.

729
00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:11,000
Speaker 1: I get some of the text and the talkback JT. Sorry,

730
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:13,240
Speaker 1: we'll get you if you want to call back there.

731
00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:15,800
Speaker 1: We're going on some stuff in there. But justin Techan says,

732
00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:18,840
Speaker 1: it's not shocking that this franchise continuously lets Ballard use

733
00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:22,040
Speaker 1: it as his own personal circus. Shane can have all

734
00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:24,440
Speaker 1: the confidence, but he's been in he hasn't been right

735
00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:27,560
Speaker 1: in one decision he's ever made with the franchise. That

736
00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:29,320
Speaker 1: might be a little bit harsh there, but there are

737
00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:33,400
Speaker 1: a lot of people that are justifiably so down on

738
00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:35,200
Speaker 1: christ And yet every time I hear people in the

739
00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:38,800
Speaker 1: national media talking about the Colts they say, other than

740
00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:41,280
Speaker 1: the quarterback, he's put together a pretty good team. Now

741
00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:43,800
Speaker 1: we can all parse that out, and I think all

742
00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:45,600
Speaker 1: three of us in here kind of shrug our shoulders

743
00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:49,000
Speaker 1: at that one. But it's but that's the NFL. You

744
00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:51,840
Speaker 1: got to find a quarterback. You're not gonna win in

745
00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:52,280
Speaker 1: this league.

746
00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:56,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, I guess the argument is you've had the rookie

747
00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:59,200
Speaker 4: who was just in a National championship game last year,

748
00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:02,920
Speaker 4: and it's a lot different playing the pros. He's been

749
00:34:02,960 --> 00:34:06,680
Speaker 4: a part of your program for a year now and

750
00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:09,480
Speaker 4: he's been there every day. You know, or you should

751
00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:12,000
Speaker 4: know what he's capable of, and maybe that's why you

752
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:15,400
Speaker 4: do go out and get Philip Rivers. So to me,

753
00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:18,800
Speaker 4: it comes down to not the head and next stuff.

754
00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:23,279
Speaker 4: The dude knows the game, but just physically it's borderline

755
00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:26,400
Speaker 4: and it probably is unprecedented. I know people have referenced

756
00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:30,120
Speaker 4: oh other teams that brought guys that are retirement and

757
00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:33,600
Speaker 4: even a few of them with this time difference, But

758
00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:35,120
Speaker 4: I would like to go back and see how many

759
00:34:35,120 --> 00:34:39,600
Speaker 4: of them have been plugged into this situation where you're

760
00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:43,080
Speaker 4: eight and five and you still have a chance to

761
00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:46,840
Speaker 4: get into the dance and you're relying on a forty

762
00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:49,879
Speaker 4: four year old to do it, So that to me is.

763
00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:55,920
Speaker 2: It is quite the endeavor to put it mildly and.

764
00:34:55,880 --> 00:34:57,840
Speaker 1: Look at the end of the day too. This is

765
00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:00,480
Speaker 1: going back to something Kevin said during check down a

766
00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:02,640
Speaker 1: minute ago. There's a lot of questions, a lot of

767
00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:05,799
Speaker 1: issues on defense right now, especially with some of the injuries. Well,

768
00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:07,759
Speaker 1: we're all going to focus on this quarterback thing all

769
00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:09,879
Speaker 1: week long, and I get it, but there's still there's

770
00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:11,600
Speaker 1: a reason that they'd lost four out of five and

771
00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:13,680
Speaker 1: wasn't all just offensive court.

772
00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:14,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's a great point.

773
00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:16,600
Speaker 3: And you know, you look at the run game too,

774
00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:19,400
Speaker 3: I mean, and losing four or five basically Jonathan Taylor's

775
00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:22,480
Speaker 3: ineffectiveness in those four losses has been a constant.

776
00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:24,640
Speaker 2: And then of course the defensive effort.

777
00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:27,080
Speaker 3: You saw and now you know, maybe to Forest Buckner's

778
00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:29,839
Speaker 3: back on Sunday, but you're defending I would say, one

779
00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:32,759
Speaker 3: of the better whiteouts period in the NFL, and I

780
00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:35,600
Speaker 3: think one of the better wide receiver trios with the

781
00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:38,840
Speaker 3: trade for Rashid Shaheed in Seattle, and you're doing it

782
00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:41,239
Speaker 3: without an all likelihood Sauce Gardner. And then of course

783
00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:44,239
Speaker 3: Mooney Ward now on injured reserve, and we should mention

784
00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:46,839
Speaker 3: as far as Philip Rivers and pass protection all that.

785
00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:49,920
Speaker 2: You know, you're looking at the rare offensive line change.

786
00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:52,680
Speaker 3: In all likelihood as a rookie in Braiden or in

787
00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:57,640
Speaker 3: Jalen Travis for Braden Smith potentially coming up on Sunday here,

788
00:35:57,680 --> 00:35:59,200
Speaker 3: So that is another element.

789
00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:02,640
Speaker 2: But boy, I just I keep on coming back to

790
00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:05,359
Speaker 2: Riley Leonard. James and Ryle.

791
00:36:05,440 --> 00:36:09,239
Speaker 3: Leonard said all the right things yesterday, but boy, his

792
00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:14,879
Speaker 3: tone it just felt like, Damn, I can't believe they

793
00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:21,680
Speaker 3: brought in Philip Rivers to take my spot. And when

794
00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:24,839
Speaker 3: I say take my spot, I don't want to act like.

795
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:29,640
Speaker 3: You know, Riley Lennard has earned this like unquestionable. You know,

796
00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:30,839
Speaker 3: no one can doubt him.

797
00:36:30,719 --> 00:36:31,320
Speaker 2: As a player.

798
00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:35,400
Speaker 3: But given how he played on Sunday, given him practicing

799
00:36:35,600 --> 00:36:40,200
Speaker 3: full yesterday, I just would have figured he would start

800
00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:42,759
Speaker 3: again on Sunday. And then if you would have told

801
00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:44,680
Speaker 3: me the alternative option was a dude that hasn't played

802
00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:46,120
Speaker 3: football in five years.

803
00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:51,360
Speaker 2: If I'm Riley Leonard, I'm like, damn, that's.

804
00:36:51,160 --> 00:36:54,920
Speaker 3: How they think about me, because that's a word of

805
00:36:54,960 --> 00:36:56,840
Speaker 3: bating right now, who is the better option for Sunday

806
00:36:56,840 --> 00:37:01,600
Speaker 3: in Seattle. Riley Leonard, who appears to be a lot

807
00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:04,600
Speaker 3: closer to full health than was made out to believe

808
00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:05,719
Speaker 3: earlier in the week.

809
00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:08,640
Speaker 4: Or forty four year old Philip Rivers right, or my

810
00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:12,000
Speaker 4: or your ex. You brought back the old chick. She

811
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:15,719
Speaker 4: ain't supposed to be here. I'm supposed to be able

812
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:19,040
Speaker 4: to enjoy my new relationship and you bringing her back.

813
00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:23,239
Speaker 4: So I do think chux aside he has every right

814
00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:26,400
Speaker 4: to feel that way, and honestly, if he didn't feel slighted,

815
00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:29,719
Speaker 4: I would question his competitive nature because you got to

816
00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:32,800
Speaker 4: be thinking, I'm twenty three, even with my knees a

817
00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:34,480
Speaker 4: and one hundred percent, I can still give you a

818
00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:37,960
Speaker 4: better chance than the guy who, granted has been around

819
00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:40,439
Speaker 4: the game, hasn't played the game. So I get that,

820
00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:43,560
Speaker 4: and I think that he more or less and perhaps

821
00:37:43,560 --> 00:37:46,960
Speaker 4: will plays audio throughout the show today or even tomorrow

822
00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:49,680
Speaker 4: as we get closer to the game. But one of

823
00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:52,120
Speaker 4: the closes that set out to me Kevin and I

824
00:37:52,120 --> 00:37:54,160
Speaker 4: actually use it for a story because I was like, oh,

825
00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:56,160
Speaker 4: this is him saying it, playing and clean for all

826
00:37:56,160 --> 00:38:01,040
Speaker 4: of us to really read it and digest it. He said,

827
00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:05,680
Speaker 4: it's as crazy to me as it is to anybody.

828
00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:06,640
Speaker 4: But yeah, it's cool.

829
00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:12,960
Speaker 2: Those were his words. Yeah, his first word he said

830
00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:18,319
Speaker 2: yesterday and a scrum was it's weird, yes, and I'm not.

831
00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:21,359
Speaker 3: This is awesome, right, this is And again for those

832
00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:24,000
Speaker 3: on from precedented, him and Philip Rivers are very close.

833
00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:26,640
Speaker 2: Yes, I mean they lived near each other. Philip Rivers

834
00:38:26,680 --> 00:38:28,520
Speaker 2: helped train him in the off season to get ready

835
00:38:28,560 --> 00:38:31,120
Speaker 2: for the draft. So I did see that text change

836
00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:31,759
Speaker 2: between those two.

837
00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:36,240
Speaker 3: I appreciated Riley for that candor because it is odd.

838
00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:40,040
Speaker 3: Like again, I thought yesterday Philip Rivers was going to

839
00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:42,919
Speaker 3: start on Sunday, but I figured Riley Leonard was really

840
00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:45,560
Speaker 3: hurt to the point where either he wouldn't practice or

841
00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:47,960
Speaker 3: was really limited. And Riley is like, yeah, I should

842
00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:49,959
Speaker 3: have no limitations of practice today. And he was full,

843
00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:51,439
Speaker 3: full on the injury report.

844
00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:53,880
Speaker 2: If you're full on a Wednesday injury report, you play

845
00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:56,840
Speaker 2: literally ninety nine point nine times out of one hundred

846
00:38:57,080 --> 00:38:58,000
Speaker 2: in an NFL game.

847
00:38:58,440 --> 00:39:00,720
Speaker 1: We saw a little bit of video Philip Rivers throwing yesterday.

848
00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:01,839
Speaker 1: What did you guys see there?

849
00:39:03,120 --> 00:39:03,919
Speaker 2: I think it looked fine.

850
00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:06,160
Speaker 4: You know what's crazy to me? I maybe I'm just

851
00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:11,200
Speaker 4: not well versed in arm speed and talent. But the

852
00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:13,640
Speaker 4: people who when we post the clips, Kevin, I'm sure

853
00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:16,520
Speaker 4: you've gone through the same sort of thing in your

854
00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:19,839
Speaker 4: mentions and emails and stuff like that.

855
00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:22,560
Speaker 2: Who gloss over or not gloss over?

856
00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:25,520
Speaker 4: But like live and die with every little thing in

857
00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:27,560
Speaker 4: these videos, I just don't know what we're really looking at.

858
00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:30,520
Speaker 4: I'm like, Okay, did he have enough zip? Maybe did

859
00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:32,560
Speaker 4: he not? I don't know, did he miss this guy

860
00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:34,360
Speaker 4: he's late? Like, I'm not looking at it through the

861
00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:37,919
Speaker 4: lens of Shane Stikeen or Chris Ballard. And I kind

862
00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:40,680
Speaker 4: of think of, Okay, if they worked him out Monday.

863
00:39:40,920 --> 00:39:43,520
Speaker 2: With some practice receivers and I leave.

864
00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:45,920
Speaker 4: Josh down Is actually on his podcast that a few

865
00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:48,719
Speaker 4: of the receivers that he looked fine. Then who am

866
00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:50,600
Speaker 4: I to really looking at, you know, fifteen minutes of

867
00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:51,960
Speaker 4: practice and say whether he has it or not.

868
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:53,959
Speaker 2: I got to see Sunday. Yeah, I think coleman Owen

869
00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:55,799
Speaker 2: on the practice squad, and I believe Eli Pancole the

870
00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:58,200
Speaker 2: Penalton Heightsky was a part of who he threw to

871
00:39:58,280 --> 00:40:02,719
Speaker 2: on Monday, who's currently on the Colts practice squad I've

872
00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:05,439
Speaker 2: never thought like Rivers has been this like big time

873
00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:07,959
Speaker 2: velocity dude, Like you know, you know.

874
00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:11,640
Speaker 1: One was the guy that always got credit for throwing

875
00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:12,080
Speaker 1: guys open.

876
00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:15,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was gonna say he throws with anticipation, and

877
00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:17,000
Speaker 3: you know, I think that's the point, the point he

878
00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:22,560
Speaker 3: has the pinpoint nature to him. But the general velocity

879
00:40:22,719 --> 00:40:29,040
Speaker 3: question slash continuing to throw at anticipation that is probably

880
00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:31,440
Speaker 3: right up there with just general movement as my biggest

881
00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:36,880
Speaker 3: question for for Sunday, because you know, these Seattle Seahawks defenders,

882
00:40:38,680 --> 00:40:40,320
Speaker 3: we have yet to see him throw with a defender

883
00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:42,320
Speaker 3: out there. I mean, all the throws we saw yesterday

884
00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:45,200
Speaker 3: were stationary. You know, Yes, he's throwing to Pittman and

885
00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:47,000
Speaker 3: Downs and all those guys, but it's not like they're

886
00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:49,759
Speaker 3: being guarded in front of us when we're out there.

887
00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:52,840
Speaker 3: So that would be the question that you have of Okay,

888
00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:55,120
Speaker 3: windows are going to look a whole lot different in

889
00:40:55,840 --> 00:40:58,480
Speaker 3: forty eight degree weather and spitting rain or whatever Seattle

890
00:40:58,560 --> 00:41:00,480
Speaker 3: is going to be come Sunday four o'clock.

891
00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:03,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, and again I go back to what's the speed

892
00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:04,440
Speaker 1: of the game going to be like for him? Yes,

893
00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:06,799
Speaker 1: he played in the NFL for seventeen years. He understands

894
00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:09,040
Speaker 1: NFL speed. It's one thing to have lived it. But

895
00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:12,600
Speaker 1: it's five years later now, and oh yeah, those guys

896
00:41:12,680 --> 00:41:14,640
Speaker 1: are that quick. And that pass that I used to

897
00:41:14,640 --> 00:41:17,960
Speaker 1: throw in that spot, oh yeah, that I forgot. How

898
00:41:18,040 --> 00:41:20,560
Speaker 1: quick that guy can close on that right? I don't know,

899
00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:22,240
Speaker 1: is it all still there? Is it all still muscle

900
00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:24,920
Speaker 1: memory or does your body have a ramping up period

901
00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:26,400
Speaker 1: just to catch up with the speed again.

902
00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:28,719
Speaker 4: I was listening to a lot of people weigh in

903
00:41:28,760 --> 00:41:31,520
Speaker 4: on this yesterday, one of them being Kurt Warner, who

904
00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:35,799
Speaker 4: joined our shower at the Athletic Scoop City. He was

905
00:41:35,840 --> 00:41:39,759
Speaker 4: saying that when he still trains a bunch of high

906
00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:42,000
Speaker 4: school athletes, I believe he actually does high school coaching

907
00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:44,279
Speaker 4: as well. And he mentioned that a few years ago,

908
00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:47,600
Speaker 4: maybe back in twenty twenty, or maybe I'm misremembering like

909
00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:52,160
Speaker 4: the actual timeline, but years ago, the Cardinals quarterback room

910
00:41:52,200 --> 00:41:54,279
Speaker 4: kind of got decimated and he was thinking, is there

911
00:41:54,280 --> 00:41:55,720
Speaker 4: a chance for me to come back and play?

912
00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:57,160
Speaker 2: I can go out here and get ready.

913
00:41:57,400 --> 00:42:00,359
Speaker 4: But he was like, YA can still outthrow all these

914
00:42:00,400 --> 00:42:02,720
Speaker 4: people when it comes to just drills. I can still

915
00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:05,319
Speaker 4: do that at a very high level. That's like riding

916
00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:07,280
Speaker 4: a blake. But he was like, your your mental clock,

917
00:42:07,680 --> 00:42:09,839
Speaker 4: your presence of the pocket, things of that nature, you

918
00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:12,160
Speaker 4: just can't quantify until you get out there. And that

919
00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:14,040
Speaker 4: is the risk that Philipps is taking.

920
00:42:14,120 --> 00:42:14,279
Speaker 6: Well.

921
00:42:14,320 --> 00:42:18,400
Speaker 2: In the moment of play breaks down on Sunday year.

922
00:42:18,320 --> 00:42:21,799
Speaker 1: Aft, does he go to Peyton Manninggan just drop right?

923
00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:24,080
Speaker 2: Oh, yes, absolutely absolutely he has to.

924
00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:26,200
Speaker 3: Now you can look at that one of two ways. Okay,

925
00:42:26,280 --> 00:42:28,439
Speaker 3: he'll stay out of bad place, he'll just go down

926
00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:31,399
Speaker 3: drives will end in punts. Or also you can look

927
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:33,040
Speaker 3: at it and say, well, that means the Colts have

928
00:42:33,080 --> 00:42:37,640
Speaker 3: to be absolutely perfect in everything else pre snap. As

929
00:42:37,640 --> 00:42:39,520
Speaker 3: soon as the play is snapped, like and what have

930
00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:43,000
Speaker 3: you go back to? Well, the run game is definitely

931
00:42:43,040 --> 00:42:44,560
Speaker 3: struggled here as a wait, but if you look at

932
00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:47,640
Speaker 3: Riley Leonard on Sunday, that first third down he converts,

933
00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:50,239
Speaker 3: that is Riley Leonard making a play. It's him get

934
00:42:50,320 --> 00:42:52,800
Speaker 3: out of the pocket, it's him extending, it's him finding

935
00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:53,400
Speaker 3: out at Pierce.

936
00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:55,880
Speaker 2: Now again, maybe Rivers will say, hey.

937
00:42:55,719 --> 00:42:58,120
Speaker 3: Pre snap, I know Seattle's playing this cloud coverage, and

938
00:42:58,160 --> 00:43:01,120
Speaker 3: I know that means boom and steps and that ball's

939
00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:02,520
Speaker 3: got to come out and it's got to go to

940
00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:03,080
Speaker 3: Tyler Warren.

941
00:43:03,280 --> 00:43:04,720
Speaker 2: That's the other thing I thought of yesterday.

942
00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:06,600
Speaker 3: I thought, boy, Tyler Warren's got to love this, and

943
00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:09,719
Speaker 3: Alec Pearce has got to think, damn, there goes my

944
00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:10,800
Speaker 3: chance of getting deep balls.

945
00:43:12,840 --> 00:43:15,960
Speaker 1: I also wonder about the deep balls. That's the big question. Yeah,

946
00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:19,040
Speaker 1: but you bring that last name up. One of the

947
00:43:19,040 --> 00:43:20,919
Speaker 1: other things I would think would be attracted to Shane

948
00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:24,080
Speaker 1: in this particular offense and all the communication he's had

949
00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:27,040
Speaker 1: with Philip Rivers. Philip Rivers demonstrated he knows what to

950
00:43:27,080 --> 00:43:28,719
Speaker 1: do with a really good tight end in the course

951
00:43:28,760 --> 00:43:29,760
Speaker 1: of his career, didn't.

952
00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:32,040
Speaker 4: He Yeah, Tyler Warren was saying, Hey, he's one of

953
00:43:32,080 --> 00:43:33,719
Speaker 4: the best of the best. Excited to play with him.

954
00:43:33,719 --> 00:43:36,440
Speaker 4: Well excited as Tyler Warren ever appears to be. I

955
00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:38,200
Speaker 4: don't think he gets excited about anything. I want to

956
00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:39,719
Speaker 4: see him win in the Super Bowl, just so I

957
00:43:39,800 --> 00:43:41,120
Speaker 4: see if his pulse raises at all.

958
00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:43,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, because I mean, for all those years, Kevin Antellio

959
00:43:43,600 --> 00:43:47,040
Speaker 1: Gates was Philip Rivers' biggest weapon, the excuse to feel

960
00:43:47,320 --> 00:43:49,640
Speaker 1: at time. So a lot going on and the Colts

961
00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:54,160
Speaker 1: will get their first look at life without Daniel Jones

962
00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:56,320
Speaker 1: for a full game, and whether that is going to

963
00:43:56,360 --> 00:44:00,760
Speaker 1: be Philip Rivers starting at quarterback or is it Riley Leonard.

964
00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:02,960
Speaker 1: We'll find out. We got a lot of other input

965
00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:04,960
Speaker 1: to get to as well. Dad Moda coming your way,

966
00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:07,040
Speaker 1: the head coach with the Butler Bulldogs. At eight thirty,

967

Speaker 4: can really break it down now, y'all hold this new studio,

974
00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:25,839
Speaker 4: y'all ain't ready.

975
00:44:25,880 --> 00:44:27,439
Speaker 1: I know the studio would have been good for COVID

976
00:44:27,480 --> 00:44:29,040
Speaker 1: because we're that far apart from one another.

977
00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:31,560
Speaker 2: That is, let's not bring back those times.

978
00:44:31,600 --> 00:44:33,840
Speaker 1: Hey, Philip Rivers was saying for the first time yesterday,

979
00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:35,440
Speaker 1: it was nice to see you guys in person.

980
00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:36,640
Speaker 2: Right, good segue there.

981
00:44:37,360 --> 00:44:40,600
Speaker 3: Althos with It's the most sports media thing James ever done.

Speaker 3: Dancing and Bruce Springsteen.

983
00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:45,839

Speaker 2: do you think that comes on Spotify randomly in is

985
00:44:48,520 --> 00:44:49,200
Speaker 2: in his apartment.

986
00:44:49,239 --> 00:44:50,280
Speaker 1: He just starts grooving.

987
00:44:50,360 --> 00:44:52,520
Speaker 2: Look, I told you just before. I guess Mike Chappell

988
00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:53,040
Speaker 2: up and damn.

989
00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:57,760
Speaker 4: I think there are certain songs no matter what age, demographic, race, whatever,

990
00:44:58,640 --> 00:45:00,200
Speaker 4: you got a groove to it, that's one of them.

991
00:45:00,440 --> 00:45:02,480
Speaker 1: Well, that's always good stuff. We're in the brand new

992
00:45:02,480 --> 00:45:05,040

Speaker 1: State game, and also big win for Notre Dame Kevin.

995
00:45:10,640 --> 00:45:11,879
Speaker 1: I don't want to leave I don't want to leave

996
00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:14,680
Speaker 1: the Irish out winning at home. What eighty sixty five

997
00:45:14,719 --> 00:45:16,720
Speaker 1: I think it was. You can leave them out Idaho,

998
00:45:16,920 --> 00:45:17,480
Speaker 1: the vandals.

999
00:45:17,480 --> 00:45:19,439
Speaker 2: That's the cover of the spread right there.

1000
00:45:19,640 --> 00:45:22,440
Speaker 3: James Adam, do you think the first call was Sam

1001
00:45:22,440 --> 00:45:24,040
Speaker 3: Ellinger or Philip Rivers?

1002
00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:26,840
Speaker 2: Well, that's a good question.

1003
00:45:27,800 --> 00:45:29,320
Speaker 4: I need to ask that question to some other people

1004
00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:33,319
Speaker 4: behind the scenes, but I think the first call had

1005
00:45:33,360 --> 00:45:37,200
Speaker 4: to be Sam because to me, that just makes it.

1006
00:45:37,200 --> 00:45:38,760
Speaker 4: It's just I don't know.

1007
00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:39,879
Speaker 2: I don't know, man.

1008
00:45:40,800 --> 00:45:43,800
Speaker 3: Maybe reporting from Parker Gabriel of the Denver Posts mentioned

1009
00:45:43,840 --> 00:45:48,320
Speaker 3: that they were planning to bring Sam Ellinger in along

1010
00:45:48,719 --> 00:45:49,640
Speaker 3: with Philip rid Rice.

1011
00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:52,439
Speaker 2: But again, who would have been the first who would

1012
00:45:52,440 --> 00:45:56,959
Speaker 2: have been the star like this? It should have been sam.

1013
00:45:57,040 --> 00:45:59,279
Speaker 3: My thought is this And I know I said it

1014
00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:02,200
Speaker 3: yesterday and I say it again today. Philip Rivers ain't

1015
00:46:02,239 --> 00:46:04,200
Speaker 3: leaving a family of ten and getting on a plane

1016
00:46:04,239 --> 00:46:07,000
Speaker 3: to hold the Microsoft service on Sunday.

1017
00:46:07,160 --> 00:46:09,560
Speaker 1: I just maybe it's his entry ramp into coaching in

1018
00:46:09,560 --> 00:46:10,080
Speaker 1: the NFL.

1019
00:46:10,120 --> 00:46:11,520
Speaker 2: I know everybody needs a smoke breaker.

1020
00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:14,840
Speaker 3: I know everybody needs a smoke breaker on holiday season,

1021
00:46:14,880 --> 00:46:17,040
Speaker 3: but that's not the vibe I got all by the way,

1022
00:46:17,040 --> 00:46:20,759
Speaker 3: Anthony Richardson at practice yesterday doing his which we've seen

1023
00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:23,279
Speaker 3: Anthony do before, but we haven't seen him do it

1024
00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:25,359
Speaker 3: at least unless I've missed it in the last couple

1025
00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:25,800
Speaker 3: of months.

1026
00:46:25,880 --> 00:46:28,360
Speaker 2: You know, he's mimicking kind of quarterback dropbacks. Looked like

1027
00:46:28,360 --> 00:46:30,439
Speaker 2: he was wearing like some my boy was out there

1028
00:46:30,440 --> 00:46:31,160
Speaker 2: like Horace Grint.

1029
00:46:31,280 --> 00:46:36,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I was gonna say, you know, Jalen

1030
00:46:36,400 --> 00:46:37,840
Speaker 3: Smith vibes a little bit.

1031
00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:41,560
Speaker 2: There's his sticks pasterer wise, So he looked at me

1032
00:46:41,560 --> 00:46:42,200
Speaker 2: in good spirits.

1033
00:46:42,239 --> 00:46:44,800
Speaker 3: And you know, again I don't expect to return emminently

1034
00:46:44,840 --> 00:46:48,200
Speaker 3: by any means, but still we'll note that on the

1035
00:46:48,200 --> 00:46:50,080
Speaker 3: Anthony Richardson front.

Speaker 1: and is this just the the ultimate white flag. A

1039
00:46:57,120 --> 00:46:59,000
Speaker 1: lot of people are saying that they're embarrassed. A lot

1040
00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:02,000
Speaker 1: of people like, hey, lottery ticket. Why not? As you say,

1041
00:47:02,080 --> 00:47:04,120
Speaker 1: Kevin brings a little juice. We'll see if that translates

1042
00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:06,120
Speaker 1: to anything. Let's go to the phone lines though, two three,

Speaker 1: Do they have a nine hundred number for call a quarterback?

1054
00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:36,960
Speaker 1: That's the question. But it's every time you think, I mean,

1055
00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:39,440
Speaker 1: it's it's an oakless shake, Kevin, but it truly is

1056
00:47:39,600 --> 00:47:43,520
Speaker 1: every time you think you've seen everything, something else comes along.

1057
00:47:44,200 --> 00:47:47,440
Speaker 1: And I also have heard from all kinds of people

1058
00:47:47,440 --> 00:47:51,839
Speaker 1: on the national media. People, whatever happens James, people can't

1059
00:47:51,840 --> 00:47:54,759
Speaker 1: wait to see what's going to transpire on Sunday, whether

1060
00:47:54,800 --> 00:47:56,960
Speaker 1: he starts or doesn't start, or plays the whole game

1061
00:47:57,080 --> 00:48:00,440
Speaker 1: or gets hurt or whatever. People is going to be

1062
00:48:00,480 --> 00:48:01,439
Speaker 1: a big rating on that game.

1063
00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:02,400

Speaker 10: Hey, I'm sorry about that, gentleman.

1069
00:48:12,480 --> 00:48:14,800
Speaker 2: I had to dodge a four f one.

1070
00:48:14,680 --> 00:48:18,280
Speaker 10: Fifty out here on over sixty five people are sliding

1071
00:48:18,320 --> 00:48:20,080
Speaker 10: all over this thing on the north side here.

1072
00:48:20,120 --> 00:48:23,960
Speaker 2: Oh oh, sounds like a Lane Kiffin situation.

1073
00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:29,000
Speaker 1: All right, what's up the quarterback drive?

1074
00:48:29,160 --> 00:48:29,359
Speaker 11: Right?

1075
00:48:29,600 --> 00:48:30,120
Speaker 5: Yeah?

1076
00:48:30,120 --> 00:48:33,160
Speaker 10: You know I was, I was thinking about this. I mean,

1077
00:48:33,160 --> 00:48:36,120
Speaker 10: we've got a couple of options that we we could

1078
00:48:36,120 --> 00:48:37,800
Speaker 10: have had here. I don't know if you've heard the

1079
00:48:37,840 --> 00:48:42,000
Speaker 10: hot take that Cam Newton was willing to drop everything

1080
00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:45,000
Speaker 10: that he's doing and come play for us. That's out there.

1081
00:48:46,040 --> 00:48:50,400
Speaker 10: You know, you're looking at bringing back Ellinger, and you know,

1082
00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:53,000
Speaker 10: we we decided to go with Phillips here, and I

1083
00:48:53,080 --> 00:48:54,759
Speaker 10: understand why we did it. I think one of the

1084
00:48:54,800 --> 00:48:57,560
Speaker 10: things that people aren't talking about too is, you know,

1085
00:48:58,520 --> 00:49:02,560
Speaker 10: if we if we do throw Riley Leonard out there

1086
00:49:02,920 --> 00:49:05,120
Speaker 10: and he ends up getting hurt, then what are we

1087
00:49:05,160 --> 00:49:05,680
Speaker 10: looking at.

1088
00:49:05,520 --> 00:49:06,880
Speaker 12: Tyler Warren as our quarterback?

1089
00:49:06,920 --> 00:49:07,120
Speaker 13: Now?

1090
00:49:07,160 --> 00:49:10,000
Speaker 10: I mean that was the plan, right, I mean, if

1091
00:49:10,000 --> 00:49:12,640
Speaker 10: something were to happen in that game and for whatever

1092
00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:15,520
Speaker 10: reason Leonard went down, I think Tyler Warren was slotted

1093
00:49:15,640 --> 00:49:19,400
Speaker 10: as our backup quarterback. You're damned that you do, and

1094
00:49:19,440 --> 00:49:26,120
Speaker 10: you're damned that you don't, I feel in this situation, So.

1095
00:49:24,840 --> 00:49:27,319
Speaker 2: Chris second for the call. Yeah, I mean the cults

1096
00:49:27,360 --> 00:49:29,839
Speaker 2: are desperate. I think you know.

1097
00:49:29,880 --> 00:49:32,319
Speaker 3: To me, that's where I disagree on the Jeff Saturday front.

1098
00:49:32,400 --> 00:49:34,279
Speaker 3: For those that want to compare the two, I mean

1099
00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:36,839
Speaker 3: the culture in a dire quarterback situation. We've read off

1100
00:49:36,840 --> 00:49:38,880
Speaker 3: some of the names on Monday, you know, when we

1101
00:49:38,960 --> 00:49:41,960
Speaker 3: thought Riley Leonard was legitimately hurt, which again does not

1102
00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:45,200
Speaker 3: appear to be a case. Basically, we're debating should the

1103
00:49:45,200 --> 00:49:51,400
Speaker 3: Colts start Philip Rivers or Brett Rippon. That was the debate,

1104
00:49:51,560 --> 00:49:53,400
Speaker 3: and the only reason people know who Brett Rippon is

1105
00:49:53,400 --> 00:49:54,600
Speaker 3: is because his last names are Ripping.

1106
00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:58,319
Speaker 2: There's Brett Boyd. They'd be like, wait, what hold on now,

1107
00:49:58,320 --> 00:50:01,319
Speaker 2: the boy Nay, I'm putting some respect on.

1108
00:50:01,280 --> 00:50:04,200
Speaker 3: His last name from Bill's all time leading passer back

1109
00:50:04,239 --> 00:50:05,080
Speaker 3: in the You know.

1110
00:50:05,320 --> 00:50:07,600
Speaker 2: Hey, I'm on I'm on the wall at my high school.

1111
00:50:07,719 --> 00:50:10,840
Speaker 2: I'm a celebrity two thousands there. So I think that

1112
00:50:11,040 --> 00:50:14,520
Speaker 2: is where you're getting. I agree with you, though.

1113
00:50:15,719 --> 00:50:17,279
Speaker 1: All right, let's go back to the phone lines. Aaron

1114
00:50:17,360 --> 00:50:19,080
Speaker 1: is up next in ninety three five one seven five

1115
00:50:19,120 --> 00:50:19,319
Speaker 1: the Fan.

1116
00:50:19,360 --> 00:50:21,759
Speaker 14: Good morning, Aaron, Hey, good morning brother.

1117
00:50:21,800 --> 00:50:23,600
Speaker 1: Are you going good man? What's happening?

1118
00:50:24,320 --> 00:50:24,640
Speaker 13: Hey?

1119
00:50:24,680 --> 00:50:26,040
Speaker 14: Man, I just want to weigh in on it.

1120
00:50:26,160 --> 00:50:26,319
Speaker 2: Man.

1121
00:50:26,520 --> 00:50:28,560
Speaker 14: First of all, I want to say you have been funny.

1122
00:50:28,560 --> 00:50:31,000
Speaker 14: It is to hear all the comments. I think this

1123
00:50:31,160 --> 00:50:35,240
Speaker 14: is just really kind of an emergency to say ballads

1124
00:50:35,280 --> 00:50:36,280
Speaker 14: and psyching stop.

1125
00:50:36,440 --> 00:50:36,640
Speaker 11: Man.

1126
00:50:36,719 --> 00:50:40,239
Speaker 14: But we have to say in that class man. He's

1127
00:50:40,320 --> 00:50:44,760
Speaker 14: one of the greatest football minds, Peyton Manning, Tom Brady,

1128
00:50:45,160 --> 00:50:47,879
Speaker 14: Drew Brees. So got to give it a shot, man.

1129
00:50:48,080 --> 00:50:49,239
Speaker 14: That's all I have to say about it.

1130
00:50:49,320 --> 00:50:49,480
Speaker 12: Man.

1131
00:50:49,920 --> 00:50:50,520
Speaker 1: I appreciate it.

1132
00:50:50,520 --> 00:50:50,560
Speaker 2: No.

1133
00:50:50,640 --> 00:50:52,040
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people the way too. And

1134
00:50:52,200 --> 00:50:53,759
Speaker 1: it's kind of what I said to you a minute ago, James,

1135
00:50:53,960 --> 00:50:54,920
Speaker 1: you got a lottery ticket.

1136
00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:55,239
Speaker 5: Right.

1137
00:50:55,320 --> 00:50:57,960
Speaker 1: If it works out, great, but if it does not,

1138
00:50:58,040 --> 00:51:00,560
Speaker 1: only think too many people are going to be that's

1139
00:51:00,600 --> 00:51:02,520
Speaker 1: the way that went right. But I mean, could it

1140
00:51:02,560 --> 00:51:04,279
Speaker 1: be any worse than what we've seen for the last

1141
00:51:04,280 --> 00:51:05,120
Speaker 1: five weeks?

1142
00:51:06,360 --> 00:51:08,799
Speaker 4: I always subscribe to the idea that he could get

1143
00:51:08,840 --> 00:51:10,160
Speaker 4: worse and.

1144
00:51:10,440 --> 00:51:12,080
Speaker 3: Well, and this is what the Riley Leonard think comes

1145
00:51:12,120 --> 00:51:16,360
Speaker 3: into play, Like, explain that would Riley Leonard offer you

1146
00:51:16,400 --> 00:51:18,520
Speaker 3: a better chance than forty four year old Philip Rivers?

1147
00:51:19,880 --> 00:51:22,239
Speaker 3: Because when we debated this Monday and Tuesday, guys, we

1148
00:51:22,320 --> 00:51:25,520
Speaker 3: didn't think Riley Leonard was healthy enough to play right.

1149
00:51:27,280 --> 00:51:27,520
Speaker 1: Now?

1150
00:51:27,560 --> 00:51:30,359
Speaker 2: He just participated fully in practice, he said, does yesterday, James,

1151
00:51:30,360 --> 00:51:33,480
Speaker 2: I'll have no limitations today practice right. So it's a

1152
00:51:33,480 --> 00:51:34,640
Speaker 2: good point. That gets it.

1153
00:51:34,680 --> 00:51:37,440
Speaker 3: And again maybe we're splitting hairs here, but if we

1154
00:51:37,480 --> 00:51:39,839
Speaker 3: want to hand out letter grades, and if you think

1155
00:51:39,840 --> 00:51:41,880
Speaker 3: Philip Rivers is going to look like a D plus

1156
00:51:41,880 --> 00:51:44,839
Speaker 3: on Sunday, and you think Philip, you think Ryley Leonard

1157
00:51:44,840 --> 00:51:45,960
Speaker 3: could look like a C plus?

1158
00:51:47,760 --> 00:51:50,360
Speaker 2: Could that be enough? Does the fact that Ryley Leonard

1159
00:51:50,400 --> 00:51:52,440
Speaker 2: has a threat to make a play with his legs.

1160
00:51:52,160 --> 00:51:56,200
Speaker 3: Say Hey, I'm Seattle Seahawks safety Kobe Bryant, and I've

1161
00:51:56,200 --> 00:51:59,120
Speaker 3: got to react to Riley Leonard, and all of a sudden,

1162
00:51:59,160 --> 00:52:02,160
Speaker 3: me being worried about Leonard allows Jonathan Taylor to crease one,

1163
00:52:02,560 --> 00:52:05,920
Speaker 3: whereas the Philip rivers, Jeff, you would catch him in

1164
00:52:05,960 --> 00:52:06,480
Speaker 3: the open field.

1165
00:52:06,480 --> 00:52:08,520
Speaker 1: I like I said the other day, I expect to

1166
00:52:08,520 --> 00:52:10,839
Speaker 1: see a lot of seven and eight man boxes all

1167
00:52:10,960 --> 00:52:14,879
Speaker 1: day and until he proves that he can beat you downfield,

1168
00:52:15,400 --> 00:52:17,680
Speaker 1: until he proves he can throw that fifteen or seventeen

1169
00:52:17,760 --> 00:52:21,000
Speaker 1: yard out, Good luck John and Taylor. I'm just gonna

1170
00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:22,040
Speaker 1: start sending guys to you.

1171
00:52:23,080 --> 00:52:24,799
Speaker 4: I thought it was interesting that Philip said I'm not

1172
00:52:24,800 --> 00:52:27,399
Speaker 4: here to be a savior, and I'm like, mmm, kind

1173
00:52:27,440 --> 00:52:30,279
Speaker 4: of yeah. I'm thinking, you know, you got a little

1174
00:52:30,320 --> 00:52:34,359
Speaker 4: Jesus in you. You know, you're very Christian and very

1175
00:52:36,080 --> 00:52:37,759
Speaker 4: excited to be back out there. So I don't think

1176
00:52:37,760 --> 00:52:39,399
Speaker 4: it's gonna be just a bunch of handoffs. So that'll

1177
00:52:39,440 --> 00:52:44,360
Speaker 4: be part of the game plan for sure. But you

1178
00:52:44,400 --> 00:52:45,840
Speaker 4: can't come back just to hand the ball off. You

1179
00:52:45,840 --> 00:52:48,160
Speaker 4: had to throw it too, So I'm very curious.

1180
00:52:48,280 --> 00:52:52,440
Speaker 2: The story is undoubtedly awesome.

1181
00:52:53,360 --> 00:52:57,520
Speaker 3: Oh yes, if you ignore the consequences, potentially the story

1182
00:52:57,760 --> 00:53:00,920
Speaker 3: is absurd. I mean, this man loves football more than

1183
00:53:00,920 --> 00:53:04,880
Speaker 3: I love Tiger Woods. And if you are Colleen Bowen

1184
00:53:04,960 --> 00:53:08,400
Speaker 3: my mother listening to Shane Steichen and Philip Rivers yesterday

1185
00:53:08,400 --> 00:53:12,399
Speaker 3: talk and emotional Philip Rivers on multiple times, you're caught

1186
00:53:12,480 --> 00:53:15,319
Speaker 3: up in that. Oh I was drinking the kool aid

1187
00:53:15,440 --> 00:53:18,560
Speaker 3: until about four to twenty five at Sunday you're thinking

1188
00:53:18,560 --> 00:53:20,640
Speaker 3: to yourself, Oh my gosh, this is one of the

1189
00:53:20,680 --> 00:53:25,800
Speaker 3: wildest sports stories ever. Could you imagine someone not playing

1190
00:53:25,880 --> 00:53:28,640
Speaker 3: NFL football for five years, let alone the father of

1191
00:53:28,680 --> 00:53:31,880
Speaker 3: a tent father of ten, let alone the grandfather twice

1192
00:53:31,920 --> 00:53:33,720
Speaker 3: the age of what half the people in the huddle

1193
00:53:33,719 --> 00:53:39,920
Speaker 3: on Sunday, Yeah, and him possibly playing adequate enough football

1194
00:53:40,600 --> 00:53:44,160
Speaker 3: for you to win a We need this December game

1195
00:53:44,160 --> 00:53:44,800
Speaker 3: more than anything.

1196
00:53:44,960 --> 00:53:47,440
Speaker 2: I mean, colt are still in the playoff race. So

1197
00:53:47,560 --> 00:53:51,719
Speaker 2: the story again, if you ignore the consequences of the

1198
00:53:51,800 --> 00:53:53,560
Speaker 2: other side of the story for a second, well that's

1199
00:53:53,560 --> 00:53:55,440
Speaker 2: all I do in my life. It's one of the

1200
00:53:55,520 --> 00:53:58,600
Speaker 2: wilder sports stories ever ever.

1201
00:53:58,840 --> 00:54:01,080
Speaker 3: Like, you know, how many times do you think people

1202
00:54:01,239 --> 00:54:03,279
Speaker 3: casually get into the debate of like, oh you think

1203
00:54:03,280 --> 00:54:06,160
Speaker 3: you think you could play, you think you.

1204
00:54:06,080 --> 00:54:08,839
Speaker 2: Can still do it? Like you hear that a lot,

1205
00:54:08,880 --> 00:54:11,080
Speaker 2: and you hear from ex athletes a lot, and who

1206
00:54:11,080 --> 00:54:14,120
Speaker 2: are the most illusional people? Ex athletes?

1207
00:54:14,200 --> 00:54:15,919
Speaker 1: I'm sorry because they always felt they could do anything

1208
00:54:15,920 --> 00:54:16,920
Speaker 1: anyway exactly right.

1209
00:54:17,040 --> 00:54:19,200
Speaker 3: And like Philip, I think had the proper dose of

1210
00:54:20,320 --> 00:54:23,560
Speaker 3: I'm a little ignorant and thinking I can do this. Yeah,

1211
00:54:23,600 --> 00:54:26,560
Speaker 3: and he hinted at that a couple of times yesterday.

1212
00:54:26,719 --> 00:54:28,920
Speaker 3: But I also think him and Chane Stike can have

1213
00:54:29,000 --> 00:54:35,160
Speaker 3: this insane belief that their brains can get it done.

1214
00:54:35,440 --> 00:54:38,120
Speaker 3: Their brains can get it done. Let me again focus

1215
00:54:38,160 --> 00:54:41,360
Speaker 3: on the actual body part here, not leg, not arm.

1216
00:54:41,360 --> 00:54:41,680
Speaker 2: Brain.

1217
00:54:42,000 --> 00:54:45,319
Speaker 3: They feel like they will queue up something from a

1218
00:54:45,320 --> 00:54:48,480
Speaker 3: preparation standpoint that's going to give them an opportunity to

1219
00:54:48,480 --> 00:54:50,359
Speaker 3: be better, I guess than whatever they think Riley Leonard

1220
00:54:50,400 --> 00:54:50,800
Speaker 3: could look like.

1221
00:54:50,840 --> 00:54:53,560
Speaker 1: On Sunday, to the nine ten seventy number to call,

1222
00:54:54,000 --> 00:54:56,040
Speaker 1: Let's go to Matt next this morning and the brand

1223
00:54:56,080 --> 00:54:59,120
Speaker 1: new studios. Good morning, Matt. What you got for us today? Hey?

1224
00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:00,479
Speaker 5: Real quick?

1225
00:55:00,760 --> 00:55:02,319
Speaker 15: I guess just a heads up on your new phone

1226
00:55:02,320 --> 00:55:04,520
Speaker 15: lines too. I had to keep the radio up because

1227
00:55:04,520 --> 00:55:07,200
Speaker 15: when we're on hold, we can't actually hear the conversation.

1228
00:55:07,239 --> 00:55:10,719
Speaker 1: You got ah good to know, Hey, to know absolutely.

1229
00:55:11,239 --> 00:55:14,200
Speaker 15: Now, Philip Rivers, you know you look back, Stan Humphreys

1230
00:55:14,239 --> 00:55:16,760
Speaker 15: went to a Super Bowl. Trent Dilfer won a Super Bowl.

1231
00:55:18,040 --> 00:55:21,560
Speaker 15: To me, the big thing is they did those which

1232
00:55:21,600 --> 00:55:24,080
Speaker 15: is why I never understood everybody saying we couldn't win

1233
00:55:24,160 --> 00:55:24,880
Speaker 15: with Jones.

1234
00:55:24,920 --> 00:55:26,439
Speaker 1: You know he's he's not that guy.

1235
00:55:26,560 --> 00:55:29,640
Speaker 15: Well, you can have just a solid quarterback and win

1236
00:55:29,680 --> 00:55:32,440
Speaker 15: a Super Bowl if you've got a great defense.

1237
00:55:33,680 --> 00:55:35,360
Speaker 1: And you can run those two things. You've got to

1238
00:55:35,400 --> 00:55:36,000
Speaker 1: be able to both.

1239
00:55:36,280 --> 00:55:40,120
Speaker 15: Yeah, I think a lot of pressures on lou to

1240
00:55:39,760 --> 00:55:43,080
Speaker 15: to make some massive changes from what we've seen on

1241
00:55:43,120 --> 00:55:45,920
Speaker 15: the defense the last couple of weeks. I think we

1242
00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:50,719
Speaker 15: gave interception fumble and going forward on fourth down on

1243
00:55:50,719 --> 00:55:52,720
Speaker 15: our on forty five. I think we gave away twenty

1244
00:55:52,719 --> 00:55:55,360
Speaker 15: one points last weekend. But they could have won that

1245
00:55:55,400 --> 00:55:58,680
Speaker 15: game with Riley Leonard. So I like Rivers. I think

1246
00:55:59,520 --> 00:56:01,560
Speaker 15: spend the week man, we got to shout with this guy.

1247
00:56:01,840 --> 00:56:03,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll see what happens. But they are playing a

1248
00:56:03,840 --> 00:56:06,680
Speaker 1: really good football team this weekend. That's the other thing

1249
00:56:06,719 --> 00:56:09,080
Speaker 1: that they will They've got the number one receiver in

1250
00:56:09,080 --> 00:56:10,600
Speaker 1: the league and they are going to be blitzing you.

1251
00:56:10,760 --> 00:56:12,680
Speaker 2: Having a lot of touchdown two all day long defensive.

1252
00:56:12,760 --> 00:56:15,680
Speaker 4: But to this point, I do think that the defense,

1253
00:56:15,920 --> 00:56:19,600
Speaker 4: and of course it's gonna get overlooked in our coverage

1254
00:56:19,600 --> 00:56:21,600
Speaker 4: because the big story is Philip Rivers and I'm living

1255
00:56:21,680 --> 00:56:24,040
Speaker 4: it right now. I cannot write any other story at

1256
00:56:24,080 --> 00:56:26,440
Speaker 4: the Athletic that doesn't have the name Rivers in it,

1257
00:56:26,560 --> 00:56:28,319
Speaker 4: or I might lose my job, Like they're telling me,

1258
00:56:28,600 --> 00:56:30,160
Speaker 4: you got to talk about this, You got to write.

1259
00:56:30,000 --> 00:56:30,960
Speaker 2: About this, which is fine.

1260
00:56:31,480 --> 00:56:36,640
Speaker 4: But the defense is a part of the equation for sure,

1261
00:56:37,160 --> 00:56:40,680
Speaker 4: because you can't you can't afford to be you know,

1262
00:56:40,800 --> 00:56:44,919
Speaker 4: in a shootout with this team, your defense is gonna

1263
00:56:44,920 --> 00:56:45,520
Speaker 4: have to help you out.

1264
00:56:45,680 --> 00:56:47,160
Speaker 2: Get a couple turnover, give you a short.

1265
00:56:46,960 --> 00:56:49,520
Speaker 4: Field, give you something to the effect of not having

1266
00:56:49,560 --> 00:56:52,439
Speaker 4: to line it up and say, go seventy five eighty

1267
00:56:52,480 --> 00:56:55,000
Speaker 4: yards against this defense four times to win this game.

1268
00:56:55,080 --> 00:56:57,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, some blueprint has to look like Jonathan

1269
00:56:57,600 --> 00:57:02,360
Speaker 3: Taylor creases one or two, your defense shows up and

1270
00:57:02,719 --> 00:57:04,319
Speaker 3: it rains and the ball bounces your.

1271
00:57:04,280 --> 00:57:05,000
Speaker 2: Way a couple of times.

1272
00:57:05,160 --> 00:57:08,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, that's inevitably how some sort of blueprint

1273
00:57:08,880 --> 00:57:09,439
Speaker 3: is going to happen.

1274
00:57:09,520 --> 00:57:12,000
Speaker 2: You you bribed the twelfth Man to help you.

1275
00:57:12,600 --> 00:57:15,520
Speaker 3: Does Seattle get caught looking ahead to Thursday night with

1276
00:57:15,560 --> 00:57:18,880
Speaker 3: the Rams? Like Seattle, Howard, Seattle has a massive game

1277
00:57:18,920 --> 00:57:20,680
Speaker 3: a week from tonight with the Rams?

1278
00:57:20,880 --> 00:57:22,760
Speaker 2: Right do the Seahawks? And I say this and all shit,

1279
00:57:23,360 --> 00:57:25,440
Speaker 2: are those guys foaming at the mouth for stat hunting?

1280
00:57:26,160 --> 00:57:26,480
Speaker 1: Are they?

1281
00:57:26,560 --> 00:57:26,640
Speaker 13: Like?

1282
00:57:26,720 --> 00:57:29,040
Speaker 2: Dude, they're starting a forty four year old ground. This

1283
00:57:29,040 --> 00:57:31,480
Speaker 2: is where I get my all Pro week and pad

1284
00:57:31,600 --> 00:57:32,360
Speaker 2: the stats. Yea.

1285
00:57:32,760 --> 00:57:34,840
Speaker 3: And if all of a sudden that leads to undisciplined,

1286
00:57:35,400 --> 00:57:37,959
Speaker 3: is that where Rivers comes into play of like, oh wow,

1287
00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:40,200
Speaker 3: these two dudes are trying to hunt and whatever.

1288
00:57:40,600 --> 00:57:42,320
Speaker 2: Get this sack or jump this route.

1289
00:57:42,560 --> 00:57:44,280
Speaker 3: If I have one pump fake and we can hold

1290
00:57:44,360 --> 00:57:46,680
Speaker 3: up here, all of a sudden, you know, can you

1291
00:57:46,720 --> 00:57:51,120
Speaker 3: hit something? This is all probably the far fetched thought process.

1292
00:57:51,200 --> 00:57:56,320
Speaker 3: But again on the scale of James Boy to Jared Lorenzen,

1293
00:57:57,080 --> 00:57:58,800
Speaker 3: it was a lot more Jared Lorenzen from what I

1294
00:57:58,840 --> 00:58:00,760
Speaker 3: saw from Uncle Phil Walker in there yesterday.

1295
00:58:00,840 --> 00:58:02,760
Speaker 1: I was before we get to our X phone call, Matt,

1296
00:58:02,840 --> 00:58:07,640
Speaker 1: I was gonna ask you about that because Radio.

1297
00:58:07,880 --> 00:58:09,960
Speaker 2: Corey Goes is the first play going to be a bootleg.

1298
00:58:09,960 --> 00:58:11,920
Speaker 2: I'm thinking Philip Rivers running a boot.

1299
00:58:12,200 --> 00:58:16,160
Speaker 1: So describe the body type that we're talking about now.

1300
00:58:17,240 --> 00:58:19,160
Speaker 1: Is it dad bought or a grandpa bought?

1301
00:58:19,240 --> 00:58:22,080
Speaker 3: I said it thirty or forty minutes ago, and I'll

1302
00:58:22,080 --> 00:58:25,760
Speaker 3: say it again. When Philip Rivers walked into the media

1303
00:58:25,800 --> 00:58:29,840
Speaker 3: room yesterday, my first thought was, that is Tim Allen

1304
00:58:29,880 --> 00:58:31,200
Speaker 3: here to save Christmas?

1305
00:58:34,000 --> 00:58:36,800
Speaker 1: Is Thor coming back? Remember when thora checked out for

1306
00:58:36,840 --> 00:58:39,800
Speaker 1: a while in the Marvel universe? When he came back and.

1307
00:58:39,720 --> 00:58:45,720
Speaker 2: He was all, that's a funny reference, which.

1308
00:58:45,480 --> 00:58:47,400
Speaker 3: Again I think we all can get behind a little

1309
00:58:47,400 --> 00:58:50,120
Speaker 3: Tim Allen action here we I mean, look, trust me,

1310
00:58:50,200 --> 00:58:51,320
Speaker 3: Kevin Boonen's hands are raised.

1311
00:58:51,360 --> 00:58:53,280
Speaker 2: He looks a lot more like Tim Allen than he does.

1312
00:58:53,720 --> 00:58:56,720
Speaker 2: You know, felt Santa?

1313
00:58:56,960 --> 00:58:59,240
Speaker 1: There we go? Mark?

1314
00:58:59,320 --> 00:59:00,800
Speaker 2: Was that a button? Was that your voice?

1315
00:59:00,840 --> 00:59:02,160
Speaker 1: That was me? I like it?

1316
00:59:02,360 --> 00:59:03,360
Speaker 2: That was excellent in there.

1317
00:59:03,600 --> 00:59:05,680
Speaker 1: I thought maybe you're starting to find all the drops

1318
00:59:05,680 --> 00:59:06,360
Speaker 1: and stuff today.

1319
00:59:06,640 --> 00:59:08,320
Speaker 7: No, I don't have any Tim Allen drops of that.

1320
00:59:09,920 --> 00:59:11,560
Speaker 1: Let's go talk to Matt next to two through nine

1321
00:59:11,600 --> 00:59:13,800
Speaker 1: ten seventy. Matt, you want to talk about coach taken?

1322
00:59:15,440 --> 00:59:16,760
Speaker 5: This is John John.

1323
00:59:18,080 --> 00:59:24,720
Speaker 12: Yeah, I wanted to talk. I feel like that as

1324
00:59:24,760 --> 00:59:30,360
Speaker 12: a coach is your job to make players feel like

1325
00:59:30,480 --> 00:59:33,160
Speaker 12: they can do what you asked them to do, and

1326
00:59:33,200 --> 00:59:37,480
Speaker 12: if you've been coaching Riley Leonard all year, it's a

1327
00:59:37,600 --> 00:59:42,800
Speaker 12: slap in his face to mentor him, to deal with him.

1328
00:59:43,160 --> 00:59:45,680
Speaker 12: And then when it's time to count on him, you

1329
00:59:45,760 --> 00:59:48,680
Speaker 12: go get somebody off the couch and say you trust

1330
00:59:48,760 --> 00:59:52,400
Speaker 12: him more than you do the person you drafted, You

1331
00:59:52,520 --> 00:59:57,160
Speaker 12: invested time in you, you gave all this responsibility to,

1332
00:59:57,320 --> 00:59:59,880
Speaker 12: you had him second on the depth chart, and then

1333
01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:04,240
Speaker 12: to go get Philip Rivers and consider starting him over.

1334
01:00:04,280 --> 01:00:07,880
Speaker 12: This person that's been working for you, has been studying

1335
01:00:07,920 --> 01:00:09,720
Speaker 12: with you, have been in the room with you for

1336
01:00:10,280 --> 01:00:13,800
Speaker 12: all year, and then make him feel inadequate. I feel

1337
01:00:13,800 --> 01:00:16,080
Speaker 12: like that's the same thing he did with Anthony Richardson

1338
01:00:16,120 --> 01:00:18,919
Speaker 12: with things got bad. If you look at last year

1339
01:00:18,960 --> 01:00:24,760
Speaker 12: in Green Bay when love went down Willis, nobody believed

1340
01:00:24,760 --> 01:00:26,640
Speaker 12: Willis was gonna come in and do a good job,

1341
01:00:27,160 --> 01:00:29,040
Speaker 12: but they put him in there. He won a couple

1342
01:00:29,120 --> 01:00:32,560
Speaker 12: games for him. I just don't understand the commitment issues

1343
01:00:32,560 --> 01:00:35,479
Speaker 12: of psyching Hanks boy John.

1344
01:00:35,520 --> 01:00:38,160
Speaker 3: I think there's so much accurate info there, so much

1345
01:00:38,400 --> 01:00:40,600
Speaker 3: and James, That's where I've kind of sided on this

1346
01:00:40,680 --> 01:00:43,880
Speaker 3: Thursday morning, one of my biggest surprises in the last

1347
01:00:43,880 --> 01:00:45,840
Speaker 3: twenty four hours. Twenty four hours ago, I thought Philip

1348
01:00:45,920 --> 01:00:49,160
Speaker 3: Rivers would start on Sunday, but I thought Riley Leonard's

1349
01:00:49,320 --> 01:00:51,640
Speaker 3: health was a big.

1350
01:00:51,440 --> 01:00:53,919
Speaker 2: Factor in that. I no longer think that.

1351
01:00:54,640 --> 01:00:59,040
Speaker 3: I think this is purely Shane Stiken caught up in

1352
01:00:59,160 --> 01:01:06,600
Speaker 3: the aura of Philip Rivers and thinking, believing we've lost

1353
01:01:06,640 --> 01:01:07,280
Speaker 3: four or five.

1354
01:01:07,680 --> 01:01:10,080
Speaker 2: We need juice more.

1355
01:01:09,880 --> 01:01:13,600
Speaker 3: So than Ryle Leonard can't go. Ry Lander was a

1356
01:01:13,720 --> 01:01:17,280
Speaker 3: full participant in a Wednesday practice. James, you have covered

1357
01:01:17,280 --> 01:01:20,560
Speaker 3: the NFL long enough. If you are a full participant

1358
01:01:20,600 --> 01:01:24,040
Speaker 3: on a Wednesday practice, you play ninety nine times out

1359
01:01:24,040 --> 01:01:24,560
Speaker 3: of one hundred.

1360
01:01:24,720 --> 01:01:27,640
Speaker 4: And to be clear, when we were watching to move around,

1361
01:01:27,760 --> 01:01:30,680
Speaker 4: this was not Daniel Jones on Thanksgiving two weeks ago

1362
01:01:31,160 --> 01:01:33,880
Speaker 4: when we were all like, oh boy, is your leg

1363
01:01:33,920 --> 01:01:36,640
Speaker 4: attached to your body right now?

1364
01:01:37,000 --> 01:01:40,200
Speaker 2: He looks fine. Hell, he looked better than.

1365
01:01:40,120 --> 01:01:42,320
Speaker 4: The old guy when it comes from a movement standpoint.

1366
01:01:42,720 --> 01:01:45,280
Speaker 4: But one thing to note, and we'll get to the checkdown.

1367
01:01:45,880 --> 01:01:47,400
Speaker 4: And maybe I'm reading too much into it, but the

1368
01:01:47,520 --> 01:01:50,160
Speaker 4: order of the quarterbacks yesterday, which is typically how it

1369
01:01:50,200 --> 01:01:54,880
Speaker 4: goes when it comes to reps, was Rivers Leonard then ripping.

1370
01:01:56,800 --> 01:01:59,720
Speaker 3: All signs point to number seventeen under center as long

1371
01:01:59,760 --> 01:02:02,040
Speaker 3: as he woke up today and felt fine, which I mean,

1372
01:02:03,160 --> 01:02:04,080
Speaker 3: that's a fair question.

1373
01:02:04,120 --> 01:02:06,000
Speaker 1: I feel like, do we call him seventeen A or

1374
01:02:06,080 --> 01:02:11,720
Speaker 1: seventeen B seventeen DC. I like that, good job out

1375
01:02:11,760 --> 01:02:13,360
Speaker 1: of you, Mark. Let's check it down.

1376
01:02:15,800 --> 01:02:19,000
Speaker 6: The Morning Checkdown on ninety sweet five and one oh

1377
01:02:19,080 --> 01:02:19,840
Speaker 6: seven five the.

1378
01:02:19,960 --> 01:02:24,040
Speaker 1: Fan talking about the new acquisition for the Indianapolis Colts.

1379
01:02:24,480 --> 01:02:27,000
Speaker 1: His name is Philip Rivers and he may or may

1380
01:02:27,040 --> 01:02:30,480
Speaker 1: not be the starting quarterback for the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday. James.

1381
01:02:30,560 --> 01:02:33,760
Speaker 1: He is still on the practice squad as we speak,

1382
01:02:34,840 --> 01:02:35,360
Speaker 1: and if.

1383
01:02:35,200 --> 01:02:36,800
Speaker 4: We keep speaking by the end of this show, you

1384
01:02:36,840 --> 01:02:39,360
Speaker 4: might be activated. That's how confident I feel in him

1385
01:02:39,360 --> 01:02:40,000
Speaker 4: playing Sunday.

1386
01:02:40,160 --> 01:02:42,680
Speaker 1: And I think you pointed out yesterday just the reps right,

1387
01:02:42,760 --> 01:02:46,520
Speaker 1: it was clearly Philip Rivers one, Bradley Leonard two, Brett

1388
01:02:46,560 --> 01:02:47,040
Speaker 1: Rippon three.

1389
01:02:47,200 --> 01:02:49,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, for the portion that we saw in the media

1390
01:02:49,720 --> 01:02:51,600
Speaker 4: viewing period, that was the order.

1391
01:02:51,640 --> 01:02:53,439
Speaker 3: It's funny I looked over in the locker room, James.

1392
01:02:53,440 --> 01:02:55,280
Speaker 3: I know you caught that, but Tanner Bordolini was like

1393
01:02:55,320 --> 01:02:58,720
Speaker 3: mimicking snaps to Philip Rivers as they were putting on

1394
01:02:58,760 --> 01:03:00,000
Speaker 3: their pads to get ready for.

1395
01:03:00,200 --> 01:03:03,320
Speaker 1: Kind of like that on deck batters taking as Philip.

1396
01:03:03,120 --> 01:03:05,800
Speaker 2: Is shaking hands of these guys that he hasn't met yet.

1397
01:03:05,840 --> 01:03:08,080
Speaker 3: So yes, I would say again, as long as Philip

1398
01:03:08,160 --> 01:03:10,840
Speaker 3: Rivers didn't trip and fall one hundred times in practice,

1399
01:03:11,280 --> 01:03:12,520
Speaker 3: he will be the starter on something.

1400
01:03:12,600 --> 01:03:15,120
Speaker 1: So we know what happened yesterday in the public press conferences.

1401
01:03:15,160 --> 01:03:18,320
Speaker 1: I'm curious what did Shane Stiken say to his team

1402
01:03:18,360 --> 01:03:19,120
Speaker 1: about all of this.

1403
01:03:19,680 --> 01:03:21,400
Speaker 16: Yeah, I think you've got a guy that's done it

1404
01:03:21,400 --> 01:03:24,600
Speaker 16: at a high level. Obviously it's been some time for him,

1405
01:03:24,920 --> 01:03:27,560
Speaker 16: but the leadership that he has and the juice he's

1406
01:03:27,560 --> 01:03:30,160
Speaker 16: going to bring to this football team is gonna you know,

1407
01:03:30,560 --> 01:03:32,360
Speaker 16: I think it's going to be awesome for our guys

1408
01:03:32,400 --> 01:03:34,800
Speaker 16: just out on the practice field in those meeting rooms.

1409
01:03:35,320 --> 01:03:37,040
Speaker 16: Like I said, we're eight and five. You know, we

1410
01:03:37,120 --> 01:03:39,280
Speaker 16: got everything we want in front of us, and we

1411
01:03:39,320 --> 01:03:40,320
Speaker 16: got to go do it. You know, we got a

1412
01:03:40,320 --> 01:03:42,400
Speaker 16: hell of a challenge this week in Seattle that we

1413
01:03:42,440 --> 01:03:43,200
Speaker 16: got to get ready for.

1414
01:03:43,840 --> 01:03:46,600
Speaker 1: So there you go, Kevin, that's the masters to the guys.

1415
01:03:46,720 --> 01:03:50,600
Speaker 1: Juice your word to start today. Juice for the Indianapolis Colts.

1416
01:03:50,400 --> 01:03:53,760
Speaker 2: Juice so much squeezes in it. He is juice. He

1417
01:03:53,880 --> 01:03:54,440
Speaker 2: is juice.

1418
01:03:54,720 --> 01:03:59,720
Speaker 1: College basketball? Where do I even go from there? James?

1419
01:03:59,760 --> 01:04:01,360
Speaker 2: You got to keep rolling. See that's the old problem.

1420
01:04:01,360 --> 01:04:02,400
Speaker 2: So if you got to keep rolling.

1421
01:04:03,080 --> 01:04:06,240
Speaker 1: The Boilermakers set home Machie last night, they were winners

1422
01:04:06,240 --> 01:04:09,000
Speaker 1: over the Golden Gophers of Minnesota eighty five fifty seven.

1423
01:04:09,120 --> 01:04:11,600
Speaker 1: They had a three point advantage at halftime and then

1424
01:04:11,640 --> 01:04:15,120
Speaker 1: started the second half of a twenty one point run.

1425
01:04:15,680 --> 01:04:17,160
Speaker 1: That's big time, James Boyd.

1426
01:04:17,240 --> 01:04:19,479
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, this is still a very good basketball team.

1427
01:04:19,480 --> 01:04:21,280
Speaker 4: And I get all the jokes, you know, a lot

1428
01:04:21,280 --> 01:04:23,200
Speaker 4: of them from IU fans, and I'll be justice petty

1429
01:04:23,480 --> 01:04:25,560
Speaker 4: after they got steamrolled as a number one team in

1430
01:04:25,560 --> 01:04:28,560
Speaker 4: the country by Iowa State. But best believe that team

1431
01:04:28,600 --> 01:04:30,320
Speaker 4: will bounce back and be there at the end to

1432
01:04:30,320 --> 01:04:32,160
Speaker 4: say something about, you know, how the season could go

1433
01:04:32,200 --> 01:04:33,160
Speaker 4: in the NCAA tournament.

1434
01:04:33,160 --> 01:04:34,959
Speaker 1: You want to talk about a line from Brayden Smith

1435
01:04:35,040 --> 01:04:39,760
Speaker 1: last night. Fifteen points, six boards, twelve assists, five steals,

1436
01:04:39,800 --> 01:04:43,000
Speaker 1: and two block shots in thirty one minutes of play.

1437
01:04:43,040 --> 01:04:45,040
Speaker 4: This is me playing maximall on one on one. Get

1438
01:04:45,080 --> 01:04:47,320
Speaker 4: them ready, Kevin, So that works.

1439
01:04:47,520 --> 01:04:50,160
Speaker 1: Also a nice performance Treykoff and Ren bounced back from

1440
01:04:50,200 --> 01:04:54,080
Speaker 1: a tough Saturday fourteen and ten for him. Oscar Cloff

1441
01:04:54,120 --> 01:04:57,680
Speaker 1: had fourteen points and eleven rebounds. Fletcher Lawyer was two

1442
01:04:57,760 --> 01:05:00,080
Speaker 1: for four from the field. He had ten points. It

1443
01:05:00,120 --> 01:05:03,040
Speaker 1: was all said and done. Indiana will be playing on

1444
01:05:03,120 --> 01:05:08,000
Speaker 1: Saturday against Kentucky down in Lexington. Meanwhile, Notre Dame played

1445
01:05:08,000 --> 01:05:09,640
Speaker 1: a basketball game last night. Kevin Bell and I don't

1446
01:05:09,640 --> 01:05:11,560
Speaker 1: know if you heard, but the fighting Irish at home.

1447
01:05:11,920 --> 01:05:14,040
Speaker 1: We're able to hold off the Idaho Annals by a

1448
01:05:14,080 --> 01:05:17,960
Speaker 1: score of eighty to sixty five in that game last night.

1449
01:05:18,080 --> 01:05:20,280
Speaker 3: Thank you Austin for this. He goes juice is stupid.

1450
01:05:20,360 --> 01:05:22,440
Speaker 3: Just drink water, Aka Riley.

1451
01:05:22,240 --> 01:05:26,400
Speaker 1: I like it. Go Beko. Johnson led this scoring last

1452
01:05:26,440 --> 01:05:29,320
Speaker 1: night with nineteen points. For your fight in Irish.

1453
01:05:29,320 --> 01:05:30,200
Speaker 2: He plays for Idaho.

1454
01:05:30,400 --> 01:05:33,480
Speaker 1: I'm sorry he led the gate, he led Idah. Thank

1455
01:05:33,520 --> 01:05:34,120
Speaker 1: you very much.

1456
01:05:34,280 --> 01:05:37,960
Speaker 2: Yes, you don't even know your Notre Dame basketball personnel.

1457
01:05:38,400 --> 01:05:38,920
Speaker 1: No, I was.

1458
01:05:38,960 --> 01:05:41,280
Speaker 2: Don't worry, Jeff, I don't either. That was my best

1459
01:05:41,280 --> 01:05:41,760
Speaker 2: friends here.

1460
01:05:41,800 --> 01:05:43,440
Speaker 1: That was my best Ron Burgundy right there.

1461
01:05:43,480 --> 01:05:44,480
Speaker 2: Marcus Freeman in Michigan.

1462
01:05:44,520 --> 01:05:48,000
Speaker 1: How'd that happened? During a Notre Dame story. I don't know, James.

1463
01:05:49,480 --> 01:05:49,959
Speaker 2: Middle Finger.

1464
01:05:49,960 --> 01:05:53,080
Speaker 4: I fact I got Mark in my ear saying Marcus

1465
01:05:53,080 --> 01:05:54,080
Speaker 4: Freeman and Michigan next.

1466
01:05:54,080 --> 01:05:54,479
Speaker 2: That's good.

1467
01:05:55,360 --> 01:05:58,240
Speaker 1: Speaking of Michigan, they are looking for a new head coach.

1468
01:05:58,320 --> 01:06:01,760
Speaker 1: What a day for Sharon Morios today, Kevin, this is

1469
01:06:01,840 --> 01:06:05,320
Speaker 1: just bizarre. He's let go by the school very publicly

1470
01:06:05,720 --> 01:06:10,480
Speaker 1: for having an allegedly and inappropriate relationship with another staff

1471
01:06:10,560 --> 01:06:13,439
Speaker 1: member there. But then later in the afternoon he's taken

1472
01:06:13,480 --> 01:06:19,360
Speaker 1: into custody potentially a suspect in an alleged assault of

1473
01:06:19,400 --> 01:06:22,080
Speaker 1: some type. They weren't real clear on all that. But

1474
01:06:22,160 --> 01:06:23,640
Speaker 1: that's a tough day for a guy.

1475
01:06:24,280 --> 01:06:26,000
Speaker 2: I would say. Tough day is a very light way

1476
01:06:26,040 --> 01:06:30,080
Speaker 2: to put it. Sound absolutely horrific. It sounds awful.

1477
01:06:30,160 --> 01:06:32,560
Speaker 3: It sounds like I'd rather write the Philip Rivers story

1478
01:06:32,600 --> 01:06:34,240
Speaker 3: three hundred and sixty five days out of the year

1479
01:06:34,280 --> 01:06:35,480
Speaker 3: than cover this story.

1480
01:06:36,320 --> 01:06:38,760
Speaker 1: Uh so we'll see what they next.

1481
01:06:39,880 --> 01:06:44,280
Speaker 4: Oh man, I actually think that not nom serious? Get

1482
01:06:44,360 --> 01:06:46,800
Speaker 4: given the j why not?

1483
01:06:46,840 --> 01:06:49,240
Speaker 2: I mean of the lack of options? Maybe did any

1484
01:06:49,280 --> 01:06:51,080
Speaker 2: coach up there doesn't have a lake house in Michigan.

1485
01:06:52,240 --> 01:06:55,520
Speaker 2: I'm not against it. Who else? Your options are very limited?

1486
01:06:55,560 --> 01:06:58,480
Speaker 2: I'm limited Jesse Mintor from the Chargers.

1487
01:07:00,560 --> 01:07:03,480
Speaker 1: Man, that's what's going on in college football. Of course,

1488
01:07:03,720 --> 01:07:07,160
Speaker 1: we're getting ready for the playoffs to start, and we

1489
01:07:07,200 --> 01:07:09,080
Speaker 1: won't see the ye We won't see the end of

1490
01:07:09,160 --> 01:07:13,240
Speaker 1: those playoffs until Rose Bowl New Year's Day. So they

1491
01:07:13,280 --> 01:07:15,120
Speaker 1: got a lot of work. And of course the tough

1492
01:07:15,160 --> 01:07:17,800
Speaker 1: news yesterday Kevin that they did indeed lose one of

1493
01:07:17,840 --> 01:07:21,520
Speaker 1: their key defensive players. Celebrating after the win yesterday, that's

1494
01:07:21,520 --> 01:07:23,120
Speaker 1: still tough to sink in right there.

1495
01:07:23,400 --> 01:07:27,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, just awful, awful for Steven Daily and Indiana as well.

1496
01:07:27,240 --> 01:07:30,480
Speaker 3: One of the more horrific injury scenes you'll see for

1497
01:07:30,520 --> 01:07:33,480
Speaker 3: those unfamiliar. Daily, one of the more disruptive defensive lineman

1498
01:07:33,520 --> 01:07:36,640
Speaker 3: all of college football this season. I had a great

1499
01:07:36,640 --> 01:07:40,040
Speaker 3: game on Saturday night. I think he had the final

1500
01:07:40,040 --> 01:07:42,760
Speaker 3: pressure of the game on saying had a sack as well. Now,

1501
01:07:42,800 --> 01:07:44,480
Speaker 3: one thing about their D line group, I think it's

1502
01:07:44,520 --> 01:07:47,240
Speaker 3: been their best unit all year long. I think it's

1503
01:07:47,280 --> 01:07:49,520
Speaker 3: got great dev Pat Koons and company have done an

1504
01:07:49,520 --> 01:07:54,640
Speaker 3: awesome job with that bunch. And you know, McHale Kamara

1505
01:07:54,680 --> 01:07:56,200
Speaker 3: has been a little banged up this season, and you

1506
01:07:56,320 --> 01:07:58,200
Speaker 3: last year you played at an All American level so

1507
01:07:58,320 --> 01:07:59,760
Speaker 3: you know, I'm curious for this time off if he

1508
01:07:59,760 --> 01:08:02,160
Speaker 3: could get back to that level. And I also think

1509
01:08:02,200 --> 01:08:03,960
Speaker 3: the good news is, no matter who you play on

1510
01:08:03,960 --> 01:08:07,360
Speaker 3: New Year's Day, Oklahoma and Alabama, their offensive stink. Alabama

1511
01:08:07,400 --> 01:08:10,840
Speaker 3: negative rushing yards in the SEC title game and Oklahoma

1512
01:08:11,120 --> 01:08:13,520
Speaker 3: just can't move it. So I do think that is

1513
01:08:13,680 --> 01:08:16,920
Speaker 3: that that helps out Indiana in that realm. But still

1514
01:08:17,040 --> 01:08:20,479
Speaker 3: just a just horrific. You know the video of him

1515
01:08:20,520 --> 01:08:23,880
Speaker 3: high five and fans and apparently got hurt in that moment,

1516
01:08:24,040 --> 01:08:24,639
Speaker 3: just awful.

1517
01:08:25,000 --> 01:08:27,640
Speaker 1: All right. Two quick scores. NBA Cup last night, the

1518
01:08:27,680 --> 01:08:31,400
Speaker 1: West have their semi finals. The Thunder beat the Suns

1519
01:08:31,439 --> 01:08:33,680
Speaker 1: one thirty eight to eighty nine and the Spurs over

1520
01:08:33,720 --> 01:08:36,599
Speaker 1: the Lakers one thirty two one nineteen. Those two teams

1521
01:08:36,640 --> 01:08:40,880
Speaker 1: will play for the Western I can't can't call it

1522
01:08:40,880 --> 01:08:42,519
Speaker 1: a title of any kind, but that'll be the Western

1523
01:08:42,560 --> 01:08:45,960
Speaker 1: representative in the NBA Cup Final. So that's what's going

1524
01:08:46,000 --> 01:08:47,600
Speaker 1: on in the NBA. And Kevin, I promise from here

1525
01:08:47,640 --> 01:08:49,400
Speaker 1: and I'll make you a promise. I'll pinky square no

1526
01:08:49,439 --> 01:08:50,720
Speaker 1: more disrespect another.

1527
01:08:50,520 --> 01:08:54,599
Speaker 2: Day, Bryan says, Phil Rivers is bringing prune juice. Jeez,

1528
01:08:55,600 --> 01:08:56,320
Speaker 2: I ain't gonna.

1529
01:08:56,960 --> 01:08:59,479
Speaker 4: Only person I know my life that uses prune juice

1530
01:08:59,479 --> 01:09:00,000
Speaker 4: as my grandma.

1531
01:09:01,560 --> 01:09:04,280
Speaker 2: Well, I'll just leave that right there.

1532
01:09:04,320 --> 01:09:06,960
Speaker 1: But I say, I think you've said it all, James

1533
01:09:06,960 --> 01:09:09,240
Speaker 1: and joke rightesself. Yeah, all right, come out up in

1534
01:09:09,280 --> 01:09:11,639
Speaker 1: a moment, no joke. Butler's playing pretty good basketball right now.

1535
01:09:11,640 --> 01:09:14,080
Speaker 1: We'll speak with their head coach that Mada next. It's

1536

Speaker 1: going on.

1545
01:09:34,760 --> 01:09:36,600
Speaker 7: I know, I feel a little bit of uncomfortable as

1546
01:09:36,640 --> 01:09:37,599
Speaker 7: too many people right now.

1547
01:09:37,760 --> 01:09:39,120
Speaker 2: I can't take ants off.

1548
01:09:39,600 --> 01:09:42,639
Speaker 1: Oh lord, you know our next guest is on the phone.

1549
01:09:42,640 --> 01:09:45,080
Speaker 1: You can hear everything. It's the head coach for the

1550
01:09:45,080 --> 01:09:48,160
Speaker 1: Butler Bulldogs. I don't know what it's like sometimes around

1551
01:09:48,760 --> 01:09:51,080
Speaker 1: where you're at, but who knows what's going to happen

1552
01:09:51,120 --> 01:09:55,120
Speaker 1: here at that who knows. We like it that way.

1553
01:09:55,160 --> 01:09:56,960
Speaker 11: It's a good thing, right, I mean, there's there's nothing

1554
01:09:57,000 --> 01:09:58,559
Speaker 11: better than the unknown, that's for sure.

1555
01:09:59,120 --> 01:10:01,040
Speaker 1: We're starting to find out out a little bit more

1556
01:10:01,280 --> 01:10:06,360
Speaker 1: about the Butler Bulldogs. They I think you've played well

1557
01:10:06,400 --> 01:10:09,080
Speaker 1: so far. What have your thoughts been over these first

1558
01:10:09,080 --> 01:10:09,719
Speaker 1: couple of weeks.

1559
01:10:11,280 --> 01:10:14,000
Speaker 11: Well, you know, we've had some good moments, there's no

1560
01:10:14,120 --> 01:10:17,040
Speaker 11: question about that. And and I think as the whole

1561
01:10:17,040 --> 01:10:20,040
Speaker 11: teams in college basketball, we're still a work in progress.

1562
01:10:20,080 --> 01:10:23,560
Speaker 13: And you know, just sort of getting.

1563
01:10:23,240 --> 01:10:27,360
Speaker 11: Guys experience at certain positions and and you know, kind

1564
01:10:27,400 --> 01:10:31,400
Speaker 11: of looking at our rotations and seeing what guys are

1565
01:10:31,439 --> 01:10:33,680
Speaker 11: bringing to the table with the bringing to the table.

1566
01:10:33,439 --> 01:10:36,479
Speaker 13: And you know, the hard part is no opponents the same.

1567
01:10:36,800 --> 01:10:39,240
Speaker 11: And you know from for instance, you know, you play Boys,

1568
01:10:39,240 --> 01:10:42,920
Speaker 11: you stayed on on Saturday, and you got Providence this Saturday,

1569
01:10:43,439 --> 01:10:48,160
Speaker 11: and there are two completely different basketball teams. And so

1570
01:10:48,360 --> 01:10:51,160
Speaker 11: trying to get your guys to understand the preparation that

1571
01:10:51,200 --> 01:10:53,800
Speaker 11: goes into what we have to do and and how we.

1572
01:10:53,760 --> 01:10:54,280
Speaker 13: Have to do it.

1573
01:10:54,320 --> 01:10:57,320
Speaker 11: I think that's the biggest things in terms of the

1574
01:10:57,400 --> 01:10:59,080
Speaker 11: teaching and the coaching that we have to do.

1575
01:11:00,240 --> 01:11:02,280
Speaker 3: What did you see particularly, I guess that second half

1576
01:11:02,320 --> 01:11:04,160
Speaker 3: when you know it's a pretty close game on Saturday

1577
01:11:04,160 --> 01:11:05,960
Speaker 3: there with Boise and then they made that run and

1578
01:11:05,960 --> 01:11:07,120
Speaker 3: you guys couldn't get back in it.

1579
01:11:08,880 --> 01:11:09,720
Speaker 13: Yeah, I'll tell you what.

1580
01:11:10,240 --> 01:11:13,000
Speaker 11: You know, it's uh when you play a team like

1581
01:11:13,000 --> 01:11:15,880
Speaker 11: Boys Stay and I said this last week, they're they're

1582
01:11:16,280 --> 01:11:18,759
Speaker 11: really really good team. And you know, we had some

1583
01:11:18,760 --> 01:11:22,880
Speaker 11: some breakdowns defensively and you know, they just say they

1584
01:11:22,920 --> 01:11:25,880
Speaker 11: made us pay for him. And then offensively, you know,

1585
01:11:25,960 --> 01:11:28,679
Speaker 11: it's one of those games where we really really struggled

1586
01:11:28,680 --> 01:11:30,640
Speaker 11: to put the ball in the basket. You know, we

1587
01:11:30,720 --> 01:11:33,280
Speaker 11: missed too dunks at the beginning of the game, and uh,

1588
01:11:33,280 --> 01:11:35,640
Speaker 11: I think we're one for eleven for three at halftime,

1589
01:11:35,760 --> 01:11:37,400
Speaker 11: and and you know had some.

1590
01:11:37,400 --> 01:11:40,400
Speaker 17: That were great looks that went in and out, and uh,

1591
01:11:40,479 --> 01:11:42,120
Speaker 17: you know when that happens, you got to you gotta

1592
01:11:42,200 --> 01:11:45,400
Speaker 17: keep defending. You can't tie your your offense to your defense.

1593
01:11:45,479 --> 01:11:48,320
Speaker 17: And uh, every you know the game like that, every

1594
01:11:48,320 --> 01:11:50,120
Speaker 17: posssion is vitally important.

1595
01:11:50,960 --> 01:11:53,080
Speaker 4: Dad, I'm very curious about this when it comes to

1596
01:11:53,760 --> 01:11:56,800
Speaker 4: college basketball schedule, you all have quite the gap in

1597
01:11:56,840 --> 01:12:00,000
Speaker 4: between now and your next game and have you had

1598
01:12:00,200 --> 01:12:02,840
Speaker 4: quiet the gap rather, what does that look like? How

1599
01:12:02,880 --> 01:12:04,840
Speaker 4: do you plan for that when you know you're gonna

1600
01:12:04,840 --> 01:12:07,280
Speaker 4: have your guys off probably a little healthier, but you

1601
01:12:07,320 --> 01:12:10,040
Speaker 4: want them to stay in that competitive mind frame.

1602
01:12:09,800 --> 01:12:11,439
Speaker 2: For a big game comp against Providence.

1603
01:12:12,920 --> 01:12:15,800
Speaker 11: Yeah, you know this catching is is is crazy, to

1604
01:12:15,800 --> 01:12:16,880
Speaker 11: be honest with you, And this is kind of a

1605
01:12:16,960 --> 01:12:19,880
Speaker 11: slow week in college basketball, and then next week's finals week.

1606
01:12:21,040 --> 01:12:22,640
Speaker 11: You know, I remember Peck the day when it was

1607
01:12:22,800 --> 01:12:24,599
Speaker 11: taboo to play a game during.

1608
01:12:24,439 --> 01:12:25,080
Speaker 13: The finals week.

1609
01:12:25,080 --> 01:12:28,519

Speaker 11: we got guys taking finals out there, but no, we

1611
01:12:32,439 --> 01:12:33,120
Speaker 11: we've taken.

1612
01:12:32,920 --> 01:12:36,400
Speaker 13: This week and and you know, really tried to hone

01:12:36,400 --> 01:12:37,080
Speaker 13: in on us.

1614
01:12:37,080 --> 01:12:39,840
Speaker 11: As well as prepared for Providence. But uh, you know,

1615
01:12:39,840 --> 01:12:42,200
Speaker 11: knowing that that we got a we got a lot

1616
01:12:42,200 --> 01:12:44,240
Speaker 11: of areas and that we need to get better at

1617
01:12:44,280 --> 01:12:45,719
Speaker 11: and we've addressed those.

1618
01:12:45,560 --> 01:12:47,160
Speaker 13: And we've also gotten some rest.

1619
01:12:47,240 --> 01:12:49,040

Speaker 13: Well, Yeah, let me.

1636
01:13:36,880 --> 01:13:39,080
Speaker 11: Starting with Jamie KUIs. I think Jamie's is having a

1637
01:13:39,120 --> 01:13:42,120
Speaker 11: heck of a season. We need him to get more

1638
01:13:42,160 --> 01:13:45,520
Speaker 11: shots up throughout the course of the game, but you know, defensively,

1639
01:13:45,560 --> 01:13:48,840
Speaker 11: he's had some really really good moments for us.

1640
01:13:49,880 --> 01:13:50,960
Speaker 12: I think you see.

1641
01:13:50,920 --> 01:13:54,280
Speaker 11: Drayton Jones is kind of coming into the player that

1642
01:13:54,280 --> 01:13:56,360
Speaker 11: we were hoping he was going to be the mud

1643
01:13:56,400 --> 01:13:58,719
Speaker 11: four shots, the other day, which we need the rim protection.

1644
01:14:00,360 --> 01:14:02,879
Speaker 13: I think Xavier and is growing.

1645
01:14:03,000 --> 01:14:05,960
Speaker 11: I mean he's nine college games into his career, and

1646
01:14:06,080 --> 01:14:10,639
Speaker 11: you know, folks that who missed five weeks is getting

1647
01:14:10,680 --> 01:14:16,160
Speaker 11: more and more game experience. You know, Johann we I

1648
01:14:16,280 --> 01:14:18,839
Speaker 11: like the way when he's when he's on, he's playing

1649
01:14:18,880 --> 01:14:20,760
Speaker 11: really well. We got to get more consistent throughout. But

1650
01:14:21,520 --> 01:14:23,240
Speaker 11: I think he's doing a heck of a job for so,

1651
01:14:23,560 --> 01:14:25,439
Speaker 11: you know, just really across the board, and you know,

1652

Speaker 11: the freshmen are coming along.

1653
01:14:27,400 --> 01:14:28,880
Speaker 13: We've we've been able to get.

1654
01:14:28,760 --> 01:14:31,559
Speaker 11: Them a lot of experience early uh in the season,

1655
01:14:31,640 --> 01:14:34,320
Speaker 11: so you know, hopefully, and that's that's one of our things.

1706
01:16:39,880 --> 01:16:42,960
Speaker 1: there apparently engraved by Thompson Furniture and Mattress in Columbus, Indiana.

1707
01:16:43,040 --> 01:16:45,479
Speaker 1: So go check that out. But thank you very much, Spencer.

1708
01:16:45,920 --> 01:16:48,360
Speaker 1: Very appreciated here in the brand new studios as well.

1709
01:16:49,040 --> 01:16:51,120
Speaker 1: We're probably not supposed to have these on the desk

1710
01:16:51,160 --> 01:16:54,160
Speaker 1: of the new studio. But I told Nick Lopez, chief Engineering, Hey,

1711
01:16:54,160 --> 01:16:56,719
Speaker 1: it's a sponsor related thing. We're gonna do that. He's like, okay,

1712
01:16:57,920 --> 01:16:59,600
Speaker 1: So see they weren't even that worried about it.

1713
01:16:59,600 --> 01:17:01,960
Speaker 2: I got a Bhil River's EU connection on the other side.

1714
01:17:01,960 --> 01:17:05,200
Speaker 1: Oh, I can't wait to hear that. Kevin Bowen juice,

1718
01:17:15,760 --> 01:17:17,960
Speaker 1: to have windows in the studio for a change. You

1719
01:17:18,040 --> 01:17:20,360
Speaker 1: can kind of see what's going on. What are you

1720
01:17:20,360 --> 01:17:20,960
Speaker 1: talking about?

1721
01:17:21,200 --> 01:17:23,200
Speaker 2: You can still see what's the people.

1722
01:17:23,520 --> 01:17:25,400
Speaker 1: You can still see what's going on there. The seat

Speaker 1: It's not even blinds, it's the sea through screen.

Speaker 2: Okay, all right, see see you have stayed up. It's beautiful.

Speaker 1: We're right across the street from the old Angie's building.

1730
01:17:48,000 --> 01:17:50,240
Speaker 1: Remember the building. I don't know what it's called.

1731
01:17:50,280 --> 01:17:53,599
Speaker 2: Now that's that is just beautiful outside.

01:18:03,600 --> 01:18:08,559
Speaker 2: Road in college was in Bloomington, Indiana. Really as a

1737
01:18:08,640 --> 01:18:11,840
Speaker 2: true freshman starter at NC State. His second career game,

1738
01:18:11,880 --> 01:18:14,639
Speaker 2: first ever road start. Where you're going with a beat?

1739
01:18:14,800 --> 01:18:20,439
Speaker 2: Antoine Randelel and the Hoosiers forty one thirty eight. Phil

1740
01:18:20,520 --> 01:18:23,400
Speaker 2: Rivers threw for four hundred one yards in the year

1741
01:18:23,439 --> 01:18:27,599
Speaker 2: two thousand, twenty five years ago, five touchdowns, four hundred

1742
01:18:27,600 --> 01:18:30,400
Speaker 2: and one yards for Philip Rivers. The next year, they

1743
01:18:30,439 --> 01:18:33,520
Speaker 2: beat Indiana in the return game in Raleigh.

1744
01:18:33,960 --> 01:18:39,120
Speaker 3: The position coach for Philip Rivers in the year two

1745
01:18:39,160 --> 01:18:42,880
Speaker 3: thousand at INC State, I think I.

1746
01:18:42,840 --> 01:18:45,240
Speaker 2: Know this answer, so I don't want to like spoil it.

1747
01:18:46,000 --> 01:18:46,559
Speaker 1: Go for it.

1748
01:18:46,960 --> 01:18:49,840
Speaker 2: James Boyd, is it sig.

1749
01:18:51,320 --> 01:18:51,559
Speaker 13: One?

1750
01:18:51,840 --> 01:18:53,240
Speaker 2: Curtis Signetti?

1751
01:18:53,320 --> 01:18:54,720
Speaker 1: It was almost I was gonna say it about that

1752
01:18:54,840 --> 01:18:59,360
Speaker 1: a totald. Guess that's because it's too crazy to be true.

1753
01:18:59,439 --> 01:19:01,720
Speaker 2: That's all true. I think I already knew it. How

1754
01:19:01,760 --> 01:19:04,760
Speaker 2: about it? All right? The vibes for Sunday Phils thrown

1755
01:19:04,800 --> 01:19:08,400
Speaker 2: for three thirty and three Offensive Player of the Week,

1756
01:19:08,439 --> 01:19:10,280
Speaker 2: literally our entire show in the last two days.

1757
01:19:10,320 --> 01:19:12,120
Speaker 4: It's nothing is too good to be true because Philip

1758
01:19:12,160 --> 01:19:14,640
Speaker 4: Rivers is out of retirement, so go for broke at

1759
01:19:14,640 --> 01:19:17,680
Speaker 4: this point that just you.

1760
01:19:17,640 --> 01:19:22,360
Speaker 1: Know, you just it's crazy how life and sports is

1761
01:19:22,400 --> 01:19:24,479
Speaker 1: never really more than one or two degrees of separation.

1762
01:19:24,600 --> 01:19:27,000
Speaker 1: Everything seems to come full circle at some point in time.

1763
01:19:27,400 --> 01:19:29,639
Speaker 1: But I would have never in a million years thought

1764
01:19:29,800 --> 01:19:31,839
Speaker 1: other than just the reason you were asking it. Connecting

1765
01:19:31,880 --> 01:19:33,800
Speaker 1: to Indian in the first place is the only reason

1766
01:19:33,880 --> 01:19:36,160
Speaker 1: Signette would have been in my mind. Never would have

1767
01:19:36,200 --> 01:19:38,240
Speaker 1: thought that twenty five years later.

1768
01:19:38,520 --> 01:19:41,160
Speaker 3: Well, you know, like I was a fifth grader, James

1769
01:19:41,160 --> 01:19:44,080
Speaker 3: Boyd was five years old. Yeah, and Kurt Signetti was

1770
01:19:44,120 --> 01:19:47,639
Speaker 3: coaching Philip Rivers. And now in this week in our

1771
01:19:47,680 --> 01:19:51,240
Speaker 3: sports life, they are the two most popular name. I

1772
01:19:51,280 --> 01:19:52,800
Speaker 3: don't know, house you want to describe it. They're the

1773
01:19:52,800 --> 01:19:55,320
Speaker 3: biggest names in our city, yeahow in our state.

1774
01:19:55,640 --> 01:19:58,200
Speaker 4: You know, you talk about it being seven degrees separation

1775
01:19:58,280 --> 01:20:00,960
Speaker 4: from somebody or something like that, it's like three when

1776
01:20:01,000 --> 01:20:03,639
Speaker 4: it comes to professional sports. I feel like everybody's always

1777
01:20:03,680 --> 01:20:06,519
Speaker 4: known somebody, So it is kind of serendipitous that that

1778
01:20:06,720 --> 01:20:07,720
Speaker 4: is overlapping the way it.

1779
01:20:07,720 --> 01:20:09,160
Speaker 2: Has James we let off the show with this.

1780
01:20:09,320 --> 01:20:11,640
Speaker 3: I've never seen Shane Sdyke and his energized at a

1781
01:20:11,640 --> 01:20:13,240
Speaker 3: Wednesday press conferences yesterday.

1782
01:20:13,439 --> 01:20:15,840
Speaker 2: It's it at least has been quite some time.

1783
01:20:15,960 --> 01:20:18,080
Speaker 3: But he didn't like he usually comes in there like,

1784
01:20:19,920 --> 01:20:22,479
Speaker 3: you know, puppy's been hit by a car sort of vibes.

1785
01:20:22,600 --> 01:20:26,160
Speaker 3: It is subdued, it is you know, you know it

1786
01:20:26,200 --> 01:20:29,680
Speaker 3: almost wrote this morning the opponent and then you know

1787
01:20:31,000 --> 01:20:33,519
Speaker 3: about puppies. No, no, no, I was gonna write this in

1788
01:20:33,560 --> 01:20:35,679
Speaker 3: my story and actually did write it, but I edited

1789
01:20:35,680 --> 01:20:37,200
Speaker 3: it out because I was like, that's probably too mean.

1790
01:20:38,320 --> 01:20:43,559
Speaker 3: My original line in the story was Shane, who typically

1791
01:20:43,600 --> 01:20:47,320
Speaker 3: has as much enthusiasm as a stop sign was.

1792
01:20:47,280 --> 01:20:48,599
Speaker 2: And I was like, that's too mean.

1793
01:20:49,360 --> 01:20:51,400
Speaker 1: So why are we talking to the kind that white up?

1794
01:20:54,800 --> 01:20:55,639
Speaker 2: That's a little harsh.

1795
01:20:55,680 --> 01:20:57,479
Speaker 4: But so I went with, you know, saying it was

1796
01:20:57,479 --> 01:21:01,400
Speaker 4: typically stoic, you know, reserve something along those lines.

1797
01:21:01,479 --> 01:21:04,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, reserves subdue none of that. Shout out to my

1798
01:21:04,840 --> 01:21:05,680
Speaker 2: voice saying none of that.

1799
01:21:05,880 --> 01:21:09,360
Speaker 1: Gotta love it. Let's go to the text line right now,

1800
01:21:09,360 --> 01:21:11,360
Speaker 1: two through nine ten seventy you can call in as well.

1801
01:21:11,680 --> 01:21:15,600
Speaker 1: Got the brand new digs here, Gary and Noblesville, like

1802
01:21:15,680 --> 01:21:18,240
Speaker 1: a lot of folks, and this is no shame on anybody,

1803
01:21:18,240 --> 01:21:20,000
Speaker 1: but a lot of people in the text line the

1804
01:21:20,040 --> 01:21:22,559
Speaker 1: last couple of days have been saying, well, what about

1805
01:21:23,120 --> 01:21:25,720
Speaker 1: what about Richardson? What about ar What's going on with him?

1806
01:21:25,800 --> 01:21:27,559
Speaker 1: And he's as far as we know, still not close

1807
01:21:27,600 --> 01:21:29,479
Speaker 1: to being back on the football field, right.

1808
01:21:30,200 --> 01:21:36,880
Speaker 4: So ort, Yeah, part of me was honestly related to

1809
01:21:36,880 --> 01:21:40,160
Speaker 4: see him back on the football field yesterday, not practicing.

1810
01:21:40,400 --> 01:21:41,479
Speaker 2: He's still on injury reserve.

1811
01:21:41,479 --> 01:21:45,400
Speaker 4: We're just seeing him out there, Kevin mimicking the drop backs,

1812
01:21:45,520 --> 01:21:48,879
Speaker 4: wearing the goggles and looking like he could actually move around.

1813
01:21:49,000 --> 01:21:51,160
Speaker 2: Because so much of your recovery from.

1814
01:21:51,000 --> 01:21:53,360
Speaker 4: What I've read online, this isn't like I'm reading you know,

1815
01:21:53,920 --> 01:21:58,280
Speaker 4: fan fiction here, just like medical stuff WebMD. Yeah, literally

1816
01:21:58,320 --> 01:22:01,559
Speaker 4: some of that stuff. When you have apital fracture, you

1817
01:22:01,640 --> 01:22:04,840
Speaker 4: struggle to have the ability to move because of how

1818
01:22:04,960 --> 01:22:07,680
Speaker 4: much force you can put on your body and that

1819
01:22:07,760 --> 01:22:08,759
Speaker 4: reverberates back.

1820
01:22:08,680 --> 01:22:11,320
Speaker 1: Up hold your face together, so you can't.

1821
01:22:11,080 --> 01:22:15,559
Speaker 4: Like go jogging if your face is fractured. So he

1822
01:22:15,840 --> 01:22:17,960
Speaker 4: I did talk to him briefly in the locker room yesterday.

1823
01:22:18,400 --> 01:22:20,040
Speaker 4: I told him that me and him both need haircuts,

1824
01:22:20,080 --> 01:22:22,240
Speaker 4: looking a little rough these days. I'm a lot going on,

1825
01:22:22,360 --> 01:22:24,880
Speaker 4: but he was excited to just be back there in

1826
01:22:24,920 --> 01:22:28,440
Speaker 4: some capacity. And the last thing I'll say is Shane

1827
01:22:28,840 --> 01:22:30,920
Speaker 4: has not ruled him out for the season.

1828
01:22:31,240 --> 01:22:35,640
Speaker 2: So part of me at this point is like, let's.

1829
01:22:35,360 --> 01:22:38,439
Speaker 4: Open Ar's twenty one day window next week and have

1830
01:22:38,560 --> 01:22:40,800
Speaker 4: it be Anthony Richardson and Philip Rivers and Riley Leonard

1831
01:22:40,840 --> 01:22:43,679
Speaker 4: trying to compete for the starting job against the forty

1832
01:22:43,760 --> 01:22:45,000
Speaker 4: nine ers on Monday Night Football.

1833
01:22:45,080 --> 01:22:49,479
Speaker 2: Four games to go. Who starts the most games at

1834
01:22:49,560 --> 01:22:54,000
Speaker 2: quarterback for the Colts rest of the year? Rivers, Leonard, Richardson.

1835
01:22:55,240 --> 01:23:00,960
Speaker 1: Rivers, I'm just gonna be counter and safe. Riley Leonard.

1836
01:23:02,439 --> 01:23:03,599
Speaker 2: And what's going on with our cameras?

1837
01:23:03,600 --> 01:23:06,080
Speaker 4: Man, we got a single shot on Jeff here, you're

1838
01:23:06,080 --> 01:23:06,879
Speaker 4: missing my hands.

1839
01:23:06,680 --> 01:23:08,840
Speaker 2: And say the computers have taken over.

1840
01:23:09,000 --> 01:23:11,920
Speaker 1: The computers are supposed to to adjust all those again,

1841
01:23:12,200 --> 01:23:14,120
Speaker 1: a lot of dialing in over the next week.

1842
01:23:14,000 --> 01:23:16,080
Speaker 2: Or two, Jeff, you said, Leonard.

1843
01:23:16,160 --> 01:23:17,800
Speaker 1: I'll have our own camera soon, James, so you'll be

1844
01:23:17,880 --> 01:23:20,439
Speaker 1: getting up close and personal. But go ahead, you said, Leonard.

1845
01:23:20,439 --> 01:23:22,320
Speaker 2: Aren't they telling us what they think of Leonard right now?

1846
01:23:22,439 --> 01:23:24,760
Speaker 1: They kind of are, But I look, I make a

1847
01:23:24,840 --> 01:23:26,840
Speaker 1: joke out of it, and I want this to work out,

1848
01:23:26,960 --> 01:23:29,200
Speaker 1: and I can see all of the rationale on why

1849
01:23:29,240 --> 01:23:31,800
Speaker 1: they want to do this, and I get where they're

1850
01:23:31,840 --> 01:23:35,760
Speaker 1: coming from. I totally do. But this is why I'm

1851
01:23:35,760 --> 01:23:38,320
Speaker 1: half serious when I say to you, James earlier this morning.

1852
01:23:39,400 --> 01:23:42,240
Speaker 1: If this is going badly and he can't move and

1853
01:23:42,320 --> 01:23:45,320
Speaker 1: he becomes a sitting duck and the velocity is not

1854
01:23:45,439 --> 01:23:47,720
Speaker 1: there that he can make that fifteen yard out and

1855
01:23:47,760 --> 01:23:49,920
Speaker 1: he can't push it downfield at all, to the point

1856
01:23:49,960 --> 01:23:54,040
Speaker 1: where now defenses are just completely stacking the box against

1857
01:23:54,080 --> 01:23:57,720
Speaker 1: against Taylor, What is the hook like, I really am

1858
01:23:57,920 --> 01:24:00,400
Speaker 1: I'm curious. What does the hook look like if it

1859
01:24:00,720 --> 01:24:02,919
Speaker 1: does not work out?

1860
01:24:04,280 --> 01:24:05,240
Speaker 2: I'm not so sure.

1861
01:24:05,960 --> 01:24:07,840
Speaker 1: And I bring all this up because we're not just

1862
01:24:07,880 --> 01:24:09,960
Speaker 1: talking about a guy who's been out for five years

1863
01:24:10,040 --> 01:24:12,599
Speaker 1: and that he's forty four. But when he was thirty

1864
01:24:12,680 --> 01:24:15,320
Speaker 1: nine at the end, we were thinking, maybe he can

1865
01:24:15,360 --> 01:24:16,960
Speaker 1: coax one more year out of that arm. But we

1866
01:24:16,960 --> 01:24:18,799
Speaker 1: had started to have a little bit of a discussion

1867
01:24:18,800 --> 01:24:22,080
Speaker 1: than Adam Wee Kevin about what his long term future

1868
01:24:22,160 --> 01:24:23,960
Speaker 1: was going to be, not just because he was thirty nine,

1869
01:24:23,960 --> 01:24:26,200
Speaker 1: but it looked like he did wear down just a

1870
01:24:26,240 --> 01:24:28,600
Speaker 1: little bit as the season wore along. I don't yeah, I.

1871
01:24:28,600 --> 01:24:31,479
Speaker 3: Mean, pushing the ball vertically is a major question for

1872
01:24:31,560 --> 01:24:35,519
Speaker 3: Sunday and you know, moving forward for however long he plays.

1873
01:24:35,560 --> 01:24:37,599
Speaker 3: In my opinion, like if I'm Alc Pis, I'm thinking, boy,

1874
01:24:37,640 --> 01:24:38,960
Speaker 3: at least I showed out early in the year, and

1875
01:24:38,960 --> 01:24:41,600
Speaker 3: I'm gonna get my money because I can't imagine the

1876
01:24:41,640 --> 01:24:44,120
Speaker 3: opportunities are going to be too abundant down the field

1877
01:24:44,160 --> 01:24:45,200
Speaker 3: for Alec Piers on Sunday.

1878
01:24:45,280 --> 01:24:47,200
Speaker 1: I want the first play from Skimmers to just go

1879
01:24:47,280 --> 01:24:49,240
Speaker 1: for Just send Alec Pierce long and see what you

1880
01:24:49,280 --> 01:24:52,040
Speaker 1: got James, just to tell the defense we're gonna try this.

1881
01:24:53,479 --> 01:24:55,479
Speaker 2: You need some time back there to get it through.

1882
01:24:55,520 --> 01:24:56,920
Speaker 4: So that's another thing I want to think of as

1883
01:24:56,920 --> 01:25:00,760
Speaker 4: far as factors with his game. The offensive line a

1884
01:25:00,760 --> 01:25:02,920
Speaker 4: little bit leaky over the last month or so. I

1885
01:25:02,920 --> 01:25:04,559
Speaker 4: don't think they played at the level that they had

1886
01:25:04,840 --> 01:25:07,240
Speaker 4: to the first eight games when Daniel Jones playing his

1887
01:25:07,240 --> 01:25:07,879
Speaker 4: best football.

1888
01:25:08,360 --> 01:25:11,400
Speaker 2: So what does that look like? How does that.

1889
01:25:12,760 --> 01:25:16,799
Speaker 4: Factor into what Philip Rivers does on Sunday, assuming he starts,

1890
01:25:17,080 --> 01:25:19,559
Speaker 4: because it would be at this point in the week

1891
01:25:19,720 --> 01:25:23,840
Speaker 4: most likely a rookie right tackle and Jalen Travis caught

1892
01:25:23,880 --> 01:25:26,559
Speaker 4: up with him yesterday. He excited about the opportunity, but

1893
01:25:27,479 --> 01:25:30,680
Speaker 4: it's one thing again to think you can do it,

1894
01:25:30,960 --> 01:25:33,920
Speaker 4: but to go out there and do it, it's totally different.

1895
01:25:34,720 --> 01:25:37,320
Speaker 1: I like everyone else, though, I keep saying this over

1896
01:25:37,360 --> 01:25:40,960
Speaker 1: and over. I hope it works out. Can you imagine

1897
01:25:40,960 --> 01:25:43,599
Speaker 1: the story and what we'll be talking about on Monday?

1898
01:25:44,520 --> 01:25:47,559
Speaker 1: And this is a likely scenario too, Kevin, what are

1899
01:25:47,560 --> 01:25:50,680
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers for this first game? Back plays okay and

1900
01:25:50,720 --> 01:25:54,360
Speaker 1: the Colts stay competitive but lose to a really good

1901
01:25:54,400 --> 01:26:00,840
Speaker 1: Seattle team. I don't know, twenty seven, twenty one, when

1902
01:26:00,880 --> 01:26:03,240
Speaker 1: it's all over, now, how are we feeling about things

1903
01:26:03,280 --> 01:26:05,240
Speaker 1: moving forward for the rest of the year and the

1904
01:26:05,360 --> 01:26:07,880
Speaker 1: likely outcome that he plays okay but they still lose.

1905
01:26:08,120 --> 01:26:10,120
Speaker 2: I don't think you're feeling great because it's a loss.

1906
01:26:10,760 --> 01:26:12,240
Speaker 1: I'm not saying feeling great. But this is a really

1907
01:26:12,240 --> 01:26:12,960
Speaker 1: good team.

1908
01:26:12,960 --> 01:26:14,560
Speaker 3: Right, but you got four weeks left. You got to

1909
01:26:14,560 --> 01:26:18,200
Speaker 3: win games again the playoffs. Yeah, you can't have moral victories.

1910
01:26:18,200 --> 01:26:19,720
Speaker 3: I mean, like, yeah, you can sit here and say,

1911
01:26:19,760 --> 01:26:22,360
Speaker 3: Philip Rivers hat tip, you know, the kid doing the

1912
01:26:22,439 --> 01:26:25,759
Speaker 3: respect thing to Derek Jeter. Yeah, yeah, you can go there.

1913
01:26:25,760 --> 01:26:27,799
Speaker 3: But when you're outside of the playoff picture.

1914
01:26:28,160 --> 01:26:29,680
Speaker 2: I mean, if you look at the AFC South right

1915
01:26:29,680 --> 01:26:32,559
Speaker 2: now this week, the Colts are a double digit underdog,

1916
01:26:33,360 --> 01:26:35,759
Speaker 2: the Texans are a double digit favorite, and I believe

1917
01:26:35,760 --> 01:26:38,519
Speaker 2: the Jags are close to a double digit favorite. So

1918
01:26:38,560 --> 01:26:39,360
Speaker 2: if all those.

1919
01:26:39,120 --> 01:26:41,840
Speaker 3: Play out, that means the Colts are going to be

1920
01:26:41,880 --> 01:26:47,360
Speaker 3: even further behind those teams. So you just on December fourteenth,

1921
01:26:47,960 --> 01:26:50,360
Speaker 3: you just can't really celebrate moral victories if you're trying

1922
01:26:50,400 --> 01:26:52,320
Speaker 3: to end the longest playoff drought your franchise has had

1923
01:26:52,320 --> 01:26:53,240
Speaker 3: in thirty years.

1924
01:26:55,720 --> 01:26:57,960
Speaker 1: Curious, you guys have an opportunity to talk to the

1925
01:26:57,960 --> 01:26:59,839
Speaker 1: players one more time today, right on Thursday.

1926
01:27:00,280 --> 01:27:02,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, today, and uh Atona, I'm.

1927
01:27:02,120 --> 01:27:04,160
Speaker 1: Curious to see what their feedback is going to be

1928
01:27:04,200 --> 01:27:07,400
Speaker 1: from wide receivers, especially on how they were feeling, not

1929
01:27:07,560 --> 01:27:09,800
Speaker 1: just what they're rhythm with Philip Rivers, but how's the

1930
01:27:09,800 --> 01:27:11,599
Speaker 1: ball feel when it's coming into their hands?

1931
01:27:11,960 --> 01:27:14,240
Speaker 3: Well, and how does phil Rivers feel right now? I mean,

1932
01:27:14,280 --> 01:27:16,400
Speaker 3: when when is the last I asked us in all seriousness,

1933
01:27:16,439 --> 01:27:18,759
Speaker 3: when's the last time you think Philip Rivers has exerted

1934
01:27:18,840 --> 01:27:23,880
Speaker 3: himself in a physical capacity like he did yesterday five

1935
01:27:23,960 --> 01:27:27,559
Speaker 3: years ago, literally the wild card game against Buffalo.

1936
01:27:27,680 --> 01:27:30,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what I think that would be. Actually, not kidding,

1937
01:27:30,800 --> 01:27:31,559
Speaker 2: I'm not here to say.

1938
01:27:31,640 --> 01:27:32,000
Speaker 1: I don't know.

1939
01:27:32,000 --> 01:27:34,160
Speaker 2: Maybe he's done a triathlon or maybe he's climbed Mount

1940
01:27:34,320 --> 01:27:34,960
Speaker 2: I guess that he.

1941
01:27:35,080 --> 01:27:37,120
Speaker 4: You know, trains a couple guys a couple times a year,

1942
01:27:37,479 --> 01:27:42,040
Speaker 4: and still to my knowledge, throws regularly, well seminar regularly

1943
01:27:42,280 --> 01:27:43,800
Speaker 4: in his backyard and stuff like that.

1944
01:27:43,840 --> 01:27:45,719
Speaker 2: But yes, to your points of life, it's totally different.

1945
01:27:45,800 --> 01:27:49,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, your speed's different, intensity is different, everything's picked up,

1946
01:27:50,000 --> 01:27:51,599
Speaker 1: all right. Coming up at a moment, we will continue

1947
01:27:51,600 --> 01:27:54,519
Speaker 1: our discussion about the Cults coming up against the Seattle Seahawks.

1948

1950
01:28:01,040 --> 01:28:05,240

1951

Speaker 2: How about we grow hair, Indy.

1961
01:28:28,000 --> 01:28:29,920
Speaker 3: I think right now, honestly, we all might be losing

1962
01:28:29,920 --> 01:28:32,280
Speaker 3: our hair a little bit here. The gold standard for

1963
01:28:32,320 --> 01:28:34,800
Speaker 3: hair restoration, that is what we grow hair, Indy.

1964
01:28:34,880 --> 01:28:38,479
Speaker 1: Look a lot going on around here right now, as

1965
01:28:38,520 --> 01:28:40,360
Speaker 1: you know. The Purdue boiler Makers get a win in

1966
01:28:40,400 --> 01:28:43,439
Speaker 1: basketball last night at Mackie A nice job bouncing back

1967

Speaker 1: from the Iowas Tate game. They beat Minnesota. We'll be

1968
01:28:46,040 --> 01:28:47,800
Speaker 1: talking all morning long, and have been talking for the

1969
01:28:47,880 --> 01:28:50,559
Speaker 1: last day or two about Philip Rivers joining the Indianapolis Colts.

1970
01:28:50,560 --> 01:28:53,599
Speaker 1: But everybody around here is an Indiana football fan, Kevin.

1971
01:28:53,720 --> 01:28:56,320
Speaker 1: They're still just kind of riding the high and taking

1972
01:28:56,320 --> 01:28:58,840
Speaker 1: that cloud ride from a big Tin championship win, a

1973
01:28:58,960 --> 01:29:02,120
Speaker 1: continued undef season, and now they're getting ready to play

1974
01:29:02,120 --> 01:29:05,280
Speaker 1: a playoff game at the Rose Bowl on New Year's Day.

1975
01:29:05,320 --> 01:29:09,400
Speaker 1: Is the number one ranked team in the country. Michael

1976
01:29:09,439 --> 01:29:14,120
Speaker 1: and nis Alek or Nyslek covers the team for UH.

1977
01:29:14,360 --> 01:29:17,760
Speaker 1: The indian University Athletics beat at the Herald Times down there,

1978
01:29:17,760 --> 01:29:20,760
Speaker 1: and he has watched this evolution every step of the way,

1979
01:29:20,800 --> 01:29:22,760
Speaker 1: and he's kind enough to join us this morning on

1980
01:29:22,800 --> 01:29:25,599
Speaker 1: the Payless Likers hotline. Michael, thanks so much for being here.

1981
01:29:25,640 --> 01:29:30,200
Speaker 1: We appreciate it. And even when this season started, was

1982
01:29:30,280 --> 01:29:33,479
Speaker 1: being undefeated and being the number one overall seed in

1983
01:29:33,479 --> 01:29:35,880
Speaker 1: the college football playoff? Was that a bridge too far

1984
01:29:35,920 --> 01:29:37,839
Speaker 1: even in your mind at the beginning of the season.

1985
01:29:39,280 --> 01:29:41,640
Speaker 18: Uh, you know you could after what they did last year.

1986
01:29:41,640 --> 01:29:43,840
Speaker 18: I don't think you could rule anything out. I mean,

1987
01:29:44,040 --> 01:29:46,880
Speaker 18: you know, they had that much harder schedule obviously, but

1988
01:29:47,920 --> 01:29:50,160
Speaker 18: everybody kind of thought they brought, you know, a core

1989
01:29:50,200 --> 01:29:54,560
Speaker 18: group of talent, and obviously is the man in charge, uh,

1990
01:29:55,040 --> 01:29:58,200
Speaker 18: you know, as a history of winning. So I guess

1991
01:29:58,240 --> 01:30:00,360
Speaker 18: anything was possible, and it was.

1992
01:30:01,200 --> 01:30:01,360
Speaker 1: Mike.

1993
01:30:01,479 --> 01:30:03,400
Speaker 2: I hear you ask questions on conference calls all the

1994
01:30:03,439 --> 01:30:06,280
Speaker 2: time and people say your last name like me speaking

1995

2004
01:30:23,880 --> 01:30:25,960
Speaker 2: If not, have you ever covered it and do you

2005
01:30:26,000 --> 01:30:29,480
Speaker 2: have any idea like what Saturday will look like. I've

2006
01:30:29,560 --> 01:30:32,559
Speaker 2: never even covered I guess an award show like that.

2007
01:30:33,960 --> 01:30:36,080
Speaker 18: Uh, yeah, No, this is my first time covering it.

2008
01:30:36,160 --> 01:30:38,439
Speaker 18: I had had some colleagues that have covered it in

2009
01:30:38,520 --> 01:30:40,600
Speaker 18: past years and and kind of spoke with them to

2010
01:30:40,640 --> 01:30:43,400
Speaker 18: sort of pick their brain and get kind of a

2011
01:30:43,479 --> 01:30:47,000
Speaker 18: lay of the land. You kind of go uh Friday,

2012
01:30:47,080 --> 01:30:50,599
Speaker 18: and then they have a bunch of you basically talk

2013
01:30:50,720 --> 01:30:54,760
Speaker 18: to the finalists. You have three opportunities to talk to

2014
01:30:54,760 --> 01:30:58,400
Speaker 18: them once on Friday, once before the ceremony on Saturday,

2015
01:30:58,400 --> 01:31:02,800
Speaker 18: and then the winner after the ceremony again on Saturday.

2016
01:31:02,880 --> 01:31:06,360
Speaker 18: You don't media actually isn't allowed to like see the

2017
01:31:06,400 --> 01:31:09,080
Speaker 18: ceremony in person. You stay back at the kind of

2018
01:31:09,080 --> 01:31:12,599
Speaker 18: the media hotel and watch it. It's very limited access.

2019
01:31:12,640 --> 01:31:15,400
Speaker 18: I mean even the schools and the players are granted

2020
01:31:15,560 --> 01:31:18,000
Speaker 18: just a very you know, small number. It's a very

2021
01:31:18,040 --> 01:31:20,840
Speaker 18: sort of intimate, sort of small uh.

2022
01:31:20,880 --> 01:31:21,320
Speaker 5: Setup.

2023
01:31:21,439 --> 01:31:24,320
Speaker 18: So we'll watch it back at the hotel and kind

2024
01:31:24,320 --> 01:31:27,960
Speaker 18: of get ready to watch ask the questions to the winner.

2025
01:31:28,479 --> 01:31:31,519
Speaker 18: I you know, I think Fernando takes it home. But

2026
01:31:31,600 --> 01:31:34,000
Speaker 18: then that's kind of how how it's all set up.

2027
01:31:34,600 --> 01:31:37,000
Speaker 3: What would you say now that you're like a gambling guy.

2028
01:31:37,040 --> 01:31:39,760
Speaker 3: But I'm trying to like equate it to a football game,

2029
01:31:39,880 --> 01:31:42,240
Speaker 3: like I you, Iowa is what I'm coming back to,

2030
01:31:42,360 --> 01:31:45,519
Speaker 3: Like Fernando Mendos, is I you about a touchdown favorite

2031
01:31:45,520 --> 01:31:46,559
Speaker 3: over Diego Pavia?

2032
01:31:46,600 --> 01:31:48,200
Speaker 2: He would be IOWA in this instance.

2033
01:31:48,240 --> 01:31:50,280
Speaker 3: Is that kind of how like you're viewing it from

2034
01:31:50,400 --> 01:31:52,800
Speaker 3: you know, potentially you know, straw polls and all these

2035
01:31:52,840 --> 01:31:55,479
Speaker 3: you know, voting mechanisms that we're seeing here to protect

2036
01:31:55,479 --> 01:31:56,240
Speaker 3: the Heisman winner.

2037
01:31:57,280 --> 01:32:00,880
Speaker 18: Yeah, I mean maybe it's sort of what maybe against

2038
01:32:01,560 --> 01:32:04,000
Speaker 18: Trump Wildby I get almost everybody at home, they were

2039
01:32:04,280 --> 01:32:07,240
Speaker 18: sort of favored by more twenty or more. So maybe

2040
01:32:07,280 --> 01:32:11,040
Speaker 18: it's two touchdown favorites. Mendoza is is probably where I

2041
01:32:11,040 --> 01:32:14,760
Speaker 18: would equate it. You know, it's come down a little bit.

2042
01:32:14,880 --> 01:32:18,120
Speaker 18: I mean before it was like right after like the

2043
01:32:18,439 --> 01:32:20,960
Speaker 18: the game was coming to an end, the Ohio State game,

2044
01:32:21,000 --> 01:32:24,280
Speaker 18: the Big Tenttile game. His odds shot up to minus

2045
01:32:24,280 --> 01:32:26,519
Speaker 18: five thousand. I think the last time I looked it

2046
01:32:26,560 --> 01:32:30,080
Speaker 18: was minus twelve hundred. Diego Pavia is kind of the

2047
01:32:30,400 --> 01:32:33,320
Speaker 18: guy that's kind of lurking. And it's hard to say, obviously,

2048
01:32:33,360 --> 01:32:33,880
Speaker 18: because it's a.

2049
01:32:33,800 --> 01:32:34,799
Speaker 5: Big voting Bachum.

2050
01:32:34,800 --> 01:32:37,879
Speaker 18: I think it's like nine hundred and thirty sixty former

2051
01:32:37,960 --> 01:32:42,360
Speaker 18: Heisman winners or fifty nine former high the Heisman winners.

2052
01:32:42,360 --> 01:32:44,400
Speaker 18: They are still live. One fan vote and the rest

2053
01:32:44,439 --> 01:32:47,960
Speaker 18: are media, and obviously it's media over over the country.

2054
01:32:48,200 --> 01:32:50,479
Speaker 18: There's some regionality to it, you know. The guys that

2055
01:32:50,520 --> 01:32:53,559
Speaker 18: you've seen sort of tend to get the more votes

2056
01:32:53,600 --> 01:32:56,320
Speaker 18: in those areas of the South obviously actually see country,

2057
01:32:56,720 --> 01:32:59,439
Speaker 18: they've seen Diego. Maybe he gets more first place bodes

2058
01:32:59,479 --> 01:33:02,439
Speaker 18: from them. But I just can't see how the large

2059
01:33:02,479 --> 01:33:06,000
Speaker 18: majority of voters are gonna, you know, even if they're

2060
01:33:06,000 --> 01:33:08,519
Speaker 18: not totally familiar with what Fernando did during the season,

2061
01:33:08,600 --> 01:33:09,679
Speaker 18: that big ten title game.

2062
01:33:09,720 --> 01:33:10,839
Speaker 5: I think we'll speak loudly.

2063
01:33:11,720 --> 01:33:15,320
Speaker 4: Michael, I'm sorry, FIU, My mica'shone here in a new studio.

2064
01:33:15,360 --> 01:33:19,400
Speaker 4: Michael'm sorry, thanks taking the time for us and Michael

2065
01:33:19,479 --> 01:33:22,800
Speaker 4: Nislick here for the Herald Times covering IU athletics. How

2066
01:33:22,800 --> 01:33:25,800
Speaker 4: big of a loss is Stephen Daily and just knowing

2067
01:33:25,840 --> 01:33:27,519
Speaker 4: how much he meant to that D line and that

2068
01:33:27,600 --> 01:33:30,320
Speaker 4: defense and the uniqueness of the injury.

2069
01:33:31,720 --> 01:33:32,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, I've been asked.

2070
01:33:32,360 --> 01:33:34,080
Speaker 18: I got this this the other day, just in terms

2071
01:33:34,080 --> 01:33:36,920
Speaker 18: of like you know what the impact would be or

2072
01:33:36,920 --> 01:33:38,840
Speaker 18: do you do you do you worry that you know

2073
01:33:38,840 --> 01:33:40,639
Speaker 18: they won't have anybody to kind of step in because

2074
01:33:40,640 --> 01:33:42,320
Speaker 18: I mean they don't have a ton of experience, right,

2075
01:33:42,760 --> 01:33:45,040
Speaker 18: But I mean I'm at the point where it's Brian Haynes,

2076
01:33:45,080 --> 01:33:47,200
Speaker 18: this other guy, like I'm not questioning him, you know,

2077
01:33:47,320 --> 01:33:50,120
Speaker 18: like what he's done. You know, Kayden Turner stepped in

2078
01:33:50,160 --> 01:33:53,519
Speaker 18: earlier this season the fourth linebackground the team and had

2079
01:33:53,520 --> 01:33:57,160
Speaker 18: an interception against Maryland, right, So it's like this, this

2080
01:33:57,240 --> 01:34:00,720
Speaker 18: is a defense that has you know, Stephen himself is

2081
01:34:00,800 --> 01:34:02,479
Speaker 18: kind of a guy that stepped in. You know, it

2082
01:34:02,600 --> 01:34:05,000
Speaker 18: was splitting time with Kellen Wyatt and then stepped in

2083
01:34:05,040 --> 01:34:07,160
Speaker 18: and was kind of one of the best defenders in

2084
01:34:07,160 --> 01:34:09,680
Speaker 18: the country the last six weeks. So it's like, you know,

2085
01:34:09,920 --> 01:34:12,040
Speaker 18: you don't rule just because of how they've been able

2086
01:34:12,080 --> 01:34:14,320
Speaker 18: to have that. You know, obviously every coach says next

2087
01:34:14,320 --> 01:34:16,800
Speaker 18: man up philosophy, but i mean, really they've lived it

2088
01:34:16,880 --> 01:34:18,960
Speaker 18: the last two years, and anytime they've had an injury,

2089
01:34:19,000 --> 01:34:22,400
Speaker 18: somebody's stepped in, they've still got macalkamara On the other side,

2090
01:34:23,040 --> 01:34:24,680
Speaker 18: Daniel the Duke Way is probably the guy that's going

2091
01:34:24,720 --> 01:34:27,559
Speaker 18: to step in uh there at that spot. I just

2092
01:34:27,680 --> 01:34:31,240
Speaker 18: you know, they they've done such a good job with

2093
01:34:31,360 --> 01:34:33,519
Speaker 18: anybody that's had to step in sort of an emergency

2094
01:34:33,600 --> 01:34:35,920
Speaker 18: role all throughout the season. I mean, even DiAngelo Pond's

2095
01:34:35,960 --> 01:34:39,200
Speaker 18: it was a huge game against Iowa, Rolling Gandy stepped in.

2096
01:34:39,840 --> 01:34:41,680
Speaker 18: U got the job done. And you've just kind of

2097
01:34:41,680 --> 01:34:44,479
Speaker 18: seen an instance after instance of them having a guy

2098
01:34:44,560 --> 01:34:47,000
Speaker 18: come in when they've needed him. Will he be as

2099
01:34:47,040 --> 01:34:49,599
Speaker 18: productive as a stealing Stephen Daly has been the last

2100
01:34:49,600 --> 01:34:51,760
Speaker 18: six weeks. No, that's that's that's probably setting the bar

2101
01:34:51,800 --> 01:34:54,880
Speaker 18: too high, but giving them what they need to get

2102
01:34:54,880 --> 01:34:56,639
Speaker 18: through that game. That's I think where you set where

2103
01:34:56,680 --> 01:34:58,280
Speaker 18: you kind of hope the where you set the mark,

2104
01:34:58,320 --> 01:34:59,200
Speaker 18: and I think they'll meet it.

2105
01:34:59,760 --> 01:35:02,360
Speaker 1: Ye as far as we know, we talked earlier about

2106
01:35:02,360 --> 01:35:04,880
Speaker 1: the big injury and crazy the way it happened. But

2107
01:35:05,720 --> 01:35:08,240
Speaker 1: who we also keep an eye on, is we get

2108
01:35:08,280 --> 01:35:10,759
Speaker 1: a week or two here to rest guys up, anybody

2109
01:35:10,800 --> 01:35:13,280
Speaker 1: else that really needs this time.

2110
01:35:14,560 --> 01:35:15,439
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean they've had they.

2111
01:35:15,400 --> 01:35:17,559
Speaker 18: Had a very small injury report going into the Big

2112
01:35:17,600 --> 01:35:20,120
Speaker 18: ten title game. Brandon Frankie was the only sort of

2113
01:35:20,439 --> 01:35:22,800
Speaker 18: guy that was like questioned out, but so a guy

2114
01:35:22,800 --> 01:35:26,120
Speaker 18: that could come back. He's their kickoff specialist. But I

2115
01:35:26,120 --> 01:35:28,320
Speaker 18: think when you walked around the field after that game,

2116
01:35:28,439 --> 01:35:30,960
Speaker 18: the toll of facing an Ohio State is kind of

2117
01:35:30,960 --> 01:35:34,200
Speaker 18: like the physical part of that game. I mean, everybody

2118
01:35:34,200 --> 01:35:36,479
Speaker 18: in the offensive line was limping, you know, like not

2119
01:35:36,560 --> 01:35:38,840
Speaker 18: obviously not what daily was, but just like beat up

2120
01:35:39,120 --> 01:35:43,000
Speaker 18: and feeling all the fifty sixty snaps they played. I

2121
01:35:43,040 --> 01:35:45,439
Speaker 18: think this is another time, you know, we talked about

2122
01:35:45,439 --> 01:35:47,880
Speaker 18: that off week kind of being well timed before the

2123
01:35:47,880 --> 01:35:49,840
Speaker 18: Purdue game in the Big Ten title game to sort

2124
01:35:49,840 --> 01:35:52,160
Speaker 18: of rest up and get guys on the fence that

2125
01:35:52,200 --> 01:35:54,439
Speaker 18: were kind of you know, dealing with kind of the

2126
01:35:54,760 --> 01:35:57,400
Speaker 18: season's long worth bumps and bruises. I think this is

2127
01:35:57,439 --> 01:36:00,960
Speaker 18: another chance for them to rest up. Any it is

2128
01:36:01,000 --> 01:36:02,960
Speaker 18: just not as deep as sort of the high end

2129
01:36:02,960 --> 01:36:04,160
Speaker 18: teams like Ohio State.

2130
01:36:05,400 --> 01:36:06,639
Speaker 5: You know that they're just they're.

2131
01:36:06,479 --> 01:36:08,439
Speaker 18: Just not yet, and so I think this is a

2132
01:36:08,560 --> 01:36:10,439
Speaker 18: chance for them to rest up and get guys just

2133
01:36:10,439 --> 01:36:12,479
Speaker 18: said that that felt that Ohio State game, that that

2134
01:36:12,560 --> 01:36:16,599
Speaker 18: big tentitle game, and just be in a better spot

2135
01:36:16,640 --> 01:36:18,160
Speaker 18: and I think that that's what they'll they'll use this

2136
01:36:18,200 --> 01:36:21,000
Speaker 18: and that's why they're taking basically the ten days from

2137
01:36:21,040 --> 01:36:23,200
Speaker 18: now until they find out who their opponent is and

2138
01:36:23,240 --> 01:36:25,720
Speaker 18: treating it like an off week rest and recovery.

2139
01:36:25,920 --> 01:36:27,200
Speaker 5: That's kind of what they're focused on.

2140
01:36:27,360 --> 01:36:29,479
Speaker 1: Good stuff. Michael Nilik, thanks so much for joining.

2141
01:36:30,439 --> 01:36:33,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, one more for Michael, because I'm very curious about

2142
01:36:33,280 --> 01:36:37,040
Speaker 4: the Heisman speech uh that I assume Fan Mendoz will

2143
01:36:37,040 --> 01:36:40,600
Speaker 4: be giving here shortly over the weekend. When did you

2144
01:36:40,760 --> 01:36:44,800
Speaker 4: realize that the way he articulates himself is not a

2145
01:36:44,840 --> 01:36:48,680
Speaker 4: bit because for those who are not used to that

2146
01:36:48,800 --> 01:36:51,200
Speaker 4: Fernando MENDOZI experience. I know my father was talking about

2147
01:36:51,240 --> 01:36:53,640
Speaker 4: over the weekend. He was like, who is this like

2148
01:36:53,800 --> 01:36:57,559
Speaker 4: dorky but tough kid, Iu that's doing this thing. How

2149
01:36:57,600 --> 01:36:59,559
Speaker 4: long did it take you out to realize that he

2150
01:36:59,640 --> 01:37:03,600
Speaker 4: can again articulate himself that way but still be this

2151
01:37:03,720 --> 01:37:05,160
Speaker 4: fiery competitor to do on the field.

2152
01:37:06,120 --> 01:37:09,000
Speaker 18: Well, you know, it's funny, like all quarterbacks have, especially

2153
01:37:09,120 --> 01:37:11,000
Speaker 18: ones that have had kind of extra experience, kind of

2154
01:37:11,040 --> 01:37:13,160
Speaker 18: gets to the point where they get very polished, right,

2155
01:37:13,880 --> 01:37:15,479
Speaker 18: And I guess he's sort of been like a fully

2156
01:37:15,520 --> 01:37:20,559
Speaker 18: formed media presidence since it starts like he he looks

2157
01:37:20,600 --> 01:37:22,720
Speaker 18: at the camera no matter like, he doesn't look at you.

2158
01:37:22,760 --> 01:37:24,920
Speaker 18: He looks at what your can't your devices, So he's

2159
01:37:24,960 --> 01:37:27,479
Speaker 18: like looking straight at it. Anybody that asks will turn

2160
01:37:27,520 --> 01:37:29,600
Speaker 18: and look at it. And it's very funny, but I

2161
01:37:29,640 --> 01:37:31,800
Speaker 18: mean it's genuine. It is truly. I've talked to his

2162
01:37:31,880 --> 01:37:34,599
Speaker 18: parents about this. They kind of laugh. A funny story

2163
01:37:34,760 --> 01:37:37,360
Speaker 18: kind of. He was asked about the Heisman earlier this

2164
01:37:37,400 --> 01:37:39,439
Speaker 18: season and he's kind of like, uh, you know, I

2165
01:37:39,439 --> 01:37:41,880
Speaker 18: don't need that. I just really want a national title.

2166
01:37:41,960 --> 01:37:44,320
Speaker 18: That'd be great, but I you know, you know, just

2167
01:37:44,400 --> 01:37:46,559
Speaker 18: that doesn't matter to me as much as as winning

2168
01:37:46,560 --> 01:37:48,120
Speaker 18: a title. And his mom was like, jeez, he just

2169
01:37:48,120 --> 01:37:49,920
Speaker 18: doesn't have to go that far. He doesn't have to.

2170
01:37:51,680 --> 01:37:53,559
Speaker 5: Voters weren't listening, Like he doesn't.

2171
01:37:53,840 --> 01:37:56,720
Speaker 18: He could feel that, but don't say it, Fernando. So like,

2172
01:37:56,800 --> 01:37:59,920
Speaker 18: that's just who he is. That's just kind of his personality.

2173
01:38:00,000 --> 01:38:01,360
Speaker 18: He has so much he kind of wants to go

2174
01:38:01,439 --> 01:38:03,760
Speaker 18: off his chest and spread kind of the credit to

2175
01:38:03,800 --> 01:38:04,520
Speaker 18: his teammates.

2176
01:38:05,160 --> 01:38:06,320
Speaker 5: It's just just how he is.

2177
01:38:06,400 --> 01:38:09,439
Speaker 18: I think you learned pretty quickly that this he was

2178
01:38:09,479 --> 01:38:12,439
Speaker 18: just a little different cat. You know just how he

2179
01:38:12,560 --> 01:38:16,360
Speaker 18: was very just you know, humble, but like at the

2180
01:38:16,360 --> 01:38:18,280
Speaker 18: same time, it's very articulate.

2181
01:38:17,840 --> 01:38:19,400
Speaker 5: And has so much on his mind.

2182
01:38:19,400 --> 01:38:22,880
Speaker 18: I mean, that's that business that cow business degree at work.

2183
01:38:23,200 --> 01:38:24,800
Speaker 18: But he's a very thoughtful kid, and you kind of

2184
01:38:24,840 --> 01:38:27,800
Speaker 18: appreciate that. Especially as a reporter. I'm somebody that takes

2185
01:38:27,840 --> 01:38:30,879
Speaker 18: the you know, really takes it to heart. Answering those questions.

2186
01:38:30,960 --> 01:38:31,600
Speaker 2: Well, I'll tell you what.

2187
01:38:32,200 --> 01:38:34,479
Speaker 4: He might not brag, but I'll brag for him because

2188
01:38:34,479 --> 01:38:35,479
Speaker 4: the dude can play.

2189
01:38:35,680 --> 01:38:37,200
Speaker 5: He can absolutely.

2190
01:38:37,680 --> 01:38:39,920
Speaker 1: Michael, thanks again, We really appreciate you getting up early

2191
01:38:39,960 --> 01:38:41,800
Speaker 1: this morning and joining us. You can read his stuff

2192
01:38:41,800 --> 01:38:43,799
Speaker 1: down at the Harald Times. You can also go online

2193
01:38:43,840 --> 01:38:46,960
Speaker 1: Herald Times online dot com. Check out his coverage of

2194
01:38:47,040 --> 01:38:50,719
Speaker 1: Indiana University. What a dream beat all of a sudden, Michael,

2195
01:38:50,800 --> 01:38:52,480
Speaker 1: what a just a dream beat?

2196
01:38:53,040 --> 01:38:55,120
Speaker 5: Best team in the country, right, go get it man.

2197
01:38:55,200 --> 01:38:55,639
Speaker 1: Have fun?

2198
01:38:56,400 --> 01:38:58,280
Speaker 5: All right, thanks guys anytime.

2199
01:38:57,960 --> 01:38:59,960
Speaker 1: You bet I say that to reports, to have fun,

2200
01:39:00,000 --> 01:39:03,280
Speaker 1: because when you're covering a team and they're doing well,

2201
01:39:04,160 --> 01:39:06,840
Speaker 1: it's easier access to people. Everybody's in a good mood.

2202
01:39:06,960 --> 01:39:09,400
Speaker 1: They don't duck you as much. There's just it's it's

2203
01:39:09,439 --> 01:39:13,120
Speaker 1: just a much better environment, isn't it, James. I've always

2204
01:39:13,120 --> 01:39:13,680
Speaker 1: found it to be.

2205
01:39:14,320 --> 01:39:15,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure, I would think so.

2206
01:39:16,160 --> 01:39:19,600
Speaker 1: Yeah. In the meantime, Hoosiers, like I said, they have

2207
01:39:19,640 --> 01:39:22,280
Speaker 1: a chance to watch some football, and there'll be a

2208
01:39:22,479 --> 01:39:26,240
Speaker 1: key on Alabama Oklahoma. Have you seen them play very

2209
01:39:26,320 --> 01:39:29,200
Speaker 1: much this year? Seen Oklahoma about a half, maybe one

2210
01:39:29,240 --> 01:39:32,400
Speaker 1: and a half games, Alabama probably seen twice. Watch them

2211
01:39:32,439 --> 01:39:34,719
Speaker 1: a little bit in their their championship game against Georgia

2212
01:39:34,760 --> 01:39:37,080
Speaker 1: where they just didn't look good at all. But have

2213
01:39:37,120 --> 01:39:37,880
Speaker 1: you seen much of them?

2214
01:39:38,000 --> 01:39:39,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, Oklahoma's offense terrible.

2215
01:39:40,000 --> 01:39:43,160
Speaker 3: Alabama really struggled as of late, particularly running the football.

2216
01:39:43,200 --> 01:39:45,120
Speaker 3: I know they've been banged up, so how much will

2217
01:39:45,120 --> 01:39:47,240
Speaker 3: a little bit of time off help them?

2218
01:39:47,240 --> 01:39:48,400
Speaker 2: But I expect I.

2219
01:39:48,320 --> 01:39:50,559
Speaker 3: Haven't looked at, you know, an over under anything like that,

2220
01:39:50,600 --> 01:39:53,000
Speaker 3: but I would expect this to be a low scoring game.

2221
01:39:53,040 --> 01:39:55,400
Speaker 3: And again that's kind of the benefit I think of.

2222
01:39:55,600 --> 01:39:58,640
Speaker 3: You know what opponent you could see for Indiana in

2223
01:39:58,680 --> 01:40:03,360
Speaker 3: that quarterfinal game. I don't envision a high octane offense. Yeah,

2224
01:40:03,360 --> 01:40:05,080
Speaker 3: I mean the over unders forty and a half. You

2225
01:40:05,120 --> 01:40:07,519
Speaker 3: look at the other playoff games fifty one and a

2226
01:40:07,560 --> 01:40:09,720
Speaker 3: half Miamia and m fifty six and a half two

2227
01:40:09,800 --> 01:40:14,120
Speaker 3: lane Mississippi. Oregon's at fifty so expecting a low scoring

2228
01:40:14,160 --> 01:40:17,000
Speaker 3: affair and you know, without Stephen Daily, I think you

2229
01:40:17,000 --> 01:40:18,320
Speaker 3: know that could eight.

2230
01:40:18,360 --> 01:40:20,760
Speaker 1: I you in that all right? And also coming up

2231
01:40:20,800 --> 01:40:24,519
Speaker 1: on Sunday afternoon, of course the Seattle Seahawks. How crazy

2232
01:40:24,560 --> 01:40:26,840
Speaker 1: is We've hardly even spoken about the Seahawks because it's

2233
01:40:26,880 --> 01:40:30,080
Speaker 1: all been about the integration of you know what, Daniel

2234
01:40:30,160 --> 01:40:33,320
Speaker 1: Jones being hurt, Philip Rivers, and now we find out

2235
01:40:33,360 --> 01:40:37,360
Speaker 1: you say that Ryther Leonard practiced fully. So this really

2236
01:40:37,560 --> 01:40:39,720
Speaker 1: is a statement when you look at what people do

2237
01:40:39,760 --> 01:40:43,240
Speaker 1: and not what they say. They don't like their quarterback situation.

2238
01:40:43,280 --> 01:40:45,800
Speaker 1: They they wouldn't out and they would not have gone

2239
01:40:45,800 --> 01:40:48,400
Speaker 1: out and gotten a guy five years removed from the

2240
01:40:48,520 --> 01:40:50,880
Speaker 1: NFL at the age of forty four with a grand side.

2241
01:40:51,040 --> 01:40:52,960
Speaker 3: I think Chaine Second felt like you need a juice

2242
01:40:53,960 --> 01:40:56,880
Speaker 3: and Philip Rivers as an aura. Philip Rivers brings energy,

2243
01:40:57,840 --> 01:40:59,640
Speaker 3: and I think that's what the Colts are opting for.

2244
01:41:00,000 --> 01:41:01,840
Speaker 3: I said it earlier. I think if Philip Rivers was

2245
01:41:02,640 --> 01:41:06,320
Speaker 3: you know, insert your accomplished veteran quarterback here. I used

2246
01:41:06,320 --> 01:41:09,200
Speaker 3: Matt Ryan as an example. I know, Matt Ryan might

2247
01:41:09,120 --> 01:41:09,400
Speaker 3: not be.

2248
01:41:09,320 --> 01:41:11,200
Speaker 2: The best one because he actually played for the Colts,

2249
01:41:11,200 --> 01:41:12,879
Speaker 2: but let's imagine he didn't.

2250
01:41:13,479 --> 01:41:16,800
Speaker 3: I don't know if you were to make such a move,

2251
01:41:16,880 --> 01:41:19,800
Speaker 3: Like I think the fact that Rivers is who he

2252
01:41:20,040 --> 01:41:22,439
Speaker 3: is and has a connection to Styken, I mean, that's

2253
01:41:22,520 --> 01:41:25,760
Speaker 3: I think that's rather obvious to people. But you know,

2254
01:41:25,840 --> 01:41:27,800
Speaker 3: Philip said it in as press conference yesterday, called his

2255
01:41:27,840 --> 01:41:30,240
Speaker 3: oldest son, Gunner, the quarterback on the high school team

2256
01:41:30,240 --> 01:41:32,479
Speaker 3: he coaches, and said, Gunner, here's one of the calls

2257
01:41:32,479 --> 01:41:34,840
Speaker 3: in the play sheet for Sunday. And Gunner was like,

2258
01:41:34,880 --> 01:41:36,720
Speaker 3: we called that in the semi final game the other night.

2259
01:41:37,320 --> 01:41:40,320
Speaker 2: You know what, I want to ask so badly? Did

2260
01:41:40,320 --> 01:41:43,599
Speaker 2: it work? So they lose the semi final game.

2261
01:41:43,640 --> 01:41:45,040
Speaker 1: They lost the semi final.

2262
01:41:45,200 --> 01:41:47,160
Speaker 4: That's one factor that people were throwing out there is

2263
01:41:47,200 --> 01:41:50,760
Speaker 4: like I think they would have maybe just finished up

2264
01:41:50,760 --> 01:41:51,360
Speaker 4: their season.

2265
01:41:51,439 --> 01:41:52,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's like a week and a half

2266
01:41:52,720 --> 01:41:54,519
Speaker 2: ago was the semifinal game exactly.

2267
01:41:54,560 --> 01:41:56,439
Speaker 4: But you know how much of that was a factor

2268
01:41:56,479 --> 01:41:59,640
Speaker 4: in whether or not you take this series a.

2269
01:41:59,760 --> 01:42:00,759
Speaker 2: High ranked recruit.

2270
01:42:00,840 --> 01:42:03,120
Speaker 3: For those that you know have not been keeping up

2271
01:42:03,120 --> 01:42:05,040
Speaker 3: to date with the Christmas card of the River's family,

2272
01:42:05,760 --> 01:42:08,080
Speaker 3: he is big Christmas car Big Christmas. You might need

2273
01:42:08,120 --> 01:42:11,240
Speaker 3: an eight and a half by eleven. He is a

2274
01:42:11,360 --> 01:42:15,080
Speaker 3: very accomplished poster size junior quarterback here. Yeah, like one

2275
01:42:15,080 --> 01:42:18,479
Speaker 3: of these TV screens we have in here, Mark, So yeah,

2276
01:42:18,520 --> 01:42:20,400
Speaker 3: you know that's another part of the story.

2277
01:42:20,439 --> 01:42:22,480
Speaker 2: Seven girls, three boys, and a grandson.

2278
01:42:22,840 --> 01:42:25,120
Speaker 3: That's the life for Philip Rivers, along with trying not

2279
01:42:25,200 --> 01:42:27,360
Speaker 3: to get killed by the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday, who

2280
01:42:27,840 --> 01:42:29,240
Speaker 3: have not a lot of touchdown in two weeks.

2281
01:42:29,360 --> 01:42:31,519
Speaker 1: That's just one more aspect of this whole thing.

2282
01:42:32,400 --> 01:42:34,920
Speaker 2: They're trying to smoke some bird out there in Seattle.

2283
01:42:35,120 --> 01:42:37,200
Speaker 1: But there's one more thing about this, and you bring

2284
01:42:37,320 --> 01:42:40,320
Speaker 1: up another level. Can you imagine if this Disney movie

2285
01:42:40,240 --> 01:42:43,040
Speaker 1: gets pulled off and he has success, it wouldn't have

2286
01:42:43,080 --> 01:42:45,280
Speaker 1: been Maybe it wouldn't have even been possible had been

2287
01:42:45,520 --> 01:42:48,080
Speaker 1: playing first A championship this week.

2288
01:42:48,880 --> 01:42:50,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was laying out. I couldn't remember if there

2289
01:42:50,720 --> 01:42:51,280
Speaker 2: season ended.

2290
01:42:51,400 --> 01:42:53,439
Speaker 1: It might have been last week like most most.

2291
01:42:53,360 --> 01:42:57,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, saying I'd also like to date Margot Robbie too,

2292
01:42:57,120 --> 01:42:59,719
Speaker 4: if that's possible in the sky.

2293
01:43:00,120 --> 01:43:02,439
Speaker 1: Right now, the idea of Philip River winning a game

2294
01:43:02,479 --> 01:43:06,120
Speaker 1: in the NFL is a lot higher than your meeting Mars.

2295
01:43:06,400 --> 01:43:07,880
Speaker 2: Probably it probably is.

2296
01:43:09,439 --> 01:43:13,559
Speaker 1: Speaks with her as she would Rollerrize and say good luck.

2297
01:43:13,560 --> 01:43:15,439
Speaker 2: She'd probably say take him off my hands. He's your

2298
01:43:15,479 --> 01:43:16,000
Speaker 2: problem now.

2299
01:43:17,960 --> 01:43:22,360
Speaker 1: Ah man, it just the this story just gets you

2300
01:43:22,400 --> 01:43:25,080
Speaker 1: bring stuff up. It gets juicier and juice here all

2301
01:43:25,120 --> 01:43:26,680
Speaker 1: the way. See what I did there, Kevin.

2302
01:43:26,800 --> 01:43:29,599
Speaker 2: Is Philip Rivers? Is savvy vett or is he old?

2303
01:43:31,320 --> 01:43:33,960
Speaker 1: Can I tell you after the like the first quarter.

2304
01:43:34,360 --> 01:43:36,200
Speaker 2: I'm gonna tell you right now. You know how I

2305
01:43:36,240 --> 01:43:36,840
Speaker 2: feel about this.

2306
01:43:37,120 --> 01:43:38,719
Speaker 4: And as the guy who I was, I was told

2307
01:43:38,880 --> 01:43:40,639
Speaker 4: I was called old for the first time in my life.

2308
01:43:41,240 --> 01:43:45,200
Speaker 4: Going to the jim irse Ymca checked in again thirtieth birthday,

2309
01:43:45,240 --> 01:43:46,839
Speaker 4: they told me you were no longer a young adult

2310
01:43:47,720 --> 01:43:49,080
Speaker 4: updated account, You're an adult now.

2311
01:43:49,080 --> 01:43:50,439
Speaker 2: I was like, oh boy, I'm old.

2312
01:43:51,360 --> 01:43:54,759
Speaker 4: He's old. He's old. I don't think this will go well,

2313
01:43:55,080 --> 01:43:57,519
Speaker 4: but I'm here for the theatrics. If he does go well, great.

2314
01:43:57,800 --> 01:43:59,720
Speaker 4: But if you're asking me right now, do I think

2315
01:43:59,720 --> 01:44:01,360
Speaker 4: he's the wily old veteran?

2316
01:44:02,560 --> 01:44:06,200
Speaker 2: No, this ain't the YMCA. Yeah, And I'm gonna sits

2317
01:44:06,240 --> 01:44:07,120
Speaker 2: the best thing in the world.

2318
01:44:07,320 --> 01:44:09,320
Speaker 3: I'm gonna say what I said earlier in the show,

2319
01:44:09,360 --> 01:44:11,560
Speaker 3: and I've said it now several times. To continue the

2320
01:44:11,640 --> 01:44:15,439
Speaker 3: YMCA analogy, James, he looked like the guy that had

2321
01:44:15,439 --> 01:44:17,559
Speaker 3: the New Year's resolution of trying to lose weight walking

2322
01:44:17,600 --> 01:44:21,439
Speaker 3: into the YMCA on January tewod that's what he looked

2323
01:44:21,479 --> 01:44:22,200
Speaker 3: like yesterday to me.

2324
01:44:22,520 --> 01:44:24,160
Speaker 2: I mean, not that Philip Rivers has ever been.

2325
01:44:24,200 --> 01:44:25,240
Speaker 1: Would you say pudgy?

2326
01:44:25,760 --> 01:44:28,559
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would say he's uh, he's Tim Allen trying

2327
01:44:28,560 --> 01:44:29,520
Speaker 3: to save Christmas.

2328
01:44:30,600 --> 01:44:31,519
Speaker 5: There you go, I.

2329
01:44:31,479 --> 01:44:35,360
Speaker 1: Did it again. Oops, you did it again. Mark Dyton,

2330
01:44:35,439 --> 01:44:35,680
Speaker 1: right there?

2331
01:44:35,680 --> 01:44:37,840
Speaker 2: What do you think witch again? I bring that up

2332
01:44:38,800 --> 01:44:41,840
Speaker 2: in all seriousness of where is he at? Cardio wise?

2333
01:44:42,439 --> 01:44:45,320
Speaker 3: Like what happens if the Colts get on a ten

2334
01:44:45,360 --> 01:44:47,040
Speaker 3: play two minute drive on Sunday.

2335
01:44:47,800 --> 01:44:50,519
Speaker 1: Riding the life cycle for twenty minutes every morning? Let's go, so.

2336
01:44:50,800 --> 01:44:53,759
Speaker 6: Where a golf cart go from drive to drive?

2337
01:44:54,320 --> 01:44:56,759
Speaker 2: Where is he at in in that environment?

2338
01:44:56,840 --> 01:44:58,960
Speaker 3: You know it's what gonna be forty five degrees and

2339
01:44:59,000 --> 01:45:03,360
Speaker 3: probably spitting rain. I mean, that's not ideal ideal football conditions,

2340
01:45:03,360 --> 01:45:05,160
Speaker 3: I would think for the forty four year old quarterbacks.

2341
01:45:05,200 --> 01:45:06,960
Speaker 3: So I think these are all questions the Colts have

2342
01:45:07,000 --> 01:45:10,320
Speaker 3: to seriously weigh. But again right now, Every indication I've

2343
01:45:10,320 --> 01:45:12,240
Speaker 3: gotten the last twenty four hours is it's gonna be

2344
01:45:12,320 --> 01:45:14,280
Speaker 3: uncle Phil Grunkle Phil coming up Sunday.

2345
01:45:15,000 --> 01:45:18,360
Speaker 1: Everything, you know, everything you've observed, everything you've watched about,

2346
01:45:19,040 --> 01:45:20,840
Speaker 1: you know, statistic with the Seahawks and some of the

2347
01:45:20,880 --> 01:45:22,920
Speaker 1: games that they've played, and watching the Colts all year long,

2348
01:45:22,960 --> 01:45:26,360
Speaker 1: and now Philip Rivers coming back, Like it's almost impossible

2349
01:45:26,400 --> 01:45:28,120
Speaker 1: to say, but what do you think is the most

2350
01:45:28,479 --> 01:45:31,640
Speaker 1: likely Like, what's the line look like at the end

2351
01:45:31,640 --> 01:45:35,080
Speaker 1: of that game for Philip Rivers? What's the most likely outcome?

2352
01:45:35,120 --> 01:45:35,360
Speaker 5: There?

2353
01:45:35,840 --> 01:45:37,559
Speaker 1: Are we talking how many times are they willing to

2354
01:45:37,560 --> 01:45:39,320
Speaker 1: put in his hands and have him throw it? To

2355
01:45:39,360 --> 01:45:42,200
Speaker 1: start with? Does he throw the ball twenty five times?

2356
01:45:42,280 --> 01:45:42,479
Speaker 5: Yeah?

2357
01:45:42,520 --> 01:45:44,479
Speaker 3: You know, I know Jack dol brought it up yesterday,

2358
01:45:44,560 --> 01:45:49,000
Speaker 3: like could they go kind of quick tempo to start

2359
01:45:49,040 --> 01:45:52,120
Speaker 3: the game and just let Philip, you know, just really

2360
01:45:52,200 --> 01:45:55,400
Speaker 3: rhythm manage the operation of the line of scrimmage. Now again,

2361
01:45:55,439 --> 01:45:57,840
Speaker 3: when you say quick tempo, then obviously okay, where's yeah

2362
01:45:57,840 --> 01:46:01,200
Speaker 3: cardio wise, But you know, sometimes you see quick tempo

2363
01:46:01,280 --> 01:46:04,680
Speaker 3: and it's simply just hey, let's try and keep the

2364
01:46:04,720 --> 01:46:06,160
Speaker 3: defenses eleven on the field.

2365
01:46:06,200 --> 01:46:08,719
Speaker 2: Don't let them sub we'll get the line of scrimmage.

2366
01:46:08,760 --> 01:46:10,840
Speaker 3: And you know, Philip I brought this up a few

2367
01:46:10,840 --> 01:46:12,680
Speaker 3: weeks ago when the play clock ran out and the

2368
01:46:12,680 --> 01:46:15,519
Speaker 3: Colts got screwed. Philip Rivers is the king of milk

2369
01:46:15,520 --> 01:46:18,360
Speaker 3: and the play clock. He wants to get every single

2370
01:46:18,439 --> 01:46:20,639
Speaker 3: tell and read on an opposing defense.

2371
01:46:20,680 --> 01:46:22,519
Speaker 2: So again, could you muddle huddle?

2372
01:46:22,600 --> 01:46:25,800
Speaker 3: You know, Peyton did this a ton and you know,

2373
01:46:26,800 --> 01:46:29,559
Speaker 3: do the no huddle thing, but obviously you would play

2374
01:46:29,600 --> 01:46:30,479
Speaker 3: out the whole play clock.

2375
01:46:30,680 --> 01:46:32,960
Speaker 2: Is that something that they try to explore.

2376
01:46:33,640 --> 01:46:35,960
Speaker 1: Well, we will find out Sunday afternoon. A reminder that

2377
01:46:36,000 --> 01:46:38,280
Speaker 1: you'll hear all of that game in its entirety on

2378
01:46:38,400 --> 01:46:41,519
Speaker 1: ninety seven point one Hank FM on Sunday afternoon, because

2379
01:46:41,520 --> 01:46:44,680
Speaker 1: we'll have a Pacers game during that broadcast window here

2380
01:46:44,680 --> 01:46:47,360
Speaker 1: at ninety three five and one seven. For everything else

2381
01:46:47,400 --> 01:46:50,280
Speaker 1: that's happening right here right now, let's check it down.

2382
01:46:51,400 --> 01:46:54,639
Speaker 9: The morning checkdown on ninety sweet five and one oh

2383
01:46:54,720 --> 01:46:56,040
Speaker 9: seven five fan.

2384
01:46:56,360 --> 01:46:58,560
Speaker 1: As I mentioned a month ago, Sunday afternoon, four to

2385
01:46:58,600 --> 01:47:02,639
Speaker 1: twenty five in Seattle, James Boyd, the Indianapolis Colts still

2386
01:47:02,640 --> 01:47:04,800
Speaker 1: fighting for their playoff lives. They are eight and five

2387
01:47:04,880 --> 01:47:08,800
Speaker 1: on the outside looking in currently in the AFC, And

2388
01:47:08,880 --> 01:47:13,400
Speaker 1: who is the starting quarterback Sunday afternoon for the Indianapolis Colts.

2389
01:47:13,520 --> 01:47:17,280
Speaker 4: I gotta find my cane. It's grab hoop Phil graandpap

2390
01:47:17,320 --> 01:47:20,120
Speaker 4: Philip Rivers. I think we'll be starting that game Sunday

2391
01:47:20,120 --> 01:47:23,280
Speaker 4: in Seattle, all right, And further injury updates.

2392
01:47:23,479 --> 01:47:26,600
Speaker 1: We've been talking about Phil and the quarterback situation. It

2393
01:47:26,640 --> 01:47:29,320
Speaker 1: looked like Riley Leonard was full go yesterday at practice.

2394
01:47:29,320 --> 01:47:31,040
Speaker 1: What else did we learn about other players?

2395
01:47:31,200 --> 01:47:33,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, the best news to for is Buckner back to

2396
01:47:33,120 --> 01:47:34,360
Speaker 3: practice first time in a month.

2397
01:47:35,120 --> 01:47:38,559
Speaker 2: He was was he limited? James? Yes, Buckner, he was limited?

2398
01:47:38,600 --> 01:47:41,360
Speaker 2: And then no Sauce Gardner. Right, So no Sauce Gardner,

2399
01:47:41,439 --> 01:47:42,040
Speaker 2: no Bradon Smith.

2400
01:47:42,040 --> 01:47:44,799
Speaker 3: Those are probably the two big names on the DNP.

2401
01:47:45,160 --> 01:47:47,599
Speaker 2: So I just go over everything. We'll see if Buckner

2402
01:47:47,640 --> 01:47:48,280
Speaker 2: can give it a go.

2403
01:47:48,479 --> 01:47:50,439
Speaker 3: You know, most times I would say guys that have

2404
01:47:50,479 --> 01:47:53,719
Speaker 3: missed a month month plus need multiple weeks. But Buckner

2405
01:47:53,800 --> 01:47:56,439
Speaker 3: is different, and he plays a position you could rotate at,

2406
01:47:56,680 --> 01:47:58,200
Speaker 3: you know, and only keep him out there for what

2407
01:47:58,360 --> 01:48:01,760
Speaker 3: like third downs or passport situation. So we'll monitor that.

2408
01:48:02,160 --> 01:48:04,840
Speaker 3: But as James said, no Sauce Gardner. With Mooney Ward

2409
01:48:04,880 --> 01:48:08,320
Speaker 3: going on injured reserve, you're down to likely Jalen Jones

2410
01:48:08,360 --> 01:48:11,400
Speaker 3: and Makai Blackman flanking Kenny Moore the second at corner.

2411
01:48:11,680 --> 01:48:13,959
Speaker 3: And that's going up against the best receiver in football

2412
01:48:14,400 --> 01:48:18,000
Speaker 3: in Jackson Smith and Jigba. And then offensively, it's the

2413
01:48:18,160 --> 01:48:20,800
Speaker 3: rare offensive line shake up. That offensive line has been

2414
01:48:20,960 --> 01:48:24,000
Speaker 3: durable like no other this season. Thirteen games in the

2415
01:48:24,080 --> 01:48:26,960
Speaker 3: end of the season, they have only needed a sixth

2416
01:48:27,000 --> 01:48:30,439
Speaker 3: offensive lineman one time. But it's looking like it'll be

2417
01:48:30,520 --> 01:48:34,800
Speaker 3: rookie Jalen Travis in for the injured Braden Smith. So

2418
01:48:35,160 --> 01:48:37,880
Speaker 3: Philip Rivers potentially dealing with a rookie at right tackle.

2419
01:48:38,080 --> 01:48:40,720
Speaker 1: All right, keep it tuned for the latest information all day,

2420
01:48:40,720 --> 01:48:42,400
Speaker 1: all week here at ninety three five one O seven

2421
01:48:42,400 --> 01:48:46,240
Speaker 1: to five college basketball. Last night, I'm gonna lead with yours, Kevin.

2422
01:48:46,240 --> 01:48:48,120
Speaker 1: I told you I was gonna be respectful, nice moving

2423
01:48:48,160 --> 01:48:50,080
Speaker 1: forward after you're gonna say the league score plays for

2424
01:48:50,120 --> 01:48:53,400
Speaker 1: Notre Dame like Notre Dame eighty sixty five over Idaho.

2425
01:48:53,760 --> 01:48:57,360
Speaker 1: Four players comfortably in double figures for Notre Dame. Jyaln

2426
01:48:57,400 --> 01:49:02,360
Speaker 1: Harrilson had twenty points Garrisundra had had a nice he

2427
01:49:02,520 --> 01:49:05,080
Speaker 1: played nineteen minutes as a starter. But the other guys

2428
01:49:05,080 --> 01:49:09,200
Speaker 1: that get double figures, Carson Tout had nineteen called certa.

2429
01:49:09,040 --> 01:49:11,040
Speaker 2: No way here Sundro was in double figure.

2430
01:49:10,880 --> 01:49:13,760
Speaker 1: Right, No, he wasn't. He played nineteen minutes. Brydon Shrewsbury

2431
01:49:13,760 --> 01:49:17,920
Speaker 1: had twenty nine minutes played in fourteen points, playing really

2432
01:49:17,920 --> 01:49:20,160
Speaker 1: well from behind the arc four for seven last I

2433
01:49:20,160 --> 01:49:22,720
Speaker 1: saw like maybe three minutes of highlights last night, and

2434
01:49:22,800 --> 01:49:23,360
Speaker 1: we're gonna.

2435
01:49:23,200 --> 01:49:24,880
Speaker 2: Have to educate you more. On the Irish. You've been

2436
01:49:24,920 --> 01:49:27,679
Speaker 2: a little, a little sparse to say the least.

2437
01:49:27,720 --> 01:49:32,679
Speaker 1: Here I yes, some yes, I'm just gonna go there. Meanwhile,

2438
01:49:33,000 --> 01:49:36,760
Speaker 1: we've got the Indiana Hoosiers off until Saturday, will play

2439
01:49:36,800 --> 01:49:40,479
Speaker 1: in Lexington against Kentucky. This has not been what Kentucky

2440
01:49:40,479 --> 01:49:43,280
Speaker 1: fans and Mark Pope certainly have been looking for from

2441
01:49:43,280 --> 01:49:44,439
Speaker 1: the wildfann or this.

01:49:44,439 --> 01:49:48,679
Speaker 3: Year, I you sports fan, Fernanda Mendoza wins the Heisman Trophy.

01:50:05,360 --> 01:50:09,040
Speaker 2: Aren't you imagine saying that, I U Kentucky one possession

2451
01:50:09,080 --> 01:50:11,920

Speaker 2: I was there. That was a great atmosphere. Imagine saying that.

2457
01:50:22,080 --> 01:50:24,479
Speaker 1: I can't. It's hard to even wrap your brain around.

2458
01:50:24,600 --> 01:50:26,439
Speaker 2: But yes, Kentucky's been very bad. Their best win this

2459
01:50:26,520 --> 01:50:27,120
Speaker 2: year is Valpo.

2460

2465
01:50:45,520 --> 01:50:48,600
Speaker 1: margin of victory seventeen points. That's the worst beatdown the

2466
01:50:48,640 --> 01:50:51,720
Speaker 1: Suns have ever had in franchise history. And they're just

2467
01:50:51,720 --> 01:50:54,080
Speaker 1: doing it night after night after night. They're twenty four

2468
01:50:54,160 --> 01:50:54,639
Speaker 1: and one.

2469
01:50:56,800 --> 01:50:59,000
Speaker 4: They're the first team I believe to start twenty four

2470
01:50:59,040 --> 01:51:03,320
Speaker 4: to one since the seventy three and nine Warriors. That

2471
01:51:03,560 --> 01:51:05,720
Speaker 4: is remarkable, and I feel like it's honestly not that

2472
01:51:05,960 --> 01:51:07,800
Speaker 4: talked about. That's how dominant they've been.

2473
01:51:08,200 --> 01:51:10,240
Speaker 1: Spurs beat the Lakers for the other spot there one

2474
01:51:10,320 --> 01:51:13,080
Speaker 1: thirty two to one nineteen. So you're final four. Pretty

2475
01:51:13,120 --> 01:51:15,200
Speaker 1: good this year for the NBA Cup.

2476
01:51:15,280 --> 01:51:18,320
Speaker 3: Kevin, Yeah, you know, I was thinking back yesterday to

2477
01:51:18,360 --> 01:51:20,720
Speaker 3: win the Pacers were in that quarterfinal game inside of

2478
01:51:20,720 --> 01:51:23,040
Speaker 3: Gamebridge Field House against the Celtics a few years ago.

2479
01:51:23,240 --> 01:51:24,519
Speaker 2: That was an awesome game.

2480
01:51:24,720 --> 01:51:27,519
Speaker 3: Like we don't talk about regular season NBA games very often,

2481
01:51:27,560 --> 01:51:31,240
Speaker 3: but Pacer Celtics a couple of Decembers ago inside of

2482
01:51:31,280 --> 01:51:32,720
Speaker 3: that building. I thought was kind of one of the

2483
01:51:32,760 --> 01:51:35,800
Speaker 3: big like, oh wow, this young Pacers score might have

2484
01:51:35,880 --> 01:51:38,479
Speaker 3: something here. That was pre Pascal Siakam. I was still

2485
01:51:38,520 --> 01:51:42,240
Speaker 3: Buddy Healed and Bruce Brown and some of those Pacers

2486
01:51:42,240 --> 01:51:44,439
Speaker 3: on that team. So definitely got me thinking about that

2487
01:51:44,479 --> 01:51:47,479
Speaker 3: Pacers sixers by the way tomorrow and then all of

2488
01:51:47,479 --> 01:51:48,799
Speaker 3: the Wizards on Sunday afternoon.

2489
01:51:49,120 --> 01:51:51,360
Speaker 1: All right, that's what's happening in the world of sports.

2490
01:51:51,400 --> 01:51:53,280
Speaker 1: Anything else you want to throw in there other than

2491
01:51:53,320 --> 01:51:54,920
Speaker 1: do you want to talk Michigan football at all. It's

2492
01:51:54,960 --> 01:51:56,599
Speaker 1: your own more No.

2493
01:51:56,640 --> 01:51:58,719
Speaker 2: Really are It's bizarre real quick.

2494
01:51:59,160 --> 01:52:02,640
Speaker 4: He was detained, well, he was fired at first he

2495
01:52:02,760 --> 01:52:05,559
Speaker 4: scare from Michigan. They say he is alleged to have

2496
01:52:05,600 --> 01:52:09,000
Speaker 4: had an inappropriate relationship with the staffer. And then later

2497
01:52:09,120 --> 01:52:12,519
Speaker 4: on he was detained by the police. So very strange

2498
01:52:12,560 --> 01:52:15,559
Speaker 4: situation there, and I'm sure more details will come out,

2499
01:52:15,600 --> 01:52:17,559
Speaker 4: but prayers were all involved.

2500
01:52:18,200 --> 01:52:20,040
Speaker 1: All right, that's what t happening in the world of sports.

2501
01:52:20,200 --> 01:52:23,320
Speaker 1: The one the only Jason Hammer stops by for your

2502
01:52:23,360 --> 01:52:25,439
Speaker 1: other kind of juice, Kevin, You ready for that? Since

2503
01:52:25,439 --> 01:52:28,479
Speaker 1: that's the word? Man, oh man, oh man, We are

2504
01:52:28,520 --> 01:52:32,599
Speaker 1: good to go. Brand new studio here. Jason Hammer's already

2505
01:52:32,640 --> 01:52:34,840
Speaker 1: found the place before his show comes up, Bud. You

2506
01:52:34,880 --> 01:52:38,240
Speaker 1: guys debut yesterday or today today at the new studio today,

2507
01:52:38,400 --> 01:52:39,120
Speaker 1: So we look.

2508
01:52:39,000 --> 01:52:42,960
Speaker 6: Forward to a well oiled machine this afternoon with absolutely

2509
01:52:43,000 --> 01:52:45,639
Speaker 6: no issues whatsoever. At least that's what I've been told

2510
01:52:45,680 --> 01:52:48,200
Speaker 6: to say by management. I hope it goes well.

2511
01:52:48,320 --> 01:52:50,519
Speaker 1: Thanks. It's always for being here because we are here.

2512
01:52:50,880 --> 01:52:54,559
Speaker 1: You're here to help us, help our listeners make money.

2513
01:52:54,680 --> 01:52:58,080
Speaker 6: Yes, So Thursday nights this is I believe week fifteen,

2514
01:52:58,560 --> 01:53:01,000
Speaker 6: We're ten and four on the game play, and like

2515
01:53:01,040 --> 01:53:03,439
Speaker 6: I said last week, last week, the prop bets have

2516
01:53:03,520 --> 01:53:06,639
Speaker 6: been a train wreck. I've abandoned, I've jumped ship, I've

2517
01:53:06,800 --> 01:53:10,439
Speaker 6: gotten on the you know, emergency boat to get away

2518
01:53:10,479 --> 01:53:13,040
Speaker 6: from the Titanic. But in terms of the game itself,

2519
01:53:13,080 --> 01:53:16,200
Speaker 6: we're ten and four on Thursday nights. Now, I'm gonna

2520
01:53:16,200 --> 01:53:18,240
Speaker 6: need you guys to kind of hold your nose on

2521
01:53:18,280 --> 01:53:23,960
Speaker 6: this one tonight. Falcons and Bucks. Okay, conventional wisdom says

2522
01:53:24,040 --> 01:53:27,160
Speaker 6: Bucks are gonna roll these dudes up. It's four and

2523
01:53:27,200 --> 01:53:30,400
Speaker 6: a half point spread right now, Tampa Bay four and

2524
01:53:30,439 --> 01:53:31,200
Speaker 6: a half points.

2525
01:53:31,400 --> 01:53:36,040
Speaker 1: Let's stay below. Well, here's why. Baker Mayfield.

2526
01:53:36,240 --> 01:53:40,040
Speaker 6: Four straight games of two hundred yards or less through

2527
01:53:40,080 --> 01:53:42,120
Speaker 6: the air. Now, keep in mind, about a month ago

2528
01:53:42,240 --> 01:53:44,679
Speaker 6: we were having a debate Who's going to be the MVP,

2529
01:53:44,960 --> 01:53:49,240
Speaker 6: Jonathan Taylor, Danny Dimes or Baker Mayfield. Life comes at

2530
01:53:49,240 --> 01:53:53,559
Speaker 6: you fast. Four straight turns from Baker. That Tampa Bay defense,

2531
01:53:53,560 --> 01:53:56,840
Speaker 6: which is normally pretty good, you know, historically pretty good,

2532
01:53:57,040 --> 01:53:57,840
Speaker 6: they've given up.

2533
01:53:57,760 --> 01:54:00,599
Speaker 2: Twenty four or more, and four of the last five.

2534
01:54:01,080 --> 01:54:03,680
Speaker 6: Tampa Bay is zero to five against the spread in

2535
01:54:03,720 --> 01:54:07,120
Speaker 6: the last five and at Tampa seven wins this year,

2536
01:54:08,520 --> 01:54:10,639
Speaker 6: five of them have been by three points or less,

2537
01:54:10,840 --> 01:54:13,599
Speaker 6: so they're not blowing anybody out. And you look at

2538
01:54:13,600 --> 01:54:16,800
Speaker 6: this Falcons team. I know they stink, but this is

2539
01:54:16,880 --> 01:54:20,439
Speaker 6: a primetime game. If you're tanking and you're ready to

2540
01:54:20,479 --> 01:54:22,920
Speaker 6: go to Cancun, there's only a few games you get

2541
01:54:23,000 --> 01:54:26,600
Speaker 6: up for, and prime time games is one one of

2542
01:54:26,640 --> 01:54:28,640
Speaker 6: the games you get up for, and two where you

2543
01:54:28,720 --> 01:54:31,439
Speaker 6: can be seen for a new team next year.

2544
01:54:31,640 --> 01:54:33,560
Speaker 1: Well, they be as excited to play tonight as AL

2545
01:54:33,600 --> 01:54:34,760
Speaker 1: will be to broadcasting.

2546
01:54:36,120 --> 01:54:38,480
Speaker 6: AL will let you know what the spread is at

2547
01:54:38,480 --> 01:54:39,760
Speaker 6: some point, I promise you that.

2548
01:54:40,560 --> 01:54:43,120
Speaker 3: So Mike Evans back no Drake London and you still

2549
01:54:43,160 --> 01:54:44,080
Speaker 3: are going Falcons.

2550
01:54:44,160 --> 01:54:46,080
Speaker 1: I like, yeah, I like the Bucks to night at home.

2551
01:54:46,200 --> 01:54:47,560
Speaker 1: Give me Atlanta with the points.

2552
01:54:47,600 --> 01:54:50,040
Speaker 6: I think the Bucks win this thing, but I think

2553
01:54:50,040 --> 01:54:52,720
Speaker 6: the Falcons hang around. Four and a half is such

2554
01:54:52,760 --> 01:54:56,440
Speaker 6: a quirky number in gambling, so that basically frall intents

2555
01:54:56,440 --> 01:54:59,840
Speaker 6: and purposes mean six because nobody wins by five. Hardly

2556
01:55:00,040 --> 01:55:03,000
Speaker 6: anybody wins by four. Few people do twenty four to twenty.

2557
01:55:03,200 --> 01:55:06,440
Speaker 6: But four and a half is the number. So give

2558
01:55:06,480 --> 01:55:11,200
Speaker 6: me Atlanta. It's a glorified six. Divisional matchup. I think

2559
01:55:11,200 --> 01:55:14,280
Speaker 6: it's close, holds your nose and let's pull for the

2560
01:55:14,320 --> 01:55:14,960
Speaker 6: dog tonight.

2561
01:55:15,760 --> 01:55:17,200
Speaker 1: I know it's probably not on your list, but what

2562
01:55:17,240 --> 01:55:20,160
Speaker 1: would you think in his first game back? It's his

2563
01:55:20,200 --> 01:55:23,600
Speaker 1: favorite target over under for catches for Mike Evans. Do

2564
01:55:23,600 --> 01:55:24,520
Speaker 1: you think today.

2565
01:55:24,880 --> 01:55:28,120
Speaker 6: He'll be targeted? I don't have the number in front

2566
01:55:28,160 --> 01:55:32,400
Speaker 6: of me right now, but he'll get looks. So I

2567
01:55:32,480 --> 01:55:35,560
Speaker 6: would bet if they're not easing him back into the mix,

2568
01:55:35,600 --> 01:55:37,080
Speaker 6: which I don't know what their game plan is for

2569
01:55:37,160 --> 01:55:42,280
Speaker 6: him tonight, I would assume four and a half to five.

2570
01:55:42,640 --> 01:55:45,280
Speaker 6: That would be my handicap off the top of my

2571
01:55:45,360 --> 01:55:49,240
Speaker 6: head for that, So I'm sorry again. I haven't seen

2572
01:55:49,240 --> 01:55:52,040
Speaker 6: the actual Vegas number on his props because I gave

2573
01:55:52,120 --> 01:55:54,400
Speaker 6: up on props because that was so awful at it

2574
01:55:54,480 --> 01:55:56,880
Speaker 6: this year, Kate Beacon, back me up. Last year we

2575
01:55:56,880 --> 01:55:59,920
Speaker 6: were a big Harry American winning machine. This year, I know,

2576
01:56:00,000 --> 01:56:02,160
Speaker 6: Oh when I'm beat, I waved the white flag on

2577
01:56:02,240 --> 01:56:04,400
Speaker 6: props and we're just focusing on games at this point.

2578
01:56:05,040 --> 01:56:09,640
Speaker 4: So my question is to further the NFL conversation, have

2579
01:56:09,760 --> 01:56:12,600
Speaker 4: you looked at this Colts Seahawks game.

2580
01:56:12,640 --> 01:56:15,560
Speaker 3: I know you have, Oh yeah, oh, the biggest spread

2581
01:56:15,560 --> 01:56:18,440
Speaker 3: in week fifteen, right, and the possibility of old man

2582
01:56:18,520 --> 01:56:19,480
Speaker 3: Rivers getting out there.

2583
01:56:20,000 --> 01:56:22,960
Speaker 6: So remember when Cardale Jones was at Ohio State.

2584
01:56:23,040 --> 01:56:24,520
Speaker 1: You remember then he said, we.

2585
01:56:24,440 --> 01:56:27,800
Speaker 6: Didn't come here to play school Philip Rivers, didn't come

2586
01:56:27,800 --> 01:56:30,360
Speaker 6: here to play on the practice team. He didn't come

2587
01:56:30,400 --> 01:56:32,920
Speaker 6: here to just hand the ball off the Jonathan Taylor.

2588
01:56:33,840 --> 01:56:36,240
Speaker 6: That's a big number you'll get at two touchdowns for

2589
01:56:36,320 --> 01:56:39,880
Speaker 6: the Colts at Seattle. Listen, maybe I've had a few

2590
01:56:39,960 --> 01:56:42,720
Speaker 6: cocktails this early in the morning. I'm not mad at

2591
01:56:42,760 --> 01:56:45,280
Speaker 6: taking a look at the Colts with fourteen. Like odds

2592
01:56:45,320 --> 01:56:47,680
Speaker 6: makers are treating the Colts like they're the Titans, like

2593
01:56:47,720 --> 01:56:50,920
Speaker 6: they're the Raiders here. I mean, this is a decent team.

2594
01:56:50,960 --> 01:56:53,600
Speaker 6: I know the quarterback situation is a hot mess, but

2595
01:56:53,680 --> 01:56:55,920
Speaker 6: you've got the best running back in the league. You've

2596
01:56:55,920 --> 01:57:01,880
Speaker 6: got a decent offensive line, a banged up but okay defense,

2597
01:57:02,440 --> 01:57:05,840
Speaker 6: You've got a really good tight end, some pretty good receivers.

2598
01:57:06,000 --> 01:57:09,280
Speaker 6: To say, the Titans, it's not the Browns. I'll take

2599
01:57:09,360 --> 01:57:13,240
Speaker 6: pretty much any NFL team if you're giving me two touchdowns. Man, Like,

2600
01:57:13,320 --> 01:57:16,280
Speaker 6: take a look at the Colts catching fourteen, and I'm

2601
01:57:16,320 --> 01:57:19,720
Speaker 6: wondering once they announce who the starter is, whether it's

2602
01:57:19,760 --> 01:57:22,200
Speaker 6: Riley Leonard or if it's old Man Rivers, if that

2603
01:57:22,280 --> 01:57:25,600
Speaker 6: line changes at all, But I'm not mad at two

2604
01:57:25,640 --> 01:57:27,880
Speaker 6: touchdowns at all. The Colts are better than that.

2605
01:57:27,960 --> 01:57:28,520
Speaker 2: It's amazing.

2606
01:57:28,560 --> 01:57:31,080
Speaker 3: This line started at three and a half pre Daniel

2607
01:57:31,120 --> 01:57:34,840
Speaker 3: jones injury, rose to about ten once Jones got hurt,

2608
01:57:34,880 --> 01:57:37,680
Speaker 3: and now has risen since the Philip Rivers smoke I

2609
01:57:37,720 --> 01:57:38,480
Speaker 3: think has started.

2610
01:57:39,280 --> 01:57:42,120
Speaker 6: So do you think Daniel Jones is worth eleven points?

2611
01:57:42,400 --> 01:57:42,520
Speaker 1: Like?

2612
01:57:42,600 --> 01:57:45,160
Speaker 6: I like Daniel Jones just like the next guy. But

2613
01:57:45,280 --> 01:57:48,200
Speaker 6: is there any NFL player that is worth an eleven

2614
01:57:48,280 --> 01:57:51,240
Speaker 6: point swing in a game like if Patrick Mahomes goes

2615
01:57:51,240 --> 01:57:54,960
Speaker 6: out like this week, does that line change by eleven points?

2616
01:57:55,200 --> 01:57:56,560
Speaker 6: That seems a little extreme to me.

2617
01:57:56,720 --> 01:57:58,440
Speaker 3: Well, the drop is a guy that hasn't played football

2618
01:57:58,440 --> 01:58:00,440
Speaker 3: in five years, whereas the drop from Homes would be

2619
01:58:00,480 --> 01:58:01,240
Speaker 3: to Gardner Minshew.

2620
01:58:01,280 --> 01:58:02,920
Speaker 6: You know, and I keep hearing that he has played

2621
01:58:02,920 --> 01:58:05,480
Speaker 6: football in five years. Well, you know what Gino Smith

2622
01:58:05,480 --> 01:58:06,200
Speaker 6: played last week?

2623
01:58:06,240 --> 01:58:07,040
Speaker 1: And he stinks.

2624
01:58:07,320 --> 01:58:10,720
Speaker 6: Whoever, the Saints are limping to the finish line with stinks. Whoever,

2625
01:58:10,760 --> 01:58:13,200
Speaker 6: the Jets are limping to the finish line with stinks.

2626
01:58:13,320 --> 01:58:15,400
Speaker 6: I don't care if he's been playing, you know, catching

2627
01:58:15,440 --> 01:58:17,400
Speaker 6: the street with a couple of fat guys. Give me

2628
01:58:17,520 --> 01:58:20,120
Speaker 6: forty four year old Grandpaul Philip Rivers over some of

2629
01:58:20,160 --> 01:58:21,040
Speaker 6: these turns in the league.

2630
01:58:21,120 --> 01:58:24,640
Speaker 3: Right now, the Hammer putting down the hammer, he looked

2631
01:58:24,640 --> 01:58:28,040
Speaker 3: like Tim Allen walking up to the podium Christmas. Okay,

2632
01:58:28,040 --> 01:58:30,880
Speaker 3: anything else we don't have obviously caught well. Army Navy

2633
01:58:30,880 --> 01:58:32,360
Speaker 3: I think is a must watch every year.

2634
01:58:32,400 --> 01:58:34,920
Speaker 2: I think it's the first half under. We get patritree.

2635
01:58:35,120 --> 01:58:37,720
Speaker 2: What is the over runner? Thirty eight and a half,

2636
01:58:37,760 --> 01:58:38,680
Speaker 2: there's Army Navy.

2637
01:58:38,880 --> 01:58:39,040
Speaker 14: Now.

2638
01:58:39,120 --> 01:58:42,200
Speaker 6: Last year, like, is that sad that I need? It

2639
01:58:42,280 --> 01:58:44,320
Speaker 6: was Under most of the game and then there was

2640
01:58:44,360 --> 01:58:46,440
Speaker 6: a wacky fourth quarter if I remember right.

2641
01:58:46,520 --> 01:58:47,320
Speaker 1: So we're gonna.

2642
01:58:47,080 --> 01:58:50,800
Speaker 6: Play it safe this year. First half under. I think

2643
01:58:50,800 --> 01:58:52,000
Speaker 6: it's nineteen and a half.

2644
01:58:52,840 --> 01:58:53,440
Speaker 2: Jason Hammer.

2645
01:58:53,480 --> 01:58:55,720
Speaker 3: Course, you can hear him every afternoon at WIBC, our

2646
01:58:55,760 --> 01:58:56,360
Speaker 3: sister station.

2647
01:58:56,480 --> 01:58:57,720
Speaker 2: That is the Hammer of Nigel.

2648
01:58:57,480 --> 01:59:02,360
Speaker 3: Show Degenerates next Door the podcast anything else you like.

2649
01:59:02,880 --> 01:59:05,920
Speaker 2: From a let's make some money this weekend standpoint.

2650
01:59:05,400 --> 01:59:08,280
Speaker 6: Not this weekend, but the first line of college football

2651
01:59:08,320 --> 01:59:10,160
Speaker 6: playoff games are on.

2652
01:59:10,160 --> 01:59:12,160
Speaker 2: Friday, will be Alabama Oklahoma and then we get the

2653
01:59:12,200 --> 01:59:13,600
Speaker 2: three games on next Saturday.

2654
01:59:13,760 --> 01:59:17,879
Speaker 6: I think Oregon just beats the absolute breaks off James Madison.

2655
01:59:19,000 --> 01:59:20,960
Speaker 6: Twenty one and a half, I believe is the number.

2656
01:59:21,280 --> 01:59:22,120
Speaker 1: Twenty one and a half.

2657
01:59:22,200 --> 01:59:25,720
Speaker 6: That's not enough. Give me Oregon in that one. I

2658
01:59:25,800 --> 01:59:28,040
Speaker 6: took a look at Tulane Old Miss, but the coaching

2659
01:59:28,080 --> 01:59:29,240
Speaker 6: situation is a little quirky.

2660
01:59:29,280 --> 01:59:31,080
Speaker 2: To me an, Old Miss win by five touchdowns in

2661
01:59:31,080 --> 01:59:33,280
Speaker 2: a rare season against them.

2662
01:59:33,440 --> 01:59:35,680
Speaker 6: But with lane kipd God, I mean, I don't know,

2663
01:59:36,080 --> 01:59:39,840
Speaker 6: uh forty difference Maybe I don't know, he runs up

2664
01:59:39,840 --> 01:59:41,720
Speaker 6: the score. He's that much of a petty a hole.

2665
01:59:42,520 --> 01:59:47,040
Speaker 6: James Madison, though, this is like a contest winner. Somebody

2666
01:59:47,120 --> 01:59:48,800
Speaker 6: was calling number nine and got to be part of

2667
01:59:48,840 --> 01:59:52,360
Speaker 6: the college football playoff and your reward is going to Eugene.

2668
01:59:53,440 --> 01:59:55,760
Speaker 6: Give me Oregon. I think they win that game big.

2669
01:59:55,800 --> 01:59:57,520
Speaker 6: I'll lay the twenty one and a half. It's a

2670
01:59:57,520 --> 01:59:59,360
Speaker 6: big number. But if I'm playing it, I'm laying it.

2671
01:59:59,640 --> 02:00:00,960
Speaker 6: What are you you think about the one and a

2672
02:00:00,960 --> 02:00:04,360
Speaker 6: half points spread. Alabama is favored right now against Oklahoma.

2673
02:00:04,800 --> 02:00:09,520
Speaker 6: Alabama has not looked great in my opinion. Who is Oklahoma?

2674
02:00:10,120 --> 02:00:14,000
Speaker 6: Oklahoma's got a really good defense and an NFL kicker

2675
02:00:14,200 --> 02:00:16,120
Speaker 6: as a Tennessee ball fan. Let me tell you about

2676
02:00:16,160 --> 02:00:20,480
Speaker 6: Oklahoma's kicker three point fifty plus yarders in Knoxville to

2677
02:00:20,520 --> 02:00:23,720
Speaker 6: help beat Tennessee at home in a primetime game this

2678
02:00:23,800 --> 02:00:27,080
Speaker 6: year in Essen's knocking them out. And while everybody's down

2679
02:00:27,080 --> 02:00:29,040
Speaker 6: on Alabama, and you guys know this, I feel like

2680
02:00:29,080 --> 02:00:31,480
Speaker 6: I say this every week. I'm a by low Sell

2681
02:00:31,600 --> 02:00:35,800
Speaker 6: high guy. I can't see them being this bad multiple

2682
02:00:35,880 --> 02:00:36,680
Speaker 6: weeks in a row.

2683
02:00:36,920 --> 02:00:37,080
Speaker 15: Now.

2684
02:00:37,120 --> 02:00:40,960
Speaker 6: They could be Simpson their quarterback. One week he looks great,

2685
02:00:41,080 --> 02:00:42,160
Speaker 6: one week he's trash.

2686
02:00:42,480 --> 02:00:43,760
Speaker 4: What do you mean they have the best offense in

2687
02:00:43,760 --> 02:00:45,680
Speaker 4: the country. He told us that after they did not

2688
02:00:45,720 --> 02:00:46,840
Speaker 4: have best offense in the country.

2689
02:00:46,920 --> 02:00:49,160
Speaker 1: He looked confused for the second half of that game

2690
02:00:49,200 --> 02:00:49,920
Speaker 1: against Georgia.

2691
02:00:50,040 --> 02:00:53,000
Speaker 6: Oklahoma's defense is going to come at him. But man,

2692
02:00:53,080 --> 02:00:55,960
Speaker 6: don't count Bama out on this one. Man, that's gonna

2693
02:00:55,960 --> 02:00:57,520
Speaker 6: be to me, that's the best game in the first

2694
02:00:57,560 --> 02:01:01,280
Speaker 6: round by far. I'll take Indiana over the winner of either.

2695
02:01:01,120 --> 02:01:01,640
Speaker 1: One of those.

2696
02:01:02,000 --> 02:01:03,960
Speaker 6: But don't sleep on the tide.

2697
02:01:03,960 --> 02:01:04,160
Speaker 14: Man.

2698
02:01:04,320 --> 02:01:07,440
Speaker 6: Oklahoma's defense is good, but that offense isn't great. And

2699
02:01:07,480 --> 02:01:10,640
Speaker 6: if Bama can get anything offensively, we got ourselves a

2700
02:01:10,640 --> 02:01:12,960
Speaker 6: ball game down there in Oklahoma.

2701
02:01:13,200 --> 02:01:15,800
Speaker 1: All right, I'm glad your card Key works for the

2702
02:01:15,800 --> 02:01:17,520
Speaker 1: first day in the new building. So that's that's a

2703
02:01:17,560 --> 02:01:19,480
Speaker 1: positive start.

2704
02:01:19,560 --> 02:01:21,640
Speaker 6: I say that every day I come to work, Jeff

2705
02:01:21,640 --> 02:01:22,520
Speaker 6: the car Key works.

2706
02:01:22,520 --> 02:01:24,320
Speaker 2: I saw a hammer house house on, called a police

2707
02:01:24,320 --> 02:01:25,040
Speaker 2: and said, who is this man?

2708
02:01:25,080 --> 02:01:26,880
Speaker 1: You get on the door? Man, give me work, give

02:01:26,960 --> 02:01:30,200
Speaker 1: me He's wearing a collared shirt, a colored dress shirt, jacket.

2710
02:01:30,240 --> 02:01:32,440
Speaker 2: He had hit a long night last night. He ain't

2711
02:01:32,480 --> 02:01:33,120
Speaker 2: at home yet.

2712
02:01:33,960 --> 02:01:35,600
Speaker 6: I love I show up to work with pants on,

2713
02:01:35,680 --> 02:01:37,680
Speaker 6: and everybody thinks, what's going on around here?

2727
02:02:10,240 --> 02:02:12,320

02:02:57,880 --> 02:02:59,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, they gotta bright me up.

Speaker 2: You care to comment.

2761
02:03:24,680 --> 02:03:26,760
Speaker 7: I mean, at one point the camera was falling Jeff

2762
02:03:26,800 --> 02:03:29,080
Speaker 7: around like he was like a suspect or something, so

2763
02:03:29,880 --> 02:03:30,720
Speaker 7: I know what was going on.

2764
02:03:30,800 --> 02:03:33,440
Speaker 2: There will show more action. Here is what you're saying

2765
02:03:33,440 --> 02:03:37,720
Speaker 2: with with Jeff, you brought up Philip Beverson the practice squad.

2766
02:03:37,800 --> 02:03:39,680
Speaker 2: I think people are a little confused by that.

2767
02:03:39,920 --> 02:03:42,800
Speaker 3: So James, just keep everybody up to date on NFL

2768
02:03:43,120 --> 02:03:48,880
Speaker 3: rules and roster mechanics, if you will. Basically each week

2769
02:03:48,920 --> 02:03:52,360
Speaker 3: around the NFL since COVID really, teams have been able

2770
02:03:52,400 --> 02:03:54,520
Speaker 3: to promote two players off their.

2771
02:03:54,440 --> 02:03:56,280
Speaker 2: Practice squad for game days.

2772
02:03:57,320 --> 02:03:59,960
Speaker 3: The practice squad's expanded to sixteen during the COVID year,

2773
02:04:00,800 --> 02:04:03,000
Speaker 3: and so, for example, last week, the Colts brought up

2774
02:04:03,040 --> 02:04:06,080
Speaker 3: Blake Groopie as one of their practice squad call ups.

2775
02:04:06,160 --> 02:04:09,120
Speaker 3: He was the kicker, and he's allowed to dress on

2776
02:04:09,160 --> 02:04:11,360
Speaker 3: game day and play. Now, you're only allowed to do

2777
02:04:11,440 --> 02:04:14,520
Speaker 3: that with each player three times during a season, So

2778
02:04:14,640 --> 02:04:16,760
Speaker 3: this week they ended up bringing Groupie up to the

2779
02:04:16,800 --> 02:04:19,640
Speaker 3: fifty three man roster. They obviously had open spots when

2780
02:04:19,720 --> 02:04:22,160
Speaker 3: Daniel Jones was to IR and Mooney.

2781
02:04:21,840 --> 02:04:22,640
Speaker 2: Ward with IR.

2782
02:04:22,760 --> 02:04:26,160
Speaker 3: So for Rivers right now, I think the thought is,

2783
02:04:26,320 --> 02:04:30,160
Speaker 3: let's just make sure the full week goes well again

2784
02:04:30,280 --> 02:04:34,920
Speaker 3: he feels okay, whatever, he looks competent, and then on

2785
02:04:35,120 --> 02:04:38,920
Speaker 3: Saturday they can elevate him off the practice squad and

2786
02:04:39,000 --> 02:04:41,520
Speaker 3: he can start for you in the game even though

2787
02:04:41,560 --> 02:04:43,800
Speaker 3: he is on the practice squad. Now, if he is

2788
02:04:43,840 --> 02:04:45,480
Speaker 3: going to start the final four games of the season,

2789
02:04:45,520 --> 02:04:47,440
Speaker 3: at some point they'll have to bring him up to

2790
02:04:47,440 --> 02:04:49,920
Speaker 3: the fifty three man roster because again you only get

2791
02:04:49,960 --> 02:04:53,560
Speaker 3: three of those each year for individual players. So hopefully

2792
02:04:53,600 --> 02:04:58,400
Speaker 3: that clarifies everything from a Rivers practice squad designation standpoint.

2793
02:04:57,960 --> 02:05:00,760
Speaker 1: I'm curious they put do they activate all three guy

2794
02:05:00,880 --> 02:05:03,160
Speaker 1: well at least two and one as an emergency quarterback

2795
02:05:03,200 --> 02:05:03,680
Speaker 1: for Sunday?

2796
02:05:03,880 --> 02:05:05,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, that would be my guess.

2797
02:05:05,480 --> 02:05:05,640
Speaker 13: You know.

2798
02:05:05,720 --> 02:05:07,800
Speaker 3: Right now, Riley Leonard and Brett Rippin are both on

2799
02:05:07,880 --> 02:05:11,440
Speaker 3: the fifty three man roster. So my assumption for Sunday,

2800
02:05:11,560 --> 02:05:15,080
Speaker 3: and James feel free to chime in, I would say

2801
02:05:15,080 --> 02:05:18,480
Speaker 3: the quarterback depth chart is Rivers, Leonard, Brett Rippon Brett

2802
02:05:18,520 --> 02:05:20,120
Speaker 3: Rippan being the emergency third QB.

2803
02:05:20,600 --> 02:05:20,840
Speaker 5: Yeah.

2804
02:05:20,960 --> 02:05:22,600
Speaker 1: I would also as this to you, James, because I

2805
02:05:22,640 --> 02:05:24,920
Speaker 1: think it's in a lot of ways just as important

2806
02:05:25,760 --> 02:05:29,120
Speaker 1: for that defense. What's the status going to be of

2807
02:05:29,400 --> 02:05:31,360
Speaker 1: Buckner's he Is there a way he can get back

2808
02:05:31,400 --> 02:05:33,000
Speaker 1: this week or is he just practicing again?

2809
02:05:33,040 --> 02:05:33,600
Speaker 2: I'm not sure.

2810
02:05:33,720 --> 02:05:36,000
Speaker 4: We got to see what he looks like today. Honestly,

2811
02:05:36,160 --> 02:05:39,520
Speaker 4: him limited yesterday. Technically he could play this week, which

2812
02:05:39,520 --> 02:05:41,720
Speaker 4: would be the earliest that he could have returned from

2813
02:05:41,760 --> 02:05:45,800
Speaker 4: injury reserve, but neck injuries having to have surgery, I

2814
02:05:45,800 --> 02:05:47,680
Speaker 4: would assume on that neck, which he showed I believe

2815
02:05:47,680 --> 02:05:50,280
Speaker 4: it was via Instagram, he flew to Panama to get

2816
02:05:50,320 --> 02:05:53,040
Speaker 4: stem cell surgery on his neck. I don't know how

2817
02:05:53,080 --> 02:05:55,400
Speaker 4: that recovery timeline looks. I guess it's a good sign

2818
02:05:55,400 --> 02:05:58,160
Speaker 4: he's back on the practice field, but I wouldn't say

2819
02:05:58,200 --> 02:05:59,520
Speaker 4: anything definitively just yet.

2820
02:06:00,040 --> 02:06:02,400
Speaker 1: Big nine of college basketball last night, Kevin Purdue played

2821
02:06:02,400 --> 02:06:05,880
Speaker 1: and also Notre Dame one. You like this Notre Dame team, though,

2822
02:06:05,920 --> 02:06:08,120
Speaker 1: what what are they? What are they capable of doing?

2823
02:06:08,160 --> 02:06:08,480
Speaker 1: This year?

2824
02:06:09,560 --> 02:06:12,400
Speaker 2: Injury suf Yeah, the Marcus Burton injury is awful.

2825
02:06:12,960 --> 02:06:13,880
Speaker 1: For how long do we know?

2826
02:06:14,240 --> 02:06:15,800
Speaker 2: It sounds like it's gonna be multiple months.

2827
02:06:16,320 --> 02:06:18,600
Speaker 3: So just terrible for him, you know, mister basketball around

2828
02:06:18,600 --> 02:06:20,320
Speaker 3: the state for anybody that watched him at Penn, I mean,

2829
02:06:20,400 --> 02:06:23,200
Speaker 3: just a great, great score despite his size, one of

2830
02:06:23,240 --> 02:06:25,960
Speaker 3: the better players in the ACC. So really tough. A

2831
02:06:25,960 --> 02:06:28,200
Speaker 3: lot on the play to Jalen Harrison, the five star freshmen.

2832
02:06:28,320 --> 02:06:30,440
Speaker 3: I think it's played really well here in recent weeks

2833
02:06:31,880 --> 02:06:33,240
Speaker 3: and he's gonna be needed a lot.

2834
02:06:33,440 --> 02:06:35,200
Speaker 2: So yeah, their names that nice start of the year.

2835
02:06:35,400 --> 02:06:37,320
Speaker 3: You know, nothing great, great, but you know they're kind

2836
02:06:37,360 --> 02:06:40,280
Speaker 3: of on the fringe of NCAA tournament conversation and position

2837
02:06:40,400 --> 02:06:42,960
Speaker 3: themselves well. But life without Burton, I think is going

2838
02:06:43,000 --> 02:06:45,160
Speaker 3: to be really difficult. So hopefully they can drum up

2839
02:06:45,160 --> 02:06:45,640
Speaker 3: a little bit.

2840
02:06:45,600 --> 02:06:48,080
Speaker 2: More of what they're able to do against TCU a

2841
02:06:48,080 --> 02:06:49,720
Speaker 2: couple couple of games ago.

2842
02:06:49,840 --> 02:06:52,600
Speaker 1: Also, in light of the Shirm Moore situation, I've seen

2843
02:06:52,640 --> 02:06:55,680
Speaker 1: a couple of articles that you know, who could they target,

2844
02:06:55,880 --> 02:06:58,040
Speaker 1: and one of the names on several of these these

2845
02:06:58,920 --> 02:07:01,720
Speaker 1: articles have been Marcus Freeman. He's not going, I ask

2846
02:07:01,800 --> 02:07:03,280
Speaker 1: you before the show. He's not going anywhere?

2847
02:07:03,320 --> 02:07:03,440
Speaker 5: Is he?

2848
02:07:03,440 --> 02:07:05,480
Speaker 2: Why would Marcus Freeman leave Notre Dame for Michigan?

2849
02:07:05,560 --> 02:07:07,680
Speaker 1: That's my point. I don't I think that, But every

2850
02:07:08,560 --> 02:07:12,320
Speaker 1: Michigan or Alabama or LSU, they just assume they're going

2851
02:07:12,360 --> 02:07:13,320
Speaker 1: to go get whoever they want.

2852
02:07:14,000 --> 02:07:15,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, Marcus Freeman, where did he play collegiately?

2853
02:07:16,000 --> 02:07:20,240
Speaker 1: Jeff not at Michigan, the Ohio State.

2854
02:07:21,240 --> 02:07:22,920
Speaker 2: The Ohio State. Man is going to go to Michigan.

2855
02:07:24,440 --> 02:07:25,879
Speaker 1: How much money were we talking about?

2856
02:07:26,320 --> 02:07:29,920
Speaker 3: Marcus Freeman will leave Notre Dame for two jobs, one

2857
02:07:29,960 --> 02:07:32,320
Speaker 3: Ohio State and one and the other of the NFL.

2858
02:07:32,600 --> 02:07:32,840
Speaker 5: See.

2859
02:07:32,840 --> 02:07:35,080
Speaker 1: I kind of feel like, and you can't say this.

2860
02:07:35,200 --> 02:07:37,560
Speaker 1: I do think that he may investigate the NFL at

2861
02:07:37,560 --> 02:07:39,280
Speaker 1: some point in time, But.

2862
02:07:39,520 --> 02:07:39,840
Speaker 5: I don't know.

2863
02:07:40,080 --> 02:07:42,160
Speaker 1: Once you become the coach of Notre Dame, don't you

2864
02:07:42,240 --> 02:07:44,400
Speaker 1: just stick around until they kick you out?

2865
02:07:44,640 --> 02:07:47,200
Speaker 2: Stay away from investigate with how Shroan Moore is twenty

2866
02:07:47,200 --> 02:07:49,640
Speaker 2: four hours have gone here? That would be my assumption,

2867
02:07:50,560 --> 02:07:51,520
Speaker 2: That's what I would think.

2868
02:07:52,240 --> 02:07:55,840
Speaker 1: What do I know though? It's anything else? Final closing

2869
02:07:55,880 --> 02:07:56,720
Speaker 1: thoughts for you today.

2870
02:07:57,280 --> 02:07:59,480
Speaker 4: No, I'm excited to see Uncle Phil back out on

2871
02:07:59,520 --> 02:08:03,360
Speaker 4: the field. Baby, he's on whipper snappers.

2872
02:08:03,400 --> 02:08:04,240
Speaker 1: That I was done.

2873
02:08:04,280 --> 02:08:06,080
Speaker 2: They need some might be profen. Coming out of bed

2874
02:08:06,120 --> 02:08:08,160
Speaker 2: this morning, all I.

2875
02:08:08,120 --> 02:08:10,919
Speaker 4: Know is if I'm Seattle, I'm thinking to myself, please

2876
02:08:11,120 --> 02:08:14,400
Speaker 4: put him out there. Please put him out there, because

2877
02:08:14,600 --> 02:08:18,320
Speaker 4: I'm going shopping for some new things.

2878
02:08:18,360 --> 02:08:22,080
Speaker 3: Kind of wild you would rather see your option is

2879
02:08:22,400 --> 02:08:27,240
Speaker 3: a Day three rookie quarterback making his first ever NFL start,

2880
02:08:27,400 --> 02:08:29,440
Speaker 3: And if you're Seattle, you'd rather see the other guy.

2881
02:08:30,080 --> 02:08:32,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, you're going shopping for the old guy. You're you're

2882
02:08:32,040 --> 02:08:36,320
Speaker 4: going shopping saying hmm, and Christmas is coming up. I

2883
02:08:36,360 --> 02:08:38,400
Speaker 4: need to make all pro I gotta make the Pro Bowl.

2884
02:08:38,400 --> 02:08:40,120
Speaker 4: That comes to some kind of bonus. I would assume

2885
02:08:40,960 --> 02:08:42,560
Speaker 4: put the old man out there. I got to pad

2886
02:08:42,600 --> 02:08:44,320
Speaker 4: the stats, get to the upas.

2887
02:08:44,480 --> 02:08:46,240
Speaker 3: So Seattle would rather see the other guy than why

2888
02:08:46,240 --> 02:08:49,880
Speaker 3: don't the Colts play the other guy?

2889
02:08:49,960 --> 02:08:54,320
Speaker 2: Because one player loves his coach.

2890
02:08:54,640 --> 02:08:57,800
Speaker 4: I love him is what Philo Rivers told us, and

2891
02:08:57,840 --> 02:08:59,760
Speaker 4: then the coach also loves him back.

2892
02:09:00,440 --> 02:09:03,080
Speaker 2: This is love, all right. Love is what powered this.

2893
02:09:03,600 --> 02:09:06,680
Speaker 2: Because logically I get there's some.

2894
02:09:06,640 --> 02:09:10,400
Speaker 4: Real football reasons there him on the offense, having previously

2895
02:09:10,480 --> 02:09:12,840
Speaker 4: played for the Colts, still having played with many of

2896
02:09:12,880 --> 02:09:16,000
Speaker 4: the guys on this team. But I think a lot

2897
02:09:16,040 --> 02:09:18,720
Speaker 4: of it is I love this dude. We're super close.

2898
02:09:18,760 --> 02:09:21,720
Speaker 4: He knows the offense. I'm gonna get my boy a shot.

2899
02:09:23,040 --> 02:09:26,840
Speaker 1: One other thing I caught out to very late, but

2900
02:09:26,920 --> 02:09:29,720
Speaker 1: I thought it was interesting. And Cincinnati's not that far away.

2901
02:09:29,760 --> 02:09:31,720
Speaker 1: There are a few Bengals fans that listen to us

2902
02:09:32,040 --> 02:09:36,000
Speaker 1: down there. Joe Burrow yesterday very interesting quote. Did you

2903
02:09:36,000 --> 02:09:38,680
Speaker 1: guys see what he said about his future in the NFL?

2904
02:09:39,440 --> 02:09:41,400
Speaker 1: He said, quote, If I want to keep doing this,

2905
02:09:41,440 --> 02:09:43,280
Speaker 1: I have to have fun doing it. I've been through

2906
02:09:43,320 --> 02:09:46,080
Speaker 1: a lot. If it's not fun, then what am I

2907
02:09:46,200 --> 02:09:48,360
Speaker 1: doing it for? And of course a lot of people

2908
02:09:48,360 --> 02:09:50,760
Speaker 1: in cincinnatire like, oh, is this gonna be our Andrew

2909
02:09:50,840 --> 02:09:53,520
Speaker 1: luck moment? If he has one more major kind of injury.

2910
02:09:53,600 --> 02:09:55,680
Speaker 2: Do they fire Zach Taylor and just let Joe Burrow

2911
02:09:55,720 --> 02:09:56,360
Speaker 2: pick the head coach?

2912
02:09:56,560 --> 02:10:00,520
Speaker 1: I would no, he asked the question, and I would.

2913
02:10:00,720 --> 02:10:01,760
Speaker 1: I thought about that before.

2914
02:10:01,880 --> 02:10:03,800
Speaker 2: I would think that would be a pretty coveted job.

2915
02:10:03,920 --> 02:10:06,360
Speaker 1: They haven't. They haven't gone anywhere. Once they made that

2916
02:10:06,400 --> 02:10:09,040
Speaker 1: AFC Championship game in the Super Bowl, they haven't really

2917
02:10:09,040 --> 02:10:09,640
Speaker 1: gone anywhere.

2918
02:10:10,560 --> 02:10:13,280
Speaker 3: Injuries, Yeah, a lot of injuries. Yeah, influenced some of it.

2919
02:10:13,320 --> 02:10:16,240
Speaker 3: But yeah, those Burrow comments definitely were you know, I

2920
02:10:16,280 --> 02:10:19,240
Speaker 3: couldn't tell if they were retirement comments or like a

2921
02:10:19,240 --> 02:10:21,400
Speaker 3: shot at Zach Taylor comments.

2922
02:10:22,560 --> 02:10:25,320
Speaker 4: I think it was more related to probably to the

2923
02:10:25,320 --> 02:10:27,800
Speaker 4: injuries and stuff he's been through more than anything, like

2924
02:10:28,000 --> 02:10:31,280
Speaker 4: you're injured and you stink, So I can't both of those.

2925
02:10:31,120 --> 02:10:33,560
Speaker 2: So the R word or we're not going there yet.

2926
02:10:33,840 --> 02:10:35,760
Speaker 1: No, I think he just said I'm not having fun

2927
02:10:35,840 --> 02:10:37,680
Speaker 1: right now. If it's not fun, why am I doing it?

2928
02:10:37,960 --> 02:10:42,200
Speaker 1: So I would think, again, a setback, a bad injury,

2929
02:10:42,200 --> 02:10:45,520
Speaker 1: moving forward, you would think that it'll get healthier at

2930
02:10:45,560 --> 02:10:48,240
Speaker 1: some point and maybe maybe he comes back healthy and

2931
02:10:48,280 --> 02:10:50,840
Speaker 1: ready to go and one hundred percent full tank for

2932
02:10:51,000 --> 02:10:53,720
Speaker 1: energy next year. But I just didn't see that coming.

2933
02:10:55,080 --> 02:10:58,400
Speaker 1: Didn't see that one coming. But all right, so that's

2934
02:10:58,440 --> 02:11:00,680
Speaker 1: what's going on there. We don't really have game until

2935
02:11:00,720 --> 02:11:04,720
Speaker 1: the Pacers play the Sixers tomorrow night. We've got Butler

2936
02:11:04,760 --> 02:11:08,440
Speaker 1: on Saturday. We've got Indiana playing on Saturday as well

2937
02:11:08,480 --> 02:11:11,680
Speaker 1: at Kentucky and I'm looking forward to seeing does Kentucky

2938
02:11:11,720 --> 02:11:13,360
Speaker 1: start to get better at any point in time, and

2939
02:11:13,400 --> 02:11:15,000
Speaker 1: if they do, can we please not do it during

2940
02:11:15,040 --> 02:11:15,840
Speaker 1: the Indiana.

2941
02:11:15,520 --> 02:11:17,840
Speaker 2: Game Perdue Marquette also on Saturday.

2942
02:11:18,040 --> 02:11:22,280
Speaker 3: Inside of Mackie, Marquette has been terrible this season. Yeah,

2943
02:11:22,360 --> 02:11:25,360
Speaker 3: I mean the Indiana Kentucky game. You know, Kentucky has

2944
02:11:25,560 --> 02:11:29,080
Speaker 3: really really struggled to start this season. I mean Gonzaga

2945
02:11:29,120 --> 02:11:32,680
Speaker 3: beat the absolute breaks off them on a neutral floor

2946
02:11:32,760 --> 02:11:36,040
Speaker 3: about a week ago, So yeah, it is. I mean,

2947
02:11:36,080 --> 02:11:38,080
Speaker 3: the Boobirds would be out early if I was able

2948
02:11:38,120 --> 02:11:39,680
Speaker 3: to do something rupt And I think it's really important

2949
02:11:39,720 --> 02:11:43,200
Speaker 3: for Darren Devreeze's bunch to get something in the non

2950
02:11:43,240 --> 02:11:47,400
Speaker 3: conference again, Marquette one of their notable wins. They've been terrible,

2951
02:11:47,480 --> 02:11:50,160
Speaker 3: So like from a resume standpoint, that Marquete win doesn't

2952
02:11:50,200 --> 02:11:52,880
Speaker 3: look as good as a normal Marqette win would look

2953
02:11:52,920 --> 02:11:55,040
Speaker 3: like on a neutral floor. Same thing with Kansas State

2954
02:11:55,040 --> 02:11:56,840
Speaker 3: a little bit. You know, they be Kansas State at home.

2955
02:11:57,240 --> 02:12:00,000
Speaker 3: You know that game doesn't have a lot of resumes

2956
02:12:00,040 --> 02:12:02,680
Speaker 3: substance to it. So I think it's important for Indiana

2957
02:12:02,760 --> 02:12:05,480
Speaker 3: to get true road win. The Kentucky win would still

2958
02:12:05,480 --> 02:12:07,960
Speaker 3: look good on the resume, even though they've struggled.

2959
02:12:08,480 --> 02:12:09,920
Speaker 2: So I think it's a really important game.

2960
02:12:10,080 --> 02:12:11,960
Speaker 1: It's always good to beat Kentucky though, right.

2961
02:12:11,880 --> 02:12:14,320
Speaker 3: I mean, it's obviously the rivalry speaks for itself, but

2962
02:12:14,320 --> 02:12:17,720
Speaker 3: I think it's important for Indiana to gets something before

2963
02:12:17,720 --> 02:12:18,800
Speaker 3: Big ten plays starting.

2964
02:12:18,880 --> 02:12:21,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, so, Lamar Wilkerson, it worked out last time pretty well.

2965
02:12:21,720 --> 02:12:25,040
Speaker 1: You're also talking about Marquette up next, and then they

2966
02:12:25,040 --> 02:12:27,920
Speaker 1: finished up some non conference to Auburn after that and

2967
02:12:27,920 --> 02:12:30,920
Speaker 1: then kent State before going back into Big ten play.
