1
00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:13,760
Speaker 1: What's up? Everyone? Welcome into another episode of instant Reaction.

2
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:16,520
Speaker 1: Here are the Colts Audio Network and on the Colts

3
00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:19,640
Speaker 1: YouTube page, I'm jj Stanka. It's joined every week by

4
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:22,639
Speaker 1: Colts ring of hoannor wide receiver Bill Brooks. Bill. The

5
00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:26,920
Speaker 1: Colts win twenty eight to twenty seven over the New

6
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:30,520
Speaker 1: York Jets at MetLife Stadium on Sunday, and week eleven,

7
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:33,000
Speaker 1: the Colts improved a five and six on the season.

8
00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:38,600
Speaker 1: And where else to start Bill with? I think, unquestionably

9
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:42,519
Speaker 1: the best game we have ever seen Anthony Richardson play

10
00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:47,800
Speaker 1: in the NFL, and specifically Bill, the two fourth quarter

11
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 1: drives that he engineers to go lead the Colts when

12
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:55,920
Speaker 1: they're down twenty four to sixteen, goes down, gets a touchdown,

13
00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:58,920
Speaker 1: doesn't convert the two point conversion. They come back, they're

14
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:01,800
Speaker 1: down five. He goes down and he leads his first

15
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:07,399
Speaker 1: ever game winning drive in his career. He throws a

16
00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:10,119
Speaker 1: thirty nine yard into Alec Pierce. He finishes it off

17
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:13,280
Speaker 1: with a six yard touchdown run. Bill. To me, the

18
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:17,600
Speaker 1: most telling numbers from this entire football game are on

19
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:22,120
Speaker 1: those final two drives. Anthony Richardson completed eight of ten

20
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:26,479
Speaker 1: passes for one hundred and twenty nine yards with one touchdown.

21
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 1: He also ran in another score, this by the way,

22
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:33,400
Speaker 1: against a Jets defense Bill that had only allowed three

23
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:36,800
Speaker 1: touchdowns in the fourth quarter all season. So that's where

24
00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:40,319
Speaker 1: we are starting this episode of Instant Reaction presented by

25
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 1: Sony Bill with those two fourth quarter drives.

26
00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:47,280
Speaker 2: Yes, that's good to see that Anthony could.

27
00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:51,360
Speaker 3: Orchestrate those drives to get the team into the end

28
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 3: zone and score some points and have a comeback. And

29
00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 3: to me, that last drive they got the ball back

30
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:00,640
Speaker 3: I think with two mans of forty one seconds left,

31
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 3: and he went down and had was three for three

32
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:07,000
Speaker 3: throwing the ball, hit hitting some receivers, hit what Josh

33
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:11,919
Speaker 3: downs hit Michael Pittman, hit peers also, and then also

34
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 3: had two runs.

35
00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 2: The two runs, each of them were for four yeards,

36
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:16,359
Speaker 2: the last one for a touchdown.

37
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:16,760
Speaker 1: YEP.

38
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 2: So that's big.

39
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:20,240
Speaker 3: For a young guy to be put in that position

40
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:23,280
Speaker 3: as far as two minutes forty one seconds left to go,

41
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:27,400
Speaker 3: have to drive the field, score a touchdown, get the

42
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 3: team to win the football game. Pressure's on, and he

43
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:33,560
Speaker 3: seemed like he was just so relaxed, he was calm.

44
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:36,080
Speaker 3: It didn't bother him. At all to be in that position,

45
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:38,360
Speaker 3: and that's good to see. So to me, that is

46
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 3: a big, big plus for him, showing that he can

47
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 3: do it and bring a team back to win a

48
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 3: football game.

49
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:48,200
Speaker 1: I'm glad you said relaxed, Bill, because that is where

50
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:52,680
Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson kind of emphasized today. That's where he felt,

51
00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:55,840
Speaker 1: that's where he felt the two week benching kind of

52
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:59,920
Speaker 1: led him to feel. Today. He said, like he did,

53
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 1: I feel like he was pressing. He just he went

54
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,320
Speaker 1: out there and he said, you know that maybe wasn't

55
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:06,520
Speaker 1: the most prepared he's ever been. Like he didn't like,

56
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:10,280
Speaker 1: you know, go nuts with you know, with that, Like

57
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:12,360
Speaker 1: he did do some stuff which I want to get into,

58
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:16,200
Speaker 1: but he just said, like coming back after the two

59
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:20,280
Speaker 1: weeks behind the scenes led him to feel more relaxed.

60
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:24,480
Speaker 1: And I thought that hearing that you saw it like you, Bill,

61
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:27,200
Speaker 1: like you said, you absolutely saw him look relaxed. I

62
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:29,440
Speaker 1: thought he just was in command all the game, the

63
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:34,600
Speaker 1: entire game, and then he was poised in really difficult moments.

64
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 1: I mean, the second half started off poorly for him.

65
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:40,080
Speaker 1: He is the strip sack that leads to the Jets

66
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 1: going and taking the lead and then you're backed up

67
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 1: and you gotta go down and score a touchdown. You

68
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:49,920
Speaker 1: got to lead a seventy yard touchdown drive to win

69
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 1: the game and realistically save your season. And he just

70
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:57,160
Speaker 1: goes down and takes him a couple of plays and

71
00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 1: he does it.

72
00:03:58,240 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 2: Bill.

73
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:03,640
Speaker 1: I'm glad that that you felt that, because being in

74
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:06,000
Speaker 1: the stadium and then hearing from him after that was

75
00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 1: also kind of My overarching feeling is like he looked

76
00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:15,200
Speaker 1: more just in command and in control then I think

77
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:18,880
Speaker 1: we've seen him look all season, and you know, that.

78
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:20,359
Speaker 2: Could come from a couple of things.

79
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:22,840
Speaker 3: I know for me as a player, when I went

80
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:25,400
Speaker 3: into a game, I always liked to get hit real

81
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:27,560
Speaker 3: early in the game. You know, it'd be nice to

82
00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:30,400
Speaker 3: catch a pass on the first drive, get hit and

83
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:32,920
Speaker 3: you're really into the game and you feel like, okay,

84
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:33,800
Speaker 3: you're a part of the game.

85
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 2: Now, you're used to it, you're ready to go.

86
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,800
Speaker 3: And you know, for Anthony, maybe that first run he

87
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 3: had that got him into the game. You know, the

88
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:44,520
Speaker 3: first play on offense and the beginning of the game

89
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 3: was Anthony running the ball, got hit, got back up.

90
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:48,560
Speaker 2: And was ready to go.

91
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:52,960
Speaker 3: So it was good to see him be relaxed, be

92
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:54,520
Speaker 3: comfortable in the system.

93
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:56,640
Speaker 2: And some of it also can be that, you know what,

94
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:57,320
Speaker 2: he had a.

95
00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 3: Good command of the game plan, and when you have

96
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 3: a good a man of the game plan, you feel

97
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:02,880
Speaker 3: confident about what you're.

98
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:04,400
Speaker 2: Going to do out there in a football field.

99
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:08,279
Speaker 3: So give Anthony credit for preparing well, being ready to

100
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:11,719
Speaker 3: go and not getting rattled. Also when things didn't go

101
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:16,560
Speaker 3: well for the team, just staying poised and staying relaxed.

102
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 3: Because for me personally, if I've been out for a

103
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 3: couple of weeks that came back for my first game,

104
00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:22,360
Speaker 3: I would.

105
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:24,440
Speaker 2: Have been amped up at the beginning of the game.

106
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:27,559
Speaker 3: So give credit to Anthony for staying calm and cool

107
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,200
Speaker 3: and relaxed and actually going out there next cut in

108
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 3: the game plan.

109
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:35,000
Speaker 1: I think that's been that you mentioned him being amped up,

110
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:36,800
Speaker 1: and like that's something that he definitely could have fallen

111
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 1: into the trap of. I do think that's been somewhat

112
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:42,800
Speaker 1: of a trend for him this year, is that when

113
00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:46,680
Speaker 1: he's missed some time and he's come back, whether it

114
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:50,360
Speaker 1: was Week one against Houston or Week six against Miami,

115
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:54,160
Speaker 1: when he's come back, he's been maybe a little I

116
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:57,280
Speaker 1: don't want to say like jittery, but it's almost felt

117
00:05:57,279 --> 00:05:58,800
Speaker 1: like he sees a guy open and it's like, God,

118
00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:00,360
Speaker 1: you know, I got to get the ball there, and

119
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:03,520
Speaker 1: then he misses the throw. Today it was just he

120
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:05,800
Speaker 1: was in control, and I thought the game plan for

121
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:08,720
Speaker 1: him Bill early on was awesome, where the Colts just

122
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 1: said Shane Stiken said, we are gonna run it. We

123
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:14,720
Speaker 1: are gonna run it with Anthony, and then we're gonna

124
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:17,719
Speaker 1: throw the ball off of that and you know, you

125
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:21,240
Speaker 1: get the completion to downs that incredible diving catch early

126
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:24,080
Speaker 1: in the game. That just sparks some stuff. You get

127
00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:28,240
Speaker 1: Anthony running it in. I mean mo Ali Cox said

128
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:32,240
Speaker 1: one of my favorite quotes of any player that I've

129
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:34,880
Speaker 1: heard all year. So he's talking about Anthony's touchdown run

130
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:38,599
Speaker 1: Bill in the first most said quote, it looked like

131
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:40,960
Speaker 1: that dude got hit by the Holy Ghost the way

132
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:45,800
Speaker 1: he went backwards. I mean, Jalen Mills got pushed on

133
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:48,960
Speaker 1: that play. But like that's like you could see like

134
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:53,840
Speaker 1: the reaction of Richardson's teammates after that was like, oh, yeah,

135
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,600
Speaker 1: we're back, Like we are back with this guy, and

136
00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:58,960
Speaker 1: they had always believed in him. And then like I

137
00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 1: think just like seeing that was like, Okay, we got

138
00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 1: a little something here today in this game.

139
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:06,679
Speaker 3: Bill, Yeah, I mean it's special when you have Anthony

140
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,920
Speaker 3: Richardson in this offense and when the team gets into

141
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,320
Speaker 3: the red zone, that's another weapon that the coach have

142
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:14,800
Speaker 3: as far as Anthony rung the ball and you know

143
00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:17,760
Speaker 3: him run the ball and they have to account for Anthony.

144
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:20,680
Speaker 3: But also when Anthony runs the ball and he sees

145
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:24,160
Speaker 3: someone that he can truck and run over, well, you

146
00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:26,680
Speaker 3: know what he did it today. You know he ran

147
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:28,600
Speaker 3: over the guy to make sure he got the touchdown

148
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:32,080
Speaker 3: and get into the end zone. So Anthony is definitely

149
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:35,800
Speaker 3: a weapon, but he's a big weapon in my eyes, definitely.

150
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:37,840
Speaker 2: In the red zone where he can run over people.

151
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:40,920
Speaker 3: And it's good to have an extra weapon on the

152
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:44,320
Speaker 3: offense like that, so Shane can use him in different

153
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:47,040
Speaker 3: ways and use the offense as far as put them

154
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:48,120
Speaker 3: in different positions to.

155
00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:51,320
Speaker 2: Use his talents and help out other players as well.

156
00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:53,400
Speaker 2: So it's good to see Anthony back.

157
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:57,360
Speaker 3: It's good to see him out there playing and relaxing

158
00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,560
Speaker 3: and having fun with his teammates. And that's what you

159
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:02,720
Speaker 3: want as a professional player. Yes, you want to win.

160
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:04,640
Speaker 3: You want to compete, but you also want to have

161
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:06,720
Speaker 3: fun with your teammates out there. And Anthony looked like

162
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:07,800
Speaker 3: he was out with fine today.

163
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,400
Speaker 1: All right, I want to get into some of the

164
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:15,320
Speaker 1: bigger plays, like single plays that Anthony had in this game.

165
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 1: And I want to start with the thirty nine yarder

166
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:21,200
Speaker 1: to Alec Pierce, the completion down the near sideline, the

167
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 1: play that really sparked the Colts to win this football game.

168
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:28,480
Speaker 1: And I was talking with Alec in the locker room

169
00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:30,960
Speaker 1: after the game, and you know, just you know, hey,

170
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 1: like take me through that play. And Alec told me

171
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:37,520
Speaker 1: that he had noticed all game that the Jets cornerbacks

172
00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:40,600
Speaker 1: were getting, as he said, a little bit nosy on

173
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:44,600
Speaker 1: these outbreaking option routes that Josh Downs had been running.

174
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:47,520
Speaker 1: Those are kind of a staple of this offense, bill right,

175
00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:50,120
Speaker 1: like down, you get downslayed up on the slot and

176
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:51,720
Speaker 1: you give him kind of the two way go and

177
00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:56,040
Speaker 1: if he hits the outbreaker, those are usually easy completions

178
00:08:56,080 --> 00:09:00,240
Speaker 1: for this offense. And Sauce Gardner and DJ Reid, that's

179
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:03,360
Speaker 1: two outside corners, had been just kind of waiting to

180
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:07,480
Speaker 1: sit on one of those all game. So Alex tells Anthony, hey,

181
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:10,080
Speaker 1: it looks like we're gonna call this play at some

182
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:13,080
Speaker 1: point if you get this look, if they're in a

183
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:17,440
Speaker 1: like a palm's coverage, Hey check to a go ball

184
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:21,040
Speaker 1: to me because I'm gonna be open. So Anthony, that's

185
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:24,480
Speaker 1: exactly what he does. Second and six, two fourteen to

186
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:27,840
Speaker 1: go ball on the Colts thirty four yard line. Anthony

187
00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:31,559
Speaker 1: gets up, he checks the play and says, Okay, this

188
00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:33,559
Speaker 1: is how it's going to go. So he checks the play,

189
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:37,960
Speaker 1: drops back, immediate pump fake like he's ready to throw

190
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:41,400
Speaker 1: that ball to Downs and Sauce Gardner. He Gardner's eyes

191
00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:43,560
Speaker 1: are on Anthony Richardson on this play. He's kind of

192
00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:46,240
Speaker 1: feeling Pierce, but his eyes are on Richardson and he's

193
00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:49,560
Speaker 1: just waiting for Anthony to throw that outbreaker at the Downs.

194
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:53,480
Speaker 1: Richardson pump fakes it. Gardner kind of gets lost in

195
00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:56,640
Speaker 1: space a little bit, and Anthony lets the throw go

196
00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 1: hits Pierce in stride. Nice to play about safety by

197
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:02,360
Speaker 1: the way to keep peers from scoring. But ultimately that

198
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:07,560
Speaker 1: one good thing. But the thing Bill here is like

199
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:10,680
Speaker 1: we've seen this sometimes sometimes this year from Anthony where

200
00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:12,080
Speaker 1: I kind of mentioned like he got a little he

201
00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:14,760
Speaker 1: gets a little bit amped up where a player will

202
00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:17,559
Speaker 1: be there, and he he almost speeds up his process

203
00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 1: too much, and that's where you see some of the

204
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:22,920
Speaker 1: sprays and some of the misses on guys who are open.

205
00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:25,360
Speaker 1: This one he pump fakes, but he knows exactly what

206
00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:28,440
Speaker 1: he's doing, quickly resets and gets that ball out to Alec.

207
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:31,040
Speaker 1: It is a perfect throw. That ball's got to be

208
00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:33,760
Speaker 1: right down the sideline because the safety is kind of

209
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:38,280
Speaker 1: hunting there, and I mean, just a perfect throw, great

210
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:42,760
Speaker 1: execution on the play and it you know, Molei Cox

211
00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:44,839
Speaker 1: told me after the game, like as soon as Alec

212
00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:46,760
Speaker 1: caught that ball, he goes, oh, yeah, we got this one.

213
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:48,120
Speaker 1: We're gonna go down and win this game.

214
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:52,040
Speaker 2: That's a good feel in the half. I'm glad most

215
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 2: that way at the moment.

216
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:56,800
Speaker 3: But when you said that to me, Jj, the thing

217
00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:59,680
Speaker 3: I thought of was a communication between Alec and and

218
00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,079
Speaker 3: that is what you want to see out there. You

219
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:04,640
Speaker 3: want to see guys coming back to the huddle or

220
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:07,760
Speaker 3: coming back to the sideline after the series of plays

221
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:10,280
Speaker 3: and talking to one another and saying, hey, look this

222
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:11,400
Speaker 3: is what I see out there.

223
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 2: You know, if they do this, be alert.

224
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:16,640
Speaker 3: I could be open on this play or you need

225
00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:19,520
Speaker 3: to check to this play, And that's good communication from

226
00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:22,760
Speaker 3: both and that's good communication in regards to letting me

227
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:25,319
Speaker 3: know exactly what they want to do. And then Anthony

228
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:28,960
Speaker 3: also trusting what Alex coming back and telling him. So

229
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:31,760
Speaker 3: that is a good, good, good sign right there for

230
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 3: both of them. Both of them are young players, but

231
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:36,880
Speaker 3: both of them are working to get better and they're

232
00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:37,880
Speaker 3: on the same page.

233
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:39,040
Speaker 2: So that's very.

234
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:42,400
Speaker 3: Good that they can communicate like that. And that's what

235
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:45,600
Speaker 3: helps you get big plays because there's things that happen

236
00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:49,280
Speaker 3: out there, things that you plan for during a week

237
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:52,079
Speaker 3: that's something totally different happens, and you have to make

238
00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:54,360
Speaker 3: the adjustment in the game on the fly.

239
00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:55,679
Speaker 2: And that's what they did.

240
00:11:55,720 --> 00:12:00,840
Speaker 3: They made that adjustment out there, told Alec, told be

241
00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:02,839
Speaker 3: aware of this. This is what they're doing. They're kind

242
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:05,840
Speaker 3: of cheating on those option routes. When Josh Down's come out,

243
00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:09,079
Speaker 3: I should be opening the hold back there and if

244
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:11,960
Speaker 3: I am, throw the ball and as you mentioned, Anthony

245
00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 3: was relaxed, Calm didn't rush it, just threw it out

246
00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:18,200
Speaker 3: there and Alc made a nice catch and as you said,

247
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:21,200
Speaker 3: it was it was it probably was a blessing in

248
00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:24,280
Speaker 3: the skies that the guy tackled out, but I'm sure

249
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:26,800
Speaker 3: Alec would love to get it had got a touchdown

250
00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:27,880
Speaker 3: on that play.

251
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:29,439
Speaker 1: I mean, you don't want to give the ball back

252
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:33,640
Speaker 1: to Aaron Rodgers with two minutes to go, and you know,

253
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:36,400
Speaker 1: either a one or a three point lead, so its

254
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:40,800
Speaker 1: exactly work out the other throw. I think they'll This

255
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:42,960
Speaker 1: other throw I want to talk about here, I think

256
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:44,880
Speaker 1: was my favorite throw of the game though, and it's

257
00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:49,319
Speaker 1: the play right after the completion Toppears, where so you

258
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 1: got the ball in the twenty seven yard line two

259
00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:54,319
Speaker 1: minutes just after the two minute warning, go Richardson out

260
00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:56,480
Speaker 1: of the gun. He goes play action to Jonathan Taylor

261
00:12:56,840 --> 00:13:00,319
Speaker 1: and the pocket kind of quickly collapses, Javon Kinlaw coming

262
00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:02,319
Speaker 1: right at him. He gets like a really nice, like

263
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:05,720
Speaker 1: ripping swim move on Tanner BORDERLINI so Kim Law's coming

264
00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:08,720
Speaker 1: right at him. The rest of the pockets collapsing with

265
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:12,040
Speaker 1: Quinn Williams and this other d lineman working on Brayden

266
00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:17,040
Speaker 1: Smith and Richardson. He play action his drop. It's like

267
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:20,679
Speaker 1: a real quick drop to the thirty let's say it's

268
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:23,960
Speaker 1: a thirty four yard line, and with pressure, Richardson does

269
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:27,400
Speaker 1: not backpedal. He stands tall in the pocket. He knows

270
00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:30,320
Speaker 1: he's gonna get hit, and he throws this seam ball

271
00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:33,680
Speaker 1: to Josh Downs before Downs turns and looks at it

272
00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:36,199
Speaker 1: because he knows Downs it's gonna get open in the

273
00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:39,560
Speaker 1: right spot in this zone behind Oliver, the slot corner.

274
00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:44,120
Speaker 1: It's a great throw. It's on time. It's exactly where

275
00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:48,360
Speaker 1: this ball needs to go, you know, because he you know,

276
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 1: maybe is a little behind Downs, but regardless, like it's

277
00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:55,960
Speaker 1: it's the right decision, the right throw in a moment

278
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:59,000
Speaker 1: where I think some quarterbacks might have felt that pressure

279
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:01,120
Speaker 1: and just kind of bailed and then you try to

280
00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:03,840
Speaker 1: make something happen. It could be a busted play, and incompletion,

281
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:07,640
Speaker 1: whatever it is for Richardson to stand in the pocket

282
00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:10,360
Speaker 1: like that and deliver that throw on time to Downs

283
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:12,800
Speaker 1: and trust Downs to go make that play. I thought

284
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 1: that that was one of his more impressive plays of

285
00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:17,760
Speaker 1: the game, if not his most impressive play the game.

286
00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:19,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was very impressive.

287
00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:23,840
Speaker 3: And you know this is where Anthony has trust and

288
00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:24,840
Speaker 3: faith in his ability.

289
00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:27,160
Speaker 2: I mean, he's a big man, strong man.

290
00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:28,960
Speaker 3: He knows he can stay in the pocket and he

291
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:30,800
Speaker 3: knows that it's gonna take a lot for a defender

292
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:34,320
Speaker 3: to bring him down or to disrupt his passing, and

293
00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:36,480
Speaker 3: for him to stay in the pocket and then also

294
00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:40,280
Speaker 3: trust Josh to be the right place to the right time,

295
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,840
Speaker 3: and that Josh would turn around, get his head around

296
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:45,680
Speaker 3: to be able to catch the ball. You know, that

297
00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:47,520
Speaker 3: says a lot about those two. Those two on the

298
00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:50,840
Speaker 3: same page. It's good at the nice to see that

299
00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:54,440
Speaker 3: they're working together. But get give Anthony credit. I mean,

300
00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:57,680
Speaker 3: Anthony just such a big, strong young man and for

301
00:14:57,800 --> 00:14:59,200
Speaker 3: him to stay in the pocket and get the ball

302
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:01,720
Speaker 3: out to that was a big play.

303
00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:07,520
Speaker 1: So that leads the Colts down to you know, having

304
00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:10,960
Speaker 1: a gold to go set of downs for the game basically,

305
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:14,520
Speaker 1: and a couple of plays. You know, they try to

306
00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 1: run it to Taylor, doesn't really go anywhere. Then a

307
00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:20,880
Speaker 1: quick little kind of sprint out pass to Pittman that

308
00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:22,960
Speaker 1: he gets you a couple of yards. So then you

309
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:24,680
Speaker 1: get third and four in the four yard line and

310
00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:27,400
Speaker 1: you just you go to work right here with Anthony Richardson.

311
00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:31,960
Speaker 1: This is where he he has this kind of not

312
00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:35,080
Speaker 1: unique but this is this is where his skill set

313
00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:38,760
Speaker 1: really shines to me, Bill, you pull Macknzoalvez, you pull

314
00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 1: Ashton duel in on a quarterback sweep paves the way.

315
00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:44,880
Speaker 1: And then when Richardson cuts his ball up field, Bill,

316
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:49,640
Speaker 1: I looked up Pro Football Focus has like tracking data

317
00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:51,920
Speaker 1: on it, and Richardson is running eight and a half

318
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:54,400
Speaker 1: miles an hour when he cut up field. So like,

319
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:56,280
Speaker 1: think about like you're on a treadmill. Eight a half

320
00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 1: miles an hour is like you're you're running. You are

321
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 1: you're running. Maybe you're not, maybe sprinting, but like you

322
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:06,600
Speaker 1: are running. And at six four two forty four, Uh boy,

323
00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:12,280
Speaker 1: DJ Reid, good good effort, man, Like glad you stuck

324
00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:16,160
Speaker 1: your nose in there. But uh Jalen Jones after the game,

325
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:20,640
Speaker 1: the Golts cornerback kind of spared a thought there. He said, uh, quote,

326
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:23,040
Speaker 1: when you've got a quarterback that's six foot five two

327
00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:25,320
Speaker 1: fifty man, look you stepping in front of a freight

328
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:27,040
Speaker 1: train for real. I'd hate to be on the other

329
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:30,520
Speaker 1: side of that. I mean, I'm glad you spared a

330
00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:33,200
Speaker 1: thought for DJ Reid. It's like it's like Bill, you know,

331
00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:36,280
Speaker 1: like when like you see a guy in basketball, get

332
00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:38,600
Speaker 1: like posterize on a dunk, and it's like he was

333
00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:40,000
Speaker 1: going up and try to make a play and he

334
00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:42,440
Speaker 1: just kind of got kind of got dunked on. But

335
00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:44,720
Speaker 1: you admire him for at least going up and try

336
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:47,080
Speaker 1: to make a play. This kind of felt like that, like, yeah,

337
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:49,240
Speaker 1: good for you, DJ Reid, but like you weren't bringing

338
00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:51,520
Speaker 1: Richardson down on that play.

339
00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:54,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was like, good effort, nice try.

340
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:56,440
Speaker 3: We understand that you you have to try and have

341
00:16:56,440 --> 00:16:59,320
Speaker 3: to give an effort, but you just were outmatched. You

342
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:02,480
Speaker 3: were not Anthony Richardson from getting into that end zone. So,

343
00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:05,320
Speaker 3: and Anthony has done that a couple of times this year.

344
00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:10,520
Speaker 3: People just you know, we've got corners and safeties that

345
00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:13,320
Speaker 3: are trying to come up and stop him. And once

346
00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:18,520
Speaker 3: Anthony gets moving, running and gets all that weight behind

347
00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:23,200
Speaker 3: him and it's just physical mass, those guys don't stand

348
00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:24,960
Speaker 3: a chance and he just gets into the end zone.

349
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:27,440
Speaker 3: And like I said, that's another weapon for the Coast

350
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:29,840
Speaker 3: to have in the red zone, knowing that if Anthony

351
00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:32,600
Speaker 3: does run the ball, he's big enough, he's strong enough

352
00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:35,760
Speaker 3: to run over guys or just run through tackles to

353
00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:39,240
Speaker 3: get into the end zone. So as as a plus

354
00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:42,120
Speaker 3: for the Coast offense, and I'm sure Shane loves having

355
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:44,400
Speaker 3: that option to be able to use Anthony to run

356
00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:47,359
Speaker 3: the ball or of course he can't pass the ball

357
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:48,600
Speaker 3: in the end zone as well.

358
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,439
Speaker 1: So a couple of other moments in this game where

359
00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:57,360
Speaker 1: Richardson's physical ability really shined. Two ones that popped off

360
00:17:57,359 --> 00:17:59,639
Speaker 1: the screen and popped off not not just the scream

361
00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:02,680
Speaker 1: and the game, I should say, popped off the field.

362
00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:05,920
Speaker 1: But I'm saying this while i'm you know, real time

363
00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:09,800
Speaker 1: rewatching these plays. The first one, bill is the first

364
00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:14,200
Speaker 1: play of the second to last drive of the game.

365
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:17,600
Speaker 1: So stick with me here. It's down twenty four to sixteen.

366
00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:23,479
Speaker 1: It's first and ten on their own thirty and Oliver

367
00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:26,399
Speaker 1: the slot corner, gets like immediate pressure on Richardson and

368
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:28,159
Speaker 1: he starts to kind of like juke and you know,

369
00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:30,080
Speaker 1: all right, am I gonna try to duke this guy.

370
00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:32,480
Speaker 1: Can't get him? Okay, we start hand fighting a little bit.

371
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:37,480
Speaker 1: Oliver engages with Richardson on the far hash on the

372
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:41,240
Speaker 1: twenty yard line, and Richardson just kind of like keeps fighting, fighting, fighting,

373
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:44,160
Speaker 1: until he's almost halfway between the near hash and the numbers.

374
00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:47,920
Speaker 1: Oliver can't bring him down and Oliver's got him, and

375
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:51,119
Speaker 1: Richardson throws the ball away. So instead of taking a

376
00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:53,479
Speaker 1: sack for a loss of fifteen yards on a gotta

377
00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:59,240
Speaker 1: have it drive, Richardson has a zero yard play second

378
00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:02,640
Speaker 1: and ten instead a second and twenty five. And Bill

379
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 1: just think about how open Shane Stecken's playbook is at

380
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 1: that point. If you're calling a play on second and ten,

381
00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:12,320
Speaker 1: you've got kind of your whole menu still available. But

382
00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:14,160
Speaker 1: if you're calling a play on second and twenty five,

383
00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:16,720
Speaker 1: there is not much you can call that You're like,

384
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:20,560
Speaker 1: that play is going to be successful. So that ability

385
00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:22,639
Speaker 1: to avoid the sack, and it popped up earlier in

386
00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:25,160
Speaker 1: the game on that one play on the far sideline

387
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:29,680
Speaker 1: where Richardson gets like again, he gets engaged and he's

388
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:31,639
Speaker 1: just fighting, fighting, fighting, he flips the ball out to

389
00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:36,040
Speaker 1: downs for a first down. Those kind of plays are

390
00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:39,879
Speaker 1: we know Richardson can do that, we've seen it before,

391
00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:43,679
Speaker 1: but it's such a good reminder of how important his

392
00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:47,399
Speaker 1: ability to avoid sacks can be in the course of

393
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:50,160
Speaker 1: a game. Where you don't take the loss of fifteen

394
00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:53,000
Speaker 1: you're able to keep your playbook open and get to

395
00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:55,840
Speaker 1: the next play, which Bill was a twenty yard completion

396
00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:59,640
Speaker 1: to Michael Pittman Junior that sparked that first touchdown drive

397
00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:00,440
Speaker 1: in the four the quarner.

398
00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:03,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's good, and that's what I was talking about earlier,

399
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:05,560
Speaker 3: by making smart plays, make good decisions.

400
00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:08,280
Speaker 2: Yes, he's physical enough to hold off.

401
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:11,600
Speaker 3: Guys from sacking him and causing a loss for the

402
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:14,960
Speaker 3: team and kind of putting shame, you know, and a

403
00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:16,640
Speaker 3: buying a little bit as far as trying to find

404
00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:20,040
Speaker 3: plays to get a first down on a second and

405
00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:24,040
Speaker 3: twenty or second and twenty five. But now you're second

406
00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:25,879
Speaker 3: and ten, so as you said, you still have your

407
00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:27,840
Speaker 3: whole playbook open to you.

408
00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:30,920
Speaker 2: So it's a smart play by Anthony.

409
00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:33,840
Speaker 3: Just to get get rid of the ball, not take

410
00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:36,919
Speaker 3: a sack, but also his physical abilding, I mean, just

411
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:41,120
Speaker 3: for him to hold the guy off long enough so

412
00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:43,000
Speaker 3: he can get the ball and throw it and throw

413
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:46,520
Speaker 3: an incomplete pass. It's a very smart play, very good play.

414
00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 3: And now you just, hey, you live to fight another day.

415
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:53,080
Speaker 3: And it's second and ten, a lot more manageable to

416
00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:55,439
Speaker 3: get a first down. And as you said, he hit

417
00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:57,680
Speaker 3: Pittman there and got a first down. So a big

418
00:20:57,720 --> 00:21:01,560
Speaker 3: play the Pittman for twenty yards a first down, and

419
00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:04,800
Speaker 3: they were able to continue to drive at that moment

420
00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:07,760
Speaker 3: and move down the field and of course then score

421
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:09,480
Speaker 3: a touchdown by hitting Josh Downs for.

422
00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:12,000
Speaker 2: Plus six points.

423
00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:15,320
Speaker 1: So before that touchdown to downs. Another one of my

424
00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:17,800
Speaker 1: favorite plays from this game from Richardson. It's third and

425
00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:20,720
Speaker 1: two on the Jets forty two yard line. Richardson gets

426
00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:23,760
Speaker 1: under center, he goes to a heavy play action boot

427
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:28,560
Speaker 1: to his right, and I mean immediately Quinnon Williams gets

428
00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:32,200
Speaker 1: into the backfield, Like Quinn Williams is such a good player, man,

429
00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:36,320
Speaker 1: he's so yes, So he's got ninety five quinnin Williams

430
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:38,000
Speaker 1: is one of the best defensive tackles, one of the

431
00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:41,840
Speaker 1: most athletic defensive tackles in the NFL. Chasing after him.

432
00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:44,560
Speaker 1: But the thing, Bill is the play action worked on

433
00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:48,639
Speaker 1: this play. You got forty four Surewood taking the bait,

434
00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:53,360
Speaker 1: and he is Surewood is you know, kind of he's

435
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:55,439
Speaker 1: caught at the line of skirmage while mowele A Cox

436
00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:59,600
Speaker 1: is running free. So Richardson he almost kind of runs

437
00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:03,919
Speaker 1: along like the curvature of the Jets logo at midfield.

438
00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:07,760
Speaker 1: He's trying to get away from Williams. And like almost

439
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,000
Speaker 1: like so that this is wild the way that he

440
00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:14,960
Speaker 1: throws this ball. He puts his back foot down as

441
00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:19,399
Speaker 1: he's just running almost parallel to the forty five yard

442
00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:22,960
Speaker 1: line and just flicks it out there to Moilei Cox.

443
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:26,320
Speaker 1: This ball travels like thirty yards in the air almost

444
00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:30,080
Speaker 1: and he completes it for a twelve yard game. So

445
00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:34,439
Speaker 1: this throw right here is like there are not many

446
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:36,480
Speaker 1: quarterbacks in the NFL who can make this throw in

447
00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:40,240
Speaker 1: this moment, And sometimes you just got to be reminded

448
00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:44,680
Speaker 1: of that, of like for all the ups and downs

449
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:49,160
Speaker 1: and the inconsistencies that Richardson has had, Like his arm talent,

450
00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:50,879
Speaker 1: and I wrote this on colts dot com, Bill, like

451
00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:54,199
Speaker 1: his arm talent is not just the sixty yard bombs

452
00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:57,199
Speaker 1: to Alec Pierce. It's plays like this where when we

453
00:22:57,240 --> 00:23:00,879
Speaker 1: think about arm talent and the stuff Richardson can do

454
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:04,080
Speaker 1: that a lot of other quarterbacks can't, it's more so

455
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:06,680
Speaker 1: to me, it's this throw right here to Moeli Cox.

456
00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:09,280
Speaker 1: It's not the bombs to Alec Pierre. Since this throw

457
00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:12,879
Speaker 1: in a gotta have its situation where you've got your

458
00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:15,879
Speaker 1: tight end wide open. This is a difficult throw with

459
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:18,440
Speaker 1: Quinn Williams bearing down on you and you are still

460
00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:21,560
Speaker 1: able to make it because of your athletic ability and

461
00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:25,760
Speaker 1: the incredible, incredible arm strength that you possess.

462
00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:29,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, that's one of the pluses of Anthony

463
00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:32,280
Speaker 3: Richison that he can make throws that a lot of

464
00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:34,720
Speaker 3: other quarterbacks can't make, and he can get the ball

465
00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:38,960
Speaker 3: to players at different positions and different spots in the

466
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:42,399
Speaker 3: field where sometimes other quarterbacks can't get the ball to

467
00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:46,639
Speaker 3: their receivers or whoevers the past catcher is. So having

468
00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:50,040
Speaker 3: Anthony Rigison back there and knowing his athletic ability the

469
00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:52,200
Speaker 3: things that he can do out there in a football field,

470
00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:53,439
Speaker 3: that's just a plus.

471
00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:55,880
Speaker 2: And to me, it's a lot.

472
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:58,760
Speaker 3: Easier teaching Anthony to other things that he needs to

473
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:02,320
Speaker 3: work on to get better than having a quarterback that, hey, say, look, no,

474
00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:04,800
Speaker 3: what he doesn't have the armed talent or the arm

475
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:06,280
Speaker 3: strength to do certain things.

476
00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:09,520
Speaker 2: To me, that's harder to try to help a.

477
00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:13,400
Speaker 3: Quarterback develop those things because more likely his talents ain't

478
00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:15,959
Speaker 3: going to take him so far, and he's not going

479
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:18,840
Speaker 3: to be able to have that special talent of getting

480
00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:22,680
Speaker 3: the ball to receivers in certain spots. He's maybe limited

481
00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:25,560
Speaker 3: on what he can do from a physical standpoint. But

482
00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:29,080
Speaker 3: when we have Anthony Richardson, who can physically do almost

483
00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:32,159
Speaker 3: anything back there as a quarterback, it makes it so

484
00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:36,560
Speaker 3: much easier for the coaches to help out the quarterback

485
00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:39,920
Speaker 3: to get him to make the big plays because then

486
00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:42,359
Speaker 3: they can scheme things, don't have to worry about the

487
00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:47,240
Speaker 3: physical attribute to a lack of physical attributes that will

488
00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:50,600
Speaker 3: hinder him from making plays. So Anthony has all the

489
00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:53,679
Speaker 3: physical traits that you want in a quarterback as far

490
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:57,640
Speaker 3: as throwing the ball, arm strength, pulling the ball where

491
00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:00,119
Speaker 3: he needs to. He just needs to refine it, be

492
00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:02,919
Speaker 3: a little bit more consistent and it's a lot easier

493
00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:05,000
Speaker 3: to work with that than to work with someone that

494
00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:06,040
Speaker 3: doesn't have that talent.

495
00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:09,040
Speaker 1: All right, I want to quickly talk about the touchdown

496
00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:12,480
Speaker 1: to Josh downs because Bill, I've seen this play before,

497
00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:17,080
Speaker 1: and this is gonna be like this is how I guess,

498
00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:19,320
Speaker 1: like how broken my brain is. I don't know. This

499
00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:22,879
Speaker 1: may be a peek inside my brain. I've seen this

500
00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:28,280
Speaker 1: play before and it was two thousand and two. We

501
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:33,240
Speaker 1: are sorry, twenty twenty two, excuse me, Week two Colts

502
00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,960
Speaker 1: at Jaguars, and it was run by the Jacksonville Jaguars,

503
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:41,840
Speaker 1: who lined up Christian Kirk in the backfield to the

504
00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:44,880
Speaker 1: left of Trevor Lawrence and he ran an angle route

505
00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:47,719
Speaker 1: where he got one on one on Kenny Moore. Lawrence

506
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:52,000
Speaker 1: rips the ball, throws a touchdown. I've seen this play before.

507
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:54,760
Speaker 1: You know who a offensive I believe he was the

508
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:57,480
Speaker 1: past game coordinator of the Jacksonville Jaguars was in twenty

509
00:25:57,560 --> 00:26:01,480
Speaker 1: twenty two Jim Bob Cooter's Cordator. I've a pet theory

510
00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:05,560
Speaker 1: that this play that the Colts ran is like kind

511
00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:07,879
Speaker 1: of the same thing, and I need to like really

512
00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:11,159
Speaker 1: go back and watch the film more directly. And I

513
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:14,160
Speaker 1: don't know ask Jim Bob if it was the same play,

514
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:16,720
Speaker 1: but I was like, ah, I've seen that before. You

515
00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:19,240
Speaker 1: got your your slot receiver lined up in the backfield

516
00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:21,240
Speaker 1: next to your running back out of gun and he

517
00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:22,959
Speaker 1: runs an angle route where you get one on one

518
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:24,679
Speaker 1: on the slot corner. It gets a touchdown. I'm like,

519
00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:27,680
Speaker 1: I've seen that before, saw Christian Kirk do that two

520
00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:31,520
Speaker 1: years ago. Now, whether it's a normal for someone to

521
00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:36,000
Speaker 1: think like that is up for debate, Bill, But I

522
00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:39,159
Speaker 1: love this play. You get, you know, Richardson puts the

523
00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:41,520
Speaker 1: ball exactly where it needs to go. He leads Downs

524
00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:43,960
Speaker 1: out in front of him. Downs cats catches it at

525
00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:46,080
Speaker 1: about the four yard line and does the rest getting

526
00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:48,720
Speaker 1: into the end zone. But a really nice play design.

527
00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:50,439
Speaker 1: Downs told me they kind of had that play in

528
00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:53,480
Speaker 1: for a little while and kind of been waiting to

529
00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:55,119
Speaker 1: use it, and good time to use it there. It

530
00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:56,280
Speaker 1: gets the Colts in the end zone.

531
00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,160
Speaker 3: It's a great play because you know, we have Josh

532
00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:01,840
Speaker 3: out of the backfield, and what happens when Josh comes

533
00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:04,719
Speaker 3: out the backfield, he has so much room to work with,

534
00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:07,840
Speaker 3: so the defender doesn't know exactly where he's going. Is

535
00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:10,440
Speaker 3: Josh gonna kind of go out and break out because

536
00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:13,040
Speaker 3: he's running an angle going out a little bit, or

537
00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:15,480
Speaker 3: is Josh going to come back in? So it almost

538
00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:18,240
Speaker 3: freezes the defender so he doesn't know exactly what Josh

539
00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:20,800
Speaker 3: is doing. And Josh ran a nice route, got up there,

540
00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:24,600
Speaker 3: went to a little angle out and then all of

541
00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:26,760
Speaker 3: a sudden snapped it back in where he had a

542
00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:27,760
Speaker 3: lot of space there.

543
00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:30,000
Speaker 2: That's one good thing about Josh Downs.

544
00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:33,359
Speaker 3: He has a good feel for defenders where defenders are

545
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:36,560
Speaker 3: at on the football field, finding the open spot finding

546
00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:40,480
Speaker 3: the open hole in the defense and then Anthony just

547
00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:42,000
Speaker 3: put it right on a nice play.

548
00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:43,360
Speaker 2: I like to see those plays.

549
00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:46,000
Speaker 3: Usually that plays run with the running back, but when

550
00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:49,320
Speaker 3: you put Josh back there, Josh is a special talent

551
00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:51,480
Speaker 3: and he can do those types of plays. So that's

552
00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:54,040
Speaker 3: one of the good things about Josh's a versatility where

553
00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:56,040
Speaker 3: he can come out of the backfield catch the balls.

554
00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:57,639
Speaker 3: He gonna go out wide and catch the ball. He

555
00:27:57,680 --> 00:27:59,639
Speaker 3: can do it in the slot. So it's good to

556
00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:02,960
Speaker 3: see that their the Colts are using their players in

557
00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:06,520
Speaker 3: different spots on the football field. So Josh Dow running

558
00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:08,239
Speaker 3: the angle route was big and nice to see them

559
00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:11,360
Speaker 3: catch a touchdown against the Jets tonight.

560
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:14,919
Speaker 1: All right, it actually wasn't the exact same play, because

561
00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:20,040
Speaker 1: I gotta get this out. In twenty twenty two, when

562
00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:24,840
Speaker 1: the Jaguars ran it, they had their tight end kind

563
00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:29,000
Speaker 1: of run a little like a shallow cross, had wide

564
00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:32,760
Speaker 1: receiver run a corner route, and another wide receiver run

565
00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:35,359
Speaker 1: a post, and this one Michael Pittman Junior kind of

566
00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:38,240
Speaker 1: runs like a stop route, and then you have Kylon

567
00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:43,160
Speaker 1: Granson and Alec Pierce running corner routes. But whatever it is,

568
00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:46,440
Speaker 1: you're just you're trying to get your slot guy singled

569
00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:49,920
Speaker 1: up on a dB on the slock corner, and in

570
00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:52,240
Speaker 1: both cases that's exactly what you get and it leads

571
00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:55,200
Speaker 1: to a touchdown. Anyways, that is enough memories from the

572
00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:58,880
Speaker 1: otherwise forgettable Colts Jaguars game in twenty twenty two. That's

573
00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:01,680
Speaker 1: not why you tune ye to this podcast here on

574
00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:02,720
Speaker 1: the Colts Audio Network.

575
00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:02,920
Speaker 2: Bill.

576
00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:05,680
Speaker 1: Before we continue, a quick note from our friends at

577
00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:09,280
Speaker 1: Sony this NFL season. Feel every play, every hit, every

578
00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:13,200
Speaker 1: moment with the Sony one thousand x five noise canceling headphones,

579
00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:18,040
Speaker 1: the official headphones of the Indianapolis Colts. With premium noise cancelation.

580
00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:22,120
Speaker 1: You're in the zone, no distractions, just pure football. Whether

581
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:24,400
Speaker 1: you're in your living room or on the go. You'll

582
00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:27,960
Speaker 1: never miss a beat with Sony headphones, all right, Bill.

583
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:32,760
Speaker 1: So that's kind of the nitty gritty breakdown of Richard's

584
00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:36,040
Speaker 1: like the really good stuff we saw from Richardson. But

585
00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:40,480
Speaker 1: I just want to drive this point home. Is the

586
00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:46,000
Speaker 1: New York Jets, entering Week eleven, had allowed three touchdowns

587
00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:50,160
Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter all season. Anthony Richardson led the

588
00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:52,200
Speaker 1: Colts on two drives that ended with a touchdown. He

589
00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:54,600
Speaker 1: threw one and he ran one in This is not

590
00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:59,120
Speaker 1: some rinky ding defense. This is one of the best

591
00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:02,960
Speaker 1: defenses in the NF The New York Jets also entering

592
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:06,120
Speaker 1: this week, we're allowing one hundred and sixty eight passing

593
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:08,400
Speaker 1: yards per game. Richardson put up one hundred and twenty

594
00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:11,880
Speaker 1: nine in the fourth quarter alone. This is straight up

595
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:17,560
Speaker 1: a good game from Anthony Richardson, no qualifiers, And to me, Bill,

596
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:20,600
Speaker 1: it's made even more impressive because he had to do

597
00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:23,680
Speaker 1: it on his own. The Colts were trying to run

598
00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:25,720
Speaker 1: the football in this game. They were trying to establish

599
00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:27,560
Speaker 1: the run. The Jets said, you're not going to do that.

600
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:30,480
Speaker 1: You got three rookie offensive linemen, We've got a really

601
00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:33,160
Speaker 1: good d line. We are not going to let you

602
00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:37,200
Speaker 1: run the football with Jonathan Taylor. So this game fell

603
00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:41,640
Speaker 1: on the right arm of Anthony Richardson and Bill he

604
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:45,960
Speaker 1: delivered in one of the most impressive ways we have

605
00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:48,520
Speaker 1: seen from a Colts quarterback in a long time.

606
00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:51,840
Speaker 3: Yes, and you know most teams, they try to make

607
00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:55,600
Speaker 3: teams one dimensional, and they probably said, look, we're gonna

608
00:30:55,640 --> 00:31:00,400
Speaker 3: put the game on Anthony's arm. And they probably thought that,

609
00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:01,760
Speaker 3: you know what, that was a way for them to

610
00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:02,840
Speaker 3: beat the Colts.

611
00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:08,080
Speaker 1: But that's exactly what. But that's the season's going.

612
00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:11,040
Speaker 3: That's a smart thing to do for the Jets to

613
00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:12,680
Speaker 3: do and for the defense to do, to try to

614
00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:16,160
Speaker 3: put the game in Anthony's hands in regards to let's

615
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:18,480
Speaker 3: see what he can do, because we know what Jonathan

616
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:21,040
Speaker 3: Taylor can do. Jonathan Taylor can take over a game.

617
00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:23,520
Speaker 3: So we're not going to let Jonathan Taylor get going

618
00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:26,760
Speaker 3: and get started. So you know what, they did that

619
00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:29,160
Speaker 3: and Anthony said, Okay, that's fine. I'll just go do

620
00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:32,680
Speaker 3: what I'm supposed to do. I'll make good decisions and

621
00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:36,320
Speaker 3: hopefully the good decisions will lead to points and we'll

622
00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:38,720
Speaker 3: win and you know, not make too many mistakes.

623
00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:40,120
Speaker 2: And you know, he did a nice job.

624
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:42,840
Speaker 3: He made He made real good decisions through the ball

625
00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:47,000
Speaker 3: where you're supposed to throw the ball, and when you

626
00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:49,720
Speaker 3: do that, most of the time, it's going to work

627
00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:52,000
Speaker 3: out for you. So to me, the most important thing

628
00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:54,680
Speaker 3: was making good decisions. And today was a good start

629
00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:59,000
Speaker 3: for Anthony making good decisions and executing the players out there.

630
00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:01,680
Speaker 2: And now Anthony needs to do is just build on this.

631
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:05,080
Speaker 3: He needs to look at the film, learn from mistakes,

632
00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:07,640
Speaker 3: look at the things he did well, keep those into

633
00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:10,120
Speaker 3: the back of your mind, and then just build on

634
00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:13,200
Speaker 3: that and do the same thing he did last week

635
00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:15,480
Speaker 3: or the past couple of weeks as he gets ready

636
00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:18,040
Speaker 3: to prepare for the next week's game, and then make

637
00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:21,360
Speaker 3: that a habit every week, every week and do that.

638
00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:24,400
Speaker 2: Now. I'm not saying he's going to have a great

639
00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:25,520
Speaker 2: game because.

640
00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:27,160
Speaker 3: He has a great week of practice, because a lot

641
00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:29,360
Speaker 3: of times we have a great week of practice and

642
00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:32,480
Speaker 3: things just don't work out for the game. But over time,

643
00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:35,120
Speaker 3: he would become more consistent. And that's what you want

644
00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:37,880
Speaker 3: to see. You want to see Anthony become more consistent

645
00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:40,760
Speaker 3: with his play and how he sees things on the

646
00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 3: football field and his decision making on the football field.

647
00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:47,440
Speaker 3: If he works hard all week long each week, those

648
00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:48,120
Speaker 3: things will come.

649
00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:50,120
Speaker 1: I think it's a really good point Bill to kind

650
00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:53,000
Speaker 1: of drive this home, is that one week does not

651
00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:57,560
Speaker 1: lead to sweeping conclusions about where Anthony Richardson is going.

652
00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:01,080
Speaker 1: One week does not mean the Colt plan to send

653
00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:03,840
Speaker 1: him to the bench for two weeks and then bring

654
00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:06,560
Speaker 1: him back. Was this stroke of genius that's going to

655
00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:10,160
Speaker 1: turn him into the next you know, combination of Lamar

656
00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:13,880
Speaker 1: Jackson and Cam Newton. It's one game and it was

657
00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:18,080
Speaker 1: fun as hell to watch this, but you got to

658
00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:20,400
Speaker 1: build on it. You got the de Lines coming in

659
00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:25,000
Speaker 1: next week. They look like an absolute wagon coming into Indianapolis.

660
00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:27,200
Speaker 1: This is going to be a huge test for the

661
00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:30,360
Speaker 1: Colts a week from today on Sunday's Bill, we're recording this,

662
00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:34,400
Speaker 1: but for right now, for Anthony Richardson to do this

663
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:37,720
Speaker 1: when I even I was texting someone during the game

664
00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:41,120
Speaker 1: and I was just like, even if he doesn't complete

665
00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:43,280
Speaker 1: this fourth quarter comeback, I'm gonna walk away from this

666
00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:48,520
Speaker 1: game feeling really encouraged about the direction he's going. And

667
00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:52,440
Speaker 1: I think that he completed it and the Colts won

668
00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:54,320
Speaker 1: this game obviously is going to lead to kind of it,

669
00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:56,880
Speaker 1: you know that increasing But I think when we take

670
00:33:56,920 --> 00:34:00,200
Speaker 1: a step back, this is a good start. Like you said, Bill,

671
00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:02,240
Speaker 1: you got to keep it going. You got six more

672
00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:05,600
Speaker 1: games left. You are in the AFC playoff race. If

673
00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:07,960
Speaker 1: the Colt and I've said this a couple times this

674
00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:10,200
Speaker 1: year on different podcasts, like the cults are going to

675
00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:13,120
Speaker 1: go as far as Anthony Richardson takes them this year

676
00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:16,799
Speaker 1: and today Yeah, the Jets are three and eight. There

677
00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:19,000
Speaker 1: were a really good defense. That is a really good

678
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:22,600
Speaker 1: defense they've got over there. To do this today is encouraging,

679
00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:25,239
Speaker 1: but you want to see it again. You want to

680
00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:27,719
Speaker 1: see it when you get into December. You want to

681
00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:31,880
Speaker 1: see this team start playing really good football throughout the

682
00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:34,960
Speaker 1: rest of the month of November and into December. This

683
00:34:35,120 --> 00:34:38,680
Speaker 1: was a good start, but again, like I'm trying to

684
00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:40,680
Speaker 1: balance it being like it was a good start, but

685
00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:43,520
Speaker 1: that was that was about as fun as start as

686
00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:44,200
Speaker 1: you're gonna get.

687
00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:46,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was fun. It's good to see Anthony come

688
00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:49,759
Speaker 2: out and play well. And you know what is good

689
00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:50,400
Speaker 2: to see.

690
00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:54,279
Speaker 3: That his teammates supported him while he was out for

691
00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:56,520
Speaker 3: a couple of weeks. When he got back, they were

692
00:34:56,560 --> 00:34:59,400
Speaker 3: supporting him and showing how much they loved him and

693
00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:01,880
Speaker 3: cared about him and wanted him to do well. And

694
00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:04,279
Speaker 3: now that just that must continue to still continue to

695
00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:07,400
Speaker 3: support the young man and help the young man continue

696
00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:09,680
Speaker 3: to grow, and he just has to take it upon

697
00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:11,640
Speaker 3: himself and say, hey, look, I need to get ready

698
00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:13,400
Speaker 3: to some things I need to work on, and I

699
00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:16,120
Speaker 3: want to do that for my teammates. And if he

700
00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:19,160
Speaker 3: continues to work and he takes that attitude as far

701
00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:22,160
Speaker 3: as wanting to work for his teammates. You know what,

702
00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:24,120
Speaker 3: they are going to be games where he might not

703
00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:26,359
Speaker 3: play as well, but they are going to be games

704
00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:28,560
Speaker 3: where he probably might play even better than what he

705
00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:29,200
Speaker 3: played today.

706
00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:31,320
Speaker 2: So you know, we're looking.

707
00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:34,000
Speaker 3: Forward to looking forward to those those days where he

708
00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:36,239
Speaker 3: does play well and see what he can do out

709
00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:38,680
Speaker 3: there in the football field and see how that helps

710
00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:39,880
Speaker 3: the Indianapolis Copes.

711
00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:44,600
Speaker 1: Real quick, let's chat about the defense. You know, they

712
00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:46,680
Speaker 1: got off to a great start in this game. They

713
00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:49,240
Speaker 1: did not allow a first down on New York's first

714
00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:53,279
Speaker 1: five possessions. But the Jets got into a bit of

715
00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:56,319
Speaker 1: a groove late in the first half. Once they got

716
00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:58,319
Speaker 1: that first first down, they're able to turn that into

717
00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:00,840
Speaker 1: a touchdown brist Hall. They then come out of the

718
00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:02,360
Speaker 1: second half, they're able to get on a bit of

719
00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:05,600
Speaker 1: a run, get some momentum going, and then in the

720
00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:08,040
Speaker 1: fourth quarter, the Jets are that seven and a half

721
00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:11,920
Speaker 1: minute drive where Rogers looks like he's kind of dialed

722
00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:14,680
Speaker 1: in a little bit in a way that we hadn't seen.

723
00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:17,920
Speaker 1: He's hitting that stuff to DeVante Adams that you know

724
00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:20,880
Speaker 1: you've seen time and time again with the Green Bay Packers.

725
00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:23,839
Speaker 1: Just that you know, quick sight adjustment ball out here

726
00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:28,800
Speaker 1: you go. And then the Colts defense, though, is able

727
00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:32,399
Speaker 1: to hold late on that drive and force a field goal.

728
00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:35,759
Speaker 1: Where Bill, that was fourth and two after Rogers through

729
00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:38,080
Speaker 1: that little screen, I thought the Jets are going to

730
00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:40,680
Speaker 1: go for it. They wind up trying to draw the

731
00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:43,400
Speaker 1: Colts off side. Rogers Obviously, I mean, like we know this.

732
00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:47,239
Speaker 1: Anyone who's watched football in the last twenty years is

733
00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:49,399
Speaker 1: like that. Rogers is one of the best hard count

734
00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:52,120
Speaker 1: guys in the NFL. So you try to get the

735
00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:54,320
Speaker 1: Colts to jump. But I kind of thought they should

736
00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:57,600
Speaker 1: have gone for it based on how the Colts' previous

737
00:36:57,640 --> 00:37:02,239
Speaker 1: drive it just went. And also like your season's on

738
00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:06,279
Speaker 1: the line, you put all of your eggs into the

739
00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:09,200
Speaker 1: basket of Aaron Rodgers and DeVante Adams and Garrett Wilson,

740
00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:13,439
Speaker 1: and it's fourth and two, you kick a field goal.

741
00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:16,040
Speaker 1: I don't know, I didn't you know, I like that

742
00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:21,480
Speaker 1: from our perspective, Bill, but I thought, in that moment,

743
00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:25,319
Speaker 1: you know, getting aggressive. I was a little worried they

744
00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:27,479
Speaker 1: were gonna get aggressive and have Rodgers throw it there.

745
00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:30,200
Speaker 1: But the defense does a good job they hold him

746
00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:33,040
Speaker 1: to a field goal, and then once the Colts go

747
00:37:33,120 --> 00:37:35,719
Speaker 1: down and they take the lead, then late in the

748
00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:38,280
Speaker 1: game you get Quitty pay hitting the walkoff sack.

749
00:37:39,160 --> 00:37:39,480
Speaker 2: You know that.

750
00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:42,360
Speaker 1: I think the defense probably wanted some stuff back, especially

751
00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:45,320
Speaker 1: in the second half. But ultimately, the way they started

752
00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:47,480
Speaker 1: this game and then the way that they finished this

753
00:37:47,600 --> 00:37:50,919
Speaker 1: game on the last couple of plays were certainly enough

754
00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:52,359
Speaker 1: for the Colts to win this football game.

755
00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:54,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, it wasn't enough for the Coats to win a

756
00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:58,240
Speaker 3: football game. I think the thought process, if I'm not mistaken,

757
00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:01,799
Speaker 3: if I read something after the game, I think the

758
00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:04,120
Speaker 3: coach said that, you know what, he had faith in

759
00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:06,560
Speaker 3: his defense and that if they got up by more

760
00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:10,640
Speaker 3: than three points, he phil figured that their defense and

761
00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:13,840
Speaker 3: just defense could get the Coats from getting a touchdown

762
00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:14,280
Speaker 3: and it's.

763
00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:17,600
Speaker 2: Getting a field goal, so and then that would have

764
00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:19,200
Speaker 2: helped them win the game.

765
00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:22,200
Speaker 3: But they didn't count on the coach going down the field,

766
00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:24,920
Speaker 3: driving down the field and scoring a touchdown. And uh,

767
00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:27,040
Speaker 3: and that's what that's what happened.

768
00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:29,480
Speaker 2: So, uh, you know, give the coach credit.

769
00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:32,799
Speaker 3: And you know what, I did think that they were

770
00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:34,920
Speaker 3: going to go for it and try to put it away,

771
00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:38,000
Speaker 3: knowing how Aaron Rodgers thanks.

772
00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:39,600
Speaker 2: He's very aggressive quarterback.

773
00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:42,279
Speaker 3: He has a lot of confidence in himself, a lot

774
00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:45,680
Speaker 3: of confidence in Devonte Adams and also the other players

775
00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:48,360
Speaker 3: out there. So they wanted to go out there and

776
00:38:48,880 --> 00:38:51,960
Speaker 3: I'm sure probably go for it, but the coach said

777
00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:55,080
Speaker 3: he had confidence in the defense, and unfortunately defense let

778
00:38:55,120 --> 00:38:57,560
Speaker 3: him down. But no, those are things that happened, you

779
00:38:57,560 --> 00:39:00,880
Speaker 3: know what, they didn't go for it, and they worked

780
00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:03,480
Speaker 3: out for the Colts in their favorite Colts went down

781
00:39:03,520 --> 00:39:05,600
Speaker 3: and score a touchdown to win the game.

782
00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:08,560
Speaker 1: So the Colts bill again. They improved to five and

783
00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:12,880
Speaker 1: six on the season. It's to you know, if this

784
00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:16,960
Speaker 1: all continues, the Colts are not done in the division yet.

785
00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:21,520
Speaker 1: But that week fifteen game or U yeah, week fifteen game,

786
00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:24,160
Speaker 1: excuse me against the Denver Broncos, that is looking like

787
00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:28,399
Speaker 1: the big one this season, you know, if things kind

788
00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:32,840
Speaker 1: of continue the way they're going for the way you

789
00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:36,480
Speaker 1: know this this twenty twenty four season, which I don't know,

790
00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:39,400
Speaker 1: I mean, trying to project out beyond next week is

791
00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:42,239
Speaker 1: also probably kind of foolish. But just a circle back

792
00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:46,759
Speaker 1: game against Denver in mid December, that's another road game

793
00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:48,720
Speaker 1: and Bill. You know, I travel a lot during the season,

794
00:39:48,800 --> 00:39:51,400
Speaker 1: and I couldn't live without these Sony one thousand XM

795
00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:54,960
Speaker 1: five noise canceling headphones. Whether I'm listening to music on

796
00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:57,040
Speaker 1: the plane or trying to listen back to interviews I

797
00:39:57,080 --> 00:39:59,880
Speaker 1: conduct in the postgame locker room, the premium noise canceling

798
00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:03,279
Speaker 1: these headphones provide keeps me in the zone, whether I'm

799
00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:05,600
Speaker 1: relaxing or working. And when I'm at home, these are

800
00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:07,479
Speaker 1: great for just hearing you, Bill and keeping me locked

801
00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:09,879
Speaker 1: into our podcast, or for just hanging out around the house.

802
00:40:10,239 --> 00:40:12,560
Speaker 1: Take it for me. These are my favorite headphones I've

803
00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:15,680
Speaker 1: ever owned. The Sony one thousand XM five headphones are

804
00:40:15,719 --> 00:40:20,000
Speaker 1: the official headphones of the Indianapolis Colts. All Right, that

805
00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:22,320
Speaker 1: is going to do it for us here, Bill, unless

806
00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:24,799
Speaker 1: you get anything else you want to throw in about

807
00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:27,480
Speaker 1: this game. I mean, I think we kind of covered

808
00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:33,279
Speaker 1: a lot with regard to Anthony Richardson, but boyt's great

809
00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:37,200
Speaker 1: to talk about the success the Colts had on offense.

810
00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:39,239
Speaker 1: A one other note I had. I wrote this down

811
00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:43,640
Speaker 1: and I don't want it to get lost here. The

812
00:40:43,719 --> 00:40:45,799
Speaker 1: Colts held the ball in this game, Bill for thirty

813
00:40:45,840 --> 00:40:49,439
Speaker 1: four minutes. And seventeen seconds. Their previous high this year

814
00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:51,560
Speaker 1: was thirty one minutes and thirty two seconds, and that

815
00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:54,959
Speaker 1: was against the Jaguars in Week five. That's the only

816
00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:57,000
Speaker 1: other game this year Bill the Colts have had They've

817
00:40:57,000 --> 00:41:00,520
Speaker 1: possessed the ball more than their opponent. So you got

818
00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:03,560
Speaker 1: the rhythm, you converted a little bit on third down,

819
00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:07,400
Speaker 1: You were able to complete a lot of passes in

820
00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:10,080
Speaker 1: this game, and boom, there you go. You keep the

821
00:41:10,120 --> 00:41:12,560
Speaker 1: ball for thirty four minutes and you go down and

822
00:41:12,600 --> 00:41:14,279
Speaker 1: win a football game. That's got to feel pretty nice

823
00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:14,680
Speaker 1: in there.

824
00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:17,000
Speaker 3: It does feel I'm sure it does feel nice for

825
00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:19,080
Speaker 3: those guys. And give the defense credit as well. I mean,

826
00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:22,200
Speaker 3: getting those the Jets off the field and a number

827
00:41:22,200 --> 00:41:25,000
Speaker 3: of three and outs and they played well. And another

828
00:41:25,040 --> 00:41:27,239
Speaker 3: person I want to kind of say something about it.

829
00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:29,560
Speaker 3: I thought that played pretty well with Jayleen Jones. J

830
00:41:29,800 --> 00:41:31,839
Speaker 3: Jones had a good day today. He played well, And

831
00:41:31,880 --> 00:41:32,600
Speaker 3: give him credit.

832
00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:36,680
Speaker 2: The young man's battling every week. He's playing well, playing hard,

833
00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:38,120
Speaker 2: and he did a nice job.

834
00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:40,759
Speaker 3: So I thought the defense did a nice job of

835
00:41:41,239 --> 00:41:42,840
Speaker 3: definitely limiting.

836
00:41:43,840 --> 00:41:45,480
Speaker 2: The Jets from how many plays they had.

837
00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:49,680
Speaker 3: Limiting the Jets as far as the time they had

838
00:41:49,680 --> 00:41:52,080
Speaker 3: the ball time possession and allowed they had to do

839
00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:55,759
Speaker 3: the defense getting them off the field number three and

840
00:41:55,800 --> 00:41:56,600
Speaker 3: outs in.

841
00:41:56,520 --> 00:41:59,400
Speaker 2: The beginning of the game. So give a defense credit.

842
00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:02,200
Speaker 2: I thought they play well, especially in the first half.

843
00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:04,799
Speaker 1: Another guy I want to quickly shout out here on

844
00:42:04,880 --> 00:42:06,600
Speaker 1: defensive layout to a lot to I thought had a

845
00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:09,480
Speaker 1: really nice Yes he got you got some pressure, he

846
00:42:09,520 --> 00:42:13,959
Speaker 1: got a sack, blew up a screen, or a little

847
00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:17,560
Speaker 1: swing pass. Excuse me, I thought he was in the

848
00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:21,120
Speaker 1: backfield a decent amount, pressuring Rogers getting at the pocket.

849
00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:23,520
Speaker 1: And this is not a game where you would expect

850
00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:25,239
Speaker 1: to get a ton of sacks because Rogers gets the

851
00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:27,640
Speaker 1: ball out quick. But you can really start to come

852
00:42:27,719 --> 00:42:30,680
Speaker 1: together for a lot too, and that is obviously very

853
00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:34,080
Speaker 1: very encouraging. As we hit the stretch run of the

854
00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:35,400
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four season.

855
00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:39,319
Speaker 3: Oh yes, it's important for you know, him to kind

856
00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:41,360
