1
00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:05,840
Speaker 1: We're back for round two this week of the Official

2
00:00:05,840 --> 00:00:08,719
Speaker 1: Colts Podcast. Thanks for tuning in here on YouTube and

3
00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:11,959
Speaker 1: the Colts Audio Network with Bill Brooks, Ring of honor

4
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:15,360
Speaker 1: wide receiver Casey Valley. I am Matt Taylor. We're getting

5
00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:19,280
Speaker 1: ready today for Colts and Titans week number six, another

6
00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:23,360
Speaker 1: AFC South game on the road for the Indianapolis Colts.

7
00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:25,680
Speaker 1: And I'm not being funny fellas. How about this weather.

8
00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:28,680
Speaker 1: This is our what second summer, I guess here at

9
00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:32,599
Speaker 1: Central indian I was driving down the road the other

10
00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:35,960
Speaker 1: day and I think it was like a McDonald's or

11
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:38,280
Speaker 1: Burger King, you know, one of those fast food signs.

12
00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:44,040
Speaker 1: It said seven am winter, it said ten am spring,

13
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:49,680
Speaker 1: three pm summer and seven pm winter. Again, that's the

14
00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:53,240
Speaker 1: weather that we were having about it in Central nowadays

15
00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:56,320
Speaker 1: here in the fall. And in all seriousness, speaking of weather,

16
00:00:56,400 --> 00:01:00,080
Speaker 1: our thoughts and concerns and prayers are to those dealing

17
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:02,840
Speaker 1: with the hurricane the high winds down in Florida. So

18
00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:05,720
Speaker 1: that's no joke. Our good friend Rick Venturrey's got a

19
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:09,559
Speaker 1: place down there, and you know they were hit once

20
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:11,759
Speaker 1: hard a couple of weeks ago, and I think they're

21
00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:15,840
Speaker 1: getting hit harder even even more so this go around.

22
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 1: So again, everybody down in Florida, we were thinking about you.

23
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:23,000
Speaker 1: So it's it's certainly a difficult time to see all

24
00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:25,920
Speaker 1: those images and the radar and things like that. But

25
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:27,840
Speaker 1: we came here to talk about football. So that's what

26
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:30,560
Speaker 1: we're gonna do here, fellas. As I said, the culture

27
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 1: now two and three and trying to avoid an zero

28
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:37,160
Speaker 1: and three start to begin the season inside the AFC South.

29
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:39,360
Speaker 1: So we're gonna talk about that. We're gonna roll out

30
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 1: a round of what I call buy in or keep

31
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:45,080
Speaker 1: trying right some statements around this game, whether or not

32
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:48,080
Speaker 1: they're true or false, and you know some of the

33
00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:51,600
Speaker 1: implications that are gonna come out from from Sunday's game. Also,

34
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 1: love this guy, running back Tyler Goodson is going to

35
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 1: join us here on the podcast today. Good he had

36
00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:58,840
Speaker 1: a lot of runs and some good catches out of

37
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:02,320
Speaker 1: the backfield last week and Jacksonville, and with Jonathan Taylor's

38
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:06,160
Speaker 1: health still in TBD status as of right now, he's obviously,

39
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:08,320
Speaker 1: you know, gonna play a big role and could play

40
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,080
Speaker 1: an even bigger role if Jonathan Taylor can't go down

41
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:12,959
Speaker 1: in Tennessee. And then we're gonna close out the show

42
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:15,480
Speaker 1: with a quick dive and what makes the Titans a

43
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 1: very formidable foe coming up on Sunday despite them being

44
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 1: one and three on the season, But they are coming

45
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:24,360
Speaker 1: off of bye, so they are arrested, and they're coming

46
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:27,040
Speaker 1: off their first win last time out for them against

47
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:30,520
Speaker 1: the Miami Dolphins. But the big story here, fella is Casey.

48
00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:33,239
Speaker 1: It's a jumble mess right now in the AFC. I

49
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:35,440
Speaker 1: think the Colts are one of what five teams right

50
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 1: now that have two wins and three losses, So despite

51
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:43,360
Speaker 1: some uneven play, the Colts still have everything in front

52
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:44,440
Speaker 1: of them to make the playoffs.

53
00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:45,959
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I want to say the number. I

54
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:48,320
Speaker 2: may be wrong on this, but I think it's twenty seven.

55
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:50,800
Speaker 2: Teams are either two and three or three and two.

56
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,079
Speaker 2: So I mean the whole NFL is kind of dealing

57
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 2: with those, Yeah, at least those, So I mean essentially

58
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:57,760
Speaker 2: where the Colts are, that's kind of what everybody else

59
00:02:57,800 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 2: is dealing with.

60
00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:00,560
Speaker 1: And ultimately we're you are.

61
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:02,600
Speaker 2: You just want to have a chance, and the Colts

62
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 2: clearly are sitting there with an opportunity. You got a

63
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:08,440
Speaker 2: couple games here in a row where the opponent has

64
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:12,079
Speaker 2: dealt with their circumstances they've had, so you can kind

65
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 2: of take advantage of those for sure. I mean the

66
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:16,440
Speaker 2: Titans and the Dolphins and back to back weeks. So

67
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:19,959
Speaker 2: you look at the schedule desperately some areas where the

68
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,560
Speaker 2: Colts can attack, some areas and get some winnable games here.

69
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 2: But it all starts with the Colts doing what they

70
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 2: need to do. And that's I'm sure we're going.

71
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 1: To talk about. And we also have to lead off

72
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:31,600
Speaker 1: with injuries, and my goodness, this team has so many

73
00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:34,680
Speaker 1: of them. But the latest one is Michael Pittman Junior,

74
00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:37,640
Speaker 1: dealing with the back injury. Now nothing official from the Colts.

75
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 1: Didn't practice on Wednesday, but according to multiple credible reports,

76
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:45,600
Speaker 1: including ESPN and Adam Schefter, the NFL Network, among others,

77
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:48,960
Speaker 1: he might miss some time all right, So his status

78
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 1: for Sunday's game is certainly in jeopardy. Bill, nobody knows

79
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 1: that position better than you. When you factor in what

80
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:58,640
Speaker 1: Pittman has done, what he can do, the reliability that

81
00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:01,600
Speaker 1: he brings to this team. Uh, this is just another

82
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 1: you know, just another chink in the armor of the

83
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:09,080
Speaker 1: Colts offense. You know, Anthony Richardson might not play Jonathan Taylor,

84
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 1: as we said, still a little bit TBD. How much

85
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:16,240
Speaker 1: more can this team withstand in order to sustain. I

86
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 1: know it's always next man up, Bill, but you know,

87
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 1: at some point you kind of reach a breaking point,

88
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:22,760
Speaker 1: do you know. I mean, it's just hard to hear

89
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:24,200
Speaker 1: all of this news about injuries.

90
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:27,120
Speaker 3: It's very tough to hear all this news about injuries,

91
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:30,520
Speaker 3: as you stated, especially with Mike Pitt, knowing that his

92
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:33,280
Speaker 3: the key word you said there was reliability. You know

93
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:36,039
Speaker 3: each and every game going into a game that Pitt's

94
00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:38,479
Speaker 3: gonna show up, He's gonna play, He's gonna be there,

95
00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:40,520
Speaker 3: you get the ball to him, he's gonna make the catchers,

96
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:42,360
Speaker 3: he's gonna make the runs after the catch, he's gonna

97
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 3: make the blocks that need to be made in the

98
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,479
Speaker 3: running game as well. So that's that's a blow for

99
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:50,560
Speaker 3: the Colts offense. But as you said, next man up,

100
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,920
Speaker 3: Ashton Dulan, is it a d Mitchell or someone has

101
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:55,960
Speaker 3: to step up and make some plays out there, and

102
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,360
Speaker 3: I think they will step up, but it's gonna be

103
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,520
Speaker 3: tough to replace that reduction for Pitt and what he

104
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 3: means out there for that offense.

105
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:06,279
Speaker 1: Who slides into that role or maybe better asked is

106
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:10,279
Speaker 1: how does the offense morph and evolve? Because Pittman is

107
00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 1: so big with volume of catches, especially in the middle

108
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:16,520
Speaker 1: of the field, who steps into that part of the

109
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,280
Speaker 1: offense if you want to continue to rake in the

110
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:21,839
Speaker 1: catches that Michael Pittman Junior does in that capacity.

111
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:23,360
Speaker 3: I mean, you've heard in the past that they'd like

112
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:25,040
Speaker 3: to rotate guys in there, so it can be a

113
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:28,000
Speaker 3: different bunch of guys that can move guys inside or outside.

114
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 3: You know, you could probably move Alec in there, maybe

115
00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 3: a little bit. We mentioned Ashton Doulan in there, but

116
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:34,800
Speaker 3: it wouldn't surprise me if they change the personnel and

117
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:37,600
Speaker 3: have maybe multiple tight ends in there, have another tight

118
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:40,280
Speaker 3: end inside, maybe line up and tight and use that

119
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:43,400
Speaker 3: as far as another change up for what they do.

120
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:45,919
Speaker 3: So I think they could put anybody, not anybody in there.

121
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:47,679
Speaker 3: They could put a lot of different people in there,

122
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:51,320
Speaker 3: But I think of like Ashton pretty much can go

123
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:55,479
Speaker 3: in there and run some plays from that inside slot position.

124
00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:57,480
Speaker 4: Because he's big, he's tough, he's physical.

125
00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:00,520
Speaker 3: And you can handle all the volume that that it

126
00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:02,159
Speaker 3: takes to run the offense.

127
00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:04,799
Speaker 1: From there in case he real quick. Everybody's talking about

128
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:08,360
Speaker 1: Alec Pierce and his explosions in the offense, right, He's

129
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:11,599
Speaker 1: got he leads the NFL and catches over forty he's

130
00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:15,680
Speaker 1: got two touchdowns over sixty, and everybody's wondering around the

131
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:18,040
Speaker 1: water cooler, Hey, why can't we get this guy more

132
00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:20,560
Speaker 1: involved earlier in the game because he had three catches

133
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:22,880
Speaker 1: over one hundred yards last week and they all came

134
00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter as the Colts scored twenty four

135
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,599
Speaker 1: points in the final quarter to come back and tie

136
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:31,160
Speaker 1: the game late. Can could I mean, hypothetically, could Alec

137
00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:34,719
Speaker 1: Pierce be more of a I mean, he's I hate

138
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:36,320
Speaker 1: to call him a one trick pony because I think

139
00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 1: he's certainly more than that. But could he have more

140
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:43,359
Speaker 1: of a variety of route combinations and routes run in

141
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 1: this game without Michael Pittman Junior.

142
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:46,159
Speaker 4: I believe so.

143
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:48,440
Speaker 2: And I think part of it too is and Alex

144
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 2: even talked about it in locker room this week, is

145
00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:53,800
Speaker 2: there's a handful of guys that do a bunch of things.

146
00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 2: So you know, you talk about the one trick pony,

147
00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 2: but that is one thing where you know he excels

148
00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:01,160
Speaker 2: a little bit better than some of the other guys,

149
00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,320
Speaker 2: so that's kind of what they have his so good.

150
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,080
Speaker 2: I mean, it's at the point where, I mean even

151
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,360
Speaker 2: Richardson said it's not even fifty to fifty. They view

152
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:10,600
Speaker 2: it as almost ninety nine to one because he's gonna

153
00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:12,400
Speaker 2: come down with almost every one.

154
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:13,480
Speaker 1: Of those fifty fifty balls.

155
00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:16,440
Speaker 2: So ultimately, I think that's why you see that as

156
00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:19,080
Speaker 2: his role. But I do think that there is more

157
00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:21,680
Speaker 2: to what Alec Pierce can do. And you take away

158
00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:25,120
Speaker 2: on Michael Pittman, who Pittman can do at all, So

159
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:27,520
Speaker 2: you've got to look at how it's going to be

160
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:30,000
Speaker 2: able to be, you know, that role. It's not going

161
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:31,720
Speaker 2: to be one guy just steps in. It's going to

162
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:33,680
Speaker 2: be a handful of guys. But I do think that

163
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:36,480
Speaker 2: this will open the door to kind of show more

164
00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:39,280
Speaker 2: of what that route tree is for Alec Pierce. You

165
00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:42,360
Speaker 2: talk about Ashton Doole and Ady Mitchell, Josh Downs, those guys,

166
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:44,680
Speaker 2: they all kind of have their role. But now when

167
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:46,720
Speaker 2: you take away one of the key guys who does

168
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 2: a handful of different roles, it's going to make some

169
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:50,840
Speaker 2: other guys step up. And I think Alec Pierce is

170
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:51,640
Speaker 2: the perfect guy to do that.

171
00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:53,960
Speaker 1: Yeah. Hey, before we go further, Bill, can we comment

172
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:56,480
Speaker 1: on Casey's haircut? Can we get some comments on the

173
00:07:56,520 --> 00:08:00,680
Speaker 1: YouTube chat about Hasey case fresh Man?

174
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:03,280
Speaker 2: Thanks, guys, I appreciate it. I knew I was on

175
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:05,400
Speaker 2: camera today. I figured it's time to get rid of

176
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:08,480
Speaker 2: the mop top I had and and go with something fresh.

177
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:10,600
Speaker 1: So is that what you said when you went in

178
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:12,720
Speaker 1: and you sat down the chair. I need to get rid.

179
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 4: Of the mop t This is gone, you guys.

180
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,520
Speaker 1: I appreciate the comments are flooding right now on YouTube.

181
00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:22,560
Speaker 1: By the way, you know, mark the tape as they say,

182
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:24,960
Speaker 1: like a Robert Downey Junior is on the set here

183
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,560
Speaker 1: with us here today? All right, buying or keep trying?

184
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:30,240
Speaker 1: You guys? Ready? Yeah, all right, here we go. Let's

185
00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:34,160
Speaker 1: debate some statements and let's see if they have some validity,

186
00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:37,559
Speaker 1: if you will for Sunday's game. All right, this game

187
00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:40,800
Speaker 1: is a make or break game for the Colts if

188
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:43,679
Speaker 1: they want any shot at winning the AFC. South you

189
00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:45,600
Speaker 1: buying or you got to keep trying.

190
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:48,080
Speaker 2: I'm gonna say keep trying just because we are early,

191
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:51,920
Speaker 2: but boy, it is close, because I think that there's

192
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:54,840
Speaker 2: still there is still a lot of football.

193
00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:55,480
Speaker 1: Man.

194
00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:57,760
Speaker 2: I know, sitting next to Bill Brooks, he is not

195
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:00,600
Speaker 2: must win guy, so I know he's probably a little

196
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:02,720
Speaker 2: bit more in agreement with me on this one. But

197
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:05,080
Speaker 2: I do think that there is still a lot of

198
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 2: football to be played. But if this is one you lose,

199
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:10,080
Speaker 2: it really puts you behind the eight Billy. A loss

200
00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:12,560
Speaker 2: would put the Colts at oh and three in the division.

201
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,320
Speaker 2: Last year, the Texans won the AFC South with a

202
00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 2: divisional record of four and two, Plus they are already

203
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:22,520
Speaker 2: two in er inside the AFC South. I'm not saying

204
00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:24,560
Speaker 2: the Texans are going to run away with the division,

205
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:28,000
Speaker 2: but if you lose this game, I'm buying it. I

206
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:29,800
Speaker 2: think it's going to be really tough for the Colts

207
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:31,760
Speaker 2: to win the AFC South. If you start oh and

208
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:35,120
Speaker 2: three in your first divisional first three divisional games.

209
00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 4: I think it's I'm not buying it. Wow, I'm not

210
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:38,880
Speaker 4: buying I say.

211
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:39,400
Speaker 1: Keep trying.

212
00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:43,959
Speaker 3: And the reason I said because for one back in

213
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 3: twenty twenty two, I think it was Cincinnati Bengals started

214
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,280
Speaker 3: owing three in the division and they won the division.

215
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:53,520
Speaker 4: Okay, so it can be done. So that's what I'm saying,

216
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:54,520
Speaker 4: it can be done.

217
00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 3: And I think the coach, you know, if they if

218
00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 3: they do start owing three, they still have a shot

219
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:01,520
Speaker 3: because Houston has a tough schedule.

220
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:03,520
Speaker 1: You're playing the first place schedule.

221
00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:05,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, and they have I think they have the Packers left,

222
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:08,800
Speaker 3: the Coats, the Lions, the Cowboys, Chiefs, and Ravens still

223
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,880
Speaker 3: left in this schedule, so anything can happen. They've got

224
00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:15,000
Speaker 3: some injuries now, Nicole Collins is out for a little bit, So.

225
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:16,720
Speaker 1: Can we all just agree that it's gonna be tough.

226
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 1: It's but I will say this, it will be se

227
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:25,400
Speaker 1: the toughness it will be. It will be an uphill battle.

228
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:27,880
Speaker 3: And if you go into this game and say you

229
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:30,840
Speaker 3: don't win this game, you're two and four, and you

230
00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,760
Speaker 3: say Houston wins that game against New England this week,

231
00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:35,680
Speaker 3: they're five and one, so you're three and a half

232
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:39,800
Speaker 3: games back. That's a tough tough road to climb to

233
00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,839
Speaker 3: get back into, uh, you know, being in contention for

234
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:46,400
Speaker 3: winning that AFC South Division. So it is tough, but uh,

235
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 3: you know, it just got to play the each game.

236
00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:49,040
Speaker 3: It's gotta go out there and play each game and

237
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:52,040
Speaker 3: take one week at a time not look at the overall, big,

238
00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:54,880
Speaker 3: big picture of trying to get up on top right away.

239
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:57,160
Speaker 1: This is a huge game, though. Believe the winner of

240
00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,439
Speaker 1: this game is going to be in second place in

241
00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:02,640
Speaker 1: the AFC South coming up on Sunday, despite both teams

242
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:06,120
Speaker 1: right now having under five hundred records, all right, buying

243
00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:08,439
Speaker 1: or keep trying on this bad boy? All right? Despite

244
00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:12,240
Speaker 1: Joe Flacco's great numbers, the Colts are making the right

245
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:16,160
Speaker 1: move by turning the offense back over to Anthony Richardson

246
00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:18,840
Speaker 1: if and when he's healthy. And again, I don't know

247
00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:21,280
Speaker 1: if that's going to be on Sunday, but Shane Flatt

248
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:26,440
Speaker 1: or Shape called him Shane flacko Shane stikin the combination

249
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 1: of Shane Stikeen, Joe Flacco, and Shane Shall it's God,

250
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:38,400
Speaker 1: all right, mark the tape redo. Shane Steichen is already

251
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:41,000
Speaker 1: on record this week, and I think rightfully so saying

252
00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:44,760
Speaker 1: that Anthony Richardson is our quarterback if he's healthy enough

253
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:47,160
Speaker 1: to go or when he's healthy enough to go, that's

254
00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:49,240
Speaker 1: the right move. You buying that or keep trying that?

255
00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:51,160
Speaker 4: Bill, Oh, I'm buying that definitely.

256
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:53,640
Speaker 3: I think it's the right move to have him get

257
00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:58,040
Speaker 3: back in there, because look, you drafted him that high.

258
00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:00,440
Speaker 4: He needs the experience he needs to get out there.

259
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:02,959
Speaker 1: Despite all of what Joe Flacco has done from an

260
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 1: interact and this.

261
00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:05,640
Speaker 4: This is nothing against Joe Flacco.

262
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:08,560
Speaker 3: Joe Flacco has done exactly what they asked him to

263
00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:11,800
Speaker 3: do and did it well in the past two games.

264
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:13,960
Speaker 3: So give Joe Flacco a lot of credit for that.

265
00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:16,520
Speaker 3: And I don't think we expected anything different from Joe Flacco.

266
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:18,120
Speaker 3: He just did what we thought he was going to do.

267
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:22,200
Speaker 3: But Anthony Richardson is the quarterback that you want to

268
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:25,680
Speaker 3: give experience to see what he can do out there.

269
00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:28,440
Speaker 3: And knowing that the talent he has, the things that

270
00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:30,800
Speaker 3: he can do would be an asset to this team

271
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:32,960
Speaker 3: and be an asset to the offense, and I think

272
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,280
Speaker 3: you have to give him the opportunity to learn and

273
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:37,280
Speaker 3: to grow. And only way's going to do that is

274
00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:40,320
Speaker 3: by playing. So yes, get him back in there as

275
00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:42,560
Speaker 3: the guy to run the offense, all.

276
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:46,160
Speaker 1: Right, case he so far this year, Anthony Richardson completing

277
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:49,000
Speaker 1: fifty percent of his passes, He's thrown six picks. That's

278
00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:53,360
Speaker 1: a league high. Joe Flacco completing seventy percent of his

279
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 1: passes no picks. Anthony Richardson's yards per attempt that ranks third,

280
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:02,760
Speaker 1: but his passting is sixty that ranks last in the

281
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:07,319
Speaker 1: NFL among qualified quarterbacks. Meanwhile, Joe Flacco has thrown five

282
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:10,920
Speaker 1: touchdown passes and the last seven quarters has a passer

283
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,360
Speaker 1: rating of one p fifteen that ranks first in the

284
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:16,800
Speaker 1: NFL here at the moment, but I still think I

285
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:20,720
Speaker 1: agree with with Bill. I think the Colts are making

286
00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 1: the right move. You don't draft Anthony Richardson fourth overall

287
00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:26,600
Speaker 1: if you're not willing to go through the speed bumps.

288
00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:28,760
Speaker 1: And the only way you smooth out the road by

289
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:31,480
Speaker 1: going over the speed bumps is by doing it. That's

290
00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:32,560
Speaker 1: by playing right.

291
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,319
Speaker 2: You're spot on it. I'm right there with both of you, guys.

292
00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:36,920
Speaker 2: I'm buying it because.

293
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:40,000
Speaker 1: You knew it was good. You knew there were Joe Flacco,

294
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:42,160
Speaker 1: who's great. Yes, he's not going to be here in

295
00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:45,440
Speaker 1: the long term, right, and you knew that's the I

296
00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:47,520
Speaker 1: hate to keep interrupting you. I'm sorry, but it's just

297
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:51,560
Speaker 1: that's the unfortunate part about what Joe Flacco does. You know,

298
00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:53,400
Speaker 1: he comes in and he gives the Golts a great

299
00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:55,640
Speaker 1: chance to win. And now there's a section of the

300
00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:57,880
Speaker 1: fan base that says, stick with that guy because it's

301
00:13:57,880 --> 00:13:59,920
Speaker 1: all about the now. And yes, it's about the now,

302
00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:03,600
Speaker 1: but it's also about the bigger picture, you know, beyond

303
00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:04,679
Speaker 1: this season.

304
00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 2: Anthony Richardson at the moment is your franchise quarterback. You

305
00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:12,080
Speaker 2: don't draft a guy where the Colts drafted him and

306
00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:16,720
Speaker 2: move away because you know he gets hurt and somebody

307
00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:18,800
Speaker 2: else steps in that that's not a reason for them

308
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:21,000
Speaker 2: to say, Okay, we got we gotta hold the whole.

309
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,680
Speaker 2: I mean, ultimately you're taking a pause on the future,

310
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:27,240
Speaker 2: on the whole franchise if you go that route and

311
00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:29,480
Speaker 2: you have to let this one play out. You knew

312
00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:32,560
Speaker 2: you were gonna have ups and downs through Anthony Richardson

313
00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:36,080
Speaker 2: because of all of the lack of experience that he's.

314
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:38,280
Speaker 1: Had and the fact that he'd got hurt last ye yes.

315
00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:39,840
Speaker 2: I mean he got hurt last year. But you also

316
00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,480
Speaker 2: knew prior to last year he had played X amount

317
00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:44,680
Speaker 2: of games and you know, since he graduated high school,

318
00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:47,040
Speaker 2: it was a number thirteen heading into the NFL. So

319
00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:49,440
Speaker 2: then you throw in four games from last year still

320
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:51,720
Speaker 2: at such a small sample site. So there are gonna

321
00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:53,520
Speaker 2: be growing pains, there are gonna be ups and downs.

322
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 2: You talk about the yards per attempt, the air yards

323
00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:59,680
Speaker 2: per play. I mean, he's electric. All of those things

324
00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:01,840
Speaker 2: play it, but the completion percentage, you want it to

325
00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:04,720
Speaker 2: be better. So there's that fine balance. You're trying to

326
00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:07,480
Speaker 2: find that middle ground with all of that, and if

327
00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:09,840
Speaker 2: you don't go back to him, you'll never be able

328
00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:11,920
Speaker 2: to figure out where that is. And it's also gonna

329
00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:14,000
Speaker 2: stunt his growth. So absolutely this is the right call.

330
00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:15,440
Speaker 2: If he's healthy, he's the guy.

331
00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:21,320
Speaker 1: I agree and saying that, Joe Flacco comes in and

332
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:24,800
Speaker 1: he is just so impressive. You know, it sounds like

333
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:26,720
Speaker 1: I'm talking out of both sides of my mouth. Yes,

334
00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:29,920
Speaker 1: and I'm trying to do a better job of making

335
00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:32,840
Speaker 1: my point and stay on course. But the thing is

336
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 1: is like Joe Flacco is here for a reason, and

337
00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:39,680
Speaker 1: the reason is Anthony Richardson bangs up his hip and

338
00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:44,000
Speaker 1: he still guides the Colts to a win. And quite frankly,

339
00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:46,160
Speaker 1: last Sunday should have been a win when you score

340
00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:47,680
Speaker 1: thirty three or four points. And we're going to talk

341
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:51,040
Speaker 1: about the defense, but this is why you bring in

342
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:53,400
Speaker 1: a veteran quarterback. This is why you bring in Gardner

343
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:56,000
Speaker 1: Minshew last year. This is why Joe Flacco is here

344
00:15:56,080 --> 00:16:01,280
Speaker 1: this year to smooth out the instances where Anthony Richardson

345
00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:03,760
Speaker 1: is not able to go. You just want to make

346
00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:07,280
Speaker 1: sure that you know, the fifty rate of him missing

347
00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:09,720
Speaker 1: games does not hold up any longer. Right where He's

348
00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:11,760
Speaker 1: played eight games and he's been knocked out of four

349
00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:12,040
Speaker 1: of them.

350
00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:13,520
Speaker 3: Right, you want to give you a team a chance

351
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:16,760
Speaker 3: to win football games if Anthony Richardson is not in there.

352
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:20,280
Speaker 3: You know, Joe Flako can run the offense. He's been around,

353
00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:23,000
Speaker 3: He's seen a lot of different things. He understands the offense.

354
00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:25,400
Speaker 3: And the man still has an arm.

355
00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:28,160
Speaker 4: I mean he's still can pierce.

356
00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:28,560
Speaker 5: Yeah.

357
00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:31,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean he's still can throw the ball. I

358
00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:34,800
Speaker 3: mean he's back there, he's calm, he's cool. Uh, he

359
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:36,760
Speaker 3: can read defenses. He gets the ball out of his

360
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:40,120
Speaker 3: hands quick once he hits his backstep, and then he

361
00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:41,680
Speaker 3: gets the ball right to the guys and they can

362
00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:43,640
Speaker 3: make nice runs after the catch.

363
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:44,880
Speaker 1: Yeah.

364
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:46,720
Speaker 4: I mean, he's just the balls out is there.

365
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:50,480
Speaker 3: And he did show a little bit of speed again,

366
00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:54,360
Speaker 3: thirty nine year old, he's still new, you know, so

367
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:55,480
Speaker 3: he's still can move.

368
00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:58,080
Speaker 4: But it was good to see.

369
00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:00,880
Speaker 3: Joe play, and I mean, I'm happy for him. Yeah,

370
00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:02,960
Speaker 3: I'm sure he probably wants to play more. I mean,

371
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:04,679
Speaker 3: who doesn't. I mean, if you're a competitor, you want

372
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:06,520
Speaker 3: to get out there and playing more. But he understands

373
00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:08,480
Speaker 3: what his role is with this team and he went

374
00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:09,280
Speaker 3: out there and he did it.

375
00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:12,520
Speaker 1: All right, Buying or keep trying? The Colts defense needs

376
00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:16,320
Speaker 1: to make major changes in order to reroute the course

377
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:19,760
Speaker 1: of this season. All right, some context here. The defense

378
00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:23,160
Speaker 1: really banged up a lot of injuries, but last week

379
00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:26,720
Speaker 1: it allowed season highs and points with thirty seven total

380
00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:30,360
Speaker 1: yards in four ninety seven and passing yards at three

381
00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:33,840
Speaker 1: seventy one to the Jacksonville Jaguars. Casey, I know this

382
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:36,280
Speaker 1: is a loaded one. You buying or keeping trying?

383
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:41,000
Speaker 2: There, that's a hard one because ultimately, if you continue

384
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:42,479
Speaker 2: to do the same thing over and over again, it's

385
00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:46,160
Speaker 2: the definition of insanity. And right now we've seen essentially

386
00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:48,360
Speaker 2: the scheme and all of that has stayed the same throughout.

387
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:51,879
Speaker 2: So I'm in a way I'm saying I'm buying it

388
00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:54,000
Speaker 2: because you have to do some things different. But I

389
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,840
Speaker 2: think part of that is you're gonna get some guys back.

390
00:17:56,880 --> 00:18:00,320
Speaker 2: I think we saw Quitty pay practice Kenny Moore. So

391
00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:02,920
Speaker 2: a couple of those additions are going to help in

392
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:05,920
Speaker 2: some of that stability that you've had as far as

393
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:09,800
Speaker 2: injuries go. But it is it is something to really

394
00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:13,000
Speaker 2: look at because you've got to start finding ways to

395
00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:17,560
Speaker 2: limit I mean, it's almost like, not necessarily this is

396
00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:19,920
Speaker 2: the truth, but it seems like there's a career day,

397
00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:23,960
Speaker 2: weekend and week out this year, and it's whether it's

398
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:26,680
Speaker 2: a from a running back or from a quarterback back,

399
00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:29,840
Speaker 2: or season highs by the I mean, you've had a

400
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:32,239
Speaker 2: one hundred yard receiver in every game. So all of

401
00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:35,560
Speaker 2: those things adding together, there has to be changes. And

402
00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:37,760
Speaker 2: it may be one of those things where it's it's

403
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:40,800
Speaker 2: not necessarily a scheme or what the play is, it's

404
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:44,480
Speaker 2: just a mentality change or something. But something does have

405
00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:46,600
Speaker 2: to change a little bit when it comes to that,

406
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:49,879
Speaker 2: because you can't continue to do this week in and

407
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:51,560
Speaker 2: week out and expect one football game well.

408
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:54,359
Speaker 1: Through five games, the Colts ranked twenty fifth and points

409
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:57,280
Speaker 1: allowed after ranking twenty eighth in points allowed in each

410
00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:01,639
Speaker 1: of the previous two seasons. The second and yards allowed

411
00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:05,160
Speaker 1: per game at over four hundred. If the averages hold

412
00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:07,679
Speaker 1: up over the course of this season, fellas the yards

413
00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:10,840
Speaker 1: per game and the passing yards would be the second

414
00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:15,560
Speaker 1: highest in club history. And I loved what Zaire Franklin

415
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:17,640
Speaker 1: had to say yesterday inside the locker room. I don't

416
00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:20,120
Speaker 1: know if you guys caught it, but I'm paraphrasing here

417
00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:23,720
Speaker 1: he was. Basically, he was asked a question and his

418
00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:26,919
Speaker 1: answer was kind of a big picture response. It's like,

419
00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:29,080
Speaker 1: we got to figure out who in the heck we are.

420
00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:32,280
Speaker 1: You know, we have too much talent on this defense

421
00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:35,160
Speaker 1: to be giving up the numbers that I just alluded to.

422
00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:38,400
Speaker 1: Are we gonna be It's time to look at ourselves

423
00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:40,679
Speaker 1: in the mirror, you know. Are we gonna be the

424
00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:44,119
Speaker 1: defense that figures it out starting right now and we

425
00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:46,959
Speaker 1: start putting good performances together. Or are we just going

426
00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:49,760
Speaker 1: to be the defense that everybody loves to play? As

427
00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:51,959
Speaker 1: you said, are we going to be the defense that

428
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:56,760
Speaker 1: allows season highs and career highs? This is a huge,

429
00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:59,840
Speaker 1: I think breaking point for the defense bill to figure

430
00:19:59,880 --> 00:20:02,280
Speaker 1: out out what it's made of internally, and then the

431
00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:05,080
Speaker 1: amount of urgency that I think it needs to start showing.

432
00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:06,840
Speaker 3: Oh, I agree, they definitely have to do that. And

433
00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:09,280
Speaker 3: I don't know if it is a scheme or not.

434
00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:10,760
Speaker 4: I can't. I don't know that.

435
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:12,159
Speaker 3: I'm not going to sit here and say yes, so

436
00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:13,760
Speaker 3: it is a scheme or it's not the scheme. But

437
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:14,920
Speaker 3: what I'm going to say is.

438
00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:16,800
Speaker 4: It depends on execution.

439
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:20,160
Speaker 3: Those guys have to execute better because giving up those

440
00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:25,800
Speaker 3: big plays and missing tackles and missing a lot of mistackles.

441
00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:29,080
Speaker 3: And then for me, right now, in your fifth game

442
00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:31,280
Speaker 3: that you've played, I've seen a lot of point and

443
00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:34,520
Speaker 3: fingers meaning that, oh, miscommunication, you're supposed to be here,

444
00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:37,760
Speaker 3: You're supposed to be there, not pointing, not blaming anyone else,

445
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:39,720
Speaker 3: but just saying, oh, you're supposed to be here, You're

446
00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:41,680
Speaker 3: supposed to be here. That shouldn't be happening in the

447
00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:43,240
Speaker 3: fifth game season, especially.

448
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:45,240
Speaker 1: Especially in year three of the scheme. Yes, yeah, year

449
00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:45,840
Speaker 1: three of the scheme.

450
00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:48,240
Speaker 4: Guys been playing it. So those things have to change.

451
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:51,359
Speaker 3: And it just becomes a point now that those guys

452
00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:53,320
Speaker 3: are looking in the mirror and say, look, we have

453
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:55,840
Speaker 3: to get better. We have to execute. We can't be

454
00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:59,080
Speaker 3: making these mental mistakes out here. And we're a team

455
00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:01,199
Speaker 3: that's supposed to be able to the tackle and have

456
00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:05,200
Speaker 3: good tacklers. We can't be missing tackles in crucial situations.

457
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:09,040
Speaker 3: So to me, I don't think it's a major change

458
00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:09,840
Speaker 3: or anything like that.

459
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:13,000
Speaker 4: So I'm gonna say keep trying. I'm not gonna say buying.

460
00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:15,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, but they do have to play a whole lot

461
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:19,159
Speaker 3: better and they have to stop making the mental mistakes.

462
00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:21,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, the mental mistakes just killed the Colts last week.

463
00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:25,520
Speaker 1: Replays over sixty I think it was fourteen plays over

464
00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:28,720
Speaker 1: ten allowed to the Jacksonville Jaguars in Casey. I think

465
00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:32,000
Speaker 1: that's the probably the most frustrating thing, at least for fans,

466
00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:35,680
Speaker 1: is they see these numbers by the defense in totality,

467
00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:37,919
Speaker 1: and then they look at the offenses that they're playing.

468
00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:41,439
Speaker 1: They're not playing the Chiefs every monk, right, They're not

469
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:44,680
Speaker 1: playing the Chargers with Herbert, you know. They're playing some

470
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:49,919
Speaker 1: young quarterbacks or non established quarterbacks or backup quarterbacks. And

471
00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:52,440
Speaker 1: some of these offenses that come in averaging less than

472
00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:56,359
Speaker 1: twenty points per game, well under that threshold are putting

473
00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:59,119
Speaker 1: up season highs and having career days against the Colts.

474
00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:01,680
Speaker 1: I think that's what has the fans a little bit

475
00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:04,200
Speaker 1: up in arms a little bit. It's like we're doing

476
00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:07,879
Speaker 1: we're giving all of this up to non powerful offenses and.

477
00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:10,159
Speaker 2: To really harp on that, especially last week. We know

478
00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:13,520
Speaker 2: the Jacksonville the offense, they have a handful of weapons

479
00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:16,439
Speaker 2: that can I mean, Brian Thomas is a really good player.

480
00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:19,320
Speaker 2: We've seen Christian Kirk be a good player. Trevor Lawrence

481
00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:22,359
Speaker 2: has been a really good player. But heading into that game,

482
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 2: it hadn't been there. I mean Trevor Lawrence had lost

483
00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:29,919
Speaker 2: his not last nine straight starts. He had looked, you know, ultimately,

484
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:32,760
Speaker 2: almost like a guy that you start questioning, did they

485
00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:34,080
Speaker 2: pay the wrong do they you know?

486
00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:35,840
Speaker 1: Is he the guy they should have paid? Is he

487
00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:37,760
Speaker 1: you know? Well, we do know, and you're right.

488
00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:41,439
Speaker 2: I mean, they hadn't scored twenty points all season. I

489
00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:44,800
Speaker 2: mean they're fielding questions a week before about job security

490
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:47,400
Speaker 2: and all of that. So I understand the frustration completely,

491
00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:49,480
Speaker 2: and that is I mean, I'm glad that Zaire Franklin

492
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:51,440
Speaker 2: was pretty blunt about that in the locker room because

493
00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:54,480
Speaker 2: at the end of the day, like Bill said, it's execution.

494
00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:56,760
Speaker 2: You got to go out and you've got to perform

495
00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:59,080
Speaker 2: like you can blame, you know, a scheme.

496
00:22:59,119 --> 00:22:59,720
Speaker 1: You can blame.

497
00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:02,200
Speaker 2: Mccordeny, but also the guys have to play, and there

498
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:05,760
Speaker 2: were a handful of mistackles on Sunday that all of

499
00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:08,000
Speaker 2: those guys back there, you know, they are all telling

500
00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:11,000
Speaker 2: you that's the problem, like we need to sure up

501
00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:13,040
Speaker 2: what we do. We got to get back to fundamentals.

502
00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:15,479
Speaker 2: And you're right at week five that shouldn't be happening.

503
00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:18,040
Speaker 2: But you know, one good thing about this league is

504
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:19,880
Speaker 2: you got another chance to go out and correct things

505
00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:20,800
Speaker 2: coming up on Sunday.

506
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:24,160
Speaker 1: Looking for more consistency on that defensive side of the ball,

507
00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:26,840
Speaker 1: that is buying or keep trying. Well done with Bill

508
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:30,560
Speaker 1: Brooks and Casey Valley. I'm Matt Taylor. You talk about consistency.

509
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:34,520
Speaker 1: Whatever role he's put in, Tyler Goodson delivers, running the ball,

510
00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:36,919
Speaker 1: catching the ball out of the backfield. Whether he's getting

511
00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:40,000
Speaker 1: thirty snaps or ten snaps, he's ready to go. And

512
00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:42,320
Speaker 1: he's our spotlight player of the week this week. You're

513
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:44,760
Speaker 1: on the Official Colts Podcast. Had a chance to catch

514
00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:47,000
Speaker 1: up with number thirty one a little bit earlier today.

515
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:51,399
Speaker 1: All right, let's enjoy some sunshine right now here in

516
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:54,000
Speaker 1: the Hoosier state the great fall, whether we capitalize on

517
00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:57,080
Speaker 1: that with Tyler Goodson Colts running back with us Tyler

518
00:23:57,119 --> 00:23:59,359
Speaker 1: down in Jacksonville last week, five on the ground for

519
00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:02,160
Speaker 1: twenty six three catches out of the backfield for thirty

520
00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:05,080
Speaker 1: one yards against the Jaguars. I know the outcome is

521
00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:07,400
Speaker 1: not what you wanted, but your performance it's pretty solid.

522
00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:08,280
Speaker 1: Were you pretty happy with it?

523
00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:08,439
Speaker 2: Oh?

524
00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:10,159
Speaker 5: Yes, I was pretty happy with it, especially with the

525
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:12,720
Speaker 5: opportunities I was given. My main thing is just going

526
00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:14,400
Speaker 5: in there and when the ball is in my hands,

527
00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:15,880
Speaker 5: just do everything I can just to make a play

528
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:17,480
Speaker 5: and try to help the team win. And I feel

529
00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:19,560
Speaker 5: like that was a good step for me and going

530
00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:22,440
Speaker 5: on into Jacksonville just making plays and it's definitely gonna

531
00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:24,680
Speaker 5: carry on to it. This weekend allows me to build confidence.

532
00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:26,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, you were splitting the carries and splitting the time

533
00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:29,520
Speaker 1: in the backfield with Trey Sermon. How do you stay

534
00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:33,520
Speaker 1: engaged and stay ready and whenever your number is called,

535
00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:35,600
Speaker 1: you go in there and you make a play. How

536
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:38,480
Speaker 1: difficult is that to do with kind of the start

537
00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:41,200
Speaker 1: stop nature of what your role was last week?

538
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:42,919
Speaker 5: I mean, I don't think it's difficult. If you love

539
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:44,959
Speaker 5: gay me personally have a lot of passion in love

540
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:47,520
Speaker 5: for this game, and I do want to do everything

541
00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:49,199
Speaker 5: I can to put myself in a position to be

542
00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:51,520
Speaker 5: that main guy one day. So for me, it's not

543
00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 5: just about going out there and just just being at

544
00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:57,240
Speaker 5: the game, you know. It's I like watching the game,

545
00:24:57,280 --> 00:24:59,720
Speaker 5: paying attention to the game, learnning from other people, seeing

546
00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:01,720
Speaker 5: how run or how they move with the ball in

547
00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:03,919
Speaker 5: their hands. So it's a lot of factors that go

548
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,359
Speaker 5: into it when it comes to just keeping my focus

549
00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:07,600
Speaker 5: on the game, because I know when I go in

550
00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:09,439
Speaker 5: there and I do have a lot of focus, then

551
00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:10,880
Speaker 5: I'm not gonna be in my a game, and then

552
00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:13,280
Speaker 5: that's gonna cause me to maybe lose my job and

553
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:15,720
Speaker 5: maybe not have a job again, you know, And we

554
00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:17,480
Speaker 5: don't want that happening. So I do everything I can

555
00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:18,480
Speaker 5: just to make sure I'm ready.

556
00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:21,040
Speaker 1: So it's always about the big picture, like you said,

557
00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:23,880
Speaker 1: With that of mind, playing off of that, how much

558
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:26,200
Speaker 1: film do you watch of other running backs and how

559
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:29,120
Speaker 1: often do you add new tricks to your bag?

560
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:31,560
Speaker 5: So I pretty much watch running backs of my style

561
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:36,080
Speaker 5: pretty much, pass catchers complete backs. I watched a lot

562
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:38,880
Speaker 5: of Aaron Jones tape, Alvin Cook when he was doing

563
00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:39,240
Speaker 5: this thing.

564
00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:40,600
Speaker 2: A J.

565
00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:42,720
Speaker 5: Peterson guys back in the day, A lot of a

566
00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:45,960
Speaker 5: lot of guys. So I try to implement keep up

567
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:48,640
Speaker 5: Potters from everybody's watch style and everybody's gay to my game.

568
00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,879
Speaker 5: I mean, everything might not go as playing sure as

569
00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:53,840
Speaker 5: it does in the game, but you know, just being

570
00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:56,120
Speaker 5: able to watch those guys move and how they work

571
00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:58,680
Speaker 5: it helps me because it allows me to be like, Okay,

572
00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:01,080
Speaker 5: I might be doing something wrong on my end or right,

573
00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:02,879
Speaker 5: not doing the right thing on my end, to be

574
00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:05,399
Speaker 5: able to be successful just like them. So that's what

575
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:06,000
Speaker 5: it's all about.

576
00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:08,439
Speaker 1: You're such a great teammate and you're such a great player.

577
00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:11,040
Speaker 1: With that of mind, how do you internalize and deal

578
00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:13,000
Speaker 1: with the fact that you don't want to see Jonathan

579
00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:15,560
Speaker 1: Taylor get banged up. I don't know about his availability

580
00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:18,639
Speaker 1: for this Sunday's game down in Tennessee, but you know

581
00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:22,960
Speaker 1: you're sympathetic for his situation, but also at the same time,

582
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,360
Speaker 1: you know it's more playing time potentially for you. How

583
00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:26,640
Speaker 1: do you deal with that?

584
00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:28,320
Speaker 5: What's this game takes all of us. It's a long season,

585
00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:31,439
Speaker 5: seventeen eighteen games in a season, so it's gonna take

586
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:33,520
Speaker 5: all of us and we all know injuries gonna happen,

587
00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:35,200
Speaker 5: So it's all about just being there for each other

588
00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:38,640
Speaker 5: and just making sure everybody's caught up to the same

589
00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:40,600
Speaker 5: pace in the room because when your time comes, you

590
00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:42,360
Speaker 5: want to take advantage of that so you can stay

591
00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:43,800
Speaker 5: in the building and be able to be around the

592
00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:46,200
Speaker 5: guys that you like being around. So that's what it's

593
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:49,000
Speaker 5: all about. For me, It's not really about just I,

594
00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:51,200
Speaker 5: I ME, me me, because my time is gonna come

595
00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:55,520
Speaker 5: and nobody can stop God's timming. So God willing, hopefully

596
00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:58,640
Speaker 5: my time comes in the future and future, but if

597
00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:01,360
Speaker 5: God wants me to stand in background, played my role,

598
00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:02,040
Speaker 5: and that's what I'm gonna do.

599
00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:04,240
Speaker 1: And that's all about staying ready because you never know

600
00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:06,440
Speaker 1: when that time is gonna come, but you're gonna be ready, Yes, sir,

601
00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:08,400
Speaker 1: that's the mindset, Yes sir, Yes sir. All right. So

602
00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:10,879
Speaker 1: with with you, you can play with any quarterback. You

603
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:13,760
Speaker 1: can play with Anthony Richardson, you can play with Gardner Minshew.

604
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:15,920
Speaker 1: You proved last week. You can play with Joe Flacco.

605
00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:18,240
Speaker 1: What is it about this guy? I mean he comes in,

606
00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:22,640
Speaker 1: I mean he's Joe cool for a reason. He's cool, collected.

607
00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:24,520
Speaker 1: I mean, even as walk is correct, you know what

608
00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:27,600
Speaker 1: I mean? What is it about Joe that keeps everybody stable?

609
00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:28,040
Speaker 5: I don't know.

610
00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:29,200
Speaker 4: I think that's just Joe style.

611
00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:31,600
Speaker 5: Like he just too cool, like every times in the

612
00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:33,800
Speaker 5: gay like like I don't get the Coby pank. He

613
00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:36,120
Speaker 5: just just out there lacks and lax of days, cool,

614
00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:37,679
Speaker 5: like he's been here before, and that just comes with

615
00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:39,840
Speaker 5: just experience in the game and how long he's been

616
00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:42,359
Speaker 5: playing a game. So just being out there with Joe

617
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:45,320
Speaker 5: and just seeing how he operates, definitely, I think it

618
00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:48,879
Speaker 5: definitely helps other teammates to be like, all right, Joe's cool,

619
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:51,439
Speaker 5: so can we all be cool and all play the

620
00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:52,920
Speaker 5: same game we know we've been playing, you know what

621
00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:56,520
Speaker 5: I mean. So, so kudos and Joe. I love playing

622
00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:58,880
Speaker 5: with Joe. It's honor to play with my bad quarterback

623
00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:01,320
Speaker 5: like Joe. So I'm looking forward to the season one.

624
00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:04,119
Speaker 1: Does it matter for you which quarterback it is or

625
00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:06,399
Speaker 1: I guess a better question is how long does it

626
00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:10,200
Speaker 1: take to get adjusted and to accommodate for a different quarterback?

627
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:12,639
Speaker 5: It doesn't really matter to me. I just trust that

628
00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:14,760
Speaker 5: guy's gonna do his job. Everybody has a job, and

629
00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:17,000
Speaker 5: everybody has a role on this team, and we all

630
00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:18,800
Speaker 5: plan to get our job's done so we all can

631
00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:21,240
Speaker 5: be successful. Just it's a team game. Everybody has to

632
00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:23,040
Speaker 5: do their job in order to go in there and

633
00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:25,000
Speaker 5: win games. So it really doesn't matter to me. I

634
00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:26,840
Speaker 5: really don't have a purpose on which quarterbacks in the game.

635
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:28,520
Speaker 5: I just know they all can get the job done,

636
00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:30,520
Speaker 5: whether that's Anthony coming in there throwing the ball, throwing

637
00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:32,480
Speaker 5: the defense with his legs, or Joe coming in there

638
00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:35,520
Speaker 5: and just being Joe being cool, dicing the baller out,

639
00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:36,879
Speaker 5: or what their SAMs in there, because he can go

640
00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:38,200
Speaker 5: in there and dis up it too and roll with

641
00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:40,760
Speaker 5: his legs too. So it doesn't matter for me. I

642
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:43,120
Speaker 5: have full trusting confidence in those guys.

643
00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:45,800
Speaker 1: All right. So Tennessee coming up on Sunday, So their

644
00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:48,320
Speaker 1: defense is legit. I'm sure you've seen them on film.

645
00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:51,840
Speaker 1: They're number one in total defense, number one against the past,

646
00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:53,160
Speaker 1: really good on third down.

647
00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:55,960
Speaker 5: What kind of challenge is this on Sunday. It's definitely

648
00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:57,120
Speaker 5: gonna be a good challenge. But at the end the

649
00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:59,560
Speaker 5: day's football, they still gotta come. We're gonna go over

650
00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:02,880
Speaker 5: there and they gotta play football. I mean, it's a

651
00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:04,560
Speaker 5: it's a new weekend each and every weekend. You're not

652
00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:06,320
Speaker 5: gonna always be the same every week, you know. I mean,

653
00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:07,880
Speaker 5: so at the end of the day, you're gonna have

654
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:10,680
Speaker 5: to show us what that number one defense is or

655
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:13,360
Speaker 5: whether what category are you in. It doesn't matter when

656
00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:16,080
Speaker 5: them when the clock, When the clock ticks and it's

657
00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:18,480
Speaker 5: time for kickoff, it's time to see what's gonna happen al.

658
00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:20,360
Speaker 1: Right behind the curtain a little bit, right when when

659
00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:22,400
Speaker 1: there's no coaches in the locker room and it's just

660
00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:25,280

00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:31,960
Speaker 1: three in the division and just the sense of urgency

664
00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:33,240
Speaker 1: that is needed going into this game.

665
00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:35,560

00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:49,440
Speaker 5: just just make plays because that's what this game comes

671
00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:51,400
Speaker 5: down to. All these games come down to close games,

672
00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:53,240
Speaker 5: and they're just gonna come down to who's gonna make

673
00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:55,080
Speaker 5: the big time plays and the big time moments. And

674
00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:56,400
Speaker 5: we know we got the guys in the locker room

675
00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:57,880
Speaker 5: to do that. So talk to some on the locker

676
00:29:57,960 --> 00:29:59,440
Speaker 5: room and just keep doing what we're doing. We just

677
00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:01,400
Speaker 5: gotta be able to hone in and make the plays

678
00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:02,480
Speaker 5: that we know we're capable of making.

679
00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:04,360
Speaker 1: All right, before I let you go, can we hop

680
00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:06,160
Speaker 1: in the time machine real quick? Do it? Can we

681
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:09,160
Speaker 1: go back to high school for you in Georgia North

682
00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:10,320
Speaker 1: Guadett High School?

683
00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:10,520
Speaker 5: Sir?

684
00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:13,640
Speaker 1: Right, correct me if I'm wrong. Teammates, your teammates with

685
00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:16,400
Speaker 1: Josh Downs in high school, if you guys won a

686
00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:20,400
Speaker 1: state championship in twenty eighteen, I mean, you have two

687
00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:23,920
Speaker 1: NFL players on the same high school team. Now you're

688
00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:26,120
Speaker 1: both in the NFL together. I mean, did you guys

689
00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:28,080
Speaker 1: win every game like one hundred to nothing or what?

690
00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:31,600
Speaker 5: I wish it was that way, but most games, most

691
00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:33,280
Speaker 5: games was pretty close. There was a lot of talent

692
00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:36,360
Speaker 5: out there and other good teams out there. But I'll say,

693
00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:39,080
Speaker 5: just playing with Josh in high school, see him grow

694
00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:41,720
Speaker 5: up in being making it to the league, and now

695
00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:43,680
Speaker 5: it's playing on the same team is just a real moment.

696
00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:45,480
Speaker 5: And I remember, like I'll never forget, like the first

697
00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:49,040
Speaker 5: time I got in huddle with him on here against

698
00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:51,080
Speaker 5: Houston when they came here, and I'm like, bro, like

699
00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:53,920
Speaker 5: we're really in the same huddle together again. Bro, it's amazing,

700
00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:55,720
Speaker 5: Like we're going right back to school. He was like,

701
00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:57,160
Speaker 5: he was like, yeah, let's go get a Super Bowl.

702
00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:58,400
Speaker 1: Were you guys pretty tight in high school?

703
00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:01,200
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, most definitely his families and my my family.

704
00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:03,239
Speaker 5: His family is very close. Him and my brother very

705
00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:05,760
Speaker 5: close as well. So we've always was around each others,

706
00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:08,080
Speaker 5: growing up each other, training with each other, everywhere with

707
00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:09,240
Speaker 5: each other. So that's that's my job.

00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:11,000
Speaker 1: Did you get I mean, give give us some dirt

709

Speaker 1: as we close it back out with Bill and Casey.

729
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:10,840
Speaker 1: I'm Matt Taylor, and I love that Tyler Goodson Josh

730
00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:13,600
Speaker 1: Downs were high school teammates. He said that the games

731
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:15,520
Speaker 1: were closer. I said, did you win every game? Like

732
00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:20,760
Speaker 1: by one hundred? I mean, who's the quarterback? What's that guy?

733
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:21,400
Speaker 5: Guy?

734
00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:25,440
Speaker 2: You're good I always thought about that with with Juju

735
00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:28,120
Speaker 2: Brns who played locally here and then Michael Toutsy who's

736
00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:30,280
Speaker 2: been with the team. Like I was like, man, nobody

737
00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:32,040
Speaker 2: was able to gain a yard on those two guys

738
00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:35,160
Speaker 2: play passing the ball, You're not And that's the same

739
00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:36,880
Speaker 2: I would feel with downs and goods and like, yeah,

740
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:39,400
Speaker 2: can you imagine opposing defense is good luck you.

741
00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:41,800
Speaker 1: Have figured that reverse start that way and then handed

742
00:32:41,840 --> 00:32:44,360
Speaker 1: off that guy always go up and down the field

743
00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:46,560
Speaker 1: without being those two guys on the field.

744
00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:47,680
Speaker 4: My goodness.

745
00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:50,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, So look, good little tidbit there. Tyler Goodson man

746
00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:53,280
Speaker 1: really really good guy, great interview, So I really appreciate

747
00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:55,640
Speaker 1: his time. All right, it's time to tighten up. Let's

748
00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:58,600
Speaker 1: talk about the Titans here to close out here, uh, Tennessee.

749
00:32:58,600 --> 00:33:00,800
Speaker 1: As I said, they come in one and three, but

750
00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:03,600
Speaker 1: they can be dangerous. They've got a second year quarterback,

751
00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:06,000
Speaker 1: just like the Colts. Their version of their up and

752
00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:08,160
Speaker 1: comer is Will Levis, who they drafted in the second

753
00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:12,280
Speaker 1: round in twenty twenty three, and just like Anthony Richardson,

754
00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:15,320
Speaker 1: if he's healthy enough to play on Sunday, he's going to.

755
00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:18,520
Speaker 1: According to their head coach Brian Callahan, he's banged up

756
00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:21,280
Speaker 1: with a shoulder, but he leads the NFL and with

757
00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:25,200
Speaker 1: turnovers with nine, still completing right around sixty eight sixty

758
00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:27,680
Speaker 1: nine percent of his passes on the season. Got a

759
00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:30,160
Speaker 1: bevy of playmakers to throw the football to. That've got

760
00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:33,080
Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins, who had a big game last year against

761
00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:35,640
Speaker 1: the Colts for a buck forty in that first meeting.

762
00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:38,880
Speaker 1: Calvin Ridley is on their team, coming over from the Jaguars.

763
00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:41,680
Speaker 1: Tyler Boyd is now on their roster. He comes over

764
00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:44,760
Speaker 1: in free agency from the Bengals, but nobody on their team.

765
00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:47,440
Speaker 1: Bill has more than one hundred and fifty receiving yards

766
00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:50,360
Speaker 1: and more than one touchdown on the season. So what's

767
00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:53,600
Speaker 1: going on with the Titans passing game? And again, can

768
00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:56,360
Speaker 1: this finally be the week where the Colts keep a

769
00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:59,680
Speaker 1: pedestrian offense just right there, just kind of in the

770
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:02,280
Speaker 1: in the middle where they don't give up a big game.

771
00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:02,600
Speaker 4: You hope.

772
00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:05,360
Speaker 3: So I think what's going on with their office mainly

773
00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:06,440
Speaker 3: is that you just mentioned it.

774
00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:07,080
Speaker 4: The turnovers.

775
00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:09,680
Speaker 3: You turn the ball over, just don't have opportunities to

776
00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:12,279
Speaker 3: sustain drives and have more opportunities to get the ball

777
00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:14,520
Speaker 3: to the guys. And I know they've talked about that

778
00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:17,200
Speaker 3: they want to get the ball more to Calvin Ridley.

779
00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:18,719
Speaker 3: They haven't got the ball to him as much as

780
00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:21,680
Speaker 3: they want. They know he's a big play guy. Yeah,

781
00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:23,680
Speaker 3: so he's a big play guy. So they're trying to

782
00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:26,959
Speaker 3: get the ball to him. Now just because they haven't

783
00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:28,719
Speaker 3: got to him in the past, if they haven't been

784
00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:32,000
Speaker 3: able to get the ball to these receivers, their receivers

785
00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:35,240
Speaker 3: are very good, very good receivers. You know, you've got Hopkins,

786
00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:37,680
Speaker 3: he's done it for years. So yeah, you know that,

787
00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:40,560
Speaker 3: so you got what he's doing. So I'm a big

788
00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:44,680
Speaker 3: fan of Boyd of going out there, coming with Calahan

789
00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:45,759
Speaker 3: over from Cincinnati.

790
00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:46,080
Speaker 1: Guy.

791
00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:48,040
Speaker 4: Yep, So I'm a big I'm a big fan of here.

792
00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:49,919
Speaker 3: So they have the weapons. It's not that they don't

793
00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:52,120
Speaker 3: have weapons. And they have two backs. No, no, it's

794
00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:55,360
Speaker 3: not Derrick Henry of old. But now they got pollered

795
00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:56,359
Speaker 3: and spears back there.

796
00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:58,520
Speaker 1: So and they catch the ball too, catch the.

797
00:34:58,520 --> 00:34:59,920
Speaker 4: Ball very well out of the backfield.

798
00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:02,320
Speaker 3: Then you know, I look at this offense being so

799
00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:05,160
Speaker 3: much to what Cincinnati was when they had Joe Mixon

800
00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:07,239
Speaker 3: back digging the ball out out of the backfield and

801
00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:09,400
Speaker 3: throwing the ball to him a little bit and running

802
00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:09,680
Speaker 3: the ball.

803
00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:11,799
Speaker 4: So they have the weapons, it's just.

804
00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:15,759
Speaker 3: A matter of them being more consistent, keeping the ball themselves,

805
00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:18,120
Speaker 3: and of course not turning the ball over like we

806
00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:20,120
Speaker 3: always talk about. You know, if you turn the ball over,

807
00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:22,480
Speaker 3: more likely it's going to be very difficult to win games.

808
00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:24,759
Speaker 4: And when they turn the ball over like that, it

809
00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:25,080
Speaker 4: makes a.

810
00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:28,560
Speaker 1: Different two picks sixes, right, that makes matters worse. Yes,

811
00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:31,200
Speaker 1: all right, case, let's talk about the deceptive defense for

812
00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:34,319
Speaker 1: the Tennessee Titans. Through four games, they're giving up two

813
00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:37,200
Speaker 1: forty three a game. By the way, that's number one

814
00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:39,799
Speaker 1: in the NFL. Right now, the naysayers are going to say, well,

815
00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:42,400
Speaker 1: you haven't played anybody, because you played the Bears in

816
00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:45,040
Speaker 1: the first game of the season, Kayleb Williams was making

817
00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:49,600
Speaker 1: his first start ever. They played the Packers without excuse me,

818
00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:54,680
Speaker 1: they played yeah, the Packers without Jordan Love. They played

819
00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:57,080
Speaker 1: the Jets without Aaron Rodgers with a forty year old

820
00:35:57,120 --> 00:36:00,640
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers. My mind can only handle so much. Aaron

821
00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:03,399
Speaker 1: Rodgers does not play for the Packers anymore, Matt all right.

822
00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:06,359
Speaker 1: And then they played the Miami Dolphins without Tua yep,

823
00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:09,759
Speaker 1: So is this legiti or not? How much validity do

824
00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:12,480
Speaker 1: you have to the overall numbers. Plus, they're really good

825
00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:14,880
Speaker 1: at holding teams down in the passing game as well,

826
00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:16,120
Speaker 1: they're number one in that category.

827
00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:18,040
Speaker 2: Two, I think it's twofold because I think you do

828
00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:20,640
Speaker 2: have to look at it as who they were playing against,

829
00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:26,279
Speaker 2: but they have really good playmakers on every level of

830
00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:28,520
Speaker 2: the defense. I mean it starts up front with guys

831
00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:31,600
Speaker 2: like Jeffrey Simmons. Harold Landry might be one of the

832
00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:34,400
Speaker 2: most underrated pass rushers in all of football. He is

833
00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:39,759
Speaker 2: a really, really good player. And then I mean Lugerious

834
00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:43,560
Speaker 2: Snead has been about as shut down of a corner

835
00:36:43,600 --> 00:36:45,799
Speaker 2: as you were gonna find in the NFL this year,

836
00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:49,400
Speaker 2: and I mean he has been as advertised. He was,

837
00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:52,640
Speaker 2: you know, one of the high prize free agents, if

838
00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:55,720
Speaker 2: you will, in the secondary during free agency. The Chiefs

839
00:36:55,719 --> 00:36:58,360
Speaker 2: couldn't keep him financially, so you know, when he was

840
00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:00,839
Speaker 2: able to join the Titans, that one caught my eye

841
00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:02,279
Speaker 2: because I was like, man, you got to see him

842
00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:04,359
Speaker 2: twice a year, and he's lived up to the bill.

843
00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:06,960
Speaker 2: It's one of those things where, like I said, it's

844
00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:09,200
Speaker 2: it's twofold. You look at who they've played, but they

845
00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:12,359
Speaker 2: do have a lot of really, really good playmakers. And

846
00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:15,680
Speaker 2: I mean Kenneth Murray coming over at linebacker from the Chargers,

847
00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:16,840
Speaker 2: he was a really good player.

848
00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:19,799
Speaker 1: They've got some runing Goodie arden Key.

849
00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:22,600
Speaker 2: I mean It's one of those things where every player

850
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:25,040
Speaker 2: you may not be a household name, but you look

851
00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:26,080
Speaker 2: at you Oh I remember him.

852
00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:26,600
Speaker 1: I know that.

853
00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:31,920
Speaker 2: Yes, I mean it really it's a very.

854
00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:32,480
Speaker 1: It's pretty good.

855
00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:34,920
Speaker 2: I mean Jamal Adams is he's an older player, hasn't

856
00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:37,239
Speaker 2: played much, but I mean he's a backup safety on

857
00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:37,680
Speaker 2: their team.

858
00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:39,440
Speaker 4: This is Jamal. I mean, he was the.

859
00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:41,279
Speaker 2: Guy that through the first six years of his career,

860
00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:43,040
Speaker 2: everybody's looking at it. He could be the greatest safety

861
00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:45,200
Speaker 2: to ever play the game. So, I mean, they have

862
00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:49,600
Speaker 2: a really really talented group and it I don't know

863
00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:52,880
Speaker 2: necessarily if I think they're a number one unit, but

864
00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:56,920
Speaker 2: they're definitely a very top team for sures.

865
00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:58,759
Speaker 3: All unit tess ollienton and they're got you know, they're

866
00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:00,560
Speaker 3: going to show up each and every and that's what

867
00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:02,880
Speaker 3: they're gonna probably hang the hat on going forward because

868
00:38:03,239 --> 00:38:05,640
Speaker 3: knowing what the offense can do or not do, they're

869
00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:08,279
Speaker 3: not sure about that, but they're they're going to be

870
00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:11,120
Speaker 3: very confident what the defense can do weekend and week out.

871
00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:13,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, to close out. Don't scoff at this,

872
00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:17,680
Speaker 1: because anytime the Colts and Titans get together, regardless of

873
00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:20,440
Speaker 1: how much roster turnover there has been and there's been

874
00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:22,879
Speaker 1: a lot with Tennessee from twenty three to twenty four,

875
00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:26,080
Speaker 1: and especially when you look at the line, the betting line,

876
00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:28,200
Speaker 1: I think is depending on what you look at it,

877
00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:30,080
Speaker 1: maybe you know a point or two in favor of

878
00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:33,399
Speaker 1: Tennessee going into this game. And you have to talk

879
00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:35,719
Speaker 1: about those things when you talk about close games. The

880
00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:38,759
Speaker 1: Colts have played five games they have all been one

881
00:38:38,760 --> 00:38:42,360
Speaker 1: score games, and so when you factor that in special

882
00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:45,040
Speaker 1: teams is huge, and when you talk about Tennessee, they've

883
00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:47,120
Speaker 1: got two of the best specialists in the game, punter

884
00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:51,000
Speaker 1: Ryan Stonehouse and kicker Nick Folk. Stonehouse is back. He

885
00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:54,239
Speaker 1: had that gruesome injury. Remember last year, was that the

886
00:38:54,360 --> 00:38:57,000
Speaker 1: Tony Brown brow Yeah, I mean yeah, it's just I mean,

887
00:38:57,400 --> 00:39:00,719
Speaker 1: I think he tore his ibcl ACL, broke his leg

888
00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:02,799
Speaker 1: and broke his leg all at once. I mean, just

889
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:07,120
Speaker 1: the most terrifying, nasty injuries you've ever seen on a

890
00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:09,600
Speaker 1: football field. But he is back and he's picking up

891
00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:11,279
Speaker 1: right where he left off. I mean, he's one of

892
00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:13,640
Speaker 1: the best in the NFL, looking to become the first

893
00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:16,640
Speaker 1: player since the merger to lead the league in gross

894
00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:20,520
Speaker 1: punting average for three consecutive seasons, and then Nick Folk

895
00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:26,600
Speaker 1: is older than dirt in the NFL for like two decades. Still, no,

896
00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:29,200
Speaker 1: I mean, this is not a shot total, so it's

897
00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:32,960
Speaker 1: typicitely kept. I mean, he's made ninety six percent of

898
00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:35,560
Speaker 1: his field goals. It's the start of last year. He's

899
00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:38,840
Speaker 1: made forty eight of his last fifty kicks. Hasn't missed

900
00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:43,040
Speaker 1: since Week twelve of excuse me, week ten of last year.

901
00:39:43,480 --> 00:39:46,560
Speaker 1: So the Colts have two great specialists in Rigo Sanchez

902
00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:49,960
Speaker 1: and Matt Gay. Obviously the Titans do as well. Special

903
00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:51,920
Speaker 1: teams is gonna play a big factor and who wins

904
00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:52,759
Speaker 1: this football.

905
00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:54,319
Speaker 3: He's gonna play a big factor, you know. And they're

906
00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:56,319
Speaker 3: they're punting as far as the Titans go. They're in

907
00:39:56,320 --> 00:39:59,359
Speaker 3: the top ten and net and gross punting as far

908
00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:00,960
Speaker 3: as the National Football League this year.

909
00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:03,440
Speaker 4: So give them credit. You know, they do a good

910
00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:05,200
Speaker 4: job out there, and they're.

911
00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:07,000
Speaker 3: Going to use punting for a weapon for them if

912
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:09,040
Speaker 3: they can pin the Coats back, yeah, and make the

913
00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:11,000
Speaker 3: Coats try to go the long haul as far as

914
00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:14,240
Speaker 3: scoring points. And they have a good defense in regards

915
00:40:14,239 --> 00:40:17,120
Speaker 3: to stopping people on third down and also stopping people

916
00:40:17,160 --> 00:40:19,279
Speaker 3: in the red zone. They're pretty good at both of those.

917
00:40:19,320 --> 00:40:21,880
Speaker 3: So the defense plays well in those two areas.

918
00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:22,960
Speaker 4: And if they.

919
00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:24,680
Speaker 3: Coats have to go a long way, that's what they

920
00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:27,160
Speaker 3: want them to do, so give them credits. So special

921
00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:30,239
Speaker 3: Team's gonna play a big part because field position, I

922
00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:32,080
Speaker 3: think is going to play a big part in this game.

923
00:40:32,280 --> 00:40:34,880
Speaker 3: Who wins the field position battle and who can have

924
00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:38,040
Speaker 3: an easier time of moving the ball down field and scoring.

925
00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:40,319
Speaker 1: Something and both punters can put it exactly where they want.

926
00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:43,680
Speaker 1: Rego leads the NFL and punts Landard inside the twenty

927
00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:44,120
Speaker 1: yard lander.

928
00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:46,560
Speaker 2: Yeah. The one thing I will say about Stonehouse though

929
00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:49,880
Speaker 2: that this is favoring the Colts, is he has had

930
00:40:49,920 --> 00:40:52,879
Speaker 2: problems with touchbacks. He's got the big legs, so there's

931
00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:55,640
Speaker 2: sometimes that, you know, he so hopefully that you know,

932
00:40:55,920 --> 00:40:58,080
Speaker 2: you talk about pitting them deep and all of that.

933
00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:00,399
Speaker 2: That is the one area when you look at all

934
00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:02,520
Speaker 2: of the positives that he and Nick Folk do, the

935
00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:05,200
Speaker 2: one thing that would kind of be the one, you know,

936
00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:08,120
Speaker 2: negative is the touchback. So you're hoping that those kind

937
00:41:08,120 --> 00:41:09,680
Speaker 2: of flare up on Sunday if you're a Colts fan.

938
