00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,040
Speaker 1: ones throughout the course of the next hour or so.

47
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,120
Speaker 1: But let's start with the Colts victory in the very

48
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:43,800
Speaker 1: first regular season game played in Berlin. They beat the

49
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:47,799
Speaker 1: Falcons thirty one twenty five in overtime in Week ten

50
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 1: in front of an enthusiastic and racous German crowd of

51
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:55,800
Speaker 1: seventy five thousand strong. The highlights of the game include

52
00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:59,400
Speaker 1: the Colts dominating time of possession and yardage, but not

53
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:02,640
Speaker 1: being able to the finish off drives consistently. Throughout the

54
00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:05,400
Speaker 1: course of the day. The Colts had plenty of drives

55
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 1: that reached Falcons territory, but turnovers on downs, fumbles, and

56
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:12,919
Speaker 1: missfield goals kept the Colts point total down for most

57
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:15,520
Speaker 1: of the game. In the second half, the Colts relied

58
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:19,080
Speaker 1: on Jonathan Taylor on the ground, and he delivered boy.

59
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:22,360
Speaker 1: He rushed for an astonishing two hundred and forty four

60
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 1: yards on thirty two carries, three rushing touchdowns, the second

61
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:30,840
Speaker 1: of which broke Hall of Famer Edgrin James Franchise record

62
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 1: for career rushing touchdowns, and the third of which won

63
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,920
Speaker 1: the game for the Colts in overtime. So let's take

64
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:41,320
Speaker 1: a look at Taylor's accomplishments one by one here in order.

65
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:45,400
Speaker 1: He posted a career high and a franchise record two

66
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 1: hundred and eighty six scrimmage yards, as he also added

67
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 1: forty two yards receiving. His two hundred and forty four

68
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:54,880
Speaker 1: rushing yards are the second most he's had in a

69
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 1: game and the second most in Colts history. On top

70
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:02,120
Speaker 1: of setting the Colts career rushing touchdown mark, he also

71
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 1: now has seventeen scrimmage touchdowns this season, the most through

72
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:11,120
Speaker 1: ten games by any NFL player since Todd Gurley in

73
00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 1: twenty eighteen. He now has the most two hundred yard

74
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:18,279
Speaker 1: rushing games in Colt's history with three, and with the

75
00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:22,120
Speaker 1: Monster Game on Sunday, he's now over one thousand rushing

76
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:25,599
Speaker 1: yards already on the season. He's accomplished that for the

77
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:29,159
Speaker 1: fourth time in his career, and Taylor's three touchdowns in

78
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:33,039
Speaker 1: Germany marked his fifth game this season with at least

79
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:37,599
Speaker 1: three scrimmage touchdowns. He becomes the fourth player in NFL

80
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:40,880
Speaker 1: history with at least three touchdowns in five games in

81
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:45,640
Speaker 1: a single season, joining Pro Football Hall of famers Ladanian, Tomlinson,

82
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 1: Marshall Falk and Chuck Foreman. There's plenty more, but you

83
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:54,520
Speaker 1: get the idea, right, I mean, Jonathan Taylor's really stinking good. Elsewhere.

84
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,320
Speaker 1: Tyler Warren had a huge impact on the game as well.

85
00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:00,680
Speaker 1: He hauled in eight catches for ninety nine yards, both

86
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:03,360
Speaker 1: career highs, and he had more than just a few

87
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 1: clutch catches in the fourth quarter, in and overtime. He

88
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:09,599
Speaker 1: was instrumental in the Colts win. The Colts defense also

89
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:13,280
Speaker 1: created a strip sack fumble recovery on the first Atlanta

90
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:16,400
Speaker 1: drive of the game, and for the day, the Colts

91
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,719
Speaker 1: held Michael Pennix Junior to a season low forty two

92
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:22,600
Speaker 1: percent in the passing game, and the Falcons were zero

93
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 1: for eight on third down. So now the Colts head

94
00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,480
Speaker 1: into their bye week with an NFL best eight and

95
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,160
Speaker 1: two record, a two and a half game lead over

96
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:34,360
Speaker 1: the five and four Jacksonville Jaguars in the AFC South,

97
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 1: and the eight wins for the Colts this year already

98
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:41,560
Speaker 1: matches their win total from all of last season. So

99
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:44,479
Speaker 1: seven games to go. But now the Colts get some

100
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,760
Speaker 1: rest before they start the home stretch. All right, let's

101
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:50,279
Speaker 1: get into the meat of our show now, Joining me

102
00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,760
Speaker 1: now in studio, as he always does on Monday nights. Here,

103
00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:57,400
Speaker 1: he settled in. He's in the booth. Head coach Shane Steichen,

104
00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:00,800
Speaker 1: the head coach of the Indianapolis Colts with us, Coach,

105
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:04,680
Speaker 1: what a win. What is your level of pride in

106
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 1: this group after finding a way to win in overtime

107
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:10,599
Speaker 1: in Berlin after trailing late in the fourth quarter.

108
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:12,000
Speaker 3: I mean our team has been great.

109
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 5: I mean the grittiness and the toughness they played with

110
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:17,080
Speaker 5: to find a way there in overtime. It was a

111
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:20,200
Speaker 5: back and forth game. I think Atlanta's a good football team.

112
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 5: They did some good things on offense and defense.

113
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:24,200
Speaker 3: But our guys just kept.

114
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 5: Fighting and swinging and obviously when we had our opportunity

115
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:28,719
Speaker 5: in overtime to get it done, we got it done.

116
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,000
Speaker 5: Zaire came out big with the TfL and then the

117
00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:33,840
Speaker 5: sack on third down to get us the ball back,

118
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:37,280
Speaker 5: and then you know, Daniel hitting Tyler Warren on the

119
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:39,280
Speaker 5: you know, the sale route there was huge to get

120
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 5: us into range, and then JT finishing off with the

121
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 5: O line finishing the way we did. Just a tremendous

122
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:47,920
Speaker 5: win by our football team, and obviously, like you said,

123
00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:49,119
Speaker 5: the atmosphere there was great.

124
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:51,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, no doubt about that. We're going to talk about

125
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 1: that more in detail coming up. But as it relates

126
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,599
Speaker 1: to the game, you said, the Falcons, especially on defense,

127
00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 1: they battled their tails off, but you were still able

128
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 1: to score thirty one points on him. But it certainly

129
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 1: didn't come easy. Seven times you reached at least their

130
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:08,039
Speaker 1: thirty five yard line, four times you reached the red zone.

131
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:10,400
Speaker 1: But you know, things just kept popping up, a miss

132
00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:14,200
Speaker 1: field goal, to turnovers on downs, a loss fumble. How

133
00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 1: tough was it to score and finish some of those

134
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,240
Speaker 1: drives against that really good Falcons defense.

135
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 3: Yeah? No, Like I said, I think credit to them,

136
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:21,080
Speaker 3: they did a really good job.

137
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,440
Speaker 5: And I think, you know, those are the you know,

138
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:25,440
Speaker 5: we're gonna have games like that sometimes where you got

139
00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:27,560
Speaker 5: to overcome the adversity. And I thought our guys didn't

140
00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 5: blink the whole game and bounce back and found away

141
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:32,320
Speaker 5: there at the end. In all three phases, I thought

142
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,760
Speaker 5: our kicking game was great, The special teams were awesome

143
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:37,480
Speaker 5: getting the returns that we did, the defense, you know,

144
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:39,600
Speaker 5: holding them to they didn't convert a third down. They

145
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:42,040
Speaker 5: were zero for eight on third down, So it all

146
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 5: played in and everyone did their part to find a

147
00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:44,960
Speaker 5: way to win.

148
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,360
Speaker 1: You know, I thought Daniel Jones played pretty well. I mean,

149
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:50,480
Speaker 1: I know the Falcons were making a concerted effort to

150
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 1: come after him and put pressure on him. He was

151
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:56,320
Speaker 1: sacked seven times, but you know, within that he wisely

152
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,240
Speaker 1: used his feet more than just a couple of times.

153
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,960
Speaker 1: Seven carries for fifty three yards. How did you see

154
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:05,960
Speaker 1: him handle the pressure yesterday from Atlanta? And how important

155
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:09,679
Speaker 1: is his mobility for the success of this offense based

156
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 1: on how most defenses want to play you.

157
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:12,440
Speaker 3: Now, Yeah, no, it's big.

158
00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:15,360
Speaker 5: Anytime you know you can create the scrambl plays like

159
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:18,680
Speaker 5: that when the pocket does get muddy is huge. I

160
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:20,800
Speaker 5: mean the third and twenty one there at the end

161
00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:23,200
Speaker 5: of the game, to scramble and get nineteen yards and

162
00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:25,400
Speaker 5: get it to the fourth and two was one of

163
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:27,720
Speaker 5: the biggest plays in the game. And I thought he

164
00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:29,520
Speaker 5: did a heck of a job of seeing the void

165
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:31,840
Speaker 5: there when he stepped up in the pocket to go

166
00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:34,520
Speaker 5: get that done. So yeah, I thought he did some

167
00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:36,480
Speaker 5: really good things in that game. And obviously the game,

168
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 5: you know, the winning drive there in overtime, yeah, was huge.

169
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:40,520
Speaker 3: I mean, just stay in the.

170
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:42,640
Speaker 5: Pocket and delivered that ball in just a phenomenal catch

171
00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:45,080
Speaker 5: by Tyler and then, like I said, you know, finishing

172
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:46,839
Speaker 5: off the right way running it to score.

173
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:47,120
Speaker 4: Yeah.

174
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,319
Speaker 1: I mean you talked about it after the game as well.

175
00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:51,440
Speaker 1: I mean, you turn that offense over to the running

176
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:54,640
Speaker 1: game in the second half, running to finish off the game.

177
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:57,840
Speaker 1: Taylor rushes for over one hundred and seventy yards in

178
00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:00,800
Speaker 1: the second half. Why did you make it a point

179
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:03,360
Speaker 1: there to feature the running game pass halftime a little

180
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 1: bit more? I mean, what was it about the Falcons

181
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:08,320
Speaker 1: and the way they were playing you where you said,

182
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:10,520
Speaker 1: all right, we're just gonna negate some of that pressure

183
00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 1: and run the ball at him and see if it works.

184
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:13,040
Speaker 1: And it certainly did.

185
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 4: Yeah.

186
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 5: I think you know, you kind of feel the game

187
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:19,080
Speaker 5: as a play caller there. And I thought JT was

188
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 5: running hard. I thought our guys were blocking hard, and

189
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,720
Speaker 5: we were getting the six seven yard runs and then

190
00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:26,959
Speaker 5: obviously we popped the big eighty three hard run there. Yeah,

191
00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:30,000
Speaker 5: and the fourth quarter was huge, and we just kept

192
00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 5: chipping away at it and our guys up front were

193
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:34,840
Speaker 5: blocking and JT was running his tail off and it

194
00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:36,160
Speaker 5: was it was fun to watch.

195
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:40,480
Speaker 1: All right, obligatory. Jonathan Taylor questions here yesterday sets the

196
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:43,800
Speaker 1: Colts record for career rushing touchdowns. He's got sixty six

197
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:47,640
Speaker 1: in just six years. He went over seven thousand career

198
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 1: rushing yards. I mean, those numbers are just staggering. Leads

199
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:55,000
Speaker 1: the NFL, and rushing touchdowns leads the NFL and scrimmage touchdowns.

200
00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:58,840
Speaker 1: What was going through your mind when he's ripping off

201
00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:01,839
Speaker 1: that eighty three yard run? An epic score, but it's

202
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:05,360
Speaker 1: also an epic record on his way to the end zone.

203
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:08,160
Speaker 1: Were you able to put all those things into perspective

204
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:10,440
Speaker 1: as he's doing it, watching it there in Berlin.

205
00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:12,200
Speaker 3: Not not not not what it was happening.

206
00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 5: I mean, when you're on the sidelines and you see

207
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:16,200
Speaker 5: him pop down the sidelines, I'm just running down the

208
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:17,480
Speaker 5: sidelines with them saying.

209
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:19,719
Speaker 1: Score, go score, go score, go go go.

210
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,800
Speaker 3: That's what I'm saying there. And then obviously that's.

211
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:24,920
Speaker 1: Why you're so famous on NFL films.

212
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:27,560
Speaker 5: And then and then but after the game, when you

213
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:29,800
Speaker 5: look back at it and the numbers that he put up,

214
00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 5: it's just been it's been so fun to be a

215
00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:34,960
Speaker 5: part of. To watch what he's doing right now, yeah,

216
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:38,440
Speaker 5: and the Colts organization and our football team. The way

217
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:40,880
Speaker 5: he's playing. I mean, it's it's really special.

218
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:44,800
Speaker 1: Do you think people understand as it relates to Jonathan Taylor?

219
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 1: Do you think they're on they understand what they're watching?

220
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:49,160
Speaker 6: You know.

221
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:50,800
Speaker 1: The reason why I asked that is because you know,

222
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:53,079
Speaker 1: you're around him every day. Yeah, you know, I'm in

223
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,840
Speaker 1: the minutia. I'm covering it every day and I'm comparing

224
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:58,079
Speaker 1: him to all time greats and he's breaking all these

225
00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:01,480
Speaker 1: records and reaching these milestones. But do you think people

226
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:04,680
Speaker 1: really understand just the greatness that we're seeing in the

227
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:05,560
Speaker 1: present moment here.

228
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:08,240
Speaker 5: If they don't understand, I think they need to start

229
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:12,000
Speaker 5: to understanding. I mean, what he's doing right now is spectacular.

230
00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:15,240
Speaker 5: I mean he's creating history right now, which is awesome.

231
00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:17,600
Speaker 5: And when you're a part of it, you're in the moment,

232
00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:18,959
Speaker 5: you know what I mean, You're in the moment, you're

233
00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:21,079
Speaker 5: watching it and it is special and you got to

234
00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 5: embrace that.

235
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:22,080
Speaker 4: You know.

236
00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 5: Sometimes you look back and as you go through your

237
00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:27,680
Speaker 5: you know the history of NFL, and you see some

238
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:30,160
Speaker 5: of these great runners that do what they do and

239
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:32,840
Speaker 5: to be witness in it firsthand, and being a part

240
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:33,760
Speaker 5: of it.

241
00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:35,120
Speaker 3: It's phenomenal, you know.

242
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:38,800
Speaker 1: With his long runs, he's got this willingness. I don't

243
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 1: know if that's the right word, but he's got this

244
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:44,760
Speaker 1: trust to cut it outside. Because of the belief that

245
00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:46,680
Speaker 1: he has on the perimeter, he's going to get great

246
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:49,360
Speaker 1: blocks on the outside from guys like Tyler Warren and

247
00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:52,360
Speaker 1: Pierce and Pittman. I mean, those guys are just off

248
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:54,560
Speaker 1: the charts for you in that regard. They were key

249
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:57,040
Speaker 1: on that eighty three yard run. He saw the Pierce

250
00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,360
Speaker 1: block on the way to the end zone for Taylor

251
00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:02,880
Speaker 1: on that long touchdown run. How much credit should those guys,

252
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:07,320
Speaker 1: those skill players get around Taylor for his greatness this season.

253
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:09,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think it's all encompassing. I mean, obviously it

254
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:12,479
Speaker 5: starts up front, but those perimeter blocks by the wideouts

255
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:15,559
Speaker 5: out there, they're just as big, you know, because when

256
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:18,240
Speaker 5: he does pop it on the perimeter, we need those

257
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:20,520
Speaker 5: blocks on the outside to free those big runs.

258
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:21,920
Speaker 3: And yeah, those guys, like.

259
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:24,280
Speaker 5: You said, I have just been doing a phenomenal job for us,

260
00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:26,760
Speaker 5: you know, to break those home run runs.

261
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:29,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, you mentioned Tyler Warren a little bit earlier. By

262
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:31,160
Speaker 1: the way, Shane stiking with us here on Colts Round

263
00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:34,960
Speaker 1: Table live tonight, Tyler Warren ninety nine yards receiving. But

264
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:37,880
Speaker 1: he was a beast on the ground, the great block

265
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:40,640
Speaker 1: on the game winning touchdown run by Jonathan Taylor there

266
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:45,319
Speaker 1: in the overtime. How impressed are you with his clutch ability?

267
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:48,080
Speaker 1: I mean, he's a rookie making these fourth down catches,

268
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:52,280
Speaker 1: these fourth quarter catches and overtime over the shoulder grabs.

269
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:56,880
Speaker 1: I mean, a rookie doesn't produce you know that fluently

270
00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 1: if you will, this early on in the season, those

271
00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:00,720
Speaker 1: big time clutch moments.

272
00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:03,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, he showed up obviously when we needed him.

273
00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:05,320
Speaker 5: He's been showing up for us all year. But in

274
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:09,120
Speaker 5: those clutch moments, that's big, and especially for a rookie,

275
00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:10,880
Speaker 5: you know, to put the ball in his hands in

276
00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:15,440
Speaker 5: those situations the fourth and two there, Yeah, obviously the

277
00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:18,800
Speaker 5: big catch, like we talked about earlier and overtime, the

278
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:21,520
Speaker 5: way he was able to get his hands up over

279
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:24,000
Speaker 5: that thing and reel it in and get both feet

280
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,920
Speaker 5: down on the sideline was just tremendous. And those are

281
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,080
Speaker 5: the type of plays you need, you know, from your

282
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:29,760
Speaker 5: big time players.

283
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:31,560
Speaker 3: And obviously being a rookie. He's one of our big

284
00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:32,520
Speaker 3: time players.

285
00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:34,280
Speaker 1: No doubt about it. All Right, last couple of questions

286
00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:36,120
Speaker 1: before I get into the fan questions, I do want

287
00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:37,200
Speaker 1: to ask you about the trip.

288
00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:37,960
Speaker 3: All right.

289
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:41,600
Speaker 1: What was your impression of the energy in the stadium.

290
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:44,520
Speaker 1: I mean, it felt like it felt like a super

291
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:47,760
Speaker 1: Bowl game. It felt like a playoff game. It was loud,

292
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:50,800
Speaker 1: and everybody there. Shane was just happy to be there,

293
00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:52,200
Speaker 1: to be watching American football.

294
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:52,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was.

295
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:55,680
Speaker 5: It really was amazing to play in that stadium. The

296
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:58,400
Speaker 5: history that's gone on in that stadium. You could feel

297
00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,800
Speaker 5: it in pregame, warm us and the fans. And then

298
00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:04,000
Speaker 5: when they start singing those songs, I mean that's when

299
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:06,960
Speaker 5: it got really loud in there, and they were singing

300
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:09,920
Speaker 5: Sweet Caroline and Old West Virginia and that thing was

301
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:11,000
Speaker 5: rocking and they're.

302
00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:11,960
Speaker 3: Doing the wave. I mean it was.

303
00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:13,679
Speaker 5: It was pretty special, you know, to be a part

304
00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:17,079
Speaker 5: of something like that. Obviously, first NFL game played over

305
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:19,840
Speaker 5: there in that stadium was really historic and just you know,

306
00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:22,880
Speaker 5: very thankful and privilege, you know, to be a.

307
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:23,200
Speaker 3: Part of that.

308
00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:26,080
Speaker 1: But those things aren't happening during time outs. I mean

309
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:28,240
Speaker 1: they are, but they're also bleeding over to the game.

310
00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:30,920
Speaker 1: You're trying to call plays when people are singing John

311
00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:34,320
Speaker 1: denver Man, how tough is that seventy five thousand strong

312
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:36,440
Speaker 1: with a chorus? Yeah, no, you try, You try to

313
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:37,000
Speaker 1: block it out.

314
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:38,760
Speaker 5: You're kind of locked in the zone a little bit,

315
00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:41,360
Speaker 5: and then you know, obviously within a quarter or something,

316
00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:43,120
Speaker 5: a quarter happens and you know you can hear it.

317
00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:45,000
Speaker 3: It was pretty loud, So like I said, it was,

318
00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:46,680
Speaker 3: it was. It was pretty special to be a part of.

319
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,800
Speaker 1: Lastly, how did the trip go? Just overall from your

320
00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:52,960
Speaker 1: vantage point? Was it a success with the practicing and

321
00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:56,400
Speaker 1: the logistics to be able to perform and prepare before

322
00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:56,680
Speaker 1: the game.

323
00:14:56,760 --> 00:14:58,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, I thought it was really smooth.

324
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:01,000
Speaker 5: I thought our operations staffed at a great job of

325
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:05,960
Speaker 5: preparing all that, the hotels, the flights, the buses, everything

326
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:08,400
Speaker 5: that goes into it. The behind the scenes stuff was

327
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:10,680
Speaker 5: as smooth that, you know, as smooth as it could be.

328
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:13,720
Speaker 5: And I thought our guys handled it well. And we're

329
00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:15,440
Speaker 5: locked in and you knew that we were going on

330
00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 5: a business trip over there, and and I thought it

331
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:18,520
Speaker 5: was just.

332
00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:19,800
Speaker 3: A great, great thing.

333
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:20,720
Speaker 1: Are you jet lagged?

334
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:23,360
Speaker 3: I actually feel pretty good. I might hit me you

335
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:23,960
Speaker 3: know here.

336
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:25,720
Speaker 1: In a little bit. Yeah, yeah, all right, I'm right

337
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:27,720
Speaker 1: there with you. All right, let's take a few questions

338
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:30,040
Speaker 1: here to close out here from the fans. Submit your

339
00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:33,200
Speaker 1: questions using hashtag Colts round Table every week.

340
00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:33,400
Speaker 6: Here.

341
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 1: Brad is up first, coach, how did you think our

342
00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:38,640
Speaker 1: defensive line held up without DeForest Buckner?

343
00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:40,360
Speaker 5: You know what, I thought they did a really good job.

344
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:42,840
Speaker 5: We knew going into that game. You know, Robinson's a

345
00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:44,440
Speaker 5: hell of a running back, and I thought our guys

346
00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:46,360
Speaker 5: did a really good job there. I think they had

347
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:48,760
Speaker 5: I mean one twenty on the ground, you know, two

348
00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:51,960
Speaker 5: hundred and ninety yards a total offense, so to hold

349
00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:54,000
Speaker 5: you know, both those runners and the other runners a

350
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:54,800
Speaker 5: hell of a runner too.

351
00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:55,680
Speaker 1: I thought I was er.

352
00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:58,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, I thought our d line did a real nice

353
00:15:58,200 --> 00:15:58,640
Speaker 3: job there.

354
00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:01,400
Speaker 1: All right. Daniel's up now he's asking how did Sauce

355
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:03,840
Speaker 1: Gardner look to you in his first game? And how

356
00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:06,480
Speaker 1: much does he need the bye week to get further

357
00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:07,920
Speaker 1: up to speed with the defense?

358
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:09,280
Speaker 3: You know, I thought he looked awesome.

359
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:12,120
Speaker 5: He's a very intelligent player too, and so he came

360
00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:15,720
Speaker 5: in obviously learning the playbook, learned a lot, you know,

361
00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:17,680
Speaker 5: in a short amount of time, so it'll be good

362
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:21,200
Speaker 5: have the buye to keep studying and studying. But watching

363
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:23,880
Speaker 5: his first performance with us, you could just see the

364
00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:26,920
Speaker 5: stickiness and coverage. You know, he was all over it,

365
00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:30,120
Speaker 5: almost had a pick six there, jumped a route. Yeah,

366
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:33,480
Speaker 5: I mean, he's just a tremendous talent. We're very fortunate

367
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:34,560
Speaker 5: to have him on our team.

368
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:36,880
Speaker 1: All right, this one coming from Randy. Last one here.

369
00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:39,880
Speaker 1: We've allowed twelve sacks in the last two games after

370
00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 1: giving up just nine sacks in the first eight. I

371
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:45,240
Speaker 1: know you talked about this earlier with the media, but

372
00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:47,960
Speaker 1: the question here is what are the biggest factors into

373
00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:50,840
Speaker 1: why we've seen our protection decrease recently.

374
00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:53,480
Speaker 3: Well, I think every sack has a story, you know.

375
00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:56,480
Speaker 5: I think, you know, sometimes a guy does get beat

376
00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:58,440
Speaker 5: by other times, you know, it's the play call, Like

377
00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:00,000
Speaker 5: I got to do a better job of calling it

378
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,840
Speaker 5: to put our guys in position so those don't happen,

379
00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:04,320
Speaker 5: you know. I Mean there's other times where you know,

380
00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:07,119
Speaker 5: Daniel scrambles out of the pocket and he runs one

381
00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:08,959
Speaker 5: yard behind the line of scrimmage and that counts as

382
00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:09,280
Speaker 5: a sack.

383
00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:11,320
Speaker 3: So all those things play into it.

384
00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:14,040
Speaker 5: But obviously we just got to get some things cleaned up,

385
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:14,959
Speaker 5: and it starts with myself.

386
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:18,080
Speaker 1: All Right, the bye week is here, and you still

387
00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:20,879
Speaker 1: have stuff to balance, right, even though there's no game,

388
00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:23,600
Speaker 1: there's still plenty to do. I think that's a little

389
00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:26,439
Speaker 1: bit of a misnomer out there. You've got a self scout,

390
00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:28,360
Speaker 1: you've got to get a leg up on the Chiefs,

391
00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:30,880
Speaker 1: but you also need to get away a little bit.

392
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:33,399
Speaker 1: So what's the order in which you try to do

393
00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:34,000
Speaker 1: those things?

394
00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:39,000
Speaker 5: Self scout first, obviously locking in on that stuff, looking

395
00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:42,200
Speaker 5: at some tendencies, and then start looking at the Chiefs

396
00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:43,800
Speaker 5: a little bit, and then obviously try to you know,

397
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:45,960
Speaker 5: spend some time with the family and get a little

398
00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:48,520
Speaker 5: bit of time with them before we start on Kansas

399
00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:49,120
Speaker 5: City next week.

400
00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 1: Absolutely, how much do you think the team needs the buy?

401
00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:51,960
Speaker 3: Right?

402
00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:54,560
Speaker 1: They're eight and two, they're off to a fantastic start.

403
00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:56,679
Speaker 1: I get that, but you guys have been at this

404
00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:59,399
Speaker 1: now NonStop since what July twenty fourth.

405
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:01,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think it's always good to, you know, get

406
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:04,160
Speaker 5: off your feet for a little bit, get some time

407
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:07,040
Speaker 5: away from it, and you know, guys got nis and

408
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:09,240
Speaker 5: bruises and stuff. It gives them, you know, an extra

409
00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:12,119
Speaker 5: week to heal up and stuff. Obviously heading into a

410
00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:13,639
Speaker 5: big game against Kansas City.

411
00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:17,200
Speaker 1: All right, Shane Stiking with us on Colts Round Table Live. Shane,

428

468
00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:05,320
Speaker 1: to learn about NFL football and doctrinate themselves on the

469
00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:08,320

00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:19,639
Speaker 1: on radio and all the different things you were a

474
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:21,400
Speaker 1: part of and the people that you got to meet.

475
00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:24,520
Speaker 7: Oh no, Matt, it was a blast. And Berlin was

476
00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:27,320
Speaker 7: such a great host city and you can feel the

477
00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:30,480
Speaker 7: love they have for the game of NFL football but

478
00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:32,720
Speaker 7: also for the Colts. And I think when you think

479
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:35,760
Speaker 7: about the impact of Bjorn Werner, you think about Bernard

480
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,520
Speaker 7: Ryman being from Austria. You know, it's interesting. I caught

481
00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:41,639
Speaker 7: up with Bernard after the game on the plane just

482
00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:43,240
Speaker 7: told him, Hey, I'm so happy for and he was

483
00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:45,920
Speaker 7: telling me about you know, he came to an International

484
00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:48,200
Speaker 7: Series game in London, you know when he was a

485
00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:50,640
Speaker 7: kid and kind of his love for the sport, which

486
00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 7: I didn't realize. But you see how the NFL is

487
00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:57,040
Speaker 7: growing internationally. And again, Berlin was a great host. The

488
00:21:57,080 --> 00:22:00,920
Speaker 7: Colts did an unbelievable job just fan engagement, audio signings,

489
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:02,960
Speaker 7: and you know Matt and coach, you know, they just

490
00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:04,600
Speaker 7: they just want to be a part of it. So

491
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:08,440
Speaker 7: you're signing Browns jerseys and Packers jerseys and baseball jerseys

492
00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:12,480
Speaker 7: and NBA jerseys but it's just neat to see, you know,

493
00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:14,919
Speaker 7: how much they love and appreciate being there. And then

494
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:17,480
Speaker 7: yesterday in Olympics Stadium, I mean that was just so

495
00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:20,199
Speaker 7: neat when you think about the history and everything that

496
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:22,960
Speaker 7: was there, and the nineteen thirty six Olympics and Jesse

497
00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:25,359
Speaker 7: Owens and Nazi Germany and you know, Matt where we

498
00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:28,960
Speaker 7: were stationed was probably about ten fifteen feet above where

499
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:31,359
Speaker 7: you know, Adolf Hitler's you know, kind of platform was

500
00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:33,280
Speaker 7: when he would take in those games. So I just

501
00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:37,119
Speaker 7: got chills walking into that stadium. And then for the fans,

502
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:39,440
Speaker 7: it was a blast. And my wife, you know, she's

503
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:41,879
Speaker 7: texted me during the game, She's like, are they cheering

504
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:44,120
Speaker 7: for the Colts or the Falcons. I'm like, hey, babe,

505
00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:46,639
Speaker 7: they're just cheering for whoever. They're cheering for themselves, singing

506
00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:50,359
Speaker 7: Country Roads take Me Home. But the spectacle right of

507
00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:53,520
Speaker 7: you know, the American national anthem and the German national

508
00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 7: anthem and the flags on the field, it felt to

509
00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:59,159
Speaker 7: me like somewhere in between a playoff game and a

510
00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:02,600
Speaker 7: Super Bowl tight feel. And I think anytime as a

511
00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:04,760
Speaker 7: player or coach you can get the chance to be

512
00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:07,639
Speaker 7: on the national stage it's something and you want to

513
00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:09,800
Speaker 7: show out, but then when you get a global Isaaco

514
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:13,040
Speaker 7: on the international stage. So it was just an unbelievable

515
00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:17,240
Speaker 7: three days culminated with a fantastic football game. Very happy

516
00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:21,200
Speaker 7: for the players, coaches, and the entire Colts organization because

517
00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:24,520
Speaker 7: the Colts certainly did their part to spread the game well.

518
00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:27,560
Speaker 7: And after two wins in the last three years in Germany,

519
00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:30,879
Speaker 7: I think that country of Germany there's gonna be a

520
00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:33,000
Speaker 7: lot more Colts fans for generations to come.

521
00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:35,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, a lot of blue all over the city of

522
00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:38,200
Speaker 1: Berlin all three days, you know, Friday, Saturday, and certainly

523
00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:42,320
Speaker 1: on Sunday at Olympic Stadium. That's incredibly well said Joe, writes,

524
00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:45,600
Speaker 1: Rick van Turrey, you are the star of the postgame show.

525
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:47,960
Speaker 1: Thanks so much for filling in there with Bill Brooks

526
00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:50,719
Speaker 1: unable to do that show. He had to have presidence

527
00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:54,359
Speaker 1: obviously on the trip with the Colts in Germany. But

528
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:57,159
Speaker 1: we certainly missed you overseas RV. But how did Sunday

529
00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:59,560
Speaker 1: go for you? Recapping the game in real time and

530
00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:02,720
Speaker 1: talk to the fans and celebrating eight wins for the

531
00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:04,280
Speaker 1: Colts out of their first ten games.

532
00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:07,119
Speaker 4: Well, it was great for me, great to work with Greg,

533
00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:09,200
Speaker 4: and really it was an honor to you know, to

534
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:11,480
Speaker 4: touch base with the fans, which I really don't get

535
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:15,000
Speaker 4: to do that much of. And obviously the result just

536
00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:18,480
Speaker 4: made it beautiful. And my view from here was what

537
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:21,520
Speaker 4: an event. I mean, obviously I didn't have to go

538
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:24,960
Speaker 4: through the pain of travel and preparedness that you guys did.

539
00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:28,080
Speaker 4: But when you watch that thing, it just it's almost

540
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:30,720
Speaker 4: the impact that reminds you of a playoff game. It's

541
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:35,080
Speaker 4: just absolutely crazy to see that. And of course I'm

542
00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:37,600
Speaker 4: of of the age, you know, I'm looking at eighty

543
00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:40,760
Speaker 4: and I was born in forty six, right after the

544
00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:43,600
Speaker 4: Second World War, so you know, we were brought up

545
00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:46,879
Speaker 4: with those visions and to see that German flag and

546
00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:52,000
Speaker 4: the American flag before the game, just I was taken

547
00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:55,600
Speaker 4: back by it, honestly, and just the buzz, the buzz

548
00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:58,960
Speaker 4: of the game, and obviously it couldn't have ended better

549
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:03,000
Speaker 4: for us, but I just thought it was just so impactful. Yeah,

550
00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:04,800
Speaker 4: hard to express it, really.

551
00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:07,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree. I mean, it's something that I will

552
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:10,640
Speaker 1: never forget. It was an electric atmosphere. It was so

553
00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:14,800
Speaker 1: energetic and so enthusiastic and so loud. Like you said, Joe,

554
00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:18,800
Speaker 1: they were cheering about everything. They were cheering about first

555
00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:23,040
Speaker 1: downs or third down stops, or fuel goals or second

556
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:26,120
Speaker 1: and five. They brought the noise. All right, we got

557
00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:28,879
Speaker 1: a lot to get into tonight. Of course, coming up

558
00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:32,680
Speaker 1: on segment three, we've got the bye week meter. All right,

559
00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:36,240
Speaker 1: These are a few areas and instances to highlight for

560
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:38,920
Speaker 1: the Colts, and we're going to discuss where they rank

561
00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:41,760
Speaker 1: on the bye week meter here, red, yellow, or green.

562
00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:44,480
Speaker 1: You get the idea which ones are positives and which

563
00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 1: ones are negatives on that. So we'll take a look

564
00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:49,000
Speaker 1: at a couple of areas for the Colts now that

565
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:51,640
Speaker 1: they have a week off here in week number eleven.

566
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:55,160
Speaker 1: Then in segment four, we're taking your social media questions

567
00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:57,720
Speaker 1: on the mail bag. Hashtag Colts Roundtable is the best

568
00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:00,240
Speaker 1: way to do that. You can reach us on with

569
00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:02,680
Speaker 1: that hashtag. But on this segment we always let Rick

570
00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:06,080
Speaker 1: and Joe comment on their initial reactions from the game.

571
00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:11,320
Speaker 1: It's time for the Tale of the tape.

572
00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:13,800
Speaker 3: Baby raising hell today.

573
00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:16,960
Speaker 5: Okay, go fallas bang bang player bang bang, keep.

574
00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:19,280
Speaker 6: The hammer down, keep talking to one another, man to

575
00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:19,800
Speaker 6: clean it up.

576
00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:20,240
Speaker 3: That's all.

577
00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:23,800
Speaker 4: Get rdy, get righty.

578
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:27,639
Speaker 1: The Colts are eight and two, still in first place

579
00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:30,200
Speaker 1: in the AFC South and the AFC heading into the

580
00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:33,440
Speaker 1: by They won a thrilling overtime game against the Falcons

581
00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:37,040
Speaker 1: in Berlin and Jonathan Taylor the star of the game,

582
00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:40,080
Speaker 1: rushing for two hundred and forty four yards, the second

583
00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:43,359
Speaker 1: highest total of his career, the second highest total in

584
00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:46,879
Speaker 1: Colts history. He also rushed for three touchdowns, including the

585
00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:50,119
Speaker 1: game winner. They are in overtime. Sunday, he passed Edrin

586
00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:53,479
Speaker 1: James for the most rushing touchdowns in team history. He

587
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:56,080
Speaker 1: now has sixty six of them. And then the defense

588
00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:58,880
Speaker 1: held Michael Pennix to a season low forty two percent

589
00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:01,560
Speaker 1: and gave up just two hundred and ninety yards of

590
00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:05,080
Speaker 1: total offense to Atlanta. So, Joe, feel free to start

591
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:07,159
Speaker 1: us off here, man, what is your tail of the tape?

592
00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:09,120
Speaker 1: After a win for the Colts in Germany.

593
00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:11,520
Speaker 7: Yeah, Well, my number one key going into the game

594
00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:14,159
Speaker 7: was whatever it takes. And these international games, for a

595
00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:17,720
Speaker 7: variety of reasons, matt often are very close. I think

596
00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:20,560
Speaker 7: they favor the underdog. They usually just seem to be

597
00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:23,160
Speaker 7: tight games. And you know, the game started out as

598
00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:25,080
Speaker 7: a track meeting. I mean they were the Falcons were

599
00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:27,560
Speaker 7: going fast and we were scoring two play drives and

600
00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:29,560
Speaker 7: it was boom, boom boom, and then it kind of

601
00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:31,879
Speaker 7: slowed to a lull, and I think Atlanta, you know,

602
00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:34,200
Speaker 7: they started heating us up a little bit. Obviously we'll

603
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,840
Speaker 7: get into that pass protection wise, but you know, one

604
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:39,200
Speaker 7: comment I had from watching it and talking to some players,

605
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:42,000
Speaker 7: you know, the field because conditions are just different over there.

606
00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:45,080
Speaker 7: It wasn't raining, but with all the do there and

607
00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:47,159
Speaker 7: how overcast it was, it was wet. I think you

608
00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:49,920
Speaker 7: saw that with drop passes and just kind of some

609
00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:53,280
Speaker 7: loose ball security all around. But I really felt like

610
00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:57,919
Speaker 7: going into halftime when we came out and Atlanta you know,

611
00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:01,760
Speaker 7: sacked us again. Whatever team was playing downhill and what

612
00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:04,119
Speaker 7: I mean by running the ball hard downhill or when

613
00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:06,280
Speaker 7: they were blitz and they were bringing everybody and they

614
00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:08,520
Speaker 7: were just trying to collapse the pocket. But it's hard

615
00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:11,480
Speaker 7: on those field and those surfaces when you're wearing seven

616
00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:14,600
Speaker 7: stud cleats and things differently really to kind of secure

617
00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:16,840
Speaker 7: the pocket, if that makes sense, more so than playing

618
00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:20,040
Speaker 7: on your normal turf surface. But I love what Shane

619
00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:22,240
Speaker 7: Stiken did. He just said you know what, we're a

620
00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:25,080
Speaker 7: little unsettled offensively, We're gonna settle down and we're just

621
00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:27,800
Speaker 7: gonna start pounding JT. And boy did we do that.

622
00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:31,000
Speaker 7: And just like he always does, he goes, he goes,

623
00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:32,679
Speaker 7: he goes, and boom, you break the big one. And

624
00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:35,560
Speaker 7: that eighty three yard run was something certainly special, especially

625
00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:39,040
Speaker 7: when you think about breaking Edgerrin james franchise record. You know, Matt,

626
00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:42,560
Speaker 7: your your call was just unbelievable there and then but

627
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:44,600
Speaker 7: we and then but the Falcons came down and they

628
00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:47,400
Speaker 7: raned on us and scored, and that field goal late

629
00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:49,640
Speaker 7: and I wanted to play I want to highlight third

630
00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:52,840
Speaker 7: and twenty one. After the sack, Joan scrambles from nineteen

631
00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:56,000
Speaker 7: yard gets it all the way back and that allows

632
00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:59,000
Speaker 7: that big completion to warn there to keep the game alive.

633
00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:02,720
Speaker 7: And and then you had the coin toss malfunction where

634
00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:06,280
Speaker 7: we call it we take the ball, no Atlanta, they

635
00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:07,720
Speaker 7: get a call it as a visiting team, they take

636
00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:10,680
Speaker 7: the ball. And then that pass interference which was bogus

637
00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:13,440
Speaker 7: on Mooney. You know, he just completely ran over blackmen.

638
00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:16,280
Speaker 7: They called it on us, but Zi H. Franklin really

639
00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 7: stepped up and then we gave it to JT and

640
00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:20,640
Speaker 7: it was a beautiful thing to watch it just boom

641
00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:23,400
Speaker 7: boom boom for the walk off rushing touchdown. So all

642
00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:25,600
Speaker 7: in all, there's a lot of things to fix, but

643
00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:27,840
Speaker 7: I think in those games, whatever it takes to win.

644
00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:30,760
Speaker 7: But I think you really saw the Colts for a

645
00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:32,760
Speaker 7: lot of different I mean, offensively, as long as we

646
00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:34,520
Speaker 7: don't turn the ball over and we shore some things

647
00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:37,160
Speaker 7: up in protection, we're going to score thirty forty points

648
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:39,440
Speaker 7: a game. And when you get into games like that, Matt,

649
00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:43,760
Speaker 7: this will be my last comment. December football. January football,

650
00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:47,760
Speaker 7: bad elements, tough weather, you're playing outside, having the offensive

651
00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:51,120
Speaker 7: line the Colts do, having the blockers and Pittman and Warren,

652
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:54,000
Speaker 7: especially when Warren goes that fullback position, and then having

653
00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:57,080
Speaker 7: the premiere running back in the NFL like Jonathan Taylor.

654
00:29:57,280 --> 00:30:01,040
Speaker 7: That makes me really excited because that last couple drives

655
00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:04,000
Speaker 7: that was January football ish, if you know what I'm saying,

656
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:06,120
Speaker 7: where the Falcons knew were running the ball and there

657
00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:07,280
Speaker 7: was nothing they could do to stop it.

658
00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:12,479
Speaker 4: Yeah, Sunday and Berlin just reminded me of a lesson

659
00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:14,880
Speaker 4: that I learned back in nineteen eighty two as a

660
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:18,760
Speaker 4: rookie NFL coach. And that is no matter at what

661
00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:22,240
Speaker 4: time you play the game or what continent you play

662
00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:26,000
Speaker 4: it on. It is so hard to win an NFL game,

663
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:31,480
Speaker 4: you know, despite being substantially and statistically the better team,

664
00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:34,560
Speaker 4: Atlanta took us to the mat. They took us to

665
00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:39,200
Speaker 4: the last one hundred seconds of an upset. But in

666
00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:43,719
Speaker 4: that one hundred seconds and in that overtime, every single

667
00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:48,720
Speaker 4: aspect of this team showed its character, its ability to

668
00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:53,320
Speaker 4: pull victory from the jaws of defeat. You know, despite

669
00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:58,200
Speaker 4: our own self destruction with sacks, turnovers, penalties, poor third

670
00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:04,880
Speaker 4: down efficiency, crunch tang, the Colts prevailed. Jonathan continues his

671
00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:11,160
Speaker 4: historic season two forty four eighty two total. It's just

672
00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:15,480
Speaker 4: unbelievable what he's doing. In three tds, Warren was mister

673
00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:19,880
Speaker 4: clutch again between the two of them, almost four hundred

674
00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:24,960
Speaker 4: yards and you know again, and then Danny bloodied and

675
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:27,400
Speaker 4: taken a beating that he took. You know, as you

676
00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:30,760
Speaker 4: guys have chronicled, the nineteen yard run saved the game

677
00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:34,280
Speaker 4: third and twenty one and we're not in field goal range.

678
00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:38,959
Speaker 4: That saved the game, no question about it. Special teams terrific.

679
00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:44,480
Speaker 4: You know, Dulan basically downs and then Abdullah the return

680
00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:49,000
Speaker 4: game set the table. Abdullah's run back to midfield, there

681
00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:53,240
Speaker 4: is no question, set the table and badually just even

682
00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:55,920
Speaker 4: though he was uneven when he had to put it through.

683
00:31:55,960 --> 00:32:00,000
Speaker 4: He did the defense which was which uneven all day long,

684
00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:03,440
Speaker 4: didn't stop the run, but they stopped Pannix in the overtime,

685
00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:06,080
Speaker 4: they shut him down. They had a really good day

686
00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:10,160
Speaker 4: on third down, and then in the final analysis we

687
00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:14,440
Speaker 4: rode jt As coach Lombardi would say, we ran to win.

688
00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:17,080
Speaker 4: You know, I think some things that I took out

689
00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:19,000
Speaker 4: of it because I don't think you could be in

690
00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:22,120
Speaker 4: a happiness camp. I think you savor the victory and

691
00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:25,000
Speaker 4: certainly savor the eight and two, but I think your

692
00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:27,720
Speaker 4: mind has to be on the big prize now, and

693
00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:29,760
Speaker 4: there's certain things that are good and certain things that

694
00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:32,000
Speaker 4: have to be fixed. I think number one the first

695
00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:34,720
Speaker 4: thing that stood out, and Joe alluded to it. I

696
00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:37,920
Speaker 4: felt consciously at eight fifty five in the third quarter

697
00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:41,280
Speaker 4: that Shane made the decision that we were shaky in

698
00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:45,440
Speaker 4: protection with Danny was shaky, and now it was time

699
00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:49,160
Speaker 4: to ride the big horse and basically, we rode Jonathan

700
00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:52,600
Speaker 4: and he turned it into bully ball, running the football.

701
00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:54,880
Speaker 4: If he needed to throw, he threw it to his

702
00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:58,440
Speaker 4: other ambient and Warren. But by and large, he took

703
00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:01,080
Speaker 4: over the game. He took over the front and I

704
00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:04,040
Speaker 4: thought that's a credit to him in terms of in

705
00:33:04,120 --> 00:33:06,640
Speaker 4: game field. You can have all the analytics in the world,

706
00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:09,160
Speaker 4: but at some point you have to have really good

707
00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:12,360
Speaker 4: in game feel and that shows his growth as a

708
00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:15,040
Speaker 4: head coach. Now, some things that I think you have

709
00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:18,480
Speaker 4: to address. I think this is the second game out

710
00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:20,920
Speaker 4: of three where we don't have a good sense of

711
00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:24,480
Speaker 4: urgency before the half. I thought we wasted time, and

712
00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:26,640
Speaker 4: even if you want to be the last guy out,

713
00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:29,120
Speaker 4: you don't do it early in the drive. You get

714
00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:31,239
Speaker 4: down there and it's easy to stall when you get

715
00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:34,680
Speaker 4: in their territory. And you know, obviously we ended up

716
00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:37,280
Speaker 4: with a sack and an interception, but I thought we

717
00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:40,360
Speaker 4: started to drive lethargic, just like we did two weeks ago.

718
00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:43,800
Speaker 4: The one hundred and forty yards rushing on defense will

719
00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:46,920
Speaker 4: catch up to us. We've got to figure out, without Buckner,

720
00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:50,160
Speaker 4: how we're going to fix that. That can't continue. And

721
00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:53,480
Speaker 4: then the seven sacks on Sunday twelve in the last

722
00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:57,160
Speaker 4: two weeks. That is not winning, is not sustainable with that,

723
00:33:57,160 --> 00:33:59,840
Speaker 4: that has to change. We'll talk about as we go

724
00:33:59,880 --> 00:34:03,720
Speaker 4: on again. Enjoy and savor this great win and this

725
00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:07,760
Speaker 4: spectacle and the eight and two, but think big prize

726
00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:10,600
Speaker 4: and what improvements that you have to make. That's what

727
00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:13,920
Speaker 4: Dubai Week is for, right, You think improvements and you

728
00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:15,840
Speaker 4: got to take it. You got to think about it,

729
00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:17,239
Speaker 4: and you got to take it to get there.

730
00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:19,640
Speaker 1: All right, that's the tail of the tape with Rick

731
00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:23,160
Speaker 1: Venturrey and Joe Wrights. Those are their reactions from watching

762
00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:06,359
Speaker 1: the fellas looked at the game film from week ten.

763
00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:09,520
Speaker 1: Now it's time to roll out a little bit of

764
00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:12,719
Speaker 1: a self scout evaluation before we begin to the bye week.

765
00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:15,160
Speaker 1: Meter I do want to ask you guys this question,

766
00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:18,480
Speaker 1: right because oftentimes teams talk about, hey, we're on the

767
00:36:18,520 --> 00:36:22,000
Speaker 1: by it's time to take a self scout during the bye. So, Joe,

768
00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:24,799
Speaker 1: what does this self scout consist of? Are they game

769
00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:28,680
Speaker 1: planning to play themselves hypothetically or are they self scouting

770
00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:32,880
Speaker 1: certain position groups, certain skill sets, tendencies. What does a

771
00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:35,759
Speaker 1: self scout look like for NFL teams on the buy

772
00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:36,719
Speaker 1: for sure?

773
00:36:36,719 --> 00:36:38,880
Speaker 7: And coach will talk to it as the coaching perspective.

774
00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:43,080
Speaker 7: As a player, you're going back and watching your individual technique. Okay,

775
00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:45,640
Speaker 7: where have I played well the first half of the season.

776
00:36:45,840 --> 00:36:47,759
Speaker 7: Where have I struggled as alignment? Where have I given

777
00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:50,880
Speaker 7: up a sack or a pressure or been loose? And

778
00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:52,960
Speaker 7: you watch those plays and is it my footwork? Is

779
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:55,160
Speaker 7: it my hand placement? Because when you get going on

780
00:36:55,160 --> 00:36:58,439
Speaker 7: the hamster wheel, sometimes you get game slippage. In terms

781
00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:01,960
Speaker 7: of your individual technique. Players usually meet with your position coaches.

782
00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:04,279
Speaker 7: They'll give you a couple tips their thought. You'll watch

783
00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:06,520
Speaker 7: your own film. But it's a good way to evaluate

784
00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:09,480
Speaker 7: how can I get my individual technique better so I

785
00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:11,439
Speaker 7: can best help the team. But coach, I know, self

786
00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:14,040
Speaker 7: scout usually is more coaching wise. So if you're Jim

787
00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:17,240
Speaker 7: Bob Cooter, lou An Roumo, what are those coaches doing

788
00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:19,800
Speaker 7: this week to prepare for the back half of the season.

789
00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:23,200
Speaker 4: Well, basically, self scouting is ongoing. You do a week

790
00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:25,799
Speaker 4: to week to week to week. If you're waiting till now,

791
00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:28,759
Speaker 4: you're probably in trouble. But normally that part of the

792
00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:32,920
Speaker 4: game is done by your defensive assistance and your offensive assistance.

793
00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:36,160
Speaker 4: You know, your lower ring guys who are really responsible

794
00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:39,080
Speaker 4: for those numbers, and what you see. What the bye

795
00:37:39,080 --> 00:37:41,640
Speaker 4: week gives you is a chance to sit down as

796
00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:45,239
Speaker 4: a staff now and it gives you an opportunity to

797
00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:49,880
Speaker 4: one evaluate your weaknesses. Where are we where are we struggling?

798
00:37:50,680 --> 00:37:55,279
Speaker 4: What is our predictability? I think that's a very important thing.

799
00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:58,399
Speaker 4: You know, are we blitzing all the time on third down?

800
00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:01,680
Speaker 4: What is our ten and see sheet as they look

801
00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:05,399
Speaker 4: at us. That's a big evaluation, you know, And then

802
00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:09,000
Speaker 4: obviously you come up with the solutions as you go forward,

803
00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:12,799
Speaker 4: you know, with all those things in mind, tendencies, weaknesses

804
00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:18,680
Speaker 4: and predictability tables. But at the same time you have

805
00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:21,759
Speaker 4: a chance to talk about what you're looking at in

806
00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:25,360
Speaker 4: this final eight weeks, you know, particularly teams like Kansas

807
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:29,040
Speaker 4: City and Seattle, who are you know, top tier teams,

808
00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:32,200
Speaker 4: particularly Seattle who we don't know much about. So huge

809
00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:35,160
Speaker 4: week here. This used to be a bit of a

810
00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:38,080
Speaker 4: practice week also for our young players, but that's kind

811
00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:40,640
Speaker 4: of gone south. So you know, this is just a

812
00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:43,759
Speaker 4: time and this is an absolutely perfect thank god we

813
00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:45,760
Speaker 4: ended it with a win, but this is a perfect

814
00:38:45,760 --> 00:38:46,560
Speaker 4: time for a buye.

815
00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:49,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, no question about it. So that good little segue

816
00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:52,520
Speaker 1: there that brings us to the bye week meter here.

817
00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:55,080
Speaker 1: So ten games for the Colts eight and two start.

818
00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:57,320
Speaker 1: What I'm going to do is roll out a couple

819
00:38:57,320 --> 00:38:59,319
Speaker 1: of areas for the team now that we're on the

820
00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:02,680
Speaker 1: by and you fellas discuss if these areas need to

821
00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:06,319
Speaker 1: land in the green area, yellow or red area. Green

822
00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:09,280
Speaker 1: is good, yellow somewhere in the middle, and red means

823
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:12,120
Speaker 1: it needs major addressing during the bye week. So let's

824
00:39:12,120 --> 00:39:15,600
Speaker 1: go rapid fire here. Let's go to Joe. You're first

825
00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:18,880
Speaker 1: up here talking about ball security. Okay, so through eight weeks,

826
00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:21,960
Speaker 1: the Colts had just one loss, fumble and three picks.

827
00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:25,400
Speaker 1: But Joe, after Sunday's game in Berlin, they've now committed

828
00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:30,799
Speaker 1: seven interceptions and four fumbles, nearly tripling the total over

829
00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:34,200
Speaker 1: just two weeks. So where does the Colt's ball security

830
00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:37,800
Speaker 1: rank on the bye week meter? Joe, Red, yellow or green?

831
00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:41,040
Speaker 7: I'm going yellow, Matt. Now, two games is a trend,

832
00:39:41,080 --> 00:39:43,839
Speaker 7: and that's concerning. But I'm going yellow still because through

833
00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:45,960
Speaker 7: the first eight you protected it so well. But here's

834
00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:49,120
Speaker 7: the bottom line. Our offense is so efficient running the

835
00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:52,279
Speaker 7: ball and throwing the ball with Danny that turnovers is

836
00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:54,160
Speaker 7: really the only thing that's going to hamstring us. And

837
00:39:54,239 --> 00:39:56,920
Speaker 7: so we got to be tighter with the ball. And

838
00:39:56,960 --> 00:40:00,719
Speaker 7: whether that's protection, just individual guys, better ball, all security,

839
00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:04,120
Speaker 7: no throwing interceptions. If we take care of the ball, Matt,

840
00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:05,719
Speaker 7: we're gonna put up thirty game. We're gonna be really

841
00:40:05,760 --> 00:40:07,680
Speaker 7: hard to beat. So yellow for me on this one.

842
00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:11,200
Speaker 1: All right, let's go to protection up front. On Sunday,

843
00:40:11,239 --> 00:40:14,600
Speaker 1: the Colts offensive line allowed seven sacks to the very

844
00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:18,040
Speaker 1: blitz happy Falcons. Daniel Jones, Now Rick Vanentury's been sacked

845
00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:21,200
Speaker 1: twelve times in the last two weeks in Pittsburgh and

846
00:40:21,239 --> 00:40:24,120
Speaker 1: in Berlin. Now, the difference in Week ten compared to

847
00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:27,400
Speaker 1: Week nine in Pittsburgh for Daniel Jones was his ability

848
00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:29,960
Speaker 1: to escape the pocket pick up yards with his legs.

849
00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:32,960
Speaker 1: He had seven carries for fifty three yards against the Falcons,

850
00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:34,800
Speaker 1: so that kind of kept the Colts on schedule a

851
00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:37,480
Speaker 1: little bit. But the Colts allowed nine sacks in the

852
00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:41,040
Speaker 1: first eight games, but twelve in the last two. Rick,

853
00:40:41,120 --> 00:40:44,360
Speaker 1: So where does the Colts' pass rush protection rank on

854
00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:47,080
Speaker 1: the bye week meter? For you? Is it red, yellow

855
00:40:47,200 --> 00:40:47,640
Speaker 1: or green?

856
00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:51,839
Speaker 4: Yeah? Now for me? For me, because of that disparity,

857
00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:54,800
Speaker 4: this is a writ this can't happen. This will cost

858
00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:58,480
Speaker 4: us where we want to go. And it's two different

859
00:40:58,560 --> 00:41:01,960
Speaker 4: types of issues. Week ago at Pittsburgh, it was simply

860
00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:04,719
Speaker 4: getting beat one on one on the edge. I think

861
00:41:04,760 --> 00:41:09,239
Speaker 4: both the staff and the and the offensive line underestimated

862
00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:13,360
Speaker 4: how good those edge guys were. And basically now that

863
00:41:13,480 --> 00:41:16,080
Speaker 4: they not only got three sacks, they had two turnovers

864
00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:19,560
Speaker 4: on strip sacks and those were all edge individuals. Those

865
00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:23,000
Speaker 4: were on the offensive line. This week it was on

866
00:41:23,120 --> 00:41:29,120
Speaker 4: the coordination between backs offensive lines, tight ends, and receivers.

867
00:41:29,239 --> 00:41:32,760
Speaker 4: This was a big blitz week. The blitz got us

868
00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:36,920
Speaker 4: several times. You know, basically, he was running for his life.

869
00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:40,319
Speaker 4: And the problem with this, the reason that I'm giving

870
00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:43,759
Speaker 4: it a red is I know Steve Spagnola very well.

871
00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:46,600
Speaker 4: I've worked with him, I mean he and this is

872
00:41:46,640 --> 00:41:49,400
Speaker 4: a copycat lead. Everything that's happened to you in the

873
00:41:49,480 --> 00:41:52,719
Speaker 4: last two weeks is going to be digested over and

874
00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:56,120
Speaker 4: over and you're going to get replays. So you either

875
00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:59,080
Speaker 4: fix it, particularly against Kansas City, or you die.

876
00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:02,040
Speaker 1: All right, bye week meter right there, that's great stuff.

877
00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:04,680
Speaker 1: Rick Venturi and Joe Wrights. I'm Matt Taylor. Let's talk

878
00:42:04,680 --> 00:42:07,080
Speaker 1: about Jonathan Taylor. Okay, it's just a matter of how

879
00:42:07,120 --> 00:42:10,359
Speaker 1: green this is. Ten games on the season, he's over

880
00:42:10,400 --> 00:42:14,680
Speaker 1: eleven hundred yards. He's got fifteen rushing touchdowns. He's averaging

881
00:42:14,719 --> 00:42:17,880
Speaker 1: one hundred and thirteen scrimmage yards per game for crying

882
00:42:17,880 --> 00:42:21,399
Speaker 1: out loud, and six yards per touch. He's the first

883
00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:24,760
Speaker 1: running back this season to eclipse one thousand rushing yards.

884
00:42:25,080 --> 00:42:28,480
Speaker 1: It marks his fourth season over one thousand yards for

885
00:42:28,600 --> 00:42:31,280
Speaker 1: his career, and again past Egrin James for the most

886
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:34,440
Speaker 1: rushing yards or I should say most rushing touchdowns. I

887
00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:38,120
Speaker 1: beg your pardon in club history. So again, Joe, where's

888
00:42:38,200 --> 00:42:40,600
Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor on the bye week meter? Is it green?

889
00:42:41,120 --> 00:42:44,600
Speaker 1: Is it neon green? Is it freshly mode grass in

890
00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:47,279
Speaker 1: the month of May? Green? How green is this meter?

891
00:42:47,480 --> 00:42:50,560
Speaker 1: For jat here at the bye week already over eleven

892
00:42:50,640 --> 00:42:52,040
Speaker 1: hundred yards on the ground.

893
00:42:52,280 --> 00:42:54,160
Speaker 7: You can give me any green you want there, man,

894
00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:56,560
Speaker 7: I'm gonna go the color of money green though, because

895
00:42:56,600 --> 00:42:58,600
Speaker 7: he has been money. He has been the guy to

896
00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:01,480
Speaker 7: be counted on. In just a couple things about Taylor.

897
00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:04,920
Speaker 7: I mean, two thousand yard season certainly in play, and

898
00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:07,319
Speaker 7: he's also got two receiving touchdowns, so when you think

899
00:43:07,320 --> 00:43:10,480
Speaker 7: about seventeen total touchdowns, he's on pace for twenty nine

900
00:43:10,600 --> 00:43:13,800
Speaker 7: thirty touchdowns. You know, LT's got the all time season

901
00:43:13,920 --> 00:43:16,359
Speaker 7: record at thirty one. I think he said in six

902
00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:18,120
Speaker 7: or oh seven, and that's something a lot of people

903
00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:21,000
Speaker 7: thought would never be touched. But that's certainly in play too,

904
00:43:21,120 --> 00:43:22,880
Speaker 7: So you can give them any green you want on

905
00:43:22,880 --> 00:43:24,920
Speaker 7: that one. Matt, that's probably the easiest question you'll ever

906
00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:28,480
Speaker 7: ask me, and I appreciate easiness.

907
00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:30,040
Speaker 1: Of that question. I just put it on a team man,

908
00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:32,239
Speaker 1: like you're in t ball, Go ahead and whack it

909
00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:34,839
Speaker 1: over the fence there, all right, last one, Rick fin Terry,

910
00:43:34,920 --> 00:43:37,279
Speaker 1: Let's talk about the rushing defense on the bye week

911
00:43:37,320 --> 00:43:40,280
Speaker 1: meter here a right, the rushing defense. It's been pretty

912
00:43:40,360 --> 00:43:42,319
Speaker 1: stout all season, but it's going to be put to

913
00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:45,200
Speaker 1: the test over the next three games. It was on

914
00:43:45,280 --> 00:43:48,920
Speaker 1: Sunday and Berlin, but without DeForest Buckner now on ir

915
00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:50,600
Speaker 1: he's going to miss the next three games with a

916
00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:53,600
Speaker 1: neck injury. The Colts haven't allowed a one hundred yard

917
00:43:53,719 --> 00:43:56,640
Speaker 1: rushier all season. The Colts against the run at the

918
00:43:56,680 --> 00:43:58,880
Speaker 1: by green, yellow or red here.

919
00:43:59,239 --> 00:44:02,040
Speaker 4: Well without nor to me, it's ruby red. It is

920
00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:03,880
Speaker 4: as red as you could be. You've given me the

921
00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:06,719
Speaker 4: two things that I think are the most important fixes

922
00:44:07,520 --> 00:44:10,400
Speaker 4: for the Colts, both the you know, the offensive protection,

923
00:44:10,560 --> 00:44:13,799
Speaker 4: the sack issue, and the run defensive issue. I think

924
00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:16,279
Speaker 4: those are the two biggest things that you've got to

925
00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:17,280
Speaker 4: come up with a fix.

926
00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:17,480
Speaker 3: Here.

927
00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:21,000
Speaker 4: Over the weekend, one hundred and forty runs and they

928
00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:23,520
Speaker 4: just ran through us on that last drive. That drive

929
00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:26,400
Speaker 4: could have ended it for us. They just scored too fast.

930
00:44:26,440 --> 00:44:29,160
Speaker 4: To be honest with you, but basically we are really

931
00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:32,319
Speaker 4: struggling like I was afraid we would. You know, I

932
00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:34,640
Speaker 4: give it to Loulu tried a lot of stuff. He

933
00:44:34,760 --> 00:44:37,680
Speaker 4: tried a lot of bear defense. But you know, I

934
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:40,000
Speaker 4: think we've got to look at some different players and

935
00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:42,880
Speaker 4: some different things. I think number one, I think we

936
00:44:42,960 --> 00:44:46,480
Speaker 4: have to have more linebacker fires on first down because

937
00:44:46,520 --> 00:44:50,920
Speaker 4: those back those those defensive linemen other than Grover get washed.

938
00:44:51,280 --> 00:44:53,080
Speaker 4: And so I think you have to you have to

939
00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:56,920
Speaker 4: create the fill with inside fires and then bring Kenny

940
00:44:56,960 --> 00:44:59,959
Speaker 4: off the edge and slant away so that you get

941
00:45:00,200 --> 00:45:04,160
Speaker 4: movement in there and penetration. Uh, because right now they're

942
00:45:04,200 --> 00:45:07,799
Speaker 4: just they're they're either dublin the three or running into

943
00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:11,239
Speaker 4: the bubble. And and honestly, uh, you know, I'm I'm

944
00:45:11,320 --> 00:45:14,480
Speaker 4: surprised that Atlanta really didn't come out and do that more.

945
00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:18,319
Speaker 4: I think Gallimore right now is a liability. I think

946
00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:21,840
Speaker 4: Addie is much better. Uh, but he's also the better

947
00:45:21,920 --> 00:45:25,120
Speaker 4: pass rusher, so you want him around for sub situations.

948
00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:27,839
Speaker 4: The other kid that I probably would take a look at,

949
00:45:28,160 --> 00:45:31,440
Speaker 4: and that's zat I. I I think Tua Meloa. I

950
00:45:31,719 --> 00:45:34,520
Speaker 4: think basically he's done a really good job moving him

951
00:45:34,560 --> 00:45:36,960
Speaker 4: inside on the pass rush. I mean he came around

952
00:45:37,360 --> 00:45:41,680
Speaker 4: on another on another tech stunt or another tom stunt

953
00:45:41,680 --> 00:45:44,320
Speaker 4: with the other tackle with Addie, and he came around

954
00:45:44,320 --> 00:45:47,279
Speaker 4: and you know, forced a big play. Uh uh there

955
00:45:47,320 --> 00:45:51,080
Speaker 4: early he forced the the roughing the passer penalty and

956
00:45:51,160 --> 00:45:54,640
Speaker 4: not roughing the pastor the intentional grounding. And so I

957
00:45:54,640 --> 00:45:57,360
Speaker 4: I just think he's kind of a physical kid. I

958
00:45:57,440 --> 00:45:59,560
Speaker 4: may run, I may try him a little bit at

959
00:45:59,600 --> 00:46:03,000
Speaker 4: the three some, you know, because I just think, you know,

960
00:46:03,080 --> 00:46:05,319
Speaker 4: between him and Addie, those are the two guys you're

961
00:46:05,360 --> 00:46:07,239
Speaker 4: left to play with. Yeah, and you got to help

962
00:46:07,280 --> 00:46:10,040
Speaker 4: them schematically, but they you know, they gotta they they've

963
00:46:10,080 --> 00:46:13,680
Speaker 4: got to get big because again copycat league that you know,

964
00:46:13,719 --> 00:46:14,759
Speaker 4: they're gonna come right at you.

965
00:46:14,880 --> 00:46:17,840
Speaker 1: All right, that's the rushing defense, Joe writes. Let's close

966
00:46:17,880 --> 00:46:20,480
Speaker 1: with you on the passing defense. They came into the game,

967
00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:24,080
Speaker 1: uh in week ten before they played the Falcons ranking

968
00:46:24,120 --> 00:46:27,680
Speaker 1: twenty sixth in the NFL against the pass. But on

969
00:46:27,800 --> 00:46:30,840
Speaker 1: Sunday they forced Michael Pennox into a season low forty

970
00:46:30,880 --> 00:46:34,160
Speaker 1: two percent completion percentage. And then coming out of the bye,

971
00:46:34,680 --> 00:46:36,960
Speaker 1: the Colts are gonna have, hopefully knock On Wood, a

972
00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:41,319
Speaker 1: healthy Tarvarius Ward and Sauce Gardner now in the secondary.

973
00:46:41,400 --> 00:46:44,520
Speaker 1: So where is the Colts passing defense on that by

974
00:46:44,600 --> 00:46:47,120
Speaker 1: week meter? For you, Joe Wrights, is it red, yellow

975
00:46:47,200 --> 00:46:48,759
Speaker 1: or green? With seven games to go?

976
00:46:49,239 --> 00:46:51,120
Speaker 7: I'm going yellow and we just got to get some

977
00:46:51,200 --> 00:46:53,680
Speaker 7: guys healthy. Ward comes back after the bye, and you

978
00:46:53,719 --> 00:46:55,959
Speaker 7: saw what they were moving London around. They were trying

979
00:46:55,960 --> 00:46:57,719
Speaker 7: to motion him, get him in the slot. So he

980
00:46:57,800 --> 00:47:00,839
Speaker 7: was off of Gardner. But you think when he comes back, man,

981
00:47:00,960 --> 00:47:03,799
Speaker 7: you think about him and Sauce and Ken anymore, who's

982
00:47:03,800 --> 00:47:06,759
Speaker 7: an elite nickel and buying him and crossing the secondary.

983
00:47:06,800 --> 00:47:08,719
Speaker 7: I would argue we could have the best secondary in

984
00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:12,239
Speaker 7: the NFL. Win healthy, and that sticky coverage is gonna

985
00:47:12,239 --> 00:47:14,479
Speaker 7: help the pass rush get even better. So I'm really

986
00:47:14,520 --> 00:47:17,719
Speaker 7: excited to see about where our past defense is gonna go.

987
00:47:18,080 --> 00:47:20,640
Speaker 7: The yellow is just the caution to just get guys

988
00:47:20,680 --> 00:47:22,520
Speaker 7: healthy and keep them healthy. It was good to see

989
00:47:22,600 --> 00:47:25,239
Speaker 7: Jones continue to play yesterday, but that's gonna be something

990
00:47:25,239 --> 00:47:27,160
Speaker 7: because thing you think about, you're gonna play some of

991
00:47:27,160 --> 00:47:29,920
Speaker 7: these top quarterbacks in the playoffs in the AFC, and

992
00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:32,560
Speaker 7: you're gonna have to shut down their passing game if

993
00:47:32,600 --> 00:47:33,520
Speaker 7: you're gonna want to survive.

994
00:47:33,640 --> 00:47:34,400
Speaker 3: Move on in advance.

995
00:47:34,520 --> 00:47:37,000

Speaker 1: here with Rick vent Tury and Joe Wrightzi'm Matt Taylor,

1021
00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:53,680
Speaker 1: and this segment is always brought to you by Meyer,

1022
00:48:54,080 --> 00:48:56,920
Speaker 1: the official super Center, of course of the Indianapolis Colts

1023
00:48:56,920 --> 00:49:00,160
Speaker 1: and a proud sponsor of hundreds of local sports teams

1024
00:49:00,200 --> 00:49:03,200
Speaker 1: across the Midwest. All Right, Kyle is up first on

1025
00:49:03,280 --> 00:49:06,759
Speaker 1: his submission on X. He's wanting to know how legitimate

1026
00:49:06,800 --> 00:49:09,480
Speaker 1: of a deep playoff team are we after an eight

1027
00:49:09,480 --> 00:49:12,319
Speaker 1: and two start, Jill Wrights, what are the things that

1028
00:49:12,400 --> 00:49:14,759
Speaker 1: could potentially hold us back in January?

1029
00:49:15,480 --> 00:49:17,680
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think we are legit, and I think it's

1030
00:49:17,719 --> 00:49:21,120
Speaker 7: because we're playing complimentary football. The kicking game was outstanding

1031
00:49:21,200 --> 00:49:25,080
Speaker 7: yesterday with the returns. Offensively, we have so much balance

1032
00:49:25,120 --> 00:49:26,919
Speaker 7: and like we saw, you have the ability to run

1033
00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:29,040
Speaker 7: the football when you need to and when other teams

1034
00:49:29,040 --> 00:49:30,680
Speaker 7: think that you need it. And we got to shore

1035
00:49:30,760 --> 00:49:32,960
Speaker 7: up some areas on defense. But you know, there's no

1036
00:49:33,080 --> 00:49:35,480
Speaker 7: reason the Colts can't make a deep run. What's interesting,

1037
00:49:35,520 --> 00:49:38,839
Speaker 7: Matt in the AFC, you know, preseason people would probably say, well,

1038
00:49:38,880 --> 00:49:41,640
Speaker 7: the Chiefs, the Ravens, the Bills, they're probably the three

1039
00:49:41,680 --> 00:49:44,160
Speaker 7: favorites on paper, right neither one of them is leading

1040
00:49:44,160 --> 00:49:46,200
Speaker 7: their division right now, you know, the Patriots are up

1041
00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:48,879
Speaker 7: there and the Broncos. And so my point is these

1042
00:49:48,920 --> 00:49:52,279
Speaker 7: last seven games, every win is so important because there's

1043
00:49:52,280 --> 00:49:54,279
Speaker 7: a big difference in being the one seed or the

1044
00:49:54,320 --> 00:49:57,279
Speaker 7: two seed or the four, the five in terms of

1045
00:49:57,280 --> 00:49:59,680
Speaker 7: getting more of those games at Lucas Oil where we're

1046
00:49:59,680 --> 00:50:01,480
Speaker 7: playing really well in front of our fans. So it's

1047
00:50:01,520 --> 00:50:03,400
Speaker 7: going to be exciting spring here to the finish, and

1048
00:50:03,840 --> 00:50:05,960
Speaker 7: no bigger one and no greater tests than to go

1049
00:50:05,960 --> 00:50:07,959
Speaker 7: into Kansas City coming off that box.

1050
00:50:08,040 --> 00:50:10,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's gonna be a huge game after some rest

1051
00:50:10,440 --> 00:50:12,600
Speaker 1: time for the Colts. All right, let's go to Cordon

1052
00:50:13,040 --> 00:50:14,960
Speaker 1: got time for one more here. Let's go to his

1053
00:50:15,120 --> 00:50:17,440
Speaker 1: question for Rick finn Terry. He's asking, Hey, Rick, do

1054
00:50:17,480 --> 00:50:20,600
Speaker 1: you think our pass rush is good enough to sustain

1055
00:50:21,160 --> 00:50:23,719
Speaker 1: without DeForest Buckner for the next couple of weeks. So

1056
00:50:23,719 --> 00:50:27,160
Speaker 1: we talked about Buckner's absence against the run, but what

1057
00:50:27,320 --> 00:50:31,000
Speaker 1: about the pass Because you could argue from a consistency standpoint,

1058
00:50:31,040 --> 00:50:34,160
Speaker 1: I should say DeForest Buckner has been the Colts' best

1059
00:50:34,239 --> 00:50:37,520
Speaker 1: pass rusher despite him playing defensive tackle, not defensive end.

1060
00:50:38,160 --> 00:50:42,160
Speaker 4: Oh absolutely, I mean, great, great comment, in an accurate comment.

1061
00:50:42,280 --> 00:50:44,920
Speaker 4: You know, there's no question about you know, we lost

1062
00:50:44,920 --> 00:50:48,240
Speaker 4: our best pass rusher and we took a big hit period.

1063
00:50:48,760 --> 00:50:52,000
Speaker 4: But to me, first down is more of a concern

1064
00:50:52,080 --> 00:50:54,719
Speaker 4: because that's an known down. You don't know if it's

1065
00:50:54,840 --> 00:50:58,040
Speaker 4: pass or run, so you have to play I won't

1066
00:50:58,040 --> 00:51:00,160
Speaker 4: say vanilla, but you have to play straight up up

1067
00:51:00,239 --> 00:51:03,720
Speaker 4: in a lot of different situations, and sometimes you can't

1068
00:51:03,760 --> 00:51:06,200
Speaker 4: do a hell of a lot right there. Now, I

1069
00:51:06,239 --> 00:51:08,239
Speaker 4: think some things are gonna help us, and I think

1070
00:51:08,280 --> 00:51:11,560
Speaker 4: the pass rush is sustainable. And the reason I say that,

1071
00:51:11,600 --> 00:51:14,360
Speaker 4: I think when we go to Kansas City, we're gonna

1072
00:51:14,440 --> 00:51:16,719
Speaker 4: end up, all things being right, we're gonna end up

1073
00:51:16,760 --> 00:51:19,640
Speaker 4: with Ward, We're gonna end up with Sauce, and we're

1074
00:51:19,640 --> 00:51:22,040
Speaker 4: gonna end up with Kenny at corner and two good safeties.

1075
00:51:22,160 --> 00:51:25,560
Speaker 4: We're gonna end up with a shutdown secondary that can

1076
00:51:25,600 --> 00:51:28,400
Speaker 4: play a ton of man and that can buy some time.

1077
00:51:29,200 --> 00:51:31,680
Speaker 4: I think the other thing is, you know, I think

1078
00:51:31,680 --> 00:51:35,279
Speaker 4: we're coming up with a better combination. You know, you

1079
00:51:35,320 --> 00:51:37,560
Speaker 4: get a lot too up that one edge, pay turn

1080
00:51:37,600 --> 00:51:39,960
Speaker 4: it loose on the other edge, and then you're playing

1081
00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:43,760
Speaker 4: with Addie and JT inside, and I like those two guys.

1082
00:51:43,800 --> 00:51:46,400
Speaker 4: I think those guys are really improving. You watch them

1083
00:51:46,480 --> 00:51:50,680
Speaker 4: run the stunt, and I think JT is really effective

1084
00:51:50,960 --> 00:51:54,600
Speaker 4: inside much more than outside right now. And the other

1085
00:51:54,680 --> 00:51:56,759
Speaker 4: thing that's really important. I used to tell my guys

1086
00:51:56,800 --> 00:51:59,440
Speaker 4: all the time, if you get me to third and seven,

1087
00:51:59,600 --> 00:52:02,640
Speaker 4: meaning you play really good on first down, like Joe's

1088
00:52:02,680 --> 00:52:05,279
Speaker 4: talking about, you get me to third and seven, I

1089
00:52:05,400 --> 00:52:07,799
Speaker 4: will get you off the field with scheme. And Lou

1090
00:52:07,880 --> 00:52:12,279
Speaker 4: did that yesterday. He was really creative. He had everybody up.

1091
00:52:12,320 --> 00:52:14,840
Speaker 4: He was playing that eight man up. You know, the

1092
00:52:14,880 --> 00:52:17,880
Speaker 4: first time he blitzes, he gets a strip sack with

1093
00:52:18,040 --> 00:52:20,120
Speaker 4: buying him, and then a lot of the game it's

1094
00:52:20,160 --> 00:52:24,640
Speaker 4: blitz one, it's dropped, it's bluff and schematically he shout

1095
00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:27,440
Speaker 4: him out. I mean they were zero for eight on

1096
00:52:27,600 --> 00:52:29,680
Speaker 4: third down. Matter of fact, one of the most interesting

1097
00:52:29,719 --> 00:52:32,040
Speaker 4: things at the end of three quarters, neither team had

1098
00:52:32,080 --> 00:52:35,600
Speaker 4: made a third down conversion. That is unbelievable. But at

1099
00:52:35,600 --> 00:52:38,840
Speaker 4: the end of the day, they were zero for eight

1100
00:52:39,080 --> 00:52:42,719
Speaker 4: on third down, including the overtime that stopped him. And

1101
00:52:43,040 --> 00:52:46,000
Speaker 4: to me, what that shows you is, if we can

1102
00:52:46,040 --> 00:52:49,319
Speaker 4: get that tight secondary, you can be a lot more

1103
00:52:49,400 --> 00:52:51,960
Speaker 4: creative in what I call the known down, which is

1104
00:52:52,040 --> 00:52:55,160
Speaker 4: third and seven plus you create that for lou I

1105
00:52:55,200 --> 00:52:57,040
Speaker 4: guarantee you he's going to get you off the field.

1106
00:52:57,120 --> 00:52:59,279
Speaker 1: All right, it's the mailbag segment right there with Rick

1107
00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:02,520
Speaker 1: Venturi and right part of Colts Round Table Live Tonight.

1131
00:54:09,360 --> 00:54:11,000
Speaker 1: we always kind of like to take a look at

1132
00:54:11,000 --> 00:54:14,360
Speaker 1: the upcoming opponent and also put a final bow and

1133
00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:17,319
Speaker 1: finishing touch on the game that just wrapped up. But

1134
00:54:17,440 --> 00:54:20,359
Speaker 1: with this being the bye week here, Joe, I'm gonna

1135
00:54:20,360 --> 00:54:22,680
Speaker 1: start first with you give me your plans first for

1136
00:54:22,719 --> 00:54:25,080
Speaker 1: the week with no Colts football. What are you doing

1137
00:54:25,080 --> 00:54:28,840
Speaker 1: this weekend? And secondly, tell me the most enjoyable parts

1138
00:54:28,920 --> 00:54:31,759
Speaker 1: for you so far of this cult season after an

1139
00:54:31,800 --> 00:54:34,640
Speaker 1: eight and two start after the first ten games.

1140
00:54:34,600 --> 00:54:37,880
Speaker 7: Yeah for me. We'll shift in basketball here with the kids,

1141
00:54:37,880 --> 00:54:41,480
Speaker 7: so their football season's over and so getting on the hardwood.

1142
00:54:41,520 --> 00:54:43,600
Speaker 7: And you know, the first day a high school practice

1143
00:54:43,600 --> 00:54:46,800
Speaker 7: starts tonight, so it's fitting. The snow's on the ground

1144
00:54:46,880 --> 00:54:49,919
Speaker 7: and you got some hints of winter here, so it'll

1145
00:54:49,960 --> 00:54:51,919
Speaker 7: be some hoop season for us at the Rights House.

1146
00:54:51,920 --> 00:54:54,359
Speaker 7: But for me, Matt, to think about this team, you're

1147
00:54:54,400 --> 00:54:56,600
Speaker 7: the number one seed in the AFC if it ended

1148
00:54:56,680 --> 00:54:59,640
Speaker 7: right now going into the bye week, which is awesome.

1149
00:55:00,040 --> 00:55:02,960
Speaker 7: You've put yourself in a position to have a really

1150
00:55:03,000 --> 00:55:05,920
Speaker 7: special season. But that's my message is let's not be

1151
00:55:06,000 --> 00:55:08,440
Speaker 7: satisfied with being eight and two. Let's really look hard

1152
00:55:08,440 --> 00:55:11,120
Speaker 7: at ourselves. Get back in the building Monday. You've got

1153
00:55:11,120 --> 00:55:13,640
Speaker 7: a great opponent coming up in Kansas City, and you've

1154
00:55:13,680 --> 00:55:15,920
Speaker 7: got the chance to go on the road against a

1155
00:55:15,960 --> 00:55:18,440
Speaker 7: team that everybody's expecting. Why not then go back to

1156
00:55:18,480 --> 00:55:21,120
Speaker 7: the Super Bowl and really make another statement. So that's

1157
00:55:21,160 --> 00:55:24,680
Speaker 7: awful exciting. But coach, I know the Chiefs record isn't great,

1158
00:55:24,719 --> 00:55:27,279
Speaker 7: but they've been playing much better as of late. How

1159
00:55:27,320 --> 00:55:29,160
Speaker 7: tough a game is that going to be? And what's

1160
00:55:29,200 --> 00:55:30,479
Speaker 7: your early scout on KC?

1161
00:55:31,120 --> 00:55:33,719
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, I'm I'm with you. The eight and two,

1162
00:55:33,880 --> 00:55:35,920
Speaker 4: I mean, it's a it's a great time. You know,

1163
00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:38,960
Speaker 4: I go back to watching every single practice back at

1164
00:55:38,960 --> 00:55:42,080
Speaker 4: Grant Park, Matt when we when we started with very

1165
00:55:42,239 --> 00:55:45,520
Speaker 4: very you know, very not very great expectations, to be

1166
00:55:45,560 --> 00:55:48,080
Speaker 4: honest with you, we were hoping to be better, but

1167
00:55:48,120 --> 00:55:51,160
Speaker 4: certainly not in this position. So you know, there's a

1168
00:55:51,200 --> 00:55:53,759
Speaker 4: part of us that savors it, and then there's a

1169
00:55:53,800 --> 00:55:56,080
Speaker 4: part of it that has to fix and to look

1170
00:55:56,120 --> 00:55:58,520
Speaker 4: for the prize, to be honest with you and to me,

1171
00:55:58,760 --> 00:56:01,240
Speaker 4: in two weeks we played the most most dangerous team

1172
00:56:01,680 --> 00:56:04,840
Speaker 4: in the National Football League, certainly in the AFC, you know,

1173
00:56:04,920 --> 00:56:08,120
Speaker 4: the best coach in the league, the most dynamic player

1174
00:56:08,120 --> 00:56:10,640
Speaker 4: at quarterback that I've ever seen in all my years,

1175
00:56:11,360 --> 00:56:15,280
Speaker 4: and a defensive coordinator who is creative and will attack

1176
00:56:15,360 --> 00:56:18,360
Speaker 4: you every possible way. So you know, there's no question

1177
00:56:18,440 --> 00:56:22,439
Speaker 4: about it. Savor, fix and get ready for the run.

1178
00:56:22,600 --> 00:56:24,799
Speaker 1: There you go. That's the to do list right there

1179
00:56:24,840 --> 00:56:27,000
Speaker 1: from Rick Van Terry. Now that the Colts are on

1180
00:56:27,040 --> 00:56:30,439
