1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:04,200 Speaker 1: What's up, Mike? How you doing. I'm good? How are you? Mike? Good? Good? 2 00:00:04,920 --> 00:00:07,240 Speaker 2: How threatening are the Colts in terms of their ability 3 00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:09,119 Speaker 2: to create explosive plays? 4 00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:13,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean just watching a healthy bit of it. 5 00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:15,280 Speaker 3: You know. 6 00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:18,599 Speaker 4: Minshew back there can really extend plays. He gets the 7 00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:20,759 Speaker 4: ball out of his hands quickly, so it's is the 8 00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:24,480 Speaker 4: ball coming out quick is the play extending? And then 9 00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:27,160 Speaker 4: he's got a little bit of that gun slinger where 10 00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:29,920 Speaker 4: you know he could just let that ball fly down 11 00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:34,320 Speaker 4: the field, you know. So he has his own challenges 12 00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:37,159 Speaker 4: as the quarterback, the captain of the ship. And then 13 00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:40,280 Speaker 4: you have you know Pittman at receiver, you know, a 14 00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:43,159 Speaker 4: go to guy, a big physical guy. You know, you 15 00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:44,800 Speaker 4: could see him at the top of the route just 16 00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:47,080 Speaker 4: pushing off, you know, out physical and. 17 00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:50,800 Speaker 1: You know that DV that's covering him. 18 00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:54,160 Speaker 4: He does a really good job of that big body guy, 19 00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:57,640 Speaker 4: similar to you know Aj Brown in the way that 20 00:00:57,960 --> 00:00:59,760 Speaker 4: Philly you know, because this is a little bit of 21 00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:03,000 Speaker 4: a Philly comparison, like how they kind of use him 22 00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:06,800 Speaker 4: in a sense, you know, on a slant. 23 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:08,399 Speaker 1: You know that guy can catch the ball. You got 24 00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 1: to do is put it on his body. 25 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:11,800 Speaker 4: You know, big guy there, and then you got a 26 00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:16,040 Speaker 4: Pierce on the other side, who's a very good vertical threat. 27 00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:18,479 Speaker 4: You know when you watch, you know a team you're 28 00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:20,880 Speaker 4: trying to get ready for him, you go, well, who's 29 00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 4: the vertical threat down the field? Like, he's definitely that guy, 30 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:28,200 Speaker 4: you know, especially isolated on the backside. And then downs 31 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:30,759 Speaker 4: man the rookie comes in and plays as well. 32 00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:32,200 Speaker 1: You know, it's it's impressive. 33 00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:34,640 Speaker 4: You know, he does does a lot of good things 34 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:39,679 Speaker 4: out there, extremely explosive, quick twitch stuff. So you know, 35 00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:41,880 Speaker 4: it's a good challenge for us, good opportunity, just like 36 00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:43,960 Speaker 4: it is every week. Every team that we play has 37 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:47,640 Speaker 4: great receivers, so you know this is no different. I'm 38 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 4: always excited for the opportunity to get out there and 39 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 4: get after a new group. 40 00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:55,720 Speaker 2: And Mike, just on your end, I would imagine the 41 00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 2: number of big plays that the defense has given up, 42 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:01,200 Speaker 2: and I guess I'll define them over twenty yards or 43 00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 2: more the last two games, probably higher than you would 44 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:07,520 Speaker 2: would like them to be. What is your coaching point 45 00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:09,760 Speaker 2: to your guys to try to bring that number down? 46 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 2: Is there some you know, what do you what are 47 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:14,399 Speaker 2: you locking in on to relay to them? 48 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:16,800 Speaker 1: Well, there's a lot of different factors. 49 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:22,560 Speaker 4: You know, there's what's the situation you know, is down 50 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:26,359 Speaker 4: in distance field position, you know, the splits of the receivers, 51 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 4: things that we talked about all week. It really is 52 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:31,840 Speaker 4: going to come down to awareness, general awareness and doing 53 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 4: our jobs and making sure that everybody across the board 54 00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:39,800 Speaker 4: is doing their job and that that's the most important 55 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:42,080 Speaker 4: thing when it comes to those big plays. You know, 56 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:45,520 Speaker 4: rarely is it just you know, one guy messing up 57 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:48,120 Speaker 4: the play. You know, sometimes it is, but for the 58 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:50,919 Speaker 4: most part, like there's multiple things wrong on the play. 59 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 4: When you have twenty plus yard games. 60 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 1: We're gonna go to a Doug kaitefeld by Taylor. Go ahead, Doug, 61 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:01,360 Speaker 1: because of gone, what's up? 62 00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:01,640 Speaker 5: Done? 63 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:03,959 Speaker 1: Hey you been man? I'm doing all right. 64 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 6: We've seen Jonathan Jones playing a lot outside again this season. 65 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:10,120 Speaker 1: Uh, just curious. 66 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 6: Obviously guys move around a lot, but is there any 67 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:16,079 Speaker 6: hesitancy to move back to this slat or why hasn't 68 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:18,520 Speaker 6: been Why hasn't he been playing more than the slot 69 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 6: this year? 70 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 4: So John has you know, he's done with the team's 71 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 4: ass and where where we've needed him the past couple 72 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 4: of weeks has been on the perimeter. 73 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 1: He's done a good job there. 74 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,560 Speaker 4: You know, he's one of the toughest guys you know, 75 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:35,120 Speaker 4: on the team, and I need that toughness, you know, 76 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 4: on the perimeter for him. And you know, he's just 77 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,520 Speaker 4: doing what he's told. You know, obviously, he's a he's 78 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 4: a great soldier. He'll do, you know, whatever's needed. And look, 79 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 4: I'm I'm not trying to do anything other than put 80 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 4: all these guys in the right spots for this team 81 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 4: to succeed. I'm not trying to like, you know, get 82 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 4: cute with like, oh this guy here, this guy there. 83 00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 4: The guys that are out there playing, they're playing the 84 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 4: times that they play right for the best success of 85 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 4: the team. 86 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 1: And that's what I feel. 87 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 4: Like we're doing right now to make things make the 88 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:10,240 Speaker 4: game go the way we wanted to go. 89 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:13,840 Speaker 6: I just also wanted to get your perspective on a 90 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 6: moment that we saw on the sideline last week, where 91 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 6: usually we see the defensive reserves kind of standing close 92 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 6: to the sideline, we saw Jack Jones sitting on the 93 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:24,440 Speaker 6: bench I think it was next to Chad Violand at 94 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:27,159 Speaker 6: the time, with a towel over his neck. We're not 95 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 6: used to seeing that from a defensive player during the end, 96 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 6: that type of situation. So I'm just curious from your 97 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:33,200 Speaker 6: perspective what was going on there. 98 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,039 Speaker 4: Yeah, so you may know or you may not know. 99 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 4: I'm up in the box, so I didn't really see that. 100 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:41,160 Speaker 4: You know, you could ask Jack about that, but you know, 101 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:43,320 Speaker 4: I would say that would be an outlier. I've never 102 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 4: seen Jack really, you know, on the bench when the 103 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:49,600 Speaker 4: defense was up, so it must have been something going 104 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 4: on for a quick second. 105 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 1: But I'm not going to speak on it. 106 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:56,599 Speaker 4: He could talk about it, you know, I wouldn't blow 107 00:04:56,600 --> 00:05:01,040 Speaker 4: it out of proportion. You know, it's probably just one 108 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:04,320 Speaker 4: thing that you know happened, so it's not I wouldn't 109 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 4: if it was a consistent thing, would not be concerned yet. 110 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 4: But it's not a consistent thing, so I'm not. I 111 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 4: wouldn't really hang my hat on that one. That's not 112 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 4: the guy that I know. 113 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:17,159 Speaker 1: So thank you. Yeah, I think we're all. 114 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 4: I'm gonna have time three more, so I'm gonna go with. 115 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:22,880 Speaker 1: Taylor and Nick and then I go ahead, three more questions. 116 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:26,560 Speaker 1: There we go. Fantastic. Thank you so much for your time. 117 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 1: I appreciate it. I was just wondering, Bro doing well. 118 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 1: Thank you. 119 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:34,520 Speaker 3: I was wondering on the touchdown a dots and it 120 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:36,679 Speaker 3: look like you guys wan cover zero when Miles Bryant 121 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 3: last second kind of went down to play press, I 122 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:41,480 Speaker 3: was wondering if you could do that again. Was there 123 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 3: something you maybe wanted to do differently in that position 124 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:45,840 Speaker 3: or was it just you know, all out blitz the 125 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 3: rush doesn't get home. Sometimes the other team just doesn't 126 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 3: make a play. And as well, the past two weeks, 127 00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:52,120 Speaker 3: it seems like there's been a mix of you know, 128 00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:54,279 Speaker 3: things you can maybe do better, but also the other 129 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,800 Speaker 3: team making plays because these NFL offenses, So how do 130 00:05:57,880 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 3: you kind of balance out with your defense? 131 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 1: Was saying, Hey, sometimes the other guys. 132 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:03,200 Speaker 3: Make plays they get paid to and also, you know, 133 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 3: we need to be better. 134 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:08,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, first of all, Taylor, love your energy right now. 135 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 4: Fantastic, No, but yeah, talking about that play, Look, there 136 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:14,240 Speaker 4: was a lot of things wrong on that play, not 137 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 4: just one guy there. You know, he kind of saw 138 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,719 Speaker 4: something that we had talked about during the week that 139 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:23,360 Speaker 4: made him move up. And again, look like I trust 140 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 4: my players. They got a feeling on the field. You know, 141 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 4: it is what it is. You know, those plays happens 142 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 4: those those mistakes happen. You know, really there's more to 143 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:39,000 Speaker 4: that play than just what you guys see from the 144 00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 4: big picture, like the tych, like Miles moving up and 145 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 4: the touchdown going over the top, Like there's so much 146 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:49,200 Speaker 4: more to that play. That's an issue, you know that 147 00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:51,360 Speaker 4: we need to do a better job. And I was 148 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 4: talking to Mic about this earlier.

Side j 166 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 7: C didn't play for the first couple series. Was that 167 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 7: expected coming into the game.
