13
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:45,360

14
00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:46,920
Speaker 1: of hearing me, you know, because he was the only

15
00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:49,239
Speaker 1: person who was there with me, and my husband's the

16
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:51,600
Speaker 1: only one I'm talking to. So he's just like, strike

Speaker 1: all yeah, exactly, like please he took I noticed he

18
00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:56,080

19
00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:57,600
Speaker 1: go out school. It's like I'm gonna take a nap,

20
00:00:57,600 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 1: and I'm like, oh god, I'm wearing him out because

00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:02,720
Speaker 1: I'm just kind instantly like right, you know, conversing with

22
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:05,120
Speaker 1: only him and don't like, don't you have a podcast

23
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:08,200
Speaker 1: or something you've listened to? Now down where you were,

24
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:09,959
Speaker 1: because you were in Florida, lat Yes, for those that

25
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:12,920
Speaker 1: don't know, yeh, did you have any remnants of the hurricane?

26
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:15,399
Speaker 1: Are you good there? No, we were very fortunate. We were,

27
00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:17,600
Speaker 1: We were good. We're right around the Sara Sota area,

28
00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:19,960
Speaker 1: so it was. It was pretty well spared from all

29
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:21,759
Speaker 1: of the hurricane damage. Most of it was a bit

30
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:24,039
Speaker 1: further south, so it was it was really good. But

31
00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:26,960
Speaker 1: you know, oddly enough, you know how like even when

32
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:28,840
Speaker 1: you're traveling, do you ever have this were like, you're

33
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 1: you're getting away from work, yet work still finds its

34
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:35,679
Speaker 1: way back to you leaving not even that even prior

35
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:39,040
Speaker 1: to your phone call. Walking through the airport, are flights

36
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:41,319
Speaker 1: leaving at five forty five, So I'm probably walking through

37
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:45,520
Speaker 1: about five maybe five fifteen before we're boarding, and who

38
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:47,800
Speaker 1: do I see, like five gates down from me but

39
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 1: Stefan Gilmour and his wife and kids. And he looks

40
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:52,480
Speaker 1: at me. I'm like, yeah, thought you were going to

41
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 1: be away from me for a week, weren't you? And

42
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:56,280
Speaker 1: I was like where are you guys going? I'm going there,

43
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:58,480
Speaker 1: you know. So they were they were going to Miami

44
00:01:58,520 --> 00:01:59,760
Speaker 1: for a couple of days. So it was great because

45
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 1: I got to see stuff on and Gabby and the

46
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:02,560
Speaker 1: kids and chat with him. But it was just one

47
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,040
Speaker 1: of It was like such a funny occurrence because a

48
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 1: few years ago, coming back from the bye week, I

49
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:09,239
Speaker 1: was on the same flight as Marlon Mack because he's

50
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:12,359
Speaker 1: from Sarah Soda, so they've gone down there, so inevitably

51
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:15,640
Speaker 1: I wind up running into one of our colts player.

52
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:17,120
Speaker 1: I'd like to take bets on who's going to be

53
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:20,960
Speaker 1: next year? Is this guy on the roster? Yet? That's

54
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:26,119
Speaker 1: a good sounds good segment there. But no, it was fantastic.

55
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:28,120
Speaker 1: It was great, super relaxing, but honestly, like it was

56
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:30,200
Speaker 1: one of those where I was ready to get back

57
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:32,120
Speaker 1: a little bit too, like four or five days away.

58
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:34,120
Speaker 1: I'm kind of britty to getting into routine, and Dan's

59
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:37,040
Speaker 1: tired of hearing me talk. Oh it's crazy. I mean

60
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 1: I shut the computer down at like three o'clock on Wednesday.

61
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:43,320
Speaker 1: It didn't pick it back up until Sunday night. It wonderful.

62
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 1: I started to get twitchy. I felt like I should

63
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 1: be doing so much, but it's like there's no game

64
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,120
Speaker 1: and this is really the only part of the NFL

65
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,920
Speaker 1: schedule where you you're afforded a chance to kind of

66
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:56,600
Speaker 1: decompress a little bit. And Casey, I really didn't, honestly

67
00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:59,240
Speaker 1: watch a lot of football. I didn't either. On Sunday, Yeah,

68
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 1: I didn't. I didn't. I watched UM, I watched Thursday

69
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,760
Speaker 1: Night football. I watched Baker Mayfield do what he did

70
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:07,560
Speaker 1: with the Rams, which bizarre. I mean to think about

71
00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:10,239
Speaker 1: Josh McDaniels. He's got two losses, one to an interim

72
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 1: head coach and Jeff Saturday the week of which is interesting,

73
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 1: and then a quarterback who got there forty eight hours before.

74
00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 1: So if that says anything about the Raiders, which was crazy,

75
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 1: all Lara's got something. I've got something. So Casey's taken

76
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 1: shots already. We're like three minutes into this, Okay, I'm

77
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:27,360
Speaker 1: going back to a tweet that I saw. This was

78
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 1: on Thursday from Bridget Condon with NFL Network, who does

79
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 1: a fantastic job, and our tweet was I can't get

80
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:38,880
Speaker 1: over the fact that the Rams essentially amazon primed themselves

81
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 1: a quarterback that's the truth Thursday night football, nothing more

82
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:51,600
Speaker 1: on brand, no and no assembly required it right. I

83
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 1: just thought that was just the most perfect tweet. That's amazing. Yeah,

84
00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 1: I'm with you, man. I didn't watch much football. We

85
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,960
Speaker 1: had my three year old's birthday, so his birthday was

86
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:03,720
Speaker 1: actually on Thursday, so it was great. We had the

87
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:06,760
Speaker 1: day off, so we did like this indoor theme park

88
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:09,119
Speaker 1: kind of thing. It's called Smiley's here and didn't see

89
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,400
Speaker 1: I didn't go to Florida like Lara, So I was

90
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 1: ready to get back to the office because it was

91
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,160
Speaker 1: a lot of just you know, family time. It's like,

92
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:19,159
Speaker 1: you know, it was also crappy weather. My husband was like,

93
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:23,520
Speaker 1: I can't wait to stop listening to her. No. I

94
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 1: mean it was like rain and overcast and drizzle forty

95
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,360
Speaker 1: two degrees every day. I mean, I think today is

96
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:33,440
Speaker 1: like the first day the sun's exact day. Yeah. How

97
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:35,800

Speaker 1: of a lot, just a lot of catching up to do,

99
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:39,599
Speaker 1: you know, a lot of housework, errands, and you know,

100
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:43,640
Speaker 1: we did have my daughter's birthday is in two weeks,

101
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:45,880
Speaker 1: but past weekend was the only weekend where we could

102
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:47,920
Speaker 1: actually plan it and do it, so we went ahead

103
00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:49,880
Speaker 1: and got it out of the way. So she had

104
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:51,800
Speaker 1: a good time with all of her friends that came over.

105
00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:54,760

Speaker 1: So she's going to join us in a little bit.

131
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:16,159
Speaker 1: So casey Colts arrested, they're off the by heading into

132
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 1: week number fifteen right now, they currently sit fourteenth in

133
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:23,640
Speaker 1: the AFC playoff picture, and unfortunately that's sixteen team, so

134
00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 1: fourteen out of sixteen, four eight and one, they've dropped

135
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:29,360
Speaker 1: three in a row. Before we get into the Colts,

136
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,640
Speaker 1: let's talk about t Y Hilton joining the Cowboys. Signed

137
00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 1: a free agent deal in Dallas earlier this week, case

138
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:40,960
Speaker 1: joining that wide receiver corpse Ceedee Lamb, Michael Gallup, Noah Brown.

139
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:44,120
Speaker 1: How does t Y Hilton fit in with the Cowboys?

140
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:47,440
Speaker 1: How surprised were you with that move? Ty joining a

141
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:49,560
Speaker 1: team with four games to play in the regular season,

142
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:53,080
Speaker 1: having not spent time in a locker room this year

143
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:55,359
Speaker 1: or spent time with a team in the offseason workout

144
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,400
Speaker 1: program and training camp. I mean, I was surprised, just

145
00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 1: because all the chatter was Odell Beckham. It seemed like

146
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:04,839
Speaker 1: it was, you know, he's gonna pick between the Cowboys

147
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:07,520
Speaker 1: and the Giants, and then there was speculation on where

148
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:08,880
Speaker 1: his knee was, all this stuff, and then all of

149
00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:10,680
Speaker 1: a sudden it was, Hey, the Cowboys are signing t

150
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:13,600
Speaker 1: Y Hilton. And I think there was some conversation during

151
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 1: the offseason and training camp between t Y and Dallas

152
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:19,120
Speaker 1: and for t why this is perfect. He was able

153
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 1: to watch his sons high school football at Zionsville. Football

154
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:25,000
Speaker 1: is over and now he gets to go play. It's

155
00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,800
Speaker 1: not a full season, so he's been He's had plenty

156
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:30,600
Speaker 1: of time to get rest up and prepared. And for

157
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,640
Speaker 1: t Y, I mean, everybody in this room right here,

158
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 1: we love t Y. I mean that smile seeing him

159
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:38,640
Speaker 1: sign that contract. It almost didn't matter who he was

160
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,680
Speaker 1: signing with because you saw that t Y smile. And

161
00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 1: for him to have the opportunity, I don't know where

162
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,400
Speaker 1: the Cowboys are going to end up when it comes

163
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:49,040
Speaker 1: to playoff time, but to have an opportunity to compete

164
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 1: for a championship, that's when she went for t Y.

165
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:54,080
Speaker 1: They're in the NFC, so what doesn't matter as far

166
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,800
Speaker 1: as going to a rival for the Colts or anything.

167
00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:59,200
Speaker 1: I think this is just this is a great situation

168
00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:01,840
Speaker 1: for both parties. For t Y, he's probably not going

169
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 1: to be asked to do too much because Ceedee Lamb

170
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 1: is clearly the guy. They've got other weapons with Michael

171
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:09,600
Speaker 1: Gallup coming back. We saw him two touchdowns in the

172
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:12,280
Speaker 1: game against the Colts. I think Noah Brown has definitely,

173
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:14,280
Speaker 1: you know, he kind of peaked early in the season,

174
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:18,880
Speaker 1: has kind of been playing on a little downward. That's

175
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:21,040
Speaker 1: where I think the Noah Brown role he fits really

176
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 1: really well. So I don't know if we'll see him

177
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:26,520
Speaker 1: this weekend or next weekend, but definitely as they make

178
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:28,280
Speaker 1: their push for the playoffs, it's going to be different

179
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:29,880
Speaker 1: to see. And I don't know what numbers he gonna

180
00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,320
Speaker 1: wear because think Michael Gallup wears thirteen, so that'll be

181
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:34,840
Speaker 1: interesting to see what number two why will be wearing

182
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:40,040
Speaker 1: in Dallas. I am so thrilled for Ty because through

183
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:44,160
Speaker 1: all he battled through and had not had injuries over

184
00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:46,160
Speaker 1: the majority of the early part of the season and

185
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:49,240
Speaker 1: then the last few years here in Indianapolis, what he

186
00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:52,160
Speaker 1: endured from a personal standpoint, and then also just all

187
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:55,600
Speaker 1: of the quarterback change that he had to endure. This

188
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 1: is such a great opportunity because he is a guy

189
00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 1: who certainly has earned an opportunity to be on a contender,

190
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:04,800
Speaker 1: and for him to go to Dallas is so exciting.

191
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:07,640
Speaker 1: He joins a couple of former cults you know down

192
00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:09,800
Speaker 1: there that they have of course, when you think about

193
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:13,000
Speaker 1: you know, Matt Overton and Malik Hooker and Malik Jefferson

194
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:14,800
Speaker 1: as well now on that team, So a couple of

195
00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:17,319
Speaker 1: guys down there, familiar faces, and you know, I think

196
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:20,120
Speaker 1: it's exciting for him to be able to have an opportunity,

197
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:24,240
Speaker 1: opportunity to be with a dynamic quarterback like Deck Prescott.

198
00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:27,520
Speaker 1: And one of the things that edward Er said about

199
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:30,800
Speaker 1: t Y when he was asking to people around the

200
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:33,679
Speaker 1: league is, you know, although people have noted, oh, his

201
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:35,440
Speaker 1: his speed isn't what it used to be, and that

202
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:37,600
Speaker 1: was a kind of you know t Y signature that

203
00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:40,840
Speaker 1: you know, very elusive speed down the field, but everyone

204
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:44,240
Speaker 1: said he's instinctive, So they were saying, despite he maybe

205
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:46,600
Speaker 1: not having the speed, he's very capable because of his

206
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:50,040
Speaker 1: intelligence and high level instinct at that position. So that's

207
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:51,840
Speaker 1: going to be something that he can draw upon to

208
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:54,600
Speaker 1: come in and be an immediate contributor in you know,

209
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,960
Speaker 1: whether that's this week or next week. But I'd actually

210
00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:01,560
Speaker 1: traded messages with Ty about two weeks ago. I knew

211
00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:04,960
Speaker 1: that there were a few different teams that had that

212
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:08,160
Speaker 1: had expressed interest in, you know, in him, and I

213
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:10,800
Speaker 1: my understanding not haven't heard this directly from t Y,

214
00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:12,680
Speaker 1: but hearing from other sources. I believe the New York

215
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:14,880
Speaker 1: Giants would have been another one of them, just kind

216
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,440
Speaker 1: of gathering from what maybe some of the Beat reporters

217
00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:19,560
Speaker 1: had been saying. So I'm also like, oh, thank god

218
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:21,760
Speaker 1: he went to a team that we already played and

219
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:24,800
Speaker 1: don't have to go up again. Yea again, but ecstatic

220
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:26,840
Speaker 1: for him. We're gonna be really exciting. And yeah, like

221
00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 1: you mentioned, like everyone saw him going to his son's

222
00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:31,080
Speaker 1: high school games, getting to kind of be a dad

223
00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:33,640
Speaker 1: and live life. And he's stayed in shape, he stayed

224
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:36,280
Speaker 1: in form, always wanting you know this opportunity to go

225
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:38,960
Speaker 1: in and you know, potentially be part of something down

226
00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 1: the stretch. And certainly the Cowboys are one of those

227
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:43,920
Speaker 1: who are in the conversation for a favorite, not just

228
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,360
Speaker 1: among the NFC, but among the league in general. Yeah,

229
00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:50,079
Speaker 1: I think the quarterback nugget that you had Lair, I

230
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:52,120
Speaker 1: think that spot on, and I think he's really gonna

231
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:56,320
Speaker 1: benefit from a mobile quarterback that can extend plays. That

232
00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:58,680
Speaker 1: was always when t Y Hilton was at his best,

233
00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:01,920
Speaker 1: he had time to kind of outsmart the defense and

234
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,480
Speaker 1: find those windows down the field. And I never really

235
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:08,880
Speaker 1: thought that that t Y, despite his injuries, lost much

236
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:14,400
Speaker 1: speed and intuitiveness. I mean, he missed sixteen games over

237
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:17,120
Speaker 1: four years with the disc problem and the quad and

238
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:20,280
Speaker 1: the concussion, But I just didn't think those things really

239
00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:23,839
Speaker 1: slowed him down much more than just getting older and

240
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:27,239
Speaker 1: getting up there in terms of, uh, you know, longevity

241
00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:29,080
Speaker 1: in the NFL. But you know, when he was on

242
00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:33,960
Speaker 1: the field, I still I still thought, yeah, he was productive,

243
00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:37,320
Speaker 1: and I just really think that his lack of production

244
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:41,440
Speaker 1: numbers wise, he's a victim of so many quarterbacks around

245
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:43,800
Speaker 1: him changing and trying to get that synergy. I mean,

246
00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:48,000
Speaker 1: obviously he'll never have as much chemistry and synergy as

247
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:50,040
Speaker 1: he did with Andrew Luck, But I think he will

248
00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:53,640
Speaker 1: benefit from playing with a guy like Dak Prescott and

249
00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:56,240
Speaker 1: that running game should open up some opportunities for him

250
00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:58,560
Speaker 1: in the passing game. So Casey, I think he's got

251
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,480
Speaker 1: a good chance of being that Noah Brown role, if

252
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:03,520
Speaker 1: you will, three to four catches a game for about

253
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:06,120
Speaker 1: thirty to forty yards, And I think that's one of

254
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:07,719
Speaker 1: the things that we have kind of talked about here

255
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:08,880
Speaker 1: is that he's not going to be asked to do

256
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:11,280
Speaker 1: too much. You know. That's the best thing. He's going

257
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,640
Speaker 1: to a As Lara said, this is a team that

258
00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:17,120
Speaker 1: is thought of to be a favorite in all of

259
00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:19,880
Speaker 1: the league to win a Super Bowl. So he's going

260
00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 1: into a perfect situation where you kind of ease into

261
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:24,200
Speaker 1: it as well. He doesn't have to hit the ground

262
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:26,880
Speaker 1: running this weekend, and if he doesn't catch eight catches

263
00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:29,480
Speaker 1: for whatever, it's a bust. Like he can ease into this,

264
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:32,479
Speaker 1: So I'm really happy for t Y. I exchange messages

265
00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:35,760
Speaker 1: with Jane Slater, who covers the Cowboys for NFL Network,

266
00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:38,000
Speaker 1: and I've done her podcast the week before we played

267
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:39,640
Speaker 1: the Cowboys, and I was just telling her a little

268
00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:41,880
Speaker 1: bit about what they're getting, you know in a t

269
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:43,520
Speaker 1: Y Hilton, and you know it was kind of telling

270
00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:45,600
Speaker 1: her about, you know, the type of locker room guy

271
00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:48,040
Speaker 1: that he is. I mean, he'll be immediately beloved you

272
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,720
Speaker 1: think about I know, the guys. As much rapport as

273
00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:52,840
Speaker 1: they have built among this group of receivers they have,

274
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 1: they really miss t Y is indicated by the first

275
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:58,120
Speaker 1: touchdown Michael Pittman scored this year when the end zone

276
00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:00,080
Speaker 1: and threw up you know, the t Y omash. But

277
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:04,200
Speaker 1: I told Jane, I said, the most infectious laugh and

278
00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:07,640
Speaker 1: it will echo the halls, I promise you. So yeah,

279
00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:12,959
Speaker 1: any anything I said, every person will immediately be drawn

280
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:16,079
Speaker 1: to t Y because of not only the dynamic playmaker

281
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:18,000
Speaker 1: that he is and the potential that he can add,

282
00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:20,760
Speaker 1: what he can bring, the element he can add to

283
00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:24,400
Speaker 1: an offense, but also just because he's such a fun personality.

284
00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:26,200
Speaker 1: It's gonna be exciting to watch moving for I mean,

285
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,880
Speaker 1: he's still like my header on my Twitter. It's like

286
00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:32,000
Speaker 1: from one of our interviews that he's just he's just

287
00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:34,400
Speaker 1: taking that up. Also, can't wait to see him when

288
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:35,880
Speaker 1: he comes back, because that guy's going in the Ring

289
00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:38,480
Speaker 1: of honor, somebody's getting ring, I mean, first ballot, if

290
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:41,200
Speaker 1: there is such a thing. There are a lot of

291
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:44,600
Speaker 1: deserving guys of past, certainly, you know, you think about

292
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:47,559
Speaker 1: you know, Adam Vinataria and being Dallas Clark. You know,

293
00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:49,400
Speaker 1: there are a lot of names that you could certainly

294
00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:52,920
Speaker 1: put in there to talk about who have are more,

295
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:55,720
Speaker 1: you know, slightly further removed from their careers. But I

296
00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:59,000
Speaker 1: think immediately he goes up there, I mean every statish,

297
00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:01,160
Speaker 1: every time, as soon as he's done, I mean, that's

298
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:03,360
Speaker 1: the next year. I mean, I don't I don't know

299
00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 1: kind of how. I don't know what's the typical like

300
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:08,800
Speaker 1: waiting period, Like guys don't immediately typically go in. I

301
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:10,719
Speaker 1: feel like there's kind of like Reggie waited a few

302
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:13,079
Speaker 1: years before ye he went in, So I don't know

303
00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:15,640
Speaker 1: if it'll be immediate because there might be some elder

304
00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:18,120
Speaker 1: guys just head of him who've been waiting. I think

305
00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:21,080
Speaker 1: now it's different because there was I mean in Reggie's case,

306
00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:24,320
Speaker 1: there was you know, Yeah, there's a handful of guys

307
00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:26,800
Speaker 1: you can you can choose from with with Freeny and

308
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:31,120
Speaker 1: Mathis and he had and I think we're sort of

309
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:32,680
Speaker 1: at the end of that list is my point. I

310
00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:36,040
Speaker 1: totally interestand I think that maybe of the recent cults,

311
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:39,320
Speaker 1: maybe Vinitari would be the one who goes in prior

312
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:42,800
Speaker 1: to t Y. Yeah, potentially, depending on how long t

313
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:45,920
Speaker 1: By plays and what he shows, because whatever he does

314
00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:49,080
Speaker 1: in this final stretch for Dallas could lead to more

315
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:51,640
Speaker 1: for him in the future. But I would say he's

316
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:54,040
Speaker 1: one of those you you go in with pretty with

317
00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:56,200
Speaker 1: a with a sense of urgency to get him in

318
00:14:56,560 --> 00:15:00,240
Speaker 1: and deliver, and and also too to touch on such

319
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:04,360
Speaker 1: a special time of the franchise beyond that Manning era.

320
00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:08,240
Speaker 1: I mean, Ty was such a bridge to the current

321
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:11,120
Speaker 1: era that we are in now, and I think deserves

322
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:14,960
Speaker 1: acknowledgment for some really great teams that he was a

323
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 1: part of and some special things that he did for

324
00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:20,320
Speaker 1: this organization. Because in every receiving category, I mean, it's

325
00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:23,280
Speaker 1: Marvin Reggie t hy Hilton. I mean that is that

326
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:26,280
Speaker 1: is it, and so many, so many big moments. I

327
00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:28,880
Speaker 1: mean the Kansas City game and the playoffs that go

328
00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:31,480
Speaker 1: ahead touchdown, I mean that that's still the best pass

329
00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:34,880
Speaker 1: I've ever seen live in person, that bomb from Andrew

330
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:38,640
Speaker 1: Luck that just landed between two defenders from Kansas City.

331
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:41,680
Speaker 1: That covered like sixty five yards through the air and

332
00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:44,520
Speaker 1: that was the Colts go ahead touchdown. They were down

333
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:47,120
Speaker 1: twenty eight points in that game. Honest to god, I've

334
00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:50,160
Speaker 1: never heard Lucas Oil Stadium louder. And you're on the

335
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:53,480
Speaker 1: sideline one in that game, right, So, I mean Lucas

336
00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:55,600
Speaker 1: Lucas Oil has been open since two thousand and eight.

337
00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:58,800
Speaker 1: I think that is maybe the biggest moment in the

338
00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:02,120
Speaker 1: in the venue's history. But Casey, all the monster games

339
00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:05,880
Speaker 1: against Houston, all right, I mean, yeah, Dallas have loved

340
00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:07,960
Speaker 1: to have signed to Ty before they played the Texas.

341
00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:12,440
Speaker 1: Maybe that's what it was. Maybe that was what tiptom over.

342
00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:14,360
Speaker 1: You know what, Hey, if you'd have had me, we

343
00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:16,840
Speaker 1: wouldn't even have had a scare. Yeah, I'll go for

344
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:20,680
Speaker 1: two twenty and two touchdowns, right and still haunt J. J.

345
00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:23,480
Speaker 1: Watt over there on the sideline. I love it. Where's

346
00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:28,280
Speaker 1: Jonathan Joseph? All right? So, t Y Hilton, good on

347
00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:30,840
Speaker 1: you man, Good luck in Dallas and we're rooting for

348
00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:32,840
Speaker 1: you man, and hopefully it all works out there is

349
00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:35,560
Speaker 1: he uh is on a team now that I think

350
00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:37,720
Speaker 1: is headed for the playoffs and we'll see if they

351
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:39,560
Speaker 1: can make some noise in the month in January and

352
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:42,920
Speaker 1: the NFC side of the playoff Ledger Lara. You ready,

353
00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:46,080
Speaker 1: We're going down to your hometown here. We're going to

354
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:53,440
Speaker 1: fire it up. You love that song. We're going to

355
00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:56,960
Speaker 1: Churchill Downs, Lara. Now, is it Thanksgiving? That your family ever?

356
00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:03,280
Speaker 1: Good memory? Yeah? You're girl. Hit a couple of trifect this. Yeah,

357
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:06,679
Speaker 1: nicely done nicely. Yeah. As as I went into the

358
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:10,080
Speaker 1: double digits on the mint julip, I started getting more

359
00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:14,639
Speaker 1: and I consider that no coincidence. So I've told you

360
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:18,640
Speaker 1: both my story about working. Yeah, Kentucky was a beer

361
00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:22,760
Speaker 1: vendor and mint julip maker. I really don't enjoy the

362
00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:26,119
Speaker 1: mint julip because I tasted it, I smelled it, and

363
00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:30,000
Speaker 1: I felt it in my fingernails, on my skin and

364
00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:33,000
Speaker 1: my nostrils. I've told you what my my late grandmother,

365
00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:34,800
Speaker 1: what she would say about the mint julip. She was

366
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:37,199
Speaker 1: part of what established this family tradition which has been

367
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:42,280
Speaker 1: ongoing for I probably fifty years or so within my family.

368
00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:46,760
Speaker 1: The day after things getting tradition, her description was, the

369
00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:49,720
Speaker 1: first one you hate, the second one gets better by

370
00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:52,840
Speaker 1: the time you get to the third you don't care anymore. Wow,

371
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:59,199
Speaker 1: you just describe your feelings on me. You gotta go

372
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:01,280
Speaker 1: a little first time, you made them, you hate them,

373
00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:06,399
Speaker 1: third time. Whatever, Let's just freaking do this podcast. Geez,

374
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:12,480
Speaker 1: just get through. It could my favorite humans. Well here's

375
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:15,040
Speaker 1: what I'm going for. So if the NFL regular season

376
00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:18,119
Speaker 1: were a horse race, we would be heading down the

377
00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 1: stretch four games to play. Let's ride this, lets let's

378
00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:24,560
Speaker 1: ride this. Is the time of the year where Russell

379
00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:28,280
Speaker 1: Wilson and the intensity it jumps up another level. And

380
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:32,199
Speaker 1: obviously games take on even more importance and significance. So

381
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:35,080
Speaker 1: let's head down to Churchill Downs. Let's make some predictions.

382
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:37,320
Speaker 1: Let's make some parlays. Do I have the right verbiage

383
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:39,879
Speaker 1: there is parlay and horse racing the right way to

384
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:42,640
Speaker 1: describe that? Or should this be a trifecta? I think

385
00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:44,320
Speaker 1: what you would want to do as a parlay because

386
00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:47,399
Speaker 1: it's a couple of different categories. A trifecta would be

387
00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:51,160
Speaker 1: something all within one singular race. Right, you wouldn tell

388
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:54,280
Speaker 1: some to come in first, second, and third. In a parlay,

389
00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:58,520
Speaker 1: you can clearly we know who is oh, oh, like

390
00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:02,160
Speaker 1: you have any room to tell? Thanks A lot rounders.

391
00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:11,119
Speaker 1: Should I double down on this eleven case? All right?

392
00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:14,399
Speaker 1: So let's give me, okay, give me your three legged

393
00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:16,920
Speaker 1: Colts parlay to end the season, right, so you know what,

394
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:20,080
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with a not a great thing that

395
00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:23,959
Speaker 1: they're going to hit, and then two positive ones. All right.

396
00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:27,320
Speaker 1: So the Colts have committed a league leading third twenty

397
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:30,399
Speaker 1: six turnovers through thirteen games so far. Yes, so first one,

398
00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:33,000
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say they eclipse thirty turnovers before the end

399
00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:37,240
Speaker 1: of the season. So more four games, yes, more than

400
00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:40,640
Speaker 1: thirty turnovers before the end of the They're averaging two games, right,

401
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:43,840
Speaker 1: that's safe, I know. But they've had one game when

402
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:45,959
Speaker 1: they didn't turn the ball over correct one and one,

403
00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:49,359
Speaker 1: So there you go. So there's that. Then I'm gonna

404
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:52,159
Speaker 1: point to right there. I'm gonna say that Jonathan Taylor

405
00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:56,200
Speaker 1: eclipses eleven hundred yards rushing. Wow. Okay, That's what I'm

406
00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:59,680
Speaker 1: going with right now. Um, and then the Colts will

407
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:04,000
Speaker 1: win two or more of their last four games. Okay,

408
00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:07,679
Speaker 1: I like it. Parlay There of those, I feel, and

409
00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:11,920
Speaker 1: I am a terrible like fantasy football betting, like, I

410
00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:15,359
Speaker 1: am terrible at it. So I kind of went safe.

411
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:19,520
Speaker 1: I think if Jonathan Taylor, I'll even lower the bar

412
00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:22,119
Speaker 1: if you will, to a thousand yards casey, if he

413
00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:25,879
Speaker 1: gets over a thousand yards this season, considering he's missed

414
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:28,920
Speaker 1: two games, he's played banged up a couple of times,

415
00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:32,480
Speaker 1: and the struggles within the running game behind the offensive

416
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:35,159
Speaker 1: line to not be able to generate the push that

417
00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:38,280
Speaker 1: they certainly generated last year, I think if he gets

418
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:40,840
Speaker 1: a thousand yards this year, it's still quite an accomplishment.

419
00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:44,240
Speaker 1: I agree completely. I think I feel like the thousand

420
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:48,320
Speaker 1: yard plateau is kind of like the standard now and

421
00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:50,960
Speaker 1: we expect, especially with seventeen games right and you kind

422
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:54,119
Speaker 1: of expect Jonathan Taylor to be in that twelve hundred,

423
00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:56,280
Speaker 1: especially after what we saw last year. But I couldn't

424
00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:58,560
Speaker 1: agree more with He's at eight sixty one right now.

425
00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:01,240
Speaker 1: Everything else around him. I think him reaching a thousand

426
00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:03,800
Speaker 1: just shows you know what, he had a lot early

427
00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:06,080
Speaker 1: in the year that kind of kept him down. But

428
00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:08,680
Speaker 1: if you really look at the push that he's had recently,

429
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:10,600
Speaker 1: I think he's the only running back over the last

430
00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:13,080
Speaker 1: with four or five weeks the average over seventy five

431
00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:15,600
Speaker 1: yards a game, which that's a pretty good idea of

432
00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:19,040
Speaker 1: where he has been lately, he's twice. The one thing,

433
00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,960
Speaker 1: and this is something that Lindsay touches on in our

434
00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:24,199
Speaker 1: in our conversation with her, that you do face some

435
00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:27,040
Speaker 1: week defenses like That's the one thing is I think

436
00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:29,479
Speaker 1: that there's some teams that you can run on moving forward.

437
00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:31,840
Speaker 1: All Right, can I go? Okay, sure, go for it?

438
00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:35,000
Speaker 1: All right, I've got Alec Pierce. Alec Pierce will end

439
00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:40,160
Speaker 1: up with six hundred and fifty receiving yards. Matt Ryan,

440
00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:43,240
Speaker 1: I went the other way, Lara. Matt Ryan will suffer

441
00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:48,239
Speaker 1: one turnover or less and the final four games of

442
00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:51,000
Speaker 1: the season. And here's the one I really like. And

443
00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:52,560
Speaker 1: you guys are gonna make fun of me because you

444
00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:55,920
Speaker 1: know me. I'm a kicker guy. Chase mcglough By the way,

445
00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:58,240
Speaker 1: Chase McLoughlin going to join us in studio this week.

446
00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:01,920
Speaker 1: Awesome Chase mcglough and will make at least two more

447
00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:10,879
Speaker 1: kicks this season. Three out of four games are a

448
00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:14,359
Speaker 1: real big well, certainly yeah, because he leads the NFL

449
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:17,760
Speaker 1: and interceptions and total turnovers. But I think he's mad,

450
00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:20,760
Speaker 1: I really do. I think he's mad deep down and

451
00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:24,439
Speaker 1: he's so professional and so uh just just in charge

452
00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:27,440
Speaker 1: of his emotions. But I think he's mad because that

453
00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:30,240
Speaker 1: has taken place in his first year with a new team,

454
00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:32,879
Speaker 1: Mad because he is so much better than that, and

455
00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:36,400
Speaker 1: mad because that's what everybody thinks he is now with

456
00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:38,720
Speaker 1: a new team at age thirty seven, this guy that's

457
00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:42,120
Speaker 1: turnover prone, that can't hang onto the football. I think

458
00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:44,320
Speaker 1: he's gonna play with a chip on his shoulder. And

459
00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:46,400
Speaker 1: I think he's been given the green light from Jeff

460
00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:48,800
Speaker 1: Saturday to just go out there and beat him selling

461
00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:51,520
Speaker 1: it coming back after the bye and everybody's wondering what

462
00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:53,280
Speaker 1: are the Colts going to do at quarterback in these

463
00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:57,000
Speaker 1: final four games? Turning things to Matt Ryan, I think

464
00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:59,240
Speaker 1: has maybe provided a little bit of a weight off

465
00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:01,160
Speaker 1: of his shoulders to be the leader that this team

466
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:03,680
Speaker 1: needs on offense. So you say that he's mad, so

467
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:06,520
Speaker 1: maybe like you would say, like like really hot, like

468
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:15,800
Speaker 1: he's hot, he's hot, so nice, that right, But you guys,

469
00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:18,200
Speaker 1: you guys know how you don't do this podcast this

470
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:25,200
Speaker 1: long and dad jokes for Matt Taylor. That's right, Lara,

471
00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:27,359
Speaker 1: come over to the dark side. You'd love to have you.

472
00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:31,960
Speaker 1: And the water's fine now, mister, mister McLoughlin seven field

473
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:35,159
Speaker 1: goals over fifty this season, third most in the NFL.

474
00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:38,600
Speaker 1: That ties a club record with Adam Vinati. And you

475
00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:41,760
Speaker 1: guys remember last offseason when I was all over the

476
00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:46,400
Speaker 1: Cincinnati Bengals and Evan McPherson, Right, this is why points

477
00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:48,919
Speaker 1: are good. Three points at the end of a half

478
00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:52,240
Speaker 1: or a game. Those are enormous And it's so big

479
00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:55,520
Speaker 1: when you can rely on your kicker and have confidence

480
00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:57,840
Speaker 1: in your kicker from fifty five yards or so. And

481
00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:00,159
Speaker 1: in so, I think the culture gonna be an a

482
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:04,000
Speaker 1: lot of instances where they need McLoughlin and he'll make

483
00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:06,480
Speaker 1: at least two more fifty yard field goals. That's my prediction.

484
00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:09,399
Speaker 1: The really impressive stat that you dug up, or Casey,

485
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:11,600
Speaker 1: I think dug it up when we were on the

486
00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:15,080
Speaker 1: show Sunday Night in Dallas first parting. Yeah, three straight

487
00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:17,600
Speaker 1: games with a fifty first time in colds hisstory. To

488
00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:20,000
Speaker 1: have a kicker three straight games of a kick over

489
00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:22,720
Speaker 1: fifty yards, that's unbelievable to me when you think of

490
00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:26,120
Speaker 1: like the kicking grates of the organization. Yeah, I mean,

491
00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:29,240
Speaker 1: that's that's awesome. Also to me, that should solidify that

492
00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:31,919
Speaker 1: you bring Chase McLoughlin back next year. Also right on

493
00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:35,240
Speaker 1: another tip, a topic for another podcast, no doubt in

494
00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:37,120
Speaker 1: three or four weeks. And I'm not sure what I mean,

495
00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:39,400
Speaker 1: what else do you want? What else do you need

496
00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:41,000
Speaker 1: to see? I mean, I know we're not going to

497
00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:45,040
Speaker 1: play GM right here, but I mean, certainly, considering the

498
00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:48,440
Speaker 1: way he entered this season. Week two sort of on

499
00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:51,399
Speaker 1: the street was let go or wave By was living

500
00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:54,920
Speaker 1: down the street, actually living like training camp Grant living

501
00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:58,239
Speaker 1: in Westfield, Carmel area. Yeah, all right, so that's uh,

502
00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:00,159
Speaker 1: that's my two hundred to one ticket all the I

503
00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:02,159
Speaker 1: feel really confident, to be honest with you. I mean,

504
00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:04,760
Speaker 1: I think Alec Pierce six to fifty. If you would

505
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:06,840
Speaker 1: have told me Alec Pierce gets six hundred and fifty

506
00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:09,440
Speaker 1: receiving yards in his rookie season, I would have said

507
00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:12,720
Speaker 1: that's pretty lofty. But I think he's I think he's

508
00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:14,879
Speaker 1: on track for that, and based on how the Colts

509
00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:18,119
Speaker 1: have utilized him this season and the deep ball, pushing

510
00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:19,760
Speaker 1: the ball down the field, he's really kind of the

511
00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:22,159
Speaker 1: only threat the Colts have in that regard. I mean,

512
00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:24,880
Speaker 1: he's got three catches this year over forty I don't

513
00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:27,080
Speaker 1: think six fifty is out of the realm of possibility.

514
00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:29,119
Speaker 1: So casey, gimme or give me your three here, so

515
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:31,639
Speaker 1: mine I went. Michael Pittman is going to set a

516
00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:34,480
Speaker 1: new career high in receiving yards. So right now he's

517
00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:37,560
Speaker 1: three hundred and twenty seven yards away from his career high,

518
00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:39,879
Speaker 1: which was last year. So we need an average about

519
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:43,240
Speaker 1: eighty yards a game the last four, so I think

520
00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:46,639
Speaker 1: he gets that. I think the Colts defense will force

521
00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:50,520
Speaker 1: multiple turnovers in each of the next four games. Turnovers

522
00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:52,520
Speaker 1: has been a pretty hot button topic when you're talking

523
00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:55,080
Speaker 1: about this defense not being able to get turnovers. I

524
00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:57,560
Speaker 1: feel like they turn that around the next four and

525
00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:01,560
Speaker 1: then Yannick and Ghakway. Will he clips his career high

526
00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:04,199
Speaker 1: with twelve sacks, which was he did that in his

527
00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:07,600
Speaker 1: second year, so he's three and a half away from matching. Okay,

528
00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:10,679
Speaker 1: at twelve, I think he'll get a fourth sack to

529
00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:12,639
Speaker 1: give him a new career high him eight right now,

530
00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:14,360
Speaker 1: he's an eight and a half right now, So that's

531
00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:16,960
Speaker 1: where I mean. I don't think those are super lofty,

532
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:19,480
Speaker 1: but I also think there's still little risk. I like you.

533
00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:23,040
Speaker 1: I like your takeaways there because obviously Stefan Gilmour has

534
00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:25,520
Speaker 1: been huge in some situations. I think before the end

535
00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:27,760
Speaker 1: of this season, I think Isaiah Rodgers isn't a great

536
00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:30,359
Speaker 1: opportunity to get to get a pick. Yeah, I mean

537
00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:33,000
Speaker 1: great opportunity. I still am convinced that he had that

538
00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:37,879
Speaker 1: one in Dallas, But I was in Matt's here. It

539
00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:40,679
Speaker 1: happened three feet in front of my face. I was

540
00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:44,040
Speaker 1: just beyond. I was just you know, like maybe at

541
00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:47,600
Speaker 1: the I don't know, five yards, you know, beyond where

542
00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:49,119
Speaker 1: he was. So I didn't see him from head on.

543
00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:51,679
Speaker 1: I saw him from cleats on, and I was I

544
00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:54,000
Speaker 1: was young. I was like, he's got it. Like I

545
00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:56,400
Speaker 1: get so fired up on I mean, like like I'm

546
00:26:56,440 --> 00:27:00,320
Speaker 1: on Bubba Entrone level when I'm on the side. That

547
00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:03,159
Speaker 1: was huge that they scored a touchdown that drive, and

548
00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:05,800
Speaker 1: if I'm not mistaken, they went up by two scores

549
00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:08,760
Speaker 1: with that touchdown to go up by nine, and then obviously,

550
00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:11,879
Speaker 1: you know, everything sort of unraveled after that. That just

551
00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:15,200
Speaker 1: shows you though there were my second little parlay here

552
00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:18,000
Speaker 1: with turnovers, how key they are. I mean, you see

553
00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:19,560
Speaker 1: that game in Dallas, you look at the score and

554
00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:21,480
Speaker 1: you go, wow, it's a blowout. I mean really, I

555
00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:22,840
Speaker 1: mean it was a two point game in the fourth

556
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:25,520
Speaker 1: quarter and that's where it was, and that's how key

557
00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:28,480
Speaker 1: turnovers are. So I just think this defense is We've

558
00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:30,680
Speaker 1: been talking about it all year because last year you're

559
00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:33,320
Speaker 1: first in the NFL and takeaways this year your last.

560
00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:36,439
Speaker 1: I think it's something is going to click and these

561
00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:38,520
Speaker 1: guys are gonna get a little hungry the last four weeks.

562
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:41,480
Speaker 1: Only have twelve takeaways in three in the last four

563
00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:44,480
Speaker 1: games this year. So and that's the thing with Minnesota,

564
00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:46,560
Speaker 1: to go back on them, I know we're gonna talk

565
00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:49,119
Speaker 1: about them coming up with Lindsay Rhodes, who's going to

566
00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:52,440
Speaker 1: join us in a little bit. But Minnesota obviously off

567
00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:54,440
Speaker 1: to a great start. They're ten and three. They're one

568
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:56,919
Speaker 1: game away from our one win away from clinching the

569
00:27:57,240 --> 00:28:00,359
Speaker 1: NFC North for the first time since twenty seventeen. But

570
00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:04,160
Speaker 1: they have nine wins this season in one score games

571
00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:07,959
Speaker 1: despite having a negative point differential on the season. They

572
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:11,639
Speaker 1: have a negative one point differential on the year, but

573
00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:14,400
Speaker 1: they are nine and oz in games where they win

574
00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:16,639
Speaker 1: the turnover battle. So it goes back to what we

575
00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:19,280
Speaker 1: talked about last week, Larah. I mean, it's sort that

576
00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:22,560
Speaker 1: rhetorical question that we asked ourselves. But if the Colts

577
00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:25,320
Speaker 1: just half half of the turnovers this season on offense,

578
00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:29,080
Speaker 1: how many more wins would they have? And Minnesota's kind

579
00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:30,840
Speaker 1: of like living proof of that. If you just don't

580
00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:35,520
Speaker 1: hurt yourself, you can overcome things. You can win close games,

581
00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:37,719
Speaker 1: you can make plays in the fourth quarter, you can

582
00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:40,160
Speaker 1: be in these one score games. Yeah, you know, so

583
00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:42,920
Speaker 1: no question, that's been a hot button issue. I mean,

584
00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:45,600
Speaker 1: Jeff Saturday talked about it all all week long going

585
00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:47,840
Speaker 1: into the game this Saturday. You know, sort of the

586
00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:50,800
Speaker 1: theme of the season is turnovers and and do you

587
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,160
Speaker 1: think that is that the ire of anyone more than

588
00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:55,960
Speaker 1: an offensive linemen to like, you know, not take care

589
00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:58,320
Speaker 1: of the football? Right? Like, I mean, just you think

590
00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:02,320
Speaker 1: about that, there's anyone who you're your foundation is formed in,

591
00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:06,160
Speaker 1: you know, protection, and it's yeah, it's that like forty

592
00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:09,760
Speaker 1: six sacks allowed. Yeah right, all right, Well let's transition.

593
00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:12,440
Speaker 1: Let's go to the hotline. Now, let's welcome in NFL

594
00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:15,920
Speaker 1: Insider please to be with today Lindsay Rhodes from the

595

00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:21,360
Speaker 1: talk about the Colts and go around the NFL a

597
00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:23,800
Speaker 1: little bit. Lindsay, thanks for the time today. How are

598
00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:28,040
Speaker 1: you hi, I'm doing well. Thank you so much for

599
00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:30,440
Speaker 1: having me. Absolutely so. I we got to start, I

600
00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:33,120
Speaker 1: guess with your your national take on the Colts watching

601
00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:35,800
Speaker 1: them from afar this season? What do you got? What

602
00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:37,520
Speaker 1: you what have you made of the horse shoes here

603
00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:41,680
Speaker 1: in Indianapolis? Well, I have questions for you guys, fireaway.

604
00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:44,320
Speaker 1: I don't know what to make I don't know what

605
00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:47,080
Speaker 1: to make of this team from a national stampoint. I mean,

606
00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:49,560
Speaker 1: obviously everybody in the world has thoughts on the Jeff

607
00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:52,720
Speaker 1: Saturday hire, you know, but from but from a play

608
00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:55,360
Speaker 1: on the field standpoint, I feel like the team that

609
00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:58,560
Speaker 1: you guys cover has been just the most perplexing team

610
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:01,720
Speaker 1: in the NFL. Right the offensive line not looking like

611
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:04,040
Speaker 1: the offensive line that I think most people were expecting

612
00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:07,160
Speaker 1: it too. I would have never never guessed that Matt

613
00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:09,040
Speaker 1: Ryan was going to look the way that he would

614
00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:11,400
Speaker 1: have looked. I mean, you know, you you expect some

615
00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:16,239
Speaker 1: like appreciation of talent, I suppose, but I feel like

616
00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:20,240
Speaker 1: the Cults have been the hardest team to figure out

617
00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:23,040
Speaker 1: this year. And then but what's also so weird is

618
00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:25,440
Speaker 1: you guys know, is that then all of a sudden,

619
00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:28,600
Speaker 1: they're games when it all kind of clicks and you're like, oh,

620
00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:31,080
Speaker 1: maybe they're onto something. And then the next game comes

621
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:33,440
Speaker 1: along and you're like, oh, nope, nope, they weren't. They

622
00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:37,000
Speaker 1: weren't onto something. And so I I don't know, I

623
00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:39,680
Speaker 1: don't know now now, Lindsay, one of the things that

624
00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:41,880
Speaker 1: you brought up there with with Jeff Saturday in that

625
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:46,480
Speaker 1: national perspective, he mentioned today that he is fully on

626
00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:48,400
Speaker 1: with this coaching thing and wants to kind of see

627
00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:50,160
Speaker 1: how it goes and go through the whole process. So

628
00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:52,920
Speaker 1: from a national aspect, what has that outlook been on

629
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:56,880
Speaker 1: Jeff Saturday From you know, from a far well. I mean,

630
00:30:56,960 --> 00:31:00,160
Speaker 1: obviously a lot was made about the fact that he

631
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:02,480
Speaker 1: was kind of hand picked, right, and I think there's

632
00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:05,920
Speaker 1: some validity to that. And my original take was that,

633
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:09,200
Speaker 1: like Jim Ursey kind of didn't really read the room nationally, Like,

634
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:12,000
Speaker 1: we've had a lot of conversations for the last few

635
00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:16,480
Speaker 1: years about the way coaches are hired, and particularly with

636
00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:21,000
Speaker 1: regard to minority coaches not having access to owners, the

637
00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:26,880
Speaker 1: way that some of the other coaches have to pick

638
00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:29,520
Speaker 1: h someone that you feel close to and you feel

639
00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:30,960
Speaker 1: like they're going to be good, but they haven't had

640
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:33,880
Speaker 1: to prove it over and over again kind of you know,

641
00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:37,040
Speaker 1: at the coaching level or at the NFL levels, who

642
00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:42,400
Speaker 1: have not made coaching his profession. I think I never

643
00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:45,040
Speaker 1: thought like, Oh, this is obviously a bad hire and

644
00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:47,720
Speaker 1: it won't work out. My reaction was more like, Oh,

645
00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:49,920
Speaker 1: this is going to upset a lot of people within

646
00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:53,360
Speaker 1: the coaching profession, and then just people who have been

647
00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:58,560
Speaker 1: advocating for different well specifically minority coaches to have more

648
00:31:58,560 --> 00:32:00,880
Speaker 1: opportunities than they've had in years passed, and how do

649
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:04,400
Speaker 1: we fix that? And then to specifically go get Jeff

650
00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:07,400
Speaker 1: Saturday I thought was obviously going to feel like a

651
00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:10,000
Speaker 1: slap in the face too a lot of people. It

652
00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:12,640
Speaker 1: has nothing to do with Jeff Saturday for me personally, right,

653
00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:16,920
Speaker 1: But I also I noticed last week in no not

654
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:20,120
Speaker 1: last week in week thirteen in the Colts last game,

655
00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:23,720
Speaker 1: there was a play against the Cowboys that got my attention.

656
00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:26,760
Speaker 1: And it was late in the game when the Cowboys

657
00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:29,320
Speaker 1: had a big lead, and it made sense like they're

658
00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:31,080
Speaker 1: trying to run out the clock and so they're running

659
00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:34,000
Speaker 1: the ball and it's totally out of control and then

660
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:36,400
Speaker 1: they need it made sense to pass on a third

661
00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:38,479
Speaker 1: and long to pick up a first down so they

662
00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:40,600
Speaker 1: could continue to try to run out the clock. But

663
00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:42,880
Speaker 1: they didn't throw for the sticks. They threw they like

664
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:45,640
Speaker 1: went for it, And I went, oh god, you know,

665
00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:49,160
Speaker 1: like that felt a little bit like maybe poor sportsmanship.

666
00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:51,720
Speaker 1: We might see like in this situation, you wouldn't normally

667
00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:53,760
Speaker 1: take a shot at the end zone, and they did.

668
00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:56,600
Speaker 1: And Jason Lachamp for it, tweeted out that a lot

669
00:32:56,640 --> 00:33:01,120
Speaker 1: of coaches and were offended at the way that the

670
00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:04,120
Speaker 1: whole you know, Frank Reich and Jeff Saturday thing was

671
00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:09,600
Speaker 1: handled by Ersay, and that he thought that type of thing,

672
00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:13,440
Speaker 1: when the situation presented itself, might happen more as the

673
00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:16,120
Speaker 1: year goes on. Those are not situations that are going

674
00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:19,280
Speaker 1: to present themselves all that frequently, right, Like how often

675
00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:20,920
Speaker 1: is it that you end up in a game where

676
00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:23,280
Speaker 1: you're just getting blown out so that you have those

677
00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:27,920
Speaker 1: types of like obvious pylon situations. But it was something

678
00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:32,720
Speaker 1: that I thought was an interesting point worth taking into

679
00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:35,880
Speaker 1: consideration moving forward if it does come up, because I

680
00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:38,240
Speaker 1: thought there was certainly a chance that that was what

681
00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:42,720
Speaker 1: was happening there. The Colts, despite their struggles of late.

682
00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:45,720
Speaker 1: I guess all season long, really you think about, my goodness,

683
00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:48,320
Speaker 1: the win over Kansas City feels like it was a

684
00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:51,040
Speaker 1: lifetime away. And then they you know, had it so

685
00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:54,000
Speaker 1: close until under two minutes to go against Philadelphia. You

686
00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:56,800
Speaker 1: gave yourself an opportunity until the fourth quarter again Stallas.

687
00:33:56,840 --> 00:34:00,120
Speaker 1: But the Colts are still have a chance, a very

688
00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:03,320
Speaker 1: outside looking in chance of getting into the postseason because

689
00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:06,640
Speaker 1: the AFC South is one of the weakest divisions in

690
00:34:06,720 --> 00:34:09,240
Speaker 1: football when you look at how things have shaken out.

691
00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:12,720
Speaker 1: Tennessee certainly does not look like the Titans of the past,

692
00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:18,120
Speaker 1: and they've endured their own turmoil this season. But with Tennessee, Jacksonville, Indianapolis,

693
00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:21,920
Speaker 1: and Houston among the division, who is the most promising

694
00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:25,400
Speaker 1: moving into the final quarter of this season that has

695
00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:28,719
Speaker 1: an opportunity to show what they're made of in this

696
00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:31,319
Speaker 1: final month of the regular season and then also kind

697
00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:34,719
Speaker 1: of declare themselves a contender as we start to already

698
00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:37,240
Speaker 1: turn the page and look ahead to twenty twenty three.

699
00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:41,160
Speaker 1: I feel like I have the most optimism right now

700
00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:47,920
Speaker 1: for Jacksonville. I that I like it interesting is that shocking.

701
00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:50,800
Speaker 1: I'm surprised a little bit about the shock that's attached

702
00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:53,799
Speaker 1: to that reaction. Well, just I mean just because record wise,

703
00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:56,680
Speaker 1: we're just so used to top ten picks and top

704
00:34:56,719 --> 00:34:59,399
Speaker 1: five picks, and I mean they've certainly got head coach

705
00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:02,040
Speaker 1: figured out, quarterback figured out. Everything else is sort of

706
00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:05,280
Speaker 1: grayvy on those potatoes. Yeah, And I think that's that's

707
00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:08,120
Speaker 1: part of it. Like, if you look at the play

708
00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:11,920
Speaker 1: of Trevor Lawrence and the last month and a half,

709
00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:16,360
Speaker 1: so the game against Detroit was not good for Jacksonville

710
00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:20,319
Speaker 1: at all. I think that we're continuing to talk about

711
00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:22,759
Speaker 1: Detroit in a way that might be off nationally. I

712
00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:25,960
Speaker 1: think that if you look at like the deeper metrics

713
00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:30,080
Speaker 1: on Detroit, what you'll find is that in terms of

714
00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:33,919
Speaker 1: DVOA or expected points added, things that really dive down

715
00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:39,600
Speaker 1: into what individual teams and players are doing on individual situations,

716
00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:41,800
Speaker 1: what they should be expected to and what they're doing.

717
00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:46,320
Speaker 1: You'll find that Detroit since Week nine has actually started

718
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:50,160
Speaker 1: playing pretty well on the defensive side of the ball too.

719
00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:52,600
Speaker 1: It's not just on the offensive side of the ball.

720
00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:56,720
Speaker 1: So the offense for the Lions is number five expected

721
00:35:56,760 --> 00:35:59,160
Speaker 1: points added per play in that time number one in

722
00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:02,680
Speaker 1: drop back AP but the defense is the sixteenth best

723
00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:05,479
Speaker 1: EPA per play since week nine, they were dead left

724
00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:08,560
Speaker 1: like obviously the worst we've fluent through eight. So I

725
00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:12,319
Speaker 1: think that, you know, obviously, if the Jacksonville Jaguars are

726
00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:15,080
Speaker 1: a good team, then you want to overcome that. But

727
00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:18,120
Speaker 1: I think that looking at them and saying, oh, they've

728
00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:20,600
Speaker 1: laid an egg against Detroit, they couldn't even get done

729
00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:22,680
Speaker 1: against Detroit, I think that we need to kind of

730
00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:25,200
Speaker 1: pivot our narrative with Detroit a little bit and catch

731
00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:27,320
Speaker 1: up to the fact that they're actually playing much better

732
00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:30,600
Speaker 1: on both sides of the ball they're in Detroit. So

733
00:36:30,719 --> 00:36:34,440
Speaker 1: that said, I think the fact that we've seen we've

734
00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:38,280
Speaker 1: seen more of like the highlight version of Trevor Lawrence

735
00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:41,759
Speaker 1: that we expected to see in the back half of

736
00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:44,120
Speaker 1: the season this year. I think that he's playing much better.

737
00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:47,880
Speaker 1: I think that they have some pieces that makes sense

738
00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:51,760
Speaker 1: to build off of offensively, and I think that they're

739
00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:55,719
Speaker 1: they're a team that I feel like has the best

740
00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:57,600
Speaker 1: I mean, I mean Tennessee. Look, they are what they

741
00:36:57,640 --> 00:37:01,759
Speaker 1: are right like, they're Derrick Henry on offense. They don't

742
00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:05,160
Speaker 1: have any kind of passing game attached to them, and

743
00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:08,640
Speaker 1: I think that Jacksonville is the team that really has

744
00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:10,960
Speaker 1: the best shot in the division if they were to

745
00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:13,840
Speaker 1: eke out. And I haven't pulled up the schedules for

746
00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:15,440
Speaker 1: all of the teams in the AFCY South to see

747
00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:17,000
Speaker 1: who they really have to play down the stretch and

748
00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:20,480
Speaker 1: how realistic it is so they could potentially overcome Tennessee.

749
00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:22,959
Speaker 1: But I think that they are a team to point

750
00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:24,799
Speaker 1: to in the AFCY South that says, Okay, this is

751
00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:26,640
Speaker 1: the one that's headed in the right direction going into

752
00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:29,919
Speaker 1: next season. And then also I think if they were

753
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:32,920
Speaker 1: to make it to the postseason somehow, they're the team

754
00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:35,640
Speaker 1: that would have the best shot at knocking someone off.

755
00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:38,279
Speaker 1: And also not for nothing, but like you know, net

756
00:37:38,280 --> 00:37:41,360
Speaker 1: points on the season, they're at zero, which is growth,

757
00:37:41,680 --> 00:37:44,000
Speaker 1: but also it's the best in the Apecy South. Everybody

758
00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:47,399
Speaker 1: else's net negative. Yeah, So you got Cowboys at home

759
00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:52,040
Speaker 1: against the Cowboys this Sunday, at the Jets Texans on

760
00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:55,239
Speaker 1: January first, and then closing out the season against the

761
00:37:55,239 --> 00:37:58,040
Speaker 1: Titans on January eighth. So there you go. That's the

762
00:37:58,120 --> 00:38:00,799
Speaker 1: look at the final four for the Jaguars as we

763
00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:03,920
Speaker 1: look ahead to this Saturday, for the Colts. The Vikings

764
00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:07,560
Speaker 1: are up next. Lindsay, this is a simple question, but

765
00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:11,360
Speaker 1: a loaded question. Are the Are the Vikings good? I

766
00:38:11,360 --> 00:38:13,839
Speaker 1: mean they're they're ten and three, but but nine one

767
00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:16,279
Speaker 1: score wins? What do you make of them? Are Are

768
00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:18,560
Speaker 1: they any good? Are they just kind of you know,

769
00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:21,479
Speaker 1: a mirage to this point? Yeah, somebody I was talking

770
00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:23,200
Speaker 1: to somebody this past week and they said that they

771
00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:26,480
Speaker 1: went and looked at one score games and if you

772
00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:30,480
Speaker 1: flipped the results of one score games, because that's obviously

773
00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:33,200
Speaker 1: kind of a volatile thing, it on either way that

774
00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:35,600
Speaker 1: there's a scenario in which they have one win, Yeah,

775
00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:38,160
Speaker 1: they're like one in eleven or something if you flipped it.

776
00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:42,560
Speaker 1: So but I also think again going to things like

777
00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:45,719
Speaker 1: DVOA hetty. I haven't looked at it again since last

778
00:38:45,760 --> 00:38:48,480
Speaker 1: week's or this past weekend's game against the Lions, but

779
00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:50,720
Speaker 1: in terms of DVO eight going into that game, because

780
00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:53,279
Speaker 1: when the line for the Vikings Lions game came out,

781
00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:55,560
Speaker 1: I think everyone was just shocked, right like, how are

782
00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:58,600
Speaker 1: the Lions favored in this game with five wins going

783
00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:01,800
Speaker 1: up against ten win Viking squad? Like? What is Vegas doing?

784
00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:04,720
Speaker 1: But you know, I was like well, they're obviously doing something,

785
00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:06,360
Speaker 1: and that's kind of where I came up with the

786
00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:10,160
Speaker 1: Lions DVOA stuff and the fact that looking at it,

787
00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:12,680
Speaker 1: the Lions you're playing better well. The Vikings are in

788
00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:16,120
Speaker 1: like the load of mid twenties in every category in

789
00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:19,360
Speaker 1: terms of DVOA across the board. So there really aren't

790
00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:24,040
Speaker 1: any you know, statistics that would point to get the Vikings.

791
00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:26,359
Speaker 1: They're just playing really good ball. You have to give

792
00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:29,279
Speaker 1: them credit for winning those games though there's something to

793
00:39:29,360 --> 00:39:30,880
Speaker 1: be said for that. But if you're trying to be

794
00:39:30,960 --> 00:39:33,800
Speaker 1: predictive and say like is this team really good, is

795
00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:36,239
Speaker 1: this team going to continue this or is this a

796
00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:39,279
Speaker 1: super volatile thing that we've been looking at to this point,

797
00:39:39,320 --> 00:39:41,680
Speaker 1: I think you have to point a volatility on behalf

798
00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:45,239
Speaker 1: of the Vikings as opposed to just really good quality play.

799
00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:47,160
Speaker 1: And then you look at like the quarterback play, like

800
00:39:47,239 --> 00:39:50,560
Speaker 1: her Cousins is not having a good year, but they're

801
00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:55,399
Speaker 1: winning games, but he's not been particularly good and nor

802
00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:59,759
Speaker 1: particularly consistent. So I would say going into this week,

803
00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:03,120
Speaker 1: the Vikings look like a scary team to go up against,

804
00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:06,400
Speaker 1: particularly for a team that has had the lack of

805
00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:08,839
Speaker 1: success that the Cools have had this year, But I

806
00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:11,120
Speaker 1: think you have to look at it as a game

807
00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:14,879
Speaker 1: that is potentially winnable because they just don't think I

808
00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:16,680
Speaker 1: don't think that the Vikings are as good as their

809
00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:19,319
Speaker 1: record is, which I guess the long winded way of

810
00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:21,680
Speaker 1: getting to that sentence, right, Yeah, Well that brings me

811
00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:23,520
Speaker 1: to a good point. I mean, if the Vikings win,

812
00:40:24,160 --> 00:40:26,680
Speaker 1: they win the division, so that they could already lock

813
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:29,120
Speaker 1: up a playoff spot. And one of the things you

814
00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:31,760
Speaker 1: always hear throughout, you know, all of sports, is defense

815
00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:35,000
Speaker 1: wins championships, and this Vikings defense is thirty second in

816
00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:37,040
Speaker 1: the league and a lot of categories. But then you

817
00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:39,839
Speaker 1: mentioned that offense. You got Dalvin Cook justin Jefferson who

818
00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:41,880
Speaker 1: kind of help up a lot of the issues that

819
00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:44,960
Speaker 1: they have when you look at that recipe. I know

820
00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:47,080
Speaker 1: you just said, you know they're not a you know,

821
00:40:47,120 --> 00:40:50,400
Speaker 1: a juggernaut for sure, but do you think those weapons

822
00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:54,800
Speaker 1: can overcome things when playoff football rolls around? Oh? For sure,

823
00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:57,439
Speaker 1: for sure. I think if you I mean, and that's

824
00:40:57,480 --> 00:40:59,399
Speaker 1: one of those things that you're looking at. You want

825
00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:02,720
Speaker 1: a team that can't get it done both ways offensively

826
00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:05,040
Speaker 1: and can make a big play here and there. So

827
00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:06,959
Speaker 1: if they're not going to be consistent, and I think

828
00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:08,759
Speaker 1: that in some ways you have to look at that

829
00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:11,319
Speaker 1: as the reason for the record, despite the lack of

830
00:41:11,360 --> 00:41:16,160
Speaker 1: consistent success, is that there are those those big plays,

831
00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:18,920
Speaker 1: like you can hit Justin Jefferson, you know, and if

832
00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:21,920
Speaker 1: you find yourself in a third and ten over and

833
00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:24,319
Speaker 1: over and over in the game and you go to

834
00:41:24,400 --> 00:41:27,480
Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson every single time, a couple of those times,

835
00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:30,279
Speaker 1: he's going to make an incredible play for you. Right,

836
00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:34,719
Speaker 1: Like the numbers, it's not a high percentage situation. But

837
00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:37,160
Speaker 1: if you are in a low percentage situation, who do

838
00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:39,120
Speaker 1: you want to be making a play for you? On

839
00:41:39,160 --> 00:41:41,440
Speaker 1: the other end of that, it's Justin Jefferson. Like, I

840
00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:43,279
Speaker 1: can't think of anybody else in the league that I

841
00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:47,319
Speaker 1: would rather have in that situation. So absolutely, I think

842
00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:51,839
Speaker 1: you have to consider them as a team that could

843
00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:54,960
Speaker 1: beat anybody. I just don't think that they're a team

844
00:41:55,120 --> 00:41:56,959
Speaker 1: that you can count on to do that. I don't

845
00:41:57,000 --> 00:41:59,640
Speaker 1: think that, Like when you look at the Philadelphia Eagles,

846
00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:03,000
Speaker 1: who are so well rounded, they have a really good defense,

847
00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:04,960
Speaker 1: which I don't necessarily think you need to have a

848
00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:07,160
Speaker 1: really good defense come the playoffs. I think that a

849
00:42:07,280 --> 00:42:11,440
Speaker 1: really good offense can overcome a really good defense. But

850
00:42:12,040 --> 00:42:15,480
Speaker 1: I do think that they happen to have a very

851
00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:17,799
Speaker 1: good defense, and they have a very good offense, and

852
00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:20,120
Speaker 1: they have an offense that is built in such a

853
00:42:20,160 --> 00:42:23,080
Speaker 1: way where like, so if you are the Packers, who

854
00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:25,560
Speaker 1: they played a few weeks ago, and they're a run funnel,

855
00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:28,400
Speaker 1: they can run like crazy on you, and then they

856
00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:30,520
Speaker 1: can flip it around the next week and play the Titans,

857
00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:33,319
Speaker 1: who have a secondary that has some issues and you

858
00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:35,560
Speaker 1: can throw the ball over the yard on them, And

859
00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:38,239
Speaker 1: then you could go up against the Giants, who are

860
00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:39,440
Speaker 1: a team that I thought that they were going to

861
00:42:39,520 --> 00:42:41,799
Speaker 1: run the ball against because the Giants are giving up

862
00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:44,960
Speaker 1: like five yards per carry on the ground, and they

863
00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:47,000
Speaker 1: didn't even do that. They ended up getting all these

864
00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:48,759
Speaker 1: rushing yards, but it was all in the second half

865
00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:51,960
Speaker 1: once they had a big lead. So from an analysis standpoint,

866
00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:54,160
Speaker 1: I felt like I ended up being right for the

867
00:42:54,239 --> 00:42:56,799
Speaker 1: wrong reasons though, But I think that that points to

868
00:42:57,160 --> 00:42:59,360
Speaker 1: the overall point that I'm trying to make about Philadelphia,

869
00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:03,160
Speaker 1: which is that no matter what your weaknesses defensively, they

870
00:43:03,160 --> 00:43:05,920
Speaker 1: can attack it, and they don't even have to attack

871
00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:08,719
Speaker 1: it because they might be better at your strength than

872
00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:10,600
Speaker 1: you are. You know what I mean from a head

873
00:43:10,600 --> 00:43:13,319
Speaker 1: to head standpoint. So I think that like you look

874
00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:15,840
Speaker 1: at a team like Philadelphia and you go, okay, on paper,

875
00:43:16,120 --> 00:43:18,640
Speaker 1: that team should be able to compete with everybody. When

876
00:43:18,680 --> 00:43:21,120
Speaker 1: I look at the Vikings, they say that team should

877
00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:23,760
Speaker 1: not be able to, based on what we're seeing, compete

878
00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:26,359
Speaker 1: with everybody. But they could on any given week because

879
00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:28,480
Speaker 1: they certainly have the weapons who could just step up

880
00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:31,359
Speaker 1: and take over a game. Looking at the final four

881
00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:34,120
Speaker 1: games of the season for the Indianapolis Colts, They're on

882
00:43:34,160 --> 00:43:35,920
Speaker 1: the road at Minnesota this week, and then you have

883
00:43:35,960 --> 00:43:38,800
Speaker 1: two home game opportunities to close out the year. Monday

884
00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:40,799
Speaker 1: Night football against the Chargers. You'll go to the New

885
00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:43,520
Speaker 1: York Giants on New Year's Day. Finish up this season

886
00:43:43,680 --> 00:43:47,040
Speaker 1: at home against a visional foe in Houston. And the

887
00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:51,040
Speaker 1: Colts have been their biggest nemesis this year just in

888
00:43:51,160 --> 00:43:53,919
Speaker 1: terms of turnovers. You know you mentioned it earlier, taking

889
00:43:53,960 --> 00:43:56,120
Speaker 1: care of the football. No one kind of expected this

890
00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:58,080
Speaker 1: from Matt Ryan. But when you've had the lack of

891
00:43:58,080 --> 00:44:01,319
Speaker 1: production from the offensive, that's kind of what you have

892
00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:04,040
Speaker 1: resulted in a lack of a run game lack of production.

893
00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:06,160
Speaker 1: The Colts have turned the ball over at least once

894
00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:09,399
Speaker 1: in eleven out of twelve games. Let's say, if the

895
00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:12,960
Speaker 1: Colts are able to find a way to protect the

896
00:44:12,960 --> 00:44:15,600
Speaker 1: football take better care of the football in the final

897
00:44:15,680 --> 00:44:18,400
Speaker 1: four game stretch, how many games do you see of

898
00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:23,680
Speaker 1: those four Vikings, Chargers, Giants in Houston being winnable opportunities

899
00:44:23,719 --> 00:44:26,959
Speaker 1: for Indianapolis If they just shore up the one thing

900
00:44:27,120 --> 00:44:30,320
Speaker 1: that they've shot themselves in the foot on all season long, well,

901
00:44:30,360 --> 00:44:32,680
Speaker 1: I think all four of those are winnable for the

902
00:44:32,719 --> 00:44:37,200
Speaker 1: Colts in that specific situation. I just am not counting

903
00:44:37,239 --> 00:44:42,440
Speaker 1: on that to happen, because, like I said at the outset,

904
00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:44,680
Speaker 1: I don't feel like much of what I've seen from

905
00:44:44,719 --> 00:44:46,600
Speaker 1: the Colts this year has made much sense to me.

906
00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:52,560
Speaker 1: So if they can shore up the turnovers, then I

907
00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:56,440
Speaker 1: think you're looking at some teams there that like the

908
00:44:57,640 --> 00:45:00,399
Speaker 1: problem with the problem with the Chargers for the Colt

909
00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:02,680
Speaker 1: is that the Chargers are actually like what has been

910
00:45:02,680 --> 00:45:06,600
Speaker 1: their weakness all year long is that the fact that

911
00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:08,399
Speaker 1: they just haven't had access to a lot of people

912
00:45:08,400 --> 00:45:10,680
Speaker 1: that they really needed to have access to this year

913
00:45:10,760 --> 00:45:12,920
Speaker 1: in order to be what we wanted them to be offensively,

914
00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:15,160
Speaker 1: like the injuries on the offensive line, the injuries at

915
00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:18,200
Speaker 1: wide receiver, they seem to be moving in a direction

916
00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:21,359
Speaker 1: where they're getting those pieces back. Now, the thing that

917
00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:25,080
Speaker 1: you could potentially, you know, if if Jonathan Taylor can

918
00:45:25,120 --> 00:45:27,480
Speaker 1: have a big game, you can run on the Chargers,

919
00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:31,640
Speaker 1: So that could be a way to attack them. And

920
00:45:31,640 --> 00:45:33,960
Speaker 1: and also you know, maybe keep the ball out of

921
00:45:34,040 --> 00:45:37,960
Speaker 1: Justin Herbert's hands and limit the passing attack that they

922
00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:40,120
Speaker 1: have there in their ability to put up points just

923
00:45:40,200 --> 00:45:42,399
Speaker 1: by you know, grinding it out. So if you can,

924
00:45:42,680 --> 00:45:45,000
Speaker 1: if if it matches up that way, then I could

925
00:45:45,040 --> 00:45:46,640
Speaker 1: see that being a game. I mean, and you know,

926
00:45:46,640 --> 00:45:49,040
Speaker 1: people talk about the Chargers charging, so I mean, I

927
00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:55,200
Speaker 1: could definitely a possibility of that happening. The Coal the

928
00:45:55,239 --> 00:45:57,680
Speaker 1: Giants are a team that you should be able to

929
00:45:57,760 --> 00:46:01,000
Speaker 1: run on if Jonathan Taylor can you know, if you

930
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:03,320
Speaker 1: guys can get that going again. And then the Texans.

931
00:46:03,640 --> 00:46:05,799
Speaker 1: The Texans are a weird one because on paper, you

932
00:46:05,800 --> 00:46:08,200
Speaker 1: look at the Texans and you go, this is They're

933
00:46:08,760 --> 00:46:11,600
Speaker 1: much like the Lions as a team that has jumped

934
00:46:11,600 --> 00:46:13,160
Speaker 1: out to me in the last few weeks where I

935
00:46:13,239 --> 00:46:15,239
Speaker 1: thought like, are we getting them wrong? A little bit

936
00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:20,920
Speaker 1: because their run defense was weeks one through a V

937
00:46:21,120 --> 00:46:22,960
Speaker 1: team that you want to start your running backs against

938
00:46:22,960 --> 00:46:25,960
Speaker 1: in fantasy, Like this was absolutely like, oh, you got

939
00:46:25,960 --> 00:46:28,440
Speaker 1: to play. It was Jeff Wilson Junior a few weeks ago.

940
00:46:28,480 --> 00:46:30,720
Speaker 1: This is when it got my attention. Jeff Wilsons Junior

941
00:46:30,719 --> 00:46:32,920
Speaker 1: everyready freaked out. You got to start him in fantasy.

942
00:46:32,960 --> 00:46:35,360
Speaker 1: This is a must start smashed spot because the Texans

943
00:46:35,400 --> 00:46:38,399
Speaker 1: run defense is just horrible. And then he didn't get

944
00:46:38,440 --> 00:46:40,560
Speaker 1: there and it was a letdown. And then the next

945
00:46:40,560 --> 00:46:43,680
Speaker 1: week the same with Nip Chubb in the same situation.

946
00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:46,359
Speaker 1: Everyone's banging the table, Nip Chubb's gonna go crazy this week,

947
00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:48,640
Speaker 1: but he didn't. He put up eight Fantasy points, and

948
00:46:48,680 --> 00:46:50,720
Speaker 1: so I started looking into it, like are they better

949
00:46:50,880 --> 00:46:53,520
Speaker 1: than we think? Because one player not getting there. You

950
00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:55,080
Speaker 1: could look at it go maybe it was just a

951
00:46:55,120 --> 00:46:59,160
Speaker 1: weird script or the offense was something was amiss two

952
00:46:59,160 --> 00:47:00,600
Speaker 1: weeks in a row, and Nick Chub is one of

953
00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:02,759
Speaker 1: those guys, so I looked into it. The Texans run

954
00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:05,560
Speaker 1: defense is the twelfth best since Week nine and expected

955
00:47:05,600 --> 00:47:08,880
Speaker 1: points at in DV away similar situations, So I haven't

956
00:47:08,960 --> 00:47:10,640
Speaker 1: gone to look at the tape to figure out what

957
00:47:10,840 --> 00:47:13,439
Speaker 1: that is, if they've changed things up schematically, if they've

958
00:47:13,440 --> 00:47:18,040
Speaker 1: moved some pieces around. But the Cowboys started off running

959
00:47:18,040 --> 00:47:20,960
Speaker 1: the ball really really well against them, and then it

960
00:47:21,000 --> 00:47:26,520
Speaker 1: didn't really continue in this past Sunday's game. So I

961
00:47:26,560 --> 00:47:30,319
Speaker 1: would normally point to the Texans had I not really

962
00:47:30,360 --> 00:47:32,760
Speaker 1: been paying close attention to these last few weeks and said, man,

963
00:47:33,120 --> 00:47:37,160
Speaker 1: that those three games are just a you know, like

964
00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:40,200
Speaker 1: a run funnel, like a real good runway for Jonathan

965
00:47:40,239 --> 00:47:43,799
Speaker 1: Taylor to do what he does if Matt Ryan can

966
00:47:43,920 --> 00:47:46,080
Speaker 1: hold onto the ball and not turn it over. But

967
00:47:46,360 --> 00:47:49,120
Speaker 1: I'm not totally sure that the Texans are that defense anymore.

968
00:47:49,400 --> 00:47:52,200
Speaker 1: But there's certainly an opportunity there down this stretch, I think,

969
00:47:52,280 --> 00:47:54,799
Speaker 1: And we already talked about Minnesota. So I mean, all

970
00:47:54,840 --> 00:47:57,920
Speaker 1: four of those games are winnable. I just you know,

971
00:47:58,280 --> 00:48:01,560
Speaker 1: I mean, how confident do you feel like you can

972
00:48:01,760 --> 00:48:04,000
Speaker 1: trust the Colts to do what you expect them to

973
00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:06,600
Speaker 1: do in a best case scenario. Yeah, that's been season Yeah,

974
00:48:06,640 --> 00:48:09,000
Speaker 1: that's been at all season long. Great stuff, right there.

984
00:48:40,280 --> 00:48:43,279
Speaker 1: I am going to tape with him from NFL Films. He's,

985
00:48:43,320 --> 00:48:46,080
Speaker 1: of course one of the best tape analysts, but I

986
00:48:46,120 --> 00:48:48,600
Speaker 1: think in the game yep, And I'm interested to talk

987
00:48:48,640 --> 00:48:50,440
Speaker 1: to him this week for the podcast that will come

988
00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:54,279
Speaker 1: out on Wednesday morning and just kind of see, like

989
00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:57,000
Speaker 1: I just threw out a bunch of stats. I'm not

990
00:48:57,200 --> 00:48:59,359
Speaker 1: I'm not a tape person. I am not the person

991
00:48:59,400 --> 00:49:02,960
Speaker 1: that's grind tape and analyzing things in that way obviously

992
00:49:03,040 --> 00:49:06,560
Speaker 1: watching the games. But I'm interested to see what his

993
00:49:06,640 --> 00:49:09,839
Speaker 1: analysis is in terms of explaining what some of those

994
00:49:09,920 --> 00:49:12,600
Speaker 1: numbers are and then what jumps out at him about

995
00:49:12,640 --> 00:49:14,399
Speaker 1: some of the changes that have been made these last

996
00:49:14,440 --> 00:49:16,279
Speaker 1: few weeks. And so I'm really eager to get his

997
00:49:16,360 --> 00:49:19,920
Speaker 1: thoughts as a different type of perspective. And then I

998

1016
00:50:21,040 --> 00:50:24,480
Speaker 1: no Jj Stankovitz Today I'm Matt Taylor. So Casey, we

1017
00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:26,560
Speaker 1: were going to throw this to JJ, but since he

1018
00:50:26,719 --> 00:50:30,160
Speaker 1: is absent, we're going to task you the random thought

1019
00:50:30,160 --> 00:50:32,680
Speaker 1: of the week. Normally this is me. I'm out of

1020
00:50:32,800 --> 00:50:37,600
Speaker 1: random thoughts in terms of what I just mean, in

1021
00:50:37,680 --> 00:50:40,239
Speaker 1: terms of what's acceptable to be put on this podcast,

1022
00:50:40,320 --> 00:50:42,960
Speaker 1: because I have a lot of nooks and crannies and

1023
00:50:43,320 --> 00:50:46,800
Speaker 1: cavernous thoughts in my brain. Lara, you were last week, Casey,

1024
00:50:47,080 --> 00:50:49,000
Speaker 1: random thought of the week from you this week to

1025
00:50:49,000 --> 00:50:50,920
Speaker 1: close out here, I've got to be honest. I'm honored,

1026
00:50:50,960 --> 00:50:53,480
Speaker 1: and it's a perfect week because I have been asking

1027
00:50:53,560 --> 00:50:57,360
Speaker 1: this question for years and I never never get a

1028
00:50:57,400 --> 00:50:59,840
Speaker 1: good answer. So it popped up again at thanks You

1029
00:51:00,200 --> 00:51:02,480
Speaker 1: with Christmas ride around the Corner. It still applies. So

1030
00:51:03,160 --> 00:51:06,680
Speaker 1: every year at big holidays you have gatherings and it's

1031
00:51:06,719 --> 00:51:12,080
Speaker 1: always based around food. Okay, Thanksgiving you have turkey my family,

1032
00:51:12,200 --> 00:51:16,080
Speaker 1: Christmas it's ham. Okay, New Year's Eve you've got cabbage

1033
00:51:16,160 --> 00:51:19,479
Speaker 1: or black eyed peas or something. Yeah, my question, what

1034
00:51:19,640 --> 00:51:22,120
Speaker 1: is that a thing? It's like a tradition. Yeah, get

1035
00:51:22,120 --> 00:51:24,160
Speaker 1: away the bad, the bad luck. You eat things you

1036
00:51:24,160 --> 00:51:26,760
Speaker 1: would never eat. So yeah, we also eat my grandma

1037
00:51:26,800 --> 00:51:28,719
Speaker 1: the same one who had the little you know, die

1038
00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:30,799
Speaker 1: tribe on the mint julips. She would always hide a

1039
00:51:30,800 --> 00:51:33,439
Speaker 1: dime in the sauer kraut and whoever found the dime

1040
00:51:33,440 --> 00:51:36,120
Speaker 1: would get good luck. Yeah, I think that's a thing.

1041
00:51:36,400 --> 00:51:37,600
Speaker 1: I also think you would have like we would have

1042
00:51:37,680 --> 00:51:40,200
Speaker 1: like pork tenderloin. I think that's another thing you have

1043
00:51:40,520 --> 00:51:42,520
Speaker 1: on New Year's I've been burying my head in the

1044
00:51:42,680 --> 00:51:45,319
Speaker 1: sand on New Year's Eve for I guess thirty seven years.

1045
00:51:45,400 --> 00:51:47,120
Speaker 1: Where the hell have I do? Now? All right, but

1046
00:51:47,280 --> 00:51:49,680
Speaker 1: please continue? I'm sorry. It's to get to Mary Anne's

1047
00:51:49,719 --> 00:51:55,640
Speaker 1: a culture. So my big question is my family. We

1048
00:51:55,680 --> 00:51:58,680
Speaker 1: don't eat turkey, we don't eat ham, we don't eat

1049
00:51:58,719 --> 00:52:01,400
Speaker 1: cabbage or black eyed peas is any other day of

1050
00:52:01,440 --> 00:52:04,720
Speaker 1: the year. So why do we do this? When you gather,

1051
00:52:05,120 --> 00:52:07,680
Speaker 1: you find all these meals you eat so well that

1052
00:52:07,719 --> 00:52:10,719
Speaker 1: you eat throughout the entire year. Why do we one

1053
00:52:10,840 --> 00:52:13,280
Speaker 1: time a year ago, let's see who can make a turkey?

1054
00:52:13,640 --> 00:52:15,800
Speaker 1: Oh that turkey wasn't any So you just want to

1055
00:52:15,880 --> 00:52:20,880
Speaker 1: order a pizza dominant like like for me, like it's

1056
00:52:20,920 --> 00:52:24,120
Speaker 1: like a nice la something like like I love a

1057
00:52:24,120 --> 00:52:27,720
Speaker 1: good steak. Why don't we do steak? On o steak

1058
00:52:29,040 --> 00:52:31,640
Speaker 1: for me, oh do you well? For me, it's they

1059
00:52:31,680 --> 00:52:33,400
Speaker 1: always have turkey, and I never eat the turkey. I

1060
00:52:33,440 --> 00:52:35,440
Speaker 1: always eat the sides, and I love the sides. But

1061
00:52:35,480 --> 00:52:38,200
Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, let's have a main. Everybody likes it.

1062
00:52:38,360 --> 00:52:40,719
Speaker 1: I think that you just need to start hosting the

1063
00:52:40,760 --> 00:52:43,160
Speaker 1: holiday and set the rules. That's a good that's a good.

1064
00:52:43,200 --> 00:52:45,640
Speaker 1: See we hosted this year, and of course we did turkey.

1065
00:52:46,040 --> 00:52:48,480
Speaker 1: No no, he was We're doing it different. But be like,

1066
00:52:48,560 --> 00:52:51,120
Speaker 1: if if you want your turkey, you bring some, you know,

1067
00:52:51,200 --> 00:52:53,880
Speaker 1: a pack of your boar's head from the Kroger and

1068
00:52:53,920 --> 00:52:57,880
Speaker 1: you can have yourself old turkey sand We're having steak toast.

1069
00:52:58,160 --> 00:53:00,520
Speaker 1: There's a toaster you want to toasted. Yeah, I mean,

1070
00:53:01,719 --> 00:53:03,560
Speaker 1: I do agree. It mean, we obviously all know the

1071
00:53:03,600 --> 00:53:07,040

Speaker 1: and I'm really not a ham guy, right um. And

1074
00:53:11,719 --> 00:53:14,359

00:55:47,960 --> 00:55:49,480
Speaker 1: joking about getting a hot time. We were in Florida,

1123
00:55:49,480 --> 00:55:52,040

Speaker 1: get a hot dog. I couldn't believe it. What other

1127
00:55:59,680 --> 00:56:01,800

Speaker 1: three Thanksgiving Christmas and then like I said, New Year's

1133
00:56:21,880 --> 00:56:23,759
Speaker 1: just kind of the opposite of that, Like it's the

1134
00:56:23,800 --> 00:56:25,840
Speaker 1: reason you're doing is to get away bad luck stuff

1135
00:56:25,840 --> 00:56:27,759
Speaker 1: you don't ever eat. So you understand that maybe we're

1136
00:56:27,800 --> 00:56:30,120
Speaker 1: weird because on Christmas we don't really do dinner at

Speaker 1: like graze on all day, does that every Christmas morning?

1140
00:56:38,920 --> 00:56:41,480
Speaker 1: I think we usually order sushi at night or something

Speaker 1: like because they're all exhausted. It's like, yeah, still get
