Meanwhile, the Colts 66 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,400 Speaker 3: defense came to play early in the game. New York 67 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:25,320 Speaker 3: failed to get a first down on any of its 68 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 3: first five drives, punting four times and turning the ball 69 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:31,799 Speaker 3: over on downs, and on those first five possessions, the 70 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 3: Jets racked up just twenty nine yards on sixteen plays. 71 00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 3: But New York got things going there at the end 72 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 3: of the first half, and the Colts struggled to slow 73 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,080 Speaker 3: down the Jets in the middle of the game as 74 00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 3: New York put up a season best twenty seven points. 75 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:47,080 Speaker 3: But after the Colts took the lead late in the game, 76 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 3: the defense slammed the door quit he pay Forest Aaron 77 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 3: Rodgers to scramble out of the pocket on first down 78 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 3: and lateral the ball back to a teammate for a 79 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 3: major loss on a recovery with the Jets out of timeouts, 80 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 3: and then it was pay again on the next play, 81 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 3: sealing the win for the Colts with a walk off sack. 82 00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 3: Richardson gets the spotlight after Sunday's game, but it was 83 00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 3: a total team effort in New York. Josh Downs had 84 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:12,600 Speaker 3: five catches for eighty four yards and a touchdown. Quitty 85 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 3: Pay notched those two sacks, and kicker Matt Gay also 86 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:19,040 Speaker 3: came up big with three field goals of forty plus yards, 87 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 3: including a fifty six yarder in the third quarter. It 88 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:24,599 Speaker 3: was a much needed win for the Colts and they 89 00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:27,479 Speaker 3: remain alive in the AFC playoff hunt, just a game 90 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 3: out of the playoffs with six games to go.

I think it 113 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:26,920 Speaker 5: was huge. I think it was huge for him. I 114 00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:29,280 Speaker 5: think it was huge for our football team. Obviously. Anytime 115 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:31,080 Speaker 5: you can go on the road and win football games 116 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:32,320 Speaker 5: in this league, it's a huge job. 117 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 2: But you know what he was all over it really efficient, 118 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,520 Speaker 2: throwing the football, running the football obviously when we need 119 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,919 Speaker 2: a big time play called his number down there obviously, and. 120 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 5: He was able to get in the end zone. Yeah. 121 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 3: There's been a lot of dialogue around him the last 122 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:46,920 Speaker 3: couple of games, no question about that. How do you 123 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:48,920 Speaker 3: think he played? How do you think he bounced back. 124 00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 2: I think he bounced back tremendous. I mean, obviously what 125 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 2: he was able to do was phenomenal. And to be 126 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 2: able to, you know, lead a two minute drive at 127 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:59,600 Speaker 2: the end on the road was huge.

The intermediate 150 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:49,240 Speaker 3: throws yesterday were awesome. Really drove the ball in the 151 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 3: middle of the field. I think four completions over twenty yards. 152 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:55,240 Speaker 3: What went into that? More success in that department of 153 00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 3: the offense. 154 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:56,800 Speaker 5: I think it was huge. 155 00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:58,480 Speaker 2: I think part of it is, you know, just you know, 156 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:01,119 Speaker 2: the accuracy that he threw it with and obviously catching 157 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:02,760 Speaker 2: the right coverages were huge. We got some you know, 158 00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 2: Manna Man crossing routes to Alec Pierce in those situations, 159 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 2: and he layered those footballs right on target and you know, 160 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:10,680 Speaker 2: hit Pit over the middle on another one, and you know, 161 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:13,320 Speaker 2: taking the completions when they were there and being smart 162 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:15,680 Speaker 2: when they weren't there, and you know, credit to him 163 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:17,120 Speaker 2: in his preparation that he did all week. 164 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, the defense gives up twenty seven points, but they 165 00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:23,240 Speaker 3: were really good in long stretches, especially in that first half. 166 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 3: What'd you think of the defensive performance after you watch 167 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:26,560 Speaker 3: the film. 168 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 5: Again, it was pretty impressive. I'll tell you what. I 169 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 5: have five straight three and outs. I don't think I've 170 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,200 Speaker 5: ever been a part of that. It was awesome. 171 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:34,680 Speaker 2: To see those guys came ready to play. That first 172 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:38,000 Speaker 2: half was as dominant, you know as it gets. So overall, 173 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 2: those guys continuing to improve every single week. They're playing together. 174 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:43,920 Speaker 2: They're playing smart, physical football. 175 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 3: For sure, you know someone within the defense that's really 176 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 3: stepping up or you're just noticing his play as is 177 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 3: probably better said, but Jalen Jones multiple pass breakups again yesterday. 178 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 3: How has he developed in his second season? 179 00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:57,680 Speaker 2: You know, he's been phenomenal. I think it starts with 180 00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:00,440 Speaker 2: his mindset and his attitude on the way he plays 181 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 2: the game. He's a physical player, really sticky in coverage, 182 00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:07,200 Speaker 2: you know, and when the balls thrown his way, you know, 183 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:10,040 Speaker 2: he makes out the most of his opportunities. And he's 184 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:13,760 Speaker 2: been to continue to grow every single week the way 185 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:17,520 Speaker 2: he prepares, the way he practices. So it's been really 186 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 2: really good to see. 187 00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 3: And then on special teams Matt Gay three for three 188 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 3: three over forty fifty six yard or eighteen of his 189 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 3: last nineteen How important was he in the special teams 190 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 3: in a game like that when it's so close and 191 00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 3: you win. 192 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:30,960 Speaker 5: It by one, it was huge. 193 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 6: You know. 194 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 2: We always talk about and in every driving a kick 195 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:35,679 Speaker 2: and whether that's a field goal, you know, or a 196 00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 2: pat or sometimes you got a punt. But to have 197 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 2: those three field goals from him in that game, points 198 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 2: come from everywhere, So to get those nine points we're 199 00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:46,679 Speaker 2: huge obviously, you know, to help us win that football game. 200 00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:49,959 Speaker 3: All right, You've you've been publicly hard on yourself the 201 00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 3: last couple of weeks.

Shane sticking with us tonight. This 226 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:42,319 Speaker 3: is Colts Roundtable Live. Get the hashtag in on X 227 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:46,640 Speaker 3: with the hashtag Colts Roundtable. Lewis is up first. He's asking, Hey, coach, 228 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 3: how was the play calling different yesterday with richardson back? 229 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:52,839 Speaker 3: And are we less afraid to run him and have 230 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:54,720 Speaker 3: him take hits now going forward? 231 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 2: Obviously he opens it up, you know what I mean, 232 00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:58,679 Speaker 2: because he can run with the football obviously, so that 233 00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 2: helps us there and you can do a lot of 234 00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:03,199 Speaker 2: different things with him and JT in the backfield. So 235 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 2: obviously it's always a balance there with the quarterback that 236 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:08,839 Speaker 2: can run, but it definitely does help our offense. And 237 00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:11,000 Speaker 2: like we've talked about before with the quarterback run game, 238 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:12,719 Speaker 2: there's a time and a place to be smart with 239 00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 2: it and when to get down and when to take 240 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:16,280 Speaker 2: the hits. And obviously he had some around the goal line, 241 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:18,520 Speaker 2: you know, on the one two yard line where you know, 242 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:19,720 Speaker 2: we had to get in the end zone and ran 243 00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:22,080 Speaker 2: some guys over, which is you know, was impressive to see. 244 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, for sure. 245 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 3: All right, you kind of addressed this a little bit, 246 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:29,559 Speaker 3: but Matt is asking coach, what's your confidence level that 247 00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:32,080 Speaker 3: this game won't be a one hit wonder for Richardson. 248 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:35,280 Speaker 2: I feel really confident and because of his abilities and 249 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:37,600 Speaker 2: the person that he is. And again, it just goes 250 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 2: back to the work that we put in every week 251 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:42,599 Speaker 2: our football team, preparing the right way. We know we 252 00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:44,319 Speaker 2: got a hell of an opponent coming in here. You know, 253 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 2: they're probably the hottest team in the NFL. So we're 254 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:48,719 Speaker 2: looking forward to the challenge for sure, and especially to 255 00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:50,440 Speaker 2: get him at home in front of our home crowd 256 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:51,200 Speaker 2: is going to be huge. 257 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:53,959 Speaker 3: All right, a few more Isaac is asking do you 258 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:56,200 Speaker 3: think we're going to be able to tailor the playbook 259 00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:58,960 Speaker 3: to Richardson in the long term or does he still 260 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:01,720 Speaker 3: need to learn the drive back pocket passing game when 261 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:02,600 Speaker 3: it's all said and done. 262 00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, obviously you want to taylor the playbook to your quarterback, 263 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 2: you know what I mean, That's what drives your offense 264 00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:08,520 Speaker 2: is doing what the quarterback does. 265 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 5: Well. 266 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, and so every week you go through that process 267 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 2: of trying to put him in position, you know, to 268 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:14,319 Speaker 2: be successful on Sundays. 269 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:14,679 Speaker 1: All right. 270 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 3: Last one this is from Michael.

Joe, welcome to the show. How 345 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:40,560 Speaker 3: are you on this Monday night following a victory for 346 00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:43,720 Speaker 3: the Colts over the Jets? My friend, man, it's. 347 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:45,760 Speaker 4: It's great to be on here Monday evening with you 348 00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:48,240 Speaker 4: and coach and after a win. It's been a few 349 00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 4: weeks coming, but it's amazing just the feeling that you 350 00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 4: have really all day coming off for a win versus loss, 351 00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:58,320 Speaker 4: and coach knows that well. And it's the same twenty 352 00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:00,120 Speaker 4: four hour rule and there's a bunch of stuff that 353 00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:02,400 Speaker 4: we can get better at. But man, it's great to 354 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:04,800 Speaker 4: be back on that winning track, just especially how the 355 00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 4: last you know, three weeks went with you know, Richardson 356 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:11,480 Speaker 4: getting benched and then Joe Flacco and him not playing 357 00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 4: well and going back to Richardson. But yeah, you know, 358 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 4: some credit to the Colts and that locker room and 359 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:20,960 Speaker 4: the coaching staff, and you know, I think the media 360 00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 4: they want all these answers every time, and his coach knows, 361 00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:26,960 Speaker 4: you know, whatever people are saying publicly, the real conversations 362 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:30,400 Speaker 4: are going on behind closed doors. But it's just a 363 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:32,600 Speaker 4: real positive to me that we're at this spot now. 364 00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:34,560 Speaker 4: And Richardson was benched for a couple of weeks, but 365 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:37,080 Speaker 4: he came back and had by far his best game 366 00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:39,080 Speaker 4: in the Colt's uniform. So I think there's a lot 367 00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:42,040 Speaker 4: of excitement, and I think the arrow going up right 368 00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:45,120 Speaker 4: on him and this team collectively is really exciting. 369 00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, Colts are five and six, big win yesterday, Rick 370 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:51,600 Speaker 3: snapping that three game losing skit. How you doing tonight, 371 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:53,280 Speaker 3: held up there in Cicero. 372 00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:55,440 Speaker 6: Yeah, we're doing well. A little bit of rainy up 373 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:58,120 Speaker 6: here in Cicero. No no chop. We're out today. I'll 374 00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:02,280 Speaker 6: be later, but I don't get in that wet roads 375 00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:06,680 Speaker 6: with those small tire patches. But you know what, I 376 00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 6: feel really good, you know, I you know, my view 377 00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:12,360 Speaker 6: of this whole thing going forward was, you know, this 378 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 6: was the first game of a seven game series here, 379 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:20,200 Speaker 6: seven game season, which is very manageable, but in essence, 380 00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:24,080 Speaker 6: every single game has to be considered a single game 381 00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 6: elimination like you do in basketball or you know, sports 382 00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:31,440 Speaker 6: like that. And you know, basically, you know, to get 383 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:34,120 Speaker 6: one is such a good feeling. I mean, you go 384 00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 6: in and you get one, so that's one down, You're 385 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:38,760 Speaker 6: one to oh, you know, and now you come back 386 00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 6: in the next you know, the next two capsule, you know, 387 00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 6: and you're gonna go one and oh again. And I mean, 388 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:47,320 Speaker 6: just but you have to play with that intensity of 389 00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 6: that single game elimination. And we really did, I thought, 390 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:53,800 Speaker 6: and I'll get into my take, but I was really 391 00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:58,560 Speaker 6: impressed the way our team was prepared and the physical 392 00:16:58,640 --> 00:16:59,840 Speaker 6: intensity they came out with. 393 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:02,160 Speaker 3: Yep, absolutely, all right, we got a lot on the 394 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:04,119 Speaker 3: docket here the rest of the way with you until 395 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:07,600 Speaker 3: seven tonight, We're gonna lead off our roundtable discussion and 396 00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:10,640 Speaker 3: take a deep dive into the film breakdown here talking 397 00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:12,960 Speaker 3: about they win over the Jets for the Colts. We 398 00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:14,760 Speaker 3: do that here on this first segment. We call it 399 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:15,560 Speaker 3: the tail of the tape. 400 00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:22,200 Speaker 5: Cool baby Grayson, hell today, Okay, talk. 401 00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:22,879 Speaker 4: About to go Pallas. 402 00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:24,280 Speaker 2: Bang bang, play bang bang. 403 00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:26,399 Speaker 1: Keep the hammer down, all right, keep talking to one 404 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 1: another man to clean it up. 405 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 5: That's all. 406 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:34,000 Speaker 3: Get ready, get righty. Tale of the Tape time a 407 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:36,480 Speaker 3: review of the game film. The Colts found a way 408 00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:38,679 Speaker 3: to get it done. They led thirteen to seven at 409 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:41,000 Speaker 3: the half, found a way to win twenty eight to 410 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:44,280 Speaker 3: twenty seven despite being outscored twenty to fifteen in the 411 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:47,520 Speaker 3: second half. Defense didn't give up a first down until 412 00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:49,840 Speaker 3: two minutes to go in the second quarter, and they 413 00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:52,440 Speaker 3: recorded that timely stop late in the game that forced 414 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:55,320 Speaker 3: the Jets into a field goal. Anthony Richardson, as you 415 00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:58,080 Speaker 3: guys said, had by far his most impressive day as 416 00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:01,480 Speaker 3: a cult, matched a career high with two rushing touchdowns 417 00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:04,800 Speaker 3: and engineered that game winning drive and the Colt snap 418 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:07,200 Speaker 3: of three game skid and they stay in the hunt 419 00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:10,280 Speaker 3: in the AFC playoff picture. So Joe, that's the setup 420 00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:12,359 Speaker 3: before is yours. What else do you have on the 421 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:14,800 Speaker 3: Colts here in the tail the tape? Big takeaways from 422 00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:16,560 Speaker 3: watching the game film and a win for the Colts 423 00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:17,160 Speaker 3: over New York. 424 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 4: Well, Matt, given the team was out in the Big 425 00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:23,280 Speaker 4: Apple and you and coach you were probably on Broadway 426 00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:25,760 Speaker 4: the night before the game, I'm gonna do a little 427 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 4: Broadway tape here for my tail to tape. I got that, yes, yes, 428 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:32,159 Speaker 4: So to me, this game was a tale of three acts. 429 00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:35,040 Speaker 4: Act one, we're here to play, Act two, we're gonna 430 00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:37,560 Speaker 4: let you back in, and Act three we're gonna shut 431 00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:39,520 Speaker 4: the door. And I'm going to go through each of 432 00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:42,320 Speaker 4: these individually. But when I say we're here to play, 433 00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 4: we were ready to go. We were well prepared, we 434 00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:48,240 Speaker 4: were well coached, and the team had an intensity and 435 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:51,480 Speaker 4: a team spired about them that I haven't seen, you know, 436 00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:54,919 Speaker 4: in a while. And to me, you know, the harder 437 00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:57,320 Speaker 4: you hit and the better you tackle, to me, really 438 00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:01,440 Speaker 4: shows how prepared you are mentally, emotionally, you know, for 439 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:03,639 Speaker 4: the game. And I thought we were tackling, we were 440 00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:06,520 Speaker 4: swarming the ball, we were blocking, we were hitting people, 441 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:09,639 Speaker 4: and we were executing, and I mean we dominated the 442 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:12,720 Speaker 4: first you know, twenty four minutes of that ball game. 443 00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:15,080 Speaker 4: I mean five straight three and outs for the defense, 444 00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 4: the offense. We got a thirteen to nothing lead, and 445 00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:20,399 Speaker 4: I'm thinking, man, we get one more score here. If 446 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:22,119 Speaker 4: we had got a touchdown instead of field goal, win 447 00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:25,159 Speaker 4: up three scores, this game could be over. But then 448 00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 4: Act two was, you know, we'll let you back in. 449 00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:29,880 Speaker 4: And you know, the Jets, they controlled the middle part 450 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:33,240 Speaker 4: of that ballgame and really into laid into the second half, 451 00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 4: and you know, we got away from some of the 452 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:37,159 Speaker 4: things we were doing. Defensively, we were letting up you know, 453 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:41,560 Speaker 4: some third and fourteen, second and fourteen completions. Offensively, we 454 00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:44,400 Speaker 4: had two drives in. Then you know that third fourth 455 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:46,560 Speaker 4: quarter where we had three and out and we had 456 00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:48,919 Speaker 4: negative plays, We had a negative six and a negative 457 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:51,240 Speaker 4: seven back to back, and the Jets had control of 458 00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:53,359 Speaker 4: that game and things were coming off the rails. But 459 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 4: what I'm really really proud of this team, and I'm 460 00:19:56,560 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 4: really proud of this quarterback is Act three. You know, 461 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 4: we're going to shut the door on you. Two touchdown 462 00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:04,560 Speaker 4: drives and the most critical part of the game and 463 00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 4: the most critical part of the season that ar led. 464 00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:10,879 Speaker 4: And you know, especially that last touchdown drive. When we score, 465 00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:13,200 Speaker 4: we leave him less than a minute off the clock. 466 00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:15,679 Speaker 4: And but even part of me is like, okay, they 467 00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:17,879 Speaker 4: got forty six seconds. They got a Hall of Famer. 468 00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:19,960 Speaker 4: On the other side is at too much time. But 469 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:22,560 Speaker 4: our defense shut the door and we did, you know, 470 00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:25,560 Speaker 4: with the penetration with the sack, and you know, can't 471 00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:28,560 Speaker 4: stay enough about Richardson. I think it was his best 472 00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:31,280 Speaker 4: overall performance. I think he came back a different guy, 473 00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:34,960 Speaker 4: you know, especially just mentally, emotionally and leading the team. 474 00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:37,639 Speaker 4: And you saw the team get behind him, and it 475 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:39,639 Speaker 4: was just great to win the game, but great to 476 00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:42,680 Speaker 4: win in the fashion that we won. Because coach knows 477 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:44,720 Speaker 4: this and I'll toss it over to you, but you know, 478 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:46,639 Speaker 4: you can win a ball game and it's great. It's 479 00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:48,400 Speaker 4: a win, and the win call him. But the way 480 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 4: that we won this football game, I really think can 481 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:52,960 Speaker 4: be a springboard for this team. There's been a lot 482 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:55,280 Speaker 4: of negative media around him over the last couple of weeks. 483 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:57,800 Speaker 4: I kind of think we bottomed out after last week. 484 00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:00,920 Speaker 4: Guys were Aaron Grievers's publicly, which I like because it 485 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:03,680 Speaker 4: brought some accountability to the team. But I really think 486 00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:07,160 Speaker 4: the way we won this game on the road. Richardson 487 00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:10,640 Speaker 4: leading the touchdown drive defense, closing them out. Complimentary football, 488 00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:12,600 Speaker 4: great all day. I know we'll get in the special 489 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:14,760 Speaker 4: teams and how good they were with Gay, But I 490 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:16,760 Speaker 4: think this can be a springboard for the rest of 491 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:19,760 Speaker 4: the season in these last six games that the Colts got. 492 00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:22,280 Speaker 3: Wow, the three acts right there from Joe Wrights. 493 00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:22,879 Speaker 2: You like that? 494 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:25,159 Speaker 3: Yeah, that was really good man. I'm you got, you 495 00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:27,959 Speaker 3: got the I got goosebumps, I got the hair standing 496 00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:30,240 Speaker 3: up on my on my arms right now, Well done, 497 00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:33,760 Speaker 3: right there, Rick Vinci, that's the playbill from from Wicked. 498 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:35,920 Speaker 3: I guess on Saturday night? What else you got from 499 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:36,800 Speaker 3: your tail of the tape? 500 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 6: There you go. First of all, I thought it was 501 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:41,040 Speaker 6: really a fun game for us to do. It was 502 00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:43,760 Speaker 6: a it was you know, you use this term moment time. 503 00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:46,960 Speaker 6: It was eventful. I mean there were huge swings in 504 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:49,720 Speaker 6: the game. You know, it went down to a play here, 505 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:52,520 Speaker 6: play there, end up pulling out to win. It just 506 00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:54,120 Speaker 6: was a lot of fun to do. But I felt 507 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:58,080 Speaker 6: like yesterday in New York, it is more than a win. 508 00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 6: It's a defining moment for this franchise. It was a 509 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:07,639 Speaker 6: necessary win. In keeping the twenty four season alive. But 510 00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:11,720 Speaker 6: more importantly, I think it was the real coming out 511 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:16,360 Speaker 6: party for our franchise hopes in our franchise future. And Anthony, 512 00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:20,720 Speaker 6: I think the Colts provided him yesterday and I talked 513 00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 6: about this all week, so I'll take a little bow 514 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:27,680 Speaker 6: and being prophetic, they provided him with a game plan 515 00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 6: that you have to use at this stage in his career. 516 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:35,360 Speaker 6: You've got to run him, You've got to play Saturday 517 00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:39,120 Speaker 6: afternoon football with him, and the Sunday afternoon will come. 518 00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:43,280 Speaker 6: They ran him early, They ran Jonathan early. They ran 519 00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:46,679 Speaker 6: two screens in the first quarter, they ran two boots 520 00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:51,280 Speaker 6: in the first quarter, ran him on seven designers. And 521 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:54,560 Speaker 6: so what they did, even though they didn't have big numbers, 522 00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:59,080 Speaker 6: they basically established a method or an identity. This is 523 00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:01,040 Speaker 6: what we're going to be, Jets. We're gonna be a 524 00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:05,000 Speaker 6: Saturday afternoon football. And what they did is, as the 525 00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:08,119 Speaker 6: game went on, they forced the Jets. You could just 526 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:11,240 Speaker 6: feel it. You could see him creeping, you could see 527 00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 6: less double high and single high, and you could see 528 00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 6: their defense stepping up and getting tighter to the box. 529 00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:22,119 Speaker 6: And so what that did was then opened up the 530 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:25,359 Speaker 6: third facet that I was hoping for, and that was 531 00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:28,720 Speaker 6: the play action game. And the play action game is 532 00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:33,080 Speaker 6: vital to Anthony, but it's nothing if you don't establish 533 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:35,679 Speaker 6: the fact that you're gonna run it now. The reason 534 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:38,920 Speaker 6: the play action game is in his advantage right now 535 00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:42,639 Speaker 6: is that you freeze the linebackers. You get rid of 536 00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:46,000 Speaker 6: that cloudy underneath coverage that he has trouble reading at 537 00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 6: this stage, which is normal. And so what happens is 538 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:53,240 Speaker 6: they're up there sucking to play the run and either 539 00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:56,520 Speaker 6: in man coverage or zone, but there's nothing underneath and 540 00:23:56,680 --> 00:24:00,399 Speaker 6: he's able to see those over routes develop. You know, 541 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:04,800 Speaker 6: Pierce Pitman, he kept he hit those critical over routes 542 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:07,920 Speaker 6: with the play action and in that sense, you know, 543 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:10,040 Speaker 6: all of a sudden and he just shot it out 544 00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:12,960 Speaker 6: there and then you know he brought the physicality. 545 00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:13,520 Speaker 2: You know. 546 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:17,480 Speaker 6: Normally, normally the physicality is brought on by a defensive 547 00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:19,840 Speaker 6: player or some big hit. This is one of the 548 00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:24,600 Speaker 6: few times where the quarterbacks set the tone basically from 549 00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:28,760 Speaker 6: a physicality standpoint, but more importantly, the most important thing 550 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:33,160 Speaker 6: to take away three things really the sixty seven percent completion, 551 00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:36,160 Speaker 6: you know, the twenty for thirty and it's actually better 552 00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:38,359 Speaker 6: than that because a couple three of them were throwaways. 553 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:42,639 Speaker 6: The three he accounted for three dd tds himself and 554 00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:46,560 Speaker 6: no interceptions. That's what you're looking for. That that's the 555 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:48,680 Speaker 6: part of the game. The rest of it will be there. 556 00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:50,640 Speaker 6: That's the part of it that's going to be there. 557 00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 6: And I would say Colts fans, you're gonna be in 558 00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:56,440 Speaker 6: for some fun with this kid. I've never ever lost 559 00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:59,600 Speaker 6: faith in him. I think the sky's the limits still 560 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:02,600 Speaker 6: do always have and thank god he's back in there. 561 00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:07,760 Speaker 6: The defense continues to be a roller coaster. For twenty 562 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:11,720 Speaker 6: eight minutes, you couldn't get an inch on them. I 563 00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 6: mean they shut him down. They didn't have a first 564 00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:19,200 Speaker 6: down for twenty eight minutes, absolutely dominated the game. Then 565 00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 6: they got soft, which they tend to do. And this 566 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:24,840 Speaker 6: is going to be a learning experience format sometime because 567 00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:27,160 Speaker 6: it really almost cost him the game, because it cost 568 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:30,640 Speaker 6: them defensive momentum. They went into that prevent cover two. 569 00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:34,639 Speaker 6: Rogers goes down. They score all of a sudden what 570 00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:36,600 Speaker 6: looked like, as Joe said, was going to be a 571 00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:40,600 Speaker 6: rout of routes is thirteen to seven at the half. 572 00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:42,879 Speaker 6: They go in at that midpoint and all of a 573 00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:46,560 Speaker 6: sudden they got momentum. And then what really happens is 574 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:48,879 Speaker 6: all of a sudden, you lost that momentum. And for 575 00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 6: the next thirty minutes, from two minutes to the first 576 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:53,800 Speaker 6: half till two minutes to the end of the game, 577 00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:58,359 Speaker 6: this bad offense scored twenty seven points in thirty minutes. 578 00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:01,520 Speaker 6: And so you know, that's just it's crazy. Now, to 579 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:05,680 Speaker 6: their credit, to their credit, after that long drive, that 580 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:07,520 Speaker 6: could have put us away if they get a field 581 00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 6: if they get a touchdown, and they decided to kick 582 00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:13,000 Speaker 6: the field goal on fourth and one, because you know, 583 00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:15,960 Speaker 6: they stopped, they stop what's his name hauled a yard 584 00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:20,119 Speaker 6: short on that checkdown. If they make that touchdown or 585 00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:23,920 Speaker 6: the game's over. So in that sense, the stop in 586 00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:25,800 Speaker 6: the forcing of the field goal to keep it the 587 00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:29,920 Speaker 6: five was absolutely incredible in that sense, and it made 588 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:32,720 Speaker 6: all the difference in the world. And then of course 589 00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:36,040 Speaker 6: after the great two minute drive, the great two minute 590 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:38,760 Speaker 6: drive by ar five, and I don't think what people 591 00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:43,000 Speaker 6: are realizing is he not only makes a great throat 592 00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:45,639 Speaker 6: to pierce, but if you look at it quickly, and 593 00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:48,200 Speaker 6: of course it's against my most hated coverage of all 594 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:51,359 Speaker 6: time four poms. They cost themselves the game with that 595 00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:55,560 Speaker 6: covers four poms. But what ar did a good job 596 00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:58,760 Speaker 6: and nobody's talking about, is he made that pump. Fact, 597 00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:02,359 Speaker 6: he made that quick pump fake to the flat and 598 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:06,920 Speaker 6: that froze sauce gardener right there. And by the time 599 00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:10,119 Speaker 6: Mills tried to get over, he threw that rocket in 600 00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:13,160 Speaker 6: there to pierce. But he really did a great job 601 00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:15,920 Speaker 6: with a quick pump and that froze the corner. Look 602 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:18,719 Speaker 6: at it really close. It's really pretty cool. And then 603 00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:20,639 Speaker 6: you know, of course, I thought the offense did a 604 00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:23,200 Speaker 6: great job to get down and score, and they took 605 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:25,200 Speaker 6: just enough time. I would have liked to take a 606 00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:27,840 Speaker 6: little bit more, but they took just enough time. I 607 00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:30,560 Speaker 6: think they left him with forty seconds and no timeouts. 608 00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:33,840 Speaker 6: So and then the Coats ended up with a walkoff sack, 609 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:36,680 Speaker 6: which which really meant you know, in the end that 610 00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:39,240 Speaker 6: and of course, the special teams was really good. Gay 611 00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:43,560 Speaker 6: was outstanding. Our coverage, our kick coverage was great all day. 612 00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 2: You know. 613 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 6: I also thought our returners did pretty well. I mean, 614 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,199 Speaker 6: all those kids had stepped in there, including Goodson. They 615 00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:52,240 Speaker 6: really tried to slash. So at the end of the day. 616 00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:55,760 Speaker 6: You know, we did what we haven't done. Okay, we 617 00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:59,280 Speaker 6: played a sixty full minute imperfect, no question about that. 618 00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:03,480 Speaker 6: But in the end, when it really came down to it, 619 00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:07,760 Speaker 6: the last four minutes of the game, the Colts won 620 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:10,920 Speaker 6: the game. They finished the game, and they won the 621 00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:13,080 Speaker 6: game in the last four minutes. 622 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:16,480 Speaker 3: Indeed they did.

What impressed you 679 00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:14,000 Speaker 3: the most about Anthony Richardson on Sunday? 680 00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:17,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, two things. I think just from a schematic perspective, 681 00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:21,760 Speaker 4: you hit on it. He was more accurate and in 682 00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 4: the fourth quarter when he needed to make throws, he 683 00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:26,200 Speaker 4: did him. So One he was making the right reads. 684 00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:28,360 Speaker 4: Two he was putting the ball on the money. And 685 00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:30,440 Speaker 4: I know there was a lot of questions about his accuracy. 686 00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:32,520 Speaker 4: And you know, the last time you know he was 687 00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:34,280 Speaker 4: out there, he was ten to thirty two against the 688 00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:37,080 Speaker 4: Texan So his accuracy late in the game, that would 689 00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:39,120 Speaker 4: be the first thing. And then just from a thirty 690 00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:42,760 Speaker 4: thousand foot view, just the way he had command and 691 00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:46,080 Speaker 4: his presence. And you know, I believe competitive greatness as 692 00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:48,200 Speaker 4: being at your best when your best is needed. And 693 00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:50,600 Speaker 4: what was there any question we were going to score 694 00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:52,720 Speaker 4: the ball there when we got down on the red zone. 695 00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:55,400 Speaker 4: I didn't because I think that's just his dynamic skill 696 00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:57,000 Speaker 4: set and be able to run the ball and shaned 697 00:31:57,000 --> 00:31:59,280 Speaker 4: out up a great play there. When you just ran that, 698 00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:01,760 Speaker 4: you know, QB sweep left there and pulled those big 699 00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:04,719 Speaker 4: linemen out in front. But I just thought his accuracy 700 00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:09,360 Speaker 4: and then just his competitive greatness, his presence, his leadership. 701 00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:12,080 Speaker 4: You know, I just thought, we're really outstanding and you 702 00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:14,800 Speaker 4: can see the team getting behind him, and I just 703 00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:18,200 Speaker 4: think that galvanizes so much for this franchise and Rick, 704 00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:18,800 Speaker 4: for you, what. 705 00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:22,600 Speaker 3: Is most sustainable from Richardson's performance yesterday? 706 00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:24,680 Speaker 6: Well, I think a couple of things. First of all, 707 00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:27,640 Speaker 6: I think the coaching staff figured out the identity. First 708 00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:29,680 Speaker 6: of all, you know, we just for some reason, we've 709 00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:32,520 Speaker 6: lost our way with Richardson. We started out as a 710 00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 6: rookie playing this way. This is an end. I don't 711 00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:37,080 Speaker 6: know if we were trying to protect him or why 712 00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:39,480 Speaker 6: you can't protect him. You got to let him play 713 00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:42,200 Speaker 6: like the Saturday game because that's who he is and 714 00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:45,400 Speaker 6: that sets the table for everything else. You know, I 715 00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:49,520 Speaker 6: think number one, this is what must be sustainable because 716 00:32:49,560 --> 00:32:53,120 Speaker 6: the kid, the kid is special, he has special tools. 717 00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:56,400 Speaker 6: I think the one hundred and sixty five passer rating 718 00:32:56,800 --> 00:33:00,400 Speaker 6: and the sixty seven percent completion is what you're going 719 00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:02,760 Speaker 6: to be striving for. This is what you want with 720 00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:06,120 Speaker 6: him and this is the biggest area of improvement, but 721 00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:09,520 Speaker 6: you have to help him. Yesterday they helped him. They 722 00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:13,000 Speaker 6: had throws he could make early screens, boots and when 723 00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:17,000 Speaker 6: those play actions came, basically they gave him wide open 724 00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:20,200 Speaker 6: windows to be able to see it. He doesn't feel 725 00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:23,560 Speaker 6: it yet. He's not a kid that searches the field yet, 726 00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:27,960 Speaker 6: so you have to run concepts that create openings that 727 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:32,160 Speaker 6: he can see coming open. He will eventually get through that, 728 00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:35,000 Speaker 6: he will evolve through that, but at this time you 729 00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:38,400 Speaker 6: have to help it, which they did yesterday. So I 730 00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:41,440 Speaker 6: think that's the biggest goal. That's the goal, is the 731 00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:44,840 Speaker 6: sixty seven percent and the one on sixty five because 732 00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:48,040 Speaker 6: that is the goal of consistency because in this league 733 00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:50,400 Speaker 6: it's all about consistency and you got to renew your 734 00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:54,240 Speaker 6: performance every week. It's not nothing is automatically renewed. You 735 00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:57,160 Speaker 6: have to renew it every week. And then I think 736 00:33:57,240 --> 00:33:59,200 Speaker 6: the other thing he brings to it if you'll let 737 00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:01,760 Speaker 6: him play, if you'll let him be him, is he 738 00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:06,200 Speaker 6: brings the physical component like no one I've seen at quarterback. 739 00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:08,840 Speaker 6: I've seen guys that can avoid, I see guys that 740 00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:11,320 Speaker 6: can make a big play, and I know, you know, 741 00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:15,200 Speaker 6: Josh Allen has some physicality. Of course Lamar can avoid, 742 00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:18,480 Speaker 6: but this kid is something different. Now. I mean, he 743 00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:23,320 Speaker 6: knocked those two defensive backs in the never Never Land yesterday, 744 00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:26,280 Speaker 6: they got knocked across the Hudson River. To be honest 745 00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:28,160 Speaker 6: with you, by the end of that day, there was 746 00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:30,640 Speaker 6: gonna be a lot of business decisions made and the 747 00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:33,560 Speaker 6: more they watch tape that will be made. And the 748 00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:37,560 Speaker 6: thing that you also miss is he gets rid of 749 00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:41,040 Speaker 6: the ball with people hanging on him. He is so 750 00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:45,800 Speaker 6: physically strong. It is an absolute sensational play. And this 751 00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:49,200 Speaker 6: was a critical first down in the in the second 752 00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:51,960 Speaker 6: to the last drive that he hits downs and then 753 00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:56,279 Speaker 6: downs himself. Makes a good getaway play, but Clements is 754 00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:59,440 Speaker 6: all over him. I mean, I'm not I don't think 755 00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:02,280 Speaker 6: there's an other quarterback in the NFL that can actually 756 00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:05,920 Speaker 6: make that throw with Clements totally. You know, in the 757 00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:07,640 Speaker 6: old days, I would have been in the grass, to 758 00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:11,520 Speaker 6: be honest with you. And it's just those things and 759 00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:14,520 Speaker 6: I just feel like that the kid, you know, I 760 00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:18,439 Speaker 6: think the kid is a terrific kid, despite a little 761 00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:21,520 Speaker 6: bit of shadows that's been placed on him. And I'm 762 00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:23,400 Speaker 6: not buying that. I think he's a great kid. The 763 00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:26,040 Speaker 6: other thing that I think, the reason I think it's 764 00:35:26,239 --> 00:35:30,440 Speaker 6: disguised a limit is he just doesn't have unicorm athletic skills. 765 00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:33,080 Speaker 6: He has really good quarterback skills. I mean, he has 766 00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:36,560 Speaker 6: a terrific release and he and basically has got a 767 00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:39,480 Speaker 6: good delivery. So really what he needs is just that 768 00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:43,319 Speaker 6: day in day out play. He's just got to play 769 00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:46,279 Speaker 6: week after week after week. And when you you know, 770 00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:49,000 Speaker 6: when you picked him forth, you kind of had to 771 00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:51,440 Speaker 6: know that you had had the courage of your convictions 772 00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:55,040 Speaker 6: to stay with him, because what you're really thinking is 773 00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:58,080 Speaker 6: by twenty five and twenty six and twenty seven, all 774 00:35:58,120 --> 00:35:59,480 Speaker 6: of a sudden, you got a guy that can take 775 00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:00,520 Speaker 6: you to the pro almos LAMB. 776 00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:03,160 Speaker 3: That's Rick Venturi. And this is that's what I'm talking 777 00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:06,200 Speaker 3: about here on Colts Round Table Live. Let's talk about 778 00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:09,920 Speaker 3: the defense. They set the tone early, forced five straight 779 00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:13,040 Speaker 3: three and ounce to open the game the Rogers led Jets. 780 00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:15,680 Speaker 3: They had just twenty nine yards on sixteen plays on 781 00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:19,440 Speaker 3: their first five possessions, and once Anthony Richardson gave the 782 00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:22,160 Speaker 3: Colts the lead late in the game, the pass rush 783 00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:25,240 Speaker 3: closed the door Quitty Pay had a couple of pressures 784 00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:27,719 Speaker 3: late in the game, including the walk off sack on 785 00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:31,239 Speaker 3: the final play. So Joe, the Colts defense, they were 786 00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:33,880 Speaker 3: in attack mode and set the tone early. That's what 787 00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:36,960 Speaker 3: I'm talking about. What went into the Colts defense being 788 00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:39,520 Speaker 3: so successful for over half of that game. 789 00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:41,640 Speaker 4: Well, I think first we were ready to play. And 790 00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:43,560 Speaker 4: again I mentioned it earlier in the show. When I 791 00:36:43,600 --> 00:36:46,560 Speaker 4: think about how ready a team is physically, mentally, emotionally, 792 00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:49,840 Speaker 4: I watch how the offensive line and the receivers are 793 00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:52,880 Speaker 4: blocking on offense, and I watch how we're tackling and 794 00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:54,920 Speaker 4: swarming to the ball on defense, and we were all 795 00:36:54,960 --> 00:36:57,720 Speaker 4: over the field. It felt like there were thirteen fourteen guys, 796 00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:00,200 Speaker 4: you know, for that first half. And I think our 797 00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:02,360 Speaker 4: guys were playing tight coverage. And I think when you 798 00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:04,959 Speaker 4: think about Jones, you think about Womack, you mean about 799 00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:07,239 Speaker 4: Kenny Moore. I think those guys have the skill sets 800 00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:09,720 Speaker 4: to do it. We were getting them after them up front. 801 00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:12,520 Speaker 4: I mean people are realizing now, I think ninety and 802 00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:14,719 Speaker 4: ninety nine Boulevard up there in the middle, you ain't 803 00:37:14,760 --> 00:37:16,600 Speaker 4: running on those guys, and they're trying to get cute 804 00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:19,200 Speaker 4: with Cocklin and running that fourth and one, you know, 805 00:37:19,360 --> 00:37:21,759 Speaker 4: tight end, sneak up the middle, shut down the first 806 00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:23,799 Speaker 4: drive of the game, that third and three shut down 807 00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:26,800 Speaker 4: on breeze Hall. I mean that was huge shortyarded situation 808 00:37:26,880 --> 00:37:28,239 Speaker 4: getting off the field. So I just think we were 809 00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:30,400 Speaker 4: ready in all facets of the game, and that just 810 00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:32,759 Speaker 4: tells me we were well prepared, we were hungry, and 811 00:37:32,880 --> 00:37:34,719 Speaker 4: we were motivated coming into the week. 812 00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:37,160 Speaker 3: Yep, Rick and I know this answer for you, but 813 00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:41,480 Speaker 3: for the sake of discussion and conversation, it appears the 814 00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:44,880 Speaker 3: defense at times is starting to turn the corner, but 815 00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:47,600 Speaker 3: not obviously throughout the course of a full sixty minutes. 816 00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:51,000 Speaker 3: What else is left for this team to be completely 817 00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:54,440 Speaker 3: dominant for an entire game, much like they were for 818 00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:56,880 Speaker 3: a majority of that first half yesterday. 819 00:37:57,160 --> 00:38:00,279 Speaker 6: Well, I would say, well, first of all, one of 820 00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:02,840 Speaker 6: the reasons that they're better, there's there's this, there's a 821 00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:06,880 Speaker 6: few key reason personnel wise. First of all, there's been 822 00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:10,120 Speaker 6: a big change since Buckner has been back. And also 823 00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:14,960 Speaker 6: yesterday they played Buckner and Grover a lot more than normal, 824 00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:18,960 Speaker 6: a lot not all that rotation. You keep Buckner and 825 00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:22,399 Speaker 6: Grover in there, make sure they're in shape. I think 826 00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:26,320 Speaker 6: I think Ray Kwon Davis that I nicknamed Reese yesterday 827 00:38:26,680 --> 00:38:32,120 Speaker 6: that actually actually he's the one guy you can put 828 00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:35,160 Speaker 6: in there on first down and be really solid on 829 00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:38,160 Speaker 6: the run, and that makes such a big difference. I 830 00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:41,880 Speaker 6: think those guys interior wise have made, you know, obviously 831 00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:44,960 Speaker 6: a big difference. I think the hidden two guys that 832 00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:48,000 Speaker 6: have made you know, Kenny always plays at a really 833 00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:50,799 Speaker 6: high level, and he was ready yesterday, but the two 834 00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:53,120 Speaker 6: guys that have also had a big impact on the 835 00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:56,200 Speaker 6: last few weeks. I thought Jones was tremendous. You know, 836 00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:57,600 Speaker 6: I gave him the game ball, and then after I 837 00:38:57,680 --> 00:38:59,800 Speaker 6: watched the tape this morning, I was really happy that 838 00:38:59,880 --> 00:39:02,080 Speaker 6: I gave him the game ball. I mean, he was 839 00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:06,120 Speaker 6: all over Wilson. Wilson had fourteen yards and we played 840 00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:09,800 Speaker 6: so aggressive in that first half. Our corners sat on 841 00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:12,480 Speaker 6: people when we blitzed, we were all over him. Womack 842 00:39:12,520 --> 00:39:15,080 Speaker 6: had a big third and nine stop where he came 843 00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:18,080 Speaker 6: up and got him. And I think the corner play 844 00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:21,160 Speaker 6: and those two big guys inside have made a big difference. 845 00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:24,720 Speaker 6: I think what kills this is schematically. We get soft. 846 00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:29,840 Speaker 6: We don't sustain aggressive schematic defense all day long. I 847 00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:32,680 Speaker 6: mean to give the Jets, and I know we want 848 00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:34,200 Speaker 6: to be so happy with the win, to give the 849 00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:37,520 Speaker 6: Jets twenty seven points in thirty minutes. They haven't scored 850 00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:40,640 Speaker 6: twenty seven points all year. Get real on that. And 851 00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:44,120 Speaker 6: what happens is when you lose a little bomentum and 852 00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:46,960 Speaker 6: you're not just keep coming and coming and coming. It 853 00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:50,520 Speaker 6: almost cost us the freaking game. But I do really 854 00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:53,600 Speaker 6: like the fact that we're playing Buckner and Grover a 855 00:39:53,719 --> 00:39:56,560 Speaker 6: lot more, and I really like the way Womack and 856 00:39:56,719 --> 00:39:58,200 Speaker 6: Jones are playing on the outside. 857 00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:04,440 Speaker 3: All Right, that was that talking found better play on 858 00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:08,080 Speaker 3: offense and defense yesterday for the Colts. That's what I'm 859 00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:10,359 Speaker 3: talking about. And that was brought to you by hot 860 00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:13,440 Speaker 3: Box Pizza.

By the way, this segment is brought 893 00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:51,000 Speaker 3: to you by Meyer, the official supercenter of the Colts 894 00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:53,880 Speaker 3: and a proud sponsor of hundreds of local sports teams 895 00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:55,880 Speaker 3: across the Midwest. So we got some good ones here. 896 00:41:56,280 --> 00:41:59,400 Speaker 3: We start first with Jack and want to go special 897 00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:01,520 Speaker 3: teams have time to fit it in on the last 898 00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:03,960 Speaker 3: segment when we were talking about that's what I'm talking about. 899 00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:07,359 Speaker 3: But this is fitting coming from Jack. He wants to know, Hey, 900 00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:10,960 Speaker 3: after some early season struggles, Matt Gay is on fire. 901 00:42:11,080 --> 00:42:14,040 Speaker 3: He made all three of his field goals yesterday, including 902 00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:17,960 Speaker 3: a season long fifty six yarder. He's now converted eighteen 903 00:42:18,080 --> 00:42:21,239 Speaker 3: of his last nineteen field goals field goal tries. Rather, 904 00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:24,560 Speaker 3: Joe Wrights, Jack wants to know, is Matt Gay back? 905 00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:25,359 Speaker 2: Oh? 906 00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:27,640 Speaker 4: I think so, And I think it was great to see, 907 00:42:27,880 --> 00:42:30,520 Speaker 4: just because again, not only you know, hitting three for 908 00:42:30,640 --> 00:42:33,560 Speaker 4: three on field goals eighteen is last nineteen, but forty one, 909 00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:36,080 Speaker 4: forty seven and then fifty six and that fifty six 910 00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:38,480 Speaker 4: yarder we needed because that was in you know, kind 911 00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:40,759 Speaker 4: of the bottom stretch of our offense. But you know, 912 00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:43,719 Speaker 4: especially that distance matt being an outdoor stadium with the 913 00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:46,840 Speaker 4: win going as we get into December, and you know 914 00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:49,000 Speaker 4: you're playing some of these games at Denver, which could 915 00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:51,040 Speaker 4: be a play in game, you know, at New England, 916 00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:54,160 Speaker 4: you know, at the Giants, you know, all these outdoor stadiums. 917 00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:56,080 Speaker 4: It was great to see him kick and kick well. 918 00:42:56,160 --> 00:42:58,960 Speaker 4: And I really think his confidence is back after a 919 00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:00,480 Speaker 4: bit of a shaky starts the season. 920 00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:03,480 Speaker 3: Indeed, all right, let's go to Grant. He's asking, Hey, 921 00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:05,200 Speaker 3: Rick and I we talked about this a little bit 922 00:43:05,239 --> 00:43:08,120 Speaker 3: in the last segment as well. He says, hey, Rick, 923 00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:11,320 Speaker 3: ar look good on Sunday. Why what led to his 924 00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:12,719 Speaker 3: more consistent play? 925 00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:16,480 Speaker 6: Well? I think two things. I think one, we finally 926 00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:20,319 Speaker 6: re established who we are with him at quarterback. Whether 927 00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:23,680 Speaker 6: you call it identity, I call it a path to victory. 928 00:43:24,160 --> 00:43:28,440 Speaker 6: Basically we re established that. And good coaches actually know 929 00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:31,440 Speaker 6: that you have to do what players can do and 930 00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:34,120 Speaker 6: never ask him to do what they can't do. And 931 00:43:34,239 --> 00:43:36,279 Speaker 6: I think at this stage I said it before the 932 00:43:36,360 --> 00:43:39,040 Speaker 6: game and it was so true during the game. You 933 00:43:39,160 --> 00:43:41,839 Speaker 6: want with Anthony right now, you want to play him 934 00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:45,480 Speaker 6: like it's Saturday afternoon and Sunday in the Sunday game 935 00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:47,839 Speaker 6: will also come just like it did as the game 936 00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:51,560 Speaker 6: went on. I think that's really critical to go. But 937 00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:53,719 Speaker 6: you got to do what he can do best, and 938 00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:56,280 Speaker 6: you got to establish the run between he and JT, 939 00:43:56,800 --> 00:43:58,839 Speaker 6: and then everything else will fall into play. 940 00:43:59,239 --> 00:44:01,839 Speaker 3: All right, Rick, Terry, Joe Wright's right there again. I'm 941 00:44:01,840 --> 00:44:04,560 Speaker 3: Matt Taylor. Those are the submissions this week on X 942 00:44:04,680 --> 00:44:07,200 Speaker 3: with the mail Bag again every Monday night. Get those 943 00:44:07,239 --> 00:44:09,359 Speaker 3: in with the hashtag Colts round Table. Wish we had 944 00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:12,920 Speaker 3: time for more, but we're kind of up against it unfortunately. Hey, reminder, 945 00:44:12,960 --> 00:44:16,200 Speaker 3: the Colts had three sacks yesterday, so that means McNuggets 946 00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:19,040 Speaker 3: a free ten piece of McNuggets for everybody with a 947 00:44:19,160 --> 00:44:22,520 Speaker 3: one dollar minimum purchase only in the app. Offer valid 948 00:44:22,560 --> 00:44:24,880 Speaker 3: one week after Colts game.

Time now for the closing arguments as 972 00:45:40,120 --> 00:45:42,320 Speaker 3: we wrap up the show here, Joe, the floor is 973 00:45:42,360 --> 00:45:45,160 Speaker 3: yours first. Your final thoughts on that twenty eight to 974 00:45:45,200 --> 00:45:47,840 Speaker 3: twenty seven win for the Colts over the Jets. And 975 00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:50,960 Speaker 3: also just some thoughts on the Lions coming up here 976 00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:54,480 Speaker 3: Lucas Oil Stadium. They just racked up the largest win 977 00:45:54,600 --> 00:45:57,800 Speaker 3: in club history, beating the Jaguars by forty eight points 978 00:45:57,840 --> 00:46:01,160 Speaker 3: on Sunday. But for the Colts and their win over 979 00:46:01,239 --> 00:46:05,000 Speaker 3: the Jets last weekend, how big is that and perhaps 980 00:46:05,080 --> 00:46:08,680 Speaker 3: could that be a season changing or season altering win? 981 00:46:09,120 --> 00:46:11,400 Speaker 4: No question, and especially the way that we won the 982 00:46:11,480 --> 00:46:14,279 Speaker 4: game coming back on the road. Ar how special he 983 00:46:14,440 --> 00:46:16,399 Speaker 4: was in the fourth quarter. Again, I think the arrow 984 00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:18,719 Speaker 4: is really pointing up. And I tell you what, Matt, 985 00:46:19,520 --> 00:46:21,520 Speaker 4: the Colts are gonna play well against Detroit. I think 986 00:46:21,560 --> 00:46:23,760 Speaker 4: Detroit is playing the best of any team in the NFL. 987 00:46:23,840 --> 00:46:25,839 Speaker 4: But they've won eight in a row. You just won 988 00:46:25,920 --> 00:46:28,560 Speaker 4: by fifty. They got their big Thanksgiving gay of the 989 00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:30,520 Speaker 4: week after we got them at a good time. And 990 00:46:30,560 --> 00:46:33,120 Speaker 4: I'm telling you what the belief in the Esprie de 991 00:46:33,239 --> 00:46:35,040 Speaker 4: Corps coming out of that team and what you see 992 00:46:35,040 --> 00:46:37,279 Speaker 4: in the locker room. This will be a great game 993 00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:39,680 Speaker 4: on Sunday, and I fully expect this to be right 994 00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:41,719 Speaker 4: down to the wire. One team's going to kick a 995 00:46:41,760 --> 00:46:43,440 Speaker 4: field goal to win, and I think we're gonna get 996 00:46:43,440 --> 00:46:43,719 Speaker 4: it done. 997 00:46:43,800 --> 00:46:44,520 Speaker 5: I just really do. 998 00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:47,080 Speaker 4: I just got a good feeling about this one. But coach, 999 00:46:47,640 --> 00:46:49,680 Speaker 4: I know they're awful good in all three phases. What 1000 00:46:49,719 --> 00:46:50,960 Speaker 4: do they look like on tape to you? 1001 00:46:51,360 --> 00:46:53,919 Speaker 6: They're number one in the league in scoring and they're 1002 00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:57,120 Speaker 6: number five in scoring defense. They just came off a 1003 00:46:57,200 --> 00:47:00,920 Speaker 6: six hundred and forty five day total law and they 1004 00:47:01,000 --> 00:47:05,320 Speaker 6: have one hundred and fifty nine a plus point differential. 1005 00:47:05,480 --> 00:47:08,080 Speaker 6: So you know, it's suffice to say they're a pretty 1006 00:47:08,160 --> 00:47:12,160 Speaker 6: damn good football team. Now. Jacksonville phoned it in. Jacksonville 1007 00:47:12,239 --> 00:47:14,120 Speaker 6: was embarrassed. I don't go too much on that. I 1008 00:47:14,160 --> 00:47:16,239 Speaker 6: don't get too high on that because of the week 1009 00:47:16,320 --> 00:47:19,560 Speaker 6: before against the Texans, they had to lead a desperation 1010 00:47:19,760 --> 00:47:22,360 Speaker 6: second half. Texans had them beat at the half, and 1011 00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:25,120 Speaker 6: they came back and got it. But I will say this, 1012 00:47:25,840 --> 00:47:29,640 Speaker 6: when you get ready for Dan Campbell's team, Okay, we 1013 00:47:29,680 --> 00:47:32,000 Speaker 6: don't need a lot of kumbaya right now.
