Speaker 2: in with you until seven o'clock unpacking a lot of

20
00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:58,080
Speaker 2: good for the Colts. The Colts knocked off the Ravens

21
00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:01,040
Speaker 2: in overtime yesterday twenty two to nine nineteen with a

22
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:04,200
Speaker 2: walk off fifty three yard field goal by Matt Gay

23
00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:07,240
Speaker 2: and capped off a historic day for the Colts kicker,

24
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:10,960
Speaker 2: who connected on five field goals, including four at least

25
00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:14,360
Speaker 2: fifty three yards. He became the first kicker in NFL

26
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:17,160
Speaker 2: history with four makes of at least fifty yards in

27
00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:20,240
Speaker 2: a single game. Incredible finish for the Colts, who trailed

28
00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:22,919
Speaker 2: nineteen to sixteen late in the fourth quarter, after starting

29
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,640
Speaker 2: quarterback Gardner Minshew stepped out of the end zone for

30
00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:28,679
Speaker 2: a safety that put Baltimore up by three. The play

31
00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:31,240
Speaker 2: appeared to occur with a minute fifty eight left, but

32
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:34,280
Speaker 2: a replay changed the time to two minutes in three

33
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:36,679
Speaker 2: seconds when the Colts launched a free kick from the

34
00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:39,040
Speaker 2: twenty yard line. The Colts got a break with the

35
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:41,920
Speaker 2: Ravens bungling the final few minutes of regulation when they

36
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:45,039
Speaker 2: weren't able to communicate to return men Zay Flowers that

37
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:48,160
Speaker 2: he should not fair catch the Colts free kick. Flowers

38
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 2: didn't get the message and called for the fair catch

39
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:52,760
Speaker 2: with two h three left, which kept the two minute

40
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:56,360
Speaker 2: warning in place following Baltimore's first offensive play and gave

41
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 2: the Colts essentially a free timeout and thanks to a

42
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:02,760
Speaker 2: Colts timeout Baltimore penalty. Then on third down, the Colts

43
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 2: got the ball back with a minute forty one left.

44
00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:07,400
Speaker 2: They drove down the field and Matt Gay tied the

45
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:10,960
Speaker 2: game with another long field goal with fifty seven seconds remaining.

46
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 2: The Colts traded three and ounts with the Ravens to

47
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 2: begin overtime, then traded failed fourth down conversions near midfield,

48
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,320
Speaker 2: but then a thirteen yard run by Zack Moss took

49
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 2: the Colts into Ravens territory and close to Matt Gay

50
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 2: field goal range, and then Gay drilled the game winning

51
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 2: fueld goal just a few plays later. It was a

52
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 2: tremendous win for the Colts, who made a slew of

53
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:33,680
Speaker 2: plays in crunch time in the fourth quarter and overtime.

54
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,360
Speaker 2: The Ravens were just two for eight on third down

55
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:39,240
Speaker 2: ozer for one on fourth down. Lamar Jackson had his

56
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:42,320
Speaker 2: moments yes, especially in the first half, but he completed

57
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,840
Speaker 2: just one to five pass attempts in overtime for seven yards.

58
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:48,400
Speaker 2: Zack Moss for the Colts, he ran like a beast,

59
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,520
Speaker 2: totaled a career high thirty carries for one hundred and

60
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:54,200
Speaker 2: twenty two yards and added two catches for twenty three,

61
00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:57,880
Speaker 2: including a seventeen yard touchdown in the first half. It

62
00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:00,640
Speaker 2: was his second career one hundred yard game and only

63
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:03,360
Speaker 2: the fifth time the Ravens have allowed a one hundred

64
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:06,720
Speaker 2: yard rusher in the past four seasons. The defense racked

65
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:10,120
Speaker 2: up four more sacks and two more Fumbel recoveries, including

66
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:12,960
Speaker 2: one from rookie cornerback ju Ju Brins in the first half,

67
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:16,079
Speaker 2: who is making his NFL debut. The coultu are now

68
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,320
Speaker 2: two to one, all alone in first place in the

69
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 2: AFC South. After the Texans beat the Jaguars and the

70
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 2: Titans fell to the Browns on Sunday. The colt return

72

Speaker 2: a night in Cincinnati on Monday Night football, and the

73
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 2: Colts will be looking for their first three game winning

74

Speaker 2: another big win, Colts getting the job done in overtime.

85
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 2: What was that locker room celebration like after the game

86
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 2: and one of the more difficult places to play in

87
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:13,040
Speaker 2: the NFL in Baltimore.

88
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, it was awesome to see, you know how

89
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 4: the guys fought the whole game, obviously almost through you know,

90
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,479
Speaker 4: five quarters of football to win that game, just a

91
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:23,240
Speaker 4: back and forth battle, and then the locker room was great.

92
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:26,600
Speaker 4: Just the excitement the guys showed and you know how

93
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:28,800
Speaker 4: fired up they were, and to get that victor on

94
00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:29,440
Speaker 4: the row was huge.

95
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:31,560
Speaker 2: You know, there's in a game like that, and really,

96
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:34,760
Speaker 2: so far this season there's been so many stars, guys

97
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:37,760
Speaker 2: playing really really well through three games. But in a

98
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:39,760
Speaker 2: game like that, you got to start with Matt Gaye

99
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:42,840
Speaker 2: made all those clutch kicks, I should say, you know,

100
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:45,640
Speaker 2: four kicks, four makes over fifty yards, the first player

101
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:49,080
Speaker 2: in NFL history to do that. What makes him so

102
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,360
Speaker 2: cold blooded? What makes him just full of ice water

103
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:54,240
Speaker 2: in his veins in that situation.

104
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,560
Speaker 3: That's what it is. He's got ice winter his veins. Shoot.

105
00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 4: We watched all them in the team meeting this morning.

106
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:00,880
Speaker 4: Showed every single one of him and the shoot there

107
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,400
Speaker 4: right down the middle every single time. But you know,

108
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:06,680
Speaker 4: credit to Chris Ballard signing him in the offseason to

109
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 4: get a you know, elite kicker like him on our

110
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:11,600
Speaker 4: football team. To do what he did on Sunday was tremendous.

111
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:13,360
Speaker 2: Did you think for a second that last one in

112
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 2: overtime wasn't going through? No, it was going through Yeah,

113
00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 2: no doubt about it, and right through the middle. As

114
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,640
Speaker 2: you said too. And I'll be honest with you and

115
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:23,360
Speaker 2: I we talked about this right before we started here.

116
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:25,599
Speaker 2: I mean, I was trying to keep track of the game.

117
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 2: There was so much going on there towards the end

118
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:30,440
Speaker 2: of regulation with the safety, but the Za Flowers fair

119
00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 2: catch right before the two minute warning, that really helped

120
00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:36,880
Speaker 2: the Colts in terms of more time on the clock

121
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 2: and it helps some of that game management stuff. Did

122
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:41,039
Speaker 2: you realize in real time, like how big of a

123
00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 2: break that may have been for the Colts.

124
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, I knew right when that fair catch happened.

125
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:48,680
Speaker 4: It was it was a huge break for us, obviously,

126
00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:50,240
Speaker 4: you know, we got the ball back with plenty of

127
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:52,240
Speaker 4: time there. Our defense went out, you know, had a

128
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:54,560
Speaker 4: three and out and we got the ball back and

129
00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 4: it was tremendous yep.

130
00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:57,240
Speaker 5: All right.

131
00:05:57,279 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 2: Gardner Minshew at quarterback started the game his first start

132
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:03,719
Speaker 2: for the Colts. Played really well. Didn't turn the football over.

133
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:05,920
Speaker 2: He took some shots inside the pocket, There's no doubt

134
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:08,680
Speaker 2: about that. But how impressed were you with his game,

135
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,159
Speaker 2: his toughness and how's he feeling today?

136
00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:15,479
Speaker 4: He's feeling good, you know. Just tremendous, tremendous performance by him.

137
00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:18,919
Speaker 4: Just a toughness, the grittiness he showed. They were bringing

138
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:20,400
Speaker 4: a lot of pressure, you know they I think they

139
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:24,479
Speaker 4: pressured fifty three out of eighty plus snaps. So it

140
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:26,719
Speaker 4: was good to see him in the pocket, you know,

141
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:30,200
Speaker 4: delivering passes and completing the balls he did to keep

142
00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 4: the chains moving. But just a great performance.

143
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:33,240
Speaker 1: By him, all right.

144
00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 2: Last one for me, the defense, What a great job

145
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,960
Speaker 2: out of them in the fourth quarter in overtime. Did

146
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,599
Speaker 2: some math today. The Ravens only had two conversions on

147
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:44,640
Speaker 2: third and fourth down and crunch time. I mean, how

148
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 2: dialed in was that defense? How much trust do you

149
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:48,960
Speaker 2: have in them so far this season in all of

150
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:50,920
Speaker 2: those high leverage situations.

151
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:52,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, they've been awesome.

152
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:55,279
Speaker 4: You know, we work on situational football, third downs, fourth

153
00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:57,560
Speaker 4: down stuff all the time. But just credit to those

154
00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:00,719
Speaker 4: players out there, all those guys being the same page

155
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,479
Speaker 4: in those situations to go make those plays, and you know,

156
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:06,040
Speaker 4: Gus putting them in those situations along with the defensive

157
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:07,880
Speaker 4: staff to go make those plays.

158
00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:08,440
Speaker 3: We're huge.

159
00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:10,680

164
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 2: what'd you think of Juju Brince's first start and what

165
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:27,760
Speaker 2: went into your decision to make Darryl Baker Junior inactive?

166
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, Juju has been progressing well through the

167
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 4: first two weeks of this season. Just thought it was

168
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:34,800
Speaker 4: time to put him up on the active roster and

169
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:37,480
Speaker 4: he went out there and had a heck of performance.

170
00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:41,760
Speaker 4: Obviously got the fumble there and recovery and then bakes

171
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:43,600
Speaker 4: a great player for us too as well as just

172
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:45,880
Speaker 4: you know, Juju has been progressing well, and so we

173
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 4: want to Juju.

174
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:47,040
Speaker 1: All right.

175
00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 2: Jordan's asking, how impressive have you been from the pass

176
00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 2: rush on the season? We had four sacks on Jackson,

177
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:55,320
Speaker 2: could have been several more. Are we ahead of where

178
00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:57,400
Speaker 2: we were last year? Along the front?

179
00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:00,680
Speaker 4: You know, obviously I wasn't here last year, but from

180
00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:03,000
Speaker 4: what I've seen from this year, those guys are playing

181
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 4: tremendous football, you know. And credit to Nate Ollie, our

182
00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:07,920
Speaker 4: D line coach, and Matt Rachar assistant D line coach,

183
00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 4: for getting those guys ready to go every single week.

184
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:10,160
Speaker 1: Yep.

185
00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:14,240
Speaker 4: But just Quitty and Dio and Samson and Grove and

186
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:16,800
Speaker 4: Buck and I mean all those guys up front, you know,

187
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:20,160
Speaker 4: they're just they're rushing together, they're playing physical together, they're

188
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 4: on the same page and they're making plays.

189
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:22,280
Speaker 1: All right.

190
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,240
Speaker 2: Let's go to Keith's question. He says, I read where

191
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:27,360
Speaker 2: you had a role for every player on the team

192
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:30,760
Speaker 2: this year, and your role for Michael Pittman Junior is

193
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:33,120
Speaker 2: stepping up like a number one wide receiver. Have you

194
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:36,080
Speaker 2: seen him take on a different mentality this year that

195
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:38,040
Speaker 2: showed up or showed out? I should say on the

196
00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:40,040
Speaker 2: unbelievable catching overtime, I.

197
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:42,480
Speaker 4: Mean obviously a huge playing overtime to go up and

198
00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:44,640
Speaker 4: make that play, you know, needed a big play in

199
00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:47,440
Speaker 4: that situation, needed a chunk play there to get ourselves

200
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:49,400
Speaker 4: down in there and field go arranging overtime, and for

201
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:51,240
Speaker 4: him to go up and make that play between two

202
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:53,760
Speaker 4: defenders was tremendous. And he's been doing a heck of

203
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:56,640
Speaker 4: a job. You know, he's continuing to make, you know,

204
00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:58,840
Speaker 4: catch his weekend and week out and make plays for us.

205
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:01,240
Speaker 2: All right, I know you about this earlier today with

206
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 2: the media, but just for this audience, Nick is asking

207
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 2: how is Anthony Richardson feeling and does he have a

208
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,800
Speaker 2: chance to pass pass concussion protocol this.

209
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:10,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's in the protocol and I'll wait to hear

210
00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:13,040
Speaker 4: on the doctors, but he's progressing well.

211
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:13,439
Speaker 1: All right.

212
00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:17,880
Speaker 2: Dean is asking Gardner, Minshew rarely makes bad decisions, takes

213
00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:20,679
Speaker 2: care of the football. How much did you value that

214
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:23,319
Speaker 2: part of his game when factoring in bringing him over

215
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:24,120
Speaker 2: in free agency?

216
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:26,480
Speaker 3: Yeah? No, it's a huge part of it. Obviously.

217
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:28,839
Speaker 4: You know, a quarterback like him that can see the

218
00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:30,920
Speaker 4: game and process the game the way he does and

219
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:34,079
Speaker 4: the way he gets the bottom his hands quickly is tremendous,

220
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:36,200
Speaker 4: and he's very smart with the football, you know, on

221
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,720
Speaker 4: a weekly basis, you know, in practice then obviously when

222
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:39,360
Speaker 4: he has to play.

223
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 2: All right, let's go a couple more. John is up next.

224
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:45,600
Speaker 2: How much do you have to practice switching the field

225
00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:48,240
Speaker 2: goal team off the field for the offense to make

226
00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:50,360
Speaker 2: the other head coach burn a time out? And is

227
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:52,080
Speaker 2: that now a stich and staple.

228
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:54,480
Speaker 3: I don't know, Yeah, I mean it's just it's something

229
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:55,080
Speaker 3: we practice.

230
00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:56,680
Speaker 4: You know, we go through it and obviously we do

231
00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:58,120
Speaker 4: it and walk through as we do it in you

232
00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:00,880
Speaker 4: know live you know, live situations out on the practice

233
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:03,520
Speaker 4: field and just you know, different situations that come up

234
00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:05,679
Speaker 4: that can come up in the game. Obviously, it came

235
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:08,160
Speaker 4: up on Sunday, it came up the week before, and

236
00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:09,720
Speaker 4: our guys operated at a high level.

237
00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:11,680
Speaker 2: That's like another play though. I mean everybody has to

238
00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:14,199
Speaker 2: be on the same page orchestrating that to pull that off.

239
00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:16,319
Speaker 4: Yep, there's we all got to be on the same page.

240
00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:19,920
Speaker 4: Communications special teams, coach, offensive coaches, everyone's going to be

241
00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:20,840
Speaker 4: on the same page, all right.

242
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:22,920
Speaker 2: Last one, Dave is asking how much trust do you

243
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,800
Speaker 2: have in the linebackers over the middle and pass coverage.

244
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:28,720
Speaker 2: It seems like nothing comes easy to tight ends and

245
00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:30,520
Speaker 2: crossing patterns in the middle of the field.

246
00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, you know, Shaq, Zayre and EJ in the middle.

247
00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:36,800
Speaker 4: You know, obviously, really really three really good players for us.

248
00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:39,280
Speaker 4: Just have a great feel. Obviously, they study a ton

249
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:43,319
Speaker 4: of tape, a ton of film so they understand, you know,

250
00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:45,640
Speaker 4: the route combinations that they're getting that are over the middle,

251
00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:47,400
Speaker 4: so they can be in the right spots to make

252
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:47,960
Speaker 4: those plays.

253
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:51,520
Speaker 2: Indeed, all right, coach, well again, congratulations two and one.

254
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:54,360
Speaker 2: Back at home for the next couple of weeks, going

255
00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:57,679
Speaker 2: into week number four with the Rams. Congrats again and

Speaker 2: thanks for u Shane Steichen, the head coach of the Colts,

Speaker 2: us in segment number one. But Rick and Joe welcome back.

295
00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:56,320
Speaker 2: I want to know, Joe writes, Paint us the picture.

296
00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:58,800
Speaker 2: Take us inside the living room. There about four o'clock

297
00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:02,040
Speaker 2: Eastern time yesterday, Matt Gay lining up for that fifty

298
00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:04,679
Speaker 2: three yard field goal in overtime. Where are you? I

299
00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 2: just imagine you being in the living room or the

300
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:09,920
Speaker 2: rights basement with five six kids just draped all over

301
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:10,720
Speaker 2: you in celebration.

302
00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:13,120
Speaker 5: At that moment, we were in the basement. Matt, my

303
00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:15,920
Speaker 5: youngest Pete was sleeping, but the other five were awake.

304
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:19,520
Speaker 5: And Madden's son, aj who loves the Ravens, and he's

305
00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 5: got a Lamar Jackson jersey's wearing it. He's been talking

306
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:26,240
Speaker 5: trash all week, the Colts fans listening. I will allow

307
00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:28,240
Speaker 5: this just because I played with the Ravens for a

308
00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:30,640
Speaker 5: brief time. The culture is number two team. But he's

309
00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:33,000
Speaker 5: talking trash all week. And as the Colts kept battling

310
00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:36,120
Speaker 5: and battling and hanging in there, the momentum started to build.

311
00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:39,400
Speaker 5: And when Matt Gay kicked that game winning kick, we

312
00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:43,680
Speaker 5: were bouncing around the house, running around. My wife came downstairs, said,

313
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:45,720
Speaker 5: what in the world is going on because there was

314
00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:48,280
Speaker 5: so much noise. I tell you what, Matt. From a

315
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:51,480
Speaker 5: fan perspective watching the game, that's the most fun I've

316
00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:55,080
Speaker 5: had in a long time, just because of how much

317
00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:57,559
Speaker 5: Baltimore was favored by and nobody gave the Colts a chance.

318
00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:01,280
Speaker 5: And boy did the White and Blue compete hard yesterday afternoon.

319
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:04,200
Speaker 2: YEP, no doubt about it. That was basically the exact

320
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:06,600
Speaker 2: same scene played by play Wise for Rick and I

321
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,599
Speaker 2: inside the booth yesterday as that ball travels through the

322
00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:13,120
Speaker 2: uprights in Baltimore in overtime. So a lot to talk about,

323
00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:15,040
Speaker 2: per usual here on the show tonight. Again we're with

324
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:16,960
Speaker 2: you until seven o'clock coming up in just a bit,

325
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:19,320
Speaker 2: we're gonna have the mail bag always lead off with

326
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:21,800
Speaker 2: the tail of the tape. So Rick, the floor is yours.

327
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:23,920
Speaker 2: What stood out to you after watching the game film

328
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:27,120
Speaker 2: today as the Colts pull it off in overtime knocking

329
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:29,560
Speaker 2: off the Ravens twenty two to nineteen. Just your big

330
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:32,240
Speaker 2: takeaways from the game as the Colts improved at two

331
00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:32,560
Speaker 2: and one.

332
00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:37,080
Speaker 6: Well, there's really not enough time for me to talk about,

333
00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:39,800
Speaker 6: you know, what that game meant, what that game meant

334
00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:43,200
Speaker 6: to me, what it meant to the franchise, and there's

335
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:45,520
Speaker 6: just there's so many heroes that we could talk all

336
00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:49,160
Speaker 6: afternoon about that. You know. I thought that it was

337
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:54,360
Speaker 6: one of the grittiest and successful efforts that I've ever

338
00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:58,080
Speaker 6: been around, and that's like about forty some years. And

339
00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:01,200
Speaker 6: I thought that they I thought the Colts, as Joe said,

340
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:05,440
Speaker 6: I thought they just played hard all day long and

341
00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:08,800
Speaker 6: the last twenty five minutes, the last twenty five minutes

342
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:14,000
Speaker 6: was literally crunch time. And I thought, there's no doubt

343
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:17,400
Speaker 6: that the Colts won this in crunch time. And my

344
00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:20,520
Speaker 6: hat's off to the defense who played great all day,

345
00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:25,440
Speaker 6: but they exercised the demon yesterday. They won the game

346
00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:28,560
Speaker 6: in the fourth quarter and in the overtime they gave

347
00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:33,320
Speaker 6: up three points over a period of twenty five minutes.

348
00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:37,280
Speaker 6: And you know, and it really and the thing that

349
00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:41,120
Speaker 6: was so impressive about it is this became a battle

350
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:44,720
Speaker 6: for thirteen yards. I mean, whoever got the ball to

351
00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:47,280
Speaker 6: the forty one yard line and just think of the

352
00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:49,680
Speaker 6: ball at the fifties. I ever got it to the

353
00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:53,560
Speaker 6: forty one was gonna literally win the game. It was

354
00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:56,920
Speaker 6: that thirteen to thirteen yard game. I mean, it's like

355
00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:59,640
Speaker 6: in history if you study the Second World wards, the

356
00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:03,640
Speaker 6: Battle of Stalingrad, house styles, you know. And I think

357
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:08,000
Speaker 6: it took every ounce of a great coaching job on

358
00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:12,000
Speaker 6: both sides, of the of the of the of the equation,

359
00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:15,440
Speaker 6: and just a great effort on the field. You know,

360
00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:18,320
Speaker 6: my magic number is thirteen and I'm going to talk

361
00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:21,520
Speaker 6: about thirteen yards. I mean, it really came down to

362
00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:24,320
Speaker 6: three things. You know, at the at the end, there's

363
00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:27,040
Speaker 6: a million plays, the Pittman came, I mean, there's a

364
00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:32,480
Speaker 6: million things, but the stop by speed on fourth and three,

365
00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:35,520
Speaker 6: I mean, that's that's in that thirteen yard war that

366
00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:40,680
Speaker 6: stop by speed and then the thirteen yard run by Moss,

367
00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:44,240
Speaker 6: you know, and then the Anola Gay came in and

368
00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:47,880
Speaker 6: bombed it. You know, he just bombed it, okay, you know,

369
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:51,480
Speaker 6: And it was I think that sequence, that three play

370
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:56,200
Speaker 6: sequence is one of the best full team sequences that

371
00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:59,080
Speaker 6: you'll ever see in my thinking, you know, as I

372
00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:00,960
Speaker 6: looked at the tape and I looked at some of

373
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:03,640
Speaker 6: the heroes in this game, some of the guys that

374
00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:06,760
Speaker 6: really would be under the radar when they started the season,

375
00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:09,600
Speaker 6: I think he got a credit. Ballard. I think Ballard

376
00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:12,800
Speaker 6: deserves a lot of credit on this one. I think

377
00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:16,200
Speaker 6: our coaching staff, you know, And I go into games

378
00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:18,480
Speaker 6: now and I say this, and you know me, I'm

379
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:21,199
Speaker 6: a critic on this. I go into games and I

380
00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 6: feel like that we're going to win the coaching battle now,

381
00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:26,520
Speaker 6: I really do, on both sides of the ball. And

382
00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:29,760
Speaker 6: then it was a band of brothers who just refused

383
00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:33,840
Speaker 6: to lose and found a way to win the game.

384
00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:38,720
Speaker 6: I just think, for a great organization. This is certainly

385
00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:40,240
Speaker 6: one of its finest hours.

386
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:44,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, to dovetail off what coach said, I thought, and Coach,

387
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:47,240
Speaker 5: I know you'll understand this. We showed up to that

388
00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:50,560
Speaker 5: game competing, not trying to play hard, and that might

389
00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:53,160
Speaker 5: seem like a small thing, but it's a big difference.

390
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:56,720
Speaker 5: We competed hard from the opening snap until the end

391
00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:59,679
Speaker 5: of the game. We were fast, we were physical, and

392
00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:02,440
Speaker 5: we out physical the Baltimore Ravens. I know that's something

393
00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:05,600
Speaker 5: playing for John Harbaugh. He always talks about every week

394
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:07,639
Speaker 5: as the number one key to the game, and I

395
00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:10,800
Speaker 5: thought that we really got after those guys. When you

396
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:13,280
Speaker 5: think about the last six possessions for the Ravens, they

397
00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:16,760
Speaker 5: went field goal, then they went punt, punt, missed the

398
00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:18,479
Speaker 5: field goal at the end of the game, and then

399
00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:21,560
Speaker 5: think about this in overtime. They get the ball first

400
00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:25,119
Speaker 5: intent at the Colts forty eight, needing about ten yards

401
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:27,840
Speaker 5: to get in Tucker's range. They go three and out,

402
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:29,800
Speaker 5: then we punt it back to him and they have

403
00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:32,080
Speaker 5: first intent at their own forty six. All they need

404
00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:34,480
Speaker 5: to do is get fifteen yards and we stop them

405
00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:36,399
Speaker 5: on four downs. On that great play by E. J.

406
00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:40,200
Speaker 5: Speed so I really thought that we controlled the last

407
00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:42,400
Speaker 5: twenty five minutes. As coach said, we won the game

408
00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:44,960
Speaker 5: in the fourth quarter. And really credit to me the

409
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:48,040
Speaker 5: defensive line. I think that those four guys, a group

410
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:50,280
Speaker 5: that I've been a little bit critical of this year,

411
00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:54,920
Speaker 5: really dominated the game. Quitti pay Buckner and Grover Inside

412
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:57,000
Speaker 5: and Ebucom I thought had a great game. I know

413
00:18:57,040 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 5: they had some backup offensive linemens, but those four guys

414
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:03,320
Speaker 5: really deserve a lot of credit for continuing to get

415
00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:06,560
Speaker 5: after that front in Lamar Jackson and really win us

416
00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:08,160
Speaker 5: the game in the fourth quarter in overtime.

417
00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:11,480
Speaker 2: Indeed, absolutely well said on both sides right there. Again,

418
00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:14,280
Speaker 2: that's Rick Ventury and Joe Wright, Simon Matt Taylor. That's

419
00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 2: the tale of the tape. Also reminder Colts fans remember

420
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:20,560
Speaker 2: the weather authorities are Fox fifty nine and CBS four

421
00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:26,160
Speaker 2: in Indianapolis, Indiana's largest and weather rate certified most accurate weather. Again,

422
00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:28,919
Speaker 2: that's tail the tape. Rick Ventury Joe writes their initial

423
00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:32,680

424

425
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:37,480

Speaker 2: off against the Rams at Lucas Oil Stadium. After this

00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:41,680
Speaker 2: a segment. We're calling Who Gets the Star? With Rick Venturrey,

447
00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:45,359
Speaker 2: Joe Wrights, I'm Matt Taylor. Those two guys, they're definitely stars.

448
00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:49,360
Speaker 2: But the Colts have had multiple stars shine through through

449
00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:51,760
Speaker 2: three games so far in this young season. Who is

450
00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:54,880
Speaker 2: deserving of their own star after a couple of games?

451
00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:57,199
Speaker 2: Similar to the Hollywood Walk of Fame? Rick, have you

452
00:20:57,200 --> 00:20:59,480
Speaker 2: ever been to the Walk of Fame out out in California?

453
00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:00,800
Speaker 2: The Chinese stand out there.

454
00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:05,560
Speaker 6: I actually have when Mayor lived in Los Angeles, I've

455
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:07,879
Speaker 6: actually been to that walk Hall of fiying there you go.

456
00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:08,840
Speaker 2: I was there.

457
00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:10,200
Speaker 6: Surprised you on that one?

458
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:12,800
Speaker 2: I know, No, I know you're well versed your culture.

459
00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:14,520
Speaker 2: You get out. I was there, but I think I

460
00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:16,920
Speaker 2: was like eight years old, so I don't really remember

461
00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:19,880
Speaker 2: too much of it. But we're gonna honor some players

462
00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:22,840
Speaker 2: here with their own stars, right, You've got the five

463
00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:26,119
Speaker 2: pointed Stars out in Los Angeles to honor actors and

464
00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:31,440
Speaker 2: musicians and directors, producers and other people inside the entertainment industry.

465
00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:34,760
Speaker 2: So the first star, I think a guy that's worthy

466
00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:36,800
Speaker 2: of it so far, and Joe, I'll start with you.

467
00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:39,680
Speaker 2: Zach Moss because I know he's only played in two games,

468
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:43,840
Speaker 2: but what a difference He's made within the offense on Sunday,

469
00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:46,719
Speaker 2: you know, thirty carries one hundred and twenty two yards

470
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:50,639
Speaker 2: set single game career highs in both yards and attempts.

471
00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:53,520
Speaker 2: It was his second career one hundred yard game, his

472
00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:55,840
Speaker 2: second one hundred yard game in his last three. If

473
00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:58,639
Speaker 2: you go back to last season, he had that great

474
00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:01,439
Speaker 2: basket catch on the fade for a touchdown in the

475
00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:04,760
Speaker 2: first half to get the Colts on the board. I'm saying,

476
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:07,280
Speaker 2: he's deserving of a star, Joe for you? Why is

477
00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:10,679
Speaker 2: Moss deserving of a star on the young season? For you?

478
00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:11,480
Speaker 2: In your opinion?

479
00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:14,240
Speaker 5: Our running attack through two games, in terms of that

480
00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:17,359
Speaker 5: physical downhill attack, and again against a team that prides

481
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:20,160
Speaker 5: themselves on being physical, he got after it all day.

482
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:23,119
Speaker 5: Thirty carries. I mean, that's a lunch payal day for

483
00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:25,439
Speaker 5: Zach Moss. And there were a lot of two yard games,

484
00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:27,679
Speaker 5: three yard gains. But what I love about him, he's

485
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:30,679
Speaker 5: always churning his legs, He's always falling forward and all

486
00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:32,800
Speaker 5: you need is one crease and he broke it on

487
00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:35,520
Speaker 5: that thirteen yard running overtime and they were a little

488
00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:38,000
Speaker 5: bit tired, and he kept going and going. You mentioned

489
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,520
Speaker 5: that great catch out of the backfield. He's given us

490
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:43,280
Speaker 5: some dynamic play in the passing game too. But I

491
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:45,680
Speaker 5: really just think he's changed the identity of our running

492
00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:48,800
Speaker 5: attack in terms of downhill and with an offensive line

493
00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:52,120
Speaker 5: down Ryan Kelly for us to be able to continue

494
00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:54,760
Speaker 5: to run and grind the ball like we did thirty

495
00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:58,560
Speaker 5: carries for him almost forty as a team. That was awful. Impressive.

496
00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:02,679
Speaker 6: Amen, brother, a man, give him that star. He he

497
00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:05,600
Speaker 6: is that he has been a difference maker since he

498
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:09,320
Speaker 6: stepped on the field this year. In both games. I mean,

499
00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:13,000
Speaker 6: this was a grinded out. You know, we pounded him

500
00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:15,800
Speaker 6: or I thought our offensive line, particular our left side

501
00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:18,760
Speaker 6: just did a terrific job Nelson and Rayman over there.

502
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:21,560
Speaker 6: But he really banged it. You know, he was under

503
00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:23,680
Speaker 6: the radar in that trade a couple of years ago,

504
00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:26,920
Speaker 6: but people forget he was a high three. But I've

505
00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:29,879
Speaker 6: always looked at him as a banger, which he is

506
00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:32,439
Speaker 6: a banger, meaning he will take it to you. But

507
00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:36,000
Speaker 6: he also bounced plays outside better than I ever expected,

508
00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:39,320
Speaker 6: and the receiving aspect was really good. There's no doubt

509
00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:42,520
Speaker 6: about it. He has changed the game for us offensively.

510
00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:44,040
Speaker 6: As a matter of fact, you wonder what would have

511
00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:45,919
Speaker 6: happened if we had him in that opener, to be

512
00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:49,200
Speaker 6: honest with you, and I think you know two things.

513
00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:52,720
Speaker 6: I talk about great effort plays to win a game

514
00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:54,680
Speaker 6: like this, and we'll get into some more of them,

515
00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:58,360
Speaker 6: but you know, the thirteen yard run was the critical

516
00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:00,679
Speaker 6: one that's set up the field goal, and that was

517
00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:03,920
Speaker 6: a product of him banging and continue to bang with

518
00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:07,120
Speaker 6: vision and cutting that back back over our right side.

519
00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:10,199
Speaker 6: That was huge. But I thought his effort run in

520
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:13,240
Speaker 6: the fourth quarter set the stage for the victory. It

521
00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:16,120
Speaker 6: was only a five yard game. The clown he had

522
00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:20,280
Speaker 6: him five yards deep into backfield and he willed it

523
00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:22,560
Speaker 6: to be a five yard game. I mean that was

524
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:27,760
Speaker 6: that was cold effort at its absolute highest. So hats

525
00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:30,320
Speaker 6: hats off and give him that star.

526
00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:32,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, baby, all right, one star in the books. Let's

527
00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:35,960
Speaker 2: go to star number two guy for me. Michael Pittman, Junior.

528
00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:39,800
Speaker 2: Nine catches seventy seven yards in Baltimore, his third straight

529
00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:42,879
Speaker 2: game that he's led the team in catches. He's recorded

530
00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:45,840
Speaker 2: at least eight catches in three consecutive games to start

531
00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:48,359
Speaker 2: the season, first time for his career, and he's the

532
00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:50,399
Speaker 2: first Colt to do that, by the way, since Reggie

533
00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:54,359
Speaker 2: Wayne in twenty twelve. I don't think it's arguable, without

534
00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:56,919
Speaker 2: a doubt, the best catch of his career. In overtime,

535
00:24:57,080 --> 00:25:00,480
Speaker 2: second and ten, the Ravens are coming, They're they're bearing

536
00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:03,280
Speaker 2: down on Gardner Minshew, Joe. He throws that late pass

537
00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:05,800
Speaker 2: in the down down the near sideline or the left

538
00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:08,600
Speaker 2: side line to Michael Pittman Junior, and he goes up

539
00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:12,200
Speaker 2: over a couple of defenders through contact, pulls down a

540
00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:15,880
Speaker 2: thirty four yard catch. His helmet's coming off plays through

541
00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:18,479
Speaker 2: all of that contact pins the ball to his body

542
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:21,040
Speaker 2: with one hand. I mean, I think one of the

543
00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:24,920
Speaker 2: greatest contested catches I've ever seen, certainly the greatest catch

544
00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:27,879
Speaker 2: I've seen Michael Pittman Junior pull down in three plus

545
00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:31,320
Speaker 2: years with the Indianapolis Colts. Joe, why is Pittman deserving

546
00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:32,919
Speaker 2: of a star so far this season?

547
00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:36,280
Speaker 5: Because he had competitive greatness. He was at his best

548
00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:38,840
Speaker 5: when his best was needed and it was needed, and

549
00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:41,000
Speaker 5: I kept thinking to myself, Matt, we got to go

550
00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:42,520
Speaker 5: over the top. We got to go over the top

551
00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:44,440
Speaker 5: one time. Because they were getting tighter and tighter to

552
00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:47,480
Speaker 5: line of scrimmage. They were really getting pressure around Minshew

553
00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:49,680
Speaker 5: in the pocket. One thing guys don't realize in a

554
00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:52,520
Speaker 5: game like that when it's rainy and when you're on grass.

555
00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:55,640
Speaker 5: You saw both sides of the pocket kept collapsing because

556
00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:57,600
Speaker 5: it's hard to get your footing. It's hard to keep

557
00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:00,800
Speaker 5: those defenders away. And Minshew hung in there. And for

558
00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:04,000
Speaker 5: Pittman to make that catch with two guys as one

559
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,520
Speaker 5: guy pulled a face mask and ripped his right off,

560
00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:09,080
Speaker 5: I mean, credit to him for making the play of

561
00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:11,159
Speaker 5: the game and getting us going. I agree with you,

562
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:14,800
Speaker 5: that's the best catch of Michael Pittman's career. And to

563
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:16,600
Speaker 5: do it on the road against a really really good

564
00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:20,080
Speaker 5: defense in that environment really impressive and should give him

565
00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:22,520
Speaker 5: a lot of confidence in this Colts offense, a lot

566
00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:24,760
Speaker 5: of confidence moving forward the rest of the season.

567
00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:28,080
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think it was just you know, there's actually

568
00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:31,440
Speaker 6: Pittman makes two great plays. One that is a little

569
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:36,400
Speaker 6: bit forgotten. Okay, he makes the flimmable fumble recovery at

570
00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:39,920
Speaker 6: the end of the second quarter with an assist from Nelson,

571
00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:42,119
Speaker 6: who knocks that ball so that they can't pick it

572
00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:45,080
Speaker 6: up and score. Because on that sack fumble, they've got

573
00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:48,360
Speaker 6: a chance to score or at least get three, and

574
00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:51,080
Speaker 6: then Pittman just busts his butt over there to get

575
00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:55,520
Speaker 6: that fumble and to make sure that nothing happens. And

576
00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:59,560
Speaker 6: then you know, Pittman has always been a tough player here.

577
00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:02,920
Speaker 6: He he's a tough guy. He goes inside, he does

578
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:05,840
Speaker 6: all the hard work, he does all the blocking. He's

579
00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:08,840
Speaker 6: a high volume catcher, but not for many yards as

580
00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:11,040
Speaker 6: a matter of fact. Going into that catch, you know,

581
00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:13,960
Speaker 6: he's eight for forty three, which is a typical Pittman game,

582
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:18,359
Speaker 6: five point four per catch, and that's basically who he is.

583
00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:22,360
Speaker 6: But in that situation he rose to the occasion. We're

584
00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:24,720
Speaker 6: all saying that it's the best catch we've ever seen.

585
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:27,320
Speaker 6: I mean it's different. I mean he gets his helmet

586
00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:29,600
Speaker 6: knocked ups. Really he should have been fifteen more yards

587
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:31,679
Speaker 6: for face masks, to tell you the truth. But it

588
00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:34,760
Speaker 6: is one of the greatest catches you'll ever see. And

589
00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:37,399
Speaker 6: that's another one of those plays like I just talked

590
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:40,240
Speaker 6: about with Moss, where you will it to be, where

591
00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:44,959
Speaker 6: you make this spectacular play in that situation. So that

592
00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:49,000
Speaker 6: was just absolutely amazing. He deserves every star you want

593
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:49,320
Speaker 6: to give.

594
00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:51,960
Speaker 2: Him, and Rick I know that on that particular drive.

595
00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:55,480
Speaker 2: That catch did not lead to points, right, that wasn't

596
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:57,919
Speaker 2: the game winning drive for the Colts. But what it

597
00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:01,760
Speaker 2: did do is it kept the ball near midfield later

598
00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:04,240
Speaker 2: on in that in that overtime period, and it kept

599
00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:07,199
Speaker 2: the field position for the Colts in striking distance to

600
00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:09,680
Speaker 2: get inside Matt Gay field goal range there at the end.

601
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:12,440
Speaker 6: That's exactly right that that play.

602
00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:14,320
Speaker 2: Got it because it went from it went from the

603
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:16,480
Speaker 2: eleven to the forty five yard forty five.

604
00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:19,119
Speaker 6: Yeah, it made it the thirteen yard war that it

605
00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:22,360
Speaker 6: became that we won because if we don't make that right,

606
00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:25,560
Speaker 6: then they've got the field tilt and they're they're probably

607
00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:28,320
Speaker 6: you know, we're living on borrowed time. They're probably gonna

608
00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:30,680
Speaker 6: get it. Yeah, that was that was the I call

609
00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:34,120
Speaker 6: that the game savor because that saved us and put

610
00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:38,120
Speaker 6: us in position to be in that situation, no doubt

611
00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:38,640
Speaker 6: about that.

612
00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:41,880
Speaker 2: All Right, this is Colts Roundtable Live with Rick Van Turry,

613
00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:44,600
Speaker 2: Joe Wright s, I'm Matt Taylor with you until seven

614
00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:47,480
Speaker 2: o'clock tonight. We're giving out stars, right, just like you

615
00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:50,360
Speaker 2: see in the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Who are the

616
00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:52,960
Speaker 2: stars for the Colts deserving of their own star on

617
00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:55,960
Speaker 2: the sidewalk. Through three games, I think the third star

618
00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:58,760
Speaker 2: Zire Franklin. And there's a lot of different guys that

619
00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:01,880
Speaker 2: deserve stars, but we're just going with you some of

620
00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:04,600
Speaker 2: the home runs here. Zire Franklin continues to just be

621
00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:07,800
Speaker 2: a one man wrecking crew. Had a team high fifteen

622
00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:11,320
Speaker 2: tackles yesterday. He's got forty five tackles so far on

623
00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:14,000
Speaker 2: the season, and he's passed Pat Anger for the most

624
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,240
Speaker 2: tackles by a Colts player in their first three weeks

625
00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:19,000
Speaker 2: of the season. He also became the third Colt ever

626
00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:22,960
Speaker 2: to record at least thirteen tackles in three consecutive games.

627
00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:25,840
Speaker 2: Shaq Lenard did that in twenty eighteen and then Mike

628
00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:30,280
Speaker 2: Peterson in two thousand. Joe, why does Zire Franklin deserve

629
00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:33,800
Speaker 2: his own star? And Colts Boulevard? Through three games here you.

630
00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:37,120
Speaker 5: Can look at the stats fifteen tackles, eleven solo you

631
00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:40,280
Speaker 5: kidding me, tackle for lost sack. But what I like

632
00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:43,880
Speaker 5: about Zaire Franklin, he's the leader of that defense in

633
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:47,600
Speaker 5: terms of the energy and toughness that he brings every

634
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:50,920
Speaker 5: single play, every single day. You can see guys rally

635
00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:53,800
Speaker 5: around that when you're the middle linebacker calling the shots

636
00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:56,719
Speaker 5: in there. Just so impressive for me. The tone that

637
00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:59,320
Speaker 5: he continues to set on a day to day basis.

638
00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:01,520
Speaker 5: He's a tough dude, dude and he ain't backing down

639
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:03,920
Speaker 5: from nobody. And to go in and beat a team

640
00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:07,000
Speaker 5: like the Ravens at home, yep, you have to have

641
00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:10,680
Speaker 5: that toughness in that fight. And I really think that

642
00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:13,320
Speaker 5: the rest of the guys in the defense, they play

643
00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:16,440
Speaker 5: off his toughness and kind of that Superman cape that

644
00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:18,400
Speaker 5: he puts on a little bit when he walks out there.

645
00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:20,040
Speaker 2: All right, Rick, I don't want to cut you off

646
00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:22,000
Speaker 2: on Zaire Franklin, but I do want to leave time

647
00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:25,200
Speaker 2: for this one because I know you can really appreciate

648
00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:27,200
Speaker 2: this as the old ball coach. I think the fourth

649
00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:29,720
Speaker 2: star Rick has to go to Shane Steik In the

650
00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:32,760
Speaker 2: thirty eight year old Shane Stike in pushing all the

651
00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:35,640
Speaker 2: right buttons so far this season for the Colts. He's

652
00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:41,360
Speaker 2: got core beliefs, character, preparation, consistency, relentlessness. He talked about

653
00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:43,200
Speaker 2: those in the opening press conference.

654
00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:43,880
Speaker 5: When he was hired.

655
00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:46,760
Speaker 2: We saw all of those things, you know, those pillars

656
00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:50,560
Speaker 2: on display during training camp believes heavily obviously in holding

657
00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:54,160
Speaker 2: players accountable. Coach is accountable and expects them to hold

658
00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:57,160
Speaker 2: him accountable in return. I mean he's doing a lot.

659
00:30:57,200 --> 00:30:59,280
Speaker 2: He's the head coach, he's the game manager, he's the

660
00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:03,280
Speaker 2: offensive player caller. And also at times, as we've seen Rick,

661
00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:06,120
Speaker 2: he's out smarting. I should say, opposing head coach is

662
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:08,640
Speaker 2: Shane Steikn. What do you think is he deserving of

663
00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:09,280
Speaker 2: his own star?

664
00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:12,560
Speaker 6: Through three games, man, I'm giving him three stars. I'm

665
00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:16,560
Speaker 6: telling you this has been a terrific performance. He's coaching

666
00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:18,960
Speaker 6: in the NFL and he's coaching in the NHL at

667
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:23,720
Speaker 6: sometimes those line changes, but absolutely tremendous. You know, he's

668
00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:26,920
Speaker 6: brought He's brought so many things to the table, things

669
00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:30,280
Speaker 6: that we hoped and believed that he would. But he's

670
00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:34,360
Speaker 6: brought high tech and what I call now football, but

671
00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:38,120
Speaker 6: with the mental flexibility to coach a guy you know

672
00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:42,280
Speaker 6: of like Anthony in one minute and go to Minshew

673
00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:46,440
Speaker 6: in the next minute and control the game. He's innovative

674
00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:50,160
Speaker 6: on one way, but he's very practical on another. I

675
00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:53,600
Speaker 6: love his accountability. I always say it's not what you say.

676
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:58,160
Speaker 6: He didn't talk accountability, but just ask Jackson and Baker

677
00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:01,680
Speaker 6: about accountability. You either play now well for the Colts

678
00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:05,440
Speaker 6: or they go on without you without much noise. I

679
00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:07,760
Speaker 6: just think the world of him. I think he's done

680
00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 6: a great job. As I said earlier, when we go

681
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:14,040
Speaker 6: into games now, I feel like we have the coach advantage.

682
00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:16,560
Speaker 6: And just a quick shout out to Gus Bradley. I've

683
00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:20,040
Speaker 6: been critical at times, but he has totally evolved his

684
00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:25,960
Speaker 6: package from basically a static cover three four man defense

685
00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:29,800
Speaker 6: to Blitziana right now. I mean, he brought more pressure

686
00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:32,600
Speaker 6: than I've ever seen, and he was creative. He ran

687
00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:35,600
Speaker 6: a big bear five man rush and he ran a

688
00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:39,560
Speaker 6: radar blitz, both effective and when the game was on

689
00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:42,880
Speaker 6: the line, he brought zero blitz after zero blitz after

690
00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:46,080
Speaker 6: zero blitz. He played it like it was a thirteen

691
00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:49,120
Speaker 6: yard field. Hats off to Gus Bradley as well.

692
00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:51,680
Speaker 5: I think it's his toughness and accountability coach mentioned and

693
00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:54,200
Speaker 5: all of a sudden, you're a healthy scratch those two

694
00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:57,760
Speaker 5: guys Jackson and Baker, Okay, we better get with the program.

695
00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:00,720
Speaker 5: And I agree with Rick. Coaches can say all they want,

696
00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:03,640
Speaker 5: players know, and players know when guys are being held

697
00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:06,160
Speaker 5: accountable and they are. And I just think his toughness

698
00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:08,640
Speaker 5: as a person. You could tell that he walked into

699
00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:11,200
Speaker 5: that stadium and said, we're winning the game. And I

700
00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:13,440
Speaker 5: have that belief as a coach. And when your coach

701
00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:16,719
Speaker 5: has that confidence in himself, it rubs off to everybody

702
00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:18,360
Speaker 5: else on the team. And I tell you what, Matt,

703
00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:20,640
Speaker 5: this is a team that believes. This is a team

704
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:24,800
Speaker 5: that be a super Bowl contender in their arena and

705
00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:28,000
Speaker 5: a really tough game and that belief, that confidence in

706
00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:30,480
Speaker 5: each other that can go a long way with the team.

707
00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:32,680
Speaker 5: So all of a sudden, I think through three games

708
00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:34,760
Speaker 5: and we'll get into this, but the narrative for the

709
00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:37,160
Speaker 5: Colts in this season that a lot of people thought, oh, well,

710
00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:39,600
Speaker 5: you know, we're gonna win a few games and we're

711
00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:41,640
Speaker 5: gonna play Richardson and we're gonna take our lumps.

712
00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:42,320
Speaker 1: Uh huh.

713
00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:46,280
Speaker 5: Not anymore. It is completely flipped. And that's awful exciting.

716
00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:54,920
Speaker 2: I'm Matt Taylor absolutely agree and that's who gets the star.

717
00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:57,600
Speaker 2: A play on the stars that you see on the

718
00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:00,440
Speaker 2: Hollywood Walk of Fame out in California when you were

719
00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:03,440
Speaker 2: out there? Which star were you most star struck by?

00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:03,680
Speaker 6: Like?

Speaker 2: take a picture next to this star.

723
00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:08,960
Speaker 6: Charlton Heston Moses.

724
00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:12,040

Speaker 6: let them go.

728
00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:22,160
Speaker 2: No, No, we're just letting them saturate. You know, we're

729
00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:24,360
Speaker 2: letting them sink in because we know more. We know

730

760
00:35:57,560 --> 00:36:01,440
Speaker 2: Let's go to Oliver rick Oli asking how much credit

761
00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:05,040
Speaker 2: should Chris Ballard get for the turnaround so far this

762
00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:07,480
Speaker 2: season after a four to twelve and one season.

763
00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:10,879
Speaker 6: Last year, well, I think he really deserves a ton

764
00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:14,640
Speaker 6: of credit, to be honest with you. You know, certainly last

765
00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:17,799
Speaker 6: year he got a ton of criticism and really got

766
00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:20,680
Speaker 6: criticism this winner. I don't think there's any doubt about

767
00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:24,200
Speaker 6: it that maybe he was standing still and wasn't doing enough.

768
00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:27,279
Speaker 6: But when you look at some of the guys and

769
00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:30,920
Speaker 6: how they played yesterday and what he has done both

770
00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:34,080
Speaker 6: on the radar and off the radar. First of all,

771
00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:37,000
Speaker 6: with Gay himself, I think people question that you would

772
00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:41,520
Speaker 6: pay a kicker that much money. Who cares about that today? Okay,

773
00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:44,840
Speaker 6: that was tremendous. And then I think some under the

774
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:49,480
Speaker 6: radar additions, obviously you know Minshew himself. I mean Minshew

775
00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:52,160
Speaker 6: has played really well here in a game in half.

776
00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:55,680
Speaker 6: He certainly earned his contract. Moss, who was under the

777
00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:59,000
Speaker 6: radar trade, you know that's ended up paying off big,

778
00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:02,520
Speaker 6: big dividends. I think Abu Khan has really and Joe

779
00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:05,239
Speaker 6: said it too, I'm telling you he has really come

780
00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:07,719
Speaker 6: on as a thread off that edge. And the guy

781
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:11,000
Speaker 6: that's kind of quietly making plays is was the other

782
00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:15,000
Speaker 6: acquisition was Brian. He had another sack and another strip

783
00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:17,920
Speaker 6: and then the second day picks over the years. You

784
00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:21,520
Speaker 6: know the Pittman, the Rymans, the Blackman's, you know, the

785
00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:25,160
Speaker 6: Brents guys are who are impactive players, and then those

786
00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:29,560
Speaker 6: third day guys like Stuart Franklin, Speed and Flowers. You know.

787
00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:32,120
Speaker 6: And don't get me wrong, Chris is a friend. We

788
00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:35,120
Speaker 6: talk personnel all the time in the off season. But

789
00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:37,520
Speaker 6: I've never spared the sword when I thought that there

790
00:37:37,640 --> 00:37:40,120
Speaker 6: was a weakness in thinking. But I think when you

791
00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:43,200
Speaker 6: look at this game in total, you have to say,

792
00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:45,240
Speaker 6: you know, this is pretty well put together.

793
00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:48,000
Speaker 2: All right, let's go back to the mail bag. Let's

794
00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:51,759
Speaker 2: go to Craig's question. Craig Joe is asking, what's the

795
00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:54,520
Speaker 2: likelihood we can get on a run we being in

796
00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:56,799
Speaker 2: the Colts, get on a run and reel off some

797
00:37:56,840 --> 00:37:59,600
Speaker 2: more wins and get the four and one after the

798
00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:01,799
Speaker 2: next couple of weeks, the next couple of home games

799
00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:03,000
Speaker 2: at Lucas Oil Stadium.

800
00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:05,400
Speaker 5: Well, let's go, Craig. I thought the same thing when

801
00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:07,400
Speaker 5: I woke up today. The Colts are in first place

802
00:38:07,480 --> 00:38:10,640
Speaker 5: by a game in the South and really and to

803
00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:13,080
Speaker 5: talk about what coach said and with baller two the

804
00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:16,400
Speaker 5: higher of Shane Steiken and just how that's fundamentally changed

805
00:38:16,760 --> 00:38:19,799
Speaker 5: the attitude in the building is huge. But think about this, Matt.

806
00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:22,360
Speaker 5: We have four of our next five at home against

807
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:26,080
Speaker 5: the Rams, Titans, Browns, and Saints. All of those are

808
00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:28,680
Speaker 5: winnable games. Now, all of those you could lose two.

809
00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:30,920
Speaker 5: But think about the Colts over the next five. I mean,

810
00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:32,640
Speaker 5: you got the chance if you go four and one,

811
00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:35,160
Speaker 5: you're sitting there all of a sudden at six and two,

812
00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:36,759
Speaker 5: or even if you go three and two and you're

813
00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:39,320
Speaker 5: a five and three the halfway point in the season.

814
00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:41,440
Speaker 5: I mean, the Colts at this point should expect to

815
00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:43,920
Speaker 5: have a winning record through the first eight games, and

816
00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:46,080
Speaker 5: all of a sudden, all bets are off as you

817
00:38:46,160 --> 00:38:48,120
Speaker 5: kind of push for this playoff race. And I think

818
00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:50,680
Speaker 5: we already got a road division win. We got one

819
00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:54,440
Speaker 5: of the bank against Houston, which nobody saw them beating Jacksonville.

820
00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:56,480
Speaker 5: So I kind of think it's going to be buckle

821
00:38:56,560 --> 00:38:59,040
Speaker 5: up again in the AFC South. But guess what, the

822
00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:01,600
Speaker 5: Colts are a player, and the Colts are here to stay.

823
00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:04,000
Speaker 5: And that's something I think the rest of the world

824
00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:06,680
Speaker 5: and the rest of the NFL did not think three

825
00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:07,200
Speaker 5: games ago.

826
00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:10,200
Speaker 2: Joe writes right there. Rick Van Terry's along as well.

827
00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:12,720
Speaker 2: I'm Matt Taylor. This is Colts around Table Live tonight

828
00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:14,520
Speaker 2: here on ninety three to five and one oh seven

829
00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:16,319
Speaker 2: five the fan with you for the next couple of

830
00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:19,359
Speaker 2: minutes until seven o'clock tonight. Let's go back to the

831
00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:22,160
Speaker 2: mail bag, get in at least one more. Tim is asking,

832
00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:24,480
Speaker 2: And I know you were talking about this before and

833
00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:27,399
Speaker 2: after the game, Rick, So your thoughts a day later.

834
00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:31,040
Speaker 2: What went into the decision to start Juju Brince and

835
00:39:31,239 --> 00:39:35,120
Speaker 2: make Darryl Baker Junior inactive? And how did Brince perform

836
00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:36,880
Speaker 2: in his first NFL start?

837
00:39:37,239 --> 00:39:40,279
Speaker 6: Well, you know, it was surprising. The Jackson thing was

838
00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:44,040
Speaker 6: not surprising. The Baker thing was a little surprising to

839
00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:47,600
Speaker 6: me because of his experience. But I think it's just

840
00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:52,760
Speaker 6: the passion that Shane and everyone has to get better

841
00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:55,280
Speaker 6: every day, no matter what. If they've got a position

842
00:39:55,400 --> 00:39:58,839
Speaker 6: change to make, they don't hesitate to make it. And

843
00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:02,000
Speaker 6: I think the results were outstanding. I mean I was surprised,

844
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:05,880
Speaker 6: pleasantly surprised, because Juju just has it. He just didn't

845
00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:08,800
Speaker 6: get the reps. He just didn't have, you know, the

846
00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:12,560
Speaker 6: kind of experience even in practice to be ready, but

847
00:40:12,640 --> 00:40:14,799
Speaker 6: he went out there and did a terrific job, and

848
00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:17,040
Speaker 6: it was you know, he made really one of the

849
00:40:17,080 --> 00:40:19,680
Speaker 6: plays of the game, because I'm not sure if they

850
00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:21,720
Speaker 6: don't go down there and score and go up fourteen

851
00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:24,360
Speaker 6: to nothing with that crowd, it might be a really

852
00:40:24,440 --> 00:40:27,359
Speaker 6: long day. And you know, that strip and fumble for him,

853
00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:30,200
Speaker 6: you know, and then he really played good coverage the

854
00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:31,680
Speaker 6: rest of the way. I mean, he has a big

855
00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:35,080
Speaker 6: strip on Andrews later. I mean, he showed his length

856
00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:38,600
Speaker 6: and his bursts. So you know, obviously it took some

857
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:41,920
Speaker 6: you know, some some real thought and some courage, you know,

858
00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:44,240
Speaker 6: to make that switch that early, but you know, really

859
00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:45,880
Speaker 6: paid off at least in one Sunday.

860
00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:48,040
Speaker 2: All right, Joe, let's squeeze in one more. Let's go

861
00:40:48,040 --> 00:40:50,640
Speaker 2: to Evan's question before we wrap up here. On this segment,

862
00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:53,320
Speaker 2: Evan is asking Joe, how much do we need Jonathan

863
00:40:53,360 --> 00:40:56,080
Speaker 2: Taylor back in the lineup if we're gonna get that

864
00:40:56,160 --> 00:40:59,480
Speaker 2: type of production in the running game out of Zach Moss. Now,

865
00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:02,239
Speaker 2: obviously everybody knows what's going on with Jonathan Taylor. He's

866
00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:05,759
Speaker 2: on PUP. He's eligible to come off of PUP next week,

867
00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:09,200
Speaker 2: Week five, going into that game against the Tennessee Titans.

868
00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:13,759
Speaker 2: I don't think anybody would downplay Jonathan Taylor's significance and

869
00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:15,680
Speaker 2: how good of a player he is. But I think

870
00:41:15,719 --> 00:41:18,680
Speaker 2: the question is just hyping up Zach Moss and how

871
00:41:18,760 --> 00:41:20,960
Speaker 2: good and reliable he has been. So what do you

872
00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:22,239
Speaker 2: make of Evans question there?

873
00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:26,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, I would say that's a great question, but the

874
00:41:26,160 --> 00:41:28,080
Speaker 5: need is in his eyes. It was two weeks ago,

875
00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:30,120
Speaker 5: and I think that's a credit to Zach Moss what

876
00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:33,400
Speaker 5: he's brought, being the bellcal the offensive line, and obviously

877
00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:35,800
Speaker 5: Jonathan Taylor is a great player, but you got to

878
00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:37,400
Speaker 5: give credit to the guys that are out there in

879
00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:40,400
Speaker 5: the arena competing, and I just think Zach Moss has

880
00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:42,920
Speaker 5: just done a tremendous job for these first couple games.

881
00:41:43,200 --> 00:41:46,000
Speaker 5: He's running with power and confidence and you can see

882
00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:48,560
Speaker 5: that reflected in the offensive line how their block and

883
00:41:48,920 --> 00:41:51,600
Speaker 5: coach mentioned it. Wesley French thought he did an admiral

884
00:41:51,719 --> 00:41:54,279
Speaker 5: job in his first start. But Quenton Nelson is back

885
00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:57,040
Speaker 5: and he's mauling people, and Ryman is really coming on

886
00:41:57,080 --> 00:41:59,319
Speaker 5: in year two two. It's great for me to see

887
00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:02,520
Speaker 5: that offensive line re established themselves. Yeah, in my opinion

888
00:42:02,560 --> 00:42:04,080
Speaker 5: is one of the better units in the NFL.

889
00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:06,479
Speaker 2: All right again, that's a look at the Colts mail Bag,

890
00:42:06,520 --> 00:42:08,800

Speaker 2: the closing arguments. Closing out the show, Rick Venturi and

914
00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:21,640
Speaker 2: Joe writes through your final thoughts on the win against

915
00:43:21,640 --> 00:43:24,160
Speaker 2: the Ravens in week number three. And I think the

916
00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:26,440
Speaker 2: thing for me, Joe that was so pleasant to see

917
00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:29,200
Speaker 2: was the Colts made more plays in crunch time right

918
00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:31,719
Speaker 2: when you boil it all down. The Colts last year

919
00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:34,680
Speaker 2: lost six games by one score, and to get a

920
00:43:34,719 --> 00:43:38,080
Speaker 2: win in overtime just feels it feels extra suite, if

921
00:43:38,120 --> 00:43:40,120
Speaker 2: you will. What is your level of optimism on this

922
00:43:40,200 --> 00:43:43,120
Speaker 2: team right now? With two wins on the season through

923
00:43:43,160 --> 00:43:45,560
Speaker 2: three games and the fact that you know and crunch

924
00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:47,680
Speaker 2: time so far, this season's a little bit of a

925
00:43:47,719 --> 00:43:50,640
Speaker 2: different story compared to twenty twenty two.

926
00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:53,520
Speaker 5: Matt, optimism is high. And here's why we have a

927
00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:55,560
Speaker 5: belief in this team. You can feel it and I've

928
00:43:55,560 --> 00:43:58,640
Speaker 5: been on teams when no matter what happens in the game,

929
00:43:58,719 --> 00:44:00,440
Speaker 5: you just know in the fourth quarter to pull it

930
00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:02,719
Speaker 5: out and win. And I've been on teams when you know,

931
00:44:02,880 --> 00:44:05,040
Speaker 5: no matter what happens, you're just waiting for the other

932
00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:07,560
Speaker 5: team to give you that knockout blow. And that's what

933
00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:09,560
Speaker 5: I've kind of felt like we were last year. But

934
00:44:09,920 --> 00:44:12,000
Speaker 5: I think it's a new year. It's a new team,

935
00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:14,600
Speaker 5: it's a new attitude, and this team really has a

936
00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:17,759
Speaker 5: belief in themselves. And that might sound cliche, but that's

937
00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:21,520
Speaker 5: so underrated when it comes to fourth quarter, winning time,

938
00:44:21,640 --> 00:44:24,800
Speaker 5: crunch time, and excited to see what they do against

939
00:44:24,840 --> 00:44:28,080
Speaker 5: the Rams. And we got an advantageous position because you

940
00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:31,040
Speaker 5: know they're playing that late game tonight against the Bengals.

941
00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:32,760
Speaker 5: It's gonna kick off here in a couple hours.

942
00:44:33,040 --> 00:44:36,080
Speaker 6: Well, in the tapes that I've watched, basically they this

943
00:44:36,120 --> 00:44:38,080
Speaker 6: is another one. Just like we said last week, this

944
00:44:38,360 --> 00:44:42,000
Speaker 6: is a very winnable game here at Lucas Oil. The

945
00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:45,160
Speaker 6: Rams really and truly are in a period of rebuild

946
00:44:46,080 --> 00:44:49,640
Speaker 6: their strengths. They have a terrific coaching staff and offensive

947
00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:53,560
Speaker 6: coach Sean McVeigh and defensive coordinator Raheem Morris will talk

948
00:44:53,600 --> 00:44:56,920
Speaker 6: about it on Wednesday, and two superb players one on

949
00:44:57,040 --> 00:45:00,880
Speaker 6: offense quarterback Stafford and on defense of course Aaron Donell.

950
00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:04,680
Speaker 6: But again very very winnable at home. We got a

951
00:45:04,680 --> 00:45:07,440
Speaker 6: little momentum and confidence going nothing like that.

952
00:45:07,680 --> 00:45:11,480
Speaker 2: Absolutely it matters. That's Rick vent Turrey and Joe Writes
