Speaker 1: the best in the business, Matt Taylor Voice the Colts. Mate.

10
00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:39,440
Speaker 1: I know you're surrounding some slush, some freezing rain, everything

11
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:42,000
Speaker 1: else that you got. Temperatures are going up, temperatures are

12
00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:44,640
Speaker 1: going down. Hey, how's the driveway over at the Taylor's

13
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:47,400
Speaker 1: in the front porch? Well, wait, we're good. I got

14
00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:49,559
Speaker 1: the slush removed a couple of days ago. Now, the boy,

15
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:52,400
Speaker 1: we got some more freezing rain. Where are you posted up?

16
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:54,920
Speaker 1: Where are you physically located right now? My well, I'd

17
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:57,959
Speaker 1: love to say parts unknown and keep it mysterious, but ah,

18
00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:00,040
Speaker 1: screw it. I'll just tell you man, I'm in the

19
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:04,680
Speaker 1: heart of Scottsdale. It's like seventy seven degrees. It is sunny, this,

20
00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:06,959
Speaker 1: you know, a little bit different temperature than it is

21
00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:09,319
Speaker 1: in Indianapolis. And let's just say I won't be going

22
00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 1: downtown for a Friday evening in Indianapolis tonight. I'll probably

23
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:15,040
Speaker 1: be hanging out here in the desert and the mountains.

24
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,920
Speaker 1: Mat that dry air. Soak it in there. Gore Mass

25
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,840
Speaker 1: shoot him straight later on this weekends. Yeah, you know it.

26
00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:24,039
Speaker 1: Hey man, I know it's the offseason right now, but

27
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:26,120
Speaker 1: a lot's going on and it never ends. It's still

28
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:28,760
Speaker 1: the biggest game on the stage even when they're not

29
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:32,040
Speaker 1: in season. The super Bowl has come and gone. Congratulations

30
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:35,039
Speaker 1: to the Rams and Stafford and everybody else. Had a

31
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:38,160
Speaker 1: fun time watching those boys at the parade, everyone taking

32
00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:41,200
Speaker 1: their shirts off. That's what it's about. So Aaron Donald

33
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:43,920
Speaker 1: will be back, Matthew, Stafford, Shaw McVeigh will be back.

34
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:46,760
Speaker 1: So we have established a champion. And I'll we're you

35
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,360
Speaker 1: know us, and I'm talking about you people. You've driven

36
00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:51,160
Speaker 1: on four or five, you guys way up north, you

37
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:54,240
Speaker 1: way down south. We're already thinking the next season, Matt.

38
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:56,240
Speaker 1: We are already thinking of what do they do here?

39
00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:58,920
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, they're salary cap issues. What do we

40
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,440
Speaker 1: do with this potential free agent. Hey, this kid out

41
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 1: of Texas Tech is awful good. I'm saying, the wheels

42
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,080
Speaker 1: are always spending, it doesn't matter what time of the year.

43
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:07,840
Speaker 1: And we're done with the Super Bowl less than a

44
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 1: week absolutely, I mean officially, every team now is in

45
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:14,160
Speaker 1: the off season now that the Super Bowl has concluded,

46
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:16,280
Speaker 1: and we talked about this earlier in the week on

47
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:18,680
Speaker 1: The Colt's official podcast. In less than two weeks, you're

48
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,120
Speaker 1: gonna have the NFL Scouting Combine. So just when you

49
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 1: think it's gonna die down a little bit and the

50
00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:26,679
Speaker 1: NFL is going to disappear from your sports calendar, conscious

51
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 1: if you will, it's coming right back with the Combine.

52
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:32,239
Speaker 1: Then two weeks after that you've got NFL free agency,

53
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:35,119
Speaker 1: then the Draft. So between now and the end of April, man,

54
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:37,400
Speaker 1: the NFL is going to be front and center. Maybe

55
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:40,280
Speaker 1: outside of those two weeks for the March madness, you know,

56
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:43,000
Speaker 1: those first couple of weekends of the nc Double A Tournament,

57
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:45,120
Speaker 1: but pretty much from here on out until the end

58
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 1: of April, the NFL is still this beast that never sleeps.

59
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:51,160
Speaker 1: The NFL Scouting Combine starts to March the first through

60
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:55,120
Speaker 1: the seventh. Enjoy that in Indianapolis while you can, because

61
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:58,320
Speaker 1: it is gone maybe gone after this one, matey. The

62
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:00,639
Speaker 1: other owners around the league said, hey, why are they

63
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:02,359
Speaker 1: getting this thing? We can put on just a good

64
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:05,079
Speaker 1: a show and get as much work efficiently done as

65
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 1: possible as far as medicals go on these prospects, but

66
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:11,640
Speaker 1: the combine no more after this year in Indianapolis. I

67
00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:13,960
Speaker 1: know Jim Mersey was kind of ticked about that, but hey,

68
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:16,639
Speaker 1: it's been a tradition. But it is like the draft

69
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:20,120
Speaker 1: and everything else NFL related. They're yeah, get it to

70
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,080
Speaker 1: people that want to see it that haven't seated up

71
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:24,000
Speaker 1: close and personal. We're gonna bring you all of that,

72
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,920
Speaker 1: all the latest from the Combine as well. Mate, I

73
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:29,399
Speaker 1: know you've been working nonstopping in the offseason getting ready

74
00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 1: for that. But March the first through the seven. You

75
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:33,440
Speaker 1: can find out more information on Colts dot com and

76
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,120
Speaker 1: of course the Colts app. Let's talk some football right

77
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:40,440
Speaker 1: about now. Okay, the Colts they have apparently are roughly

78
00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 1: i'll say thirty seven million in cap space, seventh most

79
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:47,600
Speaker 1: in the league right now. Mate. That's going into this offseason.

80
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:51,320
Speaker 1: That'll probably change with players coming and going, but right now,

81
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:55,080
Speaker 1: it sits at thirty seven million dollars to play with. However,

82
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 1: there is no first round pike. You know this, Carson

83
00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 1: Wentz the first and the third, the first pick in

84
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:04,200
Speaker 1: this upcoming drag number forty seven. Okay. They're also expected

85
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 1: to receive two compensatory picks, one for Danico Autry, one

86
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:10,880
Speaker 1: for Jacobe Prisette, now Chris Ballard, Frank Wright, even ers.

87
00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 1: They're gonna try being a racing the stain of missing

88
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 1: these playoffs just a few weeks ago, and they're going

89
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:19,680
Speaker 1: to return to Colts to the promise land. Now, Mat Tay,

90
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,920
Speaker 1: let's go through some offseason needs. Give me what you think.

91
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,839
Speaker 1: Give me your gut shot at the Colts biggest needs

92
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:28,680
Speaker 1: this offseason, the biggest ones on the board. Yeah, I think.

93
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:30,320
Speaker 1: I think when you look at it, you know, this

94
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:33,960
Speaker 1: offseason looks a lot like last offseason. This time last year,

95
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:36,719
Speaker 1: we're wondering who's going to play quarterback? What are the

96
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,280
Speaker 1: Colts do at left tackle? You know, this time last year,

97
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,400
Speaker 1: Anthon Anthony Costanzo had just retired, you know, as t

98
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:45,039
Speaker 1: Y Hilton coming back in free agency that we talked

99
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 1: about that this time last year, do the Colts have

100
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:50,680
Speaker 1: enough playmaking ability at wide receiver. Do they have enough

101
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:53,599
Speaker 1: depth that edge rushier to get after the quarterback? All

102
00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:56,479
Speaker 1: of those same questions still linger here heading into two

103
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,599
Speaker 1: and twenty two, and this time it's headlined by the

104
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,479
Speaker 1: future Carson Wentz and Frank Riich and Chris Ballard were

105
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,719
Speaker 1: noncommittal at the end of last season about his future.

106
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 1: There's the report last weekend that's surfaced by ESPN Chris

107
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:13,360
Speaker 1: Mortenson on the Colts possibly looking to move on. I

108
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:15,800
Speaker 1: think everything's still in play right here. I think the

109
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:18,480
Speaker 1: Colts are going to let the offseason quarterback search play out,

110
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 1: but there's no question that everything is on the table.

111
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:24,680
Speaker 1: And again, it all kind of starts with quarterback and

112
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,960
Speaker 1: the domino effects around the NFL at quarterback that will

113
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 1: impact the Colts decision on whether or not Carson Wentz

114
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,440
Speaker 1: is back for a year number two in Indianapolis. Yeah,

115
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 1: and the team put out a statement that says, hey, no,

116
00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:40,200
Speaker 1: no roster positions are finalizer have been discussed, you know,

117
00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 1: just a way to say, hey, we are not concrete

118
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:45,000
Speaker 1: on this roster and what we're doing that. So it'd

119
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:46,480
Speaker 1: be out a line for me or you to say

120
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:48,560
Speaker 1: or give our opinion on what's going on, and that's

121
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 1: simply by a report and the word possibly through being

122
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,080
Speaker 1: throwing around. But Coults will make the right decisions, find

123
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:56,520
Speaker 1: out what's going on with the quarterback situation. And in

124
00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:59,280
Speaker 1: order to have a quarterback standing up right in the NFL,

125
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 1: you have to keep them clean and it starts at

126
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:04,040
Speaker 1: the left tackle position. What are we doing with Fisher?

127
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:06,719
Speaker 1: Is he here to stay? Yeah? I think there's a

128
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:10,200
Speaker 1: definite possibility that he comes back because the Colts don't

129
00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:12,560
Speaker 1: have that first round pick. Like you talked about, long

130
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,960
Speaker 1: term answers at left tackle right are usually found in

131
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:19,000
Speaker 1: the first round. Left tackles are that coveted position in

132
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:21,560
Speaker 1: the league or one of them, and until the Colts

133
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,279
Speaker 1: can find that long term solution, they're going to be

134
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 1: looking for viable short term answers. And I think that's

135
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,800
Speaker 1: what Fisher is right. Last season, he coming off that

136
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 1: torn achilles, didn't have an off season because of that

137
00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:36,120
Speaker 1: first year in a new scheme. I thought he was

138
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 1: really solid and run blocking, but it's past protection grade

139
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:41,359
Speaker 1: wasn't as good as it has been in the past

140
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:44,120
Speaker 1: for him. At the end of last season, Chris Ballard

141
00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:46,320
Speaker 1: said that, Hey, Eric Fisher's got some really good football

142
00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:48,760
Speaker 1: still left in him. He's got some good things left

143
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:51,039
Speaker 1: in the tank, And I would tend to agree with that.

144
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:53,400
Speaker 1: And again, given where the Colts are, not having a

145
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:56,599
Speaker 1: first round pick and needing a left tackle, I wouldn't

146
00:06:56,600 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 1: be surprised at all if Fisher is given another opportunity

147
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:01,919
Speaker 1: need to come back to the Colts. You know, the

148
00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:05,120
Speaker 1: other options are making, you know, a big free agent pickup,

149
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:08,280
Speaker 1: or rely on a rookie' drafted outside of round one.

150
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:10,000
Speaker 1: And we know the Colts are not going to take

151
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 1: a tackle high in the draft if he's not that

152
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 1: long term answer at again, one of the more important

153
00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:18,720
Speaker 1: positions on any NFL team. Yeah, don't forget that. You know,

154
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:20,920
Speaker 1: Fisher's coming off an injury, an injury it kept him

155
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:22,760
Speaker 1: out of a game for a while, obviously Latin this

156
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,600
Speaker 1: past season's playoffs, but the season before. So he's gonna

157
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:27,840
Speaker 1: he's gonna bounce back this year too. After a major

158
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:30,680
Speaker 1: injury like that is usually the better year. Obviously the

159
00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:32,880
Speaker 1: first year. They're just getting back to their routine. Now,

160
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:35,240
Speaker 1: let's switch this over to pass rusher on the other

161
00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:37,840
Speaker 1: side of the ball, don't Forget Denico Autry, we mentioned

162
00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 1: him earlier. Justin Houston, that's over double digit sacks that

163
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,560
Speaker 1: was gone out the door last season, may tay, what

164
00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:45,160
Speaker 1: do we do with the pass rush? How much do

165
00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 1: they have to look into that when it comes free

166
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:48,800
Speaker 1: agent time? Yeah, I mean at the end of the

167
00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 1: of the season. You know that the end of the

168
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:52,680
Speaker 1: year press conference that Chris Ballard had, he talked about

169
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:56,440
Speaker 1: maybe the Colts needed some proven pass rush personnel last

170
00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:58,920
Speaker 1: season because they want to play in waves. They want

171
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:00,840
Speaker 1: to have, you know, eight fresh bodies that can get

172
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:03,520
Speaker 1: after the quarterback. They chose, as you said, not to

173
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 1: resign guys like Justin Houston or Tunico Autry. They rolled

174
00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:10,120
Speaker 1: the dice that gambled with some of their developmental pieces

175
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 1: and young players, giving them a bigger opportunity. And this

176
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 1: offseason heading into March, some of those players are free

177
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:21,040
Speaker 1: agents like Kumoko Terrey, Al Kadeen, Mohammad, Tae Kwon Lewis.

178
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:23,080
Speaker 1: What do you bring back from that group? What do

179
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:26,360
Speaker 1: you prioritize of those guys? Can guys like Quitty pay

180
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:30,400
Speaker 1: and Diodangbo take off in year number two under Gus Bradley.

181
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 1: Now you know now that he's in here as the

182
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:35,440
Speaker 1: defensive coordinator. So I wouldn't be shocked at all to

183
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:37,280
Speaker 1: see the Colt to make a run at a veteran

184
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 1: pass rusher this offseason to kind of help supplement the

185
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:44,280
Speaker 1: development of those long term answers like Dio Dangbo and

186
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:47,120
Speaker 1: Quitty Pay, guys they drafted last year in the first

187
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:49,000
Speaker 1: and second round of the draft. I'm with you, and

188
00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:51,240
Speaker 1: I do hope that Quitty Pay has that it factor

189
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:53,480
Speaker 1: that we've heard about. Brian Baker, the Colts let them go.

190
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,880
Speaker 1: The defensive line coach loves the kid. Obviously a high

191
00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,160
Speaker 1: round draft choice or a high draft choice in the

192
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:02,320
Speaker 1: first round recently at last year's draft. But Quitty Pay

193
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:04,440
Speaker 1: second year. Bill Polian used to say it all the

194
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:07,040
Speaker 1: time that second year jump in the NFL is the

195
00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:09,560
Speaker 1: most significant, and it's one of those that those offensive

196
00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:13,000
Speaker 1: tackles and defensive ends make the biggest jump. So Dial,

197
00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:15,160
Speaker 1: we're talking to you, Quitty, We're talking to you as well.

198
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:18,240
Speaker 1: Can't wait to watch what they do in their sophomore years.

199
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:19,880
Speaker 1: If you will, now real quick before we go to

200
00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:24,040
Speaker 1: break wide receiver, Maytay wide receiver on the Colts right now,

201
00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:26,920
Speaker 1: It starts with Michael Pittman junior. We do have some

202
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,520
Speaker 1: question marks after that. What are we doing? Are we

203
00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:33,000
Speaker 1: going after some young guys free agency again? Coming around?

204
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:35,040
Speaker 1: Give me some names, give me something. Yeah, well, we

205
00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:38,760
Speaker 1: know Michael Pittman, he was Carson Wentz's favorite target last season.

206
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,120
Speaker 1: He went over a thousand yards last year. It actually

207
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:44,640
Speaker 1: became the first wide receiver to go over a thousand

208
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:49,199
Speaker 1: yards with Carson Wentz as their quarterback. But outside of Pittman,

209
00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 1: no other Colts wide receiver had more than three hundred

210
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:55,000
Speaker 1: and eighty five receiving yards and that was the first

211
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:58,160
Speaker 1: time that occurred to the Colts since nineteen eighty eight.

212
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:01,320
Speaker 1: So it does ja. Yeah, So obviously, you know, you

213
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:04,360
Speaker 1: talk about firepower and as you said, t why Hilton's

214
00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:07,600
Speaker 1: contemplating retirement and he's a free agent. So between those

215
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:09,520
Speaker 1: two things, there's a pretty good chance that he's not

216
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:13,440
Speaker 1: coming back next season. Zach Pascal's a free agent. Mike

217
00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:17,280
Speaker 1: Stron basically had a sure ear. Desmond Patman, I think

218
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,360
Speaker 1: is an interesting guy. He's got a lot of upside.

219
00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:21,800
Speaker 1: Big body, Yeah, yeah, big body guy. He made that

220
00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:24,520
Speaker 1: big play, you know, on Christmas Night in Arizona. I

221
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:27,000
Speaker 1: think Ashton Dulin's got a lot of upside. But bottom

222
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,680
Speaker 1: line is, though the Colts don't have a ton of

223
00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:33,160
Speaker 1: proven production, those guys have not been counted upon, you know,

224
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:36,080
Speaker 1: to get you, you know, seven hundred eight hundred yards

225
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 1: receiving in a season. And so it's gonna be really

226
00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:41,440
Speaker 1: interesting if Zach Pascal and t Why Hilton do not

227
00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:44,280
Speaker 1: come back in free agency. So we'll see how much

228
00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:47,120
Speaker 1: belief there is in the returning talent based on what

229
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:50,360
Speaker 1: the Colts do starting in free agency. Remember that, remember

230
00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:52,520
Speaker 1: what you say, because everybody loves splash, but in order

231
00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:54,439
Speaker 1: to get to splash, you gotta produce on the field.

232
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:57,040
Speaker 1: Ashton Dueling, you know, that's a guy that's gonna make

233
00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:59,640
Speaker 1: it difference. Michael Strott, that's a guy that's gonna make

234
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:02,199
Speaker 1: it differ. Prince in the year two. And they're rare athletes.

235
00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:04,760
Speaker 1: The speed, that size of Dulan has same thing with

236
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:08,000
Speaker 1: Michael stron Like, We're okay, folks, don't just because you know,

237
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:11,120
Speaker 1: Chad Johnson isn't coming out of retirement to join the Colts,

238
00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:13,320
Speaker 1: don't worry about it. We've got some pass catchers and

239
00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:16,520
Speaker 1: young guys with big bodies, you mentioned Desmond Patman as well.

240
00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:18,360
Speaker 1: I do like where we're at. I do think we

241
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:20,720
Speaker 1: need a veteran or two and figure out what's going on.

242
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:22,679
Speaker 1: Like you said with Pasco and t Y Hilton. I

243
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:24,760
Speaker 1: love it, mate. So hold on of minutes, Hold on

244
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:26,400
Speaker 1: a minute. We've got more talk coming up there. We're

245
00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:28,320
Speaker 1: gonna do that when we close out the show. But

246
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:32,040
Speaker 1: next up, a guy that's high end demand, high end

247
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:34,960
Speaker 1: demand around the NFL and his rise to where he's

248
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:38,440
Speaker 1: at in the NFL right now as offensive coordinator pretty significant,

249
00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:41,320
Speaker 1: pretty quick, we're talking about the Colts. Marcus Brady, the

250
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:44,640
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator. Now, he's fresh off of victory he won

251
00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:46,920
Speaker 1: as the head coach of the East West Shrine game.

252
00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:50,160
Speaker 1: He's going to talk about that experience, which is really cool.

253
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:51,920
Speaker 1: I don't care where you go. If you're a head

254
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:54,720
Speaker 1: coach and you win a football game, that's doing your job.

255
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:58,040
Speaker 1: It's tough enough as it is. So Marcus Brady, congratulations.

256
00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:00,280
Speaker 1: We'll get the latest on that, plus his first year

277
00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:00,240
Speaker 1: You know what does that mean for the Colts? Does

278
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:02,360
Speaker 1: that mean for the rest of the NFL in terms

279
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:06,280
Speaker 1: of roster construction, personnel? What do you need to be

280
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:09,240

306

Speaker 1: how well what we do is like as soon as

307
00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:24,280
Speaker 1: the whistle blows to end the Super Bowl, we're looking at, Hey,

308
00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:26,680
Speaker 1: how many cornerbacks will we carry next year? You know

309
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:29,560
Speaker 1: what I mean. It's like anyway, all the latest information

310
00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:32,400
Speaker 1: on the Colts Audio Network, anywhere you get your podcast.

311
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:35,560
Speaker 1: It's a great one, so downloaded. Now let's talk about

312
00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:39,360
Speaker 1: Marcus Brady, the offensive coordinator of your Colts. Earlier in

313
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:42,240
Speaker 1: the week, he joined Matt Taylor to discuss his experience

314
00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:44,400
Speaker 1: at the East West Shrine Bowl a few weeks ago.

315
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:48,160
Speaker 1: Brady starts talking about what the opportunity to be a

316
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:51,480
Speaker 1: head coach in a college all star game. Pretty cool, man,

317
00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:53,560
Speaker 1: Pretty cool? What that meant to him? Oh, it was

318
00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:55,720
Speaker 1: a great experience. You know. I enjoyed my time there,

319
00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:58,280
Speaker 1: working with a different people across the league. Obviously, we

320
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:00,360
Speaker 1: had a couple of guys from here on staff, UM

321
00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:02,480
Speaker 1: working together and then just all of us kind of

322
00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 1: being in a different role. Um. That was a great

323
00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:06,960
Speaker 1: experience for all of us, and you know for me

324
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:10,120
Speaker 1: particularly just just you know, just dealing with other issues

325
00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:12,560
Speaker 1: that you know as a head coach and you know,

326
00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:16,320
Speaker 1: managing everything all sides of the ball and special team. UM.

327
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,200
Speaker 1: So it was good. How did that, How did that

328
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:20,640
Speaker 1: opportunity come about for you to be the head coach

329
00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:23,200
Speaker 1: of of one of those teams in the Shrine ball? Well,

330
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:26,640
Speaker 1: I did it two years ago as the coordinator UM

331
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:29,640
Speaker 1: down there when it was in Tampa. UM. And then

332
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:33,280
Speaker 1: you know Chris, you know Ballard, he kind of form formats,

333
00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:35,240
Speaker 1: puts a list together of some of the coaches on

334
00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:39,120
Speaker 1: staff that would be interested, and UM he reached out

335
00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:41,800
Speaker 1: to us and UM he said, you're gonna, I'm gonna

336
00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:44,720
Speaker 1: put your name into UM be a candidate to get

337
00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:46,840
Speaker 1: selected as a head coach. And then I got the

338
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:50,240
Speaker 1: call or got the call maybe like a week before

339
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:52,480
Speaker 1: was going to happen. And um, so one of the

340
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 1: ones they called and selected me. I was like, yeah,

341
00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:55,800
Speaker 1: I definitely would love the opportunity. Yeah, I mean that

342
00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:58,200
Speaker 1: that's That's an absolute no brainer right there. I mean,

343
00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:01,120
Speaker 1: that's that's got to make you feel pretty proud to

344
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:04,120
Speaker 1: be selected in at a pretty deep candidate pool I

345
00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:06,600
Speaker 1: would assume to be the head coach of one of

346
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:09,560
Speaker 1: those All Star does. Yeah, definitely feel honored that. You

347
00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:13,000
Speaker 1: know that that shows me for that opportunity and grateful

348
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:14,840
Speaker 1: for the you know, be able to get that experience there.

349
00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:17,840
Speaker 1: Also there Colts tight ends coach Clayton Adams, he was

350
00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:21,360
Speaker 1: your offensive coordinator and then quality control coach for the Colts.

351
00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:25,240
Speaker 1: Gerard Johnson, he was the quarterbacks coach on your squad

352
00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,240
Speaker 1: in that All Star Game. What was that experience like

353
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:29,440
Speaker 1: for those guys? I thought of that one for them.

354
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:31,560
Speaker 1: You know, they were able to you know, get up

355
00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:35,600
Speaker 1: install the three of us kind of because we were

356
00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:37,800
Speaker 1: all three together, we kind of put in a little

357
00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:39,440
Speaker 1: bit of you know, some of our offense. So we

358
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:42,800
Speaker 1: all work together in that aspect of it. But you know,

359
00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:45,880
Speaker 1: I allow them to kind of get the true experience

360
00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:47,720
Speaker 1: as far as you know, Clayton did the install. He

361
00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:51,240
Speaker 1: ran the room in the offensive meeting room. M Gerard

362
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:53,200
Speaker 1: obviously ran the room in the quarterbacks room. To the

363
00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:57,040
Speaker 1: phenomenal job there and he did the past game install,

364
00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:59,360
Speaker 1: Clayton did the run game install. So you know, we

365
00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:01,080
Speaker 1: kind of all worked each other there. Yeah, I mean

366
00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:04,919
Speaker 1: that's all of these guys come from different backgrounds, different offenses,

367
00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:09,199
Speaker 1: different coaching trees, if you will. How collaborative is it

368
00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:11,800
Speaker 1: putting together an offense for a college All Star game?

369
00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:13,760
Speaker 1: Because you don't want to get right. You only have

370
00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:15,439
Speaker 1: so much time with these guys. You don't want to

371
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:18,399
Speaker 1: get two complex two nuance. So what's that balance between

372
00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:21,679
Speaker 1: putting in the offense but also keeping it manageable for

373
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:25,560
Speaker 1: everybody involved? Right? Well, the thing is that that was

374
00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:27,960
Speaker 1: easier because I have coached in this game. I still

375
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,879
Speaker 1: had that playbook from two years ago. Nice, and it

376
00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:33,600
Speaker 1: was essentially, you know, a cults offense, maybe a few

377
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:35,359
Speaker 1: a few little different things that would just kind of

378
00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:38,959
Speaker 1: trying out some other stuff and so and then the

379
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:41,840
Speaker 1: fact that you know, Clayton was the coordinator, we weren't

380
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:44,360
Speaker 1: really trying to get too much new stuff collaborator from

381
00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:46,600
Speaker 1: other staffs. It was more so, okay, this is the

382
00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:48,760
Speaker 1: offense we're gonna run. We only have a short amount

383
00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:50,159
Speaker 1: of time, so you can only teach so much. And

384
00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:51,639
Speaker 1: it was limited to what you can do in the

385
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:53,960
Speaker 1: game because you can only be in two by two formation,

386
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:59,000
Speaker 1: you can't motion, no shifts, so it's pretty dialed down

387
00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:01,840
Speaker 1: to what you can and do. That's Marcus Brady, offensive

388
00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:04,960
Speaker 1: coordinator for the Indianapolis Colts, fresh off the win as

389
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:08,120
Speaker 1: the head coach of the West team from the East

390
00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:12,479
Speaker 1: West Shrine Game. How much coaching and development happens that

391
00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:14,879
Speaker 1: week leading up to the game in practice with the players,

392
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:17,760
Speaker 1: between the players and the coaching staff, Well quite a bit,

393
00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:19,640
Speaker 1: i would say, even in a short time in that week,

394
00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:22,440
Speaker 1: because you're teaching them new schemes, you're teaching them new terminology.

395
00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:25,000
Speaker 1: But at the same time, we're also there to evaluate

396
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:26,280
Speaker 1: because you know, these are guys that's gonna be in

397
00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:29,240
Speaker 1: the draft as well, and so you're trying to evaluate

398
00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:31,400
Speaker 1: how they interact in the you know, in the classroom,

399
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,080
Speaker 1: can they take their teaching to on the field, how

400
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:37,360
Speaker 1: they interact with people out there, just as you're trying

401
00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:40,480
Speaker 1: to learn the person. But then I'm saying, you know,

402
00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:43,040
Speaker 1: you're teaching them stuff that they may not have got

403
00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:45,760
Speaker 1: that type of coaching um down, you know in college,

404
00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:49,560
Speaker 1: because you're teaching me no more of a pro style system,

405
00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:52,680
Speaker 1: and they I thought, for the most part, all the players,

406
00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:54,240
Speaker 1: I mean they took to it and they I thought

407
00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:56,920
Speaker 1: they did a great job of kind of being culturable.

408
00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,880
Speaker 1: That's Marcus Brady with this offensive coordinator for the cole

409
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:03,159
Speaker 1: You talked about this earlier, but just how different was

410
00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:05,440
Speaker 1: it because you're the head coach, you know, going from

411
00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:07,600
Speaker 1: the offensive coordinator for the Colts now you're the head

412
00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:10,160
Speaker 1: coach in this All Star game. How different is it

413
00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:13,000
Speaker 1: having to to manage the game. You're the head guy, right,

414
00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:14,760
Speaker 1: You have to manage the clock, you have to weigh

415
00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:17,800
Speaker 1: fourth down decisions. You have all these different voices in

416
00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:20,040
Speaker 1: your head How different was that aspect of the job

417
00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:25,360
Speaker 1: for you? Yeah, I'm definitely different as far as well.

418
00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:29,080
Speaker 1: The opening drive drove down the field. You know, I

419
00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:31,840
Speaker 1: started off calling the game, but we drove right down

420
00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:33,560
Speaker 1: the field and got into a decision. It was fourth

421
00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:35,040
Speaker 1: and fourth and goal to the the two yard line. What

422
00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:38,520
Speaker 1: do you do? Of course, I went for it, didn't

423
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:40,959
Speaker 1: get it, but breagain, defense went out there, got three

424
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:43,240
Speaker 1: right now, they punted. It gave us great field position.

425
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:45,600
Speaker 1: We drove right back down to sport a touchdown, So

426
00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:48,280
Speaker 1: that felt good. And then you just make decisions. Okay,

427
00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:50,879
Speaker 1: do I take the opportune do I put our kicker?

428
00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:54,640
Speaker 1: I think he attempted like a fifty yard field goal.

429
00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:57,120
Speaker 1: I think he missed the next one, but still give

430
00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:58,680
Speaker 1: him another shot the next time, and you hit it.

431
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:01,840
Speaker 1: Didn't have challenges in the game, so I didn't have

432
00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:05,119
Speaker 1: to deal with that, um. So those are kind of

433
00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:08,600
Speaker 1: some of the situations that had to deal with and

434
00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:10,720
Speaker 1: the potential you know, time out before the half, of

435
00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:12,600
Speaker 1: when to use it when the defense was out there,

436
00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:15,480
Speaker 1: and things like that. But it was a good experience.

437
00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:18,960
Speaker 1: Did that experience, did you come away with a bigger

438
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:22,720
Speaker 1: appreciation for NFL head coaches and maybe a bigger thirst

439
00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:25,000
Speaker 1: for being a head coach in the NFL? You know

440
00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:28,679
Speaker 1: for yourself one day, Oh, no doubt, and definitely appreciate

441
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:31,600
Speaker 1: that opportunity. And you learn from you know, guys that

442
00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:33,920
Speaker 1: make them are in those positions now across the league

443
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:35,840
Speaker 1: for thirty two guys that aren't doing it, and you know,

444
00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:38,399
Speaker 1: have to manage the game that way. But I'm always

445
00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:40,520
Speaker 1: even you know, at the corner now, I'm always putting

446
00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:44,280
Speaker 1: my um myself in those positions. Okay, what would I

447
00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:46,760
Speaker 1: do here at the same time. I mean, Frank and

448
00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:49,480
Speaker 1: I do have those conversations, you know, before the game starts,

449
00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:51,840
Speaker 1: so you know, you're preparing yourself that if we do

450
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:53,920
Speaker 1: get into situations that way, it's not just a knee

451
00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 1: jerk reaction, it's you know, we've had these discussions. Some

452
00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:59,200
Speaker 1: parts of that well, absolutely that you know, the East

453
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:01,919
Speaker 1: West Shrine, you know, the Senior Bowl. Those are probably

454
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:05,679
Speaker 1: the two big ones in terms of draft development and

455
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:07,840
Speaker 1: getting all of these guys in one place to kind

456
00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:10,600
Speaker 1: of see how they stack up apples to apples comparison

457
00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:15,640
Speaker 1: in terms of competition. How beneficial was that experience for

458
00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:18,400
Speaker 1: you going into this draft for the Colts? And just

459
00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:21,760
Speaker 1: why are these showcase games, these NFL or these these

460
00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:24,200
Speaker 1: college all star games? I should say, why are they

461
00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 1: such a good radar for who might be available for

462
00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:30,040
Speaker 1: you in the draft when you guys are picking starting

463
00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:32,040
Speaker 1: in the second round. Yeah, you just get opportunity to

464
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:36,040
Speaker 1: get a close ubview of who these guys are. And

465
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:38,479
Speaker 1: I always think that it's even more you know, being

466
00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:40,640
Speaker 1: able to coach that game, It's more important being able

467
00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:43,080
Speaker 1: to get that time in the classrooms and then on

468
00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:45,560
Speaker 1: the field had practice. More so, even just watching them

469
00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:49,520
Speaker 1: in at the game because you know, the games they

470
00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:51,600
Speaker 1: just go. You know, different things happened, comes up. You

471
00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:53,639
Speaker 1: may not get those players, may not get an opportunity

472
00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:55,960
Speaker 1: to the ball and go their way. But at practice

473
00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:58,320
Speaker 1: they you know, you're able to see how they compete,

474
00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:01,879
Speaker 1: how they doing one on one settings. In one on

475
00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:04,720
Speaker 1: one competition and then seven on seven team situations, you

476
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:06,080
Speaker 1: get a little bit more. And then you just get

477
00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:08,359
Speaker 1: to interact with them and discuss with them, make a

478
00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:10,320
Speaker 1: correction when them in the walk through, see if they

479
00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:12,600
Speaker 1: can make that that correction from the walk through and

480
00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:14,960
Speaker 1: do it and actually in practice, and so you gain

481
00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:18,320
Speaker 1: a lot from from those experiences. That's Marcus Brady, offensive

482
00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:21,240
Speaker 1: coordinator for the Indianapolis Colts. Let's go back and talk

483
00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:24,760
Speaker 1: about you your your first year as the OC in Indianapolis.

484
00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:26,840
Speaker 1: What were your big takeaways, you know, your first year

485
00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:32,240
Speaker 1: on the job orchestrating or partly orchestrating this Colts offense. Right, Um,

486
00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:34,639
Speaker 1: you know, you know, being in this league, you know

487
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:36,840
Speaker 1: it's a tough league. But you know, I thought we

488
00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:40,600
Speaker 1: did a lot of good things offensively. Um overall, obviously

489
00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:42,879
Speaker 1: didn't end the way we wanted to end, but we

490
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:45,200
Speaker 1: did some really good things, something that we can build off,

491
00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:48,240
Speaker 1: you know as the offense and things that we're going

492
00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:50,320
Speaker 1: to take a look at this offseason to get improved

493
00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:53,840
Speaker 1: and get better. But it was a great experience. Loved it.

494
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:56,040
Speaker 1: Love the guys that I'm able to work with, both

495
00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:58,840
Speaker 1: you know, on staff as well as the players that

496
00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:02,600
Speaker 1: I'm working with. How much of the Colts offensive game

497
00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:05,280
Speaker 1: plan throughout the week leading into Sunday, how much of

498
00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:08,639
Speaker 1: that is a collaborative effort between you, Frank Reich and

499
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,639
Speaker 1: the rest of the offensive staff. It's very collaborative. You know.

500
00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:15,320
Speaker 1: We all got like our sections. You know, someone's working

501
00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:18,359
Speaker 1: you know, we have coach working red zone. We have

502
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:22,160
Speaker 1: a guy working short yardis goal line, you know, run game,

503
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:24,280
Speaker 1: you know straws looking at run game. And then we

504
00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:27,080
Speaker 1: all get back together, you know, we bring our those

505
00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:29,399
Speaker 1: like someone hits that, but it's usually like two or

506
00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:31,679
Speaker 1: three guys in that area so that they could bounce

507
00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:34,120
Speaker 1: ideas off of each other. But then we come together,

508
00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:37,800
Speaker 1: you know, um, myself, Frank, and then we all come together, Okay,

509
00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:39,760
Speaker 1: these are the thoughts. Is what we like, this is

510
00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:41,560
Speaker 1: why we like it. And then we kind of go

511
00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:44,560
Speaker 1: through the process. We don't like that, maybe not or Okay,

512
00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:47,800
Speaker 1: we love this. Just keep that in so it's very collaborative.

513
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:50,639
Speaker 1: We have a great staff, great minds, couldn't bring the

514
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:53,520
Speaker 1: plan together. Marcus Brady with US offensive coordinator for the

515
00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:55,840
Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts final A couple of things. I know this

516
00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:57,639
Speaker 1: guy's on the other side of the ball, but just

517
00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:01,640
Speaker 1: your thoughts on on new Colts defensive coordinator Gus Bradley

518
00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:03,760
Speaker 1: now in the fold and what he adds from a

519
00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:06,880
Speaker 1: personality standpoint and from a coaching standpoint to this cult

520
00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:09,760
Speaker 1: staff overall. Yeah, I mean from a coaching standpoint, I mean,

521
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:12,960
Speaker 1: you know, if coached against him, UM, you know the

522
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,520
Speaker 1: last four years, he's always done a great job with

523
00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:18,280
Speaker 1: his defense. His very sound UM and what they do.

524
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:22,360
Speaker 1: UM had a lot of success. You know his time

525
00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:26,040
Speaker 1: went Jacksonville Charters last year at the Raiders. UM, I

526
00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:29,200
Speaker 1: thought he did a great job that that year as well.

527
00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:31,920
Speaker 1: And then UM, as far as I haven't really got

528
00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:34,080
Speaker 1: a chance to know him too much. You know when

529
00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:36,200
Speaker 1: he when he got the job, sent him a text

530
00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:39,000
Speaker 1: and then I met him, um briefly in the building,

531
00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:40,960
Speaker 1: but even like this week being in the building, I

532
00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:43,920
Speaker 1: mean he's got like interviews every hour to his staff.

533
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:46,159
Speaker 1: I haven't had a chance and you know, talk too

534
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:47,880
Speaker 1: much with him, but he was like a great guy,

535
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:50,880
Speaker 1: looking forward to working with him. Um, I know he's

536
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:53,440
Speaker 1: had he's had a ton of success in this league. Um,

537
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:55,360
Speaker 1: players are gonna respect him, and I know he's gonna

538
00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:56,680
Speaker 1: do a great job for that side of the ball.

539
00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:59,160
Speaker 1: All right, coach, Lastly, what what about you? What does

540
00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:02,560
Speaker 1: your offseason look like? Let's say, between now and the

541
00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:06,120
Speaker 1: combine later this month into February, the start of next

542
00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:08,639
Speaker 1: month in March, right, So, I mean the balance right

543
00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:12,119
Speaker 1: now is evaluating, you know, evaluate free agents for us,

544
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:14,159
Speaker 1: We're going to evaluate guys coming out in the draft,

545
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:17,679
Speaker 1: you know, right, reports on that, but then at the

546
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:20,439
Speaker 1: same time going back and evatting our own guys and

547
00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:23,960
Speaker 1: evaluating what we do as the offense schematically, you know,

548
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:27,280
Speaker 1: how can we improve, how we can get better, whether

549
00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:28,720
Speaker 1: it's do we need to change a scheme, do we

550
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:30,119
Speaker 1: need to add a scheme? We know we're doing some

551
00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:33,200
Speaker 1: research watching some other teams are going or maybe could

552
00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:36,000
Speaker 1: just be a minor twink of you know, a player, well,

553
00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:38,760
Speaker 1: let's ask let's teach this player a different technique or

554
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:40,840
Speaker 1: maybe he just needs a player needs to improve that

555
00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:43,720
Speaker 1: technique to make this play get better. So it's just

556
00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:46,240
Speaker 1: about collaboraty, just kind of going through and finding ways

557
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:48,359
Speaker 1: and you know we could get better overall. Yeah, I

558
00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:50,320
Speaker 1: mean people ask me all the time, and I'm sure

559
00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:52,080
Speaker 1: you get this a lot too. It's you know, once

560
00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:54,560
Speaker 1: the season's over, coach, you know, what do you do?

561
00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:56,720
Speaker 1: What keeps you busy? You just talked about the free

562
00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:01,280
Speaker 1: agent profiles that you put together. How extend how exhaustive

563
00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:04,040
Speaker 1: is that? You know, you talk about a profile, What

564
00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:06,520
Speaker 1: does that mean? How much effort goes into putting one

565
00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:09,640
Speaker 1: of those together? Yeah? I mean, you know, scouting department,

566
00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:11,600
Speaker 1: they narrowed down and give you a list of guys

567
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:14,600
Speaker 1: that that could possibly be targets for us. And then

568
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:16,840
Speaker 1: you know, as coaches, we'll go through and just you know,

569
00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:19,920
Speaker 1: watch their film, see how they play, you know, see

570
00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:22,600
Speaker 1: what their strengths. The waitness is, how can they you know,

571
00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:24,159
Speaker 1: if we do after guy like that, how can he

572
00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:28,719
Speaker 1: improve us? You know, offensively, defensively? You know, how can

573
00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:31,159
Speaker 1: we utilize that skill set? And should this be a

574
00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:33,560
Speaker 1: guy that we go targets? So that's kind of what

575
00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:36,760
Speaker 1: we've got to go through. Indeed, that's Marcus Brady, offensive

576
00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:39,800
Speaker 1: coordinator for the Indianapolis Colts. Coach. Thanks as always for

577
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:42,359
Speaker 1: the time. No, you're always a busy man, like we

578
00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:45,320
Speaker 1: just chronicled. Good luck this offseason, good luck heading into

579
00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:47,479
Speaker 1: the combine, and we'll talk to you down the road

580
00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:49,720
Speaker 1: as we get closer to the offseason workout program in

581
00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:52,359
Speaker 1: the spring. Sounds good, Matt, Thanks for having me again. Mattey,

582
00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:55,920
Speaker 1: the rise of Marcus Brady. You don't slow guys down

583
00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:58,320
Speaker 1: like that in the NFL. From coming from Canada as

584
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:01,359
Speaker 1: a former quarterback and right up the offensive ranks at

585
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:04,760
Speaker 1: a very very hurriedly pace like that. The guy's a superstar,

586
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:07,200
Speaker 1: you know it. Yeah, good dude too. I mean really

587
00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:10,040
Speaker 1: really good guy, laid back as you just heard, easy

588
00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:12,560
Speaker 1: to talk to, and I mean he's in a really

589
00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:14,880
Speaker 1: good spot. I mean right now, if if you are

590
00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:17,760
Speaker 1: an assistant coach for the Indianapolis Colts, you're in a

591
00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:20,399
Speaker 1: good position because in each of the last two seasons, right,

592
00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:23,960
Speaker 1: Nick Sirianni's a head coach. Matt Eberflus is a head coach, right,

593
00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:26,080
Speaker 1: I mean, anybody that does this for a living at

594
00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:28,359
Speaker 1: this level has aspirations to be a head coach in

595
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:31,159
Speaker 1: the National Football League. You know, Marcus Brady's name is

596
00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:32,639
Speaker 1: going to be in that mix here, so well, I

597
00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:34,720
Speaker 1: think way sooner than later. Oh, in the mix and

598
00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:37,960
Speaker 1: in the headsets they the guy's a head coach one day.

599
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,600
Speaker 1: Who knows if it's next season, three seasons, ten seasons

600
00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:42,560
Speaker 1: down the road. That's what kind of guy he is.

601
00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:45,280
Speaker 1: Good stuff by you, mate, take keep doing those interviews

602
00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:48,359
Speaker 1: with the coaching staff, because the door that you talked

603
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:50,480
Speaker 1: about like that, you know that. I mean, gosh darn,

604
00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:52,680
Speaker 1: we gotta fill up. We still gotta fill out spots

605
00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:54,720
Speaker 1: on this coach and roster on both sides of the ball,

606
00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:57,040
Speaker 1: no doubt. So this is gonna be the biggest changeover

607
00:27:57,119 --> 00:28:00,200
Speaker 1: and you know just quantity of turnover that we've seen

608
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:03,120
Speaker 1: in this era of football. If you Wilson's Frank Reich

609
00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:07,040
Speaker 1: took over in twenty eighteen, basically an entire new defensive

610
00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:10,240
Speaker 1: staff with Gus Bradley and his assistant coaches. Some change

611
00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:12,280
Speaker 1: over here on the offensive side of the ball as well,

612
00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:16,560
Speaker 1: which is gonna impact who's who's that wide receiver coach

613
00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:22,520
Speaker 1: gonna be, mate, we shall see, We shall sirtieserties there

Speaker 1: all right, folks, ll anywhere after this quick time out?

615
00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:27,600

00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:31,840
Speaker 1: What teams do traditionally after they get waxed in the

Speaker 1: bag coming up. Plus we got the form printing Union

629
00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:12,720
Speaker 1: questionable a week. I forgot one Super Bowl story that

630
00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:15,960
Speaker 1: I thought was funny. Yeah, so I'm I'm over at

631
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:20,360
Speaker 1: an Area La hotel if you will. And Danny Nucci,

632
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:23,400
Speaker 1: a guy who acted in Titanic and Eraser and you

633
00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:26,680
Speaker 1: know the rock and all the Crimson Tide. He's a

634
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:29,040
Speaker 1: buddy of ours, Danny Knucci. Okay, so he's got this

635
00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:31,680
Speaker 1: new look with glasses. He's got salt and pepper, gray

636
00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:34,200
Speaker 1: hair and stuff, and a slight beard. And so we're

637
00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:36,320
Speaker 1: at this hotel and Super Bowl. We're in the lobby

638
00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:38,440
Speaker 1: and guess who walks in. You can't miss him from

639
00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:42,920
Speaker 1: across the block, the Big Man, Shaquille O'Neill. Okay, okay,

640
00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:45,280
Speaker 1: all right, so we're sitting there at any time. I

641
00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:47,280
Speaker 1: just saw him in Houston too, not too long ago,

642
00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:48,960
Speaker 1: a few months back, where we were playing the Texans.

643
00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:50,480
Speaker 1: I saw him at a hotel and had a chance

644
00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:52,400
Speaker 1: to say hide to him there, but this time not

645
00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:54,520
Speaker 1: too much chances are you just? Are you just going

646
00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:57,440
Speaker 1: up to Shack tapping him on the shoulder and saying, hey, hey, Shack,

647
00:29:57,480 --> 00:29:59,640
Speaker 1: how you doing Jeffrey Gordon? No, no, no, no, But

648
00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:01,600
Speaker 1: I did in Houston because we were both waiting at

649
00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:03,960
Speaker 1: the car valet waiting for our car, So he was

650
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:05,880
Speaker 1: ten feet away and I finally went up, big dog,

651
00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:08,160
Speaker 1: how are you doing? Diesel? What's going? Hey man? How

652
00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:10,280
Speaker 1: you do it? He's really fun, really sweet? You know,

653
00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:13,200
Speaker 1: he's very gregarious. He's got his crew around him and everything.

654
00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:15,400
Speaker 1: It was great. So so anyway, we're walking it we

655
00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:17,080
Speaker 1: see the big man coming in. We're over off to

656
00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:18,680
Speaker 1: the side, so he kind of veers off to the

657
00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:21,960
Speaker 1: right and doesn't stop walking, but looks at my friend

658
00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:24,400
Speaker 1: Danny Nucci and he goes, hey, Harold though, good to

659
00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:29,120
Speaker 1: see you. And then we look and we didn't put

660
00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:32,080
Speaker 1: it together. Then he does. He sort of looks like

661
00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:36,160
Speaker 1: HAROLDO Rivera, I mean, and we just about spit up laughing.

662
00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:38,160
Speaker 1: But the best part about it, don't mat The best

663
00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:40,200
Speaker 1: part about his Shack did not miss a beat. He

664
00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:43,080
Speaker 1: didn't stop. He didn't he didn't pause, he didn't nothing.

665
00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:45,720
Speaker 1: He just kept walking right by it. He goes, hey, Roldo,

666
00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:49,360
Speaker 1: you know that big voice. Oh my gosh, we were dying.

667
00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:53,040
Speaker 1: Not exactly, we were just buckled over dying, man, I

668
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:55,880
Speaker 1: tell you. So that's another super Bowl story. Thanks Shack.

669
00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:58,000
Speaker 1: We'll see him again down the rock and I'll share it.

670
00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:01,240
Speaker 1: He is anytime he's on one of those late night shows,

671
00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:04,280
Speaker 1: you know, the best I mean he is that you

672
00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:06,600
Speaker 1: got to sit there and watch because he is that

673
00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:09,840
Speaker 1: dry humor that you're talking about it's drawn to him

674
00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:12,080
Speaker 1: and it is a size you know, just his size

675
00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:15,200
Speaker 1: is so I mean, it's incredible. Anyway, Shacky, thanks for

676
00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:17,720
Speaker 1: the laugh because our stomachs were hurting. Afterwards. I'll listen.

677
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:21,160
Speaker 1: Time for we're gonna clock out, all right? We got that?

678
00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:26,040
Speaker 1: How are you doing that? We die all I listen.

679
00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:28,240
Speaker 1: I gotta get through this. The four Credit Union Question

680
00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:30,600
Speaker 1: of the week the Bengals that come up short last

681
00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:33,200
Speaker 1: Sunday against the Rams. How many times has the loser

682
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:35,120
Speaker 1: of the Super Bowl gone on to win the Super

683
00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:38,680
Speaker 1: Bowl the following season? Matey, that's a good one. Think

684
00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:41,680
Speaker 1: about this when it happened not so long ago, and

685
00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:45,600
Speaker 1: then it did happen so long ago? So twice? Then yeah,

686
00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:48,480
Speaker 1: answered twice Dad Gumm And I just blew it. Didn't

687
00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:50,960
Speaker 1: know you did? You did? But I know, I know

688
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:53,480
Speaker 1: the Patriots did it not that long ago, but yeah, No.

689
00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:56,600
Speaker 1: One nineteen they got waxed by the Eagles the Philly Special.

690
00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:58,840
Speaker 1: They lost forty one thirty three, and then the next

691
00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:02,920
Speaker 1: year they came back, Well, they come back, they come back,

692
00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:05,200
Speaker 1: and then they beat the Rams in mcvayh thirteen to

693
00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:06,960
Speaker 1: three the following year. So they did that and then

694
00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:08,400
Speaker 1: in seventy two, you got to go back to the

695
00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:11,760
Speaker 1: perfect year for when the Dolphins beat the Washington team

696
00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:14,560
Speaker 1: fourteen seven after losing the Dallas twenty four to three

697
00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:17,800
Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl the previous season. All right, that's

698
00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:19,719
Speaker 1: a good one. That's a good pull. And why do

699
00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:22,440
Speaker 1: I sound smart weekend a week out on the Forum

707
00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:50,480
Speaker 1: bust out the grab bag. The NFL never sleeps. This

708
00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:54,520
Speaker 1: is the NFL grab bag on the last word. All right,

709
00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:57,040
Speaker 1: the NFL grab bag brought you by our friends Admyer

710
00:32:57,200 --> 00:33:00,640
Speaker 1: local sports. They're victory for our entire community, bilding leaders,

711
00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:04,440
Speaker 1: teaching integrity, sparking our economy. That's why Meyer is proud

712
00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:07,480
Speaker 1: of spots or local sports throughout Indiana, because when we

713
00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:11,840
Speaker 1: support the home team mate, we all win, let's go

714
00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:17,160
Speaker 1: to overtime. Speaking of winning, this is archaic. What other

715
00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:20,280
Speaker 1: big words can I use for this rule in the NFL?

716
00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:24,480
Speaker 1: Two things antituted, antiquated. That's a good one. Two things

717
00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:27,040
Speaker 1: I don't understand about the NFL, and we're gonna get there.

718
00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:30,120
Speaker 1: Two things I don't understand. It's just evolution, that's all.

719
00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:33,680
Speaker 1: Number one, the overtime rules. If team A wins a

720
00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:37,120
Speaker 1: coin flip and they're happy enough that A our lucky

721
00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:40,240
Speaker 1: enough that a defensive back falls down and they score

722
00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:43,320
Speaker 1: a touchdown, game over. Now, if they don't do that,

723
00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:45,120
Speaker 1: they have some trouble, they get to fourthdown, they kick

724
00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:47,640
Speaker 1: a field goal. We'll give you an opportunity to tie

725
00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:50,200
Speaker 1: it up, but not if you score a touchdown. Matt,

726
00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:54,600
Speaker 1: it makes zero sense. These are elite athletes, elite offenses.

727
00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:57,320
Speaker 1: We saw the Buffalo Bills Kansas City game. We saw

728
00:33:57,520 --> 00:34:01,560
Speaker 1: what these quarterbacks can and will do. Don't put handcuffs

729
00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:04,680
Speaker 1: on these teams, for gosh, shakes. Level the playing field,

730
00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:07,200
Speaker 1: and who cares about a coin flip. You do, get

731
00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:09,080
Speaker 1: that out of the way, find out who gets the

732
00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:12,040
Speaker 1: ball first. But my gosh, when loser draw on a

733
00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:14,960
Speaker 1: drive to the end, zone, you give both quarterbacks of

734
00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:18,759
Speaker 1: football and let them go in overtime. So the proposal

735
00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:21,600
Speaker 1: is right. If the team that gets the ball first

736
00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:24,759
Speaker 1: scores a touchdown, the team that kicked off to start

737
00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:28,240
Speaker 1: overtime would then get a chance to match possess the ball.

738
00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:31,799
Speaker 1: After that, the game goes to sudden death. Right, that's

739
00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:34,520
Speaker 1: what's being talked about, right, Actually, I actually I don't

740
00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:37,160
Speaker 1: have a problem with the current overtime rules, to be

741
00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:40,360
Speaker 1: honest with you. The spirit of the overtime rule is

742
00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:43,040
Speaker 1: to end games quickly in the vein of players safety.

743
00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:46,160
Speaker 1: Like that's why it exists. Now that being said, I

744
00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:48,440
Speaker 1: don't have a problem with this new rule either. I

745
00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:51,520
Speaker 1: think that's good too. Now here's where it might get

746
00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:55,680
Speaker 1: interesting though. If the first team scores, the second team

747
00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:58,560
Speaker 1: gets a chance to go on offense. If they score

748
00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:02,480
Speaker 1: a touchdown, two, do they go for two because they

749
00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:05,000
Speaker 1: would run the risk of kicking off again to the

750
00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:07,279
Speaker 1: other team, knowing that from here on out or from

751
00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:10,080
Speaker 1: there on out, the next score wins, it's sudden death.

752
00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:12,799
Speaker 1: That to me would be interesting. I get it, But Matt,

753
00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:15,520
Speaker 1: you know that's all I get it. But that's coming

754
00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:19,319
Speaker 1: into GamePad mcplanning and being strategical and stuffing. My thing

755
00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:24,000
Speaker 1: is this, Give the guy. The quarterback drives the league.

756
00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:28,000
Speaker 1: That's the bottom line. Offenses drive the league. Offensive names

757
00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:32,239
Speaker 1: drive the league. Lamar Jackson, Mahomes, Borrow, go on and

758
00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:35,600
Speaker 1: on and on. So give these guys, don't don't handcuff

759
00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:37,799
Speaker 1: them do. People want to see what they do. And

760
00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:39,960
Speaker 1: that's it in the ultimate big picture. And I know

761
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:43,080
Speaker 1: there's a lot of other subsidiaries and little side exit

762
00:35:43,239 --> 00:35:46,239
Speaker 1: ramps and everything. I'm not talking about. Bottom line, give

763
00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:49,280
Speaker 1: both quarterbacks to football, whether they score three or whether

764
00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:51,960
Speaker 1: they score six. That's my opinion. That's why they're in

765
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:54,240
Speaker 1: the stands. That's why the ratings are what they are.

766
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:56,600
Speaker 1: To watch guys like Josh Allen and Mahomes do what

767
00:35:56,680 --> 00:35:59,759
Speaker 1: they do. I agree with you, but I also, I mean,

768
00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:02,000
Speaker 1: I know this is not a popular opinion, so you're

769
00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:04,200
Speaker 1: not agreeing with me. Okay, I agree with you that

770
00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:06,719
Speaker 1: I would like to see both teams possessed the ball

771
00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:09,080
Speaker 1: in overtime. But that being said, I didn't have a

772
00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:12,400
Speaker 1: problem with the current overtime rules. You gotta play football,

773
00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:14,520
Speaker 1: and part of playing football is playing defense. If you

774
00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:16,919
Speaker 1: don't win the coin tops you're good. Good point. Good

775
00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:19,440
Speaker 1: point defense is part of the game. You're right, all right,

776
00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:22,000
Speaker 1: let's switch gears. Let's go down to Miami. What is

777
00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:25,920
Speaker 1: going on with the Dolphins and their owner, Stephen Ross,

778
00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:29,040
Speaker 1: their former coach Brian Flores. It's still up in the air.

779
00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:31,160
Speaker 1: It's not hot news like it was two weeks ago.

780
00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:34,400
Speaker 1: But Brian Flores says that team owner of the Dolphins,

781
00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:38,200
Speaker 1: Stephen Ross, offered him money to lose games to better

782
00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:41,000
Speaker 1: their draft stock. It's clear that the lead takes the

783
00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:44,960
Speaker 1: possibility of taking extremely seriously, Matt. I mean, it's a

784
00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:47,120
Speaker 1: threat to the integrity of the game. And they talked

785
00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:48,640
Speaker 1: about it for a year. But there we're talking about

786
00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:50,680
Speaker 1: an owner right now, and an owner, by the way,

787
00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:55,280
Speaker 1: that is vehemently denied Flores's what the charges that Flores

788
00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:58,160
Speaker 1: came up with regarding him, you know. Goodell says, Hey,

789
00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:00,359
Speaker 1: we're gonna look into this matter and it is a deal,

790
00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:02,640
Speaker 1: even if it's not true. We will find out the

791
00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:06,640
Speaker 1: answers on this thing. What happens, Matt, What happens if

792
00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:08,919
Speaker 1: there is some I don't know if it's an audio thing,

793
00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:11,480
Speaker 1: and I'm just you know, I'm just reaching at straws

794
00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:13,680
Speaker 1: right now. But if it's not on video or anything

795
00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:16,239
Speaker 1: like that, it's a he said, she said type of

796
00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:18,600
Speaker 1: thing when it comes to this where Flora is saying, hey,

797
00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:20,600
Speaker 1: they offered me money to lose games, and Ross says no,

798
00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:22,520
Speaker 1: they don't. What do you think can happen from this?

799
00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:25,719
Speaker 1: And if there was, if there was some truth to this,

800
00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:27,600
Speaker 1: dare I say, and I hate to put people out

801
00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:30,120
Speaker 1: of work, but does Stephen Ross have to look at possibly,

802
00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:32,920
Speaker 1: you know, selling this football team. If it's proven that

803
00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:35,759
Speaker 1: he offered money to take games, which is gonna be

804
00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:37,440
Speaker 1: hard to do, like you said, you're gonna need it

805
00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:42,040
Speaker 1: on audio or something. But if it is proven that

806
00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:46,239
Speaker 1: he offered money to purposely lose games, then I think

807
00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:49,040
Speaker 1: he should not own an NFL team. If you pay

808
00:37:49,160 --> 00:37:50,879
Speaker 1: great money, and you do. I mean, if you're going

809
00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:53,120
Speaker 1: to an NFL game, regardless of where you are in

810
00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:56,360
Speaker 1: the country, you're paying good money to get into these games.

811
00:37:56,719 --> 00:37:59,920
Speaker 1: Every player, every coach, every fan should not have to

812
00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:02,560
Speaker 1: wonder if things are on the up and up. Now

813
00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:05,280
Speaker 1: that being said, I mean, correct me if I'm wrong, Jeffrey,

814
00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:07,400
Speaker 1: I don't think in the history of the league, I

815
00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:10,520
Speaker 1: don't think an owner has ever been stripped from his team,

816
00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:13,600
Speaker 1: so this would be unprecedented. But that being said, if

817
00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:16,880
Speaker 1: it's proven that he offered money to lose games on purpose,

818
00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:19,160
Speaker 1: I don't think he should own a team. Hey mora

819
00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:22,040
Speaker 1: will be revealed on that front. But between Daniel Snyder

820
00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:25,400
Speaker 1: and what's going on with Stephen ross hold On, always

821
00:38:25,440 --> 00:38:30,000
Speaker 1: an interesting offseason. Now Jim Hersey, Colts owner tweeting about

822
00:38:30,080 --> 00:38:34,000
Speaker 1: where are we going next season? Not meaning like as

823
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:37,480
Speaker 1: a football team, he means literally are we going overseas

824
00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:41,799
Speaker 1: to play football? Matte? There are ten teams that are

825
00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:44,640
Speaker 1: going to be playing games internationally in twenty twenty two.

826
00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:47,880
Speaker 1: They'll be in Munich, Germany, they will be in Mexico,

827
00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:51,640
Speaker 1: and there will be three in London. My first question

828
00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:56,319
Speaker 1: and second question a will the Colts play internationally next

829
00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:58,600
Speaker 1: season and be where will they go? I think there's

830
00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:01,279
Speaker 1: a pretty good chance because we know the Jaguars are

831
00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:03,480
Speaker 1: going back to London, so there's always that chance to

832
00:39:03,520 --> 00:39:07,160
Speaker 1: play them, you know, inside the AFC South. I think

833
00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:09,920
Speaker 1: it's it's kind of around that time, right because two

834
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:13,520
Speaker 1: and twenty two next season will mark six seasons since

835
00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:16,239
Speaker 1: the Colts last went to London and they've got some

836
00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:18,720
Speaker 1: marquee games next season. If you look at the schedule,

837
00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:22,120
Speaker 1: you're playing the Cowboys. That's a sexy matchup. Kansas City.

838
00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:24,960
Speaker 1: You got the Steelers, you got the Patriots, and you

839
00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:27,600
Speaker 1: got some big name, you know, teams with a lot

840
00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:30,439
Speaker 1: of NFL cache on the schedule next season. That might

841
00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:32,960
Speaker 1: be sexy enough to take. You know, the NFL's a

842
00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:35,840
Speaker 1: rushing champ and Jonathan Taylor and the Colts overseas to

843
00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:38,840
Speaker 1: play in front of in front of some international fans.

844
00:39:39,080 --> 00:39:42,920
Speaker 1: I'm just saying this. I have zero idea background anything

845
00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:45,360
Speaker 1: on it. It's just a gut. It's just a gut.

846
00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:49,680
Speaker 1: We're going to Germany. Yeah, let's going to Munich. I

847
00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:51,839
Speaker 1: mean that's what it is. It's like, Hey, let's keell
