1 00:00:01,560 --> 00:00:04,560 Speaker 1: All you need to know about the Colts in one place. 2 00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:09,000 Speaker 1: The Colts Daily Update starts now here's the voice of 3 00:00:09,039 --> 00:00:12,920 Speaker 1: the Colts, Matt Taylor. Indeed, all on one one place. 4 00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:16,800 Speaker 1: We're like a Walmarts Colts football here. Week three starts tonight, 5 00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:21,120 Speaker 1: Browns and Steelers in Cleveland on Thursday Night football. Both 6 00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:23,560 Speaker 1: of those teams are one and one. It's an AFC 7 00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:26,240 Speaker 1: North game Week three for the Colts that unfolds on 8 00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:29,200 Speaker 1: Sunday against the Chiefs. The Colts are OO one and 9 00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:31,760 Speaker 1: one Kansas City two and oh for the fifth time 10 00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:34,320 Speaker 1: in the last six years, and they're off to another 11 00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:37,520 Speaker 1: good start. I'm Matt Taylor, joined tonight by JJ Stangovitz 12 00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:40,320 Speaker 1: from Colts dot Com. JJ. How you doing. How's your 13 00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:44,919 Speaker 1: day been? It's been good. Uh, summer ended ends today 14 00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:47,720 Speaker 1: and it feels like summer ends today. I did not 15 00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:50,120 Speaker 1: know about Today's the solstice. It is the what is 16 00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:52,720 Speaker 1: the twenty second? Get on your almanac? Come on, you 17 00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:56,360 Speaker 1: gotta know when solstice is? Farmer's almanac here. But yesterday 18 00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:59,800 Speaker 1: felt like July. Today feels like October. Yeah, that's the Midwest. 19 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:02,279 Speaker 1: Just skip. Yeah, it's the Midwest. We just skip. September 20 00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:06,480 Speaker 1: we don't even doesn't even exist. Feel like April doesn't 21 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:10,400 Speaker 1: exist anymore. September and October don't exist anymore. But we 22 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:13,080 Speaker 1: are trying to get over the weather. We're trying to 23 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:17,280 Speaker 1: get over week two. I liked what Julian Blackman said 24 00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 1: earlier this week. JJ. He said, there's no sparing feelings 25 00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:22,959 Speaker 1: in this league because at the end of the day, 26 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,720 Speaker 1: if you don't do your job, you're gonna get exposed. 27 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 1: Especially against the Chiefs, They're gonna run up fifty on 28 00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:32,039 Speaker 1: you if you're not ready. And he's right. It's such 29 00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:34,040 Speaker 1: a week to week league, it's such a game to 30 00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:37,399 Speaker 1: game league, and nothing that happened last week is going 31 00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:40,440 Speaker 1: to have any bearing on this game. But that being said, 32 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 1: the Colts know that there's sort of that a turning point, 33 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:46,040 Speaker 1: whatever you want to call it. Didn't think they'd be 34 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 1: at this point this early in the season, but here 35 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 1: they are, knowing they have to play much better football 36 00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:53,880 Speaker 1: and it has to start on Sunday. Yeah, I mean, 37 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:57,600 Speaker 1: it's not a must win game. Those don't exist in September, 38 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 1: but this team is definitely motivated to go out and 39 00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 1: show that what they put on tape against Jacksonville in 40 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:06,880 Speaker 1: week two is not who they are. And I think 41 00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:09,440 Speaker 1: there's this, you know, Frankreich always talks about like a 42 00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:13,520 Speaker 1: healthy tension. There's this healthy tension between we are we 43 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:16,240 Speaker 1: are furious with how we played, We are are angry, 44 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 1: we are mad, we are frustrated, while also recognizing we 45 00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 1: are still confident in everything that we've done over the 46 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 1: last four and a half months. I talked to Zaire 47 00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 1: Franklin about this this week and something he told me 48 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 1: was that if you blow everything up now, did you 49 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 1: really have confidence in what you were doing to begin with? 50 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 1: And I thought that was a really interesting way to 51 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 1: frame it of why the culture saying, hey, we got 52 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,079 Speaker 1: to stay the course, we got to stick to the plan, 53 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 1: we got to stick to our process, because they've been 54 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 1: confident in the work they put in from the time 55 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:47,639 Speaker 1: they all arrived here for the start of the offseason 56 00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:51,080 Speaker 1: program in April. So I think that's why you hear 57 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:54,360 Speaker 1: Frank Creich say the changes, it's not you're not going 58 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:57,080 Speaker 1: to see changes. You're gonna see adjustments. You're gonna see tweaks, 59 00:02:57,360 --> 00:02:59,639 Speaker 1: You're going to see improvement. It's not going to be wholesale. 60 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:03,200 Speaker 1: Change is because two weeks into the season, into an 61 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 1: eighteen week season, that's no time to blow it up. 62 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 1: If you blow it up after two weeks, that probably 63 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 1: means you weren't very confident as a team, in your players, 64 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 1: in your coaches, in the plan that was put together. 65 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:16,800 Speaker 1: That is not decidedly. That is not where the Colts are. 66 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 1: It's JJ Stangovitz. This is the Colts Daily Update. I'm 67 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:22,240 Speaker 1: Matt Taylor here on ninety three five and one oh 68 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 1: seven five the fans tonight. We know about the offensive 69 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 1: line troubles last week. Seven sacks allowed on the season, 70 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 1: eighteen quarterback hits. That's sort of played into Matt Ryan's 71 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 1: numbers so far thirty first in the NFL and passer 72 00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 1: rating twenty second in completion percentage, tied for second with 73 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 1: four picks. Everybody's got to play better, Jj, But that 74 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 1: offensive line, I would suspect that unit. And we heard 75 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 1: from Ryan Kelly earlier this week with the media. I 76 00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 1: would suspect that unit. It's going to have a bit 77 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 1: of a chip on their shoulder going into this third game. Yeah, 78 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 1: and it's stuff that it's a lot of you know, 79 00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 1: when Ryan Kelly talks about playing five a is one. 80 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 1: If you're playing five is one, you are able to 81 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 1: handle some of the stunts in the games and the 82 00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:05,800 Speaker 1: twists that defensive lines are thrown at you, which the 83 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 1: Jacksonville Jaguars did a lot of in Week two and 84 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 1: had a lot of success with where you have you have, 85 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 1: you know, your four defensive lineman, five defensive linemen, whatever 86 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 1: it is, rushing from different gaps and they're lined up 87 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 1: over so you know there are players where Josh Allen 88 00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:22,840 Speaker 1: would you know, kind of loop inside and the Colts 89 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 1: weren't able to pick it up. You know, you had 90 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,719 Speaker 1: some plays where you know, the guys just going into 91 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:29,480 Speaker 1: different gaps, and that is something where when the Colts 92 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:31,280 Speaker 1: talk about again, when they talk about five is one, 93 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 1: they need to play with better communication and the better 94 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 1: ability to pass off those guys because otherwise it's on film. 95 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 1: Now the Chiefs defensive line is going to look at 96 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:42,240 Speaker 1: that and they're gonna say, we got to try to 97 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 1: hit them with some twists and some stunts in some 98 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 1: games early because they didn't show against Jacksonville that they 99 00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 1: could effectively stop it. The Colts know that you're going 100 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,479 Speaker 1: to see that over and over until it's a copycat league, 101 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 1: and the Colts offensive line certainly knows that. They also 102 00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 1: feel like they're better than this. You know, they're better 103 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,160 Speaker 1: than what they put on tape and Jacksonville and we've 104 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:03,360 Speaker 1: seen them be better than what they put on tape. 105 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 1: This isn't about one guy. This isn't about Matt Pryor, 106 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 1: it's not about Danny Pinter. It's about the line as 107 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:11,880 Speaker 1: a whole, playing together and playing with great communication technique 108 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:15,679 Speaker 1: on physicality. I think they can get back there because 109 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 1: of the leadership and the standard that's been set in 110 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,920 Speaker 1: that room by Ryan Kelly, by Quinton Nelson, by Brandon Smith. 111 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,040 Speaker 1: But you got to go out and do it. And 112 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,400 Speaker 1: the one thing you want to see early in this 113 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 1: game is if the Chiefs try one of those where, 114 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:29,280 Speaker 1: you know, let's say you get Frank Clark looping around 115 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:33,280 Speaker 1: the outside from defensive tackle to rushing off the edge. 116 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 1: Can the Colts pick that up successfully? Can they stonewall that? 117 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 1: Because if you do that, then all of a sudden, 118 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:39,599 Speaker 1: the D line might say, oh man, all this stuff 119 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:42,359 Speaker 1: we practice during the week, it's not working right. That's 120 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:44,200 Speaker 1: going to be I think it's something to really keep 121 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:46,279 Speaker 1: an eye on, probably in the first quarter, second quarter 122 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:48,640 Speaker 1: of this game on Sunday, is can the Colts deal 123 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 1: with some of those those twists and stunts that you 124 00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 1: would expect the Chiefs to throw at them? All right? 125 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,520 Speaker 1: Taking it a step further, this Colts often scoring just 126 00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 1: about ten points per game. They've scored on a league 127 00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:02,919 Speaker 1: war sixteen percent of their drives. We know about the 128 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 1: third down rate, the two for seven inside the red 129 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:09,800 Speaker 1: zone so far. Now that the Chiefs are very formidable 130 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 1: on defense, but obviously we know them to be certainly 131 00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:17,280 Speaker 1: well more known for their offense than their defense. What 132 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:19,160 Speaker 1: do you think is this the week the Colts can 133 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 1: finally break out on offense? Is this the week where 134 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:23,839 Speaker 1: they put it all together both up front and in 135 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 1: the passing game and get Jonathan Taylor well over fifty 136 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:29,160 Speaker 1: four yards rushing, which was the case last week? Yeah, 137 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 1: you know, you look at what they did against Houston 138 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:33,240 Speaker 1: and the points weren't there, but the yards were there. 139 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 1: Five hundred and seventeen yards of offense, thirty three first 140 00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:38,839 Speaker 1: downs in that game that I would, if I had 141 00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 1: to guess by the end of the season, we're going 142 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:41,839 Speaker 1: to say that is closer to what the Colts offense 143 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,040 Speaker 1: is going to look like, then the offense saw that 144 00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 1: scored no points and had Jonathan Taylor only touched the 145 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 1: ball ten times, You're going to see more of what 146 00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 1: we saw against Houston. Now. I don't know if the 147 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 1: Colts are gonna get five hundred yards, it's hard to 148 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 1: do in a game, but the efficiency with which that 149 00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:58,520 Speaker 1: offense operated and then the ability to finish down in 150 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:00,359 Speaker 1: the red zone, that is where the Colts have to 151 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:03,080 Speaker 1: have success. You cannot leave points on the board against 152 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:06,720 Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs. You cannot give Patrick Mahomes additional 153 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:08,920 Speaker 1: opportunities to come back and win this game. This has 154 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 1: to be sixty minutes of technically sound good football. I mean, 155 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 1: you saw it last week on Thursday Night, when the 156 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:18,960 Speaker 1: Chargers had a number of opportunities to go up big 157 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: in that game, they did not take advantage of them, 158 00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, here's Patrick Mahomes throwing a 159 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 1: forty nine yard touchdown to Christian Watson on just an 160 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 1: absolutely incredible play, an incredible throw, and it's like, well, 161 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:34,120 Speaker 1: that's just what Mahomes does. Mahomes, He's like, he's like 162 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:37,320 Speaker 1: a great lineup in baseball, where if you commit an error, 163 00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:40,200 Speaker 1: you know you're gonna get beat. That's what Mahomes does 164 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 1: just by himself. Where you give him that one extra opportunity, 165 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 1: you give him that you know, you leave that door 166 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 1: cracked open ever so slightly with a piece of tape, 167 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 1: and he's gonna knock the thing wide open. Now that's 168 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 1: a great analogy. If you give a team a fourth 169 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 1: out in an inning, you know, like if you make 170 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 1: an air, but what does the next guy do? He 171 00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 1: hits a bomb. Yeah, it's a two run bomb and 172 00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you're especially as Reds fans, we 173 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:04,280 Speaker 1: make a lot of airs. Right As a White Sox fan, 174 00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:06,880 Speaker 1: I can tell you, boy, it happens on baseball this year. 175 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:10,760 Speaker 1: So the last time these two teams played was in nineteen. 176 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 1: The Colts great game plan going into that game. They 177 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 1: ball controlled him. They had the ball for thirty seven minutes, 178 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 1: ran for one hundred and eighty yards rushing. Marlon Mack 179 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 1: had a great game. The Colts defense, I think had 180 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:24,920 Speaker 1: four sacks. And it's interesting the Chiefs are three and 181 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 1: seven with Mahomes as their quarterback. JJ when opponents have 182 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:32,320 Speaker 1: at least ten more minutes of time of possession, is 183 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 1: that the blueprint on Sunday for the Colts. I mean, 184 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:35,839 Speaker 1: if they if they want to win, they got to 185 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:37,760 Speaker 1: win on defense, but they also have to win on 186 00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 1: offense too. To keep Mahomes on the sideline. Yeah, I 187 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 1: mean that that's one way to do it. And the 188 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:48,440 Speaker 1: key there isn't necessarily ball control. It's great if you 189 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:50,360 Speaker 1: hold on to the ball for thirty seven minutes, but 190 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:53,120 Speaker 1: if Mahomes gets twenty three minutes, but he's hitting four 191 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:55,600 Speaker 1: or five explosive plays, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter 192 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 1: about ball control. Time of possession will be meaningless at 193 00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:00,280 Speaker 1: that point. So you gotta not only play ball control, 194 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:02,320 Speaker 1: but he got to make Mahomes then grind out drives 195 00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 1: and you know, we saw Jacksonville. Jacksonville had three drives 196 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:08,120 Speaker 1: of ten or more plays that resulted in them scoring 197 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 1: seventeen points in Week two. You got to get off 198 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 1: the field on third down. If you're going to do that, 199 00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:15,400 Speaker 1: you got to create some takeaways. You gotta get some sacks, 200 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 1: you gotta get some explosive plays on defense of your 201 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 1: own because again, you know, it's great to say if 202 00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 1: you hold the ball for thirty seven minutes, Mahomes can't 203 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:27,400 Speaker 1: beat you, but he absolutely can, and that's where the 204 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:29,960 Speaker 1: defensive aspect of that comes in. But I think ideally, 205 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:31,600 Speaker 1: if you're the Colts, you would love to get Jonathan 206 00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 1: Taylor really going in this game. You'd love to get 207 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 1: the passing offense to be efficient where maybe you don't 208 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 1: need to lean on it a ton, but you can 209 00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:41,199 Speaker 1: you can rely on it when you need to pick 210 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:42,960 Speaker 1: up a third down, you can pass it. You don't 211 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 1: always have to run it. I'm just interested what Steve Spagnolo, 212 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 1: the Kansa City Chiefs defensive coordinator, does. He's a really 213 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 1: sharp guy, known to vary how he plays week to week. 214 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 1: Does he stack the box and say, all right, you know, 215 00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 1: beat us with the pass, or does he kind of 216 00:09:58,400 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 1: play more of a two high shell and make the 217 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:01,680 Speaker 1: Colts really grind it out. I don't know. That's going 218 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 1: to be a really interesting part of it. But the 219 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:05,360 Speaker 1: cults are gonna probably want to dictate this game on 220 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:08,280 Speaker 1: the ground you would expect with Jonathan Taylor, and then 221 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:10,840 Speaker 1: on defense, keep everything in front of you, don't give 222 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:14,120 Speaker 1: up that explosive play, and then go make a game 223 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 1: changing play, get a turnover. That's going to be the 224 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 1: key right there. All right, good stuff. What are you 225 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:22,439 Speaker 1: writing about this weekend going into the game. So the 226 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:24,440 Speaker 1: Cults are off two O one and one start, right, 227 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:27,680 Speaker 1: It hasn't been what anyone expected. But as the Cults 228 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:29,800 Speaker 1: are kind of building this thing, the one thing they 229 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:31,960 Speaker 1: can do really well is stop the run. And I 230 00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:34,040 Speaker 1: asked de Forrest Buckner if you can have a good 231 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:35,959 Speaker 1: defense without stopping the run, and he was just like, no, 232 00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:38,240 Speaker 1: you can't. So I'm writing about how well the Cults 233 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:40,199 Speaker 1: are playing against the run and how that is a 234 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 1: really strong foundation for this team to build on as 235 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 1: they look to get their pass rush going, is they 236 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 1: look to get some of their coverage schemes going. They 237 00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 1: know they can stop the run. They know teams cannot 238 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:51,120 Speaker 1: punch them in the mouth physically on defense, and that 239 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 1: is a really good starting point as you look at 240 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:55,200 Speaker 1: an eighteen week season, no doubt about it. Yeah, the 241 00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:57,400 Speaker 1: Cults are giving up less than three yards per carry 242 00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:59,960 Speaker 1: on defense against the run. Pretty good started in terms 243 00:10:59,920 --> 00:11:02,240 Speaker 1: of that, and that's a foundational piece that they have 244 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 1: to build on. There, JJ and joy football to night, 245 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:07,400 Speaker 1: my man.
