A road rally a gathering spot. Yes, 28 00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 1: I like when everybody can get together before the game, celebrate, 29 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:04,920 Speaker 1: meet some friends. Well that's the only thing it's really 30 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:09,440 Speaker 1: hard about this is very rarely do the Titans play 31 00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 1: that close to home, because Indianapolis is about four hours away. 32 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:17,799 Speaker 1: Atlanta's three and a half. Yeah, New Orleans isn't bad. 33 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:20,799 Speaker 1: I think it's probably seven and a half to eight. 34 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:23,960 Speaker 1: The Ohio's aren't far. The Ohios aren't far at all. 35 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:28,560 Speaker 1: Cleveland Cincinnati, Cincinnati is about the same distance, maybe just 36 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 1: a little further than Indianapolis. But we don't play them 37 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 1: every year. Now we're in the same division for thirty 38 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 1: plus years. Yeah, and that used to be an annual 39 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:40,960 Speaker 1: trip that was really great. And I like Cincinnati very much. 40 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,680 Speaker 1: It was an easy trip, and Cleveland's not bad. It's 41 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:47,920 Speaker 1: considerably further though. Yeah, Cincinnati and Indie are the two 42 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 1: that are very reasonable road trips. Just you can go 43 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 1: up and back in a day if you want to, 44 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 1: but we suggest going the night before, make a trip 45 00:02:56,639 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 1: of it. Then you can go to all of the festivity. Well. 46 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 1: And thanks to Old Smoky Distillery for sponsoring those two 47 00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 1: events for the fan base, and we know a lot 48 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 1: of you like to go up there. It's a it's 49 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:11,240 Speaker 1: a great downtown. It's Amy's favorite trip because of the Combine, 50 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 1: and Amy continues to celebrate the fact that the Combine 51 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 1: will stay in Indianapolis. I feel like people think that 52 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:23,519 Speaker 1: I like work for the Indianapolis like tourism Bureau. Yeah, 53 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:28,240 Speaker 1: I don't. I just like the consistency of having that 54 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 1: event specifically in Indianapolis. I think that it's a downtown 55 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 1: that lends itself so well. So if it were in 56 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 1: Oakland every year, you would be for that just because 57 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,440 Speaker 1: it was in the same spot every year. If it 58 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 1: was in Oakland, no, if it was as convenient as 59 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 1: what Indie provides Oakland would nobody because traffic is a nightmare. 60 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 1: You are going to have a hard time finding anybody 61 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 1: who can do it better than Indianapolis because of a 62 00:03:56,600 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 1: their downtown and be the medical facilities that are close 63 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 1: enough to be able to do all of the testing 64 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 1: for the players that they want to do. Nobody ever 65 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 1: said that it wasn't the best set up, right. It's 66 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 1: just the league wants to make more money off of it. 67 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 1: And I understand that, and really I get it, and 68 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:17,360 Speaker 1: that's why Indy and for all the talk about all 69 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:21,720 Speaker 1: Indie kept it, Indy kept it because they paid more money. Yeah, 70 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 1: they were getting, which God love him, and I appreciate that, 71 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 1: and I hope it stays there forever. It's not because 72 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 1: it is so convenient, and we get the new stadium here, 73 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 1: it'll be here well, and that would be very convenient, 74 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 1: and I appreciate that. Ease and convenience is what I like. 75 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,240 Speaker 1: I would say this to all the OT people. It 76 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 1: is a great trip. It's a great trip. It's a 77 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 1: really nice city, and the people are friendly. I mean, 78 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 1: they want to beat us and we want to beat them. 79 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:53,040 Speaker 1: We all get that. And their owners tweeting out today 80 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:55,560 Speaker 1: trying to get the fans fired up. I mean, okay, 81 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:59,800 Speaker 1: so it's a rivalry, fine, but it's not nasty or 82 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't find it to be Did you 83 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 1: want them to be primal? Is that the word he used? Primal? 84 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 1: Pissed off and primal? Yeah, it's I mean, yeah, whoa, yeah, 85 00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 1: whoa is right? Whoa? That's he is quite a follow 86 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,719 Speaker 1: on Twitter. Oh, he's a great follow on Twitter. Not 87 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:24,160 Speaker 1: so great if you work in the public relations department 88 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 1: for the Indianapolis Colts. I don't think. Didn't you deal 89 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 1: with him regularly when you interned there? Not regularly, but 90 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:35,280 Speaker 1: I did have. Well, he has very specific specifications for 91 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 1: how he likes his morning news delivered to him. Okay, 92 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:42,520 Speaker 1: in his news clippings that go out to the whole organization, 93 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 1: they are in a very specific manner. It is organized 94 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 1: in a certain way. He wants to know very specific 95 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 1: things about very specific teams, because this is how he 96 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 1: gets a lot of his news. It's organized in a 97 00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:58,279 Speaker 1: specific way. And you understand, let's stop for just a 98 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:02,800 Speaker 1: second and explain what lips are. So people, Yeah, every 99 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:05,200 Speaker 1: team in the National Football League, and I'm sure a 100 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,719 Speaker 1: lot of other places have all of the news that 101 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 1: has been reported about a team in the last say, 102 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,600 Speaker 1: twelve to twenty four hours put together in one document. 103 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:18,480 Speaker 1: So it's a lot of running through the ESPN's all 104 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:22,240 Speaker 1: your beat writers, all news articles that have anything to 105 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:25,839 Speaker 1: do with, say, the Tennessee Titans, are all compiled into 106 00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:28,479 Speaker 1: one document. There's a lot of different ways to do it. 107 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:32,039 Speaker 1: Every team has certain quirks about the way that it's done, 108 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 1: the way that that's assembled. Indie has one of the 109 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:40,840 Speaker 1: most thorough clippings documents I've ever seen. So they don't 110 00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:44,719 Speaker 1: just email links out. Oh no, my friends, do you 111 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:47,480 Speaker 1: think they still even ten years later, they still print 112 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:50,719 Speaker 1: everything out for him in this way? Oh, I'm sure, 113 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:54,800 Speaker 1: I am sure of it. There was factsing involved. There 114 00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:59,800 Speaker 1: were I did that. It is your internship duties a 115 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 1: variety of places, and most interns that what you did 116 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:05,920 Speaker 1: in Baltimore, as we did in Baltimore as well. Were 117 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 1: they as stringent about it? Absolutely not. No, just the 118 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 1: basic Yeah, just the basic kind of stuff, And the 119 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,160 Speaker 1: same with here at the Titans. It's kind of your 120 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 1: basic form. It's the news of the day, and it's 121 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 1: all in a document, and you love to have it, 122 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:22,760 Speaker 1: and it's very helpful there. It was organized, and it 123 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 1: was in a certain specific order, and you have a 124 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:29,440 Speaker 1: table contents, and it has an appropriate cover sheet, and 125 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 1: you include a lot of other things about other teams, 126 00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 1: because he wants to have a very well rounded perspective 127 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 1: of what's going on within an organization. And so that's 128 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 1: how he's getting his news. And I mean, you got 129 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 1: to respect it. I do. I mean, if if I 130 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 1: own the team and I wanted to take it as 131 00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:53,960 Speaker 1: seriously as possible, I see nothing wrong with being specific 132 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:58,040 Speaker 1: about what you want to read. Because his time is valuable, exactly, 133 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:00,760 Speaker 1: he just like Amy Adam strunk Hurt, I'm as valuable. 134 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:04,560 Speaker 1: You don't want your owner to waste time looking for 135 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:09,000 Speaker 1: something or reading something that has no relevance to what 136 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:12,239 Speaker 1: they need to know for their day. And he wants 137 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 1: it to be the first thing that he consumes in 138 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 1: the morning. So he get it to him really early, 139 00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 1: really really how early six am? When I was there. 140 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:24,560 Speaker 1: He needed it by six Does he still lift weights 141 00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 1: like he used to? Is that? Does he read it 142 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 1: while he works out? That? I don't know, because he 143 00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 1: saw him consuming He was a nationally ranked powerlifter at 144 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:34,440 Speaker 1: one point in his life. Yeah, and he's had some 145 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 1: back issues surgery, I can say, so, Yeah, it's a 146 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:40,920 Speaker 1: little bit different. But I mean the pictures of him 147 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 1: back in the eighties like deadlifting and power cleaning. Yeah, 148 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:48,000 Speaker 1: I mean it is no joke. It's no joke. He 149 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:51,600 Speaker 1: is a renaissance man in that he has a lot 150 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 1: of interests that are just why. I mean he has 151 00:08:56,360 --> 00:09:00,720 Speaker 1: he has collections guitars, all kinds of things, tars, but 152 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:04,320 Speaker 1: all kinds of other historical documents and relics and things 153 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:07,320 Speaker 1: that he's just kind of gathered over the years. I mean, 154 00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:11,120 Speaker 1: he is a man of many interests. He's super eclectic, 155 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 1: which is really cool. And his number one thing is 156 00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:18,320 Speaker 1: the Indianapolis Colts though, and I mean he is all in. 157 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:21,280 Speaker 1: There's nothing wrong all over the road in terms of 158 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:25,079 Speaker 1: he wants. He has thoughts and ideas here and free 159 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 1: here's what I say about this. And I mean people 160 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:32,440 Speaker 1: oftentimes joke about certain owners like a Jerry Jones or 161 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:34,840 Speaker 1: the late George Steinbrenner with the New York Yankees, And 162 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,960 Speaker 1: as you know, I'm a Yankee fan. And congratulations, by 163 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 1: the way, thank you George Steinbrenner was kind of nuts, 164 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:44,840 Speaker 1: you know. I mean, he did some he did some 165 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 1: very strange things. But you know what, Amy, as a 166 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 1: Yankee fan, that's what I wanted, because all I'm interested 167 00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:57,200 Speaker 1: in is winning championships. I want I want the Yankee 168 00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:58,760 Speaker 1: I mean, I get up. The first thing I do 169 00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 1: every morning is I get on my phone and I 170 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 1: find the box score and I'll sit there while I'm 171 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:05,320 Speaker 1: watching TV at night going over the box score and 172 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 1: updates on the games and who they're bringing in from 173 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:11,600 Speaker 1: the bullpen. I mean, I'm serious about it. I want 174 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:15,080 Speaker 1: my owner to be as serious, if not more serious 175 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:18,439 Speaker 1: than I am. So I have mad respect for an 176 00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:23,240 Speaker 1: owner like Earsay who says, hey, I mean, we want 177 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:25,200 Speaker 1: to win the whole thing. This is our goal. We're 178 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 1: not getting it done. I mean a lot of people 179 00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:30,080 Speaker 1: poked fund at his video at the end of last year, 180 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 1: and I didn't because I get it. I mean, so 181 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 1: that's not normal to some people, but to me as 182 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:40,440 Speaker 1: a fan. If I'm a Colts fan, that's what I want. 183 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 1: That's why I win. Our owner stands up and says 184 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 1: we want to win a championship, and then she spends 185 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:47,600 Speaker 1: a whole bunch of money on a whole bunch of 186 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:51,160 Speaker 1: players and coaches, buildings and stuff. That shows me she's 187 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:55,280 Speaker 1: committed to winning a championship. Doesn't guarantee that you will, 188 00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:59,560 Speaker 1: But I want my owner to be as committed as 189 00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:02,079 Speaker 1: I am as a fan. And the thing about Amy 190 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:07,840 Speaker 1: Adams Strunk that makes her so popular beyond just her enthusiasm, 191 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:12,080 Speaker 1: her passion, her obvious complete buy into the organization. With 192 00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 1: the amount of just the widespread amount of ways that 193 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:19,280 Speaker 1: she has invested in this team, you get her without 194 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:24,439 Speaker 1: the crazy, which you do, which she's crazy. She's very relatable, 195 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 1: she has incredible common sense. Yes, she is very She's 196 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:32,320 Speaker 1: someone who you feel like you can have a conversation with. 197 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:37,240 Speaker 1: But she's as passionate as earsay is. Absolutely she does. 198 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:41,160 Speaker 1: It doesn't come across the same way, but she's like, hey, 199 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:43,880 Speaker 1: we went a ball game. She's happy. We lose a ballgame, 200 00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:47,480 Speaker 1: she is not happy, right, And when the whole Ken 201 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:50,280 Speaker 1: Wizzen Hunt thing was going down and he was three 202 00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 1: and twenty, she was not happy. Or she said that's enough. 203 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:57,320 Speaker 1: Ye when the concessions weren't good enough for the fan base, 204 00:11:57,360 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 1: when she heard that over and over and over again, 205 00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 1: at Nissan stage. She bought them out. Yep, she she said. 206 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:06,360 Speaker 1: If our fans are telling us this is unsatisfactory, I'm 207 00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:09,600 Speaker 1: not gonna sit here and and watch this happen. And 208 00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:12,560 Speaker 1: I think that is the reason we like working for 209 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:15,959 Speaker 1: her so much, is you can say something to her 210 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 1: like that and she goes, Okay, do that. She's decisive. 211 00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 1: That's better, she gets it done, what she wants to 212 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:27,319 Speaker 1: win in everything. I love it. Yeah. I take her 213 00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:30,440 Speaker 1: over any owner in any sport, anywhere, all the time 214 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:34,160 Speaker 1: of the time, mainly because she gave you a job 215 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:37,480 Speaker 1: she did well. Yeah, and I appreciate that and continues 216 00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:38,960 Speaker 1: to give me a job. And that is also an 217 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:41,560 Speaker 1: important thing. But really, if Amy Adam Strunk said, you 218 00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:43,679 Speaker 1: know what, I think I'm going to open a bread factory, 219 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:45,720 Speaker 1: I would probably try to get a job at that 220 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 1: bread would Yeah, because I enjoy working for her as humans. 221 00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:52,560 Speaker 1: I've said on more than one occasion, these are the 222 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:55,959 Speaker 1: good old days. Yeah, this is it. And from our 223 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,680 Speaker 1: standpoint to six straight winning seasons and being in the 224 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:00,559 Speaker 1: middle of it and you know, gonna go out and 225 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 1: fight the Indianapolis Colts right now, and neither one of 226 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 1: us are where we want to be right now. But 227 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:08,520 Speaker 1: there's nobody that I know who has a brain that's 228 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:12,840 Speaker 1: ruling either one of us out right now. Oh no, 229 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:15,559 Speaker 1: so good. I mean it's gonna be that kind of game. 230 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:19,880 Speaker 1: I love those games. The Titans added Mario Edwards defensive 231 00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:23,679 Speaker 1: linemen off the Jacksonville practice squad, lot Raven Clark offensive 232 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:28,200 Speaker 1: linemen off the Philadelphia practice squad. They signed Joe Schobert 233 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:31,200 Speaker 1: to the practice squad. He's a linebacker. Do you know 234 00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:35,120 Speaker 1: Joe Schobert's story? Not very well? No? Okay, So I 235 00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:37,520 Speaker 1: love this story. I mean, you know when I go 236 00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 1: to the Senior Bowl, I love these backstories. Yes, you do. 237 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:45,360 Speaker 1: That's my thing. And I want to apologize to the 238 00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 1: OT people right now because we're gonna Uncle Mike's gonna 239 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 1: tell a story because because I love these stories. Okay, 240 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:56,640 Speaker 1: So this Joe Schobert, he's an All American at Wisconsin. 241 00:13:57,240 --> 00:14:00,520 Speaker 1: You know, Wisconsin has been good for thirty years since 242 00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:02,719 Speaker 1: Barry Alvarez got there. I mean they've been they've been 243 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,840 Speaker 1: really good. They produced all kinds of players. So here's 244 00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:09,079 Speaker 1: another All American, Joe Schobert. So I'm reading about this 245 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:14,600 Speaker 1: guy and he is so not the five star all 246 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:18,559 Speaker 1: the way through, projected to be an All American. He 247 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 1: comes out of this place called Waukashaw, Wisconsin. It's town 248 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:31,000 Speaker 1: of seventy thousand. Waukeshaw, Wisconsin is in Waukashaw County, which 249 00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 1: is the same county that produced the Watt brothers. Oh, okay, okay, 250 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:41,080 Speaker 1: they're from Colwaukee, Wisconsin. Colwaukee, Wisconsin. It's a great name. 251 00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 1: It's a great name. There have been other players, other, 252 00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 1: various people in sports come out of that county, including 253 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:55,520 Speaker 1: the man who invented spaghettios. No kids, true, So Joe 254 00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:59,480 Speaker 1: Schobert goes to Waukeshaw West. He's a record setting running back. 255 00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:01,880 Speaker 1: His junior year he rushed for two hundred ninety six 256 00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:05,000 Speaker 1: yards in the state championship game. He's also a great safety. 257 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:07,800 Speaker 1: He's one hundred ninety five pounds. He's two times All 258 00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:11,480 Speaker 1: conference on the basketball team, and he's third in the 259 00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:14,120 Speaker 1: state as a high jumper, which if you've ever done that, 260 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:15,680 Speaker 1: you know how hard that is. You got to be 261 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 1: an athlete to be a high jumper. Yeah. So, no 262 00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:25,200 Speaker 1: scholarship offers nothing, MADA. He's gonna walk on at North 263 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:29,320 Speaker 1: Dakota there's a coach in Kenosha, Wisconsin at Bradford High 264 00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:34,720 Speaker 1: School named Jed Kennedy. He's probably best known because he 265 00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:38,360 Speaker 1: was Melvin Gordon's high school coach, Melvin Gordon who went 266 00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:41,120 Speaker 1: on to become a great running back at Wisconsin and 267 00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:43,360 Speaker 1: then of course has been in the league for a 268 00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 1: long time. He calls the Wisconsin staff and he goes this, 269 00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 1: Joe Schobert, you need to get him to walk on 270 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:52,960 Speaker 1: at Wisconsin. You need to make that happen. This guy 271 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 1: can really play. So they go get him before just 272 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:59,720 Speaker 1: before he leaves for North Dakota. He goes to Wisconsin. Well, 273 00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:02,760 Speaker 1: he puts on fifty pounds. He's a special teams player, 274 00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:04,840 Speaker 1: he's a backup, then he becomes a starter, and then 275 00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:10,320 Speaker 1: he's an All American in twenty fifty sure from Walker. Yes, 276 00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 1: so he gets drafted right at the start of the 277 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:17,440 Speaker 1: fourth round by the Cleveland Browns. Second year, becomes a starter, 278 00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:21,400 Speaker 1: goes to the Pro Bowl, plays four years for the Browns, 279 00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:25,160 Speaker 1: signs a big free agent contract with Jacksonville, and has 280 00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:27,920 Speaker 1: a great year with Jacksonville in twenty twenty one hundred 281 00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:30,760 Speaker 1: and forty one tackles. Well. Of course, they change coaches 282 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 1: and guess who doesn't want him on the team. Yeah, 283 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:38,680 Speaker 1: probably because he went to Wisconsin, So Noah urban Meyer. 284 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:42,920 Speaker 1: So they trade him to Pittsburgh. We played against us 285 00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:47,320 Speaker 1: last year and he had over one hundred tackles last year. Well, 286 00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:49,480 Speaker 1: he's going into the third year of that contract that 287 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:54,560 Speaker 1: he signed in Jacksonville Steelers. They're saying, we can't afford it. 288 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:57,120 Speaker 1: So they let him go, and they let him go 289 00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:01,520 Speaker 1: right into free agency. They cut him on seventeenth, So 290 00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:04,720 Speaker 1: the first wave of free agency is already over at 291 00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:07,000 Speaker 1: that point, that big you know, the big running shoot 292 00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:09,360 Speaker 1: period where everybody goes out and signs the massive contracts. 293 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:12,520 Speaker 1: So he gets cut right there. Well, now he's between 294 00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:15,480 Speaker 1: a rock and hard plays. He figures, I'm gonna wait. 295 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:19,480 Speaker 1: Denver signs him on August the fifteenth because they've got injuries. 296 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 1: But if you've seen Denver's defense pretty good, they just 297 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:27,280 Speaker 1: need him because they have some guys injured. And so 298 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 1: after eight days they say, well, we're you know, you're 299 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:33,679 Speaker 1: a veteran, we're gonna let you go. And so he 300 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 1: hasn't been playing football for the past five weeks. Well, 301 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:39,080 Speaker 1: now he's on the Titans practice squad, and there is 302 00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:43,840 Speaker 1: a reasonable shot that Joe Schobert is going to be 303 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:48,840 Speaker 1: activated on Sunday, might even start who knows, who knows, 304 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:51,800 Speaker 1: But I mean, we've seen those sorts of things happen 305 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:53,720 Speaker 1: with Terrence Mitchell and whatever. I mean, we'll see it 306 00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:57,600 Speaker 1: may not, but we'll see. But theoretically it's out there 307 00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:00,800 Speaker 1: that he could be playing against the Indianapolis could on Sunday. Joe, 308 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:04,119 Speaker 1: what a wild ride. Well, so, the reason I found 309 00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:06,080 Speaker 1: his story and got so interested in him and have 310 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:08,080 Speaker 1: always been a fan is because he was such a 311 00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:10,400 Speaker 1: good guy at the Senior Bowl. He was a lot 312 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:13,320 Speaker 1: of fun to talk to because he's had all this 313 00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:16,120 Speaker 1: stuff going. So when he gets here, I requested an 314 00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:18,560 Speaker 1: interview with him and he was gracious enough to grant it. 315 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:21,800 Speaker 1: And so here he is Joe Schobert talking to the 316 00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:25,159 Speaker 1: OT people more specifically me, but threw me to the 317 00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:34,919 Speaker 1: OT people are the OT peol. So you have played 318 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:38,280 Speaker 1: against the Tennessee Titans six times in your career for 319 00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:41,280 Speaker 1: three different teams. Is it a little odd to be 320 00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:44,480 Speaker 1: part of the Tennessee Titans after facing them so many 321 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:47,520 Speaker 1: times on the field? Yeah. I think the weirdest thing 322 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:49,080 Speaker 1: is when you get into the building and you see 323 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:51,720 Speaker 1: the day to day operations, he said, this side of 324 00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:53,560 Speaker 1: the team in the locker room and the meeting rooms 325 00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:56,479 Speaker 1: and the cafeteria, and it's just different because, like, especially 326 00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:58,160 Speaker 1: when you're a division arrival, like when we're in jackson 327 00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:00,800 Speaker 1: When I was in Jacksonville, it's like aimless gray faces. 328 00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:02,960 Speaker 1: You hate these guys at big rivals, and then you 329 00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:04,879 Speaker 1: just make them up to be like people who aren't 330 00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:06,240 Speaker 1: just like you, and then you pop in the building 331 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:08,679 Speaker 1: like Matt, everybody's cool, they do things good here, Like, 332 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:11,840 Speaker 1: it's definitely interesting to be part of the environment. How 333 00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:14,959 Speaker 1: much has it helped you stepping in because you had 334 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:16,919 Speaker 1: to do the same thing in Pittsburgh last year in 335 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 1: training camp when you were traded from Jacksonville to the Steelers. Yeah, 336 00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:22,760 Speaker 1: I think I've I mean, this is my eighth different 337 00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 1: scheme I've had to learn in seven years. So I've 338 00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:28,480 Speaker 1: got a lot of training and learning new stuff. And 339 00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 1: thankfully for me the package this week for the mentally, 340 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 1: I'm able to start picking it up pretty quickly. I 341 00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:38,720 Speaker 1: got a lot of time with Zach, the insistent linebackers coach, 342 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:40,800 Speaker 1: and just one on one time being able He's really 343 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:43,560 Speaker 1: helped pulling me along, getting things installed, making sure I'm 344 00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:46,080 Speaker 1: dotting my eyes and crossing my teas before I get 345 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:48,720 Speaker 1: out here on the practice field. All right, So you 346 00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:51,680 Speaker 1: had eight days in Denver, but otherwise you haven't been 347 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:54,159 Speaker 1: with a football team since then. Is it hard to 348 00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:57,280 Speaker 1: get back in that Maybe not football shape, but just 349 00:19:57,359 --> 00:20:01,119 Speaker 1: in that mode? Yeah, Like nothing simulates playing football like. No, 350 00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:02,840 Speaker 1: I'm a train like I've been training and working out 351 00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:05,479 Speaker 1: the whole off season. I've been up in Denver at 352 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 1: altitude like working out, breathing heavy. But nothing no matter 353 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:11,840 Speaker 1: where you go, if I wouldn't Sea level, if I'm 354 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:13,720 Speaker 1: up in the mountains playing football, you can't replicate it. 355 00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:15,080 Speaker 1: As soon as you got on the field, you start 356 00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 1: getting that cotton mouth. You start to see yelling, communicating, 357 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:19,639 Speaker 1: run around, hitting people one hundred miles an hour, and 358 00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:22,080 Speaker 1: it's something you have to get adjusted to. But I mean, 359 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:23,679 Speaker 1: at this point in my life, I've got a lot 360 00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:25,560 Speaker 1: of a lot of miles on the legs playing football. 361 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:28,040 Speaker 1: So they just need to knock the rest off and 362 00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 1: get back at it. You've got a lot of success. 363 00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:32,120 Speaker 1: Started in this league for five years, five straight years 364 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:35,720 Speaker 1: with one hundred plus tackles. Knowing what your resume says, 365 00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:38,160 Speaker 1: it would seem like this offseason would have been hard 366 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:40,480 Speaker 1: for you based on the fact that you've done a 367 00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 1: great job everywhere you've been. Have you stayed positive? Yeah, 368 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:45,720 Speaker 1: I think I've just got to take what life gives you. 369 00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:48,679 Speaker 1: I mean, the way I got released in Pittsburgh last year, 370 00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:50,320 Speaker 1: it was kind of behind the eight ball and free agency, 371 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:52,840 Speaker 1: so there wasn't a lot of opportunities. So just take 372 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:55,040 Speaker 1: it as a positive and the fact that I can 373 00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:56,680 Speaker 1: work out at home, I can see my family every 374 00:20:56,680 --> 00:21:00,720 Speaker 1: single day from April until I got here and be 375 00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:02,680 Speaker 1: able to just enjoy those moments and just keep ready 376 00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:04,199 Speaker 1: to stay ready for when I get the call, so 377 00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:05,800 Speaker 1: I know that wherever I go, I'll be able to 378 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:07,560 Speaker 1: contribute and help the team in any way I can well. 379 00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:09,119 Speaker 1: On the bottom line, too, is you did it the 380 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:10,960 Speaker 1: hard way coming out of high school. So this is 381 00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 1: just sort of going back to those roots for you, 382 00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 1: isn't it. Yeah, definitely. I mean, once you're a walk on, 383 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:17,800 Speaker 1: you're always a walk on, So you care that mentality 384 00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:19,400 Speaker 1: wherever you go on a football field to the rest 385 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:22,000 Speaker 1: of your life. And Wisconsin is a huge a great 386 00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:24,760 Speaker 1: tradition of walk on is just being not even just 387 00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:26,240 Speaker 1: the guys who made it to the NFL, but guys 388 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:28,679 Speaker 1: who some of my teammates who have just gone on 389 00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 1: and be super successful in their personal lives, and just 390 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 1: a badge of pride you carry with you and chip 391 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:34,439 Speaker 1: on your shoulder that never goes away and it just 392 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:37,680 Speaker 1: makes you appreciate where you came from. So the challenge 393 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:41,640 Speaker 1: this weekend for the Titans is another Wisconsin man talking 394 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:44,520 Speaker 1: about Jonathan Taylor. You guys missed each other by two 395 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:48,320 Speaker 1: years in Madison. You've played against him twice. You're on 396 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:50,440 Speaker 1: the field for a game where he gained two fifty three, 397 00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:53,919 Speaker 1: so you know exactly what he's all about. What stands 398 00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:56,119 Speaker 1: out about Jonathan Taylor. I mean the first thing is 399 00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:58,320 Speaker 1: to speed. I mean I remember when he came to Wisconsin. 400 00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:00,520 Speaker 1: Ever just talking about I tend to one hundred meter 401 00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:02,480 Speaker 1: dash at two hundred and twenty pounds, and you see 402 00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:03,560 Speaker 1: that on the film. You see it when he gets 403 00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:04,720 Speaker 1: out in the open field, a lot like the guy 404 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:06,600 Speaker 1: we have in the backfield here. When he gets an 405 00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:10,040 Speaker 1: open field, very few people catch him. And then he yeah, 406 00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:12,160 Speaker 1: obviously pairs that with a great offensive line and great 407 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,440 Speaker 1: vision to exploit it. And they like to hand him 408 00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:16,199 Speaker 1: the ball twenty plus times a game and hope he 409 00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:18,120 Speaker 1: just breaks one or two and that's good for them. 410 00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:20,560 Speaker 1: So he's a work course. He's been healthy his career 411 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:23,920 Speaker 1: so far. He carried about thousand times at Wisconsin, gained 412 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:25,920 Speaker 1: two thousand plus yards every year, and he's just keeping 413 00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 1: on that track in the NFL. So it's going to 414 00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:29,399 Speaker 1: be our job to slow him down limited him on Sunday. 415 00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:32,600 Speaker 1: You've really done everything. You've rushed the passer in the league. 416 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:35,000 Speaker 1: You've been the guy who's called the signals and made 417 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:37,640 Speaker 1: sure the gaps are filled. You've been excellent in pass coverage. 418 00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:40,760 Speaker 1: You said you've played in eight different schemes, so even 419 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:43,320 Speaker 1: on short notice, whatever they ask you to do, you 420 00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:46,399 Speaker 1: could probably do that. Yeah, that's a good thing about 421 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:48,960 Speaker 1: If there is a good thing about learning eight different schemes, 422 00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:51,239 Speaker 1: is that there's a lot of carryover. May not be 423 00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:53,920 Speaker 1: the verbiage or may not be the exact calls, but 424 00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:56,320 Speaker 1: you can only play cover three so many different ways, 425 00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:58,439 Speaker 1: and you just got to learn how this team communicates 426 00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:00,440 Speaker 1: that and how they communicate all their checks and balances, 427 00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 1: and just get in there and pull back on the 428 00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:05,320 Speaker 1: information you learn in the fast It's like just opening 429 00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:07,399 Speaker 1: a little a little lot container right back in the 430 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:10,119 Speaker 1: back of your mind and pulling that stuff out and 431 00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:12,000 Speaker 1: just applying it to the football field right here right now. 432 00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:21,960 Speaker 1: You gotta like that down. Yeah, Oh, well, but the 433 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,040 Speaker 1: whole thing. I mean, the guy's nearly twenty nine years 434 00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:27,920 Speaker 1: old and he's had this wild ride throughout football and 435 00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 1: he's just been He's been a great pro. I mean, 436 00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:33,520 Speaker 1: you start five years in the league, you have over 437 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:36,960 Speaker 1: one hundred tackles a year, you play a position that 438 00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:40,680 Speaker 1: doesn't play all three downs on defense all the time. Now, 439 00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:45,240 Speaker 1: it's so in terms of supply and demand, the supply 440 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:50,240 Speaker 1: way exceeds the demand. Yeah, and for him torn, Yeah, 441 00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:53,080 Speaker 1: if he were a corner or a wide receiver, no problem. 442 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:56,160 Speaker 1: But if you played to that level at those positions, 443 00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 1: you would have a job forever. But linebackers are just 444 00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:04,159 Speaker 1: viewfferently now. Well, it is so nice for him to 445 00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:08,280 Speaker 1: be able to be a consistent performer regardless of kind 446 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:11,440 Speaker 1: of the circumstances. It sounds like wherever he has landed, 447 00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:13,879 Speaker 1: whatever he's doing, he's been able to perform well. And 448 00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:16,040 Speaker 1: you heard what he just said. He's played in eight 449 00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:19,159 Speaker 1: different defensive systems in his time in the league, and 450 00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:23,160 Speaker 1: that's because he started his career with the Browns. I'm 451 00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 1: not trying to make fun of the Browns, but the 452 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:27,879 Speaker 1: Browns have run through some coaches, they have run through 453 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:31,320 Speaker 1: some assistant coaches. Then he goes to Jacksonville and he 454 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:34,000 Speaker 1: plays for one coach and they get rid of him, 455 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:37,760 Speaker 1: and then they bring in Urban Meyer and he works 456 00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:40,040 Speaker 1: for several months in that system, then gets traded to 457 00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:43,080 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh and then he goes out to Denver only for 458 00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:45,720 Speaker 1: eight days. So he's seen eight systems through the course 459 00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:47,960 Speaker 1: of his career. And he's a brain. Yeah, you can 460 00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:51,840 Speaker 1: hear the way he talks. But I just love guys 461 00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:55,720 Speaker 1: with that sort of perspective. And you know, you think 462 00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:58,879 Speaker 1: about Kevin Byard and what's going to happen Friday night 463 00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:01,640 Speaker 1: at MT issue, same age guy. I think they're three 464 00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:05,560 Speaker 1: months apart in age. But you're married, you've got kids. 465 00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:10,080 Speaker 1: You can see there's gonna be life without football. You're 466 00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:13,200 Speaker 1: probably closer to the end than you are the start. 467 00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:17,480 Speaker 1: And you have friends in the neighborhood who have real 468 00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:23,159 Speaker 1: jobs and they're just normal. Yeah, people who are experiencing 469 00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:27,920 Speaker 1: real life as they are still playing in the NFL 470 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:33,040 Speaker 1: are I am finding some of my favorite players because 471 00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:37,640 Speaker 1: they have that perspective. They have a vision of the 472 00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:41,480 Speaker 1: bigger picture of what this opportunity and what this job 473 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:45,359 Speaker 1: means for them right now, and they can see how 474 00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:47,640 Speaker 1: it will help them in their future once the game 475 00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:49,840 Speaker 1: is over correct And I think that that is a 476 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:52,280 Speaker 1: valuable perspective to have, and I think it makes them 477 00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:54,440 Speaker 1: better players. I think it makes them better players too, 478 00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:58,040 Speaker 1: because I think they're more focused on the important things. Yep. 479 00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:03,440 Speaker 1: I don't think they waste time on the silliness of this, 480 00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:06,080 Speaker 1: that or the other, like all of us did when 481 00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:08,720 Speaker 1: we were twenty three or twenty four years old. You 482 00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:12,600 Speaker 1: know what's really important once things are put in front 483 00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:15,520 Speaker 1: of you from real life. Yeah, I had an apartment 484 00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:17,800 Speaker 1: in Silly Bow when I was twenty four. I'll tell 485 00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:22,000 Speaker 1: you right well, you know everybody did. So. Speaking of 486 00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:25,480 Speaker 1: Kevin Byrd, Friday Night, MT Issue, they are retiring his 487 00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:28,840 Speaker 1: number twenty. They're playing the University of Texas San Antonio. 488 00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:32,240 Speaker 1: Kickoff at Floyd Stadium is six thirty. I know everybody 489 00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:34,719 Speaker 1: from MTSUE is going to be there because that's their night. 490 00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:36,679 Speaker 1: I know Titan fans who are just going to go 491 00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:38,480 Speaker 1: because they want to see a good football game, a 492 00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:41,720 Speaker 1: team that just beat Miami of Florida, and because they 493 00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:45,399 Speaker 1: want to support Kevin Byard. Rutherford County in particular is 494 00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 1: proud of him. And I'm looking forward to being there 495 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:51,360 Speaker 1: tomorrow night. Rhet, Bryan and I are going. I think 496 00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:53,280 Speaker 1: there are other people going, but I just want to 497 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:56,679 Speaker 1: see that moment for him. Yeah, it's going to be 498 00:26:56,760 --> 00:27:01,080 Speaker 1: so cool. It was very fun to be a part 499 00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:03,959 Speaker 1: of telling him that this was going to be happening 500 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:06,199 Speaker 1: and kind of surprising him at practice. There were not 501 00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:08,919 Speaker 1: a lot of dry eyes in the joint when he 502 00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:12,120 Speaker 1: found out. It was just a very cool thing. So 503 00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:16,000 Speaker 1: now to actually have the ceremony and the game and 504 00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:19,040 Speaker 1: the full experience with all of the kind of pomp 505 00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:22,360 Speaker 1: and circumstance that comes with that, such an awesome thing. 506 00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:25,479 Speaker 1: And you couldn't find a more deserving human. You couldn't. 507 00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:28,639 Speaker 1: It's really going to be a great thing, and I'm 508 00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:30,760 Speaker 1: really excited about having a chance to be there. I'm 509 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:32,679 Speaker 1: glad you're going. Well, Rhet and I are fired up. 510 00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:35,520 Speaker 1: We're pumped. Yeah, we'll get all the work done and 511 00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:38,120 Speaker 1: then we're going to the ball game. Oh, Mike, that'll 512 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:40,280 Speaker 1: be a nice night out for you for us. Yeah, 513 00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:42,800 Speaker 1: looking forward to it. You know, Kevin Byrd was the 514 00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:47,000 Speaker 1: hero of the Indianapolis game last Halloween. He intercepted the 515 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:50,680 Speaker 1: pass in overtime set up the game winner. Oh yeah, 516 00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:54,400 Speaker 1: remember that? Oh yes, So that's how we're transitioning. I 517 00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:58,240 Speaker 1: said earlier this week wrongly that the Titans had won 518 00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:01,160 Speaker 1: two in a row and in Annapolis. They've won three 519 00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:04,720 Speaker 1: in a row at Indianapolis. So now they've won three 520 00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:07,439 Speaker 1: in a row at Indianapolis, three in a row in 521 00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:10,760 Speaker 1: the series, and four of the last five. That's why 522 00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:13,919 Speaker 1: Jim Eersay wants to win this game so badly. Yeah, 523 00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:17,280 Speaker 1: And I think it's interesting also there are so many 524 00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:20,040 Speaker 1: things about the Titans and the Colts that are similar. 525 00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 1: They're kind of built the same way in terms of 526 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 1: what they want to do and what kind of a 527 00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 1: team and what kind of identity they want to have. 528 00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:29,760 Speaker 1: So to have someone beat you at your own game 529 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:32,600 Speaker 1: that many times, it's got to be frustrating. Well, and 530 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 1: they've been a good team, right, Oh yeah, they they've 531 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:37,800 Speaker 1: been a good club. They are a good club. They're 532 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:41,000 Speaker 1: one one and one. On Monday, we had a chance 533 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:45,640 Speaker 1: to visit with the outstanding young voice of the Indianapolis Colts, 534 00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:49,280 Speaker 1: Matt Taylor. Amy was there, Rhett Brian was there, I 535 00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:51,000 Speaker 1: was there. We had a chance to talk to him, 536 00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:53,160 Speaker 1: and we weren't able to play all of it on 537 00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 1: Mike Vrabel Show because it was a long conversation. So 538 00:28:56,520 --> 00:28:59,240 Speaker 1: we want to give you the meat of what we 539 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:01,920 Speaker 1: got from Matt Taylor about where this ball club is 540 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 1: interesting place for the Indianapolis Colts right now without a doubt. 541 00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 1: So here's our chat with Matt Taylor, the voice of 542 00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:18,280 Speaker 1: the Indianapolis Colts. Matt Taylor, the voice of the Indianapolis 543 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:21,320 Speaker 1: Colts with us, let's talk about your outstanding running back 544 00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:25,000 Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor. So far this year, sixty one carries, two 545 00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:29,040 Speaker 1: hundred and eighty six yards a touchdown, eight catches for 546 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:34,080 Speaker 1: forty three yards. How would you characterize Jonathan Taylor's first 547 00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:37,040 Speaker 1: three games in twenty twenty two. Yeah, I'd say it's 548 00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:39,960 Speaker 1: been good, but it's certainly not been you know, statistically 549 00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:43,160 Speaker 1: speaking on par with how he closed last season. And 550 00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:44,720 Speaker 1: I think a lot of that has to do. It's 551 00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:47,000 Speaker 1: just how teams are playing the Colts, they're selling out 552 00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:49,960 Speaker 1: to stop the run, and quite frankly, the offensive line. 553 00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:52,000 Speaker 1: I think when you look at the Colts up and 554 00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:54,600 Speaker 1: down nature of the season to begin with, here, I 555 00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:57,360 Speaker 1: think the most disappointing factor, and that has been the 556 00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:01,440 Speaker 1: offensive wine. Teams are blitz the Colts like crazy. You're 557 00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:04,120 Speaker 1: seeing stunts and twists and text games at the line 558 00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:07,720 Speaker 1: of scrimmage, and the offensive line just isn't doing as 559 00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:10,600 Speaker 1: good enough job as they need to picking those things up. 560 00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:13,640 Speaker 1: I mean, Matt Ryan's been sacked twelve times already on 561 00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 1: the season, five times in each of the last two games. 562 00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:19,120 Speaker 1: It's not just the sacks, it's it's when they're coming. 563 00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:21,560 Speaker 1: They're coming on third down, or they're knocking the Colts 564 00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:24,360 Speaker 1: at a fuel goal range, or they're striped sacks that 565 00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:27,640 Speaker 1: are being recovered by the opposition. Those are the things 566 00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:30,560 Speaker 1: that are killing the Colts in terms of efficiency on offense, 567 00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 1: and I think that's going into the running game or 568 00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:35,440 Speaker 1: the lack there off in terms of the push of 569 00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:38,760 Speaker 1: the offensive line is giving for Jonathan Taylor, so you 570 00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:42,720 Speaker 1: certainly haven't seen nearly as many big explosive runs where 571 00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:45,360 Speaker 1: he's ripping off ten twenty yards at a time like 572 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,120 Speaker 1: was the case routinely last year to end the season, 573 00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:50,480 Speaker 1: they've been there. This year, they've They've been kind of 574 00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:52,840 Speaker 1: been sprinkled in here and there, but not nearly as 575 00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 1: consistent as last season. And I think that a lot 576 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:58,880 Speaker 1: has to do with the offensive line and they're inconsistencies 577 00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:02,560 Speaker 1: of wing up front getting that push. But again, the 578 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:04,840 Speaker 1: Colts just if you if you look at the three 579 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:08,560 Speaker 1: games in totality, they haven't been in favorable third down 580 00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 1: situations a ton. Now you've seen it here and there, 581 00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:13,600 Speaker 1: but a lot of times they're not worth winning on 582 00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:16,240 Speaker 1: first and second down, getting in the third and long 583 00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:18,320 Speaker 1: where you're not going to run the ball with Jonathan Taylor, 584 00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:20,840 Speaker 1: I think all of those factors have contributed to the 585 00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 1: Colts not being as explosive in the running games so far. 586 00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:26,200 Speaker 1: With number twenty eight, I'm mean to switch you over 587 00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:28,320 Speaker 1: to the defensive side of the ball. How has the 588 00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:32,040 Speaker 1: absence of linebacker Shack Leonard been felt on this team? 589 00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:35,160 Speaker 1: And who do you feel has really stepped up to 590 00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:39,080 Speaker 1: fill that role? Yeah, great question, and I think you 591 00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:41,680 Speaker 1: know there's no there's no question, there's no denying that 592 00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:44,080 Speaker 1: Shag Shack Leonard is the you know, the heart and 593 00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:46,080 Speaker 1: soul or whatever you want to call it, the guy 594 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:49,720 Speaker 1: that brings the juice and you know, mentally psychologically takes 595 00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:53,000 Speaker 1: that defense to the next level. And you just can't 596 00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:55,560 Speaker 1: take anything away from him and his takeaway ability and 597 00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:58,240 Speaker 1: his game changing ability, the way that he plays the game, 598 00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:01,280 Speaker 1: his propensity to you know, knocked the ball out or 599 00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:03,840 Speaker 1: get a strip sack or you know, just have a 600 00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 1: huge impact when he's out there. But I tell you, 601 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:08,720 Speaker 1: I've been really impressed with the Colts defense and their 602 00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:11,960 Speaker 1: ability to step up without him on the field and 603 00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:15,160 Speaker 1: against the run, you know, they really haven't missed a beat. 604 00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:17,200 Speaker 1: You know, they're giving up less than three yards per 605 00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:19,800 Speaker 1: carry on the season against the run. Against the Chiefs, 606 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:22,320 Speaker 1: you know, they ran for only like fifty eight yards 607 00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:25,360 Speaker 1: and their lead back Clyde Edwards, a layer, only had 608 00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:28,440 Speaker 1: like seven carries for no yards when you look at 609 00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:30,000 Speaker 1: it the box score at the end of the game. 610 00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:32,600 Speaker 1: So guys that have stepped up in a big way. 611 00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:36,200 Speaker 1: You've got Zayo Franklin, twelve tackles. E J. Speed's played great, 612 00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:40,040 Speaker 1: you know, covering as a linebacker. Bobby Okaake, those guys 613 00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:43,040 Speaker 1: really have stepped up without shack Leonard. I think the 614 00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:45,320 Speaker 1: biggest thing to this team when this defense is missing. 615 00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:48,520 Speaker 1: So far, they've been great. I'm pretty consistent. You know 616 00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:51,800 Speaker 1: that sack numbers aren't there and mass numbers, but again, 617 00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:54,840 Speaker 1: the pressure on Mahomes was really good. They're the running 618 00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:57,640 Speaker 1: game or the ability to stop the run that's been 619 00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:00,400 Speaker 1: there through three games. I guess what's missing is, again 620 00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 1: what I just said earlier is Leonard's ability to take 621 00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:06,160 Speaker 1: the football away. Because this Colts defense only has two 622 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:09,280 Speaker 1: takeaways through three games. That was a hallmark Last year 623 00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:11,920 Speaker 1: they had thirty three takeaways as a defense for the season, 624 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:15,080 Speaker 1: so they're not on pace to duplicate that. That's where 625 00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:18,560 Speaker 1: Leonard was so so good at just having this knack of, 626 00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:21,600 Speaker 1: you know, watching a ball carrier hold the ball and 627 00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:23,680 Speaker 1: being able to know when he can strike and go 628 00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:26,640 Speaker 1: after it and create a big play. So if they 629 00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:28,760 Speaker 1: get him back in this game, that would be big. 630 00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:30,840 Speaker 1: But it's I think you have to kind of curb 631 00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:33,680 Speaker 1: your enthusiasm if you're a Colts fan, considering this guy 632 00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:37,320 Speaker 1: hasn't played since January ninth. I think it was against 633 00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:40,080 Speaker 1: the Jacksonville Jaguars of last year, missed all of the 634 00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:43,840 Speaker 1: offseason workout program, missed all of training camp. He still 635 00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:46,120 Speaker 1: might have to come back slow if indeed he gets 636 00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:48,480 Speaker 1: back on the field coming up this Sunday, Matt Taylor, 637 00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:49,840 Speaker 1: I don't want to go back to what you said 638 00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:52,280 Speaker 1: about the people selling out to stop the run and 639 00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:55,080 Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor, and you made note of, you know, the 640 00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:58,160 Speaker 1: receivers that have been missing in spots before last week 641 00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:01,840 Speaker 1: with Michael Pittman and Alex p Year fourteen to forty 642 00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:04,000 Speaker 1: on third down. What are some of the other issues 643 00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:06,920 Speaker 1: as to why the Colts have had so much trouble 644 00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:10,319 Speaker 1: in converting third downs. Well, let's first and second down. 645 00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:12,279 Speaker 1: Like I said, I mean, teams are stopping the run, 646 00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:15,040 Speaker 1: you know, not as many big plays for Jonathan Taylor. 647 00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:17,560 Speaker 1: And if you go back to Week two against the Jaguars, 648 00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:20,239 Speaker 1: you know, again they were down without Michael Pittman and 649 00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:24,160 Speaker 1: Alec Pierce and no excuses, right, injuries happened to every team, 650 00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:27,520 Speaker 1: but guys in that game specifically just didn't step up. 651 00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:30,400 Speaker 1: You know, you had some drop third downs by Desmond Patman. 652 00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:33,920 Speaker 1: You know Paris Campbell didn't have a catch in that game. 653 00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:36,640 Speaker 1: You know, the tight ends weren't utilized a ton in 654 00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:39,600 Speaker 1: that game, So I think that's kind of a microcosm 655 00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:41,839 Speaker 1: for how the season has gone through three games. As 656 00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:46,080 Speaker 1: their struggles on third down against the Jacksonville Jaguars, the 657 00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:49,439 Speaker 1: Colts didn't get into nearly as many third downs as 658 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:51,799 Speaker 1: they did the week before because they were better on 659 00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:54,880 Speaker 1: first and second down, especially on that last drive of 660 00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:58,360 Speaker 1: the game. I think the Colts went sixteen plays seventy 661 00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:00,879 Speaker 1: five yards eight minutes, and I think they only face 662 00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:04,120 Speaker 1: two third downs on that possession. So that speaks to 663 00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:07,160 Speaker 1: their efficiency on first and second down, which they're trying 664 00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:10,680 Speaker 1: to duplicate going forward. But yeah, there's no question that 665 00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:14,719 Speaker 1: just again, the offensive line push, the reliability within the 666 00:35:14,760 --> 00:35:17,759 Speaker 1: past catchers outside of Michael Pittman Junior hasn't been there 667 00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:20,960 Speaker 1: as consistently as it needs to be. But again, yesterday 668 00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:23,800 Speaker 1: was a little bit better. They're taking incremental strides forward 669 00:35:23,840 --> 00:35:26,239 Speaker 1: as far as those things are concerned, and just trying 670 00:35:26,239 --> 00:35:28,279 Speaker 1: to put it all together in Week four against a 671 00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:31,279 Speaker 1: good Tennessee team, and it's obviously a huge game in 672 00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:33,919 Speaker 1: terms of the standings and what this game has meant 673 00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:36,759 Speaker 1: for the ultimate winner of the AFC South. When the 674 00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:40,719 Speaker 1: dust settles after a seventeen game schedule, Matt new quarterback 675 00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:44,279 Speaker 1: Matt Ryan thrown for over sixty thousand yards in his 676 00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:49,200 Speaker 1: career three hundred seventy touchdowns, but a new team settling 677 00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:53,319 Speaker 1: in figuring it all out. Is Matt Ryan coming off 678 00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:56,640 Speaker 1: his best game so far as an Indian Appea's cold 679 00:35:57,080 --> 00:35:59,879 Speaker 1: Yeah so far? Absolutely. Now, he had a great four 680 00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:02,360 Speaker 1: quarter against the Texans when they were down twenty to 681 00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:05,399 Speaker 1: three and rallying back to tie that game in Week 682 00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:08,760 Speaker 1: one was his best game. So he's been there before. 683 00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:11,200 Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's why the nickname exists, right, Mattie 684 00:36:11,200 --> 00:36:15,040 Speaker 1: Ice just being cool and comfortable in late game situations 685 00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:17,839 Speaker 1: when the game is on the line, and I think 686 00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:20,600 Speaker 1: you're seeing that trust. I think you're seeing that buy 687 00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:22,840 Speaker 1: in from the rest of the offense. But they just 688 00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:25,560 Speaker 1: got to get some of those little things corrected, like again, 689 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:29,240 Speaker 1: pressures and blitzes and let's pick up from the offensive line, 690 00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:32,239 Speaker 1: because there's been a lot of times where Ryan and 691 00:36:32,360 --> 00:36:33,879 Speaker 1: I know it's a new system and I know it's 692 00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:35,640 Speaker 1: a new scheme, but he just has he does not 693 00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:38,200 Speaker 1: have a lot of time to think out there because 694 00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:40,600 Speaker 1: guys are in his face and the Colts are going 695 00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:42,600 Speaker 1: to continue to see this. You guys know this. It's 696 00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:45,440 Speaker 1: a copycat league, and that leaky faucet is going to 697 00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:47,960 Speaker 1: continue to leak so long as you you know, you 698 00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:51,400 Speaker 1: don't fix those problems. And I would fully expecting his 699 00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:54,240 Speaker 1: seat to continue to bring people, you know, bring multiple 700 00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:57,560 Speaker 1: people off the edge or you know, provide those those 701 00:36:57,600 --> 00:36:59,560 Speaker 1: stunt games and the line of scrammlers to kind of 702 00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:02,839 Speaker 1: fool the Colts offensive lineman. There's just been a lot 703 00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:05,719 Speaker 1: of times where a thirty seven year old quarterback was 704 00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:08,160 Speaker 1: not a lot of mobility to begin with, is under 705 00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:10,880 Speaker 1: siege as soon as he takes a shotgun snap and 706 00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:13,040 Speaker 1: he's got to make quick decisions. He's trying to throw 707 00:37:13,080 --> 00:37:15,319 Speaker 1: the ball away or a guy's coming from behind him 708 00:37:15,320 --> 00:37:17,520 Speaker 1: and you know, creating a strip sack, as was the 709 00:37:17,520 --> 00:37:20,359 Speaker 1: case twice against the Chiefs. So they're trying to put 710 00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:23,200 Speaker 1: those things together to help Matt Ryan. But when he's 711 00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:26,440 Speaker 1: been protected, I mean, this goes this is an obvious statement, certainly, 712 00:37:26,440 --> 00:37:29,640 Speaker 1: but when he's been protected and he's got time, you know, 713 00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:32,960 Speaker 1: he's still pinpoint accurate, he's got great ball placement, and 714 00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:35,319 Speaker 1: he's still you know, one of the best quarterbacks in 715 00:37:35,400 --> 00:37:38,040 Speaker 1: terms of just throwing of the football. The accuracy is 716 00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:41,440 Speaker 1: still playing in the NFL, just like a Brady or Rodgers, 717 00:37:41,719 --> 00:37:44,080 Speaker 1: but he's got to have time and so far this year, 718 00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:48,680 Speaker 1: consistently it hasn't been that way by the Colts offensive line. Matt, 719 00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:52,200 Speaker 1: you had said that the Colts best football is still 720 00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:54,800 Speaker 1: ahead of them. So in your mind, what area do 721 00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:56,880 Speaker 1: the Colts need to tighten up a little bit to 722 00:37:57,000 --> 00:38:01,319 Speaker 1: consistently be playing their best football? Well, I think the 723 00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:04,160 Speaker 1: strength of this team so far, are you know, stopping 724 00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:07,040 Speaker 1: the run? I would say, you know, you know, you've 725 00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:10,000 Speaker 1: got Jonathan Taylor, so you need to have him continue 726 00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:12,560 Speaker 1: to be, you know, a major part of this offense. 727 00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:16,439 Speaker 1: Get him anywhere between eighteen to twenty five carries per game. 728 00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:18,680 Speaker 1: But I hate to just be a dead horse. But 729 00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:21,799 Speaker 1: it's the protection upfront that's what's holding this team back 730 00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:25,120 Speaker 1: right now. And then on defense, they were stopping the run, 731 00:38:25,160 --> 00:38:27,640 Speaker 1: but they were also giving up a high completion percentage. 732 00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:30,720 Speaker 1: You know, I think, you know, Davis Mills and Trevor Lawrence, 733 00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:32,560 Speaker 1: who I think are going to be good quarterbacks that 734 00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:35,359 Speaker 1: are growing into their own. But as of right now, 735 00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:38,760 Speaker 1: you wouldn't categorize these guys as elites, you know, top 736 00:38:38,920 --> 00:38:42,120 Speaker 1: five quarterbacks just yet. But the Colts allowed those guys 737 00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:44,680 Speaker 1: to complete over seventy percent of their passes and get 738 00:38:44,760 --> 00:38:48,200 Speaker 1: some easy chunk plays and had a hard time slowing 739 00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:50,160 Speaker 1: people down in front of them. So I think those 740 00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:52,440 Speaker 1: are the two areas they're trying to shore off on 741 00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:54,919 Speaker 1: on both sides of the ball. Is better push, better 742 00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:58,239 Speaker 1: protection up front and slowing down the big plays and 743 00:38:58,320 --> 00:39:02,759 Speaker 1: not giving up such easy pletions to quarterbacks get into 744 00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:04,879 Speaker 1: a groove and get into a rhythm early. I think 745 00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:08,000 Speaker 1: if Ryan Tannehill gets into an early rhythm in this game, 746 00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:10,719 Speaker 1: that could be bad for the Colts, especially if Derrick 747 00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:13,440 Speaker 1: Henry's running the football and they're winning up front on 748 00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:16,520 Speaker 1: first and second down. So I think those are the 749 00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:18,960 Speaker 1: things the Colts are trying to shore up. Special teams wise, 750 00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:21,520 Speaker 1: Like I said as he began, I think they've been really, 751 00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:24,000 Speaker 1: really solid. They kind of tweaked some things in the 752 00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:26,719 Speaker 1: second Dary. They played Isaiah Rogers Moore when they went 753 00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:30,080 Speaker 1: Nickel package over a guy like Brandon facing That seemed 754 00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:32,239 Speaker 1: to help a little bit. The Colts knew they had 755 00:39:32,239 --> 00:39:35,440 Speaker 1: to plaster receivers with Patrick Mahomes running all over the place. 756 00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:38,400 Speaker 1: Ryan Tannehill not so much that guy. So it'll be 757 00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:41,719 Speaker 1: interesting to see what they do in the secondary to 758 00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:44,880 Speaker 1: kind of combat the strengths of this Titans defense. But 759 00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:47,680 Speaker 1: high completion percentage has definitely been a bugaboof for the 760 00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:52,400 Speaker 1: Colts through three games. You mentioned the protection issues along 761 00:39:52,440 --> 00:39:55,000 Speaker 1: the offensive line. Is it in one particular place or 762 00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:57,640 Speaker 1: is it coming from everywhere? With the twelve quarterback sacks 763 00:39:57,640 --> 00:40:00,799 Speaker 1: they surrendered in the first three games, Yeah, say right now, 764 00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:03,160 Speaker 1: I mean it has. Everybody's been guilty of it, right 765 00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:05,560 Speaker 1: and when you play five is one as the offensive 766 00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:08,320 Speaker 1: line tries to do, you know, everybody's going to be culpable. 767 00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:10,960 Speaker 1: But I would say more often than not, it's coming 768 00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:13,920 Speaker 1: from the interior. It's center in both guards, and I 769 00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:16,520 Speaker 1: think that's the stunts in the text games, you know, 770 00:40:16,640 --> 00:40:19,359 Speaker 1: especially when you've got defensive ends swinging inside and coming 771 00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:21,720 Speaker 1: right up the gut. You know, when when a center 772 00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:24,200 Speaker 1: declares I'm gonna help on on one side or the other. 773 00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:27,080 Speaker 1: In terms of more protection from a guard, you know 774 00:40:27,120 --> 00:40:29,759 Speaker 1: you've got a defensive end or safety blitzing late coming 775 00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:33,920 Speaker 1: right at the quarterback unscathed, untouched. That's been the problem. 776 00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:37,040 Speaker 1: So I think you know your two guards. You know, obviously, 777 00:40:37,120 --> 00:40:39,480 Speaker 1: Quentin Nelson is you know, he's he's the best guard 778 00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:41,200 Speaker 1: in the NF Valley. He was paid as such a 779 00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:43,240 Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago, right before the start of the season. 780 00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:45,719 Speaker 1: You know, he's on pace to be, you know, one 781 00:40:45,719 --> 00:40:48,399 Speaker 1: of the best players in franchise history. But then you've 782 00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:51,200 Speaker 1: got a guy that's only played three games at the 783 00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:54,319 Speaker 1: right guard position and Danny Pinter and it's been up 784 00:40:54,320 --> 00:40:56,000 Speaker 1: and down for him, and they're trying to figure out 785 00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:59,080 Speaker 1: the best combination of offensive linemen out there. You know, 786 00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:01,840 Speaker 1: could it be you know, put your rookie Bernard Ryman 787 00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:04,920 Speaker 1: a left tackle, have left tackle Matt pryor swing at 788 00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:07,680 Speaker 1: the right guard position. I think everything right now is 789 00:41:07,719 --> 00:41:10,000 Speaker 1: sort of on the table as the Colts figure out 790 00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:12,040 Speaker 1: who they are up front, where they need to be, 791 00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:15,280 Speaker 1: and what their best personnel lineup should be to protect 792 00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:18,440 Speaker 1: a thirty seven year old quarterback. Matt Taylor. Thank you 793 00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:20,560 Speaker 1: as always, and we look forward to seeing you in 794 00:41:20,600 --> 00:41:24,880 Speaker 1: the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday at Lucas Oil Stadium. My pleasure, guys. 795 00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:33,880 Speaker 1: All right, that's Matt Taylor talking about the Indianapolis Colts. 796 00:41:33,960 --> 00:41:38,440 Speaker 1: The Indianapolis Colts injury report for Thursday saw them get 797 00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:43,880 Speaker 1: the majority of their players back. Only safety Julian Blackman, 798 00:41:43,960 --> 00:41:47,000 Speaker 1: with an ankle, did not practice for the second straight day, 799 00:41:47,520 --> 00:41:50,600 Speaker 1: and DeForrest Buckner, defensive tackle, did not practice for the 800 00:41:50,640 --> 00:41:53,400 Speaker 1: second straight day with an elbow. He did work out 801 00:41:53,440 --> 00:41:56,520 Speaker 1: on the side, though, with some sort of contraption on 802 00:41:56,600 --> 00:42:00,720 Speaker 1: his elbow. I think he's playing, yeah, to find Gilmour 803 00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:03,360 Speaker 1: was back to practice. Pro Bowl center Ryan Kelly was 804 00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:07,640 Speaker 1: back to practice. Outside linebacker yannicking Goaquay was back to practice, 805 00:42:08,040 --> 00:42:12,160 Speaker 1: and so was Jonathan Taylor, the talented running back. He 806 00:42:12,200 --> 00:42:14,040 Speaker 1: was back to practice today. Do you feel kind of 807 00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:17,640 Speaker 1: bad he broke that streak he had? It's really remarkable. 808 00:42:17,719 --> 00:42:22,520 Speaker 1: So he missed practice on Wednesday. And in case you 809 00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:27,080 Speaker 1: didn't know it, Adam Schefter pointed this out. Jonathan Taylor 810 00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:29,880 Speaker 1: never missed a practice in high school, never missed a 811 00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:34,440 Speaker 1: practice at Wisconsin, and had never missed a practice in 812 00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:39,560 Speaker 1: the National Football League, and yet he missed yesterday's practice. 813 00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:42,759 Speaker 1: But here's what's really fascinating. You know, this is a 814 00:42:42,880 --> 00:42:45,920 Speaker 1: third year in the league. He did miss a game 815 00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:50,960 Speaker 1: against the Titans two years ago, but he practiced leading 816 00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:56,920 Speaker 1: up too. He got COVID or he was he was 817 00:42:56,960 --> 00:43:01,719 Speaker 1: put into the protocol the day before the game, and 818 00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:04,880 Speaker 1: there is no practice the day in that way, and 819 00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:07,239 Speaker 1: so then he was able to get back by the 820 00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:12,359 Speaker 1: following Wednesday. I feel I mean, you know, we're going 821 00:43:12,440 --> 00:43:15,800 Speaker 1: up against them and so whatever for a lot of things. 822 00:43:15,920 --> 00:43:19,680 Speaker 1: But I feel kind of bad that. I mean, it 823 00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:22,600 Speaker 1: seems like he's okay, he was a full participant. He's 824 00:43:22,600 --> 00:43:27,160 Speaker 1: gonna play. Yeah, he's gonna play on Sunday. I'm sure 825 00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:31,359 Speaker 1: of it. Sure, And here he is starting over at 826 00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:34,960 Speaker 1: day one after all of that time. I think I'm 827 00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:40,719 Speaker 1: gonna make it. I just here's the Titans injury list. 828 00:43:40,760 --> 00:43:45,120 Speaker 1: Traylan Burkes was back from illness. Zack Cunningham did not 829 00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:48,360 Speaker 1: practice for the second straight day with an elbow. Amani 830 00:43:48,600 --> 00:43:51,360 Speaker 1: Hooker did not practice for the second straight day with 831 00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:55,600 Speaker 1: a concussion. Austin Hooper didn't practice yesterday with the neck, 832 00:43:56,280 --> 00:44:00,319 Speaker 1: but he did practice in a limited fashion today. A 833 00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:04,600 Speaker 1: Dainty a second straight day of limited participation with a neck. 834 00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:10,520 Speaker 1: Ugo Amadi limited yesterday with his ankle, did not practice today. 835 00:44:11,360 --> 00:44:14,320 Speaker 1: Don't know what that means. Sometimes a guy is a setback. 836 00:44:14,360 --> 00:44:16,759 Speaker 1: Sometimes they just decide to hold him the day after 837 00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:19,040 Speaker 1: and then they'll come back tomorrow and see if he 838 00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:21,360 Speaker 1: could go. Would be good to have Ugo back. Christian 839 00:44:21,440 --> 00:44:25,960 Speaker 1: Fulton with a knee limited yesterday, full participant today. Kyle 840 00:44:25,960 --> 00:44:30,400 Speaker 1: Phillips with a shoulder limited again today after being limited yesterday. 841 00:44:30,520 --> 00:44:34,960 Speaker 1: Bud Dupree with a hip, full participant yesterday, limited today. 842 00:44:35,640 --> 00:44:39,600 Speaker 1: Nate Davis did not practice with a knee that has 843 00:44:39,640 --> 00:44:42,640 Speaker 1: been kind of common for him. Is taking some Thursdays off, 844 00:44:43,200 --> 00:44:46,560 Speaker 1: so hopefully he'll be back tomorrow. Cody Hollister out with 845 00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:49,480 Speaker 1: a back injury, and that is apparently something that has 846 00:44:49,520 --> 00:44:53,680 Speaker 1: just occurred because he did practice yesterday. The injury report 847 00:44:54,280 --> 00:44:56,560 Speaker 1: very interesting. Thank you yep? Are you ready to go 848 00:44:56,640 --> 00:44:59,040 Speaker 1: do this thing? Oh?

Tomorrow night we're going 854 00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:18,120 Speaker 1: to celebrate the mayor of Murfreesboro, and then on Saturday 855 00:45:18,120 --> 00:45:20,800 Speaker 1: and Sunday will celebrate you the mayor of INDIANAPPI I 856 00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:24,839 Speaker 1: am not the mayor of Indianapolis.

I just like big games. Division 863 00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:49,080 Speaker 1: games are big games and it's fun. You know, people say, oh, 864 00:45:49,200 --> 00:45:52,880 Speaker 1: Houston's record or Jacksonville's didn't make any difference. Every division 865 00:45:52,920 --> 00:45:55,200 Speaker 1: game is a big game because if you go five 866 00:45:55,239 --> 00:45:57,520 Speaker 1: and one in the division, you're probably going to win 867 00:45:57,560 --> 00:46:00,759 Speaker 1: the division. That's true, you know, because you'll do enough 868 00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:04,000 Speaker 1: everywhere else to fill it in. But for all the 869 00:46:04,040 --> 00:46:05,960 Speaker 1: people when this team was ozin two, we're saying, well 870 00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:08,280 Speaker 1: it's over, it's like, well, you've still got six division games, 871 00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:12,960 Speaker 1: and the more of those you tick off, the better 872 00:46:13,080 --> 00:46:14,879 Speaker 1: chance that you have. And I'm not talking about going 873 00:46:15,040 --> 00:46:18,719 Speaker 1: seven and ten and winning the division. I'm saying that 874 00:46:18,920 --> 00:46:22,440 Speaker 1: normally like what Cincinnati did last year. They won ten games, 875 00:46:22,440 --> 00:46:24,400 Speaker 1: but I think they were five and one in the division. 876 00:46:25,160 --> 00:46:27,239 Speaker 1: This is what it's all about. Yep, you got to 877 00:46:27,239 --> 00:46:30,040 Speaker 1: win those division games. Well, it's it's just and when 878 00:46:30,040 --> 00:46:33,560 Speaker 1: you go on the road, it's an opportunity. When you're 879 00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:36,320 Speaker 1: at home, you have to hold serve. Like in tennis, 880 00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:40,480 Speaker 1: the pressure is on the home team. Yeah. Yeah, And 881 00:46:40,880 --> 00:46:44,399 Speaker 1: Indianapolis has made it very clear that they know who 882 00:46:44,440 --> 00:46:52,080 Speaker 1: this opponent is. Primal passionate. It's a thing. I just 883 00:46:52,120 --> 00:46:55,239 Speaker 1: want to know what a Primal fan base looks like. 884 00:46:56,320 --> 00:46:58,960 Speaker 1: Are they wearing like furs, like some sort of animal 885 00:46:59,120 --> 00:47:01,960 Speaker 1: skin this Like? I don't think that would go over 886 00:47:02,200 --> 00:47:04,640 Speaker 1: Oh I don't know. I mean, I just don't even 887 00:47:04,640 --> 00:47:06,200 Speaker 1: know what that would look like.
