Speaker 1: Orc had had what's her name? In the Black Eyed

00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:53,520
Speaker 1: Peace Fergie Fergie was a look up Wild Orchid too incredible.

Speaker 1: It was too with Mickey Rourke and Carrie Otis, who

17
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:00,440
Speaker 1: is not better not get into that on this show

18
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:02,600
Speaker 1: right here, But I know what I'm talking about right there.

19
00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:06,759
Speaker 1: That's Wild Orchid the film. But no Bronie question, Chris.

20
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:09,839
Speaker 1: We'll start right here. Ale Emporium, Castleton, bud Light Blue Friday,

21
00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:12,399
Speaker 1: We're gonna give away tickets to the Commander's Colts game

22
00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:14,640
Speaker 1: for you. Coming up in just a minute. Colts won

23
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:18,479
Speaker 1: last week large part Matt Ryan fifty eight attempts, third

24
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:21,720
Speaker 1: most franchise history, those forty two completions, Chris, you talked

25
00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:25,200
Speaker 1: about it earlier, a franchise record. Can the offense continue

26
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:29,040
Speaker 1: to win that way? Where is the happy medium? Well,

27
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:34,240
Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor coming back now help out this team. Think

28
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 1: you need balance. I don't think you can win that

29
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,200
Speaker 1: way week in week out. I think you need to

30
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,320
Speaker 1: run the ball and sprinkle in the pass the quick passes,

31
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:44,840
Speaker 1: the play action passes predicated on success in the running game.

32
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:47,720
Speaker 1: And to that end, you really love to see JT,

33
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:51,360
Speaker 1: the reigning NFL rushing champ, back in a big game

34
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:52,720
Speaker 1: where both teams are going to try to run the

35
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:55,160
Speaker 1: football and eat some clock. Since Frank Reich started coaching

36
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:59,120
Speaker 1: the Colts, they're six and fifteen when they attempt at

37
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:02,320
Speaker 1: least forty passes in a game, six and fifteen. This

38
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 1: season they are two zero and one over that number.

39
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:08,480
Speaker 1: They flip the script. Usually if you throw a lot

40
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:11,600
Speaker 1: of passes, it's because you fall behind early. You're playing

41
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:14,239
Speaker 1: catch up. The whole game. Colts did fall behind last

42
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:16,760
Speaker 1: week fourteen three had to play catch up. Dan had

43
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:18,200
Speaker 1: to play catch up and take the lead in the

44
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 1: fourth quarter. As Frank said, you do what you need

45
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 1: to do. They're different ways to win games. Things that

46
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:25,680
Speaker 1: are called upon. That was the case last week. A

47
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 1: lot of passes, no huddle. I don't think that will

48
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 1: be the recipe for success the rest of the way,

49
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:32,680
Speaker 1: but it is interesting to see how those trends have changed.

50
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 1: As for Matt Ryan's career, when he throws over a

51
00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:40,799
Speaker 1: forty or more passes twenty seven, forty nine and one

52
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:42,720
Speaker 1: forty plus, it goes to show you if you're throwing

53
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:45,959
Speaker 1: a lot, things aren't going well, you're playing catch up sometimes,

54
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,880
Speaker 1: you know, That's what fantasy players love. Fantasy football players

55
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:52,600
Speaker 1: love to see their receivers losing big because then they're

56
00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:54,400
Speaker 1: catching a lot of passes. But yeah, you want to

57
00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:55,840
Speaker 1: you want to stick to the game plan. You want

58
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:58,520
Speaker 1: to establish the run and mix in some passes. Certainly

59
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 1: don't want to be thrown it almost sixty times. Sunday

60
00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:03,560
Speaker 1: down in Nashville, Colt Tappy Hour continues on again for

61
00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:05,600
Speaker 1: the Al Emporium on a bud Light Blue Friday. I

62
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:07,920
Speaker 1: got to thank our friends from Zinc, Jim Junior in

63
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:10,920
Speaker 1: the gang for just being fantastic each and every Friday

64
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:13,520
Speaker 1: with us, our friends at bud Light and Al Emporium

65
00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 1: and Castleton is an awesome place. We'll start giving away

66
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,360
Speaker 1: those tickets in just a second. But as we start

67
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:20,800
Speaker 1: every single Colt Tappy Hour, the voice of the Colts,

68
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:24,640
Speaker 1: Matt Taylor and his conversation with head coach Frank Reich. Matt,

69
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:26,799
Speaker 1: all right, thank you, jam V. It's time now for

70
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:29,360
Speaker 1: the head Coaches Report with head coach Frank Reich here

71
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 1: on Colt Tappy Hour and coach obviously, coming off that

72
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 1: win over the Jaguars, the team played with control and

73
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:39,760
Speaker 1: poised down the stretch in the fourth quarter. Where is

74
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:42,080
Speaker 1: this team right now? You've won two games in a row.

75
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:45,400
Speaker 1: Where's the team right now? In terms of confidence going

76
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:48,640
Speaker 1: into this very important game division game against the Titans.

77
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:51,520
Speaker 1: I do think the team is confident. I do think

78
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 1: we understand this is a week to week league. You

79
00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 1: need to prove it every week. But we have to

80
00:03:55,520 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 1: beat two good teams, particularly two really good defense teams

81
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:04,640
Speaker 1: and good teams overall. So and we know that's what

82
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:06,960
Speaker 1: we're facing this week against the Titans. But I do

83
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 1: think the confidence level is high. Tennessee's won four straight

84
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:13,320
Speaker 1: games over the Colts, They've won the division two years

85
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:16,400
Speaker 1: in a row. You certainly respect the Titans, as you

86
00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:20,200
Speaker 1: said earlier, you know they've earned your respect. How is

87
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 1: the team viewing this game? What is the mindset knowing

88
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:27,800
Speaker 1: what Tennessee represents and the challenge they've been for you

89
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:30,240
Speaker 1: here as of late. I think it's this is what

90
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:32,840
Speaker 1: we as competitors live for. You know, you're going up

91
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:37,480
Speaker 1: against the defending AFC South champs. This is what our

92
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:41,160
Speaker 1: goal is, right, So what else do you want? I mean,

93
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:44,640
Speaker 1: we're in the position we want to be in. We

94
00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:47,160
Speaker 1: have an opportunity to take the lead in the AFC

95
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:52,240
Speaker 1: South by beating them on their own turf. So I

96
00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 1: think we understand the challenge before us, but I think

97
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:56,480
Speaker 1: everyone's looking forward to it. One guy I want to

98
00:04:56,560 --> 00:05:00,400
Speaker 1: highlight specifically going into the game is Roddy mc cloud.

99
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:02,160
Speaker 1: You know, he was a guy that was brought in

100
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:05,640
Speaker 1: free agency. He was primarily running with the twos during

101
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:08,479
Speaker 1: training camp, and he's a ten to eleven year vet

102
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:10,359
Speaker 1: and he handled that with a lot of class and

103
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:13,599
Speaker 1: a lot of professionalism. And then in week three, you know,

104
00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:16,520
Speaker 1: you leaned on his experience going into Kansas City trying

105
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,599
Speaker 1: to slow down Patrick Mahomes. And then he hasn't left

106
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:22,320
Speaker 1: the starting lineup since. What has he meant for the

107
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 1: stability in the secondary and just what he brings in

108
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:29,120
Speaker 1: the passing defensive game. Well, when Rodney was available, that

109
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 1: was an easy discussion for Chris Ballard. And obviously I

110
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 1: was with Rodney in Philadelphia, and when Chris asked me

111
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,080
Speaker 1: about him, I mean, I was like, oh man, we

112
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,239
Speaker 1: gotta get this guy. I'm just telling you, this guy

113
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:44,120
Speaker 1: is not only an excellent football player, but he is

114
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:47,280
Speaker 1: a bona fide star leader. You know, he just has

115
00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 1: a presence about him. He's a great teammate, a great

116
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:54,080
Speaker 1: team player. I just really think he's helped settle our

117
00:05:54,160 --> 00:06:01,360
Speaker 1: defense down very poised, just very intentional, very intense as

118
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:05,560
Speaker 1: a person, so really excited about the contribution Rodney's making.

119
00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,839
Speaker 1: You know, one thing going into this game that stood

120
00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,320
Speaker 1: out to me is if you look at Tennessee in

121
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:14,239
Speaker 1: the splits in terms of when they play well versus

122
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 1: when they're trying to hold on if you will, they're

123
00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:20,239
Speaker 1: they're plus thirty five in the first half and minus

124
00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:22,839
Speaker 1: fifty seven in the second half. So they've been a

125
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:25,840
Speaker 1: fast starting team. They've gotten off to hot starts. Do

126
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:27,720
Speaker 1: you do you put much stock into that? How much

127
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:29,800
Speaker 1: weight do you put on that going into this game

128
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 1: facing them for the second time? Well, I mean, you know,

129
00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 1: we look at it, you know, really it comes down

130
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 1: to play by play, series by series, right. So what

131
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:40,040
Speaker 1: it tells you about them though, that their offense has

132
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 1: been very good on opening drives. I think they've scored

133
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,680
Speaker 1: a touchdown in four out of the five games that

134
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 1: they've had, so they've done a really good job there.

135
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:52,159
Speaker 1: So you know, you talk about that as a defensive staff,

136
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:53,960
Speaker 1: and you know, what are we going to do? You know,

137
00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:56,239
Speaker 1: how are we going to handle that? What? What? What's

138
00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 1: their formula? Can we unlock the key to their formula

139
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,800
Speaker 1: the success they've had, So I'm confident gust and the

140
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:05,359
Speaker 1: guys have been working on that all week. He and

141
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:08,000
Speaker 1: I have talked about it a little bit, you know. So,

142
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:10,960
Speaker 1: and then they've done a good job on defense early

143
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:14,360
Speaker 1: in games as well, and we've been slow starting on offense.

144
00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:17,160
Speaker 1: So it'd be a great shot in the arm, right

145
00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:19,559
Speaker 1: to start this game out fast, yet on both sides

146
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:22,400
Speaker 1: of the ball. Yeah, no doubt about that. Also, Tennessee,

147
00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:25,360
Speaker 1: as you've alluded to, they do not make mistakes. They

148
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 1: only have six turnovers on the season, no turnovers in

149
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:32,160
Speaker 1: the last two games. And over the course of the

150
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:35,160
Speaker 1: recent pass between the Colts and Titans, how much have

151
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:39,720
Speaker 1: turnovers gone and deciding who wins these games? It's been

152
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 1: a big deal. I mean, the turnovers have been a

153
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:45,360
Speaker 1: big deal, as they normally are usually the two biggest

154
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:49,680
Speaker 1: the two biggest stats in my mind that impact the game.

155
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:51,440
Speaker 1: There's a lot, but if you had to put your

156
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 1: finger on two, it's turnovers and it's the quarterback rating

157
00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:57,280
Speaker 1: of each quarterback. And the reason quarterback rating is because

158
00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 1: that's such a team stat. There's a lot of things

159
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:01,600
Speaker 1: that go into that. But we look at those numbers

160
00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:04,040
Speaker 1: every week, and you know, if you win the if

161
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:06,440
Speaker 1: your quarterback has a higher quarterback rating than that than

162
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,760
Speaker 1: there's and if you win the turnover battle, man, yeah,

163
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:12,720
Speaker 1: I mean you're going to win a very very high percentage.

164
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:14,400
Speaker 1: At the time, so was I mean, we got to

165
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:17,000
Speaker 1: protect our passer, we got to be efficient, and we

166
00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:19,880
Speaker 1: got to effect negatively affect their passer and then we

167
00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:22,120
Speaker 1: got to win the turnover battle. Yeah. I mean Tennessee again,

168
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 1: they're they're not explosive on offense. I mean, if we

169
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:28,640
Speaker 1: just watched the film, they don't have a huge number

170
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:31,360
Speaker 1: of twenty five games in the passing game and things

171
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:34,440
Speaker 1: like that. But they are twelve or thirteen in the

172
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:36,920
Speaker 1: red zone, so they don't miss chances, right, and they've

173
00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:40,640
Speaker 1: converted eleven straight chances inside the twenty yard line. Why

174
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:43,880
Speaker 1: are they so good and efficient inside the twenty Well,

175
00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 1: one thing is they run it well, you know. I

176
00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:47,320
Speaker 1: mean most of the teams that are good in the

177
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,360
Speaker 1: red zone run the ball in the red zone. And

178
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:51,320
Speaker 1: they've done a good job. And they do just enough

179
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:53,000
Speaker 1: in the past game and some of the play action

180
00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:56,559
Speaker 1: game when they're down there, like you said, to be effective.

181
00:08:56,960 --> 00:09:01,240
Speaker 1: You know, we have you know, we have a our defense.

182
00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:03,840
Speaker 1: We talk about, hey, and they at least two stops

183
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:05,520
Speaker 1: in the red zone. You know, we need at least two,

184
00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:09,959
Speaker 1: at least two and that'll be a big that'll be

185
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:13,760
Speaker 1: a big factor in this game. Defensively, Tennessee not so

186
00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:16,720
Speaker 1: great against the past, but top five against the run.

187
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:19,720
Speaker 1: I mean they've only allowed eighty one rushing yards combined

188
00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:22,840
Speaker 1: in the last two games. Is its scheme? Is it players?

189
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,640
Speaker 1: What makes them so good at slowing down teams? Bread

190
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:27,400
Speaker 1: and butter. It's a little bit of both. I mean,

191
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:31,440
Speaker 1: they have an excellent scheme that's been proven over the

192
00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:34,439
Speaker 1: years they've been there. But they do have they're they're

193
00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:37,760
Speaker 1: they're really good up front. You know, they're really good

194
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 1: up front, a good linebacker play, they're secondary players, are

195
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:45,760
Speaker 1: good tacklers, they do they're good crack replace that. You know,

196
00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 1: they're good gap integrity. So they have a good scheme,

197
00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:52,360
Speaker 1: all right. Coach on the road, huge game rematch of

198
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:55,560
Speaker 1: Tennessee and Colts, round number two. Your keys of this

199
00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:57,320
Speaker 1: game for the Colts to win it? Yeah, Matt, I

200
00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:59,719
Speaker 1: mean actually just kind of alluded to it early, right

201
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:03,200
Speaker 1: to turn and overthink, that's gotta be one. The quarterback

202
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:05,920
Speaker 1: rating think, you know, like you said that it's not explosive,

203
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:09,920
Speaker 1: but the quarterback rating includes touchdown passes for them and

204
00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:12,600
Speaker 1: interceptions for them. So we got to get that thing

205
00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:14,880
Speaker 1: turned in the right direction and then the same thing

206
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:18,000
Speaker 1: for us. That has to be a positive outcome for us.

207
00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:19,839
Speaker 1: And if I had to put my finger on one

208
00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:21,679
Speaker 1: other thing. I would say, it's going to be red

209
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:23,880
Speaker 1: zone on both sides of the ball, you know, because

210
00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:25,320
Speaker 1: of how good they are in the red zone. We

211
00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:27,680
Speaker 1: got to get our share stops and then we got

212
00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:29,920
Speaker 1: to continue the trend that we had last week when

213
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:31,280
Speaker 1: we were three out of four in the red zone.

214
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:33,200
Speaker 1: We got to continue that trend, no doubt about it.

215
00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:35,880
Speaker 1: That's head coach Frank Reich before the Colts take on

216

257
00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:48,120
Speaker 1: Alumporium and Castleton on a bud Light Blue Friday. This

258
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:50,319
Speaker 1: is Colts Happy Hour on ninety three five and one

259
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:53,280
Speaker 1: oh seven five the fan. The burning question is how

260
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:55,520
Speaker 1: are they going to handle the offense? They're going to

261
00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:57,440
Speaker 1: take a lot of aspects of what we saw against

262
00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:00,240
Speaker 1: Jacksonville to Nashville or leave some of the in the

263
00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:03,080
Speaker 1: dressing room. I think you you build on what the

264
00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:05,800
Speaker 1: success you had, but you you went into battle without

265
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:08,320
Speaker 1: some of your key weapons. You know, in football they

266
00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:10,880
Speaker 1: always like to say next man up, but in reality,

267
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:12,480
Speaker 1: you want to have your best man up. And that's

268
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:14,240
Speaker 1: what you're gonna have when you see how many guys

269
00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:17,560
Speaker 1: are back, so many people off the injury list. Obviously

270
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:19,760
Speaker 1: on the defensive side of the ball, Noshak kill Leonard,

271
00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:22,400
Speaker 1: but on offense getting healthy, they seem to have got

272
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,360
Speaker 1: the line somehow figured out, at least for the time being.

273
00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:28,000
Speaker 1: So go out there, establish a run, don't lean as

274
00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:30,200
Speaker 1: heavily on the pass. And if you if you stay

275
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:31,880
Speaker 1: in a one score game or get a lead, you're

276
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:33,320
Speaker 1: not gonna have to throw the ball so much. You're

277
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:35,600
Speaker 1: not gonna be playing catchup, and you especially don't want

278
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:37,440
Speaker 1: to do that on the road. Do you watch blanket

279
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:40,640
Speaker 1: ship kick field goals last night? Hot Rod, he's back

280
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:42,880
Speaker 1: hot right right a fifty yard or vooted the fifty

281
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:44,720
Speaker 1: yard or then missed an extra point? Yeah, he did

282
00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:48,960
Speaker 1: that is the hot and cold right? Is that's him?

283
00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:53,200
Speaker 1: That was Rodrigo Blanketship kicking for the Cardinals on Thursday

284
00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 1: Night Football last night. Meantime, more on the Colts right now.

285
00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:59,280
Speaker 1: We're gonna bring in the former NFL coach and of

286
00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:03,920
Speaker 1: course support that duo in the booth radio wise, Rick Venturi,

287
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:07,080
Speaker 1: of course, we'll break things down for this matchup coming

288
00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:10,320
Speaker 1: up in Nashville with the Titans on Sunday. He and

289
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:12,800
Speaker 1: Matt Taylor talk it up now, Matt, go ahead, take

290
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:15,559
Speaker 1: it away, all right, thank you, JMV. Let's talk XS

291
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:18,400
Speaker 1: and os on Inside Football here on Colts Happy Hour.

292
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:21,280
Speaker 1: I'm Matt Taylor with Rick Venturry, and let's talk about

293
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:23,520
Speaker 1: the blueprints for the Colts to win this game. Let's

294
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:26,680
Speaker 1: start first with the Tennessee offense, which has been much

295
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:29,280
Speaker 1: better in the first half compared to the second half. Rick.

296
00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:33,120
Speaker 1: In fact, they've only scored fourteen second half points all season,

297
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:36,080
Speaker 1: which is dead last in the NFL. But that hasn't

298
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:38,840
Speaker 1: stopped them from winning football games, and they've won three

299
00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:42,120
Speaker 1: in a row. So the overall numbers on offense, they're

300
00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:44,720
Speaker 1: not gonna blow you away. Twenty first in rushing, twenty

301
00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:48,160
Speaker 1: eighth in passing, thirty first in overall yards, and twenty

302
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:51,520
Speaker 1: fifth on third down. But where they win in how

303
00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:54,280
Speaker 1: they win, that's inside the red zone. They're number one

304
00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:57,200
Speaker 1: in the NFL and red zone efficiency. They are twelve

305
00:14:57,320 --> 00:15:00,600
Speaker 1: or thirteen and scoring touchdowns inside the twenty yard line,

306
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:05,360
Speaker 1: and they've converted their last eleven red zone trips into touchdowns.

307
00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:08,480
Speaker 1: So they're not an explosive team, but they don't miss

308
00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:11,280
Speaker 1: chances to score, and they also don't turn the football

309
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:14,120
Speaker 1: over and no turnovers in the last two games. They

310
00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:17,560
Speaker 1: only have six on the season. And Ryan Tannehill is

311
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:20,440
Speaker 1: doing what Ryan Tannehill does. He takes what the defense

312
00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:23,600
Speaker 1: gives him. He keeps the Titans on schedule, and his

313
00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:26,040
Speaker 1: one oh six point one passer rating in the last

314
00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:29,600
Speaker 1: three games ranks fourth in the NFL and that time,

315
00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:32,640
Speaker 1: and they always have Derrick Henry. He's back, he's turned

316
00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:35,760
Speaker 1: and back to back one hundred yard rushing games. He's

317
00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:38,280
Speaker 1: found the end zone in four straight games. He had

318
00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:40,760
Speaker 1: a great first half against the Colts a few weeks back.

319
00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:43,880
Speaker 1: He had ninety nine yards rushing before halftime at Lucas

320
00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:47,080
Speaker 1: Oil Stadium. So that's the gist for me. Rick, What

321
00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:49,280
Speaker 1: else am I missing him about the Titans on offense

322
00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:53,000
Speaker 1: going into this game? In terms of the musk number one,

323
00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:55,040
Speaker 1: You know, it doesn't take a genius on this one.

324
00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 1: You have to control Henry. He's gonna get yards, but

325
00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:02,200
Speaker 1: you gotta make him get his yards over high volume.

326
00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:04,720
Speaker 1: You know, you really don't want him at four to two,

327
00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:07,440
Speaker 1: you want at five two. You want him more three

328
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:11,120
Speaker 1: nine four oz. He and you know, he has deceptive speed,

329
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:13,720
Speaker 1: so you always have to set the edge. You know,

330
00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:17,000
Speaker 1: we saw him bounce one in the first game where

331
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:19,360
Speaker 1: the corner lost a leverage and he was able to

332
00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:22,000
Speaker 1: take it outside. We saw him a couple of years

333
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:24,880
Speaker 1: ago or last year run a toss crack to our

334
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:28,360
Speaker 1: right for a big play. So you have to really

335
00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:32,120
Speaker 1: set the edge and then penetrate with your defensive front.

336
00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:34,600
Speaker 1: You don't want to say stationary on the line. You

337
00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:36,880
Speaker 1: want to go get him and then define it for

338
00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:41,160
Speaker 1: your linebackers so your linebackers can go pin him, pursuit

339
00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:45,040
Speaker 1: and beat him up. You always want him going lateral.

340
00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:48,280
Speaker 1: You always want those shoulders running to the sidelines. You'd

341
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:51,360
Speaker 1: never want him to get downhill on you. You got

342
00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:54,960
Speaker 1: to punish him. Now. I think that Todd has done

343
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:57,720
Speaker 1: a really good job. We saw it in our game.

344
00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:00,720
Speaker 1: That's where it really started in trying to get him

345
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,080
Speaker 1: space with the screen game. You know, he ran that

346
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:05,720
Speaker 1: sway screen. They ended up calling it a run, but

347
00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:08,359
Speaker 1: it was really a sway screen for a big play

348
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:10,280
Speaker 1: against us, and then he ran a slow screen for

349
00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:13,480
Speaker 1: about fifteen and so kind of that's their way. He's

350
00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:15,919
Speaker 1: in the checkdown game, you know, but at the end

351
00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:19,239
Speaker 1: of the day, take away the big running game for him.

352
00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:22,639
Speaker 1: Don't let him get the big day. Number two, we

353
00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:26,520
Speaker 1: gotta take away Tannehills. I'll say this first, his wheels

354
00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:30,600
Speaker 1: and his ability to throw. That was play action passes,

355
00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,120
Speaker 1: and that's where if you could stifle the run, they

356
00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:36,880
Speaker 1: become less effective. That Tannehill is a really good athlete

357
00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:39,480
Speaker 1: and he'll test you on the boots. And one of

358
00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:42,560
Speaker 1: the reasons they're so good in the red zone is

359
00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:45,000
Speaker 1: he's a guy that can get down in there. And

360
00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:47,960
Speaker 1: you've seen it against us. He'll run a quarterback draw,

361
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:52,160
Speaker 1: he'll run he'll run the zone read, he'll run an option.

362
00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:55,000
Speaker 1: I mean, the guy is really good. In his career,

363
00:17:55,680 --> 00:18:00,200
Speaker 1: he has twenty five rushing touchdowns. Okay, so I mean this,

364
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:03,000
Speaker 1: this is a guy that can he adds a backup.

365
00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:06,400
Speaker 1: And I said this last week against Lawrence there are

366
00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:10,840
Speaker 1: some similarities in their athleticism. And I said this last week.

367
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:13,440
Speaker 1: When you're in the red zone, you've got to you've

368
00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:17,480
Speaker 1: got to you've got to consider Tannehill as another running back.

369
00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:20,280
Speaker 1: You have to account for him. You cannot, you know,

370
00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:23,639
Speaker 1: you cannot just treat him like a normal quarterback. And

371
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:27,560
Speaker 1: then again you really as you stop the run, you

372
00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:30,399
Speaker 1: really want to shut off that inside passing game. And

373
00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:32,280
Speaker 1: I think you got to play a little bit more

374
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:35,080
Speaker 1: man demand, which I don't mind. There's these guys are

375
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:38,840
Speaker 1: not blistering fast at all. I think the receiver corps

376
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:42,080
Speaker 1: is limited. I think you want to play some coverages

377
00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:45,359
Speaker 1: like six buzz where the week's safety comes down in

378
00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:48,040
Speaker 1: the hole. He actually has the hook, but he comes

379
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:50,320
Speaker 1: down from high so he can read that play action

380
00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:53,640
Speaker 1: on the way down. Second down. You want to get

381
00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:56,359
Speaker 1: in your four matchups and choke everything because they just

382
00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:58,760
Speaker 1: try to get back on you. And then I like

383
00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:02,600
Speaker 1: edge pressure and five man rush because the edge pressure

384
00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:05,520
Speaker 1: sets the edge on the running game and the bootleg

385
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:09,119
Speaker 1: game and gives you covers every lane in there. I

386
00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:11,399
Speaker 1: wouldn't mind him playing a little sync. They don't do

387
00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:13,920
Speaker 1: it by nature, but we know how tough that can

388
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:16,880
Speaker 1: be against his own running team. And then number three,

389
00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:19,400
Speaker 1: I think you know everybody's got to know just like

390
00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:22,560
Speaker 1: I've described these guys, is you've got you know if

391
00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:25,720
Speaker 1: in a critical situation you're going to direct your coverage,

392
00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:29,160
Speaker 1: technically you're going to direct it to Woods, So everybody

393
00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:32,240
Speaker 1: else like if it's Kenny Moore, he's really got to

394
00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,879
Speaker 1: study Phillips in the slot and know exactly how he

395
00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:38,160
Speaker 1: runs those quick stuff. We gotta know, you know, if

396
00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:41,560
Speaker 1: it's Westbrook out there, you know that he's gonna probably

397
00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:44,720
Speaker 1: go deep on you. Same thing gimmicks with the tight end.

398
00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:47,359
Speaker 1: Like we should have known that Agnew was gonna run

399
00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:50,439
Speaker 1: I reverse last week. I mean right off the bat

400
00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:53,160
Speaker 1: that was going to happen. And I think the point

401
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:55,520
Speaker 1: I'm making is on some of these other guys, we

402
00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:58,000
Speaker 1: have to we have to play a really good game

403
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:01,119
Speaker 1: one on one. Our second there in linebackers have to

404
00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:03,439
Speaker 1: do a really good job. And then number four, and

405
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:06,000
Speaker 1: I think this is everything is you got to seize

406
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:09,240
Speaker 1: the advantage and kill their offensive line. You know, we

407
00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:12,080
Speaker 1: gotta win one on ones across the board, whether it's

408
00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:15,720
Speaker 1: run or whether it's passed. I think their left side

409
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:19,280
Speaker 1: is horrendous when it comes to pass. Left left tackle

410
00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:24,199
Speaker 1: Daily is a sub left guard Brewer, And I'll say it,

411
00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:27,240
Speaker 1: You'll not see a worst pass blocking line than this.

412
00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:31,800
Speaker 1: And establishing that lead is so important, and then you

413
00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:35,360
Speaker 1: can force Tannehill into turnovers. He didn't have a turnover

414
00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:38,520
Speaker 1: in the first game. Because they played with that big lead.

415
00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:41,240
Speaker 1: They almost let him get away, but the big lead

416
00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:44,119
Speaker 1: allowed them to play super conservative for the rest of

417
00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:47,680
Speaker 1: the day. I'll also note one thing. Hilliard, who is

418
00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:50,520
Speaker 1: a very good player in space and a good third

419
00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:53,040
Speaker 1: down back in terms of the passing game, is a

420
00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:57,040
Speaker 1: below average pass blocker, So don't be afraid to bring

421
00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:59,560
Speaker 1: it on third down. So those are the four must

422
00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:03,640
Speaker 1: that I see again. You know, bottle up, Henry. Make

423
00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:07,200
Speaker 1: sure that we can play Tannehill between the numbers, take

424
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:09,800
Speaker 1: away the other guys one on one, and then get

425
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:13,119
Speaker 1: the advantage and get after This offensive line is this

426
00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:15,600
Speaker 1: is another one of those Baskin Robbins. Take a number,

427
00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:18,000
Speaker 1: offensive line, take a number on which guy you want

428
00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:22,439
Speaker 1: Rick Ventury on inside football, I'm Matt Taylor. That is

429
00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:26,000
Speaker 1: the Colts defense. To slow down the Tennessee offense. Let's

430
00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:28,479
Speaker 1: shift gears and roll out the blueprint to beat the

431
00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:31,480
Speaker 1: Titans on defense Tennessee. Rick has jumped all the way

432
00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 1: up to number five in the NFL and stop in

433
00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:37,399
Speaker 1: the run. They've allowed just eighty one rushing yards in

434
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:39,840
Speaker 1: the last two games, including just thirty eight to the

435
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:43,199
Speaker 1: Colts a few weeks back, which was the lowest total

436
00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:47,280
Speaker 1: the Titans have ever posted in a game against the Colts. However,

437
00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:51,200
Speaker 1: Tennessee dead last in the NFL and passing defense. They've

438
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:54,679
Speaker 1: allowed at least three hundred yards passing and four or

439
00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:57,640
Speaker 1: five games on the season, including a season nigh three

440
00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:01,280
Speaker 1: fifty nine to the Commanders last time out before the bye.

441
00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:03,840
Speaker 1: So trying to get better in that regard. But they're

442
00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:06,560
Speaker 1: pretty good on third down this season, ranking number two

443
00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:09,440
Speaker 1: in the NFL. They held the Commanders that just one

444
00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:12,360
Speaker 1: for eleven. And the biggest area of concern is how

445
00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:15,359
Speaker 1: to block Denico Autry, the former cult he wrecked the

446
00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:17,720
Speaker 1: first game at Lucas Oil. He had two sacks and

447
00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 1: a forced fumble a few weeks back. So what else

448
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:22,840
Speaker 1: stands out to you about the Titans on defense and

449
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:25,359
Speaker 1: your musts when the Colts have the ball? Rick, Yeah,

450
00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:27,960
Speaker 1: the run defense has really come on for him, and

451
00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:31,719
Speaker 1: it really should because they really have a really fine

452
00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:37,240
Speaker 1: front four. You know, Coal Coal is a really tough linebacker.

453
00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:39,960
Speaker 1: Long is a tough linebacker, you know, and when they

454
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:42,199
Speaker 1: bring Buyer down into the action, I mean, that's a

455
00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:46,000
Speaker 1: really good front seven. I mean I think that they're

456
00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:48,280
Speaker 1: stats and we talked about this they were a little

457
00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:51,800
Speaker 1: bit distorted by that Buffalo blowout. I think they're starting

458
00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:54,680
Speaker 1: to be real, and I mean, I think you always

459
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:56,720
Speaker 1: have to go by what they did against us, and

460
00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:59,280
Speaker 1: as you said that they held Jonathan two point one

461
00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:02,760
Speaker 1: and that made all the difference. This is a team

462
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:05,919
Speaker 1: that plays I think a hole is greater than the parts.

463
00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:10,760
Speaker 1: It plays situational football, and that's their salvation. They play

464
00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:13,600
Speaker 1: so much better when they're in the head of the account.

465
00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:16,760
Speaker 1: Look at the areas they're really good at, Like you said,

466
00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:20,800
Speaker 1: number two on third down and twenty seven percent against

467
00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:24,520
Speaker 1: that's terrific. But again they're ahead and account they got

468
00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:29,480
Speaker 1: you third and long boom, they got you fourteenth and sacks.

469
00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:32,280
Speaker 1: So it isn't great, but it's top half of the

470
00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:35,360
Speaker 1: league with two point six a game. And then they

471
00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:38,400
Speaker 1: end up they end up playing better pass coverage in

472
00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:43,359
Speaker 1: the red zone because again their limitations that really do

473
00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:47,080
Speaker 1: get limited in that there's no space to defend, and

474
00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:50,920
Speaker 1: I think their secondary plays better in tight quarters. So

475
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:53,159
Speaker 1: I mean, I think the thing about it is you

476
00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:56,160
Speaker 1: want to stay out of advantage. And you know, as

477
00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:58,359
Speaker 1: you said, this may be a game that's a little

478
00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:00,680
Speaker 1: bit similar to last week. I don't think two games

479
00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:04,720
Speaker 1: are necessarily the same, but you can't be stubborn against

480
00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:08,399
Speaker 1: this team, and they're very, very tough up front. I

481
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:11,080
Speaker 1: do think you can run it some and I'll get

482
00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:14,440
Speaker 1: into the I'll get into the musk. I think when

483
00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:17,000
Speaker 1: you do run it what you I think you're much

484
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:18,879
Speaker 1: better off. And I said this last week and I

485
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:23,399
Speaker 1: think it held up. Is you want to open the

486
00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:27,480
Speaker 1: formations against Tennessee to run against them, just like Jacksonville.

487
00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:30,760
Speaker 1: And that's where sometimes that no huddle comes in and

488
00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:34,359
Speaker 1: you keep them in one defense. But they tend to play,

489
00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:38,880
Speaker 1: especially on first and second down, they tend to play

490
00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:43,639
Speaker 1: very vanilla in their nickel defense. It's almost always over.

491
00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:46,840
Speaker 1: It's some kind of eight man front or cover four,

492
00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:50,679
Speaker 1: and so you can work the bubble and which also

493
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:54,800
Speaker 1: really works away from Simmons. I do kind of want

494
00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:58,359
Speaker 1: to work the bubble away from Simmons most of the time,

495
00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:01,240
Speaker 1: and I want to make my money there. But I

496
00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:04,080
Speaker 1: don't want to get in tight formations. It just seems

497
00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:06,760
Speaker 1: and this is true over the years. I don't know why,

498
00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:10,000
Speaker 1: but when teams try to run it in heavy formations,

499
00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:13,000
Speaker 1: it just seems like that you got all of Nashville

500
00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:15,239
Speaker 1: up in there, and they seem to be able to

501
00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:18,560
Speaker 1: really stop that. So I say open it up a

502
00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:20,840
Speaker 1: little bit. Make sure you open it up, don't be

503
00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:24,200
Speaker 1: afraid to get outside and get your toss crack going.

504
00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:28,240
Speaker 1: And then a little bit of misdirection on Coal now

505
00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:31,520
Speaker 1: number two, and this is important. Just like last week,

506
00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:35,359
Speaker 1: this might be a heavy throwing game. Okay, you got

507
00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:38,119
Speaker 1: to run a lot of play action where you freeze

508
00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:41,439
Speaker 1: their linebackers in that front seven. I'm going to make

509
00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:44,400
Speaker 1: a statement here. This team, when they play defense, they

510
00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:48,640
Speaker 1: survive on the rush, Matt, not on coverage. They are

511
00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:52,160
Speaker 1: not a good coverage team, whether it's man or zone.

512
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:54,600
Speaker 1: They have some issues. I'll get into their man issues,

513
00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:58,320
Speaker 1: but their zone issues is they run a lot of

514
00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:00,520
Speaker 1: blitz and drop stuff and a lot when that means

515
00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:03,720
Speaker 1: a lineman dropping a linebacker rush, which is good on

516
00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:07,440
Speaker 1: the blackboard, but when you're dropping lineman, your zones get

517
00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:10,440
Speaker 1: really distorted. And as good an athlete as Coal, and

518
00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:13,200
Speaker 1: long as they tend to get distorted, they tend to

519
00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:16,480
Speaker 1: get out of position, particularly with any kind of play fake,

520
00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:19,119
Speaker 1: because they go so hard to the run. So I

521
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:24,640
Speaker 1: really think you can attack them inside on play action crosses.

522
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:27,399
Speaker 1: You know, if you remember, our tight ends in that

523
00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:31,240
Speaker 1: last ballgame had eleven catches for one hundred and eighty

524
00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:34,440
Speaker 1: and two touchdowns. I mean we scorched them with our

525
00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:38,240
Speaker 1: tight ends on those intermediate areas. And then when you

526
00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:41,160
Speaker 1: want to take a shot, you want to get pierced.

527
00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:43,880
Speaker 1: You want to get pierced over there on Mitchell their

528
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:45,840
Speaker 1: third corners, so you really kind of want to get

529
00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:49,240
Speaker 1: them in nickel. And then thirty nine Mitchell comes into game,

530
00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:52,919
Speaker 1: maccreer goes to the nickel spot, and I think the

531
00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:56,680
Speaker 1: weakest link in the secondary is Mitchell, and I think

532
00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:59,800
Speaker 1: you have to work on him and take your shots outside.

533
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,439
Speaker 1: It's our Rick Vichery right there with Matt Taylor. This

534
00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:04,440
Speaker 1: is a point of Colt's Happy Hour on ninety three

535
00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:06,119
Speaker 1: five and one h seven five the Fan. We're at

536
00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:09,120
Speaker 1: Almporam and Castleton bud Light Blue Friday got two more

537
00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:12,960
Speaker 1: pair of commanders Colts tickets to give away black orchids

538
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:15,240
Speaker 1: on stage a little bit later on. If you guys

539
00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:17,000
Speaker 1: are coming out here, you can check it out. By

540
00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:21,160
Speaker 1: the way, Jonathan Taylor Nahim Hines looked to be good

541
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:24,000
Speaker 1: to go on Sunday We did find out earlier today

542
00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:28,359
Speaker 1: that Shaquille Leonard and Quitty pay will not play coming

543
00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:32,720
Speaker 1: up on Sunday. Chris in Tennessee. Now, Dion Jackson and

544
00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:34,119
Speaker 1: I'm going to talk to I talked to you earlier

545
00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:36,199
Speaker 1: this week and we're gonna replay that coming up in

546
00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:38,959
Speaker 1: a minute. Had really two nice games until that injury

547
00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:42,560
Speaker 1: against Jacksonville on Sunday. The job that he did, and

548
00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:46,800
Speaker 1: might there be a snapper two even with both Nahim,

549
00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:49,040
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think they're Taylor coming. I don't

550
00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:51,080
Speaker 1: think there'll be that many opportunities for him because you

551
00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:53,800
Speaker 1: have you have the run between the tackles guy, then

552
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:55,560
Speaker 1: you have the you know, coming out of the backfield,

553
00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:58,040
Speaker 1: maybe swinging the pass guy and Nahim, but he did

554
00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:00,320
Speaker 1: what he was supposed to do. You want your back

555
00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:01,960
Speaker 1: up to come in there and not drop off. He

556
00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:04,240
Speaker 1: put up some great numbers, found his way into the

557
00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:06,320
Speaker 1: end zone. And it's nice to have that card to

558
00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:08,119
Speaker 1: play maybe down the road when you're gonna need a

559
00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:11,399
Speaker 1: guy here or there, a guy gets dinged up, maybe

560
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:13,560
Speaker 1: just in the game, you can throw him out there

561
00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:15,479
Speaker 1: for a series. It's nice to know he can be

562
00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:18,359
Speaker 1: counted on it so Chris Hagan a Fox fifty nine JMV.

563

Speaker 1: he is good to go for Sunday. Chris Deon Jackson

581
00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:19,520
Speaker 1: played well, no doubt about it. Yeah, definitely proved himself worthy,

582
00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:22,320
Speaker 1: catching passes out of the backfield, finding the end zone,

583
00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:24,960
Speaker 1: running tough in between the tackles. And it's nice to

Speaker 1: know you have that on the roster because, as we know,

588
00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:37,720
Speaker 1: couple of games are running back Deon Jackson. Here's our

589
00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:40,480
Speaker 1: conversation from a couple of days ago. You have seen

590
00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:43,080
Speaker 1: him play running back to past couple of Colts games

591
00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:46,880
Speaker 1: and play really well. Let's introduce everybody and find out

592
00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:50,560
Speaker 1: a little bit more about Colts running back Dion Jackson,

593
00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:53,880
Speaker 1: who joins us again via the Andy Moore Automotive Group potline. Dion,

594
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:56,760
Speaker 1: thank you for the time. How you doing Hey, no problem, man,

595
00:29:56,840 --> 00:30:00,480
Speaker 1: I'm doing good. How are you fantastic and fantastic done

596
00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:02,440
Speaker 1: the last two weeks? How do you feel coming off

597
00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:05,320
Speaker 1: that Thursday game and that extended week when you played

598
00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:08,120
Speaker 1: this past Sunday? Did you feel feel pretty good starting

599
00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:11,640
Speaker 1: the game? Um? Yeah, actually I felt really good. Um

600
00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:13,720
Speaker 1: that time, that time off that we had from the

601
00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:16,520
Speaker 1: Thursday game. Real it really helped out a lot. Um.

602
00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:19,360
Speaker 1: I had a lot of time to, um, just take

603
00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:21,840
Speaker 1: care of my body, you know, get some some prehab

604
00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:24,640
Speaker 1: things kind of worked out and everything like that. So

605
00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:26,600
Speaker 1: I mean that was good for me. Um. You know,

606
00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:28,560
Speaker 1: it had been a while since I played with fifty

607
00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:30,600
Speaker 1: or whatever snaps. It's been a couple of years, so

608
00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:35,240
Speaker 1: I kind of I kind of felt those plays. But yeah,

609
00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:38,360
Speaker 1: going into a last game, I felt really good. Now,

610
00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:40,960
Speaker 1: it was different in Denverse, certainly on that Thursday night

611
00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:42,280
Speaker 1: for you. And we can't get back to that in

612
00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:44,800
Speaker 1: a second, but how did you feel, because not only

613
00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:48,280
Speaker 1: you're talking about not playing that level of significant snaps

614
00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:51,560
Speaker 1: in a while, but you were playing this this past

615
00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:54,480
Speaker 1: Sunday against Jacksonville here at Lucas Oil Stadium in the

616
00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:57,840
Speaker 1: no huddle? How did that do? It? Was? Was? It?

617
00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:00,640
Speaker 1: Was it somewhat exhausting? Because I know Michael Pittman, your teammate,

618
00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:03,400
Speaker 1: mentioned how exhausted he was after the game. How different

619
00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:06,760
Speaker 1: is that than what you experienced in that Denver game. Um, Yeah,

620
00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:11,560
Speaker 1: for sure, that was definitely a different switch up something.

621
00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:13,479
Speaker 1: I mean, it's kind of something that I did a

622
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:16,880
Speaker 1: little bit in college, but that was early on, Like

623
00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:19,760
Speaker 1: my sophomore year had been a while, so I mean

624
00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:24,400
Speaker 1: making that switch from the Denver game to Jacksonville, going

625
00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:27,360
Speaker 1: to huddle, Um, it was definitely kind of stream with

626
00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:31,080
Speaker 1: in practice. That was that was something that was big

627
00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:33,000
Speaker 1: for us, going to huddle and practice and everything like that,

628
00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:34,800
Speaker 1: trying to get used to it. So, I mean going

629
00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:38,560
Speaker 1: into the game, definitely a different beast. M definitely exhausting. No,

630
00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:41,240
Speaker 1: Pitt played more plays than me, but I still felt

631
00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:44,560
Speaker 1: it though. Did you know over the week during practice,

632
00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:47,160
Speaker 1: because you your head coach Frank Rock had mentioned they

633
00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:49,240
Speaker 1: you guys were all in on that earlier in the

634
00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:51,840
Speaker 1: week and leading up to that Jacksonville game. Could you

635
00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:55,880
Speaker 1: see it all cohesion wise, Dion coming together as you

636
00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:59,400
Speaker 1: went along during the week of practice last week. Um, yeah,

637
00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:02,680
Speaker 1: for sure. Um, you know, were going in we kind

638
00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:04,520
Speaker 1: of we kind of knew we're gonna start the week

639
00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:07,880
Speaker 1: off with that. Um. I mean I just feel like

640
00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:10,480
Speaker 1: as as time went along, I mean, as practice went along,

641
00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:12,400
Speaker 1: we kind of we got used to it and we

642
00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:14,280
Speaker 1: got used to the operation and everything like that, and

643
00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:16,200
Speaker 1: it started to work out pretty smooth. Um, So we

644
00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:17,760
Speaker 1: knew it was definitely gonna be something that we can

645
00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:20,320
Speaker 1: use in the game, and so like it worked our advantage.

646
00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:23,480
Speaker 1: Dean Jackson of the Colts joining us via the Andy

647
00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:28,800
Speaker 1: Moore Automotive Group potline. When you've got that really significant

648
00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:31,760
Speaker 1: first playing time in that Denver game, did it take

649
00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:34,200
Speaker 1: you a minute to dial yourself down or were you

650
00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:37,040
Speaker 1: kind of running off those those extra juices you got

651
00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:39,680
Speaker 1: by being in that position? Um, I feel like I

652
00:32:39,760 --> 00:32:42,160
Speaker 1: was just running off of those extra juices. I don't

653
00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:45,400
Speaker 1: think I really had too much time, you know, trying

654
00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:47,840
Speaker 1: to calm myself down, to down myself down to anything

655
00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:51,680
Speaker 1: like that. Like, um, you know, the Heamsham's injury kind

656
00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:54,560
Speaker 1: of happened sporadically, like it happened out of nowhere, so

657
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:56,600
Speaker 1: kind of was just thrust into it and I don't

658
00:32:56,600 --> 00:32:59,440
Speaker 1: really have a chance to, you know, process anything anything

659
00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:00,800
Speaker 1: like that. Was just kind of in the fire and

660
00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:02,600
Speaker 1: I just had to I just had to get out

661
00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:04,320
Speaker 1: there and go. Was it kind of an old crap

662
00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:06,480
Speaker 1: moment for you old crap here I am? Or was

663
00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:10,239
Speaker 1: it like this this is what I have practice, this

664
00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:13,040
Speaker 1: is what I played for, this is this is my moment.

665
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:15,000
Speaker 1: How do you feel when you first knew that you

666
00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:17,520
Speaker 1: were up and here you go. Um, I say a

667
00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:20,840
Speaker 1: mix of both. Yeah, I would definitely say a mix

668
00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:23,200
Speaker 1: of both. Um. When it happened, I definitely was like,

669
00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:25,719
Speaker 1: oh crap. But then I like I knew, I knew one.

670
00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:27,400
Speaker 1: Like when I ran in there, I knew I was ready.

671
00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:29,080
Speaker 1: I knew I was I was ready to get the

672
00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:33,320
Speaker 1: job done. Whatever was asking me, it's jackson he is

673
00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:36,080
Speaker 1: with us, So I'm assuming. How how did you feel

674
00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:38,239
Speaker 1: from the Denver game to the Jacksonville game, even with

675
00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:40,960
Speaker 1: you know, the experience of practicing for that no huddle,

676
00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:43,520
Speaker 1: which was completely different. Did you feel like you had

677
00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:46,240
Speaker 1: just a different level of confidence than you had when

678
00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:48,040
Speaker 1: you were on the spot and had to enter the

679
00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:50,760
Speaker 1: game as you did on that Thursday night in Denver. Definitely,

680
00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:53,680
Speaker 1: for sure. I definitely feel like I went into the

681
00:33:53,760 --> 00:33:57,640
Speaker 1: Jacksonville game with a lot more confidence, um, just based

682
00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:01,560
Speaker 1: off of the game before. Um, yeah, I mean going

683
00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:04,040
Speaker 1: to I was definitely confident for the Jacksonville game. I

684
00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:07,240
Speaker 1: didn't really I wasn't really nervous or anything like that. Um,

685
00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:09,160
Speaker 1: I mean I had some emotions and stuff like that,

686
00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:11,600
Speaker 1: just because it was my first start but as far

687
00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:13,400
Speaker 1: as going out there and execute, and I didn't have

688
00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:15,360
Speaker 1: any worries or anything like that. All right, when you

689
00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:18,920
Speaker 1: scored that touchdown on Sunday, Is that with that spike

690
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:22,799
Speaker 1: what you had in mind? Or was that just kind

691
00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:25,840
Speaker 1: of living in the moment there? Nah, I am not

692
00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:27,720
Speaker 1: gonna lie. I kind of I kind of told myself

693
00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:29,560
Speaker 1: to night before. I was like, if I running somebody

694
00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:32,720
Speaker 1: over for you and I score, so I'm gonna spike

695
00:34:32,840 --> 00:34:35,000
Speaker 1: the ball as hard as I can. Who was that

696
00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:37,080
Speaker 1: you ran over? By the way right there? You kind

697
00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:40,840
Speaker 1: of tattooed somebody there tried to to block your path.

698
00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:44,520
Speaker 1: How many times if you watched that run literally probably

699
00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:48,200
Speaker 1: at least one hundred. I love it literally, Probably a

700
00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:50,440
Speaker 1: hun that should be playing on like a loop on

701
00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:55,880
Speaker 1: a TV when you walk in your place, honestly, because

702
00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:58,359
Speaker 1: I mean it was it seemed like as well, those

703
00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:01,520
Speaker 1: moments in the NFL, which I'm sure happens often, it's

704
00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:03,920
Speaker 1: either you or me, and it's gonna be me in

705
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:05,880
Speaker 1: this hole as we meet right here right. That was

706
00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:08,160
Speaker 1: definitely my mom said. That was definitely how I was thinking.

707
00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:10,479
Speaker 1: I said, we're gonna meet each other out the goal line.

708
00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:12,560
Speaker 1: I said, either you're going in and I'm going in.

00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:17,200
Speaker 1: I said, I like myself. The Angry Run Scepter Award

772
00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:32,080
Speaker 1: song with playing right here on Coults Happy Hour. It's

773
00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:35,960
Speaker 1: a famous line from Chips. Is it Stone Temple Pilots?

774
00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:40,400
Speaker 1: It is not? Is it? Uh? Eric Astrata? It is

775
00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:46,240
Speaker 1: not seven Mary because Eric Astrata and Larry Wilcox seven

776
00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:50,080
Speaker 1: Mary three and four? Did you know that Chris Chris

777
00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:54,279
Speaker 1: Pine's dad was the sergeant of the sergeant you know

778
00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:58,920
Speaker 1: his name? What a nurse? Joseph Catrere is? Who that was?

779
00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:06,600
Speaker 1: Robert Pond m Matt Taylor quick one right here, conversation

780
00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:08,920
Speaker 1: with somebody. I like a great deal that you know that?

781
00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:12,279
Speaker 1: And when he has a really good game normally that

782
00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:14,960
Speaker 1: means really good things for this Colts team wide receiver

783
00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:19,000
Speaker 1: Michael Pittman, junior. Matt. First of all, Michael, congratulations on

784
00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:21,520
Speaker 1: a career high game the other day against the Jaguars.

785
00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:24,000
Speaker 1: Obviously the passing game was the focus of the offense.

786
00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:25,919
Speaker 1: But did you feel it could be a big game

787
00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:28,839
Speaker 1: for you? Yeah? I mean every game, like I go

788
00:39:28,880 --> 00:39:31,560
Speaker 1: in and I'm expecting to have a big game, um,

789
00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:34,600
Speaker 1: and it just happened to be the way that it happened,

790
00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:39,359
Speaker 1: you know, thirteen catches for however many yards. So it

791
00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:42,279
Speaker 1: was a great like team win and happy that I

792
00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:44,359
Speaker 1: could be like a part of it. I mean Matt Ryan,

793
00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:46,880
Speaker 1: certainly he was in the zone. I mean oftentimes in

794
00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:49,040
Speaker 1: his career he's been in the zone. But fifty eight

795
00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:52,200
Speaker 1: passes forty two completions. Did you just see a little

796
00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:54,719
Speaker 1: bit extra out of Matt Ryan in terms of accuracy

797
00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:59,040
Speaker 1: and pinpointing the football against Jacksonville? I mean, I think

798
00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:02,480
Speaker 1: that that is just Matt and he just got an

799
00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:05,920
Speaker 1: opportunity to throw it fifty Sometimes. I think that he

800
00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:07,520
Speaker 1: could go out there and he could do it again

801
00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:11,000
Speaker 1: and week after week. Now, obviously we probably don't want

802
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:12,480
Speaker 1: to throw the ball like that many times. I mean,

803
00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:14,520
Speaker 1: that's like a lot of a lot of throws, like

804
00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:18,000
Speaker 1: for him and for any QB. So some games we're

805
00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:19,399
Speaker 1: gonna have to go in and throw it to win,

806
00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:21,120
Speaker 1: and some games we're gonna have to run it to win.

807
00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:22,560
Speaker 1: And we had to throw it to win last game.

808
00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:25,960
Speaker 1: What did that game do for the offense's confidence? I mean,

809
00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:28,839
Speaker 1: shut out against a team in week two and then

810
00:40:28,840 --> 00:40:31,360
Speaker 1: to come back a month later and put up thirty

811
00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:33,879
Speaker 1: four points, a season high thirty four points. What did

812
00:40:33,880 --> 00:40:37,000
Speaker 1: that do for the confidence in the momentum of the offense. Absolutely?

813
00:40:37,040 --> 00:40:40,880
Speaker 1: I mean it's just good that we could show that

814
00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:44,920
Speaker 1: we could win games too, because defense has been playing

815
00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:48,160
Speaker 1: lights out and we've really been like leaning on them

816
00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:51,439
Speaker 1: and it's nice that they could lean on us last

817
00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:53,560
Speaker 1: game and show them, hey, like we're here too. You

818
00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:55,359
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like we're like here to help too.

819
00:40:55,480 --> 00:40:58,279
Speaker 1: It's Michael Pittman junior with us. What's the atmosphere of

820
00:40:58,320 --> 00:41:00,960
Speaker 1: the team this week coming off that when we know

821
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:04,320
Speaker 1: about what Jacksonville did to the Colts the previous two games?

822
00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:07,319
Speaker 1: Is the atmosphere a little bit looser, a little bit

823
00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:09,160
Speaker 1: more lightning? You got a little bit of a monkey

824
00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:12,080
Speaker 1: off your back. You did do some things well against Jacksonville.

825
00:41:12,200 --> 00:41:14,759
Speaker 1: I mean, like, I wouldn't say say that because we're

826
00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:18,080
Speaker 1: still not where we want to be. We're not where

827
00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:20,839
Speaker 1: we thought we'd be. So we're we're really going in

828
00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:24,560
Speaker 1: with a one to know mindset and we're just focused

829
00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:27,239
Speaker 1: on this like next game, and we're not really thinking

830
00:41:27,239 --> 00:41:29,919
Speaker 1: about last game because last game doesn't really matter. Now,

831
00:41:30,080 --> 00:41:33,360
Speaker 1: going back to the offensive approach again, the thirteen catches

832
00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:36,359
Speaker 1: for you, the fifty eight attempts for Matt Ryan that

833
00:41:36,440 --> 00:41:39,040
Speaker 1: was up tempo, that was up pace. How much how

834
00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:40,960
Speaker 1: taxing is that on you throughout the course of a

835
00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:43,600
Speaker 1: game when you're going that fast. Yeah, I mean it's

836
00:41:43,600 --> 00:41:47,000
Speaker 1: definitely taxing, like on us, but it's more taxing on

837
00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:51,839
Speaker 1: the defense, who isn't used to running that tempo, who

838
00:41:51,920 --> 00:41:55,959
Speaker 1: isn't used to playing eighty something snaps or however many

839
00:41:55,960 --> 00:41:59,680
Speaker 1: snaps like there was, So it definitely works in our favor.

840
00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:03,920
Speaker 1: Matt Ryan's got the three fourth quarter game winning drives

841
00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:07,359
Speaker 1: this season already. We always hear about Mattie Ice, right,

842
00:42:07,400 --> 00:42:10,080
Speaker 1: it's alive and well, but you see it every day.

843
00:42:10,080 --> 00:42:12,880
Speaker 1: What does that mean? What is he like in the

844
00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:15,680
Speaker 1: huddle on the field in the fourth quarter when the

845
00:42:15,719 --> 00:42:18,560
Speaker 1: game's on the line. I mean, he just never panics. Man.

846
00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:22,640
Speaker 1: It's just like he's just always stone cold, just ready

847
00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:27,120
Speaker 1: to win. The ultimate competitor. Like I've never seen him flustered.

848
00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:29,160
Speaker 1: I've never seen him panic, you know what I'm saying.

849
00:42:29,160 --> 00:42:32,279
Speaker 1: Like he just is all about his work and and

850
00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:35,160
Speaker 1: goes to work like when we need it the most.

851
00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:37,399
Speaker 1: You know, one of your favorite guys on this team,

852
00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:40,440
Speaker 1: No doubt it's Alec Pierce. You know, Matt Ryan and

853
00:42:40,520 --> 00:42:43,440
Speaker 1: Alec Pierce. What is it about Alec that makes him

854
00:42:43,480 --> 00:42:46,560
Speaker 1: seem like a five year guy instead of a five

855
00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:49,880
Speaker 1: game guy. Yeah, I mean I think that it is

856
00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:53,320
Speaker 1: the way that he works and resilient, Like he doesn't

857
00:42:53,440 --> 00:42:56,120
Speaker 1: let things get him down because like you know how

858
00:42:56,160 --> 00:42:59,480
Speaker 1: some like young players like like have a bad route

859
00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:01,360
Speaker 1: or have a bad rap and they kind of like

860
00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:04,640
Speaker 1: get down. I mean, he's just like next play, next play,

861
00:43:04,719 --> 00:43:06,680
Speaker 1: next play, like whether it's a good play or bad play, Like,

862
00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:09,919
Speaker 1: he's like next play. And I think that's what really

863
00:43:09,920 --> 00:43:14,239
Speaker 1: helps him perform, like in those big time plays in

864
00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:16,440
Speaker 1: those moments like last game, we've seen him catch like

865
00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:19,040
Speaker 1: a game winning touchdown. So I mean, like if he

866
00:43:19,080 --> 00:43:21,840
Speaker 1: can keep that up like which like I think that

867
00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:23,640
Speaker 1: he will. I mean, like we're gonna be looking pretty

868
00:43:23,640 --> 00:43:26,400
Speaker 1: good here for the next couple of years. And how

869
00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:30,440
Speaker 1: much has Reggie Wayne accelerated his growth? Absolutely? I mean

870
00:43:30,480 --> 00:43:34,080
Speaker 1: reg just knows everything about like he's just played at

871
00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:36,439
Speaker 1: all and he played for fourteen years, and he knows

872
00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:40,000
Speaker 1: everything about being like an outside guy, and and he

873
00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:43,279
Speaker 1: just gives us insight that you can't get from other

874
00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:46,319
Speaker 1: coaches because they didn't play the game or they didn't

875
00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:49,359
Speaker 1: play the game to his level. So like we get

876
00:43:49,400 --> 00:43:51,040
Speaker 1: a ton of insight from him, and like he's a

877
00:43:51,040 --> 00:43:53,279
Speaker 1: great coach. I have you. It's it's great for this

878
00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:57,040
Speaker 1: offense to get thirteen catches from yourself for ten catches

879
00:43:57,080 --> 00:44:01,359
Speaker 1: from Dion Jackson. But this offense is on about one guy.

880
00:44:01,400 --> 00:44:04,399
Speaker 1: I mean, at least seven different players in every game

881
00:44:04,440 --> 00:44:07,240
Speaker 1: for the Colts have caught a pass. How much pressure

882
00:44:07,239 --> 00:44:09,239
Speaker 1: does that put on the defense? How tough is that

883
00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:12,239
Speaker 1: on the defense when when the Colts are clicking, a

884
00:44:12,239 --> 00:44:14,960
Speaker 1: lot of guys are getting involved. Absolutely, I mean because

885
00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:18,919
Speaker 1: if you key in, like on somebody, then everybody else

886
00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:22,280
Speaker 1: is gonna just just eat. So so that basically works

887
00:44:22,320 --> 00:44:24,560
Speaker 1: to our benefit because you can key on on one guy,

888
00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:27,000
Speaker 1: you keying on two guys, and then there's a bunch

889
00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:28,719
Speaker 1: of other guys out there who are gonna make those

890
00:44:28,760 --> 00:44:31,360
Speaker 1: big plays. So so it makes it really hard like

891
00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:35,000
Speaker 1: on defenses is because they can't cover the whole field. There,

892
00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:39,120
Speaker 1: it is right there, Michael Pittman Junior Matt Taylor. It

893
00:44:39,200 --> 00:44:42,399

908
00:45:21,880 --> 00:45:27,040
Speaker 1: final time. Curious Hagan thoughts on Sunday, give yourself some

909
00:45:27,120 --> 00:45:28,960
Speaker 1: love on a little pregame show. I'm sure you guys are.

910
00:45:29,120 --> 00:45:31,719
Speaker 1: We're gonna have the Blue Zone pregame show eleven thirty

911
00:45:31,760 --> 00:45:35,480
Speaker 1: CBS four. We'll find out which coult the other Colts

912
00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:38,040
Speaker 1: would not like to box. That's our big question, and

913
00:45:38,120 --> 00:45:40,200
Speaker 1: I think the big question Sundays. Can the Colts try

914
00:45:40,200 --> 00:45:42,759
Speaker 1: to regain control of this AFC South. It's been through

915
00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:45,600
Speaker 1: their fingers since twenty fourteen. If you want to win

916
00:45:45,640 --> 00:45:47,480
Speaker 1: the division, you have to win Sunday. It's going to

917
00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:49,880
Speaker 1: be a close game. I hate to say it. I

918
00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:51,480
Speaker 1: think the Titans are gonna win. I'd love to be

919
00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:55,080
Speaker 1: proven wrong. The analytics bear out right now that if

920
00:45:55,120 --> 00:45:58,839
Speaker 1: the Colts win, fifty chance of winning the division. If

921
00:45:58,840 --> 00:46:02,279
Speaker 1: they lose, those chances so I mean that, and the

922
00:46:02,320 --> 00:46:04,960
Speaker 1: fact that the most of the AFC South schedules already

923
00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:07,640
Speaker 1: in the books, I mean it really does prioritize this

924
00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:10,000
Speaker 1: game without question. You're guaranteed of losing record in the

925
00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:12,520
Speaker 1: division if you don't win on Sunday. And it's a

926
00:46:12,520 --> 00:46:14,879
Speaker 1: long road to hoe when you think about quickest way

927
00:46:14,880 --> 00:46:17,120
Speaker 1: to the playoffs. When your division, you get at least

928
00:46:17,120 --> 00:46:19,200
Speaker 1: one home playoff game, and that's what you gotta have

929
00:46:19,200 --> 00:46:20,879
Speaker 1: an eye for. Only a third of the way through

930
00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:22,880
Speaker 1: the season. But like you said, almost completely done with

931
00:46:23,120 --> 00:46:25,160
Speaker 1: division games. You gotta take care of business on Sunday,

932
00:46:25,280 --> 00:46:27,960
Speaker 1: no question about that, all right. Coming up, speaking of that,

933
00:46:28,120 --> 00:46:30,759
Speaker 1: you got game two on the season with the Pacers

934
00:46:31,000 --> 00:46:33,840
Speaker 1: and the Spurs. Your pregame show beginning with Pat Boylan

935
00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:37,000
Speaker 1: is coming straight at you right here at the bottom

936
00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:39,560
Speaker 1: of the hour. And then you got San Antonio and

937
00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:42,600
Speaker 1: the Pacers coming up at seven o'clock for you, jav

938
00:46:42,719 --> 00:46:44,960

Speaker 1: in studio. That is going to be from six until midnight.
