00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:02,600
Speaker 5: You got the daily mile in just before the storm.

23
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:04,720
Speaker 3: I did. We were yeah, Yeah, that was true rock

24
00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:05,080
Speaker 3: and roll.

25
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:09,080
Speaker 2: Yes, because we got back from the family property and

26
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:12,400
Speaker 2: got settled in and unloaded the car, and I took

27
00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:16,200
Speaker 2: off for a brisk little daily mile pre rain storm.

28
00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:18,560
Speaker 2: And then yeah, I went to sleep and then woke

29
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:20,920
Speaker 2: up and Dan said they lifted the blackout, so we're

30
00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 2: like we can actually watch that.

31
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:23,520
Speaker 1: That was the best news out of everything.

32
00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:25,639
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I was like, I should take more naps.

Speaker 1: Yeah, And I saw ratings were up. Ratings were up.

34
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:31,720
Speaker 4: Obviously that help with the Indianapolis area, you know, drawing

35
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 4: up the ratings. Maybe an idea to maybe push that

87
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,720
Speaker 5: losing their minds over how good of a race it was.

88
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:22,119
Speaker 5: It's so cool to see folks who aren't from here

Speaker 1: What a weekend. Obviously, you know, the Pacers were in

00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:43,480
Speaker 1: some tough, tough games. You know some the Pacers.

98

Speaker 4: She'll be up three to one right now in this series,

99
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 4: but that's not how the things went in the last

100
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 4: you know, couple of games. In terms of crunch time,

101
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:52,240
Speaker 4: Pacers were up eight with six minutes to go in

102
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:54,840
Speaker 4: the fourth quarter ended up getting out scored by eleven,

103
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 4: losing by three. Their season is over. But tip of

104
00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:59,400
Speaker 4: the cap to the Pacers man, we're right there with you.

Speaker 4: fifty win season in the regular season next year.

107
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:07,200
Speaker 5: Another thing that players have like, yeah, full on supported,

108
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,760
Speaker 5: he adopted old players are all in on the Pacers.

109
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 4: Absolutely, all right, we're all in talking about OTAs. Anthony

110
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 4: Richardson was on the field doing eleven on eleven work

111
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:19,760
Speaker 4: for the first time since last October since his shoulder surgery.

112
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 1: So we're gonna talk about that.

113
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:24,040
Speaker 4: We're gonna hear some Anthony Richardson sound and talk about

114
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:26,800
Speaker 4: our big picture takeaways from the first week of OTAs

115
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:29,839
Speaker 4: as those continue this week and then next week the

116
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:31,279
Speaker 4: offseason workout program.

117
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:34,760
Speaker 1: It ends with the rookie Mini camp. I believe June fourth.

118
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,200
Speaker 4: Through the sixth's that's what I've meant to say, Yes,

119
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:38,640
Speaker 4: Freudian slip right there.

120
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,040
Speaker 1: It is. It is Tuesday, following Memorial Day. So we're

121
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:42,320

00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,279
Speaker 5: have our big content shoot where we get all this stuff.

125
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:50,960

Speaker 1: Crazy.

128
00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 5: I didn't even charge my laptop, like, I just got

129
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:55,040
Speaker 5: a sheet of paper.

130
00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:55,200
Speaker 6: Here.

131
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:56,039
Speaker 5: That's where we're at.

132
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:57,880
Speaker 3: Here you go, you're on the Jeffrey Gorman program.

133
00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,320
Speaker 5: Right, Actually I needed my readers on too.

134
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:00,920
Speaker 1: There you go.

135
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:04,160
Speaker 4: All right, el O, your first impressions of Anthony Richardson.

136
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:07,000
Speaker 4: He was out there. I've got my thoughts, but I'll

137
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 4: tee it up for you in terms of what you

138
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 4: saw from ar for the first time since last fall.

139
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 2: I mean, it's no restrictions, right, It's he's able to

140
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 2: push the ball down field. There's you know, no kind

141
00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:19,160
Speaker 2: of it's not between the guardrails on oh we got

142
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 2: to keep him, you know, between here and here.

143
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 3: I mean, it's all systems go.

144
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:24,800
Speaker 2: That was one of, you know, the really good things

145
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:27,160
Speaker 2: that we've been able to see so far. You've been

146
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:32,719
Speaker 2: able to see to just that comfortability increase with the guys,

147
00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 2: you know, on days when maybe things haven't been super sharp,

148
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:39,200
Speaker 2: they've recovered and had a really crisp day to follow.

149
00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:41,320
Speaker 3: And that's one thing I always like to see this

150
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:41,880
Speaker 3: time of year.

151
00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:45,200
Speaker 2: You don't expect every single practice to be perfect, right,

152
00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:47,240
Speaker 2: you want it to be, you know, pretty sharp and

153
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:49,320
Speaker 2: quick paced and all of that.

154
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:50,440
Speaker 3: But I always like.

155
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:53,840
Speaker 2: To see is maybe when you know things aren't perfect

156
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 2: to script, how does the next play go or how

157
00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,000
Speaker 2: does the next day go from that? And I thought, overall,

158
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:02,400
Speaker 2: Anthony with his command of the offense and connecting with

159
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:04,800
Speaker 2: his pass catchers, has been really, really good, and it's

160
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 2: been a really steady ramp up over what we've seen

161
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:08,600
Speaker 2: in the last few weeks.

162
00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:10,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, I just thought he looked he looked relaxed, He

163
00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:14,359
Speaker 5: looked comfortable from what I could tell, you know, he didn't.

164
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:18,080
Speaker 5: Nothing looked really sloppy. There weren't a ton of balls

165
00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 5: on the ground. You know, maybe there are some throws

166
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:22,480
Speaker 5: that he would have said, oh, I'd like to have

167
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:25,799
Speaker 5: that one back, but like it's may you're installing this stuff.

168
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:30,719
Speaker 5: It's not meant to be competitive yet. But you know,

169
00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:32,840
Speaker 5: then again, like there are some throws where you're like, oh,

170
00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:35,000
Speaker 5: there he is. He had this one to Kylon grantson

171
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:38,159
Speaker 5: down the sideline right that Shane Stike and talked about

172
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 5: of like, yeah, those are kind of plays that we need,

173
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,440
Speaker 5: Like it just you know, just a deep ball on

174
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:45,719
Speaker 5: a scrambled drill, like the kind of plays that remind you, hey,

175
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:47,960
Speaker 5: this guy, this guy's otherworldly talented.

176
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:50,279
Speaker 4: Yeah, and to me, the biggest takeaway for me was

177
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:52,080
Speaker 4: he didn't look like you guys have both said it

178
00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:54,400
Speaker 4: didn't look like a guy coming off shoulders or no

179
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:58,479
Speaker 4: restrictions can make all the throw velocity was there? What

180
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:00,880
Speaker 4: kind of gauge did you get because a hot button

181
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:04,680
Speaker 4: issue this offseason, considering what happened last year, what kind

182
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:08,920
Speaker 4: of gauge did you get, either physically or people talking

183
00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:12,400
Speaker 4: about it, whether that be Shane Stikeen or Anthony Richardson himself,

184
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:16,000
Speaker 4: of changing the mindset JJ of how he's going to

185
00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 4: approach the game, you know, quarters one through three or

186
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 4: the fourth quarter based on time and situation of the game.

187
00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 5: I think he's been pretty consistent, and Shane Stikeen has

188
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 5: also been pretty consistent since the injury, saying we don't

189
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:33,440
Speaker 5: want to alter how he plays. We don't want to

190
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:37,480
Speaker 5: tell him you can't do this. Anthony himself has then

191
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 5: taken that and also said I probably need to be smarter.

192
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:42,800
Speaker 5: I need to know the situation kind of like you mentioned, Hey,

193
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:46,160
Speaker 5: it's a second quarter and it's a second and ten,

194
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 5: kind of like the play got injured on last year,

195
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:51,000
Speaker 5: You don't, you know, just go down. You don't need

196
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,000
Speaker 5: to fight for those extra yards. Now, I say that

197
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 5: that's kind of what he did on the play where

198
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:56,880
Speaker 5: he got hurt, right, was he he wasn't really fighting

199
00:07:56,880 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 5: for extra yards he went down, But just the sort

200
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:02,840
Speaker 5: of like be a little bit smarter with some of

201
00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:05,560
Speaker 5: these decisions. You know, Anthony's talked a lot about the

202
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 5: concussion in Houston and how he slowed up on that

203
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 5: play and how he knows he can't do that. But

204
00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:15,760
Speaker 5: I don't think this is a situation where he's playing stupid.

205
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,640
Speaker 5: It's not a situation where he's playing reckless. It's just

206
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:23,680
Speaker 5: you are the franchise quarterback. You do need to be

207
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:28,720
Speaker 5: just scoch more aware of the situation, which is something

208
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:29,560
Speaker 5: that he is acknowledged.

209
00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:30,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, And that's the thing, Lara.

210
00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:34,480
Speaker 4: The fact that they're talking about it means that everyone knows.

211
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:37,600
Speaker 4: And this is not Anthony Richardson either saying it or

212
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 4: thinking it, but.

213
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 1: It's just the reality. We've talked about this.

214
00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:44,080
Speaker 4: This team is gonna go by and large, how far

215
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:48,079
Speaker 4: Anthony Richardson can take them, and they have built this

216
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 4: team in the off season with the idea in mind,

217
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:55,320
Speaker 4: or the assumption in mind that Anthony Richardson is gonna

218
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 4: be special, and I think that he will. But saying

219
00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 4: that he's got to be available and them talking about

220
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:06,439
Speaker 4: this is everyone self consciously admitting that, hey, we got

221
00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:08,160
Speaker 4: to be smart here. We got to be smart in

222
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:11,120
Speaker 4: terms of how he runs with the football. But also

223
00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:13,840
Speaker 4: if you're Shane Styke and Jim Bob Cooter, it's when

224
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:16,400
Speaker 4: we decide to keep the football in his hands.

225
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 2: And I think that you can talk about it and

226
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:21,040
Speaker 2: have all the conversations and watch the film and say, Okay,

227
00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:23,320
Speaker 2: what would you do in you know, this given situation,

228
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:26,959
Speaker 2: But it all comes down to when it happens live

229
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:30,880
Speaker 2: on field, are you able to Because the thing is, he's.

230
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,440
Speaker 3: So giddy process well, and he's just so gifted.

231
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:37,200
Speaker 2: He's been able to rely upon that incredible athleticism in

232
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:41,679
Speaker 2: so many situations. Just his getting more comfortable switching that

233
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,520
Speaker 2: in a different way. So I think that it's a

234
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:46,280
Speaker 2: great thing to do. Right now, We're not really gonna

235
00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:49,400
Speaker 2: know until we get into that early part of the

236
00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:53,040
Speaker 2: season how comfortable he is in doing that, and certainly

237
00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 2: he has the ability to do it. He's been working

238
00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:58,560
Speaker 2: on it. He's incredibly coachable and receptive to all of

239
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:00,839
Speaker 2: those things. But it's just a complete different tests when

240
00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:03,480
Speaker 2: it happens in game action. And I think one other

241
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:06,760
Speaker 2: thing that makes it so difficult is think about the

242
00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,040
Speaker 2: style of the guys that you're on the field with.

243
00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:12,000
Speaker 2: We talk about the physicality of Michael Pittman Junior, and

244
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:15,040
Speaker 2: you think about the hits that he takes and makes incredible,

245
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:18,640
Speaker 2: you know, contested grabs. You watch how Jonathan Taylor runs,

246
00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:21,560
Speaker 2: You watch how you know Zach Moss the barreling style

247
00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 2: of taking down three and four defenders. So when you're

248
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:28,559
Speaker 2: the quarterback, how hard is it if you feel like, oh,

249
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:30,960
Speaker 2: I'm I can't match that level of what these other

250
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,520
Speaker 2: guys on the field are doing, because you do have

251
00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:37,080
Speaker 2: to look at yourself in a different scope with that.

252
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:39,240
Speaker 2: So I think that's one of the things that's interesting too,

253
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:41,319
Speaker 2: is it's ingrained in this team.

254
00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 3: To play that way, to play with that high level

255
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:45,240
Speaker 3: of physicality.

256
00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 2: That physicality, though can still be there, it just has

257
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:48,920
Speaker 2: to look a little bit different.

258
00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:51,359
Speaker 3: When you're talking about Anthony Richards.

259
00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:54,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, well said right there, here's Anthony Richardson himself talking

260
00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:58,160
Speaker 4: about if he needs to change that playing style coming

261
00:10:58,240 --> 00:10:59,079
Speaker 4: up in the fall.

262
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:02,600
Speaker 6: Anyway I could have avoided you know what happened to me.

263
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,600
Speaker 6: You know, it's just a regular routine tackle. You know,

264
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:08,080
Speaker 6: I try to brace myself for the fall and just

265
00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:10,560
Speaker 6: my shorder just you know, did what it did. You know,

266
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:13,040
Speaker 6: there's nothing I could do about that, uh, changing my

267
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:14,880
Speaker 6: game and my play style. You know, I don't feel

268
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:16,880
Speaker 6: like there's anything wrong with my play style. You know,

269
00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:20,160
Speaker 6: people see me. I'm a big quarterback, so they always think, oh,

270
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:21,520
Speaker 6: he wants to run the ball all the time, he

271
00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:24,080
Speaker 6: wants to be physical, and that's what's gonna get him hurt.

272
00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 6: When that's not the case. You know, the times I

273
00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:28,680
Speaker 6: did get hurt. The one time the one can cuss

274
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:30,880
Speaker 6: and that was me completely because I slowed down by

275
00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:32,800
Speaker 6: the end zone. You're never supposed to do that. And

276
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:35,800
Speaker 6: then everything else just happened because we played a dangers game.

277
00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:38,440
Speaker 6: And there's nothing I can do about that but necessarily

278
00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:40,839
Speaker 6: changing my play I don't think I want to change it.

279
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:44,000
Speaker 6: But you know, being smart when knowing when to get

280
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:46,080
Speaker 6: extra yards and knowing when to get down. I feel

281
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:47,760
Speaker 6: like I know how to do that is just you know,

282
00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:49,880
Speaker 6: not I have to do it and do it at

283
00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:51,880
Speaker 6: the right time, I guess. So I don't think I'm

284
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:54,760
Speaker 6: gonna change anything but being smarter for the team, of course.

285
00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:55,439
Speaker 1: A lot of growth.

286
00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:58,040
Speaker 4: That's a really mature answer from a guy that what

287
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:01,000
Speaker 4: basically just turned last week twenty two years old.

288
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:03,240
Speaker 1: We forget that. I think sometimes when you.

289
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:04,920
Speaker 4: Talk about the weight of the world, or at least

290
00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:07,560
Speaker 4: the weight of the pressure of the franchise on this

291
00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:09,199
Speaker 4: young man's shoulders.

292
00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:09,600
Speaker 1: JJ.

293
00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:13,040
Speaker 4: But again, this is a guy that understands that I

294
00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:15,480
Speaker 4: got to be smart. But when the game's on the line,

295
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:18,959
Speaker 4: he's a football player, and he's probably the best football

296
00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:21,679
Speaker 4: player the Colts have in terms of obviously overall athleticism.

297
00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:24,320
Speaker 5: Yeah. I like this answer a lot, Matt from Anthony,

298
00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:26,560
Speaker 5: because what it showed me is that he's not timid.

299
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:30,640
Speaker 5: He's not saying I got hurt last year. I need

300
00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 5: to Yeah, you know, he's get a little tight. It's hey,

301
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:34,080
Speaker 5: I play I play football.

302
00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:37,080
Speaker 1: And they drafted him fourth overall for a reason, right.

303
00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:39,040
Speaker 5: They drafted him forth overall because of these special athletic

304
00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:41,920
Speaker 5: talents that he has uh, you know, that's one of

305
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:45,120
Speaker 5: the aspects of it. But if he if he showed

306
00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:46,880
Speaker 5: up and he was like, yeah, I know I need

307
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,920
Speaker 5: to I need to be smarter and you know, maybe

308
00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:52,200
Speaker 5: I need to not run at as mud Like, No,

309
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:54,360
Speaker 5: you do play football at the end of the day,

310
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:56,679
Speaker 5: and football is a violent sport where there's a lot

311
00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:59,640
Speaker 5: of contact. And the play that he got hurt on,

312
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:01,679
Speaker 5: like his explanation of it was I was trying to

313
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:05,160
Speaker 5: get down and I landed on my shoulder and it's football.

314
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:07,960
Speaker 5: It's it's football. And I like that he has this

315
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:10,880
Speaker 5: approach because again, like you mentioned Matt, with him being

316
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:13,960
Speaker 5: twenty two, this is one of those things where if

317
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:17,320
Speaker 5: he wasn't as mature as he is, maybe he would say, well,

318
00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:20,800
Speaker 5: I got to protect myself. Yeah, but it's hey, you know,

319
00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:23,079
Speaker 5: I do need to protect myself a little bit. But look,

320
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:25,120
Speaker 5: I play football. That's the kind of answer I wanted

321
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:25,800
Speaker 5: to hear out Anthony.

322
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:27,880
Speaker 1: All right, let's go back to Anthony Richardson again.

323
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,120
Speaker 4: A lot of pressure on him from next season in

324
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:32,680
Speaker 4: order to come back and prove that he can stay healthy,

325
00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:36,720
Speaker 4: stay available. But also again you talk about those expectations

326
00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:39,120
Speaker 4: for you know, what kind of productivity are we going

327
00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:40,719
Speaker 4: to see out of him next year? You guys did

328
00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:44,559
Speaker 4: those reckless predictions, and can he have a better year

329
00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:48,000
Speaker 4: statistically than c J strou Where is Anthony Richardson in

330
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:50,600
Speaker 4: the pecking order of the great quarterbacks in the league

331
00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:53,560
Speaker 4: right now? Anthony Richardson's not worried about that. He's not

332
00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:57,120
Speaker 4: at all worried about the quote unquote perfect season for

333
00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:57,640
Speaker 4: next year.

334
00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:00,760
Speaker 6: Nah, I'm not chasing it. I just want to stay

335
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:03,079
Speaker 6: healthy this season, you know, be out there for the team.

336
00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:04,800
Speaker 6: You know, I just played the best I can play,

337
00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:07,600
Speaker 6: you know, not necessarily chasing a perfect season because I

338
00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:09,760
Speaker 6: know it's never going to happen. You know, despite how

339
00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:12,200
Speaker 6: much I wanted to happen, you know it's never going

340
00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:14,199
Speaker 6: to happen. So I just want to make sure I'm

341
00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:15,920
Speaker 6: on point and just do my job one play out

342
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 6: of time, and if I do that, then that might

343
00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:20,680
Speaker 6: be the perfect season. So just focus one play out

344
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:21,320
Speaker 6: of time, That's all.

345
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 4: Again, I love that last line from Anthony Richardson. Just

346
00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:26,800
Speaker 4: focus one play at a time. That's all you gotta do.

347
00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:29,680
Speaker 4: And unfortunately, you know that was take that ability to

348
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:32,720
Speaker 4: do that was taken away from him last October, a

349
00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:35,480
Speaker 4: lot of time to sit and compartmentalize and think about,

350
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:39,280
Speaker 4: you know, the game, cerebrally Lera. This is a guy

351
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:41,520
Speaker 4: that I think is going to be much much better

352
00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:45,160
Speaker 4: both physically and mentally in year two. But in saying that,

353
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:47,200
Speaker 4: we've talked about this all off season, one hundred and

354
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:50,920
Speaker 4: seventy three snaps overall, played just fifteen percent of the

355
00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:54,000
Speaker 4: total offensive snaps from last year. It's not going to

356
00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:56,040
Speaker 4: be perfect. It wasn't perfect last week when we saw

357
00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:58,560
Speaker 4: him in the OTAs he looked at times like a

358
00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:01,360
Speaker 4: second year quarterback that had missed some time.

359
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:03,400
Speaker 1: But he's going to be special.

360
00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:05,800
Speaker 4: You just hope those rookie speed bumps are kind of

361
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 4: smoothed out by the explosive plays that he's going to

362
00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:09,240
Speaker 4: be able to provide.

363
00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:11,720
Speaker 2: Certainly, it'll balance everything out, and you know, it'll only

364
00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:14,280
Speaker 2: gate some of those types of moments. And one of

365
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:17,800
Speaker 2: the things that I hope that people go in to

366
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:20,880
Speaker 2: the season with is allowing him a bit of that grace,

367
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:23,640
Speaker 2: allowing him a bit of that kind of growth early

368
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:26,640
Speaker 2: on in the season. And I'm okay with having you know,

369
00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:28,400
Speaker 2: a few of those Oh okay, we would have liked

370
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:30,280
Speaker 2: to have that one back. But are we seeing the

371
00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:32,400
Speaker 2: things that you want to see? And this is something

372
00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:34,880
Speaker 2: that Shane you know, talked about last week and I

373
00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:37,480
Speaker 2: have it back in my tweets from last week. I

374
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:38,960
Speaker 2: have to pull it up, but you know, he just

375
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:42,440
Speaker 2: talked about he's putting the ball in the right places, right,

376
00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:45,320
Speaker 2: he's getting it out on time, He's doing those things.

377
00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:48,240
Speaker 2: And I think if he's playing smart and for the

378
00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:50,840
Speaker 2: most part giving you exactly that, yes, give him a

379
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:53,000
Speaker 2: little bit of grace in those first especially you know,

380
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:56,480
Speaker 2: three or four games of the season, because my thing

381
00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:59,600
Speaker 2: is just make sure you're on the ascend over the

382
00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:02,560
Speaker 2: middle part of this season, right, get those things out early,

383
00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:07,720
Speaker 2: and then continue to improve and incrementally strengthen as an

384
00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:09,920
Speaker 2: offense so that you're playing your best football of this

385
00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:10,840
Speaker 2: season in December.

386
00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:12,640
Speaker 5: I think this is such a good point to think

387
00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:14,960
Speaker 5: about Anthony, about giving him that grace and like, Okay,

388
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:17,440
Speaker 5: if he sprays a throw a right, you can move

389
00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:19,000
Speaker 5: on to the next play. He still is young. But

390
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:23,160
Speaker 5: the explosiveness aspect of it, I mean, here a situation

391
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:25,800
Speaker 5: that could happen is if you run it on first down,

392
00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:27,280
Speaker 5: maybe you don't get a whole lot. Then he sprays

393
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:30,160
Speaker 5: a throw on second down and you got third and eight. Well,

394
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:33,960
Speaker 5: he can pin it on Josh Down's back shoulder thirty

395
00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:36,800
Speaker 5: yards over the middle to convert a third and eight. Like,

396
00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:40,840
Speaker 5: he has that explosive ability which allows him to overcome

397
00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:44,240
Speaker 5: mistakes better than a quarterback who maybe does not have

398
00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:46,000
Speaker 5: that explosiveness in him.

399
00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:47,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I love this one too.

400
00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:50,160
Speaker 4: I mean, you talk about coming in last year, fourth

401
00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:53,560
Speaker 4: overall pick and all the red rick around Anthony Richardsons, Oh,

402
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:56,720
Speaker 4: he's only played thirteen games, comes in and is semi

403
00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:58,960
Speaker 4: competing just because he's a rookie. The fact that he's

404
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:01,280
Speaker 4: a first year player and he did have so much

405
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:05,880
Speaker 4: inexperience coming from college, but semi competing for that starting job.

406
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:06,520
Speaker 1: You got to prove.

407
00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:09,600
Speaker 4: You gotta see it with Gardner Minshew, No, no, no, no,

408
00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:11,159
Speaker 4: none of that now, None of that.

409
00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:11,400
Speaker 1: Now.

410
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:15,760
Speaker 4: Anthony Richardson is the guy, and this team understands his

411
00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:19,200
Speaker 4: work ethic. They have completely bought into him as a leader.

412
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:23,560
Speaker 4: He's proven that this is a completely different offseason from

413
00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:27,120
Speaker 4: from last year because everybody now knows that the future

414
00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:30,159
Speaker 4: is ar and he's earned the right to be the

415
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:34,399
Speaker 4: franchise quarterback. So here are his expectations and quite frankly,

416
00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:36,720
Speaker 4: the growth that he wants to see from himself from

417
00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:38,080
Speaker 4: year one to year two.

418
00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:41,679
Speaker 6: No, just relaxing. Last year was so much, you know,

419
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:44,200
Speaker 6: being a rookie, so much that I had to take

420
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:46,760
Speaker 6: on now, so much I put on myself, you know, mentally,

421
00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:50,480
Speaker 6: I'm the quarterback, so I wanted to you know, be

422
00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:53,560
Speaker 6: the best version of myself for the team. And you know,

423
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:56,639
Speaker 6: now at the team knows that. You know, I'm a worker.

424
00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:59,639
Speaker 6: You know I don't plan on stopping that, So just

425
00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:04,120
Speaker 6: keep honestly, and now I get to relax and focus

426
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:07,479
Speaker 6: on certain things, more details and just try to perfect

427
00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:08,240
Speaker 6: the things I do know.

428
00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:10,800
Speaker 4: So again a lot packed into that sound bite. A

429
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:14,480
Speaker 4: lot of it is applicable to the practice field and

430
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:17,080
Speaker 4: in between the lines and the grid iron in the

431
00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:19,440
Speaker 4: locker room too. But also JJ, if you can kind

432
00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:22,399
Speaker 4: of read between the lines, no pun intend within that

433
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:24,800
Speaker 4: sound bite, like now he can just sort of be

434
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:29,200
Speaker 4: himself and kind of let his hair down metaphorically and

435
00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:31,879
Speaker 4: lead the way that he wants to. Not that he

436
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:34,800
Speaker 4: wasn't doing that last year, but again, everybody now has

437
00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:38,840
Speaker 4: a better understanding of who he is, what his personality is,

438
00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:40,720
Speaker 4: and what the locker room.

439
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:43,160
Speaker 1: Needs to do to adapt to him to allow him

440
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:43,560
Speaker 1: to thrive.

441
00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:45,679
Speaker 5: Well, I think the way the Colts set it up

442
00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:48,199
Speaker 5: last year for him was really smart, where we know

443
00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:50,760
Speaker 5: this is going to be your team and ideally you're

444
00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:53,200
Speaker 5: going to be our starting quarterback, but you got to

445
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:54,879
Speaker 5: earn it, and you have to earn it to the

446
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:56,800
Speaker 5: locker room. You have to prove to the locker room

447
00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:57,520
Speaker 5: you can be that guy.

448
00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:00,360
Speaker 4: And he's also just going through that rookie whirlwind. Where

449
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:02,560
Speaker 4: do I park right, where's the training room?

450
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:04,280
Speaker 5: Who's you know, who's in the cafeteria?

451
00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:06,399
Speaker 1: Who do I talk to for this? Right? Yeah?

452
00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:10,280
Speaker 5: But once once he proves that, that's that's a big

453
00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:12,080
Speaker 5: step for the rest of the team that you know,

454
00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:14,200
Speaker 5: he got named a team voted a team captain. Sure,

455
00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:17,040
Speaker 5: And now you kind of add in, Okay, well, now

456
00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:19,280
Speaker 5: you aren't looking to you do know where you're going

457
00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:22,159
Speaker 5: around the building. So now what you're proving is you

458
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:24,080
Speaker 5: got to prove it every year. But you're not proving

459
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:27,120
Speaker 5: you belong. Now you're proving you can be the guy,

460
00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:30,040
Speaker 5: you can be the long term thing. And that's that's

461
00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:33,439
Speaker 5: different when you feel more relaxed and more comfortable, like

462
00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:36,480
Speaker 5: and I think just reading between the lines, I don't

463
00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 5: think he was his confidence ever wavered, but it's like

464
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:41,680
Speaker 5: it's probably a different kind of confidence. Ye hey, I've

465
00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:43,280
Speaker 5: done it. I know it's only one hundred and seventy

466
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:46,080
Speaker 5: three snaps, but I've operated around this team. I've been

467
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:48,600
Speaker 5: around the team. I feel like I'm a better quarterback

468
00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:52,080
Speaker 5: going into year two. And that relaxation factor that he

469
00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:54,560
Speaker 5: talked about, I think is so important for a quarterback

470
00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 5: when they make that year one to year two jump.

471
00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:58,280
Speaker 4: Lara one more SoundBite we need to get to. But

472
00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:01,320
Speaker 4: before we do that, and this is loaded question, I understand,

473
00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:04,320
Speaker 4: But in what ways last week did you see Anthony

474
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:06,800
Speaker 4: Richardson just in and out of the huddle, at the

475
00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:10,000
Speaker 4: line of scrimmage, between plays, engaging with teammates.

476
00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:12,080
Speaker 1: In what ways did you see him a.

477
00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:14,239
Speaker 4: Little bit more relaxed, a little bit more comfortable than

478
00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:17,360
Speaker 4: he was this time last year when everything was being

479
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:18,800
Speaker 4: thrown at him for the first time.

480
00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:21,960
Speaker 3: You know, I mean, I don't think it looked that

481
00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:22,560
Speaker 3: to me.

482
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:25,439
Speaker 2: I don't think it looked that different because Anthony is

483
00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:30,040
Speaker 2: so even as a person like that's just his demeanor.

484
00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:32,400
Speaker 2: You think about that when I think it was Chris

485
00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:35,520
Speaker 2: Ballard was asked about this last year, you know, going

486
00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:39,040
Speaker 2: into camp, and he talked about like he never is

487
00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:42,240
Speaker 2: up here or down here. He really strikes that all

488
00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:45,800
Speaker 2: the time, of this level of poise and composure all once.

489
00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:49,560
Speaker 2: So I don't think from what I can recall, obviously

490
00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:53,359
Speaker 2: small sample sized last year, but it wasn't there weren't

491
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:54,280
Speaker 2: these times where.

492
00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:56,159
Speaker 5: He looked really rattled or that.

493
00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:59,040
Speaker 2: Yes, certainly it's coming at him from all sides, but

494
00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:01,760
Speaker 2: I never thought he exuded that or led on to that,

495
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:03,800
Speaker 2: And I think that that is a big part of

496
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:06,960
Speaker 2: why he was as a rookie named the team captain

497
00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:14,120
Speaker 2: because of this, you know, just this overwhelming, extensive confidence

498
00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:17,800
Speaker 2: that just is a ripple effect over the entire offense,

499
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:21,200
Speaker 2: like the way that he conducts himself. So I don't

500
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:23,680
Speaker 2: think it was a dressed to me, not a drastic

501
00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:26,439
Speaker 2: difference or anything much difference from what we saw, just

502
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:30,919
Speaker 2: because that's truly who he is. Yes, his comfort level

503
00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:34,520
Speaker 2: is increasing, but to me, confidence has always been there.

504
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:36,720
Speaker 5: I mean also just think about too, like as the

505
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:39,040
Speaker 5: cults are going through these installs right now, this is

506
00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:43,719
Speaker 5: probably the fourth fifth time that he's gone through installing

507
00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:46,280
Speaker 5: some of these things, probably third or fourth whatever. It

508
00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:49,680
Speaker 5: is like, you know, you get the play call, and

509
00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:52,440
Speaker 5: last year he probably had to like listen really intently

510
00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:56,000
Speaker 5: of like videos like our Lobsky Chase Daniel have done

511
00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:58,240
Speaker 5: of like here's the play call and it's like forty

512
00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:01,320
Speaker 5: words and if you don't, if you've never played quarterback,

513
00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:03,600
Speaker 5: halfway through, your eyes probably just glaze over and you're like,

514
00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:05,760
Speaker 5: what the heck is this? But for him, it's like.

515
00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:08,680
Speaker 2: The little kids that Snack's Crossing Elementary School when Shane

516
00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:10,320
Speaker 2: was up at the board on the schedule release.

517
00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:11,240
Speaker 5: Video, Oh that was incredible.

518
00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:13,200
Speaker 3: Yeah right, that's the look that you get.

519
00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:13,880
Speaker 5: That's the yeah.

520
00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:15,640
Speaker 1: But in the bear front now we're going to go yeah,

521
00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:16,080
Speaker 1: exactly so.

522
00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:19,040
Speaker 5: But imagine now like this is he doesn't. He probably

523
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:21,040
Speaker 5: hears a couple of keywords and it's like I know

524
00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:23,119
Speaker 5: the play and I can go spit it out in

525
00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:26,399
Speaker 5: the huddle without having to think about it as much.

526
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:28,919
Speaker 5: It's just with that repetition where you've done it. And

527
00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:32,320
Speaker 5: he probably said those things confidently last year, but now

528
00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:34,680
Speaker 5: it's like he doesn't. It's it's second nature. To him

529
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:37,200
Speaker 5: to be able to know here's the play call, here's

530
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:41,160
Speaker 5: the situation, and also his relationship with Shane now being

531
00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:43,600
Speaker 5: in year two, he is an idea of what to

532
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:45,879
Speaker 5: expect from Shane. Shane is an idea of what to

533
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:48,600
Speaker 5: expect from him in terms of their communication, in terms

534
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:51,239
Speaker 5: of Hey, what play you thinking here? That stuff all

535
00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:51,800
Speaker 5: matters a lot.

536
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:52,080
Speaker 1: Yeah.

537
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:54,840
Speaker 4: Indeed, all right, one final time, let's go back to practice.

538
00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:57,960
Speaker 4: Last week here from Anthony Richardson on the comfort level

539
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:00,840
Speaker 4: that he has settling in and with this offense here

540
00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:01,280
Speaker 4: in the spring.

541
00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:04,399
Speaker 6: Yeah, definitely, I'm more comfortable with the offense now, you know,

542
00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:07,399
Speaker 6: not I have like a year under my belt, you know,

543
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:09,679
Speaker 6: not a year of playing time, but you know, just

544
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:13,760
Speaker 6: being in the meetings every day then just studying, you know,

545
00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:16,560
Speaker 6: all the time, coming here early in the morning, meeting

546
00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:19,159
Speaker 6: with Shane. You know, that's something I take pride in

547
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:21,760
Speaker 6: because if I know the offense inside it out, like

548
00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:24,480
Speaker 6: saying does, then I think we're going to be unstoppable.

549
00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:27,200
Speaker 6: So you just I just got to keep perfecting and

550
00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:29,200
Speaker 6: just keep trusting myself and trusting the offense again.

551
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:32,520
Speaker 4: Anthony Richardson, last week of Week one of OTA's for

552
00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:33,639
Speaker 4: the Indianapolis Colts.

553
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:35,600
Speaker 1: Those continue this week.

554
00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:38,720
Speaker 4: And that was another one of the bigger picture takeaways

555
00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:41,399
Speaker 4: I had last week was just when we talked about it,

556
00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:44,680
Speaker 4: the continuity. Twenty one at a twenty two starters were

557
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:47,320
Speaker 4: available on the field last week. The only exception I

558
00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:50,520
Speaker 4: believe was Braden Smith at the right tackle position as

559
00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:54,640
Speaker 4: he continues to rehab from off season surgery. But Jonathan

560
00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:57,200
Speaker 4: Taylor was out there with Anthony Richardson for the first

561
00:23:57,240 --> 00:23:59,640
Speaker 4: time in a long time what was it two three

562
00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:02,879
Speaker 4: snap last year they played together only a handful of

563
00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:06,200
Speaker 4: practices they were on the field together for last year.

564
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:08,800
Speaker 4: Ad Ni Mitchell was on the field, Michael Pittman was

565
00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:12,359
Speaker 4: on the field, Josh Downs, Jelannie Woods, which is a

566
00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:15,879
Speaker 4: really good segue because talking about bigger picture things or

567
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:18,159
Speaker 4: other things that stood out to us last week in

568
00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:20,960
Speaker 4: Week one of OTA's Jeelanni Woods number eighty, was out

569
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,960
Speaker 4: there making plays and what a sight for sore eyes

570
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:28,320
Speaker 4: as he battled multiple hamstring injuries last year. And I'm

571
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:30,960
Speaker 4: saying because of that, Jj, He's going to be fighting

572
00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:33,600
Speaker 4: tooth and nail. He's going to be scratching, clawing to

573
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:36,240
Speaker 4: make this team this year because of all the different

574
00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:40,600
Speaker 4: skill sets within this tight end room. But if he's healthy,

575
00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:43,280
Speaker 4: he could be a major part of the Colts push

576
00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:45,679
Speaker 4: to be more explosive, especially in the middle of the

577
00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:46,119
Speaker 4: field and.

578
00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:47,000
Speaker 1: Up the seams.

579
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:49,080
Speaker 5: Next year with Anthony Richardson, he had a little catch

580
00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:49,520
Speaker 5: and run.

581
00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:50,280
Speaker 1: It was nice.

582
00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:52,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, where you know, that's sort of your reminder

583
00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:55,520
Speaker 5: of like the way that Jeelanni Woods moves at six seven,

584
00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:57,840
Speaker 5: two sixty whatever he is is not the way that

585
00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:01,320
Speaker 5: people who are his size should move and and that

586
00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:03,880
Speaker 5: was a that was a welcome site to see that

587
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:07,000
Speaker 5: He's got to be He's got to consistently remain available.

588
00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:09,480
Speaker 5: But I don't know if you follow him on Instagram,

589
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:13,199
Speaker 5: he all off season has been posting like workout videos,

590
00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:16,240
Speaker 5: and you know it, a lot of players do that,

591
00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:18,919
Speaker 5: but for him, I think there is some meaning in

592
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:23,280
Speaker 5: that of like, hey, I'm back, I'm ready to go.

593
00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:26,639
Speaker 5: Those hamstring issues that nagged me and caused me to

594
00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:28,800
Speaker 5: miss an entire year are thing of the past, and

595
00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:30,479
Speaker 5: I've done everything in my power to make sure they

596
00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:33,240
Speaker 5: do not come back. That's a really, really good thing

597
00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:36,760
Speaker 5: to see the commitment that he has put in this

598
00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:38,680
Speaker 5: off season to takeing care of his body.

599
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:41,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, and speaking of availability again, on the offensive side

600
00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:45,080
Speaker 4: of the ball, the bigger or the big headliner there

601
00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:46,320
Speaker 4: again was Jolannie Woods.

602
00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:48,160
Speaker 1: But on the defensive side.

603
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:50,560
Speaker 4: Of the ball there, I love seeing Juju Brints out there,

604
00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:53,440
Speaker 4: you know, this time last year with the wrist, then

605
00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:57,119
Speaker 4: throughout the season this nine games with quad and hamsterring injuries.

606
00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:00,840
Speaker 4: His availability this year in the spring, he's taking that

607
00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:03,240
Speaker 4: very very seriously. He looks much improved.

608
00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:05,920
Speaker 2: And I thought he just looked heels really fast out there,

609
00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:08,639
Speaker 2: like right now, it's not it's not meant to be

610
00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:11,480
Speaker 2: hyper competitive, right you can't do full contact type of things.

611
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:14,440
Speaker 2: But I thought that he's towing that line of absolutely

612
00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:17,880
Speaker 2: making sure like he's maximizing every rep that he's out

613
00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:22,240
Speaker 2: there on the field. To me, I thought he looked

614
00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:24,919
Speaker 2: even better than where he left off at the end

615
00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:29,160
Speaker 2: of last season, like all around, like having that health there,

616
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:33,480
Speaker 2: just his strength, his confidence in his playmaking ability.

617
00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:36,840
Speaker 3: I think he and he he's vocal out there, like

618
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:37,879
Speaker 3: he'll talk it.

619
00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:41,600
Speaker 2: I like it a lot like Juju brings an edge

620
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:44,920
Speaker 2: a bit back there out on the practice field when

621
00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:47,679
Speaker 2: he's out there and he's you know, talking sometimes with

622
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:50,240
Speaker 2: Michael Pittman, you know, or whoever it might be, Like,

623
00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:52,560
Speaker 2: you think about some of the more vocal guys in

624
00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:56,280
Speaker 2: a really healthy, like good competitive way that maybe we

625
00:26:56,400 --> 00:26:58,240
Speaker 2: haven't seen as much of. And I think it's a

626
00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:00,719
Speaker 2: really good thing where this team right now does have

627
00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:04,480
Speaker 2: a little bit of nastiness about them that's fun to see.

628
00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:06,640
Speaker 2: And I mean that like a very like healthy way

629
00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:09,200
Speaker 2: that is going to you know, give them a bit

630
00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:12,080
Speaker 2: more of an edge and some of those things that

631
00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:14,159
Speaker 2: you're gonna see put on display when we get into

632
00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:14,680
Speaker 2: training camp.

633
00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:18,119
Speaker 5: So Juju said last week that he's treating these OTA

634
00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:21,040
Speaker 5: reps like a game because he didn't have as much

635
00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:21,919
Speaker 5: of it last year.

636
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:23,760
Speaker 2: And like the end none of it. He has said

637
00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:27,800
Speaker 2: that the risk coming out of the draft, Yeah.

638
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:29,040
Speaker 5: But the end of the season you can tell has

639
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:31,639
Speaker 5: really stuck with him. Yeah, he wasn't able to finish

640
00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:34,080
Speaker 5: the season healthy. That has eight at him and that

641
00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:38,600
Speaker 5: is that has clearly motivated him to in a way

642
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:41,240
Speaker 5: this offseason that again it's leading to Like when you

643
00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:43,160
Speaker 5: mentioned that the jawing that he's having and the way

644
00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:44,520
Speaker 5: that he looks in moves, Yeah, it looks like he's

645
00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:46,880
Speaker 5: treating this like a game, Like he knows the value

646
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:49,360
Speaker 5: of this and he's so hungry to get back out there,

647
00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:51,760
Speaker 5: put a helmet on and go play football, even if

648
00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:55,359
Speaker 5: it's you know, in shorts without pads yet, Like he's

649
00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:57,400
Speaker 5: not taking any of this for granted, and that's another

650
00:27:57,440 --> 00:27:57,919
Speaker 5: really good thing.

651
00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:00,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, when healthy, when available, he's a starter. He's a

652
00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:02,840
Speaker 4: big time contributor for the Colts on defense. All right,

653
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:05,080
Speaker 4: grab bag, as we close out here, anything else that

654
00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:08,120
Speaker 4: stood out to you? You had a big time pick

655
00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:12,560
Speaker 4: and a takeaway by Jalen Carlis that six ' five wingspan,

656
00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:14,479
Speaker 4: That athleticism was on full display.

657
00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:16,440
Speaker 1: I think he picked off Joe flatto.

658
00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:18,440
Speaker 5: Ja that interception. So I don't know if you ever

659
00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:21,560
Speaker 5: played like NCAA football, like the old game. Obviously the

660
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:23,040
Speaker 5: new one's coming out, but the old game had this

661
00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:25,440
Speaker 5: problem like two thousand and eight, two thousand and nine,

662
00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:28,040
Speaker 5: if it was like the seven foot linebacker where it's

663
00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:30,040
Speaker 5: like anytime you threw it over the middle, if the

664
00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:31,919
Speaker 5: linebacker wasn't zoned, they were going to pick it off.

665
00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:33,920
Speaker 5: And it's like, I wobbed it. What the heck?

666
00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:34,320
Speaker 6: No?

667
00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:37,160
Speaker 5: I watched Jalen Carlies do that, and I'm like there

668
00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:39,800
Speaker 5: it is. There's your seven foot linebacker from Encaduba football.

669
00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:41,800
Speaker 5: Oh nine, Just you're trying to throw over the middle. Nope,

670
00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:44,520
Speaker 5: guy's got a condor like wingspan. He's gonna pick it off.

671
00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:45,320
Speaker 3: And Shane mentioned it.

672
00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:47,160
Speaker 2: He's like, that's exactly where I would have placed the

673
00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:49,040
Speaker 2: bro Like, that's where exactly where I was looking and

674
00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:53,720
Speaker 2: totally underestimated this. That length and the athleticism of got

675
00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:55,080
Speaker 2: to make that kind of a play.

676
00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:55,840
Speaker 3: It was unreal.

677
00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:58,520
Speaker 5: Why having thirty four and a quarter inch arms does matter?

678
00:28:58,640 --> 00:28:59,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, you don't forget back.

679
00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:02,520
Speaker 4: This is guy going from safety in the defensive backfield

680
00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:04,000
Speaker 4: two linebackers, and the.

681
00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:05,400
Speaker 1: Colts have done that before.

682
00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:07,960
Speaker 5: Daniel Scott, Daniel Scott and the guy who absolutely a

683
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,120
Speaker 5: guy who Chris Ballard has mentioned like at every single

684
00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:12,480
Speaker 5: turn this offseason. Hey, don't forget about this guy we

685
00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:13,080
Speaker 5: really liked.

686
00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:14,600
Speaker 1: Like an extra draft pick this year.

687
00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:17,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, he tours ACL last year during the off season

688
00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:19,400
Speaker 5: program and a guy who the Colts really like and

689
00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:22,320
Speaker 5: think has some upside to potentially compete to play some safety.

690
00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:23,120
Speaker 1: This no doubt about it.

691
00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:24,800
Speaker 4: And again, I know you talked about this before we

692
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:27,320
Speaker 4: hit the record button, but and you mentioned it. I

693
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:30,480
Speaker 4: totally agree and I noted it when I saw it again.

694
00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:33,320
Speaker 4: We talked about it earlier. But Jonathan Taylor out there,

695
00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:36,800
Speaker 4: But my god, he looks good. Yeah, he looks really good.

696
00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:38,800
Speaker 5: Seeing five and twenty eight nights to each other year.

697
00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:39,280
Speaker 1: He looks like.

698
00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:42,600
Speaker 2: It's been a while that Jonathan has been healthy at

699
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:43,840
Speaker 2: this point, right, no doubt.

700
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:46,240
Speaker 3: I mean that's you kind of think back and you're like, oh, yeah,

701
00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:46,720
Speaker 3: that's right.

702
00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:48,800
Speaker 2: At the end of each season he's had to kind

703
00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:51,080
Speaker 2: of come off of something and recover and rehabit. He

704
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:54,960
Speaker 2: has had this gift of health in the off season

705
00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:57,600
Speaker 2: to just be able to continuously build for the most part,

706
00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:00,200
Speaker 2: you know, after having the hand that he battled through

707
00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:02,640
Speaker 2: last season and some other things, you know, late and

708
00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:05,360
Speaker 2: I mean, he looks incredibly strong.

709
00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:06,480
Speaker 3: One looks refreshed.

710
00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:09,120
Speaker 5: Yes, refreshed is a good way to put it. One

711
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:11,600
Speaker 5: other thing I wanted to note is you and Jeffrey.

712
00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 5: Last week, you have you chatted with Juju Brents and

713
00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:17,480
Speaker 5: something he said he was like, sorry, I'm running a

714
00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:20,240
Speaker 5: little late. Ad and I were out on the field

715
00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:23,360
Speaker 5: for twenty minutes working on releases and footwork and stuff.

716
00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:26,240
Speaker 5: And this is not an isolated thing with Adie Mitchell.

717
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:29,280
Speaker 5: You remember at Rookie Minni Caamp, that first day of

718
00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:32,400
Speaker 5: Rookie Mini Caamp, They're gonna bring ad to the podium

719
00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:35,320
Speaker 5: to talk and we're waiting, waiting and a look over

720
00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:39,280
Speaker 5: and he's working on releases. He's got Keaton Slovas throwing

721
00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:42,480
Speaker 5: him like forty balls to work on stuff. This is

722
00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:46,920
Speaker 5: a guy who like that what Chris Ballard said after

723
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:49,320
Speaker 5: the draft, he said it was bs. All the stuff

724
00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:53,680
Speaker 5: about his maturity and all that. We have seen a

725
00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:57,760
Speaker 5: remarkable work ethic for Ady Mitchell. A guy who cares,

726
00:30:57,840 --> 00:31:02,000
Speaker 5: a guy who really this matters to him, him, all

727
00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:04,800
Speaker 5: that stuff. Just seeing what ad has been like out

728
00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:07,440
Speaker 5: on the field and then after practice just makes me

729
00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:09,200
Speaker 5: think even more and more all that stuff is just

730
00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:11,600
Speaker 5: one scout spouting some bs about the guys.

731
00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:13,240
Speaker 3: Also just seeing him on the field.

732
00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:15,560
Speaker 2: When I was watching the guys come out, I was

733
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:18,640
Speaker 2: grabbing some clips and stuff last week and when he

734
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:22,320
Speaker 2: walked out, Holy, he is larger than what.

735
00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:23,280
Speaker 1: It looks like a running back.

736
00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:26,280
Speaker 2: He is so much bigger than what I thought like

737
00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:28,480
Speaker 2: going through Like just watching things like I mean even

738
00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:30,960
Speaker 2: when you watch you know, the film from Texas and

739
00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:33,600
Speaker 2: things like no, Like I was like, oh, like.

740
00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:37,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I can't route running, the cutting.

741
00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:40,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, those two things. I can't wait for training camp

742
00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:42,360
Speaker 5: when our fans start get to see it. The way

743
00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:45,000
Speaker 5: that he catches the ball, it's out here, it is

744
00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:46,760
Speaker 5: out in front of his body. That takes a lot

745
00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:50,280
Speaker 5: of confidence to go do that, and that takes really

746
00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:52,000
Speaker 5: good hands. The guy only did what one drop in

747
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:54,520
Speaker 5: his last two years of college, like he's got he's

748
00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:56,400
Speaker 5: got a really good set of hands on him in

749
00:31:56,400 --> 00:32:00,200
Speaker 5: addition to some of that athleticism and fluidity in his

750
00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:00,840
Speaker 5: route running.

751
00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:03,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, and a clutch player, primetime player in those college

752
00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:06,960
Speaker 4: football playoff games, all kinds of touchdowns, big moments for

753
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:09,000
Speaker 4: his teams on the biggest stage.

754
00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:10,680
Speaker 1: We're clutch as well. But we got to run.

755
00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:12,680
Speaker 4: We got people coming in to take over this space,

756
00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:16,200
Speaker 4: so we got a jet. But again OTAs for the Colts,

757
00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:18,560
Speaker 4: they roll on the rest of this week, will have
