11
00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:38,440
Speaker 1: We got a good question this week coming up about

12
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:40,120
Speaker 1: a guy who didn't play on Sunday. I know it's

13
00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:42,800
Speaker 1: not a question about Anthony Richardson, it's a question about

14
00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:46,120
Speaker 1: j T. Twey moloow. Before I continue on this one, though,

15
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:51,800
Speaker 1: like the atmosphere on Sunday was incredible, just like the

16
00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:55,400
Speaker 1: gravity of that game obviously with mister Orsay going in

17
00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:57,960
Speaker 1: the Ring of honor, it being the season opener, and

18
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:01,560
Speaker 1: then the way it went. If you were at that game,

19
00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:03,640
Speaker 1: shout out for making all the noise that you did.

20
00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:08,240
Speaker 1: Really fun atmosphere, really just like fun game to do

21
00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:10,560
Speaker 1: the pa for. I mean, you're scoring so many touchdowns

22
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:12,959
Speaker 1: and you're keeping Miami, you know, holding them to a

23
00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:16,440
Speaker 1: shutout for most of the game. But this week against Denver,

24
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:20,200
Speaker 1: if you're gonna show up for this game, let me

25
00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:24,360
Speaker 1: just implore you to do this. Stay in your seat

26
00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 1: at halftime because it's mascots versus pee wee's. It is

27
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:31,560
Speaker 1: my favorite thing we do at halftime every year because

28
00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:35,000
Speaker 1: you've got like kids trying to tackle Blue and Blues

29
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:38,600
Speaker 1: hitting them with a stiff arm. You've got like all

30
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:41,680
Speaker 1: these mascots just run around looking super goofy. Well, kids

31
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:45,840
Speaker 1: are playing it's the best, and Blue always does something

32
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:48,040
Speaker 1: that you know, shout out to Blue, He's the best.

33
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 1: We all know that he always does something that is

34
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:54,240
Speaker 1: just like super funny during this. But my favorite part

35
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:56,880
Speaker 1: of the whole thing is if you noticed last year

36
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,720
Speaker 1: there was some live like Scooby Doo sound effects that

37
00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:01,760
Speaker 1: were going on in the stadium. I want to give

38
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:03,680
Speaker 1: a special shout out to my guy, Brian Mitchell on

39
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 1: the Hanks and Box. He's got a little like panel.

40
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:07,840
Speaker 1: He works for our Cults content team. He's got a

41
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:12,240
Speaker 1: little panel and he'll press those things to really accentuate

42
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:15,840
Speaker 1: a stiff arm from a mascot or a kid juking

43
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:19,320
Speaker 1: someone out. It is, it is so much fun. It

44
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:21,840
Speaker 1: is so well put on. I mean, it comes from

45
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:23,680
Speaker 1: the blank, the brain of Blue, so of course it's

46
00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:25,519
Speaker 1: gonna be great. But like, seriously, if you're going to

47
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:29,120
Speaker 1: the game Saturday, please stain your seats at halftime for

48
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 1: the most fun halftime show that anyone puts on. Not

49
00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:35,040
Speaker 1: just for the Colts, but like that, I think anyone

50
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 1: puts on in the NFL. Other teams do mascots versus

51
00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 1: Pee Wee's. We do it the best because we got Blue,

52
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:42,800
Speaker 1: we got the Hanks and Box and we've got just

53
00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:47,400
Speaker 1: a tremendous group of mascots coming in for this one.

54
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:49,480
Speaker 1: All right, we're gonna get to my chat with Kenny

55

00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,200
Speaker 1: Colt Show with cornerback Kenny Moore of the second Kenny,

86
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:40,840
Speaker 1: how you doing man right?

87
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,640
Speaker 2: Just got off the practice field, Probably little bit tired?

88
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:46,599
Speaker 3: Yeah, little I'm at work.

89
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,040
Speaker 1: Well, Wednesday, here at work. We're all at work here.

90
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,840
Speaker 1: Tell me about week one. What was the the energy

91
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,279
Speaker 1: like on that defense specifically?

92
00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:58,640
Speaker 3: It was great? It was great.

93
00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:02,320
Speaker 4: We we kind of gained that the energy throughout practice

94
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:04,919
Speaker 4: in the week. We did everything that we were supposed to do,

95
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:07,800
Speaker 4: you know, leading up to the game being prepared. The

96
00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 4: communication was on and the urgency was there. I think

97
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:14,040
Speaker 4: the urgency is what comes up for me just using

98
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:16,280
Speaker 4: each other, just playing off of each other. The chemistry

99
00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:19,119
Speaker 4: the fans came out look at all was jumping.

100
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:23,119
Speaker 1: The way that that game wound up playing out thirty

101
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 1: three to eight, don't you know? Miami doesn't score a

102
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:29,240
Speaker 1: point until the fourth quarter. How do you have to

103
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:33,960
Speaker 1: digest that now? Looking forward to week two.

104
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:37,880
Speaker 4: I mean it's easy. Nothing against Miami really matters anymore.

105
00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:41,240
Speaker 4: You just got to turn the page and flip the script.

106
00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:44,799
Speaker 4: So we're just getting ready for a really good Broncos team.

107
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:47,800
Speaker 4: Played them last year. They have a lot of good

108
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:50,480
Speaker 4: things off the play action in the run game and

109
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:55,520
Speaker 4: setting up whenever they get across the fifty. So yeah,

110
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,839
Speaker 4: I think anything that we did against Miami really doesn't

111
00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 4: matter anymore. And uh, we just want to go in

112
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:04,640
Speaker 4: this week be want to know and come out with Vidory.

113
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:06,240
Speaker 1: All right, I want to ask you about this. The

114
00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:10,200
Speaker 1: first snap of the game against Miami, you lined up

115
00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:13,840
Speaker 1: in the slot and you bailed into a cover two

116
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:17,840
Speaker 1: deep half. That was the first snap of the game.

117
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:23,280
Speaker 1: That was a first intent. That's insane. Like, just tell

118
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 1: me about lou An Rumo and just the as the

119
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 1: game went on and he's calling these plays like the

120
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:30,039
Speaker 1: way that the cam put it is. He was calling

121
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:32,719
Speaker 1: plays like a madman. Yeah, how does that inspire you?

122
00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:34,000
Speaker 3: Guys? It's just.

123
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 4: On the defense, you know, you never know how he's

124
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:42,160
Speaker 4: gonna call it a game but it's forcing us to

125
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:44,000
Speaker 4: to be in it with him, uh, to have the

126
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:46,839
Speaker 4: urgency to be ready, be setting ready, to have the

127
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:51,320
Speaker 4: communication going. I think, I think just I really love

128
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:54,800
Speaker 4: it because it's given versatility among the position and so

129
00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:57,039
Speaker 4: you know, it's a hard hat that you gotta wear,

130
00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:59,760
Speaker 4: you know, as it's a leadership role, it's a it's

131
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:02,040
Speaker 4: a chemistry is a communication role. You just got to

132
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:07,159
Speaker 4: be on it on all details. So with that it

133
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:10,120
Speaker 4: comes a little pressure. But I think if you, if

134
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:13,120
Speaker 4: you take practice serious, if you if you are intentional

135
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 4: with practice, then he's given us all the answers right

136
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:17,400
Speaker 4: here in practice and we just got to be on

137
00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:18,720
Speaker 4: it with details.

138
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:20,160
Speaker 1: For you to be able to be in that position

139
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 1: to you know, you might bail into a deep half

140
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:24,720
Speaker 1: on one play, you might blitz on another play, you

141
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:26,920
Speaker 1: might just play the guy in the slot on another play.

142
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 1: What do you like about that versatility that gives you

143
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:32,000
Speaker 1: the opportunities to make plays pretty much anywhere on the field.

144
00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:34,120
Speaker 4: I like it because I can't fall asleep. You know,

145
00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:36,360
Speaker 4: I'm not doing the same thing every single play. It

146
00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 4: keeps it fresh, it keeps it, It keeps me in

147
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:40,400
Speaker 4: the game.

148
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 3: It makes the game really fun for me.

149
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:46,760
Speaker 4: That's what I think about whenever I think about a

150
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,640
Speaker 4: deficime back in the league. I think about, you know,

151
00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:51,520
Speaker 4: how can he affect the game in many ways? And

152
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 4: and so uh, coach Lou Anrimo. He gives us the

153
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:57,080
Speaker 4: keys back there to to do a lot of different

154
00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 4: things and you know, how we can knock off time

155
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 4: and or how we can get into the quarterbacks progression

156
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:03,280
Speaker 4: to read.

157
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:04,520
Speaker 3: So it's pretty.

158
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:06,200
Speaker 1: Fun when when you found out, you know, hey, Lou's

159
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:07,560
Speaker 1: going to be the DC this year, did you go

160
00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:10,840
Speaker 1: immediate and immediately excuse me to like Mike Hilton film

161
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,320
Speaker 1: and like look a little bit how he used him there,

162
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 1: Like what was your initial sort of like dipping your

163
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:17,440
Speaker 1: toe into like, hey, this is what we might be

164
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 1: doing this year.

165
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:22,080
Speaker 4: I actually reached out to Mike Hilton. I think maybe

166
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:26,520
Speaker 4: before we got Lou, but definitely afterwards. I definitely remember

167
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:29,480
Speaker 4: talking to Mike Hilton after we got coach and rumo,

168
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:32,559
Speaker 4: just you know what to look out for, what's the expectation.

169
00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:35,800
Speaker 4: And he was really spot on. He was really spot on.

170
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 4: He said, you will love it. You'll love him as

171
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:41,280
Speaker 4: a coach. He'll push you. He's very aggressive, so and

172
00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:43,760
Speaker 4: then obviously speaking to Lou, everything was spot on. And

173
00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:46,839
Speaker 4: you know, being coached by coach Lou and Arumo as

174
00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:50,320
Speaker 4: he's been a really big push. In my ninth year

175
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:54,000
Speaker 4: in the NFL, I'm always learning. He keeps it fresh

176
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 4: and he keeps the pressure on. So I'm looking forward

177
00:08:57,960 --> 00:08:59,559
Speaker 4: to being coached by him even more and learning him

178
00:08:59,559 --> 00:08:59,800
Speaker 4: some more.

179
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:01,480
Speaker 2: In what ways has he already pushed you.

180
00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:07,680
Speaker 4: Just pre snap post snap of just my effort and

181
00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:10,960
Speaker 4: just how I'm able to be a leader within the

182
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:14,000
Speaker 4: defense and just just to play making ability and how

183
00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:17,920
Speaker 4: we can rise and be better. There's always room to

184
00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:19,800
Speaker 4: be better, and he wants the best out of.

185
00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:21,960
Speaker 1: Me for for you to get that in year nine,

186
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,840
Speaker 1: like you were talking about, you know, how has it

187
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:28,040
Speaker 1: been like almost rejuvenating for you a little bit in

188
00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:28,560
Speaker 1: your career?

189
00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:29,360
Speaker 3: Yeah? I love it.

190
00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 4: I love it. It's been everything I've wanted for some

191
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 4: time and and here we are, so hopefully we can

192
00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:40,000
Speaker 4: put a lot of good things on display.

193
00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:41,240
Speaker 1: For like you and the Vats on this defense who

194
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:44,439
Speaker 1: have been here for a while. You know, Grove buck Zaire,

195
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:48,120
Speaker 1: what is that process been like in you know, being

196
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 1: looked to as leaders on this team while communicating this

197
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:53,600
Speaker 1: new defense, Like, how is that process gone?

198
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:58,920
Speaker 4: It's going well, I think, you know, we don't always

199
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:03,200
Speaker 4: have the answers, so you know, having a coach, being

200
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:05,960
Speaker 4: able to depend on the coach and the same way

201
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:07,960
Speaker 4: vice versa. You know, it takes all of us to

202
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:12,760
Speaker 4: be able to put a lot of good things on display.

203
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:16,520
Speaker 4: Learning a new defense, learning new teammates is all humbling

204
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:19,440
Speaker 4: because like there's there's just a lot of things you

205
00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:21,720
Speaker 4: don't know, Like there's a lot of questions out there.

206
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:23,560
Speaker 4: There's a lot of things that we have to go

207
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:27,640
Speaker 4: back and look at. So I think that's the best part, honestly,

208
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:31,600
Speaker 4: is just renoing that relationship with Zaire and I are

209
00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:37,160
Speaker 4: Buck and Grover, like we just it's new. So I

210
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:41,200
Speaker 4: just think it's it's really fun to be honest, just

211
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:45,440
Speaker 4: not always knowing what to expect, and that's what keeps

212
00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:45,960
Speaker 4: it fun for me.

213
00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:48,959
Speaker 1: Like that when when Cam said, like louis calling plays

214
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:52,480
Speaker 1: like a madman, Like when he's calling these things on

215
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:55,160
Speaker 1: first and second down that usually traditionally are reserved for

216
00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 1: like third and fourth downs. Yeah, how does that stress

217
00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:00,760
Speaker 1: you guys in terms of communication in those moments?

218
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:05,720
Speaker 3: I think, you know, he he probably said that as.

219
00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:09,160
Speaker 4: An expression of like he's been aggressive.

220
00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:10,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, right, play caller.

221
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:13,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, But I think that's the fun within it, and

222
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:17,640
Speaker 4: you know, you just want to execute for him because

223
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:23,000
Speaker 4: you know, maybe this typical down, you're probably not looking

224
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:25,360
Speaker 4: for him to say a blitz or whatever it is,

225
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:27,080
Speaker 4: and so when he does call that, you like, dang,

226
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:30,640
Speaker 4: that's a little different, but let's go get it done.

227
00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:33,440
Speaker 4: So it's kind of funny within the game, like just

228
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:37,240
Speaker 4: hearing the dialogue between us, but if anything, we just

229
00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:38,920
Speaker 4: we want to come through for him.

230
00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:40,840
Speaker 1: So I looked it up and I told you this

231
00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:43,240
Speaker 1: in the locker room earlier that last year, you bailed

232
00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:45,520
Speaker 1: into the deep half into cover two according to Pro

233
00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:47,480
Speaker 1: Football Focus eight times, and it was all on third

234
00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:49,960
Speaker 1: or fourth down, and against Miami you did it three

235
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:51,840
Speaker 1: times and it was all on first or second down.

236
00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:53,280
Speaker 3: Yeah.

237
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:53,839
Speaker 4: I uh.

238
00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:58,120
Speaker 3: And he's saying deep half as in like I'm going

239
00:11:58,160 --> 00:11:59,280
Speaker 3: back to safety.

240
00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:01,000
Speaker 2: So yeah, like say, you're playing safety in that.

241
00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:03,360
Speaker 4: Exactly, so, and I really like it because it's a

242
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:04,959
Speaker 4: different point of view from back there.

243
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,800
Speaker 3: So it's a different type of urgency.

244
00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:10,120
Speaker 4: You got to have a little bit more patience because

245
00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:13,480
Speaker 4: obviously I'm at the last line of defense. Maybe the

246
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:16,160
Speaker 4: ball isn't on me as fast, you know, from being

247
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:19,079
Speaker 4: at Nickel. Now I can be back and I'm watching

248
00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:22,720
Speaker 4: everybody else on my team work and the ball isn't

249
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,360
Speaker 4: up on me as fast as I'm used to. So

250
00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:28,360
Speaker 4: it's it's a pretty good Uh, it's a pretty good

251
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:31,040
Speaker 4: way of looking at the game. And I don't know,

252
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:32,600
Speaker 4: it's kind of like a video game in my head,

253
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:35,560
Speaker 4: the way I can see the game from one point

254
00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:36,880
Speaker 4: of view and then I can get back to another

255
00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:39,960
Speaker 4: point of view, which makes it really fun.

256
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:42,000
Speaker 3: But you know, it's just something to.

257
00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:44,280
Speaker 4: Switch it up. You want to play chess, not checkers.

258
00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:47,880
Speaker 4: And obviously with those things, I gotta be on it.

259
00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 4: My teammates got to be on.

260
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:53,559
Speaker 3: It because the communication within an invert or.

261
00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,560
Speaker 4: Just an offset down, we all got to be clued

262
00:12:57,559 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 4: into what's going on and where each other is going

263
00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:03,880
Speaker 4: to be at. Yeah, he wouldn't be calling those things

264
00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:07,080
Speaker 4: if he didn't have that trust within us. And you know,

265
00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:09,720
Speaker 4: I want to wear that position, that role with honors.

266
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:12,800
Speaker 4: So I just want to execute for the coach first

267
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:13,679
Speaker 4: and foremost.

268
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:16,319
Speaker 1: And by the way, from reading Amanda Foster story on

269
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:17,679
Speaker 1: Colts dot Com, I did learn that you were an

270
00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 1: awfully good safety in college at a senior year.

271
00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:24,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was solid. So I played corner for three years.

272
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:26,600
Speaker 4: And my last year playing corner, which is my junior

273
00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:29,719
Speaker 4: year All American, we had two safeties go down going

274
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:32,920
Speaker 4: into my senior year at spring track spring practice, and

275
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:34,880
Speaker 4: I asked to coach role, you know, if I can

276
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:35,679
Speaker 4: go back to safety.

277
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:38,560
Speaker 3: Did that and ended up becoming an All American at

278
00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:39,199
Speaker 3: safety as well.

279
00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:42,000
Speaker 4: So it's you got to be coachable within that. It

280
00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:44,640
Speaker 4: just doesn't happen overnight. You just can't correlate your skills

281
00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:47,400
Speaker 4: and abilities to a new position and things work out.

282
00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:51,120
Speaker 4: You gotta transfer like your humility first and your ego

283
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:54,800
Speaker 4: because you know, doing new things it takes some patience

284
00:13:54,880 --> 00:14:00,640
Speaker 4: and just just that area where you just don't always

285
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:02,760
Speaker 4: know the answers. So you got to, you know, rellow

286
00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:05,520
Speaker 4: on your teammates and coaches to to kind of hang

287
00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:07,000
Speaker 4: with you for a little bit so you can gain

288
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:09,400
Speaker 4: that trust and comfort and then you can go out

289
00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:10,280
Speaker 4: there and just make plays.

290
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:12,320
Speaker 2: One more thing on lose defense.

291
00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:15,839
Speaker 1: And it's it's a groven Buck question, like when when

292
00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:17,800
Speaker 1: a new coordinator comes in and they're trying to implement

293
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:19,640
Speaker 1: their their scheme and stuff. You know, they're trying to

294
00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:23,560
Speaker 1: figure out the players they've got. You know, from playing

295
00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:26,040
Speaker 1: with these guys for six years, now what the kind

296
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:28,160
Speaker 1: of impact that they have on the interior of a defense.

297
00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:30,320
Speaker 1: So when you've got now a new coordinator coming in,

298
00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:33,560
Speaker 1: what does it do for an entire defense to have

299
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:37,360
Speaker 1: those two guys who are not just reliable players, but

300
00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:40,360
Speaker 1: are really freaking good players in the middle of that

301
00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:41,240
Speaker 1: defensive front.

302
00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:45,360
Speaker 4: I think it probably brings a sense of relief because

303
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:48,040
Speaker 4: it's in it's lead to become a passing game, you've

304
00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:50,520
Speaker 4: got to first stop the run, and the other team

305
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:53,040
Speaker 4: they want to run the ball today can't. So having

306
00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:56,840
Speaker 4: those two guys that are you know, primarily run stoppers,

307
00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:58,720
Speaker 4: and then they earn the right to run rush to

308
00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:04,320
Speaker 4: pass it. We we uh, why did I look over her?

309
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:07,920
Speaker 4: We we have a lot of confidence in the interior

310
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:11,840
Speaker 4: of our defense and that that being Grover and DeForest,

311
00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:14,800
Speaker 4: then we can now rush to pass here and have

312
00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:16,320
Speaker 4: a lot more fun within the game.

313
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:19,760
Speaker 1: Really cool thing, uh I saw down on the field

314
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:22,760
Speaker 1: after the game. You had your grandmother there. Yeah, you

315
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:25,480
Speaker 1: had a lot of family there, and you you posted

316
00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:28,080
Speaker 1: on ig that you flew your grandmother in this game

317
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:29,880
Speaker 1: is their first game at Lucas Oil Stadium.

318
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:32,600
Speaker 3: That's right, first time in Indiana, you got.

319
00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:34,960
Speaker 1: A strip sack, the first time she sees you play

320
00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:37,360
Speaker 1: in a home game, first time she's to Indiana. You're

321
00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:42,360
Speaker 1: adopted home state. Now, how special was all that for you?

322
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:45,680
Speaker 1: It's someone who I know is so deeply rooted in

323
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:46,360
Speaker 1: his family.

324
00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:48,320
Speaker 4: It's like it's like one of those things when you

325
00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:49,760
Speaker 4: go off to college. I mean, obviously I went to

326
00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:51,720
Speaker 4: college in my hometown, but it's like you go to

327
00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:56,120
Speaker 4: a new place and then your parents come see you

328
00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:58,120
Speaker 4: and then they're like, oh, like this is where you live.

329
00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:01,400
Speaker 4: These are your friends, this is the community coves you like,

330
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:04,560
Speaker 4: you know, she's she's able to see like who I

331
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:07,280
Speaker 4: am as a young man now, and usually she see

332
00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:09,760
Speaker 4: me on the road. So usually I'm going back home

333
00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:13,760
Speaker 4: and I'm used to all these environments. But now she

334
00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:16,240
Speaker 4: can come into my world in my environment and see how,

335
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:19,920
Speaker 4: you know, how I really lived my life in my space,

336
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:22,480
Speaker 4: and so you know, just seeing the happiness and joy

337
00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:26,600
Speaker 4: and just a comfort that that kind of brought her.

338
00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:30,040
Speaker 4: It was it was very priceless. And that's something that

339
00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:33,960
Speaker 4: I'll remember forever. And I never thought that my grandmother would,

340
00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:36,560
Speaker 4: you know, make the trip, Like I never even thought

341
00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 4: about asking her, but just because like she's never even

342
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:42,640
Speaker 4: traveled like that in her life. So I don't know,

343
00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:44,760
Speaker 4: it really hit home. You know, my grandmother, she was

344
00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:48,400
Speaker 4: like she's like a mother to me because my mother

345
00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:52,520
Speaker 4: she worked my entire life, and so when it came to,

346
00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:54,680
Speaker 4: you know, doing my homework at the school, when it

347
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:59,240
Speaker 4: came to being presentable, being a young man, being mannerable,

348
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:04,480
Speaker 4: my grandmother taught me those things, and it just came

349
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:07,560
Speaker 4: for a circle for me. You know, at the National Anthem,

350
00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:11,520
Speaker 4: I got a little emotional because I had realized, like dang,

351
00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:14,520
Speaker 4: like my grandmother she's never been here before, and you know,

352
00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:18,359
Speaker 4: my my mother's brother and sister, my little cousin, and

353
00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:21,600
Speaker 4: then my grandmother's caretaker was here. And so just being

354
00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:25,520
Speaker 4: able to kind of live in that moment and cherished

355
00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:29,600
Speaker 4: you know, this past weekend, it really it really just

356
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:30,119
Speaker 4: it struck me.

357
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:31,240
Speaker 3: It struck it struggle both.

358
00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:35,439
Speaker 4: So, yeah, I just want to keep going for my family,

359
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:38,680
Speaker 4: my supporters, you know, they're in my corner. They're so supportive,

360
00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:41,800
Speaker 4: and and uh, yeah that this past weekend was really

361
00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:42,359
Speaker 4: special to me.

362
00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:45,560
Speaker 1: I would encourage everyone who's listening or watching this to

363
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:47,240
Speaker 1: go read the story that Amanda Foster wrote on you.

364
00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:48,959
Speaker 2: It's up at cults dot com right now. It is.

365
00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:52,720
Speaker 1: It's a really interesting window into kind of what what's

366
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:56,040
Speaker 1: still motivating you, but also your backstory of you know,

367
00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:59,359
Speaker 1: showing up to the practice field, quitting coming, you know,

368
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:02,359
Speaker 1: getting coaxed back in as a high schooler. But I

369
00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:04,560
Speaker 1: wanted just to ask you about like the idea of

370
00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:06,720
Speaker 1: a legacy because you know, a Manda kind of touched

371
00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:09,440
Speaker 1: on it in the article. But like, you've accomplished a lot.

372
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:11,520
Speaker 1: You've been a pro bowler, two time ALTERI paint Man

373
00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:14,240
Speaker 1: of the Year award winner, regarded around the league as

374
00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:17,760
Speaker 1: one of the best slot corners in the NFL. You're

375
00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:19,760
Speaker 1: in year nine in the NFL, in a league where

376
00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:21,280
Speaker 1: a lot of guys don't even make it past year

377
00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:25,399
Speaker 1: one or even week one. What still drives you? What

378
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:26,840
Speaker 1: still drives kennymore the second?

379
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:27,320
Speaker 2: Right now?

380
00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:31,680
Speaker 3: Uh Man, it would have to be legacy.

381
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:34,640
Speaker 4: You know, I've talked about it a couple of years

382
00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:38,040
Speaker 4: ago with my teammates and coaches. You know, you you

383
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:41,200
Speaker 4: come in too, You know, once you leave college and

384
00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:46,719
Speaker 4: you you kind of have goals you set for yourself,

385
00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:50,960
Speaker 4: so so I'll take you back. So after college playing

386
00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:53,560
Speaker 4: more football, was able to go to the New England Patriots.

387
00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:59,119
Speaker 4: Obviously just as a professional in general, my my purpose

388
00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:03,119
Speaker 4: my wife was retiring my mom and and getting her

389
00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:07,480
Speaker 4: a house one day, and like and doing that, you

390
00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:11,160
Speaker 4: kind of check the bosses, and whenever you check those

391
00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:14,640
Speaker 4: bosses of what you've always wanted to accomplish, you kind

392
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:17,359
Speaker 4: of come to a dead end of like what do

393
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:20,760
Speaker 4: I do next? And you just got to figure out

394
00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:23,120
Speaker 4: what else is out there that it's going to drive

395
00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:24,840
Speaker 4: me to, you know, keep doing what I love.

396
00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:28,680
Speaker 3: And it was never the money. It was never.

397
00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:32,359
Speaker 4: You know, going to the Pro Bowl, it you know,

398
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:35,280
Speaker 4: those things just wasn't on my bucket list whenever I

399
00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:36,000
Speaker 4: came into the league.

400
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:42,120
Speaker 3: And so I was just suggest like, whenever you do

401
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:42,960
Speaker 3: check those.

402
00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:46,040
Speaker 4: Bosses of why you do something, you just got to

403
00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:49,679
Speaker 4: revert it to legacy, because I think that'll just be

404
00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:54,080
Speaker 4: the and all be all of like, how can you

405
00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:55,760
Speaker 4: just push it the next level? How can you be

406
00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:59,239
Speaker 4: your best? How can you like the torch and give

407
00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:03,600
Speaker 4: it to somebody else? So that's just been my rule

408
00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:09,360
Speaker 4: of success is I'm on a way to I want

409
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:10,960
Speaker 4: to leave a great legacy. I want to be in

410
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:12,400
Speaker 4: a ring of honor. I want to do all these things.

411
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:15,080
Speaker 4: But on my way of doing that, my journey doing that,

412
00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:17,680
Speaker 4: I want to reach down and pick up a rookie.

413
00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:19,439
Speaker 4: I want to reach down and go back to my

414
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:23,200
Speaker 4: high school, reach down and go to you know Carna Ritter, Yeah,

415
00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:26,639
Speaker 4: and do those things because you know, you never know

416
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:29,919
Speaker 4: who's watching, You never know who you can touch. You know,

417
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,639
Speaker 4: you just never know who you can somehow motivate, you

418
00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:35,120
Speaker 4: know what I mean. And it doesn't always have to be,

419
00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:36,080
Speaker 4: you know, a footballer.

420
00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:36,800
Speaker 3: It can be.

421
00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 4: Somebody who just they're just eager to tap into their dream.

422
00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:45,600
Speaker 4: They're eager to you know, make their parents happy. They're

423
00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:48,800
Speaker 4: eager to gain their own self confidence, or they want

424
00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:51,280
Speaker 4: to conquer their own self esteem. And you know, I

425
00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:53,520
Speaker 4: was just one of those kids where, you know, I

426
00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:56,639
Speaker 4: didn't know where life was really able to take me.

427
00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:00,199
Speaker 4: You know, it started off with just working hard to

428
00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:03,920
Speaker 4: provide for my fam, to provide for my mother. And

429
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:08,560
Speaker 4: then once I kind of got the they hang it at,

430
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:11,200
Speaker 4: I wanted to make sure that I leave the game

431
00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:13,439
Speaker 4: better than I found it. I want to leave the

432
00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:15,280
Speaker 4: secondary better than I found it. I want to leave

433
00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:17,920
Speaker 4: Indianapolis better than I found it. So and I think

434
00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:21,120
Speaker 4: that all goes back to you know, legacy character, doing

435
00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:23,840
Speaker 4: the right thing, and uh, just having that integrity.

436
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:25,439
Speaker 2: It's a great way to end that.

437
00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:28,600
Speaker 1: Interview from Valdosta State cornerback number twenty three, Kenny Moore

438
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:30,080
Speaker 1: of the second thanks for joining me here on the pod.

439
00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:32,480
Speaker 2: All right, back here on the Colt Show.

440
00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:35,120
Speaker 1: It is time for the Colt Show Mailbag presented by

441
00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:38,920
Speaker 1: Microsoft Surface co Pilot plus PC achieving greatness with real

442
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:41,280
Speaker 1: time AI insights from the field to the front office.

443
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:45,280
Speaker 1: Microsoft Surface co Pilot plus PCs are transforming how the

444
00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:48,879
Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts win. All right, our question comes from Steve

445
00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:52,720
Speaker 1: Klute from Brownsburg. He asks why did our second round

446
00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:56,119
Speaker 1: pick not play? So Steve is referring to defensive end

447
00:21:56,160 --> 00:22:00,640
Speaker 1: JT Twoey Molowau, who is a healthy scratch four week one,

448
00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:05,760
Speaker 1: And it's a pretty simple answer. Actually, Louan Arumo was

449
00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:08,960
Speaker 1: asked about this. Shane Steichen was asked about this this week.

450
00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:14,000
Speaker 1: What lou Arumo said is really just the Colts have

451
00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:16,639
Speaker 1: really good defensive line depth, and what they decided to

452
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:20,879
Speaker 1: do against Miami was dressed five defensive tackles. So that

453
00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:26,840
Speaker 1: Steforest Buckner, Grover Stewart, Neville Gallimore excuse me ated, Tommy

454
00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:29,960
Speaker 1: wa at a bare and Eric Johnson the second. Those

455
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:32,679
Speaker 1: are the five guys they dressed a defensive tackle. They

456
00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:36,880
Speaker 1: then dressed four defensive ends Quitty pay Layatu Latu, Samson,

457
00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:41,320
Speaker 1: Ebicom and Taekwon Lewis. So you're probably not dressing ten

458
00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:44,680
Speaker 1: defensive linemen for a game, just given you have needs

459
00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:46,639
Speaker 1: on special teams, you have other needs elsewhere. I mean,

460
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:49,919
Speaker 1: the Colts called up Austin agak Is, a linebacker. He

461
00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:53,040
Speaker 1: played on special teams, and you know that's kind of

462
00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:55,600
Speaker 1: where you're looking for those sort of bottom of the

463
00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:58,879
Speaker 1: active roster type guys, is, hey, can you contribute on

464
00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:02,360
Speaker 1: special teams. Here's the thing that I want to emphasize

465
00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:05,959
Speaker 1: about j T. Twoey moloaw is when the Colts drafted him,

466
00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:09,800
Speaker 1: they drafted him, you know, believing he can make an

467
00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:13,679
Speaker 1: impact and you need defensive line deps certainly, but I

468
00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:16,040
Speaker 1: think you draft him not just with an eye on

469
00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:18,639
Speaker 1: this year. You know, if he plays twenty percent of

470
00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:21,719
Speaker 1: the snaps this year, you know, and makes an impact

471
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,280
Speaker 1: with those, that's a good thing. But next year you

472
00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:27,440
Speaker 1: have some decisions to make if you're kind of zooming out.

473
00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:29,679
Speaker 1: Quod He pays a free agent, Samson eb becomes a

474
00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:32,119
Speaker 1: free agent, and Taekwon Lewis is a free agent. So

475
00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:35,680
Speaker 1: maybe you retain all three of those guys, but if

476
00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:37,560
Speaker 1: one of them were to leave in free agency, or

477
00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:39,600
Speaker 1: two leave in free agency, or all three leave in

478
00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:43,920
Speaker 1: free agency, which is something you can you can't totally control.

479
00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:46,040
Speaker 1: You have a second round pick who you took and

480
00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:48,840
Speaker 1: you liked, stepping up in twenty twenty six to be

481
00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:52,679
Speaker 1: opposite Layatu Latu there. So that's kind of the the

482
00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:56,560
Speaker 1: baseline expectation that I had coming into this year for

483
00:23:56,600 --> 00:24:00,320
Speaker 1: tuy Molowau. Now, he did play deep into some preseason games,

484
00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:04,280
Speaker 1: which is sometimes an indication that he needs a little

485
00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:06,760
Speaker 1: bit more work, But I also think, you know, you

486
00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:08,520
Speaker 1: might to play deep into those games because the Colts

487
00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:11,439
Speaker 1: are like, well, we got four defensive ends. We're all

488
00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:14,240
Speaker 1: Vets ahead of him, you know, especially a guy like

489
00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:18,320
Speaker 1: Taekwon Lewis, who is so valued within that defensive line

490
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:22,480
Speaker 1: room because he's he's versatile, he's smart, he's reliable, you know,

491
00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:25,480
Speaker 1: a guy who the Colts really really do value there.

492
00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:28,200
Speaker 1: And you know, just looking at some snapcounts here for

493
00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:31,840
Speaker 1: defensive end, it's funny the Colts only really had thirty

494
00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:35,280
Speaker 1: eight non garbage time defensive snaps in this entire game. Like,

495
00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:39,840
Speaker 1: thirty eight snaps over an entire game is crazy, but

496
00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:42,200
Speaker 1: that's how many. Like you had three guys play all

497
00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:44,760
Speaker 1: those snaps, those cambine them, Nick Cross and Zire Franklin.

498
00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:47,400
Speaker 1: So out of those thirty eight snaps at the end,

499
00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:51,400
Speaker 1: Laatsu Latu played thirty one, Quidy pay Paid played twenty eight,

500
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:55,439
Speaker 1: Taekwon Lewis played twenty three, and Samson Ebacom played eighteen.

501
00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:59,240
Speaker 1: So not a whole lot of room there for Tuimolowau

502
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:04,880
Speaker 1: to crack that rotation. Having said that the Colts could

503
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:08,480
Speaker 1: ultimately in week two say well, actually maybe we need

504
00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:11,840
Speaker 1: that other guy in Tuoey moloaw who maybe could kick

505
00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:14,359
Speaker 1: inside a little bit on you know, some of our

506
00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:17,160
Speaker 1: our third down not even third down I should get,

507
00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:18,520
Speaker 1: by the way, I need to get that out of

508
00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:22,480
Speaker 1: my vocabulary, the third down pressure package, because every down

509
00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:24,879
Speaker 1: could be a pressure package for Lou Anarumo, So just

510
00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:27,439
Speaker 1: in terms of the pressure packages, maybe we want to

511
00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:29,280
Speaker 1: get that guy who could kick inside as a d

512
00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:32,080
Speaker 1: ND do some stuff as a you know, with loops

513
00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:35,280
Speaker 1: and stunts and games there. So we'll see at detackle

514
00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:38,960
Speaker 1: Toforest Buckner played thirty two snaps, Grover Stewart played twenty six,

515
00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:42,440
Speaker 1: at a Bare played thirteen, Gallimore played thirteen. Eric Johnson

516
00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:45,520
Speaker 1: played seven, So we'll see. And you know, the other

517
00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:49,040
Speaker 1: thing Louannarumo emphasized is that he loves what he's seeing

518
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:49,520
Speaker 1: out of J. T.

519
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:50,240
Speaker 2: Twoey moloiw.

520
00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:51,760
Speaker 1: This is kind of a numbers game right now, and

521
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:55,000
Speaker 1: the Colts have a crowded defensive line room. And if

522
00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:57,639
Speaker 1: you're saying, hey, we want more detackles in this game,

523
00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:00,720
Speaker 1: maybe because you're looking at to Forrest Buckner, Grover Stewart

524
00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:04,000
Speaker 1: and not anticipating you only have thirty eight real snaps

525
00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:07,200
Speaker 1: to play in a game and you're gonna need a

526
00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:09,600
Speaker 1: you know, an at a bar a a Galamora Johnson

527
00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:12,680
Speaker 1: to take on some of those snaps for Stuart and Buckner.

528
00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:15,520
Speaker 1: Maybe you do say, yeah, we need a little bit

529
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:17,879
Speaker 1: more there, So we'll see where that goes. It's not

530
00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:20,480
Speaker 1: something I'm like super concerned it with, but something that

531
00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:22,520
Speaker 1: is notable because usually you take a guy in the

532
00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:25,399
Speaker 1: second round, you expect him to play almost right away,

533
00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:27,240
Speaker 1: and the Colts did not get that out of JT.

534
00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:28,000
Speaker 2: Twoom all a while.

535
00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:30,399
Speaker 1: But again, when you factor in all those things, not

536
00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:32,160
Speaker 1: something I'm super concerned about.

537
00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:33,760
Speaker 2: Good question from Steve.

538
00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:35,800
Speaker 1: Remember you can submit your questions to the Cult Show

539
00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:39,800
Speaker 1: Mailbag on Colts dot com, Slash Mailbag on Twitter or

540
00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:43,160
Speaker 1: x or Instagram, get in my dms there or right

541
00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:47,080
Speaker 1: here in the YouTube comments. All right, before we get

542
00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:49,480
Speaker 1: out of here, a couple of things that I'm really

543
00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:53,399
Speaker 1: interested in for Week two. Now that we've got some

544
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:57,880
Speaker 1: actual tape, we've got some like real football to talk

545
00:26:57,920 --> 00:26:59,960
Speaker 1: about with this team, all right, I want to start here.

546
00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:06,960
Speaker 1: I was just as encouraged by the debuts of Mac

547
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:10,600
Speaker 1: Gonzalvez and Tanner Bordolini as that interior duo. Like I

548
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:12,560
Speaker 1: was like just as encouraged that as I was like

549
00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:15,119
Speaker 1: Tyler Warren's debut. You go back and you turn on

550
00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:18,479
Speaker 1: the tape. Those two guys kicked some butt up front,

551
00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:20,720
Speaker 1: and that's against a good Miami front.

552
00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:22,280
Speaker 2: I don't want us to lose.

553
00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:24,840
Speaker 1: In the thirty eight thirty three to eight that the

554
00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:27,000
Speaker 1: Dolphins have guys who have a lot of skins on

555
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:29,399
Speaker 1: the wall, Matthew jude On and Bradley Chubb. Jalen Phillips

556
00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:31,679
Speaker 1: when he's healthy, and he was healthy is a really

557
00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:34,680
Speaker 1: good edge rusher. And then on the interior, Zach Seeler

558
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:37,200
Speaker 1: just got paid a ton of money deservedly so because

559
00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:40,320
Speaker 1: he's a really good defensive tackle. And I thought those

560
00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:43,520
Speaker 1: two guys handled what Miami threw at them really well,

561
00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:46,560
Speaker 1: not just from a just like a straight up blocking standpoint,

562
00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:51,000
Speaker 1: but Daniel Jones in Week one was the most blitzed

563
00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:55,120
Speaker 1: quarterback in the NFL per Pro Football Focus. That put

564
00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:57,720
Speaker 1: a lot of stress on Bordolini and Gonzalvez. And there's

565
00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:00,359
Speaker 1: one play in particular that like, he got to be

566
00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:02,119
Speaker 1: out of my chair when I was watching the film

567
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:06,160
Speaker 1: on Monday. It's the deep ball to Alec Pierce where

568
00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:08,960
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones. That's a great throw. He put it in

569
00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:10,959
Speaker 1: a spot that only Alec can make a play on it,

570
00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:15,840
Speaker 1: perfect accuracy, thirty something yards downfield. The way he got

571
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:17,919
Speaker 1: there was with a clean pocket, and he got a

572
00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:21,320
Speaker 1: clean pocket against Miami sending a seven man pressure with

573
00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:24,720
Speaker 1: some disguises within it. So on this play, I'm gonna

574
00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:27,520
Speaker 1: focus on Bordolini and Gonsalvez here they both combo block

575
00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 1: defensive tackle, and Gonsalves's eyes the whole time are on

576
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:35,800
Speaker 1: number twenty five, the linebacker, Tyrol Dodson. He's on Dodson

577
00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:39,320
Speaker 1: the whole time, and Dodson's kind of waiting, waiting, waiting. Okay,

578
00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:41,160
Speaker 1: where's the gap going to open up? And then he's

579
00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:44,240
Speaker 1: gonna come through it. There's a the C gap between

580
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:46,800
Speaker 1: the tackle and the tight end. So between Braden Smith

581
00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:51,920
Speaker 1: and Moalai Cox to the right, Ifatu malafan Wu comes

582
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:55,040
Speaker 1: on through that, the dolphin's safety. And then as soon

583
00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:57,120
Speaker 1: as malfon Wu blitz as Maali Cox as to go

584
00:28:57,200 --> 00:28:59,959
Speaker 1: pick him up, durogl trees on. I think it's Phillips

585
00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:03,080
Speaker 1: on the outside, so Moe picks him up, and then

586
00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:06,400
Speaker 1: Dodson's like, I got this, Like we got a combo

587
00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:08,560
Speaker 1: block here. I'm gonna race through this gap. I'm gonna

588
00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:10,160
Speaker 1: get a free run at Daniel Jones. He's not gonna

589
00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:13,520
Speaker 1: get this pass off. Mackensalves bam head comes around, he

590
00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:17,360
Speaker 1: gets off the combo block, he gets over there really

591
00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:20,200
Speaker 1: athletically because Mackensolves is a very good athlete. He gets

592
00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:24,280
Speaker 1: over there athletically, he stonewalls Dodson. Daniel Jones has a

593
00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:29,080
Speaker 1: picture perfect pocket to throw through to throw from. And

594
00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:32,840
Speaker 1: I know we've talked a lot about situation with Daniel Jones,

595
00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:35,320
Speaker 1: and you know what was the situation with the New

596
00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:37,320
Speaker 1: York Giants versus what it could be with the Colts.

597
00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:39,560
Speaker 1: Like that one play right there where you've got a

598
00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:42,200
Speaker 1: guard who has played one snap of guard in the

599
00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:45,440
Speaker 1: NFL and his entire life making that heady of a play.

600
00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:49,240
Speaker 1: That tells me Mackensalves is a very smart player. He

601
00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:51,720
Speaker 1: is very well coached, he is very athletic, and he

602
00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:56,200
Speaker 1: is very strong. Those are all really encouraging things from him.

603
00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:58,720
Speaker 1: And then Tanner BORDERLINI like in the run game some

604
00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:00,560
Speaker 1: of the stuff he was doing where the Colts are

605
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:03,200
Speaker 1: using his athleticism and his strength, Like, I am really

606
00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:06,120
Speaker 1: encouraged what I saw out of him. Look, I mean,

607
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:09,160
Speaker 1: you can an offensive line sometimes is only as good

608
00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:11,680
Speaker 1: as its weakest link, and the Colts did not have

609
00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:14,640
Speaker 1: a weak link on Sunday against the Dolphins, against a

610
00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:17,760
Speaker 1: team that has good edge rushers and was throwing a

611
00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:21,720
Speaker 1: ton of pressure at them because they weren't getting home

612
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:25,840
Speaker 1: with therefore, so they were like, well, Anthony Weaver, who's

613
00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:27,480
Speaker 1: already a blitz heavy coach, was like, well, We're just

614
00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:29,640
Speaker 1: gonna throw whatever I can at them. And then the

615
00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:33,440
Speaker 1: other part of that is Daniel Jones got the Colts

616
00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:37,160
Speaker 1: consistently in the right protections. There was not a single

617
00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:39,000
Speaker 1: time I can think of that he had a free

618
00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:41,080
Speaker 1: runner just like coming at him and he had to

619
00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:43,160
Speaker 1: take care of it because he didn't get the protection right.

620
00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:45,800
Speaker 1: And the one time he got sacked, I think it

621
00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:49,720
Speaker 1: was Judon maybe, or it was Judon or it was

622
00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:53,959
Speaker 1: Chubb got Bernard Ryman, that's gonna happen. Like Briley, Chubb's

623
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:56,000
Speaker 1: a really good player. The Dolphins traded a first round

624
00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:59,200
Speaker 1: pick for him, that's gonna happen. So but now Week two,

625
00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:07,320
Speaker 1: that Denver front another mean, physical, fast, just productive front.

626
00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:10,520
Speaker 1: And on the interior, Zach Allen is like the best

627
00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:13,280
Speaker 1: defensive tackle no one talks about outside of Grover Stewart

628
00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:18,320
Speaker 1: personally speaking, So how are they going to handle that challenge?

629
00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:22,240
Speaker 1: How are they going to handle another really good interior guy?

630
00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:24,880
Speaker 1: And then Nick Benito, who just got paid a ton

631
00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:27,240
Speaker 1: of money deservedly so had thirteen and a half sacks

632
00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:29,600
Speaker 1: last year. What Denver is going to do with him?

633
00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:33,160
Speaker 1: And then Vance Joseph. They're Denver's defensive coordinator, one of

634
00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:35,840
Speaker 1: the best decoordinators in the NFL, A guy who's gonna

635
00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:37,600
Speaker 1: throw a ton of different stuff at the Colts. It's

636
00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:39,200
Speaker 1: gonna be up to Daniel Jones to handle it. And

637
00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:41,600
Speaker 1: those two guys in the interior. I'm really interested in

638
00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:45,080
Speaker 1: how they hold up again now in Week two. Encouraging debut,

639
00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:47,160
Speaker 1: Now it's time to build on it. The other thing

640
00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:50,600
Speaker 1: I'm looking for is I mean, look, I kind of

641
00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:55,160
Speaker 1: talked about this Denver defense. They made life so hard

642
00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:58,880
Speaker 1: on the Tennessee Titans in Week one. Like the clips

643
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:00,360
Speaker 1: I saw, I saw like a cut up a cam

644
00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:02,520
Speaker 1: Wards all twenty two. It looked like he played pretty well,

645
00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:06,560
Speaker 1: but there were some drops by Tennessee's receivers. And then

646
00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:10,720
Speaker 1: Patrick Sirtan the second wiped out Calvin Ridley in this game.

647
00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:13,360
Speaker 1: So I was like, okay, well, how is Denver gonna

648
00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:17,320
Speaker 1: use Sirtan in this game against a Colts offense that

649
00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:20,600
Speaker 1: is versatile? And you know, okay, if you take one

650
00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:23,720
Speaker 1: guy out which Sirtan is in't a racer, Like he

651
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:25,720
Speaker 1: won Defensive Player of the Year last year for a

652
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:29,120
Speaker 1: reason because you couldn't throw the ball on him. But

653
00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:31,400
Speaker 1: so when the Colts played the Broncos last year, I

654
00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:34,960
Speaker 1: was just quickly running through some film and Shane Stikeen

655
00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:38,680
Speaker 1: did a really good job kind of it didn't look

656
00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:40,960
Speaker 1: like Sirtan traveled with anyone in that game. Now, I

657
00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:44,320
Speaker 1: don't know if that was because the Broncos didn't want

658
00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:46,360
Speaker 1: him to or that's just kind of how they deploy

659
00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:50,440
Speaker 1: him usually. But when Sirtan did get an opportunity, he

660
00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:53,480
Speaker 1: usually was covering Alec Pierce. Pierce got hurt in that game,

661
00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:55,160
Speaker 1: he exited, I think it was toward the end of

662
00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:59,200
Speaker 1: the second quarter, and then you saw Cirtan on a

663
00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:01,640
Speaker 1: lot of wide receivers. But the other thing that Shane

664
00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:03,400
Speaker 1: Stikeen did was he would line like two tight ends

665
00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:05,440
Speaker 1: up to one side of the formation and then have

666
00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:08,000
Speaker 1: two receivers on the other side. And it was like, well,

667
00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:11,320
Speaker 1: if Sirtan's locking the front side of a play no

668
00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:14,200
Speaker 1: matter what, and you throw a couple of tight ends

669
00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:16,520
Speaker 1: out there, you get your receivers. At Josh downs had

670
00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:19,520
Speaker 1: a really impactful start to that game. Maybe there's some

671
00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:24,600
Speaker 1: opportunities there to because you're never going to scheme out Sirtan.

672
00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:27,520
Speaker 1: Like if if it's third and long and you need

673
00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:29,080
Speaker 1: a guy to go get make go make a play

674
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:32,880
Speaker 1: and Sirtan's on him, like Jamar, he could be on

675
00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:35,800
Speaker 1: Jamar Chase and he's going to make a play. So

676
00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:38,160
Speaker 1: I just I think that's going to be a really

677
00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:41,440
Speaker 1: interesting interesting thing to watch, is where Sirtan is how

678
00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:44,160
Speaker 1: the Colts counter that. But that feeds into like this,

679
00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:47,440
Speaker 1: the versatility this Colts offense. Where last week it was

680
00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:49,960
Speaker 1: a big Tyler Warren and Michael Pittman junior game. Is

681
00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:51,800
Speaker 1: this week going to be a big Josh Downs game.

682
00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:53,880
Speaker 1: Is this week going to be a big Jonathan Taylor

683
00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:57,240
Speaker 1: game where you know, or big game for the Colts

684
00:33:57,320 --> 00:34:00,960
Speaker 1: running the ball, because if den is going to match

685
00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:05,520
Speaker 1: Nickel personnel to the Colts twelve, which is two tight ends,

686
00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:08,319
Speaker 1: that's an advantage for the Colts to run the ball

687
00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:11,080
Speaker 1: if they're Last week, Miami played a lot of base

688
00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:13,640
Speaker 1: to the Colts twelve, and the Colts said, We're just

689
00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:15,439
Speaker 1: going to pass it. I mean, the first five plays

690
00:34:15,480 --> 00:34:18,080
Speaker 1: of the season were all passes and it worked. It

691
00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:20,040
Speaker 1: got the Colts down to the Dolphins eleven yard line.

692
00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:23,279
Speaker 1: Will will the Colts be able to run the ball

693
00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:24,839
Speaker 1: in this game if Denver is going to play nickel

694
00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:28,000
Speaker 1: and will they be able to use their versatility to

695
00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:31,000
Speaker 1: still be effective in the passing game, but just maybe

696
00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:34,160
Speaker 1: avoiding Sir Tan as best as you can. And then

697
00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:37,600
Speaker 1: on for the Colts defense, which obviously was awesome in

698
00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:39,480
Speaker 1: Week one, and I set that thing up, by the way,

699
00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:42,000
Speaker 1: if you watched last week's podcast, I set it up

700
00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:46,200
Speaker 1: that Miami offense. I know they had like just rotten

701
00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:49,319
Speaker 1: vibes last week, but like when Toua played last year,

702
00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:52,120
Speaker 1: they were good. They were top ten and pretty much everything,

703
00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:57,120
Speaker 1: and they were awful. The Colts defense made life hell

704
00:34:57,560 --> 00:35:00,080
Speaker 1: onto a tongue of v low in that game. To

705
00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:02,320
Speaker 1: look at what bo Nicks did so last year against

706
00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:05,560
Speaker 1: the Colts, bow Knicks said a season high, career highline

707
00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:07,440
Speaker 1: for him as a rookie and interception. He threw three

708
00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:10,880
Speaker 1: picks in that game. He went twenty to thirty three

709
00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:12,640
Speaker 1: for only one hundred and thirty yards. He did have

710
00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:14,920
Speaker 1: three touchdowns. Those kind of came as the game went

711
00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:16,840
Speaker 1: on and the Colts sort of lost control of that

712
00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:22,800
Speaker 1: game after let's just say some stuff happened. It was

713
00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:25,759
Speaker 1: the second lowest passer rating of his career for Boonix going,

714
00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:29,400
Speaker 1: you know, at least at that point. And then against

715
00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:31,759
Speaker 1: the Titans on Sunday in Week one, bow Knicks had

716
00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:35,520
Speaker 1: he had some issues. That Denver offense had some issues

717
00:35:35,560 --> 00:35:37,840
Speaker 1: outside of an RJ. Harvey run that went for fifty

718
00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:41,520
Speaker 1: yards and a kind of fifty to fifty contested catch

719
00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:43,800
Speaker 1: the court and Sutton made in the end zone for

720
00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:45,839
Speaker 1: the only touchdown the entire game.

721
00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:46,560
Speaker 2: I think.

722
00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:51,640
Speaker 1: Denver after week so, Denver threw Week one twenty fifth

723
00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:54,480
Speaker 1: and EPA per play twenty ninth in success rate, twenty

724
00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:57,479
Speaker 1: fourth in scoring drive percentage, thirty first in passing yards

725
00:35:57,520 --> 00:36:00,520
Speaker 1: per attempt, twenty fifth in explosive pass rate.

726
00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:02,719
Speaker 2: And I hate doing the.

727
00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:04,880
Speaker 1: Like, if you take this one big runout, like, what

728
00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:07,160
Speaker 1: does it look like? Because explosive runs and big runs

729
00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:09,399
Speaker 1: matter a lot. But if you take that one RJ.

730
00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:13,080
Speaker 1: Harvey run out, Denver averaged three point five yards per

731
00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:17,080
Speaker 1: carry on twenty nine attempts against the Titans. I happen

732
00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:18,880
Speaker 1: to think the Tennessee Titans defense is pretty good I

733
00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:22,640
Speaker 1: like Denard Wilson, their coordinator, a lot, but this right here,

734
00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:26,640
Speaker 1: like Denver's offense, at least in one week at home,

735
00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:31,279
Speaker 1: was not a super scary unit. Having said that, Sean

736
00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:33,480
Speaker 1: Payton's a great head coach, Sean Payton is a scary

737
00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:36,240
Speaker 1: head coach. They have some guys. I mean, Harvey obviously

738
00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:39,080
Speaker 1: showed some burst. Sutton is a really good go up

739
00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:41,200
Speaker 1: and get it guy in fifty to fifty balls. And

740
00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:43,800
Speaker 1: you know, we'll kind of see where Tarvarius Ward Senior

741
00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:45,920
Speaker 1: is this week, kind of going through the concussion protocol.

742
00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:48,480
Speaker 1: But if he's not able to go, that would be

743
00:36:49,239 --> 00:36:51,839
Speaker 1: a significant loss for the cult secondary in this game.

744
00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:55,040
Speaker 1: But like my question is just what's lou Anarumo able

745
00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:58,400
Speaker 1: to do to confuse bo Nicks, to get him off

746
00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:00,839
Speaker 1: his first read like he did with two and maybe

747
00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:03,760
Speaker 1: get him outside the pocket and then try to scramble

748
00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:05,880
Speaker 1: his decision making a little bit. The thing that I

749
00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:08,480
Speaker 1: that I just loved about lose defense in general, and

750
00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:11,960
Speaker 1: we kind of talked about this with Kenny was like

751
00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:15,440
Speaker 1: it wasn't like and it's like I said in the

752
00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:17,640
Speaker 1: mailbag question, like you can't just say it's a third

753
00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:20,080
Speaker 1: down pressure package. They're doing some funky stuff on third down.

754
00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:23,680
Speaker 1: He did funky stuff on first down. On first and ten,

755
00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:26,440
Speaker 1: he's got Kenny bailing into the dpath into a cover

756
00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:31,640
Speaker 1: two and it's just like stuff like that is designed

757
00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:33,960
Speaker 1: to make a quarterback go oh, hold on what am

758
00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:37,320
Speaker 1: I seeing? And the moment you start thinking so split second,

759
00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:39,399
Speaker 1: that's when cam Binem gets a pick. That's when Grover

760
00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:41,239
Speaker 1: Stewart gets in your face so cam Binum can get

761
00:37:41,239 --> 00:37:43,320
Speaker 1: a pick. That's when DeForest Buckner hits a move and

762
00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:44,640
Speaker 1: all of a sudden you got pressure and you got

763
00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:46,040
Speaker 1: to go, oh no, what do I have to do here?

764
00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:48,160
Speaker 1: You get outside the pocket to make a bad decision.

765
00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:52,560
Speaker 1: Can this Colts defense keep it up? I think a

766
00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:55,400
Speaker 1: lot of Sean Payton. I think you would be stupid

767
00:37:55,440 --> 00:37:57,239
Speaker 1: to not think a lot of Sean Payton and what

768
00:37:57,360 --> 00:37:59,040
Speaker 1: he can do. And look at what Denver did in

769
00:37:59,080 --> 00:38:01,640
Speaker 1: week one and say it's gonna be better because it's

770
00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:06,400
Speaker 1: Sean Payton. But for what I saw from this Colts

771
00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:09,000
Speaker 1: defense in week one, can you keep it up? And

772
00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:12,200
Speaker 1: can you do it again against a team that's got

773
00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:16,479
Speaker 1: a really smart head coach, a quarterback who is gonna

774
00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:18,439
Speaker 1: get the ball to the right place at the right time.

775
00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:21,000
Speaker 1: It's got a good receiver, got a good running game,

776
00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:23,040
Speaker 1: and then probably more than anything, Denver's got a really

777
00:38:23,080 --> 00:38:27,480
Speaker 1: good offensive line. Through all that, Denver in Week one

778
00:38:27,560 --> 00:38:30,120
Speaker 1: was still only They were tenth in the NFL and

779
00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:32,800
Speaker 1: pressure rate allowed. They were only one sack allowed. The

780
00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:35,239
Speaker 1: Broncos last year were six in pressure rate allowed and

781
00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:38,440
Speaker 1: they were second in total sacks allowed in twenty twenty four.

782
00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:40,360
Speaker 1: So it's gonna be tough to get to not you know,

783
00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:42,080
Speaker 1: maybe you get a little bit of pressure on Botex,

784
00:38:42,080 --> 00:38:43,520
Speaker 1: It's gonna be tough to bring them down on this game.

785
00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:44,840
Speaker 1: So what can you do on the back end to

786
00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:45,560
Speaker 1: kind of confuse him?

787
00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:45,759
Speaker 3: Right?

788
00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:47,520
