So let's go over some of the exciting 21 00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:49,520 Speaker 1: the guys that are making a difference in this camp 22 00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:50,840 Speaker 1: that you guys are excited about. 23 00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:53,959 Speaker 3: We gotta start with Josh Downs, right, Larah. Yeah, that's 24 00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:54,760 Speaker 3: the starting point here. 25 00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:57,360 Speaker 4: The thing is is, it's been since day one likes 26 00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:00,560 Speaker 4: so consistent, and I think it would be something that might. 27 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 5: Be easy for people to like overlook. 28 00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:05,319 Speaker 4: If you haven't been out here every day, Because to me, 29 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:08,880 Speaker 4: what's impressive is the cumulative product that he has put 30 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:11,360 Speaker 4: out from the very beginning of camp. You just see 31 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:13,680 Speaker 4: all of that off season work that they put in 32 00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:18,480 Speaker 4: together coming to fruition between both Anthony Richardson and Josh Down. 33 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 3: Something Jim Bob Cooter said the day too to kind 34 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 3: of build on that is like you can tell when 35 00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:24,840 Speaker 3: a players had a great off season when they walk 36 00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:27,280 Speaker 3: in the door. Yeah, oh, you know from OTAs or 37 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:29,240 Speaker 3: from training camp and he was talking about Downs or 38 00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:31,440 Speaker 3: he's like, you could tell he had a very intentional 39 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:34,600 Speaker 3: plan this off season and he's like a lot of 40 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:36,480 Speaker 3: guys don't have that, a lot of young guys don't 41 00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:39,080 Speaker 3: have that quite yet. He's like, joshkimmen in great shape. 42 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:41,399 Speaker 3: You can tell just that the mental acuity that he 43 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:45,720 Speaker 3: has has been a real asset to him out there. 44 00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 3: And then just on top of that, like I think 45 00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 3: the point you make too about how you got to 46 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 3: be here every day, like you might show up if 47 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 3: you showed up for one practice, he didn't see him 48 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:55,080 Speaker 3: make a play, you might be like, oh, where's Josh Downs, 49 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:56,960 Speaker 3: But like when you see it every day and you 50 00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:00,400 Speaker 3: see how he's working every day going against Kennymore. 51 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:04,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, which is a great way to sharpen yourself, right. 52 00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:06,840 Speaker 4: I mean, that's such a good matchup for a young 53 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:09,520 Speaker 4: receiver to have to deal with that. You know, a 54 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:12,519 Speaker 4: guy who is such a problem in coverage like Kenny 55 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,360 Speaker 4: Moore is, And that's something that you know now too. 56 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:18,200 Speaker 4: They've picked up on one another's tendencies going back to 57 00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:20,320 Speaker 4: last season when they were in these same positions. But 58 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:23,960 Speaker 4: Josh has ascended so much in the last twelve months 59 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:26,280 Speaker 4: that Kenny knows, okay, this is this is a much 60 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:28,720 Speaker 4: more difficult matchup. I have a greater respect now maybe 61 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 4: than I did a year ago. And you know, he's 62 00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 4: giving Josh all he can handle and Josh still makes play. 63 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:37,360 Speaker 4: So you know what a great precursor for the regular 64 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:41,160 Speaker 4: season this is knowing the amount of attention that Josh 65 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:43,920 Speaker 4: Downs is going to start commanding from opposing defenses in 66 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 4: addition to all of the other playmakers. And I think 67 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 4: it's so funny because what was one of the conversations 68 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:50,960 Speaker 4: we heard over the course of the spring early part 69 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 4: of the summer. Do the Colts have enough playmakers so 70 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,440 Speaker 4: they have enough depth a receiver that was one of 71 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,960 Speaker 4: those like looming things, And now those questions aren't being 72 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 4: asked in camp. 73 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:01,360 Speaker 5: I've gotten to this point. 74 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:03,240 Speaker 3: I think that's such a good point because if you're 75 00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:05,359 Speaker 3: out here again, if you're out here every day, you're 76 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 3: seeing Josh Downs make places. You're obviously seeing it from 77 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:10,520 Speaker 3: Michael Pittman junior, but then Alec Pierce and Nady Mitchell. 78 00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 3: They're like rotating days where like each of them is like, Okay, 79 00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:16,080 Speaker 3: today was a Nady Mitchell day. He had some plays, 80 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 3: or I'm standing next to Bill Brooks and I'm just 81 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 3: asking him about like how he is able to create 82 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 3: so much separation on some like comeback routes and stuff, 83 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:24,679 Speaker 3: and like you're seeing it out of Ady Mitchell. And 84 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:25,840 Speaker 3: then you go and you have a day where Alec 85 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:28,320 Speaker 3: Pierce makes like two incredible leaping catches and you're like, yep, 86 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 3: that's still right there. And then on top of all 87 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 3: of that, Lara like it's hard to tell this because 88 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 3: it's you're not tackling, but every single time, I don't 89 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 3: know if You've picked up on this every single time 90 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 3: someone gets asked about Jonathan Taylor, it's this grin, it's 91 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 3: this smirk. It's like mm hmm, yeah, we we know 92 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 3: what's coming, and maybe the rest of the league doesn't exactly. 93 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 4: And you know, just to kind of piggyback on that conversation, 94 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,880 Speaker 4: you know, we've spotlighted the receivers, spotlighted, of course, the 95 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 4: running back room, headlined by Jonathan Taylor. But I think 96 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 4: that Trace Sermon has had one of the most consistent 97 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 4: and strong camps. I think he's really solidified that number 98 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 4: two spot in the run game. But in terms of 99 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 4: pass catchers and playmakers, I think Kylon Granson has really 100 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 4: started to put himself on the radar in these last 101 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,719 Speaker 4: few practices in terms of kind of wondered, what's this 102 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:18,240 Speaker 4: tight end rotation going to be? 103 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 5: And I thought that this was this. 104 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:21,880 Speaker 4: Was really one of the strongest days that we have 105 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:24,159 Speaker 4: seen from Kylon thus far. 106 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 3: In k Yeah, he had he had a touchdown. I 107 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 3: guess it is one of those disputed ones. 108 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 2: I was right. 109 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 3: It was like the ones where the entire defense is 110 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:34,360 Speaker 3: like now we would have tackled in and the entire 111 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 3: offense is like, no, he would have got in. That 112 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:37,679 Speaker 3: was also that was the throw the day from Anthony 113 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:39,159 Speaker 3: Richards and it was kind of in a red zone 114 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 3: drill and Anthony kind of he got to Granson through 115 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,839 Speaker 3: his progression through a dart right in between some defenders 116 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 3: and yeah, I mean maybe maybe Grandson would have been 117 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:50,120 Speaker 3: tackled shy the goal line, maybe he wouldn't have. 118 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 4: Well, never Harry made the catch, Like that was kind 119 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:54,039 Speaker 4: of what I was just looking for. Is you know 120 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:57,920 Speaker 4: that connection was there? So yeah, ideally, yeah, sure you'd 121 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 4: like to see it come to you know, fruition a touchdown. 122 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:01,720 Speaker 4: But I thought what we saw from it was enough 123 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:03,680 Speaker 4: for me to be like, connections work. 124 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:05,480 Speaker 3: I think you just kind of though, just to kind 125 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 3: of dial it back on the weapons thing, I think 126 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:09,360 Speaker 3: you just kind of hit the nail on the head. 127 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 3: That Like one of my impressions globally, you sure do 128 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:17,280 Speaker 3: you do a lot of you know, handiwork around the house, right, 129 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:20,919 Speaker 3: that's all Tucker leaves that to you. Yeah, throw a 130 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:25,920 Speaker 3: hammer like Rosie the riveter am over here, But just generally, 131 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,119 Speaker 3: like I think one of the impressions that I've felt 132 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 3: two weeks into camp is like, yeah, the weapons. I'm 133 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:33,359 Speaker 3: not worried about. Not worried because I think the bet 134 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 3: here that the Colts made this offseason was that dropping 135 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 3: Anthony Richardson back into that group was going to elevate 136 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 3: the play of everyone, and I think we have seen that. 137 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,240 Speaker 3: And then additionally, obviously Ady Mitchell coming in, that's that's 138 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:46,920 Speaker 3: a different thing there. And then on top of all that, 139 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 3: it's not just Anthony being back there, but you have 140 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:52,320 Speaker 3: the Anthony Jonathan Taylor tandem. And I asked Zire Franklin 141 00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 3: about this yesterday, like, hey, you're you're the guy who's 142 00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 3: seen it probably the most of anyone, sure, one of 143 00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 3: the only people on the planet who has had to 144 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 3: defend Anthony Richardson and Jonathan Taylor in the backfield. And 145 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:04,279 Speaker 3: he said, it's almost like this game of like Tom 146 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:07,119 Speaker 3: and Jerry, where like He's trying to chase down JT, 147 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:10,240 Speaker 3: but Shane's putting him and EJ in these tough positions 148 00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:12,840 Speaker 3: all the time, and he's just like, sometimes you guess 149 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:15,400 Speaker 3: because that's all you can do, and then you're inevitably 150 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 3: begin to guess wrong. And it's like, ah, man, you're 151 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:19,280 Speaker 3: just so excited to see what this is going to 152 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 3: look like come September eighth, because I don't think the 153 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 3: only people who know what it might look like are 154 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:26,599 Speaker 3: probably forty four and forty five out there for the 155 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:27,919 Speaker 3: Colts defense as linebackers. 156 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, and you know, the other questions that are starting 157 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 4: to be answered that I think people are going to have, 158 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 4: you know, more ease with going into and maybe more 159 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:39,719 Speaker 4: peace with going into the regular season is the secondary. 160 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 5: And you know how much we have. 161 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:45,039 Speaker 4: Seen, especially like I mean, Julian Blackman has had like 162 00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:47,719 Speaker 4: an all star type of a week, and you know, 163 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:50,280 Speaker 4: we've talked about Kenny doing the Kenny things. I think 164 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:52,160 Speaker 4: there are a lot of guys like Jalen Jones has 165 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 4: had good, a really. 166 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,720 Speaker 3: Good, really nice PPU today and then you. 167 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,719 Speaker 4: Know Nick Cross and Rodney Thomas both had plays today. 168 00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 4: So I think that what we have seen, and I 169 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:05,520 Speaker 4: think it's really been for me in the last over 170 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:08,320 Speaker 4: the course of the last five days, where this defense 171 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 4: has kind of made the offense uncomfortable in a really 172 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:14,800 Speaker 4: good way, Like they've really tested the offense in some situations. 173 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 4: And I think that these early battles in which the 174 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 4: defense has somewhat had to kind of level up to 175 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 4: where the offense started camp has created such a good 176 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:26,119 Speaker 4: level of competition, and I think that this is really 177 00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 4: what you want to see going into a preseason game week. 178 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 1: Before we go into others some hot names in camp. 179 00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:34,120 Speaker 1: This I mean, we're less than a week away from 180 00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 1: our first preseason game. 181 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:36,560 Speaker 2: I want to talk about that. 182 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 3: I mean, it's days. 183 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, another guy who a lot of people are talking about. 184 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 1: Obviously the first defensive player off the board in recent draft, 185 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 1: a lot too against Denver. Obviously, we want to see 186 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 1: what he is. What is Shane Steichen's early and in 187 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 1: the week before this preseason game, our starters going to play. 188 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 3: So Shane said on Sunday that he was going to 189 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 3: make that decision in the middle of the week. Okay, 190 00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:58,440 Speaker 3: so we'll see what it is this year. Last year, 191 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 3: the Colts did play their starter in the first preseason 192 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 3: game against Buffalo. I don't remember series. I think it 193 00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 3: was the first series. Maybe it was a little longer 194 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 3: for the offense. I think Anthony maybe got two series 195 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 3: or so. So I think you you could potentially see that. 196 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 3: We'll kind of get the final determination from Shane later 197 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 3: this week. But for these rookies especially and some of 198 00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:24,120 Speaker 3: these young guys. Just getting those jitters out. Yeah, just 199 00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 3: getting the going through a game day, going through the 200 00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 3: warm ups at Lucas Oil Stadium, coming out of the tunnel, 201 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:32,440 Speaker 3: getting on the sidelines, just getting your routine down. I 202 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:36,120 Speaker 3: think does matter for these guys. In addition to the 203 00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 3: first time you hit someone, you know, maybe it's a 204 00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:40,959 Speaker 3: good thing. If it's not against Houston, well. 205 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 4: And I think too, to me, I would like to 206 00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 4: see them line up against somebody else in a different 207 00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 4: color jersey before Arizona gets in here with joint practices 208 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:51,480 Speaker 4: because you have a gauntlet of a next week. 209 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 5: So within seven. 210 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 4: Days you play preseason game number one at Lucas Oil 211 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:58,000 Speaker 4: Stadium against the Denver Broncos. Then you have an off day, 212 00:08:58,040 --> 00:08:59,400 Speaker 4: then you you know, come back. I think it's an 213 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:02,000 Speaker 4: off day, come back, yeah, walk through whatever, and then 214 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 4: Arizona's here on Wednesday. You have two evening joint practices 215 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:09,640 Speaker 4: head to head against Arizona both Wednesday and Thursday. You 216 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,640 Speaker 4: get Friday, and then Saturday night you're back at it 217 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 4: at Lucas Oil Stadium. So within the course of seven 218 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 4: days you have two games and two. 219 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:17,079 Speaker 2: Joint WIE practices. 220 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:18,959 Speaker 3: And then on top of that, Okay, so Sundays and 221 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 3: off day, Monday, I travel to Cincinnati. Tuesday, you got 222 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:24,600 Speaker 3: the joint practice at the Bengals. Yeah, Wednesday's and off day, 223 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:26,880 Speaker 3: and then Thursday's the game against the Bengals. So really, 224 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:28,280 Speaker 3: I mean this is going to go by quick. 225 00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's real. 226 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 4: Colft weeks are just crazy, and that's why I just 227 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:36,160 Speaker 4: think that you would like to have that game experience. 228 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 4: So then you go into the joint practices with Arizona 229 00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 4: having a better idea of Okay, this is what I 230 00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 4: need to dial in. 231 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:44,080 Speaker 5: These are the things that I need to sharpen. 232 00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 4: These are kind of the things that I need to 233 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 4: carry from you know, one game into the next. This 234 00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:50,800 Speaker 4: is how I can use these joint practices to get 235 00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:53,679 Speaker 4: myself ready for regular season week number one. 236 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:55,440 Speaker 3: Yeah. I think on top of that too, this is 237 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:57,960 Speaker 3: where you're going to see the team really come together 238 00:09:58,080 --> 00:09:59,800 Speaker 3: in terms of what they're going to hone in on 239 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:02,880 Speaker 3: or week one. Yeah, where you're you know, uh, Gus 240 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 3: probably kind of mentioned it today that there the cults 241 00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 3: are through the install phase, just like you know, a 242 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 3: couple of little things here and there. But now this 243 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 3: is where you get into the details. This is where 244 00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:14,840 Speaker 3: you really figure out what are we good at on offense, 245 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 3: what are we good at on defense? And these this stretch. 246 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:19,480 Speaker 3: I mean, you're not gonna get a ton of it 247 00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 3: in the preseason games just because you're not gonna run 248 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:24,079 Speaker 3: your scheme. You're gonna run it vanilla, You're gonna it's 249 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:25,959 Speaker 3: a lot of one on one matchup stuff like that. 250 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 3: But those are still valuable. The joint practices and then 251 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:32,520 Speaker 3: just the next couple of days of practice out here 252 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:35,280 Speaker 3: before the Cardinals come in. That's where you're gonna see 253 00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:37,079 Speaker 3: the Colts start to form an identity. 254 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:39,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, it gets a little meaty, yeah, you know in there. 255 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, and you build on that then for when camp break. 256 00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:46,120 Speaker 3: So you got those two weeks between the end of 257 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:49,560 Speaker 3: the Bengals game and then the start of the regular season. 258 00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 3: This this is this is like go time. Now. 259 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 4: I really love by the way this is looking down 260 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:56,360 Speaker 4: a little bit, but I love that preseason game being 261 00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 4: on a Thursday night and having kind of that weekend 262 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:01,920 Speaker 4: after and how having that time. I really like the 263 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 4: way that that so far the last two preseasons have 264 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:07,680 Speaker 4: kind of been made maybe more than that even but 265 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 4: at least, you know, the last two with Shane, the 266 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:11,719 Speaker 4: way that they've kind of fallen into place, with the 267 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 4: way that you've conducted joint practices both home and road, 268 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:18,160 Speaker 4: and then the preseason games with that also two home 269 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:18,959 Speaker 4: preseason games. 270 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:20,800 Speaker 2: Yes, for sure, it's one hundred miles an hour. 271 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:23,200 Speaker 1: The next couple of weeks there right there and coming up, 272 00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:25,400 Speaker 1: Colleen Woll from the NFL Network and Lara had a 273 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:27,680 Speaker 1: chance to sit down and talk about this coach team. 274 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:29,439 Speaker 1: But when we talk about one hundred miles an hour, 275 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 1: I do have to talk about Leachu Latu. Just give 276 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:33,960 Speaker 1: me your your first couple of weeks. What you think 277 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 1: this guy brings to this defense and how big of 278 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:39,880 Speaker 1: a not never having this guy in that type of 279 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:42,360 Speaker 1: defense before, this type of player in that defense. Rather, 280 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:43,440 Speaker 1: how's it looking for you? 281 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:46,040 Speaker 3: I think the thing that stands out to me Jeffrey 282 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 3: is like just the motor that he has a gust 283 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 3: be exactly right, like NonStop. 284 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 5: Lara, NonStop. Yeah. 285 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:55,840 Speaker 3: It's he's had plays where like it's been on the 286 00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:57,960 Speaker 3: back side of a play that it's been like a 287 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,839 Speaker 3: boot action away from him and he's been chasing down 288 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:04,760 Speaker 3: Richardson or Flacco, whoever it's been and Gus Bradley mentioned 289 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:09,000 Speaker 3: it today that Okay, a lot of sacks in the 290 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:12,520 Speaker 3: NFL come from effort, they come from the motor, they 291 00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 3: come from You might get stymied to start the playoff, 292 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:17,840 Speaker 3: like Gus Bradley said, but then all of a sudden, Okay, 293 00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 3: quarterback holds it for three seconds or three and a 294 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 3: half seconds, and all of a sudden, he's right there. Okay, Well, 295 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 3: if you're playing with good effort like Layatu Latu has been, 296 00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 3: you're gonna get a sack and all of a sudden, boom, 297 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:30,600 Speaker 3: there's a big play. That stuff is so valuable and 298 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 3: to see it from a rookie like Gus has kind 299 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:34,760 Speaker 3: of talked about this a little bit, and I think 300 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:38,200 Speaker 3: it's a really interesting point that sometimes rookies, because there's 301 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 3: so much going on in their head of you're just 302 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:46,000 Speaker 3: swimming through terminology installs, you know, knowing that, hey, you 303 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:47,720 Speaker 3: got to keep up with your team, just all this 304 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:49,679 Speaker 3: stuff that sometimes you don't play with the kind of 305 00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:52,600 Speaker 3: effort that you might play with later on in your career. 306 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:54,840 Speaker 3: That is not a concern for number ninety seven. 307 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:57,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, I can't imagine that. He's a guy that you 308 00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 4: just feel his speed on the field, like when he 309 00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 4: is out there, like it's just wild. And I was telling, 310 00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 4: there's a great group, shout out to Mike Wells who 311 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:07,320 Speaker 4: was out here with the group from from IU and 312 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:10,040 Speaker 4: now you journalism school, and I'm talking a few of 313 00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:12,360 Speaker 4: his students, and I was like, just watch like this 314 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:14,920 Speaker 4: this snap. Don't watch the quarterback, don't watch the receivers. 315 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:19,319 Speaker 4: Just watch ninety seven. And like the force, the ferocity 316 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:22,560 Speaker 4: with which he blows off of the edge, and you know, 317 00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:26,960 Speaker 4: it's it is just insane. The burst in his body. 318 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:29,200 Speaker 4: That's what it is. I think where you see, you know, 319 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:32,760 Speaker 4: the separation that makes him different from other edge rushers, 320 00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:33,480 Speaker 4: maybe that you have. 321 00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 3: You know who else is having a good camp kind 322 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:37,480 Speaker 3: of along those lines, because I've watched a lot of 323 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:38,520 Speaker 3: it is Bernard Raimel. 324 00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 5: Oh, okay, Berard Ryman. 325 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:41,400 Speaker 2: Because I've watched a lot of this was. 326 00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:43,439 Speaker 5: Gonna be mine. I just but I said this, I've 327 00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:45,360 Speaker 5: gone on record with that. I just love that man. 328 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:49,840 Speaker 3: But Bernie, Bernie is the camp he's having has been 329 00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:52,120 Speaker 3: really good because those battles he's had a lot to 330 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:55,840 Speaker 3: he's winning. You know, it's been good, but it's been 331 00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:57,640 Speaker 3: back and forth, but he's been winning a lot of them. 332 00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 3: And it's not because Laotu Latu is this unpolished rookie. 333 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 3: It's because I think Bernard Rayman's having a really freaking 334 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:04,800 Speaker 3: good camp. 335 00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:07,240 Speaker 4: I was having this conversation too, because there have been 336 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 4: over the course of the last week or so, a 337 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:11,320 Speaker 4: lot of national media in and you know, one thing 338 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:13,839 Speaker 4: that I was kept getting brought up. I'm sure you've 339 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:16,480 Speaker 4: had this question too, is the national narrative is can 340 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:19,440 Speaker 4: Anthony Richardson stay healthy? And I was said, yeah, he can, 341 00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:22,160 Speaker 4: And I said, because like he's not a reckless player. 342 00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:24,320 Speaker 4: First and foremost, he and Shane like have a plan 343 00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:27,040 Speaker 4: on like using his legs. He considers it his superpower, 344 00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:29,160 Speaker 4: but not forcing things. And I don't think Anthony's ever 345 00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:31,480 Speaker 4: been a guy to force things that don't need you know, 346 00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 4: that aren't there that you know he doesn't need to. 347 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:37,720 Speaker 4: But I said that aside, what's going to keep Anthony 348 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:40,680 Speaker 4: Richardson healthy through these next empties is the off look 349 00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 4: at this offensive line? 350 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:42,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, and it's this. 351 00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:45,400 Speaker 4: Entire unit that has now played together for three years, 352 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:49,440 Speaker 4: and you look at the leaps that Bernard Ryman had 353 00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:52,720 Speaker 4: in consecutive years so that's what I said. I think 354 00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:57,640 Speaker 4: that people are overblowing some some of that concern because 355 00:14:58,080 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 4: they're not looking at the fact, like I think every 356 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:01,880 Speaker 4: one thinks about, yeah, CLT have good offensive flying, they 357 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 4: have Quentin Nelson, but it's like, no, this is not 358 00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:08,800 Speaker 4: just quent Nelson. It's the entire what quintet, quintet is 359 00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:11,240 Speaker 4: that five pentet, quint. 360 00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:14,200 Speaker 3: Quin quint I think court No, well, quartet is four, 361 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 3: so quintet. Kevin Connor's behind the camera is saying. 362 00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 6: Yeah, I guess this is back to school, like yeah, we. 363 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 5: Got blue in the background. Hello Blue. 364 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 4: So yeah, just that entire fivesome if you will, with 365 00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 4: Ryan Kelly, Quentin Nelson, Braden Smith, Will Fries and just 366 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:35,760 Speaker 4: hinging on all of that is kind of the anchor 367 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:36,600 Speaker 4: on that left side. 368 00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:39,120 Speaker 3: Most injuries to quarterbacks, I know it wasn't case with 369 00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 3: Anthony last year, but most injuries to quarterbacks happened in 370 00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:43,920 Speaker 3: the pocket. And this is a pocket that is going 371 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 3: to be good. And Anthony, by the way, his great 372 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:48,480 Speaker 3: pocket feel. So it's it's gonna to me that's a 373 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 3: good combination for not being like, you know, clutching something 374 00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:55,720 Speaker 3: worried that Anthony's gonna get hurt. 375 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:57,840 Speaker 1: Hey, we got to talk about the quarterback position.

Thanks for bringing 495 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:23,240 Speaker 3: that up. Dwight had a right time. 496 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:26,119 Speaker 1: All the greats from that decade of excellence, led by Peyton, 497 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:27,760 Speaker 1: Manning and Marvin and Reggie, they were. 498 00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:28,160 Speaker 3: All out there. 499 00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:31,440 Speaker 2: So really that was so special. But back to this team. 500 00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:33,240 Speaker 3: Back to sorry but I don't have to because you 501 00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:33,840 Speaker 3: were there. 502 00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:35,720 Speaker 1: And you had it was a special Thanks for asking. 503 00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:37,400 Speaker 1: But back to this team. When you talked, you talked 504 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:39,359 Speaker 1: a little bit about this, the scary part that I 505 00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:41,920 Speaker 1: don't think we talk about enough and even national media. 506 00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:43,280 Speaker 2: JJ, maybe I'm wrong. 507 00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:46,360 Speaker 1: This the threat and the just the look of this 508 00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 1: running game with Anthony Richardson over center, with Jonathan Taylor 509 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:54,560 Speaker 1: behind you, with this offensive line that's been concrete, Bernie 510 00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:57,560 Speaker 1: coming on, like you said, so strong, it's really dangerous. 511 00:20:57,600 --> 00:20:59,160 Speaker 1: So if you're looking at it as a football fan, 512 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:01,439 Speaker 1: it's really a danger saying that I'm saying, like not 513 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:04,000 Speaker 1: two thousand yards, but my gosh, if they want to, 514 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:06,119 Speaker 1: they could run this guy at for fifteen hundred plus. 515 00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 3: So remember when Shane Stiken got here and he was 516 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 3: asked what his philosophy is, Yeah, he said, passed to 517 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 3: score run away. I think you could see a little 518 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:17,680 Speaker 3: bit of tweaking with that potentially, where he's a guy 519 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:20,119 Speaker 3: who's always going to form his offense. He's going to 520 00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:23,440 Speaker 3: scheme around the talent that he has at his disposal. 521 00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 3: And the Colts have a truly a dynamic backfield with 522 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:30,720 Speaker 3: Taylor and Richardson back there. So I pulled up some 523 00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:32,760 Speaker 3: numbers just I was curious, like what the offense was 524 00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 3: last year in terms of the run game. So the 525 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:37,480 Speaker 3: Colts ran the ball at the thirteenth highest rate in 526 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:39,440 Speaker 3: the NFL last year of forty one percent of their place. 527 00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:43,200 Speaker 3: They were fifteenth in explosive run rates, So runs that 528 00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:45,760 Speaker 3: generated ten or more yards they got twelve percent of 529 00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:48,480 Speaker 3: their runs got there. Their ninth and yards per attempted 530 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:50,200 Speaker 3: to four rountree sound like it? 531 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:50,680 Speaker 2: Sure? 532 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:53,520 Speaker 3: As I said that out loud, get your emodium ready 533 00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:58,040 Speaker 3: to go. Its ninth and yards per attempt at four 534 00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:01,240 Speaker 3: point three. This is where this is where I thought 535 00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:04,000 Speaker 3: it was really interesting the office. So yards before contact 536 00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:06,239 Speaker 3: is a stat that Pro Football Focus has that kind 537 00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:09,000 Speaker 3: of tells you how many yards before it's you know, 538 00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:11,160 Speaker 3: it's how many yards before you get touched beyond why 539 00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:14,720 Speaker 3: do you see? And to me, that's a measure of 540 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:16,920 Speaker 3: the offensive line and the striketh of the offensive line. 541 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 3: The Colts were sixth in yards before contact at one 542 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:22,600 Speaker 3: point five yards per before contact, but they were twenty 543 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:26,400 Speaker 3: second in yards after contact. Two point six was their average. 544 00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:29,399 Speaker 3: To me, that that gap right there, that can be 545 00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:32,480 Speaker 3: closed with a hopeful full season of Jonathan Taylor and 546 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:34,000 Speaker 3: also Anthony Richardson back there. 547 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:37,879 Speaker 4: And I mean one thing is just in watching this camp, 548 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:40,639 Speaker 4: like going back to day one when players walked in 549 00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:43,760 Speaker 4: the building and Jonathan Taylor is beaming, grinning from ear 550 00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:46,400 Speaker 4: to ear, wearing an Anthony Richardson T shirt, Like this 551 00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:50,600 Speaker 4: is a reinvigorated Jonathan Taylor. Like I was kind of 552 00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:52,159 Speaker 4: joking with pit about this, and I was like, is 553 00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:55,159 Speaker 4: this the most fun that we're seeing Jonathan Taylor have 554 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:57,680 Speaker 4: like a in a while. And I think it certainly 555 00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:00,680 Speaker 4: is because you don't have that, you know, the conversations 556 00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:03,679 Speaker 4: about needing to earn that second contract that has been extinguished. 557 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:05,600 Speaker 5: He knows who his quarterback is. 558 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:08,080 Speaker 4: He's healthy, he's healthy, he didn't have any of the 559 00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:10,439 Speaker 4: off season stuff. You have so much confidence in this 560 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 4: offensive line and now Shane having a second season with 561 00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:16,479 Speaker 4: this entire group, with the addition of of course some 562 00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:18,600 Speaker 4: of your draft picks in there. You know them, you 563 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:20,359 Speaker 4: know how to use these people. And I think that 564 00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:25,240 Speaker 4: JT has such solace in just the guidance of Shane 565 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:27,119 Speaker 4: to be like, I know he's gonna put me in 566 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:29,959 Speaker 4: the positions I need to be in. And this is 567 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,439 Speaker 4: so fun that I'm not the only one that like, 568 00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:34,800 Speaker 4: I'm not the only one. The five to two eight 569 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:37,960 Speaker 4: is a real thing. So like that that attention is 570 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:41,240 Speaker 4: not just all on him, but it's the defenses that 571 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:44,520 Speaker 4: are schematically having to account for two different rushing. 572 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 3: Threat We've never seen JT in in a backfield like this. 573 00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:50,160 Speaker 3: The closest is twenty one with Carson went There aren't 574 00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:53,000 Speaker 3: many blackfield well right, that's the thing, you know, pretty 575 00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:55,520 Speaker 3: hard to find, but twenty one. The closest thing was 576 00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:57,639 Speaker 3: with Carson where they would run a little bit of 577 00:23:57,640 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 3: the zone read stuff, but when it was working, it 578 00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:02,399 Speaker 3: was it was but usually, I mean Carson didn't keep 579 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 3: it all that much right. It was usually, you know, 580 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:06,600 Speaker 3: and that wasn't what his strength was. He could do it, 581 00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:08,960 Speaker 3: but it wasn't like a big part of his game. 582 00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:12,600 Speaker 3: With Anthony Richardson. It goes back to what I was 583 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:14,399 Speaker 3: talking about with Zia Franklin making kind of the like 584 00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:17,600 Speaker 3: Tom and Jerry thing. We're like, you don't know on 585 00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:20,680 Speaker 3: a zone read, you have to be so honest with 586 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:24,439 Speaker 3: your your eyes, with your discipline on these plays that 587 00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 3: you can't maybe play as fast as you want to 588 00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:29,720 Speaker 3: with those two guys in the backfield when there's a 589 00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:32,400 Speaker 3: mesh point, like okay, you know, you try to maybe 590 00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:34,119 Speaker 3: get a cue or something. But like again, to go 591 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:36,480 Speaker 3: back to what z said, like you're gonna guess and 592 00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 3: you're gonna be wrong, and when you're wrong, these are 593 00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:40,680 Speaker 3: two guys who can be cash if you. 594 00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:42,640 Speaker 5: Wait for it to unfold your behind like. 595 00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:45,359 Speaker 3: You're done, you're done, your cook right, But also if 596 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:47,920 Speaker 3: you guess and you guess wrong, guess who's going twenty 597 00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:50,400 Speaker 3: thirty yards downfield before they're gonna get hit. It's gonna 598 00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:52,840 Speaker 3: be Taylor, It's gonna be Richardson. So to me, this 599 00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:55,680 Speaker 3: is where you're looking at kind of Okay, how is 600 00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:58,040 Speaker 3: this offense gonna be better from where they were in 601 00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:01,560 Speaker 3: twenty three versus twenty four? And just there are a 602 00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:04,119 Speaker 3: lot of ways, Like when we're talking about the weapons, 603 00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:06,760 Speaker 3: I think the passing game weapons have definitely been elevated. 604 00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:09,760 Speaker 3: But on the ground, I think you can see that 605 00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:11,920 Speaker 3: that I'm going to say it again, explosive run right. 606 00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:12,719 Speaker 2: Go up. 607 00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 3: I think you could see that go from being about 608 00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:19,359 Speaker 3: league average to hopefully above average, if not top ten 609 00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:23,200 Speaker 3: in the league. You know, yards per attempt is already 610 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:25,360 Speaker 3: pretty good. But the Cults were this efficient run game 611 00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:28,520 Speaker 3: last year, they weren't necessarily explosive on the ground, and 612 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 3: I think that's where you get the explosiveness, you get 613 00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 3: the yards after contact that Jonathan Taylor can bring. That's 614 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:37,760 Speaker 3: where you can see hopefully a big jump in this 615 00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:39,040 Speaker 3: offense in twenty twenty four. 616 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:39,440 Speaker 2: It's fine. 617 00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 1: I mean, just the thought of that, of that dual 618 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 1: thread of one guy, I'll torture if you don't, you 619 00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 1: know better keep your eye on this guy, Archer or 620 00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 1: the other guy. 621 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:49,879 Speaker 4: But Quintech is a group of five pe Okay, we 622 00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:53,760 Speaker 4: did it Q right right. It's like a squirrel, you know, 623 00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:55,280 Speaker 4: like really quies taking around with We. 624 00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:56,960 Speaker 1: Know what JT brings to this, we know what it is. 625 00:25:57,000 --> 00:25:58,760 Speaker 1: But just fill out that fill out that running back 626 00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:00,400 Speaker 1: room for you who if you liked so far back 627 00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:01,880 Speaker 1: led by Trey Sermon. 628 00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:05,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, I Trey Sermon, and then I think Evan Hall 629 00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:09,600 Speaker 4: has done some good things. Tyler Goodson has done good things. Yeah, 630 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:13,400 Speaker 4: I think that the I mean it's kind of been 631 00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:16,679 Speaker 4: different day to day in the situations that you have 632 00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:19,639 Speaker 4: seen guys be presented with. Like, I think it's still 633 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:22,560 Speaker 4: it's going to be a competition to watch through the preseason. 634 00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:24,879 Speaker 1: I really think Ivan Holl you know, we know what 635 00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:27,160 Speaker 1: he did at Northwestern. He led the nation in receptions 636 00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:29,919 Speaker 1: as a running back. Is he is he catching balls 637 00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:32,199 Speaker 1: in this preseason? Obviously we saw that last year. 638 00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:35,159 Speaker 3: I think I think last year, Yeah, I think you 639 00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:37,200 Speaker 3: need to see a lot out Evan Hall in the preseason. 640 00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:40,160 Speaker 3: You know you probably you don't maybe need to see 641 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:41,840 Speaker 3: a ton out of Jonathan Taylor. I don't think that's 642 00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:42,679 Speaker 3: big news or anything. 643 00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:44,320 Speaker 5: I don't know that you'll see any of Jonathan Taylor 644 00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:45,120 Speaker 5: and you. 645 00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:47,480 Speaker 3: Know what, you know, maybe maybe you get a couple series, 646 00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:49,679 Speaker 3: but even if that, yeah, not a big deal. I 647 00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:51,679 Speaker 3: think with Trey Sermon, I think you're you're kind of 648 00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:53,560 Speaker 3: at that point now, like you mentioned earlier in the pod, Larra, 649 00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:55,800 Speaker 3: I think he's probably your RB two right now. I 650 00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:58,840 Speaker 3: think he's had some good, good plays good days of practice. 651 00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:01,240 Speaker 3: He's a guy who know that the Colts brought in 652 00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:04,640 Speaker 3: last year because he had some experience with Shane and Philadelphia. 653 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:08,199 Speaker 3: He had some good moments, especially that Pittsburgh game in 654 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:10,000 Speaker 3: Week fifteen. He had a good one in a week 655 00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:13,080 Speaker 3: seventeen against the Raiders too. So I think Sermon's probably 656 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:16,359 Speaker 3: your second running back there. And then it's his competition 657 00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:18,920 Speaker 3: between Evan Hall and Tyler Goodson probably for that third 658 00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:21,720 Speaker 3: spot on this roster. I don't know if you carry four. 659 00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:24,240 Speaker 3: I think there's a lot still to be you know, 660 00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:26,959 Speaker 3: kind of shook out with this roster, but that's going 661 00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:29,000 Speaker 3: to be an important competition to watch in these training 662 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:31,840 Speaker 3: camp games or not the training the preseason games. Excuse me, 663 00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:33,920 Speaker 3: because I think both of those guys are probably gonna 664 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:35,399 Speaker 3: get quite a bit of playing time. 665 00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:36,240 Speaker 2: Gonna be fun, there's not. 666 00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:38,479 Speaker 1: The only question mark is then in a running back room, 667 00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:41,160 Speaker 1: there's tight ends and defensive backfield. We're going to bring 668 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:43,080 Speaker 1: it all to you over the next course of the 669 00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:44,360 Speaker 1: next few weeks leading up. 670 00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:48,320 Speaker 8: To the return game. Yeah, kicking off. I can't wait 671 00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:50,959 Speaker 8: for that, But were we ready?

Yeah, I was gonna say, yeah, 677 00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:02,439 Speaker 2: interesting for them. 678 00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:05,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's interesting, and they're like, we got figured we 679 00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 4: have see this looks. 680 00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:07,320 Speaker 5: You know, they're. 681 00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 2: Figuring it out. Yeah right, yeah, yeah they will be. 682 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,160 Speaker 4: They will be well apprised before we go into that game. 683 00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:14,080 Speaker 4: They'll be ready to go. But yeah, they're kind of like, 684 00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:15,840 Speaker 4: you don't see it out here in practice. So we 685 00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:17,760 Speaker 4: just got to wait for the games, figure out what 686 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:18,439 Speaker 4: people are running. 687 00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:20,080 Speaker 2: Okay, can't wait.

He is having more fun 824 00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:18,080 Speaker 4: than what we have seen in a lot of time, 825 00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:20,640 Speaker 4: just based on being healthy and knowing the guys around him. 826 00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:24,000 Speaker 4: I mean, what are your impressions of kind of really 827 00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:26,359 Speaker 4: how relaxed it's been, Like. 828 00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:29,520 Speaker 6: Practice is super sharp, really fast paced, is it? 829 00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:32,239 Speaker 7: So just because I've only been here for like one 830 00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:33,840 Speaker 7: and a half practices. 831 00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:36,000 Speaker 6: Is it does it seem like it's just looser in general? 832 00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:39,560 Speaker 7: Like because that's that's exactly what my first thought was, 833 00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:43,280 Speaker 7: that it doesn't seem like anyone is really tight and 834 00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:47,759 Speaker 7: it's like, yes, there are competitions and people are like 835 00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:50,680 Speaker 7: getting a little chippy here and there, but like that's 836 00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:53,399 Speaker 7: that feels healthy I think in general, just like the 837 00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:58,319 Speaker 7: overall the overall personality of this training camp is just 838 00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:01,520 Speaker 7: like loose and fun.

It 843 00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:19,719 Speaker 7: just seems like everything there's no drama, and that is 844 00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:22,879 Speaker 7: such an important thing for a team to start off 845 00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:26,240 Speaker 7: the year. And they have so many fun, good, talented 846 00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:28,040 Speaker 7: pieces on both sides of the ball. 847 00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:33,319 Speaker 4: And you're being a Philly girl you closely watched Shaneesdykeen 848 00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:37,560 Speaker 4: in his career with the Eagles. What to you in 849 00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:39,280 Speaker 4: watching last season unfold? 850 00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:41,120 Speaker 5: Like what did you look at and when you saw it? 851 00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:44,080 Speaker 6: And you're like, Shane Sdeiken is a head coach, this 852 00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:44,680 Speaker 6: is the team. 853 00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:45,520 Speaker 5: He's the right guy. 854 00:35:45,560 --> 00:35:47,719 Speaker 6: At what point was it like definitive? 855 00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:52,120 Speaker 7: It was when Gardner Mitchew was able to be as 856 00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:55,240 Speaker 7: successful as he was, and it felt like this team, 857 00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:59,280 Speaker 7: like everyone, they were just galvanized and you could tell 858 00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:02,799 Speaker 7: Shane Steyn really was the brain of the operation with 859 00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:05,960 Speaker 7: the way that he was scheming things up. And the 860 00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:09,400 Speaker 7: second half of the season with Jonathan Taylor, how much 861 00:36:09,480 --> 00:36:11,840 Speaker 7: he came on, how strong he was, and it was 862 00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:14,400 Speaker 7: like he got his reps in all of like the 863 00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:18,480 Speaker 7: injuries were behind him. Yes he had the thumb injury, yeah, 864 00:36:18,520 --> 00:36:22,440 Speaker 7: but it was just like watching him really accelerate and 865 00:36:22,600 --> 00:36:25,480 Speaker 7: seeing the success that this team had the fact that 866 00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:30,719 Speaker 7: they were like what fifteen yards away from winning the division, 867 00:36:31,120 --> 00:36:35,320 Speaker 7: getting into the playoffs with a backup quarterback in Gardner Minshew, 868 00:36:35,600 --> 00:36:39,520 Speaker 7: that just speaks volumes of how talented this coaching staff 869 00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:39,960 Speaker 7: really is. 870 00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:42,200 Speaker 4: And that's one thing that in having a lot of 871 00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:46,320 Speaker 4: conversations over the last few weeks, we have always known 872 00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:49,640 Speaker 4: that Shane coming in is so level. He keeps everything 873 00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:52,920 Speaker 4: very even, and Chris Ballard had talked about that even 874 00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:56,200 Speaker 4: you know before Anthony was named the starter a year ago, 875 00:36:56,760 --> 00:36:59,520 Speaker 4: that that's something that Anthony is well equipped with that 876 00:36:59,840 --> 00:37:01,960 Speaker 4: he he rides that you know, he doesn't get too 877 00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:05,279 Speaker 4: higher to do. He stays incredibly consistent, and I think 878 00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:07,440 Speaker 4: that that has put this whole group in. 879 00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:10,080 Speaker 6: A great position because it's unique when you. 880 00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:13,080 Speaker 4: Have a head coach and a quarterback, especially a second 881 00:37:13,120 --> 00:37:16,080 Speaker 4: year quarterback this young that matched that just you know, 882 00:37:16,239 --> 00:37:19,439 Speaker 4: level of steadfastness, like yeah, there's zero flinch in either, 883 00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:22,319 Speaker 4: and I think that's a pretty unique dynamic between you know, 884 00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:23,640 Speaker 4: that type of duo. 885 00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:27,480 Speaker 7: And I kind of got the impression with Anthony Richardson 886 00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:31,560 Speaker 7: that yes he is so young, and yes he doesn't 887 00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:34,760 Speaker 7: have a ton of experience in the NFL or in college, 888 00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:39,320 Speaker 7: but the way that he carries himself and this presence. 889 00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:41,080 Speaker 6: That he has, it's like, you just know. 890 00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:44,880 Speaker 7: It's like he's an old soul first of all, and 891 00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:46,440 Speaker 7: I would trust. 892 00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:48,399 Speaker 6: Him and I don't even really know him. 893 00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:52,480 Speaker 7: There's just something about him that puts everyone at ease, 894 00:37:52,560 --> 00:37:56,399 Speaker 7: like a room at ease, and his confidence is kind 895 00:37:56,400 --> 00:38:00,479 Speaker 7: of contagious, and it really is just cool to see 896 00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:03,200 Speaker 7: it in person and then feel the way that he 897 00:38:03,280 --> 00:38:05,000 Speaker 7: makes everyone else feel around him. 898 00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:07,480 Speaker 4: Well, we probably like gotta let you go because I 899 00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:09,399 Speaker 4: think you have a date over at Pittman's Farms.
