Colts got the breaks beat off them 40 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 3: in Cincinnati from a lot of different angles, and it 41 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 3: happens in the NFL. We're gonna touch on that a 42 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:53,680 Speaker 3: little bit, but I want to I want to concentrate 43 00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:55,760 Speaker 3: on where we are at right now. Like all Colts 44 00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 3: fans out there are wondering what must be done to 45 00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 3: secure a playoff birth it does start in Pittsburgh or 46 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 3: starts with Pittsburgh. Obviously, got to get that one. But 47 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 3: there's a lot of scenarios around there, JJ that how 48 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,000 Speaker 3: much the Colts can go from like a forty one 49 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 3: percent playoff contender to let's get that over fifty percent 50 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 3: or over sixty percent. Yeah, you're starting with the Saturday 51 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:16,880 Speaker 3: game against the Steelers. 52 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:19,040 Speaker 4: Well, hold on, anything can happen. 53 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:23,120 Speaker 5: Look at what happened this past weekend, even into Monday 54 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 5: night with Miami. 55 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:26,080 Speaker 4: I'm losing to Tennessee. 56 00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:28,639 Speaker 1: Come on, likely that the teams were like oh in 57 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:32,919 Speaker 1: seven sixty seven when trailing by fourteen points in the 58 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:35,920 Speaker 1: fourth quarter with three minutes ago. Yeah, yes, until the 59 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:36,720 Speaker 1: Titans won, Max. 60 00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 3: Gason, that's ridiculous in the NFL. Think isn't that great 61 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 3: players and great teams and stuff? And Tennessee did that 62 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 3: last night. That was incredible to watch. I'm just saying 63 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 3: I'm not a big Titan fan, but you know Will Levis, 64 00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 3: the rookie quarterback, and then the dunderhead plays that Mike 65 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:51,720 Speaker 3: Rabel's team was doing and then to shift that thing. 66 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:55,080 Speaker 3: I mean, it's tough to root on Tennessee when you're watching, 67 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 3: you know, a primetime game. But last night I was like, 68 00:02:57,639 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 3: all right, boys. 69 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 5: You're doing yeah, all of a sudden, now ball some 70 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 5: more is the best the team with the best record. 71 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 1: Coltcept went over them exactly. The Dolphins could get dragged 72 00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:09,079 Speaker 1: into the wild card race if they lose another game 73 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:10,640 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, then they lose to Buffalo 74 00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:13,360 Speaker 1: if Buffalo goes on a run. The point like, we 75 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:15,120 Speaker 1: have no idea what's going to happen. 76 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:19,480 Speaker 5: That's why the NFL is the greatest reality show in 77 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:19,959 Speaker 5: the world. 78 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 4: I do not need Bravo. I do not need e. 79 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 4: This is all I need. 80 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,639 Speaker 1: I do know some people who like both Bravo and 81 00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:28,040 Speaker 1: the NFL. They exist. 82 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 3: Real Housewives. Ever seen I'm sorry I have. I have? Yeah, 83 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 3: low Deck? Ever seen it? 84 00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 4: I have seen below Deck? 85 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:34,639 Speaker 5: Yeah? 86 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 4: I like below Deck. 87 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 1: I'm more. 88 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 3: I'm more. 89 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 1: I'm more Vanda Pump Rules like legitimately good. I'm like, 90 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 1: I'll watch that. It's good. 91 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 3: I want to know about never seen. 92 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 1: Uh, Summer House is great for just hating on everyone 93 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:46,920 Speaker 1: in and being like you all have miserable lives. In 94 00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:48,720 Speaker 1: my life is better than yours, even though you're richer 95 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 1: than me. Uh and then you know some other real housewives. 96 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 3: I love what you're doing. If you're a Colts fan 97 00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 3: out there and you like great, no, no, if you 98 00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 3: like Bravo, you we are the official team for the 99 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 3: Bravo viewers out there, Sory, I know what we're doing. Well, 100 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 3: we're gonna make it in Lara, I'm just saying, like, 101 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 3: when you go to this playoff scenario, what's going on 102 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 3: you just called about? It is like one game, one game, 103 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 3: you never know what's going to happen. And we've seen 104 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 3: what happens in the later weeks of this thing, but 105 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 3: starting with a home game, starting with a backup quarterback, 106 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 3: starting with all these scenarios that are going TJ watting 107 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 3: concussion protocol. I barely say must win. I mean on 108 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 3: the pregame radio show at least, but here I'm calling 109 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:28,239 Speaker 3: it must must win for your playoff channel. 110 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 5: Well, because of the crazy schedule this week, losing a 111 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,359 Speaker 5: day Tuesday becomes the typical quote unquote Wednesday. So we 112 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 5: just had open locker room, which we don't often have 113 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:40,040 Speaker 5: on a Tuesday. But what I can tell you is 114 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 5: in the conversations we were all in there. All of 115 00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 5: the guys were saying, you got to treat this like 116 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 5: a playoff game. There is that mentality in this building 117 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:51,360 Speaker 5: this week, and I actually bear with me. I kind 118 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 5: of think the I don't want see the best thing 119 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:55,720 Speaker 5: that could have happened, But I think that this team 120 00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:59,920 Speaker 5: will draw incredible motivation off of what happened in Cincinnati 121 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 5: the last Sunday. Because you looked at this stretch, they 122 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 5: were on the four game win streak. You know it 123 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:07,919 Speaker 5: was unlikely you were just gonna win out the rest 124 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 5: of the way. So if there was a game where 125 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 5: you were going to come out and not have your 126 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:16,719 Speaker 5: best brand of football in all three phases, all right, 127 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 5: you got it out of the way. Now clean up 128 00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:22,720 Speaker 5: all of those things. Figure out the ways that Cincinnati 129 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:25,720 Speaker 5: beat you. And you know, obviously the effectiveness with their 130 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:30,279 Speaker 5: run game, with screen passes, the self inflicteds which terrorized 131 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:31,240 Speaker 5: you over the course. 132 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:32,719 Speaker 4: Of that game. All right, now you know how to 133 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 4: clean it all up. Now you're ready to go. 134 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 5: And this is something I asked Shane Steichen about in 135 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 5: our conversation on Monday, was through the wind streaks, the 136 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 5: losing streaks, whatever, Shane has remained the same. So even 137 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 5: Keel treats each week the same, each day the same, 138 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 5: And I asked him how that benefits this a week 139 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:55,279 Speaker 5: like this, to be able to show that Cincinnati loss, 140 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 5: and you know that your guys aren't going to be 141 00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:00,600 Speaker 5: too low coming off of that, aren't going to get 142 00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:03,039 Speaker 5: up too high with the implications on the line. That 143 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 5: feeling and that mentality of the head coach has already 144 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 5: resonated with them through what they've endured already this season. Also, like, 145 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:12,839 Speaker 5: show me a team that's battled through more adversity this 146 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:14,280 Speaker 5: year than the Indianapolis Colts have. 147 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, a loss against the Bengals stinks. 148 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 5: You've found a way to come out and you know, 149 00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:23,120 Speaker 5: be galvanized. 150 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:24,919 Speaker 4: Through every other adversity you've had this season. Why not this? 151 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 1: That's kind of what the wild card race is turning 152 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 1: into is like who can get through these body blows 153 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,159 Speaker 1: the best? Like Cleveland Right now all of a sudden, 154 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:35,159 Speaker 1: like Joe Flacco and Jake Browning are playing like the 155 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:37,800 Speaker 1: best two quarterbacks in this wild card race, but that 156 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,839 Speaker 1: could change in a week. The Steelers, the team the 157 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:43,279 Speaker 1: Cults are playing that that's sixth, one spot ahead of 158 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 1: them currently just lost back to back games to ten 159 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 1: lost teams and the Arizona Cardinals in New England Patriots 160 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:53,040 Speaker 1: like we have the Texans just went to New York 161 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:55,960 Speaker 1: and lost thirty to six to the Jets. Would Nach 162 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 1: Wilson diced up their deal like you have no idea? 163 00:06:59,279 --> 00:06:59,720 Speaker 4: Oh no. 164 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,600 Speaker 5: You see Zach Wilson's comment afterward when he was like, 165 00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:04,480 Speaker 5: what's the worst that's gonna because he was they were 166 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:06,000 Speaker 5: asking him about like, you know, how do you come 167 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 5: out and just like play that way? 168 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 4: And he was like, well, I just think of it 169 00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 4: as what's the worst that's going to happen?

I cannot wait 189 00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:57,400 Speaker 1: to see just how the Colts respond now that Okay, 190 00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,160 Speaker 1: they on this four game winning streak, you kind of 191 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: got knocked down a little bit. How do you respond? 192 00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 1: How does this is where Shane Steichen's leadership of this 193 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 1: team can really shine? 194 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:06,760 Speaker 3: Right? 195 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:10,360 Speaker 1: Is Okay, you just lost by twenty.

Here come the Broncos, Here come the Bills, 198 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 1: Here come the Bengals. But how do you kind of 199 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 1: rise above all that? Now? 200 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:22,800 Speaker 3: Questions to be answered? JT?

When I'm talking about what he 204 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 3: means to a defense, Larra Braden Smith. We're talking about 205 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:31,239 Speaker 3: that we saw a free. 206 00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:32,840 Speaker 4: Agent could you get Juju Brents back? 207 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 3: Right?

So everything that we're saying is the same 213 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 3: thing on them. But one thing that scares me.

Yeah, horse aint dead. 308 00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:26,840 Speaker 3: Yeah. Quarterback pressure is so minimal, no sex, I mean 309 00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:29,160 Speaker 3: I could go down the list, Matt Gay, we can 310 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:31,320 Speaker 3: go down. This isn't the way that they play football. 311 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:32,840 Speaker 3: And that's the thing that I just want to make 312 00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:34,959 Speaker 3: sure that Colts fans know that, Hey, you got to 313 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 3: get kicked around a little bit in this league, but 314 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:38,560 Speaker 3: it is the way you come back. It's a short 315 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:42,280 Speaker 3: week and Shane stykeing at home. Here we go. Then 316 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 3: you get to eight and six and you're literally in 317 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:47,040 Speaker 3: your own control of your own destiny from there on out. 318 00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:49,200 Speaker 3: JJ with very winnable games. 319 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 1: Well yeah, I mean the Colts right now still control 320 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:55,080 Speaker 1: their own destiny. That's like the funniest part of this 321 00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 1: whole playoff race is that even though the Colts lost 322 00:12:57,640 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 1: to the Bengals, and they have the same record. The 323 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 1: Colts have a higher seed because they have a better 324 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 1: conference record as one of six teams of a seven 325 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:09,480 Speaker 1: and six record. The thing so when when I wrote 326 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:10,920 Speaker 1: this rundown, it was sort of like, all right, let's 327 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:13,720 Speaker 1: look at the you know, some issues that popped up 328 00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:16,120 Speaker 1: on Sunday. The run game, Zach Mussel and getting two 329 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:18,959 Speaker 1: point two yards per carry, the screen game culture last 330 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:21,840 Speaker 1: in the NFL allowing seven point six yards per attempt 331 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:24,960 Speaker 1: on screens, Matt Gay missing the pat the short field goal, 332 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:26,680 Speaker 1: you have a turnover on special teams. So kind of 333 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:27,840 Speaker 1: in all three phases. 334 00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:30,360 Speaker 3: I don't know. We were on third down, like what 335 00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 3: was there? 336 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 1: Not not great, it wasn't, but you were in a 337 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:34,280 Speaker 1: lot of third and lungs because Zach Moss had a 338 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:36,960 Speaker 1: number of runs that gained fewer than a yard. 339 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:38,920 Speaker 4: We also had a lot of penalties that put you 340 00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:39,720 Speaker 4: back and behind. 341 00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:42,960 Speaker 1: The penalties did not help either. To me. The thing 342 00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:46,400 Speaker 1: that I want to see fixed the most out of 343 00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:49,560 Speaker 1: all of that, the run game needs to be better. 344 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:53,199 Speaker 1: And Shane Stiken talked about it today in his press 345 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:56,640 Speaker 1: conference that you know, you can stick with the run game, 346 00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 1: maybe if you're getting you know, one yard, two yards 347 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:00,920 Speaker 1: here or there, but you can stick with it if 348 00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 1: you pop a you know, an explosive on a thirty 349 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:05,000 Speaker 1: yard or a forty yarder like we saw Zach Moss 350 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:07,760 Speaker 1: do early in the year. Those have kind of dried up, 351 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 1: and you need to be able to get that explosive 352 00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:15,680 Speaker 1: gain to keep justifying the run game. But the same time, 353 00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:20,480 Speaker 1: it's hard for this offense to turn one dimensional. When 354 00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:22,720 Speaker 1: you look at Gardner Minshew in his career, he's had 355 00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:25,120 Speaker 1: eight games where he's thrown for three hundred more yards 356 00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:27,120 Speaker 1: and he's won in seven in those games. Oh okay, 357 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 1: but that he's a backup. That's what happens back. If 358 00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 1: you need your backup quarterback to throw that much, chances 359 00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 1: are it's because you're losing and you need those yards 360 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:37,560 Speaker 1: to come back. And if you're losing, it means stuff 361 00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:39,520 Speaker 1: probably wasn't working in the run game, which you usually 362 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 1: need to support a backup quarterback. So it all kind 363 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:43,400 Speaker 1: of works hand in hand. I want to see that 364 00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:45,280 Speaker 1: run game get some explosives this week. 365 00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:47,200 Speaker 3: And that's the thing, and you're looking at the opponents 366 00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:50,600 Speaker 3: absolutely need the run game back. TJ wat concussion protocol, 367 00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 3: Highsmith concussion protocol. I mean backup back guys. 368 00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:55,480 Speaker 5: Do you have a little bit more time though, That's 369 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:57,800 Speaker 5: the thing. They're coming off that Thursday night game, so 370 00:14:57,840 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 5: they do kind of have the benefit of a little 371 00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:02,440 Speaker 5: extra time to clear as opposed to you know, colts 372 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:05,000 Speaker 5: who are coming off of a short week, losing a 373 00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:05,680 Speaker 5: day this week. 374 00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:07,760 Speaker 3: What do they scare you? Where do they scare you? Offensively? 375 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 3: Right now, George Pickens going through some things up there 376 00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:13,600 Speaker 3: with you know, some fight right sideline stuff going on. 377 00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:15,040 Speaker 3: I don't know if it Dragson did at the locker 378 00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:17,320 Speaker 3: room or not TJ. Watt, But it's a Mike Tomlin 379 00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:19,600 Speaker 3: coach team. Yeah, that they can beat you wherever, whenever, 380 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:21,760 Speaker 3: it doesn't matter who's playing quarterback. Does he scare you, 381 00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:27,120 Speaker 3: Mitch Trubisky? You know, does does this defense without TJ. 382 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:27,840 Speaker 3: Watt scare you? 383 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 5: I think that a Tomlin defense always find finds ways typically, 384 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 5: you know, I mean, obviously they've had they've had their 385 00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 5: share of you know, unfortunate luck over the last couple 386 00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:41,520 Speaker 5: of weeks and you know a couple of losses. 387 00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 4: But I do think that he he's one. 388 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:47,480 Speaker 5: Of those who is able to retool week to week 389 00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:50,400 Speaker 5: based on what he has uh to work with. I think, 390 00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:52,240 Speaker 5: you know, offensively, it's really going to come down to 391 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:54,240 Speaker 5: being able to stop the run. You know, if you 392 00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:57,400 Speaker 5: are able to mitigate their run game, then you're able 393 00:15:57,440 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 5: to help kind of the rest of your guys in 394 00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:03,040 Speaker 5: your secondary contain the weapons that they have. So that's 395 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:05,840 Speaker 5: to me, it all starts up front, especially with having 396 00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:06,520 Speaker 5: Grover back. 397 00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:10,040 Speaker 1: It's funny like listening to I was listening to an 398 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:13,920 Speaker 1: interview with a Steelers beat writer recently who's talking about 399 00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:17,080 Speaker 1: in Pittsburgh they're getting kind of frustrated with Mike Tomlin, 400 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:20,720 Speaker 1: and I'm like, oh, now there are yeah right, I'm 401 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:24,280 Speaker 1: like there are. Every single team that is like thinking 402 00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:27,360 Speaker 1: about making a head coaching change is like, please fire him, 403 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:29,520 Speaker 1: because we would love to bring him in a minute. 404 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 1: For my money, Mike Tomlin's the best coach in the NFL. Really, 405 00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:35,080 Speaker 1: yeah uh. And you look at what he's done in 406 00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:39,360 Speaker 1: the longevity he's had and how every single freaking year 407 00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:42,640 Speaker 1: the Steelers are competitive. So okay, they got Mitch Trubisky 408 00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:45,360 Speaker 1: starting their backup, you might not have what you might 409 00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:48,080 Speaker 1: not have High Smith in this game. Like you mentioned, 410 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 1: you got the stuff with George Pickens going on, They're 411 00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:54,040 Speaker 1: going to be competitive, they're going to be a challenge, 412 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:55,920 Speaker 1: and they're going to be a pain in the butt 413 00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:58,240 Speaker 1: to play no matter who is on the field. As 414 00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 1: long as they are wearing those helmets, those black helmets, 415 00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:02,800 Speaker 1: and as long as Mike Tomlin is on the sideline, 416 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:04,200 Speaker 1: they're going to be a pain in the butt to play. 417 00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:06,240 Speaker 3: Lara, when we're gonna hear about Juju Brench, when we 418 00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:09,960 Speaker 3: get hear hear body j speed. These are big subtractions 419 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:12,040 Speaker 3: from a team that needs them, especially when you're playing 420 00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:12,920 Speaker 3: football in December. 421 00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:15,960 Speaker 5: So the way the week works is Tuesday is a 422 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 5: walkthrough and then there's scheduled to be practice on Wednesday 423 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:22,800 Speaker 5: and Thursday, so there will be an quote unquote kind 424 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:25,600 Speaker 5: of injury report that goes out that's reflective of had 425 00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:27,679 Speaker 5: we you know, walkthrough, but how DoD we held a practice, 426 00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:30,560 Speaker 5: this would be the injury designation. So then you'll see 427 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:33,159 Speaker 5: how those guys progress. So by Thursday you'll have a 428 00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:36,560 Speaker 5: pretty good indication of where those guys are. But if 429 00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:39,200 Speaker 5: you look at last week, it did come down to 430 00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:42,360 Speaker 5: seeing where they were twenty four hours out from the game. 431 00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:45,320 Speaker 5: So I would anticipate both guys being a game time 432 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 5: decision based on how they look Thursday Friday, and then 433 00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:53,960 Speaker 5: how they respond, you know, going into going into Saturday. 434 00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:55,879 Speaker 4: Based on the period that they have with the you know, 435 00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 4: mock game on Friday. 436 00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:00,760 Speaker 1: Juju and EJ were both questionable on last week's final 437 00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 1: injury report and then they were downgraded to out on Saturday. 438 00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:07,840 Speaker 1: Was there any good news in that, Well, probably that 439 00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:10,320 Speaker 1: they were close that you know, both of them were 440 00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:14,240 Speaker 1: close to playing right. But I do think you'll probably see, 441 00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:17,240 Speaker 1: like Lara said something similar where maybe Thursday those guys 442 00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 1: are listed as questionable. We'll also see what Braden Smith's 443 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:22,000 Speaker 1: status is. That's going to be important to watch, you know, 444 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:25,440 Speaker 1: maybe listed as questionable and then uh, you know, it 445 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:27,440 Speaker 1: could go right up to you know, an hour and 446 00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:29,600 Speaker 1: a half before kickoff when an actives get announced at 447 00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:31,119 Speaker 1: three o'clock on Saturday. 448 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:34,160 Speaker 5: Which I'm totally okay with too, because the less you're 449 00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:38,600 Speaker 5: able to indicate to Pittsburgh personnel, the better you know. 450 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:41,480 Speaker 1: Shane Shane stike In any doubt you can put in 451 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:44,640 Speaker 1: Shane Styke. Shane stikeen asked about every single player if 452 00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:46,200 Speaker 1: they could if there's a chance they're gonna play. He 453 00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:46,920 Speaker 1: just goes We'll see. 454 00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:47,480 Speaker 3: I love it. 455 00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:50,480 Speaker 1: I love it he does. He's given He's given absolutely nothing. 456 00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:52,760 Speaker 3: I'll tell you what. He is a veteran head coach. Yeah, 457 00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:54,879 Speaker 3: in a rookie head coach campaign with some of these 458 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:57,840 Speaker 3: end because, like you said, give away absolutely nothing. And 459 00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:00,280 Speaker 3: and I and I either, what's the point true? But 460 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:02,320 Speaker 3: I'm not being that guy because Jim Bob Cooter is 461 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:04,240 Speaker 3: a great interview. You guys know that all the time. 462 00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:06,320 Speaker 3: But I always tease him because I've known him for 463 00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 3: so long. It's like, bro, you say the most of 464 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:12,080 Speaker 3: anybody who doesn't say anything. Yeah what I mean, like, 465 00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 3: great job, great job. Some of these guys they put 466 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:16,639 Speaker 3: a fine art on it. But I'm just saying they 467 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 3: do give the great updates and stuff. But I love 468 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:21,119 Speaker 3: to love to hear what everything goes on.
