Speaker 2: so we don't get it. May I do that? Man?

22
00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:03,320

00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:04,920
Speaker 6: This is that the direction of our legal department.

24
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:05,520
Speaker 3: Yes it is.

25
00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:07,760
Speaker 2: And all of the deals that we are going to

26
00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:10,720
Speaker 2: talk about today are reported, they are not finalized yet,

27
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:13,120

30
00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:21,440
Speaker 2: wanted to make aware that we can't really get into

31
00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:24,880
Speaker 2: the detailed details. We can go and talk about what's

32
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:27,600
Speaker 2: being reported. I think that's a proper way to say. So.

33
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:29,360
Speaker 6: It's like a safe disclaimer.

34
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:32,560
Speaker 2: A safe disclaimer. Okay, So, so much can change from

35
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:34,959
Speaker 2: this podcast on to the next. I'm sorry about that,

36
00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:36,679
Speaker 2: but we're going to try and keep you up to

37
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:38,800
Speaker 2: date right now, and obviously I want to start right

38
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,320
Speaker 2: here in this building. JJ, Let's start with you. Chris

39
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:45,720
Speaker 2: Ballard has said for a lot of years, reward your own, reward,

40
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:48,920
Speaker 2: your own build from within. We are seeing that in

41
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:51,520
Speaker 2: the early phases and I do mean the legal tampering

42
00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 2: period about the Colts. Hey, Chris Ballard and Chainstyken have

43
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:56,920
Speaker 2: re upped and really put some money into some of

44
00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:58,880
Speaker 2: these veterans that are coming back to the Colts.

45
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:00,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean to me, the you know, a couple

46
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:05,600
Speaker 4: no brainers here, like Michael Pittman Junior, the extension for

47
00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:08,239
Speaker 4: him that's been reported that is a no brainer to

48
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:10,679
Speaker 4: sign Michael Pittman Junior when we had We talked to

49
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:12,960
Speaker 4: Ben Solak at the NFL Combine and he just talked like,

50
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:15,080
Speaker 4: you don't want to find out what life is like

51
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 4: without Michael Pittman Junior. I go back to something Jonathan

52
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 4: Taylor said at the end of the twenty twenty three

53
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:22,960
Speaker 4: season talking about Pittman and just summing him up as

54
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 4: a player, the production, the physicality, the leadership, and he's

55
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:28,240
Speaker 4: just like, I don't know why you wouldn't want that

56
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 4: guy in your team Exactly. That's why he's still here,

57
00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:33,880
Speaker 4: because you don't want to know what it's like without

58
00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:36,720
Speaker 4: Michael Pittman in this building. He's such an important part

59
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:41,240
Speaker 4: not just of Anthony Richardson's development and growth, but of

60
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:45,200
Speaker 4: the mentality that this team brings to you know, every

61
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:48,880
Speaker 4: single game, Like he's that enforcer out there. He's the

62
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:52,560
Speaker 4: physical presence who can block in the run. He's going

63
00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:54,840
Speaker 4: to lower his shouldery into you in the passing game.

64
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:58,520
Speaker 4: And like I remember Zio Franklin mentioning this during the season,

65
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:02,480
Speaker 4: like He's told Pittman like, there aren't many players like

66
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:04,760
Speaker 4: you who are as productive as a wide receiver as

67
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:06,920
Speaker 4: he is, who also are willing to do all the

68
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,800
Speaker 4: little dirty work things and be that physical guy. Those

69
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 4: guys don't just grow on trees. The Colts have one.

70
00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 4: He's still here. That is a really good thing.

71
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 2: That is Lara Michael Pittman Junior. What he means to it.

72
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:21,040
Speaker 2: Colts have been busy, obviously, Zire Franklin. I wanted you

73
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 2: to touch on that because the extension that he has

74
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,760
Speaker 2: reportedly that's going to take place in twenty twenty five,

75
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:29,720
Speaker 2: the importance of keeping him right where he's.

76
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:31,200
Speaker 6: At, well, he's earned it.

77
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 3: I think that's that's first and foremost is you know,

78
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:37,680
Speaker 3: the kind of steel that Zaire was where you were

79
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:39,800
Speaker 3: able to draft him, the bargain that you had him

80
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:42,480
Speaker 3: on early on, even that initial extension was still a

81
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 3: bargain that was prior to you know, when he was

82
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:47,400
Speaker 3: breaking franchise records and you know.

83
00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 6: Doing all of that.

84
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 3: So you are just rewarding him and basically solidifying how

85
00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 3: important of a piece not just to this defense that

86
00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:57,920
Speaker 3: he is, but to this entire organization in this team

87
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:00,960
Speaker 3: and I think it sets a great precedent for other guys,

88
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:04,680
Speaker 3: you know, those on the roster also to see how

89
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 3: you can earn not just a spot on the roster,

90
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,360
Speaker 3: but how you earn these extensions, you know, how you

91
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 3: earn more money in the league, both in how you

92
00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 3: play on the field and how you conduct yourself around

93
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 3: the building.

94
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 6: And then kind of in compliment to Pittman as well.

95
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:21,600
Speaker 3: When you think about not having him or you know

96
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:25,040
Speaker 3: what that you know option would have looked like, I

97
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 3: just think about obviously everything that JJ said similar to

98
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 3: Zayre and that you know, he earned that money, has

99
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,719
Speaker 3: earned that extension and all of that with the way

100
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:37,719
Speaker 3: he has continued to produce the consistency that he's displayed.

101
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:40,039
Speaker 3: Sin See' was drafted in twenty twenty. But it's also

102
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,839
Speaker 3: one of those things where I think that you have

103
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 3: to have some continuity, and you haven't had that in

104
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 3: the last few years because you have had not only

105
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:52,080
Speaker 3: changes at quarterback, but so many changes within the coaching

106
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 3: staff too. When you're talking about even going back a

107
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,400
Speaker 3: few years, when you're talking about Nick Sirianni leaving and

108
00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:00,360
Speaker 3: Matt Eberflus leaving and then Frank Reich leaving and then

109
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,400
Speaker 3: Jeff coming in, and then you had Shane hired and

110
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:06,720
Speaker 3: obviously Gus was retained from Wonder, but you had so

111
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:10,359
Speaker 3: much rotation from that side of the building in addition

112
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:15,160
Speaker 3: to the roster moves with various quarterbacks, then drafting a quarterback,

113
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:17,480
Speaker 3: guys who you brought back, guys who you brought in.

114
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 3: So I think that what you really owed yourself was

115
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:24,840
Speaker 3: to see what the core group that you assembled last year,

116
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,240
Speaker 3: what they can do with guys who were rewarded on deals,

117
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:31,400
Speaker 3: bringing guys back and just having You're never going to

118
00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:33,359
Speaker 3: be able to have copy and paste one year to

119
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:37,200
Speaker 3: the next, but at least the core from the coaching,

120
00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:41,400
Speaker 3: the leadership, the players standpoint, I think is really important,

121
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:44,480
Speaker 3: not even just for Anthony Richardson, but for a second

122
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:46,919
Speaker 3: year under Shane Sdeiken, you know, a third year with

123
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:47,680
Speaker 3: this defense.

124
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,760
Speaker 4: I think with Zaire, the thing that I go back

125
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:54,000
Speaker 4: to is there is no better example, there's no better

126
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 4: player to have young guys look at than Zire Franklin.

127
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,200
Speaker 4: For all the things you mentioned, Laris, he's a seventh

128
00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 4: round pick, and you know we've talked about it a lot,

129
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:06,400
Speaker 4: but he's a seventh round pick who earns his way

130
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 4: out of the roster as a special teamer, and then

131
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 4: he becomes a special team's captain, a four phase guy there,

132
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 4: one of the best special teams players in the NFL.

133
00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 4: He then gets a shot to play a little bit

134
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:19,479
Speaker 4: on defense in twenty twenty one. The Colts then give

135
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 4: him the contract extension after the twenty twenty one season.

136
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 4: But it wasn't an extension that was fit for a

137
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,919
Speaker 4: starting middle linebacker, right, it.

138
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:32,280
Speaker 3: Was a role player.

139
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 4: So then but he goes out on that contract and

140
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:38,760
Speaker 4: he sets a franchise record for tackles, and then the

141
00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:42,800
Speaker 4: next year he sets another franchise record for tackles, and

142
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 4: now he's getting more money on this next extension. You

143
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:51,520
Speaker 4: cannot ask for a better example for young players on

144
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:55,800
Speaker 4: this team to follow than Zaire Franklin. And look what happens.

145
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 4: If you put your nose down, you work, you work hard,

146
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 4: you're a good teammate, you're a good leader, you're a

147
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:05,560
Speaker 4: guy who everyone starts rallying around. You're going to get yours.

148
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 4: And Zire Franklin earned every single penny that he is

149
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:12,600
Speaker 4: going to get on this contract extension in a way

150
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:16,120
Speaker 4: that like every player deserves to get paid, right, you know.

151
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 4: But like when you look at Zire Franklin, that is

152
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:23,240
Speaker 4: a guy who you're you're like, yeah, man, like you

153
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:26,400
Speaker 4: you got that money in a way that you took

154
00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:29,080
Speaker 4: a hard path to get it, but man, do you

155
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:29,520
Speaker 4: deserve it?

156
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, you should be clapping for I mean, if you're

157
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 2: a Zire Franklin fan or not, I believe maybe I'm

158
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,360
Speaker 2: wrong here. Did he not walk on at Syracuse?

159
00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:38,440
Speaker 6: No he was. No, he was a Scottish player.

160
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:39,560
Speaker 2: And then he worked his way up to be a

161
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:40,800
Speaker 2: team captain and stuff like that, and I.

162
00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:45,240
Speaker 3: Think he's, like, I'm just I believe the first three

163
00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 3: time team captain in franchise football history.

164
00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:48,880
Speaker 6: I believe.

165
00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:52,960
Speaker 1: I believe that's true. Yes, yeah, anyway, I.

166
00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:54,400
Speaker 6: Had to go on the depth of the archives for

167
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:55,160
Speaker 6: that one right there.

168
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:57,200
Speaker 2: But yeah, just seeing him rewarded is great. A couple

169
00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 2: other guys, I'm gonna throw two to, uh what you

170
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:02,880
Speaker 2: just mentioned on both these guys because I loved, loved,

171
00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:06,000
Speaker 2: love that Grover Stewart and Taekwon Lewis are both coming back.

172
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:07,400
Speaker 2: The importance of Grover.

173
00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:08,960
Speaker 6: Oh immense.

174
00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:12,160
Speaker 3: I mean, they're the you know, we give so much

175
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:15,160
Speaker 3: praise and rightfully so, I think across the league attention

176
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:18,920
Speaker 3: is brought on the production of DeForest Buckner, but there

177
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:22,200
Speaker 3: is and this isn't to say that that's not to

178
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 3: DeForest credit, but a lot of his production is due

179
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,960
Speaker 3: to having the tandem of he and Grover Stewart together

180
00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:31,120
Speaker 3: and the way that they work. And what I find

181
00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,959
Speaker 3: really intriguing is the addition of Charlie Partridge as a

182
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:38,319
Speaker 3: defensive line coach onto this coaching staff and what he

183
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:41,600
Speaker 3: can do with the wealth of talent and the wealth

184
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 3: of resources now that have been invested in that defensive

185
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 3: front when you not only talk about you know, DeForest

186
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:52,320
Speaker 3: and Grover and Taekwon and then Samson ebucom last year

187
00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:54,959
Speaker 3: and then the draft capital when you think about guys

188
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 3: like Quitty and Dio.

189
00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:58,199
Speaker 6: So there has been a lot.

190
00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:00,080
Speaker 3: I actually heard something earlier today where they're like, I

191
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:01,880
Speaker 3: don't know if you you know, look at two guys

192
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:03,559
Speaker 3: in the middle of any defensive front that are getting

193
00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:05,680
Speaker 3: paid better than DeForest and Grover.

194
00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:07,800
Speaker 6: So you've invested a lot upfront there.

195
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 3: Now you want to see the return on the backside

196
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 3: with you know, the numbers replicating the investment that's been made. Obviously,

197
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:16,080
Speaker 3: you know that group, the defense as a as a whole,

198
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:19,000
Speaker 3: breaking the franchise sack record, you know, last year. You

199
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:21,000
Speaker 3: want to continue to have that level of production for

200
00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 3: another year. But I really hated that this season was

201
00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:28,680
Speaker 3: one for Grove that was shortened due to that six

202
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:32,640
Speaker 3: game suspension, you know, because he was having such a

203
00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:34,839
Speaker 3: great year and had so much production. But I also

204
00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:38,920
Speaker 3: think that it a bit shined a light on the

205
00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:42,199
Speaker 3: void that was there without him. And that's not a

206
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,840
Speaker 3: knock on anyone else, you know who was stepping in

207
00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:48,880
Speaker 3: rotation for Grover in those six games, But it's too

208
00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 3: a credit of how important he is and how valuable.

209
00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:55,200
Speaker 2: He is, equally important to that defense the way MPG

210
00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:56,600
Speaker 2: is to the offense.

211
00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:58,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, I was just about to say, you know that

212
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:00,160
Speaker 4: whole thing about you don't want to find out what

213
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:02,559
Speaker 4: life is like without Michael Pittman Junior. You find out

214
00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,480
Speaker 4: what life was like without Grover Stewart, and you know

215
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:07,800
Speaker 4: you got to keep him here. Like the Colts were

216
00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:10,080
Speaker 4: a top ten run defense with Grover Stewart on the

217
00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:13,400
Speaker 4: field or at least active for games last year, and

218
00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:16,760
Speaker 4: they were bottom three, if I'm not mistaken. When Grover

219
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:18,600
Speaker 4: Stewart was out in that six game stretch.

220
00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:21,520
Speaker 3: Again a guy who was what a fifth round pick,

221
00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:23,640
Speaker 3: fourth round pick out all, so you've got him on

222
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:25,679
Speaker 3: a steal really for that or That's another thing that

223
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:28,320
Speaker 3: you kind of think about is when you look at

224
00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:31,520
Speaker 3: the entirety of his career, you know you were able

225
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:33,439
Speaker 3: to get him in those and you know he was

226
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:35,400
Speaker 3: kind of unproven because he came out of a you know,

227
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:37,560
Speaker 3: a smaller program and all of that and had to

228
00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:41,480
Speaker 3: you know, create what this priority has been for him.

229
00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:44,080
Speaker 3: But yeah, one who you do feel like he has

230
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:44,600
Speaker 3: given his to.

231
00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:47,560
Speaker 4: The Other thing too, is that players at Groves position

232
00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:50,720
Speaker 4: kind of that one technique nose tackle, they usually age

233
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:54,680
Speaker 4: pretty well. Like you're not as worried about the post

234
00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:57,840
Speaker 4: thirty drop off Groves thirty, but you're not as worried

235
00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:01,240
Speaker 4: about it at that position compared to other positions.

236
00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:03,760
Speaker 6: And he's been really healthy over the course.

237
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:06,480
Speaker 4: He's only missed one game, yeah, due to injury. I

238
00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:09,640
Speaker 4: don't or no games due to injury since he entered

239
00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:10,280
Speaker 4: the starting line up.

240
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:11,440
Speaker 6: I was gonna say, I can't think.

241
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:12,280
Speaker 1: I don't think he's.

242
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:13,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, I don't think he's missed a single

243
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:15,240
Speaker 4: game due to injury since he missed the starting.

244
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:18,840
Speaker 2: Glad that he's back. Taekwon Lewis. Guys, I'm gonna say this,

245
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,480
Speaker 2: and maybe you disagree or agree. I think the importance

246
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:23,160
Speaker 2: that he has on the field. Obviously we saw what

247
00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:25,000
Speaker 2: he did last year, which was a great year, coming

248
00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:27,960
Speaker 2: off of second consecutive knee issues that he's had in

249
00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:31,480
Speaker 2: the offseason and whatnot, missing time. But it's off the field,

250
00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:33,839
Speaker 2: it's in those meeting rooms that I've come to find

251
00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:37,040
Speaker 2: out this is one of the leaders, if not the leader,

252
00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 2: of the defensive lineman room. And having that leadership back,

253
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:43,040
Speaker 2: especially with you know, scattered with some young guys around

254
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:44,400
Speaker 2: him like that, that's what I think is one of

255
00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:47,000
Speaker 2: the most important offseason things they did to bring back

256
00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 2: Taekwon strictly for that.

257
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:51,640
Speaker 4: I mean, you think about his journey too, like another

258
00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:53,760
Speaker 4: guy who Hey, if you're going through a hard time,

259
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:58,800
Speaker 4: go talk to Taekwon, because this guy. It's unbelievable in fact,

260
00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:02,559
Speaker 4: what Taekwon has gone through to have the patella injury

261
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:05,440
Speaker 4: that ended his season in twenty twenty one while returning

262
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:10,560
Speaker 4: an interception like of all things, and then almost one

263
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:14,520
Speaker 4: year to the date after that his other patella goes out,

264
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:17,360
Speaker 4: misses the rest of the year, and then he comes back.

265
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:19,600
Speaker 4: The Colts brought him back after both of those injuries,

266
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:23,240
Speaker 4: and what a way that he rewarded them in twenty

267
00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:27,479
Speaker 4: twenty three, healthy for all seventeen games, he was effective.

268
00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:30,000
Speaker 4: He had the third most pressures on the team despite

269
00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:34,280
Speaker 4: playing the fifth most pass rushing snaps. He's versatile. And then,

270
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:37,320
Speaker 4: like you mentioned, what a leader he is, what a

271
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:40,720
Speaker 4: voice he is for that defensive line. I mean, how

272
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 4: often did we see like Nick Cross just at his

273
00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:45,440
Speaker 4: locker this year, like a guy who was kind of,

274
00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:48,320
Speaker 4: you know, trying to find his footing. Well, who better

275
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:50,160
Speaker 4: to talk to than Taekwon Lewis about that, right?

276
00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:53,079
Speaker 3: I Mean when you look at what Taekwon has been

277
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:54,840
Speaker 3: through over the court, you know he has outlined the

278
00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:58,760
Speaker 3: injuries similar to Zaire and the example that he is

279
00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:02,360
Speaker 3: for every guy on roster. Taekwon's the same way for

280
00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:06,280
Speaker 3: you know, other guys, younger guys to face adversity early

281
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:09,679
Speaker 3: on in their careers. He is that template of you know,

282
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:11,840
Speaker 3: how to go about it and the mentality to have,

283
00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 3: the investment to have like in the recovery and all

284
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:16,640
Speaker 3: of that, and I mean he just is relentless. That's,

285
00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:19,480
Speaker 3: you know, one of Shane's pillars. He's relentless in the

286
00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:24,640
Speaker 3: way that he approaches everything. And his faith, his positivity,

287
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:26,160
Speaker 3: his belief in this team.

288
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:27,439
Speaker 6: None of that has ever waivered.

289
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:31,199
Speaker 2: Excellent. Well, I tell you what, Chris Paller's doing a

290
00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:34,160
Speaker 2: heck of a job on this thing. And you know,

291
00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:36,720
Speaker 2: you read on the social sites and stuff like this

292
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:39,200
Speaker 2: is why aren't we doing Why aren't we Why aren't

293
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:41,680
Speaker 2: we doing this? Why aren't we doing this? Hey, just

00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,360
Speaker 2: let the general manage, your general manage, Okay, just let

295
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:46,080
Speaker 2: it and the budget that he has to work with

296
00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:47,680
Speaker 2: and everything like this. But j J, just let me

297
00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:49,240
Speaker 2: finish shoe. I just want this to go out to

298
00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:53,240
Speaker 2: Colts fans. Don't fret, and you don't hear like, Hey,

299
00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:56,319
Speaker 2: this guy got sixty million dollars a year and he's

300
00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:58,360
Speaker 2: coming in. He's gonna do this for this offense or

301
00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,280
Speaker 2: this for this defense. It's a ballad way of doing things.

302
00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:03,360
Speaker 2: He's had success. We've seen that hell of a year

303
00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 2: last year, running with a backup quarterback almost almost to

304
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:09,520
Speaker 2: a playoff birth. So JJ A message, slight, slight message

305
00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:11,720
Speaker 2: to the fans that you're saying, where's all the bells

306
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:12,760
Speaker 2: and whistles right now?

307
00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:15,800
Speaker 4: So I'm trying to go find it. Because our friend

308
00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:19,440
Speaker 4: Bett brad Spielberger from Pro Football Focus, he tweeted out

309
00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:22,440
Speaker 4: favorite day ones of free agency. This was at like,

310
00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:27,720
Speaker 4: you know, almost midnight on Monday. Texans, Vikings, Lions, Colts.

311
00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:31,200
Speaker 4: And you look at those teams. Some of them spent

312
00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 4: The Vikings spent quite a bit, Houston did a little bit,

313
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:36,080
Speaker 4: you know, they dabbled a little bit, and then the

314
00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:38,160
Speaker 4: Lions and Colts were kind of, you know, maybe a

315
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 4: little bit more measured getting you know, the retaining their guys.

316
00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:45,600
Speaker 4: The Colts especially, they're not giving out these like insane

317
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:49,200
Speaker 4: contracts that you usually see on day one of free agency.

318
00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:53,160
Speaker 4: Those are where teams wind up making mistakes, and those

319
00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:55,560
Speaker 4: are where teams you overpay and then two years later

320
00:14:55,600 --> 00:15:00,240
Speaker 4: you're cutting the guy dead cap all. That not the

321
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:02,120
Speaker 4: way the Colts do business. I mean, you think even

322
00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 4: last year the Colts they didn't do anything on day

323
00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:06,080
Speaker 4: one of free agency. Every and sitting there and what

324
00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:08,200
Speaker 4: the hell are they doing? And then the next day

325
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:11,280
Speaker 4: it was okay, here comes Samson ebucom here comes Gardner, Minshew,

326
00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:14,240
Speaker 4: here comes Matt Gay. You know, you start having some

327
00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:16,080
Speaker 4: of these signings that come in that you're like, okay,

328
00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:18,040
Speaker 4: I see what they're doing, and then they play out,

329
00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 4: you know, pretty well on the field, especially those three guys,

330
00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:24,320
Speaker 4: and okay, that was probably pretty good free agency period.

331
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:26,440
Speaker 4: You feel good about where the team's at after that,

332
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:30,080
Speaker 4: as opposed to you might get this high of signing

333
00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:31,960
Speaker 4: a guy for a you know, a bunch of money

334
00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:34,320
Speaker 4: and then you get him on the field and you know,

335
00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:36,000
Speaker 4: it's the whole Chris Ballard thing. You don't want to

336
00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:39,520
Speaker 4: pay B plus players a money and that's a lot

337
00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:42,600
Speaker 4: of what that first day specifically of free agency.

338
00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:45,760
Speaker 2: Is Ricorbertel Sanchez. Yeah, another one that they've inked to

339
00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:48,560
Speaker 2: a deal and obviously coming off the injury that he

340
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:50,800
Speaker 2: did and having a hell of a year last year.

341
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:52,520
Speaker 2: I mean, this is another guy that we've got a

342
00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:54,360
Speaker 2: whole boatload of these guys. You want to see him

343
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:56,320
Speaker 2: stay because they're not only great guys off the field,

344
00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:58,080
Speaker 2: but they're great on the field. I'm so happy for

345
00:15:58,120 --> 00:15:58,960
Speaker 2: the Colt Special team.

346
00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:01,080
Speaker 3: Oh so happy for him, of course, But I think

347
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:04,200
Speaker 3: it's an easy area to overlook when you think about, oh,

348
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:07,160
Speaker 3: free agency, and maybe you don't think as much about

349
00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:09,560
Speaker 3: the priority on special teams. But coming off of the

350
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:12,520
Speaker 3: injury that he had, Rego just progressively got better as

351
00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:14,560
Speaker 3: the year went on. And that makes me think that,

352
00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:17,720
Speaker 3: you know, he will continue to be at an even

353
00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:21,800
Speaker 3: greater level when he starts the twenty twenty four season,

354
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 3: you know, even than when he probably finished the twenty

355
00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:27,760
Speaker 3: twenty three season because of just the progression of that,

356
00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:29,480
Speaker 3: the you know, kind of strength he was able to

357
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:31,920
Speaker 3: build up the confidence he you know, built from that.

358
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:34,520
Speaker 3: And then again too kind of going back to the

359
00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:37,680
Speaker 3: continuity standpoint, it's easy to forget. Brian Mason was a

360
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:40,520
Speaker 3: brand new special teams coordinator last season. He came out

361
00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:42,440
Speaker 3: of Notre Dame. This was his first year in the

362
00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:46,440
Speaker 3: NFL working with that group. So I think maintaining especially

363
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:50,240
Speaker 3: the trio there with Rigo, Matt Gay, Luke Rhodes, I

364
00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:53,440
Speaker 3: think is really important for that.

365
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:57,560
Speaker 6: Unit to continue to develop. And Yeah, Rego's just I

366
00:16:57,600 --> 00:16:59,320
Speaker 6: mean incredible, you know, like he's.

367
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:02,760
Speaker 2: The great story. Great stories, Yeah yours, Taekwons Grovers and

368
00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:03,480
Speaker 2: other great stories.

369
00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:05,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, and that's just one of those movies

370
00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:07,080
Speaker 4: you see and you're like, yeah, yeah, of course you

371
00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:10,199
Speaker 4: would do that. And Chris Ballard even talked about He's like,

372
00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:12,119
Speaker 4: you know, sort of couching it with like I know,

373
00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:14,560
Speaker 4: no one's gonna care about this, but like what Rego

374
00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:17,800
Speaker 4: does as a holder, like keeping that keeping that kicking

375
00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:20,840
Speaker 4: battery together. Sometimes at that one little thing goes hey wire,

376
00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:24,000
Speaker 4: you know you're missing a big kick. I mean remember

377
00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:28,200
Speaker 4: that Titans game right for example, where Ryan Stonehouse, their punter,

378
00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:29,240
Speaker 4: was also their holder.

379
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:30,160
Speaker 1: He got hurt.

380
00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:32,639
Speaker 4: They had to go with Ryan Tannehill as their holder

381
00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:34,840
Speaker 4: as in an emergency and you had a bad hold.

382
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:36,560
Speaker 4: Nick Folk missed a kick that wound up losing them

383
00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:38,600
Speaker 4: the game, right, Like that stuff can happen. I got

384
00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:42,240
Speaker 4: something on Rego. This is like real sicko statistical analysis.

385
00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:47,679
Speaker 4: Yeah it So if anyone watching or listening knows this answer, like,

386
00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:51,399
Speaker 4: let me know, because you're you're a sicko too. Uh

387
00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:54,320
Speaker 4: Rigo Sanchez in twenty twenty three did not have a

388
00:17:54,400 --> 00:18:00,639
Speaker 4: single touchback on sixty eight punts, the last time a

389
00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:03,320
Speaker 4: punter had at least sixty five punts. So I was

390
00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:06,200
Speaker 4: sort of like, you're averaging like four game with zero

391
00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:13,119
Speaker 4: touchbacks twenty and thirteen, a guy by the name of

392
00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:14,879
Speaker 4: Saverio Roca.

393
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:19,200
Speaker 1: Roca with Washington did that well.

394
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:21,000
Speaker 2: Hell of a hell of a record, hell of a deal.

395
00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:23,959
Speaker 4: Why didn't because he was forty years old and he

396
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:26,359
Speaker 4: was an Aussie rules punteris was last year in the

397
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:28,440
Speaker 4: league because he was forty.

398
00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:29,960
Speaker 2: Oh, so he was playing Aussie rules and then finally

399
00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:32,639
Speaker 2: gave the NFL a crack ye right, yeah it up? Yeah, no,

400
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:35,040
Speaker 2: a great, great stack on that if you're not playing.

401
00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:36,960
Speaker 4: I told I told Lara as we were getting coffee

402
00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:38,600
Speaker 4: before this, I was like, I got a real sickos

403
00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:40,680
Speaker 4: stand up, Rega, I'm gonna bring out here.

404
00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:43,280
Speaker 2: What if you're watching Aussie kicker? I forget your name.

405
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:45,560
Speaker 2: Thanks and Saverio Roca.

406
00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:48,320
Speaker 4: We are the foremost cults podcast talking about Saverio Roca

407
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:48,680
Speaker 4: right now?

408
00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:50,040
Speaker 2: The hell of twenty thirteen.

409
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:52,280
Speaker 4: I might be pronouncing that wrong too, could be Rocket?

410
00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:54,159
Speaker 4: Could I say Saverio Rocca?

411
00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:54,520
Speaker 1: I don't know.

412
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:56,480
Speaker 2: That's great. So the colts are getting that now, guys,

413
00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:57,800
Speaker 2: we have to go on the flip side of this

414
00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:01,360
Speaker 2: because it is free agency. Colts are keeping their own.

415
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:03,320
Speaker 2: We just went through the list. Colts have now lost

416
00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:06,639
Speaker 2: a couple of veterans. You know, you think about it

417
00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:09,080
Speaker 2: and Gardner Minshew and what he meant to this team

418
00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:11,640
Speaker 2: last year, especially in OTAs we talked about it when

419
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:13,560
Speaker 2: we knew we were getting a quarterback in the draft

420
00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:15,480
Speaker 2: and stuff like that, and Anthony couldn't come in, and

421
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:17,720
Speaker 2: you know, and this guy was a leader right from

422
00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:20,720
Speaker 2: day one. Gardner Minshew off to the Raiders getting paid

423
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:22,640
Speaker 2: for some big money. Lara, I'm gonna start with you.

424
00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:24,840
Speaker 6: No, I thought you're gonna stay off to the races.

425
00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:27,840
Speaker 2: Off to the races after the Raiders. But but Gardner,

426
00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:30,919
Speaker 2: good for him, He's gonna come ye job, you know,

427
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:33,399
Speaker 2: and I the kid would He did everything that was

428
00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:35,359
Speaker 2: asked for him coming in here, and obviously Shane Steike

429
00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:37,120
Speaker 2: and plucked him and said, bring this guy in. We're

430
00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:38,879
Speaker 2: fine as a backup right there, and he proved that

431
00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:39,680
Speaker 2: and he's getting paid.

432
00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:41,160
Speaker 3: I would have loved to have seen him back here,

433
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:44,159
Speaker 3: of course. I mean, he was so fun, so valuable

434
00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:46,080
Speaker 3: last season. But you also knew that if he had

435
00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:48,159
Speaker 3: a chance to compete for a starting job, that was

436
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:49,480
Speaker 3: the route that he was gonna go.

437
00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:50,680
Speaker 6: And that's right for him.

438
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:54,240
Speaker 3: Signed a fantastic contract to go to Vegas and he'll

439
00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:57,240
Speaker 3: compete alongside Aidan O'Connell for that job. I think that

440
00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:01,800
Speaker 3: his experience, you know, the veteran presence that he is,

441
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:04,080
Speaker 3: is going to be a really good fit there, and

442
00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:06,840
Speaker 3: we'll certainly, you know, give him a chance to you know,

443
00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:09,399
Speaker 3: get that opportunity, which you know he well deserves. So

444
00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:12,080
Speaker 3: that's one of those things where with all of these

445
00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:15,479
Speaker 3: you know, when you do see the departures, I get selfish.

446
00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:17,280
Speaker 6: I want to keep all of these guys back, you know.

447
00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:19,840
Speaker 3: But then when you do see guys who can have

448
00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:23,240
Speaker 3: an opportunity to have a heavier workload and more security,

449
00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:25,720
Speaker 3: you want that for them too, because there are only

450
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:27,800
Speaker 3: so many guys that you can have on a roster,

451
00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:29,520
Speaker 3: only so many that you can play at a time.

452
00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:31,480
Speaker 3: I mean, I think about too, like you know, how

453
00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:33,600
Speaker 3: much do we all love Bobby o'caraka, But it was

454
00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:36,680
Speaker 3: like he had played to the point of he deserved

455
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:39,360
Speaker 3: a starting linebacker role, right and you knew he wasn't

456
00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:39,840
Speaker 3: gonna get it.

457
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:42,240
Speaker 6: Here went to New York and is having a fantastic

458
00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 6: time there.

459
00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:44,640
Speaker 3: Like a number of guys that you know you could

460
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:46,440
Speaker 3: talk about that you know with as well.

461
00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:49,200
Speaker 4: That's just part of the NFL at it. I think

462
00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:53,399
Speaker 4: also for for Gardner Minshew, there's not a single like

463
00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 4: quarterback in the NFL who's on a roster who doesn't

464
00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:58,680
Speaker 4: want to start. I think you know, we all want

465
00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:01,000
Speaker 4: to Gardner back as a backup. We all also knew

466
00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:03,080
Speaker 4: that if any team came to him and said, you're

467
00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 4: gonna have a chance to compete, maybe we'll draft a quarterback,

468
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:07,800
Speaker 4: maybe we won't, but we will give you a chance

469
00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:10,440
Speaker 4: to be a starting quarterback in the NFL. In twenty

470
00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:13,320
Speaker 4: twenty four, he was gone, and as well he should be,

471
00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:15,600
Speaker 4: because if he said, ah, I kind of really like

472
00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:18,679
Speaker 4: backup life in Indianapolis, I'd be like, you do, really

473
00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:19,520
Speaker 4: you want to be back here?

474
00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:20,760
Speaker 1: I don't know if we want you back now.

475
00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:24,240
Speaker 4: Exactly like that competitiveness aspect of it, I think sometimes

476
00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:27,680
Speaker 4: gets a little bit lost in translation of this thing.

477
00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:31,439
Speaker 4: Like Gardner Minshew's a super competitive guy. Of course he

478
00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:33,000
Speaker 4: wants to go somewhere where he's going to have a

479
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:34,440
Speaker 4: chance to compete to start.

480
00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:37,360
Speaker 3: And I think if any point this year has been

481
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:41,239
Speaker 3: the year that you see more opportunities for quarterbacks in

482
00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:44,520
Speaker 3: that situation, there is so much quarterback unknown for so

483
00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:48,159
Speaker 3: many different organizations that if you are a guy in

484
00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:50,440
Speaker 3: a role like Gardner, that you've got to strike while

485
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 3: the iron's hot, that you do have this opportunity to

486
00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:54,040
Speaker 3: capitalize on it.

487
00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:55,000
Speaker 6: And I think that this is.

488
00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:59,800
Speaker 3: One of the more interesting quarterback seasons that we're gonna have.

489
00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:02,760
Speaker 4: And now, like as we're sitting here on Tuesday, like

490
00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:05,200
Speaker 4: the musical chairs have kind of slowed a little bit,

491
00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:08,080
Speaker 4: and now we're probably into where do the backups go?

492
00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:10,560
Speaker 4: You're starting to see some movement on the backup quarterback

493
00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:13,040
Speaker 4: market that's now a place. Do the Colts evaluate it

494
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:16,240
Speaker 4: and say we, like Sam Ellinger, do you say we

495
00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:18,040
Speaker 4: need a veteran quarterback? Do you say we need a

496
00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:20,560
Speaker 4: quarterback who is a skill set similar to Anthony Richardson.

497
00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:23,119
Speaker 4: Now it's kind of open now that Gardner Minshew has

498
00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:26,639
Speaker 4: found his role in Las Vegas. Now it's kind of

499
00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:29,080
Speaker 4: this open ended question that the Colts can go down

500
00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:32,280
Speaker 4: because I think if if Gardner didn't get that job

501
00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:34,880
Speaker 4: in Las Vegas, I think the Colts would be very

502
00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:38,680
Speaker 4: happy to bring him back, right. But now it's like, okay, well,

503
00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 4: now we can go whatever direction that we think is best,

504
00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:48,040
Speaker 4: you know, kind of behind Anthony Richardson, whatever that may

505
00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:48,439
Speaker 4: look like.

506
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:51,240
Speaker 2: Speaking of behind Anthony Richardson for about a year and

507
00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:53,800
Speaker 2: a half, we're gonna tip of the hat to Zach Moss. Yeah,

508
00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:55,480
Speaker 2: and what he did and what he brought from the

509
00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:58,600
Speaker 2: trade with Nim Hines and and Zack Moss came in

510
00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:02,320
Speaker 2: here and we were like, wow, we're seeing is it

511
00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:05,040
Speaker 2: I'm gonna ask you both, is it? Is it the

512
00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:09,920
Speaker 2: Is it the upcoming draft that's lacking so much superior

513
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:12,240
Speaker 2: I use that word talent at the running back positions

514
00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:14,680
Speaker 2: to see the veterans that we've seen in the last

515
00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:16,960
Speaker 2: two days that are changing teams and signing for some

516
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:17,760
Speaker 2: pretty good money.

517
00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:22,120
Speaker 1: It could be. I do think teams are there.

518
00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:24,280
Speaker 4: Maybe this is a bit of a course correction in

519
00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:26,840
Speaker 4: the running back market, and maybe maybe the Jonathan Taylor

520
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:29,679
Speaker 4: extension kind of was that course correction of like, you know,

521
00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:31,720
Speaker 4: we can't just cycle through these guys. We can't just

522
00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:34,080
Speaker 4: say thanks for four years and you know, get out

523
00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:35,119
Speaker 4: the door. We're going to take a guy in the

524
00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:38,840
Speaker 4: third round. He'll be just as good. Maybe maybe that's

525
00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:40,320
Speaker 4: a little bit of that, Maybe it is a little

526
00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:42,639
Speaker 4: bit of a weaker so you know, quote unquote draft

527
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:44,240
Speaker 4: class where there's not that guy who's going to go

528
00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:46,879
Speaker 4: in the first round, but those guys who go in

529
00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:49,840
Speaker 4: the first round are pretty rare anyway. Yeah, I think

530
00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:52,040
Speaker 4: it also might just coincide with a lot of guys

531
00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:54,359
Speaker 4: who have earned it hitting free agency at the same time. Right,

532
00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:58,000
Speaker 4: And Zach Moss like another guy who is not going

533
00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:02,320
Speaker 4: to get the star arding role in Indianapolis, Right, so

534
00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:04,600
Speaker 4: he's going to go somewhere where he's got more opportunities.

535
00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:09,199
Speaker 4: Cincinnati moved on from Joe Mixon down in Houston, and

536
00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:13,720
Speaker 4: but Zach Moss, I mean when he came here that

537
00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:15,399
Speaker 4: he had not been with the team that wanted to

538
00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:18,080
Speaker 4: run the football, the Buffalo Bills. When Zach Moss got

539
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,840
Speaker 4: drafted to Buffalo, he's a third round pick, they yeah, right,

540
00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:23,480
Speaker 4: and you can talk about, yeah, we really want to

541
00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:25,560
Speaker 4: run the ball a lot, but if you don't practice

542
00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:27,800
Speaker 4: it that much, because you have Josh Allen, you have

543
00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:29,640
Speaker 4: Stephan Diggs. It's not like I'm saying the Bills made

544
00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:32,639
Speaker 4: a bad decision, but they just they didn't practice it

545
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:35,159
Speaker 4: that much. So when Zach Moss got the ball, he

546
00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:37,159
Speaker 4: wasn't really able to show what he could do.

547
00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:40,680
Speaker 2: And think about the trade too. You know, they put

548
00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:42,960
Speaker 2: Naim out. You know, hey, I am going to slot hey,

549
00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:44,560
Speaker 2: and I ain't go out on the right side, whereas

550
00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:46,320
Speaker 2: you don't see that as much with Zach Moss. So

551
00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:48,879
Speaker 2: another one that we kind of let go, not not

552
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:52,000
Speaker 2: let go, but you're happy to see him get his

553
00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:55,200
Speaker 2: chance in Cincinnati reportedly by the way reported I think

554
00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:57,200
Speaker 2: I'm saying I'm happy for a guy like that, and

555
00:24:57,359 --> 00:24:59,760
Speaker 2: quite frankly, I don't know the Colts in this position

556
00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:02,400
Speaker 2: for backup running back Payne Jonathan Taylor what they are

557
00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:04,560
Speaker 2: or in a position right to match an offer like

558
00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:05,840
Speaker 2: that for a guy like Zack Moss.

559
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:07,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would totally agree with that.

560
00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:09,399
Speaker 4: Like, good for Zack moscoing somewhere where he's gonna get

561
00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:11,320
Speaker 4: a shot to be kind of the number one guy

562
00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:14,240
Speaker 4: for me. Like after that Tennessee game in Week five

563
00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:16,240
Speaker 4: where he went for one hundred and sixty three against

564
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:17,840
Speaker 4: one of the best run defenses in the NFL, I

565
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:19,920
Speaker 4: remember thinking, yeah, he's probably not going to be back,

566
00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:21,560
Speaker 4: and good for him, Good for him, go out and

567
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:22,120
Speaker 4: get that bag.

568
00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:24,719
Speaker 3: I mean, look at who you have with you know,

569
00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:28,800
Speaker 3: assessing situations, you know, I mean he's totally different type

570
00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:31,040
Speaker 3: of back. But you have Evan Hull, who you know

571
00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:32,520
Speaker 3: was out for the entirety of the season.

572
00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:33,440
Speaker 6: What is his role?

573
00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:33,840
Speaker 2: Like?

574
00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:36,320
Speaker 3: What about Trey Sermon? I thought he was really good

575
00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:38,760
Speaker 3: when he was in there? Is he restricted free agent?

576
00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:39,080
Speaker 6: Jays?

577
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:41,760
Speaker 4: I think try, Yeah, I believe he well, I know

578
00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:44,159
Speaker 4: he's not unrestricted. I believe I believe that.

579
00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:46,560
Speaker 6: So you know, what's the can you do something there

580
00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:46,960
Speaker 6: with Trey?

581
00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:49,280
Speaker 3: You know, a guy who I think proved value to

582
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:52,320
Speaker 3: you when he got in what was that the Pittsburgh game? Uh?

583
00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:54,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, he had good game, I mean a really.

584
00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:58,040
Speaker 6: Good game, and he's he is phenomenal, you know.

585
00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:01,040
Speaker 3: So I think that you do have some options maybe

586
00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:05,440
Speaker 3: that you know aren't exactly the role that Zach Moss played,

587
00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:10,560
Speaker 3: but you have some interesting personnel to assess and how

588
00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:12,240
Speaker 3: they fit and then do you need.

589
00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:14,080
Speaker 6: To supplement that you know in some way?

590
00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:17,639
Speaker 3: And then you know, I also think too, like the

591
00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:23,280
Speaker 3: acquisition period doesn't end with free agency. Think about guys

592
00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:26,240
Speaker 3: who we have seen movement in training camps, movement during

593
00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:29,520
Speaker 3: the preseason leading into the regular season. So it's not

594
00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:32,520
Speaker 3: just like you know, April rolls around and you're done

595
00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:33,320
Speaker 3: making moves.

596
00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:34,679
Speaker 6: This is a front office that.

597
00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:38,320
Speaker 3: Will continue evaluating and growing and you know, trying to

598
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:41,640
Speaker 3: better this roster up until you have roster cuts and after.

599
00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:44,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, the way that it usually works is

600
00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:46,600
Speaker 4: you kind of have this burst in the first week,

601
00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:48,719
Speaker 4: week and a half of free agency. Once you kind

602
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:51,280
Speaker 4: of get to Friday of this week, that's when you

603
00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:53,160
Speaker 4: see things start to slow down. That's when you maybe

604
00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:56,160
Speaker 4: see some of the veterans who are out there taking

605
00:26:56,200 --> 00:27:00,639
Speaker 4: their time taking visits to facilities. After that point, and

606
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:02,919
Speaker 4: then you know it kind of once you get to

607
00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:06,560
Speaker 4: the league meetings in late March is usually when it's

608
00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:09,000
Speaker 4: kind of okay, not a whole lot's gonna happen between

609
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,320
Speaker 4: now in the draft. But then right after the draft

610
00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:13,320
Speaker 4: you have this other burst again because that's when if

611
00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:15,960
Speaker 4: you sign up an unrestricted free agent after the draft,

612
00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:19,320
Speaker 4: it does not count against the compensatory pick formula. If

613
00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:21,000
Speaker 4: you remember, a couple years ago, the Colt signed Eric

614
00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:24,000
Speaker 4: Fisher right after the draft. So teams will go through

615
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:25,760
Speaker 4: the draft, Hey can we fill these needs? Can we

616
00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:26,680
Speaker 4: go with the young guy here?

617
00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:27,520
Speaker 1: No, we can't.

618
00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:29,280
Speaker 4: We don't really like anyone on the board here. Okay,

619
00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:31,360
Speaker 4: let's go bring in the veteran after the draft. He's

620
00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:33,119
Speaker 4: not gonna hurt us if we're trying to get a

621
00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:35,639
Speaker 4: draft pick next year. And then you get then it

622
00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:37,600
Speaker 4: kind of slows back down a little bit, and then

623
00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:39,680
Speaker 4: you get into training camp and then you have another

624
00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:43,719
Speaker 4: kind of flurry during camp leading right up to cutdown

625
00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:45,479
Speaker 4: day when there's another flurry, and that's when you get

626
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:49,320
Speaker 4: guys who come nick flurries. I could go for mcflurry

627
00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:53,720
Speaker 4: right at a non Darry mcflurir, W'd be great. But yeah,

628
00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:56,280
Speaker 4: it's kind of the the that's kind of how it works.

629
00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:58,120
Speaker 4: And then you get into the regular season. You can

630
00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:00,840
Speaker 4: make moves up until the trade deadline. Like you're right,

631
00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:05,240
Speaker 4: it's a constantly evolving product that is no endpoint.

632
00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:07,160
Speaker 3: That's why I think it's so funny when you get

633
00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:11,080
Speaker 3: kind of this knee jerk reaction to the first twenty

634
00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:14,639
Speaker 3: four forty eight hours of free agency and everyone acts like, oh,

635
00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:17,200
Speaker 3: you're just done now, you know, like it's this, it's draft,

636
00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:19,639
Speaker 3: it's done. Like you have to look a little you know,

637
00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:23,240
Speaker 3: grander scope on it with the opportunities that you have

638
00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:25,520
Speaker 3: and how you watch things fall into place.

639
00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:28,280
Speaker 2: Well, because we get together twice a year. We like

640
00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:30,760
Speaker 2: to keep our eyes out on our neighbors, and in

641
00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:34,440
Speaker 2: this case, I'm talking about the Houston Texans, the Jacksonville Jaguars,

642
00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:38,320
Speaker 2: and of course the Tennessee Tendency Titans, which is where

643
00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:41,640
Speaker 2: I want to start with you. Lara in coomes Tony Pollard. Yeah,

644
00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:46,560
Speaker 2: reportedly from Dallas. Out goes Derrick Henry, who's on his

645
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:49,840
Speaker 2: way reportedly to Baltimore. So that's one of the first.

646
00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:53,120
Speaker 3: Big Really, I really feel that I'm like the air quotes.

647
00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:59,440
Speaker 2: But guys, we've been around here a long time. Lara, myself,

648
00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:03,880
Speaker 2: JJ is coming to Kevin bhind the camera twice a year.

649
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:06,760
Speaker 2: We are facing King Henry, and we knew what he

650
00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:08,400
Speaker 2: was gonna do. There was a couple of times where

651
00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:10,240
Speaker 2: we did shoot shoot him down pretty good. He ended

652
00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:12,440
Speaker 2: up with, you know, fifty nine yards or something like that.

653
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:14,240
Speaker 2: But for the majority of the thing and the majority

654
00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:17,040
Speaker 2: of all the opponents that he has played, he has

655
00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:19,560
Speaker 2: dominated a Hall of Fame type of a back who

656
00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:22,960
Speaker 2: is now pairing up with Lamar Jackson in Baltimore. Good riddance.

657
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:25,040
Speaker 2: We love you, King Henry. Good luck, but we don't

658
00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:26,680
Speaker 2: get to see you twice a year. We're happy about it,

659
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:29,480
Speaker 2: maybe in the playoffs this year. But your thoughts on

660
00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:31,800
Speaker 2: King Henry and what he meant to the Titans, and

661
00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:33,320
Speaker 2: obviously I was playing him twice a year.

662
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:35,160
Speaker 3: I mean I think that he I don't know if

663
00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:36,920
Speaker 3: they had do they have a ring of honor in Tennessee?

664
00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:38,000
Speaker 6: Do they do that like we have?

665
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:40,320
Speaker 3: Like he's a guy who's a ring of honor guy

666
00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:43,920
Speaker 3: for the organization, right or the equivalent whatever they call

667
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:44,360
Speaker 3: it there?

668
00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:48,080
Speaker 6: You know, the sword layer, you know, I don't know.

669
00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:49,680
Speaker 2: The sword.

670
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:54,120
Speaker 6: Because they have a sword. There's you know, playing the ground.

671
00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:55,280
Speaker 1: I don't smelting.

672
00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:56,360
Speaker 6: I don't know.

673
00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:00,200
Speaker 3: So, yeah, a guy who meant a ton that organization.

674
00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:04,120
Speaker 3: But when you look at the kind of sweeping moves

675
00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:07,120
Speaker 3: that were made, you know, moving on from Mike Rabol

676
00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:08,640
Speaker 3: and you know, just across that.

677
00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:10,960
Speaker 6: Organization, you know, what is what are they going to

678
00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:11,720
Speaker 6: do at quarterback?

679
00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:14,600
Speaker 3: You know? To this point, I think it was probably

680
00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:18,080
Speaker 3: the right time. You know, if they have a different

681
00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:20,080
Speaker 3: vision for how they want to build and how they

682
00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:21,720
Speaker 3: want to take this, and then I think it puts

683
00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:24,240
Speaker 3: Dereck Henry in an awesome situation. Yeah, I mean to

684
00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:26,840
Speaker 3: be with Lamar Jackson to be in Baltimore a team

685
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:29,760
Speaker 3: that is you know, going to come back highly motivated,

686
00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:32,280
Speaker 3: you know, going into next season with everything that they have.

687
00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:34,560
Speaker 3: So I think it gives him to me, at this

688
00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:37,200
Speaker 3: point in his career, it's better for him because he

689
00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:42,080
Speaker 3: is on a more established team that has the opportunity

690
00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:44,960
Speaker 3: to make a playoff run, whereas you have Tennessee that

691
00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:47,680
Speaker 3: is in somewhat I don't want to say a full rebuild,

692
00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:50,560
Speaker 3: but a restructure. Would that be accurate to say, you know,

693
00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:52,400
Speaker 3: to that point. So I think it's probably you know,

694
00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:54,680
Speaker 3: good all around. Did Derick Henry probably want to play

695
00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:57,400
Speaker 3: his entire career for the Tennessee Times, Sure, probably would have.

696
00:30:57,640 --> 00:30:59,720
Speaker 3: But when you see the writing on the wall and

697
00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:02,400
Speaker 3: the moves that they're gonna have to make, you don't know.

698
00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:04,280
Speaker 3: I mean, you know, when you talk about the longevity

699
00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:06,000
Speaker 3: that there is at nose tackle, yeah, that's great.

700
00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:07,680
Speaker 6: The longevity at running back.

701
00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:10,480
Speaker 3: Is the completely polar opposite, you know, side of that picture.

702
00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:12,560
Speaker 3: And the level that Derrick Henry has played at for.

703
00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:13,520
Speaker 6: As long as he has.

704
00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:15,959
Speaker 3: I think this is one situation where we're all right,

705
00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:17,080
Speaker 3: this is a guy who's going to go and like

706
00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:18,880
Speaker 3: he's gonna make you know this, you know, kind of

707
00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:21,800
Speaker 3: final few year run to see how he can maximize

708
00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:24,080
Speaker 3: it and you know, try to get an AFC championship,

709
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:25,760
Speaker 3: trying to make a Super Bowl appearance with Baltimore.

710
00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:27,600
Speaker 4: His last game against the Colt he went for twenty

711
00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:29,880
Speaker 4: one for one oh two at a two piece. Yeah,

712
00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:31,520
Speaker 4: I mean, good for you, Derek, good riddance.

713
00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:33,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean that's him. JJ. Let's move on. Let's

714
00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:35,520
Speaker 2: go to Houston. What's going on down there with the

715
00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:37,320
Speaker 2: Texans because they've been busy as well.

716
00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:37,600
Speaker 3: Yeah.

717
00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:40,200
Speaker 4: Jonathan Grenard defensive end, who.

718
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:41,080
Speaker 1: Adds sorry to see.

719
00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:44,360
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm sorry, but really good player. Sorry to see.

720
00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:48,440
Speaker 3: Reportedly, we can we cannot say goodbye to Dinigo Autry.

721
00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:50,320
Speaker 4: Never I was just about to get there. So they're

722
00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:52,960
Speaker 4: replacing him with the guy who, like, we can't get

723
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:56,080
Speaker 4: rid of Daniko Autry, who's now playing four revenge games

724
00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:57,920
Speaker 4: a year within the division.

725
00:31:57,520 --> 00:31:58,080
Speaker 2: No kidding.

726
00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:01,440
Speaker 4: He reportedly goes to Hughes and like, man, I mean,

727
00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:04,600
Speaker 4: din you go, like what a banshee that guy is?

728
00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:06,640
Speaker 4: Like every time I watch him play, he just just

729
00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:08,440
Speaker 4: like hair on fire and I just, I mean.

730
00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:10,840
Speaker 3: I don't know a lot about Damiko Ryans, but just

731
00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:13,200
Speaker 3: in watching him, especially last year, I'm like, oh, that's

732
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:13,640
Speaker 3: a good fit.

733
00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:16,760
Speaker 4: A similar front to how we play. Yeah, that kind

734
00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:20,560
Speaker 4: of attacking style Danico Autry. Yeah, you're you're right about that.

735
00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:24,120
Speaker 4: And then the Texans they swap out Devin Singletary for

736
00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:27,560
Speaker 4: Joe Mixon, a long time Bengals running back coming in there.

737
00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:30,680
Speaker 4: So he's got some pass catching juice. Mixon, you know,

738
00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:32,480
Speaker 4: still good, a good running back.

739
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,160
Speaker 6: You know they saw that last year was all that November.

740
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:38,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, right, with the screen that he took like fifty

741
00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:41,280
Speaker 4: something yards. Yeah, Houston probably needed to get a little

742
00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:42,720
Speaker 4: more efficient in their run game.

743
00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:43,720
Speaker 6: You know.

744
00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:45,240
Speaker 1: See if Mixon can bring that, just.

745
00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:47,640
Speaker 6: Give yeah, just just give CJ. Stud Moore to work with.

746
00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:49,920
Speaker 4: I'm still interested what Houston might have up their sleeve.

747
00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:52,200
Speaker 4: They've kind of for the most part, they they've gone

748
00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:56,360
Speaker 4: about it with some kind of smaller level deals.

749
00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:57,080
Speaker 1: I saw that.

750
00:32:57,080 --> 00:32:58,920
Speaker 4: I think I was reportedly the bringing in Jeff Akudah,

751
00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:01,600
Speaker 4: the cornerback from atlant a former number three overall pick. Like,

752
00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:04,840
Speaker 4: there's some little moves here, but maybe there's something coming

753
00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:05,840
Speaker 4: down the pike for Houston.

754
00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:08,800
Speaker 2: Hey, Jacksonville, let's see what's going on down there. Gabe Davis,

755
00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:10,600
Speaker 2: a guy that a lot of people were on obviously

756
00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:13,760
Speaker 2: out in Buffalo and you know, playing with Josh Allen

757
00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:15,920
Speaker 2: and stuff, so he was a high commodity. He ends

758
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:19,560
Speaker 2: up in Jacksonville similar to almost like it reminded me

759
00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:22,920
Speaker 2: a little bit of the Kirk Deal couple a couple

760
00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:25,080
Speaker 2: of years ago, a similar type of thing like that.

761
00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:28,000
Speaker 2: They also got a veteran, another one from Buffalo and

762
00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:31,400
Speaker 2: Mitch Morse at center. So Doug Peterson and the Jacksonville

763
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:34,680
Speaker 2: Jaguars got Darby at cornerback as well. Yeah, they're moving

764
00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:37,280
Speaker 2: and shaking down there. So as far as bringing in

765
00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:41,000
Speaker 2: new faces, the three of the four AFC South teams

766
00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:43,800
Speaker 2: have done that in a Chris Baller type way, signing

767
00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:46,440
Speaker 2: within with your own. We're seeing that pattern happen right now.

768
00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:48,280
Speaker 2: But what do you think of Jacksonville what they're doing

769
00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:50,440
Speaker 2: down there with Trevor Lawrence to get him another weapon.

770
00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:52,400
Speaker 3: Well, I think that they're one of those one of

771
00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:55,200
Speaker 3: those teams that is typically a little more aggressive in

772
00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:57,960
Speaker 3: free agency, and so this is on par with what

773
00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:00,600
Speaker 3: we have seen them do the last few years with

774
00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:03,960
Speaker 3: those Day one signings that they have made And yeah,

775
00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:07,440
Speaker 3: I think when you look at the collapse of last season,

776
00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:10,920
Speaker 3: you have to evaluate everything and look at, Okay, where

777
00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:14,879
Speaker 3: are these glaring holes or weaknesses that we had that

778
00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:17,400
Speaker 3: kept us out of the playoffs when it looked like

779
00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:20,080
Speaker 3: we should have had a stranglehold on the division, you know,

780
00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:25,440
Speaker 3: a month out, and you know Lawrence is an incredibly

781
00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:26,600
Speaker 3: talented player.

782
00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:29,880
Speaker 6: So you do think that adding weapons.

783
00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:31,920
Speaker 3: For him was a huge priority. And I don't really

784
00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:33,839
Speaker 3: think that they're done in that respect either.

785
00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:36,239
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's kind of the big looming question about them

786
00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:39,759
Speaker 4: right now is with Calvin Ridley, with him not having

787
00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:42,720
Speaker 4: agreed to anything as of right now as we're taping

788
00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:45,239
Speaker 4: this is could there still be room for him back

789
00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:45,920
Speaker 4: in Jacksonville.

790
00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:47,280
Speaker 1: We'll see that. That's going to be interesting.

791
00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:50,160
Speaker 4: Gabe Davis is a like we all remember that playoff

792
00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:52,760
Speaker 4: game against Kansas City where it was like, oh my gosh,

793
00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:56,000
Speaker 4: this guy is like unbelievable. But he's kind of had

794
00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:58,880
Speaker 4: this like weird boom or bust career really in Buffalo

795
00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:02,279
Speaker 4: where you look at last year down the stretch in

796
00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:05,239
Speaker 4: Week twelve, Yeah, Week twelve, he had six for one

797
00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:08,720
Speaker 4: oh five. The next two games he had no catches

798
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:09,640
Speaker 4: on three targets.

799
00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:11,680
Speaker 6: Then he went to Buffalo stat right.

800
00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:14,240
Speaker 4: Then he went Then he went four for one thirty

801
00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:16,799
Speaker 4: against the Chargers, then two for twenty one, zero for

802
00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:20,239
Speaker 4: zero against Miami to end the season. But you gotta

803
00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:22,560
Speaker 4: remember he's got Steffan Diggs on the other side, So

804
00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:23,279
Speaker 4: who's who.

805
00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:25,160
Speaker 2: He's not a possession guy. We're not calling him a

806
00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:27,200
Speaker 2: possession right now. He's kind of that saying he could

807
00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:29,960
Speaker 2: be in this new system with Trevor Lawrence, that he

808
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:32,120
Speaker 2: could be a I'm just saying, yeah.

809
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:32,799
Speaker 1: I mean, we'll see.

810
00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:35,759
Speaker 4: It's going to be interesting that he depending depending on

811
00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:38,880
Speaker 4: what happens with Ridley, he could be maybe more of

812
00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:41,279
Speaker 4: a focal point of an offense. And maybe there's some

813
00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:43,200
Speaker 4: upside there that Jacksonville thinks they see.

814
00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:45,480
Speaker 2: JJ stick around the NFL. Now, just in broad give

815
00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:47,080
Speaker 2: me a couple of signings that we said. I'm gonna

816
00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:49,359
Speaker 2: start with one and hats off to Kirk Cousins. I'm

817
00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:53,200
Speaker 2: just gonna say three and eighty million dollars when it's

818
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:55,479
Speaker 2: all said and done, and he's not done yet.

819
00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:59,920
Speaker 5: What in the career of Michigan State they take our

820
00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:01,960
Speaker 5: three in the first I go get Cousins in the

821
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:04,520
Speaker 5: same draft in the fifth and he's the one that's

822
00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:06,560
Speaker 5: you know, has come out and made over a quarter

823
00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:07,480
Speaker 5: of a billion dollars.

824
00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:09,480
Speaker 2: He's in Atlanta. That was a big one. We saw

825
00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:12,400
Speaker 2: Josh Jacobs go to Green Bay. JJ's touch on some

826
00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:13,200
Speaker 2: free agent signings.

827
00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:16,640
Speaker 4: Boy, if you needed a guard this year, you got

828
00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:19,840
Speaker 4: to pay a pretty penny for that. The the amount,

829
00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:22,640
Speaker 4: the amount of money that was thrown around in the

830
00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:26,960
Speaker 4: guard market was I think surprising to some people. Hunt

831
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:31,120
Speaker 4: from uh the yeah, Hunt when to Carolina. You know,

832
00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:34,560
Speaker 4: you saw Landon Dickerson reportedly sign the biggest contract ever

833
00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:37,120
Speaker 4: given out to a guard with him re upping with

834
00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:38,160
Speaker 4: the Eagles.

835
00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:42,040
Speaker 3: And what do people think when Quentin Nelson signed that

836
00:36:42,080 --> 00:36:42,959
Speaker 3: big Oh, it's a lot.

837
00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:43,919
Speaker 6: Of money to invest in the guard.

838
00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:46,160
Speaker 4: You know, It's like, you know what, I even thought

839
00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:48,760
Speaker 4: back further to six years ago right now where everyone's

840
00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:51,479
Speaker 4: debating she really took a guard in the top ten

841
00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:54,080
Speaker 4: of the draft, Like Quentin Nelson's at the combine getting

842
00:36:54,160 --> 00:36:58,680
Speaker 4: questions if he's gonna switch the tackle? Yeah no, Like

843
00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:00,680
Speaker 4: I kind of worked out pretty good for the Colts

844
00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:01,200
Speaker 4: on that one.

845
00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:04,719
Speaker 2: Okay, free agency is among us, right now, and like

846
00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:06,400
Speaker 2: I said, there's so many deals that are going on.

847
00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:09,200
Speaker 2: They're happening as we speak right now. Guys, I want

848
00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:11,200
Speaker 2: to close out with this. I'm just going to ask you.

849
00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:14,719
Speaker 2: It's a crystal ball question and the answer isn't right.

850
00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:17,799
Speaker 2: It isn't wrong. But the activity from here on out

851
00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:20,480
Speaker 2: until we get to the NFL Draft, as far as

852
00:37:20,560 --> 00:37:23,799
Speaker 2: new faces on this roster, where are you guys at

Speaker 1: We'll see some. We will.

00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:30,320
Speaker 4: It's not just going to be keeping your own and

Speaker 4: you know, kind of going from there like well, you know,

857
00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:34,680
Speaker 4: Kenny Moore. The second still is kind of an unanswered question,

858
00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:38,880
Speaker 4: but beyond that, it's we'll see some new faces.

859
00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:39,400

Speaker 2: anything else.

899
00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:13,440
Speaker 4: I can't wait for this podcast to be outdated by

900
00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:14,120
Speaker 4: the time it's wise.

901
00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:18,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I'm just a little irritated that Selection

902
00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:19,759
Speaker 3: Sunday is so late this year.

903
00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:22,919
Speaker 6: Just this week is like conference tournaments. Now we're gonna

904
00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:26,319
Speaker 6: so now right, let's let's go.

905
00:39:26,560 --> 00:39:29,320
Speaker 3: So yeah, that's my that's my Indiana inside of me.

906
00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:31,680
Speaker 3: But yeah, that's that's my kind of rant to end

907
00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:34,960
Speaker 3: this podcast completely unrelated. But I guess it does provide

908
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:36,879
Speaker 3: somewhat of a buffer between like the wave of free

909
00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:38,920
Speaker 3: agency and then you get a little okay, and now

910
00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:40,000
Speaker 3: we'll go into college basketball.

911
00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:42,719
Speaker 2: I just go one college basketball question. We're gonna cut

912
00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:45,399
Speaker 2: it off. Does Indiana make the Big Dance this year?

913
00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:49,319
Speaker 3: I probably have to win Big Ten tournament to get in.

914
00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:51,040
Speaker 3: I don't know, they don't have any quality wins. I

915
00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:53,280
Speaker 3: haven't you know, I need. I need our friend Connor

Speaker 4: this year four Winds the first win in the SEC

925

00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:30,440
Speaker 3: season finale.

935
00:40:30,040 --> 00:40:31,320
Speaker 6: Of the Hoosiers over.

936
00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:33,960
Speaker 2: The weekend the locker room? Yes?

937
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:34,399

00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:34,680
Speaker 2: Is that?

939
00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:36,120
Speaker 6: The way that you know?

940
00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:39,080
Speaker 3: Our head coach is kind of ingrained himself in marching

941
00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:41,000
Speaker 3: it Indiana. I take him the little college basketball and

942
00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:43,799
Speaker 3: he has been to Purdue as well, so and I

943
00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:46,520
Speaker 3: believe maybe a Butler gate. So he's making all the stongs,

944
00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:48,640
Speaker 3: so he's not playing favoritism to the Hoosiers.

945
00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:50,239
Speaker 6: He you know, went to West Left guys.
