10
00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:38,520
Speaker 1: of the Official Cults Podcast presented by wind Beat. Matt

00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:41,360
Speaker 1: Taylor's here, Alara Overton's here, Casey Valley is here. At

12
00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:44,680
Speaker 1: Grand Park in Westfield. The Cults just wrapped up their

13
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:48,960
Speaker 1: practice on Tuesday, the first hadded practice of training camp.

14
00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:52,040
Speaker 1: Matt Ryan said, this is when the real football begins.

15
00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:56,600
Speaker 1: If football starts today, Guys and Fitz started and then

16
00:00:56,680 --> 00:01:00,639
Speaker 1: finished with some sprints, some suicide casters. Yeah, look assers there.

17
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:02,520
Speaker 1: At the end of the day. The end of end

18
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:06,480
Speaker 1: of practice, the Colts did a two minute sorry, a

19
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:10,080
Speaker 1: two point conversion drill where they had three plays from

20
00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:12,200
Speaker 1: the two yard line. The defense won two out of three,

21
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:15,039
Speaker 1: so the offense had to run gassers. Matt Ryan took

22
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 1: a little bit of a tumble on one's Yeah, yeah

23
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:20,039
Speaker 1: he did. Yeah, a lot of people were sliding around

24
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:22,440
Speaker 1: out there because there was a huge rainstorm. Was at

25
00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:26,000
Speaker 1: Sunday morning, Monday morning, Yeah, Monday morning, Monday. Do you

26
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:31,400
Speaker 1: know what days are? Yeah, it's just by practice number

27
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 1: at this point. But it's a little I mean, the

28
00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 1: grounds crew has done a phenomenal job, but it's just

29
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:38,800
Speaker 1: a little bit of it's a little soggy underneath because

30
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:41,400
Speaker 1: and you saw guys sliding all over the place. So

31
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:42,880
Speaker 1: we got a lot to get to in this podcast,

32
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:46,000
Speaker 1: we're going to talk about today's practice, some general observations

33
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 1: from training camp players who have stood out the up

34
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 1: tempo Colts offense that we've seen over the last couple

35
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 1: of weeks. Nahim Hines wide receivers your mail bag questions.

36
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:57,400
Speaker 1: A lot to get to, but let's just jumped into

37
00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 1: it with this first padded practice. Frank Reich said that,

38
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 1: you know, the defense usually is ahead on the first

39
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:05,840
Speaker 1: day of pads. It's physical, the defense is able to

40
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 1: kind of get after it a little bit more. We

41
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 1: saw Larry you came up to me during practice at

42
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 1: one point, you're like Bobbio caracas everywhere today. You know,

43
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:15,839
Speaker 1: we saw some good plays from Zaire Franklin, Kenny Moore,

44
00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:19,600
Speaker 1: the second Brandon Facon got in there. It was a

45
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 1: probably a good day for the defense. But again that's

46
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:26,040
Speaker 1: probably to be expected when you're getting used to getting

47
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:27,960
Speaker 1: the pads and the defense is always a little more

48
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,760
Speaker 1: eager to do the hitting than the offenses to be

49
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:34,400
Speaker 1: generally kick those pads on. But I did, I felt

50
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:36,040
Speaker 1: like that, and I said this to Matey when we

51
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,079
Speaker 1: got things started. Mattey pulled me up to address what

52
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 1: was another fantastic crowd out here. I mean, I think

53
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,760
Speaker 1: that I would consider it a near sellout. I don't

54
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 1: think it was an official sellout, but I mean there

55
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:49,639
Speaker 1: was very little, very little sitting room in those bleachers

56
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 1: and everywhere across the field the standing room only areas

57
00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:55,280
Speaker 1: were filled as well. But I said, and when Matey asked,

58
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:56,639
Speaker 1: what are you looking forward to, Gus, I kind of

59
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 1: want to see this linebackers group. You know, of course

60
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:02,960
Speaker 1: EJ having a huge role with Darius Leonard on Pop

61
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:06,240
Speaker 1: right now, and he stepped up as you expect him

62
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:08,840
Speaker 1: to do. He is thriving in that position. With the

63
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:12,000
Speaker 1: opportunity he has and then flying around next to Zaire

64
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 1: Franklin and Bobby Ocaca. Bobby had at least two pass

65
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:18,519
Speaker 1: breakups that I witnessed, and I was kind of bouncing

66
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,320
Speaker 1: around in a couple different spots. But that's kind of

67
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:24,200
Speaker 1: what you've come to expect Bobby. Bobby is like such

68
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:29,119
Speaker 1: an instinctive smart football player that he's always in those

69
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:34,400
Speaker 1: positions where it basically he is successful, you know, positions

70
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:37,880
Speaker 1: himself well to capitalize on opportunities when they come his way. Matte,

71
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:40,960
Speaker 1: what did you just kind of take away from today's practice, Well,

72
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 1: same same sort of thing. You know. Obviously the physicality

73
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 1: ramped up, which is good, and that's going to give

74
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:49,000
Speaker 1: us a clear observation because so far, you know, it's

75
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:51,600
Speaker 1: not like you're respecting the things that have happened so

76
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 1: far in camp, Like you're not trying to downplay the

77
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 1: receivers that are getting separation on the secondary. You know,

78
00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:01,880
Speaker 1: you're not downplaying the defense in that's you know, going

79
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 1: around to tackle things like that. But once the pads

80
00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 1: come on, then you get a true gauge of just

81
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:09,240
Speaker 1: how real it is if you're having a good camp.

82
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 1: So in that regard, I was really happy to see

83
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:15,920
Speaker 1: the wide receivers continue to make place and be consistent.

84
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,920
Speaker 1: You know, Paris Campbell continue to make place today and

85
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:22,159
Speaker 1: get separation with the pads on same thing with Ashton

86
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,680
Speaker 1: Dolon and I think probably the biggest aspect of the

87
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:29,240
Speaker 1: receivers in terms of being not surprised by. But what

88
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:33,760
Speaker 1: you want to see is Alec Pierce continues to beat

89
00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 1: press man because as a rookie wide receiver, we hear

90
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:40,119
Speaker 1: it all the time. That's the toughest thing that guys

91
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 1: deal with. That's the toughest part of acclimating to the

92
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,560
Speaker 1: NFL as It's the toughest part of the evaluation of

93
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:47,839
Speaker 1: these guys. That's what Morocco browns out over the weekend

94
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:49,600
Speaker 1: that the toughest thing to evaluate is can't they get

95
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:51,960
Speaker 1: off press? And you know, even a guy like Alec

96
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,640
Speaker 1: Pierce last year, you know, Cincinnati was a really good

97
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:57,799
Speaker 1: team that made the final four in the College Football Playoff.

98
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:00,960
Speaker 1: But to your point, like Morocco Brown said, throughout the

99
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:04,920
Speaker 1: course of his career at Cincinnati, especially at Cincinnati where

100
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:06,880
Speaker 1: you're not in a what do they call it to

101
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,680
Speaker 1: five conference, you know, he's probably only going up against

102
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:15,040
Speaker 1: one or two dudes, you know, quote unquote bonafid NFL

103
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:19,520
Speaker 1: future players in his four years of football there with

104
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:22,080
Speaker 1: the Bearcats. So for him to come out and acclimate

105
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:25,160
Speaker 1: and beat press man to man consistently and doing it

106
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:27,840
Speaker 1: today in pads for the first time, man, that was

107
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 1: really good to see because, like we've talked about all offseason,

108
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:33,800
Speaker 1: Alec Pierce has to be a top two or three

109
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 1: receiver for this offense to have success. And one of

110
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,400
Speaker 1: the things I'm sticking with Alec Pierce that I've loved

111
00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:41,560
Speaker 1: to see, and I know it's definitely probably a planned thing.

112
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,480
Speaker 1: You notice who he's going up against essentially every time

113
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:46,120
Speaker 1: he's lined up is to find Gilmour. So if you

114
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:47,560
Speaker 1: want to know the best way to kind of get

115
00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:49,800
Speaker 1: acclimated to the NFL, here's the guy that was the

116
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:51,800
Speaker 1: defensive player of the Year in two thousands. And the

117
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:53,680
Speaker 1: Colts did a lot of the love and the Colts

118
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:55,520
Speaker 1: did a lot of red zone stuff today and one

119
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:58,799
Speaker 1: on one drills, seven on seven and in team periods,

120
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:01,840
Speaker 1: and Alec Pierce can enuously was involved. You saw a

121
00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:04,440
Speaker 1: lot of fourteen down or inside the end zone, and

122
00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 1: we saw Matt Ryan getting some details down with Alec

123
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 1: Pierce on the sideline. I thought that was a really

124
00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:13,280
Speaker 1: illustrative observation that we made. Lara and I were standing

125
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:14,760
Speaker 1: next to you. Through Lara just kind of hits me

126
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:17,839
Speaker 1: and she look over here and here's Matt Ryan. Promise

127
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 1: I'm not always that bossy guy or violent. Yeah, but yeah,

128
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,160
Speaker 1: you know, there's Matt Ryan working with Alec Pierce. And

129
00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:26,040
Speaker 1: you know, it looked like they're working on kind of

130
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:28,320
Speaker 1: like jump angles and how to throw the ball away

131
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:30,400
Speaker 1: from coverage. And then we saw it in seven on

132
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 1: seven Matt Ryan hit out Pierce a couple times on

133
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:35,680
Speaker 1: passes that looked similar to what they were working on.

134
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,840
Speaker 1: And you just love that level of detail that Matt

135
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:42,039
Speaker 1: Ryan can bring. And I asked Matt Ryan after practice today,

136
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:44,440
Speaker 1: how have you learned over your fourteen years of how

137
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:47,640
Speaker 1: to make those conversations effective? Because it's one thing for

138
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:50,040
Speaker 1: a quarterback to go in and say, hey, this is

139
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 1: how it's done, this is how I want it, but

140
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,800
Speaker 1: he said it has to be an open conversation, an

141
00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:57,600
Speaker 1: open dialogue where Matt Ryan can say, look, this is

142
00:06:57,640 --> 00:06:59,560
Speaker 1: how I want to do it, but how can you

143
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,040
Speaker 1: do it? And you know Matt Ryan has worked with

144
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:06,200
Speaker 1: Julio Jones and Tony Gonzalez and Roddy White and Kyle Pitts,

145
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:09,600
Speaker 1: some really talented players during his fourteen years in Atlanta.

146
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,760
Speaker 1: Coming here to Indianapolis, now he can take those lessons

147
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:15,960
Speaker 1: and those can be very beneficial to these cults wide

148
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:18,720
Speaker 1: receivers as he's working on, Hey, getting to know where

149
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:20,920
Speaker 1: I want to place the ball, where you like the ball,

150
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 1: how to get it away from coverage, things like that.

151
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 1: It's also an indication of how eager Alec Pierce is

152
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:28,560
Speaker 1: to learn that. Something that we heard from Reggie Wayne

153
00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:30,760
Speaker 1: early in the week after the Colts had walked through

154
00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:33,840
Speaker 1: on Monday, as he was talking about how eager Alec

155
00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:36,480
Speaker 1: Pierce is to absorb everything. He was saying that some

156
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,160
Speaker 1: of the receivers are actually mad when the meetings end

157
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:44,000
Speaker 1: because they want more time in there there a yeah, exactly,

158
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,280
Speaker 1: keep talking to us. And he said that, you know,

159
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:49,560
Speaker 1: the biggest thing that he was trying to instill in

160
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:54,160
Speaker 1: a rookie like Alec is just to not stress, you know,

161
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:58,360
Speaker 1: to to not be forceful, and you're gonna make mistakes.

162
00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:02,040
Speaker 1: So yeah, exactly, it's it's still the same game, Yes,

163
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 1: it's a different level. And he said that that was

164
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:06,080
Speaker 1: before night practice. Somebody said walk out there and just

165
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,880
Speaker 1: you know, like let it all go, Let the plays

166
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:13,280
Speaker 1: come to you, let things unfold, because it's you know,

167
00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 1: he's he's in a position where it's all happening very quickly.

168
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,440
Speaker 1: But he's supported by guys who are going to put

169
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:21,560
Speaker 1: him in position to thrive and to be successful, whether

170
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:24,280
Speaker 1: that's from the coaching staff, whether that's from his teammates,

171
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:26,840
Speaker 1: his quarterback of course, guys. Isn't it great that this

172
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,680
Speaker 1: is what we're talking about right now? So we're talking

173
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:33,120
Speaker 1: about don't asks, I'm talking about being dehydrate. This is

174
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:36,640
Speaker 1: the first bottle of water I've had all day. I

175
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:41,520
Speaker 1: know it's a little overcast today, but Starbucks Ventie on

176
00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:43,439
Speaker 1: the gay where this is what we're talking about. We're

177
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:48,080
Speaker 1: not talking about rare bone fragments and feet. I don't

178
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:51,679
Speaker 1: jink said not on everything. Possibly we've made it through

179
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:57,880
Speaker 1: a week of camp and we're having very normal camp conversations.

180
00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:01,960
Speaker 1: That's just refreshing after and I wasn't here for all

181
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:05,040
Speaker 1: of it. But you got last year with the again

182
00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:09,439
Speaker 1: the bone fragments, which was bizarre twenty twenty weren't really

183
00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:14,200
Speaker 1: even here because also twenty one it was are you vaccine? Right? Yeah?

184
00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:16,480
Speaker 1: Who was still? Look it was it was the w

185
00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:18,960
Speaker 1: It was funny. I it went up and I hadn't

186
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:21,280
Speaker 1: actually said hi to some people in the Colts front office,

187
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:22,760
Speaker 1: even though I've worked here for like a year and

188
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 1: a half, and one of them today was like, oh,

189
00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:26,880
Speaker 1: so I would ask you how you're settling in, but

190
00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:27,800
Speaker 1: you've been here for a year and a half. And

191
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:29,400
Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, it's because of COVID. Like last year,

192
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:31,559
Speaker 1: I didn't really talk to a lot of people, but

193
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,439
Speaker 1: so you know, last year you had all that weirdness.

194
00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:38,400
Speaker 1: Twenty was the full pandemic year nineteen. Obviously we know

195
00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:40,160
Speaker 1: what happened in camp that year with Andrew Luck, and

196
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:43,439
Speaker 1: the storyline's there. Yeah, I know this is normal. I

197
00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:46,559
Speaker 1: know again, who knows what tomorrow will bring, but this

198
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:49,240
Speaker 1: is normal and for for you guys who have been

199
00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:52,800
Speaker 1: here maintained casey for for the duration of this the

200
00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:57,040
Speaker 1: law of averages, even so you're being pessimistic. I get no,

201
00:09:57,280 --> 00:09:59,640
Speaker 1: I get I get no. I'm saying the law of averages.

202
00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 1: Say this is this is you know, this is like

203
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:05,319
Speaker 1: when you when you when you shell out, you know,

204
00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 1: you're your sixth bench player on a baseball team. These

205
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:12,040
Speaker 1: do you know, let's go. But but you're right, you

206
00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:14,520
Speaker 1: know it's this is this is how it should be,

207
00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:17,960
Speaker 1: you know. I mean, uh, not to get too sentimental,

208
00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:20,400
Speaker 1: but you know, I'm dropping my my five year old

209
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:23,280
Speaker 1: off for kindergarten tomorrow. And we've been talking with the

210
00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:25,000
Speaker 1: principle and going to the back to school night and

211
00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:27,160
Speaker 1: she's like, this is how it's supposed to be. You

212
00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:30,319
Speaker 1: know that we're back to in person school, hands on,

213
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:33,560
Speaker 1: just like here at Grand Park, we're back to autographs,

214
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 1: hands on, you know, no more six feet of distance

215
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:41,400
Speaker 1: and us versus them on the vaccination rates and how

216
00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:44,000
Speaker 1: you feel about that. It got all political and it

217
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:46,679
Speaker 1: just settled down. Focus on football, do your job. It's

218
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:48,839
Speaker 1: so refreshing about to just keep it simple. The most

219
00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:51,079
Speaker 1: controversial thing we've had to discuss to this point is

220
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:55,640
Speaker 1: how is Shaquille Leonard being regarded on the roster or

221
00:10:55,720 --> 00:11:00,040
Speaker 1: everything like that. That's been the big conversation. Yeah, and

222
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:01,920
Speaker 1: this is so this is so silly. I mean it's

223
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,640
Speaker 1: not silly, but isn't it great? You talk about being

224
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:07,760
Speaker 1: back to normal I mean about fifteen minutes ago, when

225
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:10,120
Speaker 1: the players were just coming off the field, all you

226
00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:13,760
Speaker 1: hear is these people screaming for j and Man Ryan

227
00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:17,120
Speaker 1: and nhem. I mean everybody's It's awesome to see the

228
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:20,320
Speaker 1: fans out here being able to for Jonathan Taylor's sake.

229
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:21,839
Speaker 1: I mean, you get to know this guy because the

230
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:24,560
Speaker 1: last two years have been what we've talked about. I mean,

231
00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:27,200
Speaker 1: I think all of us here. When you walk through

232
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:29,679
Speaker 1: a room with Matt Ryan Jonathan Taylor, I mean you're like,

233
00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:32,560
Speaker 1: I'll go wherever you want me to go. I'm glad

234
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:35,360
Speaker 1: that the fans are getting a taste of that. On Saturday,

235
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:38,240
Speaker 1: I was helping JT get over to an appearance on

236
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:40,760
Speaker 1: NFL Network because NFL Network was set up going live

237
00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 1: from six to ten, and Matt Ryan went over first.

238
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:45,679
Speaker 1: So I was like, okay, he has a couple of minutes.

239
00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:48,199
Speaker 1: And there were a few fans who are on the field,

240
00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:50,120
Speaker 1: Oh can we get a picture of j T shirt?

241
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:53,120
Speaker 1: So like there it's like literally one family. I turned

242
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:56,640
Speaker 1: my head for seven seconds and I turned back and

243
00:11:56,760 --> 00:12:00,840
Speaker 1: there are seventy five job with ball John the Taylor

244
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:03,559
Speaker 1: jersey and all that. It is like a mob that

245
00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:07,520
Speaker 1: follows him everywhere. It's it's incredible. I mean it was.

246
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:09,400
Speaker 1: It's like I blinked and I was like, well, now,

247
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:12,280
Speaker 1: how am I going to get him to network? Like oh,

248
00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:14,920
Speaker 1: this sounds this sounds dumb, but I'm almost worried about

249
00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:17,760
Speaker 1: his you know, his cheek muscles, because the dude has

250
00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 1: not had a has not had not a smile on

251
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:22,000
Speaker 1: his face the entire time of it out here. I mean,

252
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:24,600
Speaker 1: he is, he is embracing all of this and it's

253
00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:27,240
Speaker 1: just wonderful to see. I'm pumped for it. How about

254
00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:30,440
Speaker 1: on Saturday night practice started at seven, people were lined up,

255
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:34,600
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, thirty grand. When I got here, I looked

256
00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,120
Speaker 1: over and I was like, wow, there's not a seat

257
00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:38,640
Speaker 1: to be had, and this is at I don't know,

258
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:40,880
Speaker 1: five thirty I strolled in. I mean I was. They

259
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:42,720
Speaker 1: weren't when even on the practice field for their hour

260
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:44,720
Speaker 1: and a half. But that is that is what you're seeing.

261
00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:48,200
Speaker 1: That was the the second practice that's been at capacity.

262
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 1: The first one was Kid's Day. The second practice, the

263
00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:52,920
Speaker 1: first one that was outdoors. We're about to have another

264
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:56,560
Speaker 1: one on Sunday. That practice is at capacity. Tickets are

265
00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:59,600
Speaker 1: no longer available. Unreal and the vibes at this place

266
00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:02,920
Speaker 1: are They're just great. And imagine what it's going to

267
00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:05,719
Speaker 1: be like come joint practices coming. Oh man, yeah, a

268
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:07,640
Speaker 1: couple of weeks from now. I mean, you know it's

269
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:09,800
Speaker 1: kind of talking about like this is real football when

270
00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:11,760
Speaker 1: you put the pads on and all that. Think about

271
00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:16,200
Speaker 1: when you have what another two weeks, another weekend, a half, whatever,

272
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:20,280
Speaker 1: and now you get hit somebody else, cap Stan Campbell.

273
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:26,440
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna post up at the Starbucks over here

274
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:28,839
Speaker 1: on State Route thirty two and just wait for Dan Campbell.

275
00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:31,679
Speaker 1: Wasn't it? Can't wait? Razorbacks with the team. Didn't I

276
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:34,200
Speaker 1: see that on social media? He's doing razorbacks with the team.

277
00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:36,559
Speaker 1: I don't know. I wouldn't see that. All the conditionings

278
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:41,599
Speaker 1: like no rink, no, no, like razorbacks, like you know

279
00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:43,360
Speaker 1: you've never heard that. You go, well, it's what they

280
00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:46,040
Speaker 1: did after practice today. It's five gas Okay, that's what

281
00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:47,920
Speaker 1: we used to call because well we used to we

282
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:49,920
Speaker 1: used to call them razorbacks because you go to the five,

283
00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:52,199
Speaker 1: hit the deck, get up, go back, got it, go

284
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 1: to the ten, hit the deck. We used to call

285
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:58,240
Speaker 1: them radio that it Let's go man, you know, say

286
00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:00,760
Speaker 1: what you wanted about Dan Campbell, but at least anything

287
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,160
Speaker 1: he's gonna ask of the team, he's gonna do it well.

288
00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:07,600
Speaker 1: Also think about the added uh encouragement of hard knocks

289
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:15,120
Speaker 1: as well. So they're following some friends coming back. Yeah,

290
00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:19,640
Speaker 1: but before we get to that joint practice. Um, you

291
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:22,120
Speaker 1: know there's still we still have one another week, week

292
00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 1: and a half. Yeah, ish um, some storylines just that

293
00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:29,720
Speaker 1: we're following. We've talked a lot about Paris Campbell so far,

294
00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:32,120
Speaker 1: whether it's been on air, it's been on the radio,

295
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:35,360
Speaker 1: it's been on Colts dot com. Um, but let's talk

296
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:37,600
Speaker 1: about some other standout players that we've seen. I want

297
00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:41,080
Speaker 1: to throw one out there to start here, Brandon Facing. Yeah,

298
00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:44,240
Speaker 1: Isaiah Rodgers is having himself a great camp. So this

299
00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:46,720
Speaker 1: is you could pick one of those two guys and

300
00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:49,000
Speaker 1: you would be right. I'm gonna talk about Facing though,

301
00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:53,560
Speaker 1: because he's he's someone who is only played in this defense.

302
00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 1: He's only been with Gus Bradley and Ron Milis while

303
00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 1: he's been on an active NFL roster in his career.

304
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,520
Speaker 1: And not only is he out there making plays because

305
00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:05,280
Speaker 1: he's he's good in man coverage, he's good when he's

306
00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:07,520
Speaker 1: in zone and he's he's got eyes on the backfield,

307
00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:09,640
Speaker 1: on the quarterback, and he can make plays there. But

308
00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:12,760
Speaker 1: I've seen face in a number of times during practice

309
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:16,200
Speaker 1: off to the side on the sideline, coaching guys up

310
00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:18,960
Speaker 1: on technique. And I asked Ron Mileas about that on

311
00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:22,840
Speaker 1: Monday and he said, you know, when when Brandon tells

312
00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:24,760
Speaker 1: you to do something, he's probably going to be right

313
00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:28,640
Speaker 1: about how we teach the technique. And having that translator

314
00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:31,920
Speaker 1: for guys in the back end and someone who's playing

315
00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:36,840
Speaker 1: at a high level Brandon facing at double digit pass breakups. Yeah, Yeah,

316
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:41,080
Speaker 1: having that guy I think has been really sneakily important

317
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:44,120
Speaker 1: for this cold secondary. He's someone who is absolutely going

318
00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:45,800
Speaker 1: to be on the field quite a bit on Sundays.

319
00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:47,680
Speaker 1: And I've been impressed with them coming out here. You

320
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 1: mentioned sneaky. He's kind of sneaky. Long is, Yeah, realize

321
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:53,120
Speaker 1: it until they got out in some of the eleven

322
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:56,000
Speaker 1: on eleven type of situations, because you see them all

323
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:58,520
Speaker 1: kind of separately over the course of you know, the

324
00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:00,360
Speaker 1: past few weeks leading up to camp, and then he's

325
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:02,920
Speaker 1: out there and I'm like, man, he is disciplined, like

326
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:05,120
Speaker 1: you said, but he also has like great length and

327
00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:07,600
Speaker 1: quickness also to capitalize on in that group. And we

328
00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:09,840
Speaker 1: talked to him last week and I joke with him

329
00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:11,400
Speaker 1: and he kind of agreed though He's like, I got

330
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:14,880
Speaker 1: a master's degree in this defense, you know, because he's

331
00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:18,280
Speaker 1: got fifty six career games all within Gus we trust,

332
00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:22,200
Speaker 1: you know, to steal a line from Jeffrey Gorman right there,

333
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:24,360
Speaker 1: But it makes a lot of sense because you've had

334
00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:27,280
Speaker 1: Gus Bradley the entire time. If you're Brandon Facon and

335
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:30,760
Speaker 1: Ron Milas, so I mean, you know exactly what they're

336
00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:32,640
Speaker 1: going to say before they even say it. So he

337
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:34,880
Speaker 1: can act as a coach on the field and get

338
00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:37,920
Speaker 1: the rest of this defense sort of acclimated, especially the

339
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:40,680
Speaker 1: guys in the back end. And there's just some subtle

340
00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:43,000
Speaker 1: teaching going on, not a whole lot, but to your point,

341
00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:46,520
Speaker 1: you know, Brandon Facing's given some you know, minor instruction

342
00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:48,720
Speaker 1: to a guy like you know, Stefan Gilmore. But what

343
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:52,440
Speaker 1: are you gonna say to a Gilmore is someone who,

344
00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:54,600
Speaker 1: when we talk, would corrupt that. When we talk to

345
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:57,280
Speaker 1: Ron Milas, he said, you know Gilmore, He's like, I

346
00:16:57,280 --> 00:16:58,680
Speaker 1: don't you know, I don't want to call him a superstar,

347
00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:00,840
Speaker 1: but he's got he's got a plaque on his wall. Yeah,

348
00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:03,280
Speaker 1: and he said all I hear from him is yes, coach,

349
00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:07,040
Speaker 1: And you love that out of the guy. Gilmar is

350
00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:09,080
Speaker 1: learning a new scheme and a new way to play

351
00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:18,600
Speaker 1: play defenseasure and I'm hungry, child man. Let's talk about

352
00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:21,880
Speaker 1: some standouts. Go ahead, Okay, Casey, I want to start

353
00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:24,200
Speaker 1: with you on this. You know, I've actually been very

354
00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:28,000
Speaker 1: impressed by the young tied end Drew Ogletree. Yeah, yeah,

355
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,440
Speaker 1: I have been impressed. I think it's one of those

356
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:32,760
Speaker 1: things that he was kind of an under the radar guy.

357
00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:35,719
Speaker 1: Not I mean everybody talked about Gilani, and I mean

358
00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:38,200
Speaker 1: when you look at Gilani, the dude is just massive,

359
00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:40,760
Speaker 1: and I mean he is learning. I mean he's still

360
00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:43,240
Speaker 1: in that learning process just like Ogletree. But I have

361
00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:46,359
Speaker 1: seen some flashes that have been very very promising for him.

362
00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:48,880
Speaker 1: And that size. I mean that that's where it's going

363
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,640
Speaker 1: to get to that point where you just can't teach

364
00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:53,800
Speaker 1: the size. So we're watching red Zone, We're watching them

365
00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:56,240
Speaker 1: and it just stands out. So those are He's been

366
00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:57,719
Speaker 1: one of those guys. But then I also look at

367
00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:01,280
Speaker 1: another youngster I mean, Julian Aman, it's been impressive where

368
00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:03,239
Speaker 1: he is. But I think also looking at what Nick

369
00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:06,440
Speaker 1: Cross has done already this piece, he has been very,

370
00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:09,520
Speaker 1: very impressive, just looking like he just belongs. It's like

371
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:12,159
Speaker 1: he looks like comprehended that he's ready to go, and

372
00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:14,760
Speaker 1: this is his defense. I'm actually a little bit surprised

373
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:18,760
Speaker 1: to a slight degree because I know Rodny McCloud started

374
00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 1: on pup he had that slight stint. But I mean

375
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:24,439
Speaker 1: you're talking about one hundred and twenty three games versus

376
00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:27,720
Speaker 1: one week of practice, right, and Nick Cross has taken

377
00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:30,439
Speaker 1: every rep with the first rod rod McLoud isn't one

378
00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:32,880
Speaker 1: hundred He's not one hundred percent yet, he said today

379
00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:35,800
Speaker 1: he's close, right, But I mean, look, they have a

380
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:39,120
Speaker 1: good relationship Nick Cross. The first football camp he went

381
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:42,439
Speaker 1: to was Rodney mcclouds. That's something we learned today from

382
00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:46,520
Speaker 1: Rodney mcluds. Yeah, they went to Tamatha Catholic in Maryland.

383
00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:50,680
Speaker 1: They're both alums from there, and uh, you know, Rodney

384
00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:52,800
Speaker 1: McLoud said, hey, Nicks, Nick has been on his radar

385
00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:54,840
Speaker 1: for a little bit. Um you figured that was probably

386
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:58,240
Speaker 1: middle school. He went to that camp, like twelve thirteen

387
00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:00,320
Speaker 1: years and so so then Zach Key for a great

388
00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:02,399
Speaker 1: follow up question, and he asked him, do you feel

389
00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:04,639
Speaker 1: accomplished that you've been in the NFL that longer? Do

390
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:06,879
Speaker 1: you feel old? And Rody McLoud goes, yeah, I think

391
00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:08,760
Speaker 1: I just feel old. Yeah, I mean Nick Cross is

392
00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:12,200
Speaker 1: twenty he's twenty. Yeah, he's the youngest guy on the team. Yeah,

393
00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:14,040
Speaker 1: you know, and we Joe he can't buy a beer

394
00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:16,919
Speaker 1: just yet. He willed next month. But yeah, I've been

395
00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:20,280
Speaker 1: a little bit surprised that he's taken every rep. But

396
00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:22,440
Speaker 1: it makes sense. I mean, it's baptins them by fire.

397
00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:26,680
Speaker 1: Roddy McLeod knows the defense. He's whatever he's asked to do,

398
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:28,639
Speaker 1: He's going to be, you know, a guy that can

399
00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:31,439
Speaker 1: come in and be called upon to produce and perform

400
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:34,000
Speaker 1: when whatever role. But I kind of like it just

401
00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:37,320
Speaker 1: get Cross as much acclamation as possible so that if

402
00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:40,040
Speaker 1: he does have to start week one, you feel comfortable

403
00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:42,600
Speaker 1: because you've had five weeks of time on task. Here's

404
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 1: the other thing with that, I asked Rodney today, you

405
00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:47,560
Speaker 1: know what about the strong safety position where we've primarily

406
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:50,240
Speaker 1: seen Nick Cross, that Julian is the free safety, what

407
00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:53,639
Speaker 1: stressors come with that position and Rody mclouds. It's a

408
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:57,200
Speaker 1: lot of communication. It's getting the line set, adjusting the linebackers,

409
00:19:57,440 --> 00:19:58,840
Speaker 1: and for Nick Cross to be able to come in

410
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:03,359
Speaker 1: and be able to make those those communication I make

411
00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:05,200
Speaker 1: those communications is a bad way to put it. To

412
00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:08,639
Speaker 1: be able to communicate that properly and get guys in

413
00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:12,440
Speaker 1: the right spots and set. That's I mean, that's incredible,

414
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:14,919
Speaker 1: that's great. You love to hear that. On Saturday night,

415
00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:16,639
Speaker 1: I sat for a bit kind of off on the

416
00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:18,960
Speaker 1: sidelines where those guys were coming off the field, and

417
00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:21,119
Speaker 1: a lot of that communication too, was coming from Julian

418
00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:25,320
Speaker 1: Blackman as well. He is continuing to elevate. We've seen

419
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:27,840
Speaker 1: what his abilities are and we've talked, you know, at

420
00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:30,800
Speaker 1: nauseum about how he out here doing this. Yeah, exactly.

421
00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:34,480
Speaker 1: But now he's also really embracing the fact that he

422
00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:37,600
Speaker 1: is kind of a veteran of this roster, a veteran

423
00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:39,399
Speaker 1: of this group, despite the fact it's a new system

424
00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:43,000
Speaker 1: for him. He's a phenomenal communicator and guys really respond

425
00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:45,320
Speaker 1: well to him. So it's been cool to see him

426
00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:48,200
Speaker 1: thriving being put in kind of that position. All right, Lara,

427
00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:52,919
Speaker 1: we got Brandon Fason, we got Nick cross Casey, You're

428
00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 1: who do you got, Lara? Oh? I mean, I go

429
00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:59,520
Speaker 1: a lot you. It's like so hard to like dull

430
00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:02,240
Speaker 1: things out. I mean, over the weekend, I thought Isaiah

431
00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:05,880
Speaker 1: Rodgers was playing at such an exceptional level. This week,

432
00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:09,879
Speaker 1: Nahem Hines has just burst. I mean, you have seen

433
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:14,320
Speaker 1: that elusiveness, You've seen the speed, You've seen a little

434
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:18,120
Speaker 1: of the potential in different situations with how they're going

435
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:21,760
Speaker 1: to utilize him differently than we've seen in seasons past.

436
00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:24,960
Speaker 1: We've seen the dynamic of he and Jonathan Taylor incomblent

437
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:26,440
Speaker 1: to each other on the field at the same time.

438
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:30,680
Speaker 1: So in terms of the possibilities, I'm so excited for

439
00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:34,320
Speaker 1: Nahem in this system and working with Matt because you

440
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:37,480
Speaker 1: can see the dynamic that those guys have started to form.

441
00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:39,480
Speaker 1: I know he's not on this podcast, but did you

442
00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:42,359
Speaker 1: guys see the Indie Star article today from Joel that

443
00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:44,880
Speaker 1: those stats and it were fascinating. Okay, so he's talking. Yeah,

444
00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:47,640
Speaker 1: I didn't see the article, but yeah, yeah, yeah, go ahead,

445
00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:50,119
Speaker 1: So running backs, running backs, I beg your pardon, yes,

446
00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:52,680
Speaker 1: So when Jonathan Taylor, nam Hines last year we're on

447
00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:54,920
Speaker 1: the field together at the same time. I think it

448
00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:58,520
Speaker 1: was like seventy plus plays and the Colts ran thirty

449
00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:03,479
Speaker 1: seven past play days thirty eight rushing plays, so incredibly balanced.

450
00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:05,280
Speaker 1: You know, you're not tipping your hand to the defense

451
00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:07,200
Speaker 1: in terms of you know whether or not you're gonna

452
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:10,080
Speaker 1: run or pass. But they ran at thirty eight times

453
00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:14,160
Speaker 1: out of that look, and they Colts average ten point

454
00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:18,119
Speaker 1: five yards per carry when they went two back sets,

455
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:21,000
Speaker 1: And I saw and I said, because I was racking

456
00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:23,640
Speaker 1: my brain on just how effective that was and when

457
00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:26,880
Speaker 1: they used that, and I said, I think they used

458
00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:29,120
Speaker 1: that two back set Hines and Taylor on the field

459
00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:32,560
Speaker 1: that Thursday night game against the Jets, and Taylor went

460
00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:35,719
Speaker 1: ripped off that seventy plus run in that game too,

461
00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:37,320
Speaker 1: And so I went up to him, I said, if

462
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:39,119
Speaker 1: you take out that run, what's it gonna be like?

463
00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:40,919
Speaker 1: You know, the numbers can say what you want them

464
00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:43,399
Speaker 1: to say, but if you take out that run, did

465
00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:45,199
Speaker 1: you do the math there? He said, yes, I did,

466
00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 1: because I thought I thought the same thing. And if

467
00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:50,000
Speaker 1: you take out that seventy plus yard run, it's still

468
00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:53,600
Speaker 1: over eight yards per car. It's insane and so I

469
00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:55,440
Speaker 1: love it, you know, I mean, we a lot of

470
00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:57,520
Speaker 1: fans have been saying, get these guys on the field

471
00:22:57,520 --> 00:22:59,600
Speaker 1: at the same time. You know, it just boils down

472
00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:01,160
Speaker 1: to who do you want on the field. You want

473
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:04,040
Speaker 1: your best playmakers on the field as often as possible,

474
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:07,119
Speaker 1: and that's Pittman, Taylor, and Hines in no particular order.

475
00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:09,840
Speaker 1: There's one thing talking about just just the fans really quickly,

476
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:14,199
Speaker 1: is Nahem Hines is like tossing backflips on command now,

477
00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:16,040
Speaker 1: like at the end of practice and be like, na

478
00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:18,399
Speaker 1: do a backflip about them, and he'll just rip it off,

479
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:22,640
Speaker 1: saying it was so funny. Now that's become like such

480
00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:25,920
Speaker 1: a thing though, Like I was like watching it today unfolded,

481
00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:28,720
Speaker 1: and Nahim just cannot help himself. It's great. One of

482
00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:31,000
Speaker 1: those things you're talking about, Matt, some of those sets

483
00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:33,119
Speaker 1: we've seen. If you think about the playmakers, when you

484
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:35,840
Speaker 1: have Jonathan Nihim on the field, you've got Pittman and

485
00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:38,040
Speaker 1: a lot of times he's also seen Paris Campbell and

486
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:41,480
Speaker 1: Aleck Pierce. I mean, the amount of you know, big

487
00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:44,800
Speaker 1: time playmaking production you have, I mean that is definitely

488
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:47,520
Speaker 1: something good luck because a lot of that then is

489
00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:50,080
Speaker 1: going to dictate you're gonna be in nickel, You're gonna

490
00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:52,280
Speaker 1: be in sub right, just opposing defense, so you may

491
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:54,960
Speaker 1: you leverage the defense so differently. Oh, you got to

492
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:56,960
Speaker 1: declare as a defense even when you have two wide

493
00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,080
Speaker 1: receivers out there, the defense has to declare are we

494
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:01,800
Speaker 1: going to be in base with three linebackers most likely?

495
00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:04,160
Speaker 1: Or are we going to be in a sub package

496
00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:06,400
Speaker 1: with more than you know, five or more defensive backs.

497
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:08,280
Speaker 1: And then if you're then you motion a linebacker or

498
00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:10,760
Speaker 1: out on a jet. You're you're in a sub package.

499
00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:12,920
Speaker 1: You can give the ball to Jonathan Taylor. You're in

500
00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:15,800
Speaker 1: you're a nickel. You got Nihim Hines as a matchup

501
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:19,480
Speaker 1: advantage against uh, you know, maybe a safety or someone,

502
00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:21,480
Speaker 1: and you're gonna be in pretty good shape. There are

503
00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:25,639
Speaker 1: one more thing before we get to just got up

504
00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:27,040
Speaker 1: to go get a chair to put her feet up on.

505
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:29,280
Speaker 1: I do not blame Lara. I am not making fun

506
00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:31,480
Speaker 1: of Lara for this because we've been on our feet

507
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:35,840
Speaker 1: all day all day. My back is sore, Like I

508
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:38,000
Speaker 1: sit down now and I'm just like, you know, it's

509
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:40,359
Speaker 1: like those progressive commercials like you know, don't become your parents.

510
00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:42,000
Speaker 1: Like when I sit down after camp now, I'm like,

511
00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:44,680
Speaker 1: you don't have to collap that one that made the

512
00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:49,560
Speaker 1: movies here, I love that one. We don't need a

513
00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:53,320
Speaker 1: cute wrangler. We all know where the bathrooms. We don't

514
00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:57,840
Speaker 1: need to talk about leaving. We all see she has

515
00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,720
Speaker 1: blue hair. She has blue hair. Those are great. One

516
00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:02,639
Speaker 1: more thing before I get to the interview, mate, you

517
00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:05,080
Speaker 1: did with d of on network Stacey Dale's. We've heard

518
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:07,679
Speaker 1: a lot about how Matt Ryan's been running practices up

519
00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:11,640
Speaker 1: tempo and how it's been get to the line, get

520
00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:15,000
Speaker 1: your plays in, and how it practices for the first

521
00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:18,520
Speaker 1: couple of days ended about ten minutes early. What does

522
00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:21,720
Speaker 1: this mean? What kind of impact can this have? And

523
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:25,359
Speaker 1: I think we heard from some players that like, you know,

524
00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:28,280
Speaker 1: you can kind of dictate what a defense does based

525
00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:32,480
Speaker 1: on tempo. But for the colts right now during camp

526
00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:35,960
Speaker 1: getting this work in at this kind of a clip, Mate,

527
00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:37,920
Speaker 1: I'll start with you, like, what does this do for

528
00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:40,119
Speaker 1: the team, for the vibe and for the work the

529
00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:42,160
Speaker 1: cults are getting in. I just think it's a mentality,

530
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:44,119
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's we only we can only be

531
00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:46,920
Speaker 1: out here for X amount of time per the CBA.

532
00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:51,320
Speaker 1: Let's get as much done and accomplished as possible. Let's

533
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:54,880
Speaker 1: be swift, let's be crisp, let's be efficient. We all

534
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:58,520
Speaker 1: know this playbook because we had the entire offseason workout program.

535
00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:01,680
Speaker 1: Let's just execute at high clip. Let's get into the huddle,

536
00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:04,360
Speaker 1: let's get the next play, and let's go. And that's

537
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:05,800
Speaker 1: not to say the Cults are going to be in

538
00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:09,600
Speaker 1: this breakneck two minute offense the entire game, but it

539
00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:12,440
Speaker 1: does prove to them if they continue to do it

540
00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:15,199
Speaker 1: at a high level here at Grand Park, if they

541
00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:17,399
Speaker 1: get into the game and they need us, you know,

542
00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:19,960
Speaker 1: a little bit of a spark and things get into

543
00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:22,680
Speaker 1: a little bit of a low offensively, you know, halfway

544
00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:24,960
Speaker 1: through the second quarter, maybe middle of the third quarter,

545
00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:27,399
Speaker 1: let's go up tempo a little bit. Because it's not

546
00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:29,560
Speaker 1: foreign to everybody, it's not going to catch us off

547
00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 1: guard a little bit. So I think it translates to

548
00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:34,640
Speaker 1: the game since you've done it at a high level

549
00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:37,800
Speaker 1: in camp, in practice, and then to your point, JJ,

550
00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:40,840
Speaker 1: it also makes it really hard on a defense because

551
00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:44,200
Speaker 1: if you're going quick, it's hard to substitute, it's hard

552
00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:47,480
Speaker 1: to get complicated, it's hard to make checks, it's hard

553
00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:49,760
Speaker 1: to audible. Sometimes you just have to line up and

554
00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:51,760
Speaker 1: play football because you don't have a lot of time.

555
00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:54,520
Speaker 1: I can speak to that as a defensive guy in

556
00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:57,840
Speaker 1: college when you played an up tempo spread, you know,

557
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:00,840
Speaker 1: no huddle team, sometimes you just had to go play

558
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:03,240
Speaker 1: Cover two or Cover four because that's all the time

559
00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:05,240
Speaker 1: you had to get in. In terms of relaying that

560
00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:07,960
Speaker 1: from the sideline from your defensive coordinator, I think we

561
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:09,440
Speaker 1: heard it. I think it was Matt Pryor that was

562
00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:11,560
Speaker 1: talking about it last week and he was like, yeah, crap,

563
00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:15,080
Speaker 1: we gotta go oh crap, and that's all right, Yeah,

564
00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:17,240
Speaker 1: we'll censor it here. But that's one of the things

565
00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:19,960
Speaker 1: that I took from it is you got everybody on board.

566
00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:22,840
Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's the key. It's everybody at You're

567
00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:24,800
Speaker 1: not at your own pace, Hey, this is this is

568
00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:26,840
Speaker 1: the pace we're all going at. And I think you know,

569
00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:29,000
Speaker 1: Matt hit it right on the head. When you do that,

570
00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:32,960
Speaker 1: it forces the defense to change up their whole game plan.

571
00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:34,639
Speaker 1: And that's that's what you're trying to do. I mean,

572
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:36,359
Speaker 1: every offense is trying to do that, every defense is

573
00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:38,320
Speaker 1: trying to do that. And when you can dictate that

574
00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:41,080
Speaker 1: it just gives you such a better leg up. You

575
00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:44,000
Speaker 1: know what I love about this though, too, is it

576
00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:46,840
Speaker 1: gives me this sense of urgency. This is a team

577
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:49,360
Speaker 1: that needs a sense of urgency and has had one

578
00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:52,000
Speaker 1: since the way the season ended in twenty twenty one

579
00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:54,280
Speaker 1: with the loss to the Jaguars. Matt Ryan's a new

580
00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:57,280
Speaker 1: guy here, and Matt Ryan's bringing that same sense of urgency,

581
00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:00,280
Speaker 1: maybe even elevating it. I love how those two things

582
00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:03,600
Speaker 1: mashed together well. I talked with Stefan Gilmour on I

583
00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:06,080
Speaker 1: believe it was Friday. Yes, it don't matter. I know

584
00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:09,040
Speaker 1: days don't matter. Again, I can't keep track of a calendar. Yes,

585
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:12,959
Speaker 1: but I asked Stefan about Matt's quick tempo. And obviously

586
00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:17,880
Speaker 1: Stefan Gilmour know who has gone up against some great quarterbacks,

587
00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:19,840
Speaker 1: right it's Tom Brady, just just a couple of them.

588
00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:22,679
Speaker 1: And he says it's very challenging because it really tests

589
00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:25,639
Speaker 1: your conditioning tests how fit you are. You know, how

590
00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:27,840
Speaker 1: in shape you are. And then he also said, as

591
00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:31,600
Speaker 1: a defense, you have to communicate. We're communicate more effectively,

592
00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:35,280
Speaker 1: and he said the incentive is let's play three plays

593
00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:37,560
Speaker 1: fast and get off the field. He said, you really

594
00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:39,880
Speaker 1: have to focus because when it's going that quick, one

595
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:43,160
Speaker 1: mistake by us and they score, or one adjustment by

596
00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:45,800
Speaker 1: us and can prevent a score, that's going to make

597
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:47,920
Speaker 1: the difference. So you really have to be locked in.

598
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:50,000
Speaker 1: So I think it tests your conditioning and also just

599
00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:52,080
Speaker 1: the focus and how locked in you are. And so

600
00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:53,840
Speaker 1: much of what you're doing right now is getting into

601
00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:57,080
Speaker 1: football shape. And that's Matt Ryan's helping you get into

602
00:28:57,080 --> 00:28:58,920
Speaker 1: football shape by going that fast. Can I tell you

603
00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:01,880
Speaker 1: guys one thing that I learned. There's a really fun

604
00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:04,760
Speaker 1: go pro. It's called Uno Cam from Paris Campbell. He

605
00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:08,240
Speaker 1: wore the Chess go pro the other day for for practice.

606
00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:10,960
Speaker 1: Did you know on the Apple Watch your activity tracker,

607
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:13,840
Speaker 1: there's American football, So when you guys are out here

608
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:17,040
Speaker 1: at practice, you can program it to American football when

609
00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:19,840
Speaker 1: you're tracking your activity. Ashton Dowan was pulling up his

610
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:24,320
Speaker 1: Apple watching what does that mean? Yeah? Well, and as

611
00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:27,680
Speaker 1: opposed to like as opposed to soccer, like American football,

612
00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:30,120
Speaker 1: you know, like, so, oh god, do you have to

613
00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:31,920
Speaker 1: explain the Apple Watch? Yeah? I don't have one, but

614
00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:35,400
Speaker 1: but there's a setting for American football. Yes, when you

615
00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:37,320
Speaker 1: go to your Apple Watch. Yeah, you when you track

616
00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:39,520
Speaker 1: your activity, so like if you go to the Little Guy,

617
00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:42,920
Speaker 1: you can track like outdoor walk, indoor cycle, functional strength training.

618
00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:44,640
Speaker 1: You go, how does it? How does it know you're

619
00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:47,800
Speaker 1: doing football activity? Well, because you're selecting that is the

620
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:50,440
Speaker 1: activity that you're doing. You select it and you tell

621
00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:53,720
Speaker 1: it you're doing. So who knew American football an option

622
00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:57,240
Speaker 1: on the watching I don't know. I was likely I'm

623
00:29:57,240 --> 00:29:58,800
Speaker 1: going to start doing this one out here at practice

624
00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:04,800
Speaker 1: because clearly I'm layer's gonna do razorbacks to I am yes,

625
00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:11,760
Speaker 1: wait wait till Ban Campbell gets here. Yeah, yeah, social media, yes,

626
00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:14,600
Speaker 1: but America, that's what I learned in the in the

627
00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:19,280
Speaker 1: Paris Ou no GoPro camp American football and Apple Watch. Well,

628
00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:22,560
Speaker 1: speaking of American football, that's what we're talking about. That's

629
00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 1: a bad transition. We're gonna go to the covers America

630
00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:31,240
Speaker 1: covers American football, but she's Canadian. Oh boy, here we go,

631
00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:34,600
Speaker 1: there we go. I totally pulled out of that tailspin.

632
00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:37,520
Speaker 1: Here's the interview that Matt Taylor did with NFL Network.

633
00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:39,840
Speaker 1: Stacy Dale's our friend. Take a listen to this. We're

634
00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:42,840
Speaker 1: here at colts Camp Grand Park after day two. We're

635
00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:46,440
Speaker 1: taping this on Thursday after Colts Camp. It's the first

636
00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:49,520
Speaker 1: practice outside for the Indianapolis Colts. I'm Matt Taylor and

637
00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:53,400
Speaker 1: Stacy Dales is with US reporter from the NFL Network. Stacy,

638
00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:56,080
Speaker 1: Welcome back to Graham Park. Oh. I love being here, Matt,

639
00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:58,800
Speaker 1: thanks for having me. I just I you know, I'm

640
00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:00,600
Speaker 1: a fan of the Colts to be in with. But

641
00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:04,040
Speaker 1: what's really impressive this year is after two years with

642
00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:07,240
Speaker 1: few fans, to see the wave of fans come in

643
00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:10,880
Speaker 1: and know that football is really back. And then this team, right,

644
00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:14,640
Speaker 1: Matt Ryan and company and Jonathan Taylor and his encore

645
00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:16,560
Speaker 1: from last year. It's just going to be fun. Where

646
00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:18,560
Speaker 1: does Where does Graham Park? Where do the Colts rank

647
00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:21,240
Speaker 1: on your training camp tour? Your stops that you have

648
00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:23,000
Speaker 1: to make? This is one of my top I mean

649
00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:25,200
Speaker 1: I do a lot of NFC North as you know. Yeah,

650
00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:27,560
Speaker 1: so I'll be at all the North teams. I'll be

651
00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:31,760
Speaker 1: in Green Bay, I'll be in Minnesota, Chicago and Detroit.

652
00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:34,480
Speaker 1: I gotta be honest. The Packers have a pretty cool

653
00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:37,320
Speaker 1: setup because they you know, they got the bike, you know,

654
00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:40,080
Speaker 1: the tradition bike drive and the kids going over with

655
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:42,880
Speaker 1: the bikes and the players, and then they practice across

656
00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:46,600
Speaker 1: the field across the road from lambeau Field. But this

657
00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:49,120
Speaker 1: is what I like about this. You're in the middle

658
00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:52,720
Speaker 1: of the country. It's quiet, but then you have the

659
00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:55,440
Speaker 1: grind of training camp and it's just it couldn't be

660
00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:57,960
Speaker 1: a better setup. It's super spread out. I think they

661
00:31:58,040 --> 00:31:59,640
Speaker 1: do a great job here at Grand Park, and I

662
00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:01,720
Speaker 1: think the Colds do a good job laying it out. Yeah,

663
00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:05,400
Speaker 1: we talked, you know, just briefly before practice. Your summer

664
00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:07,200
Speaker 1: just goes buy in a blank of an eye, and

665
00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:09,960
Speaker 1: you're so busy to begin with, I mean, you go

666
00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:12,400
Speaker 1: just crazy. I mean I think we all do. But

667
00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:15,080
Speaker 1: you especially working for the league and the network and

668
00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:18,680
Speaker 1: you're covering all thirty two teams simultaneously. You know, you

669
00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:20,960
Speaker 1: got the grind of the season, and then boom, here's

670
00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:23,600
Speaker 1: the super Bowl. Two weeks later, it's the combine and

671
00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:26,280
Speaker 1: free agency, which is just as popular as the games.

672
00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:29,880
Speaker 1: What's life like when do you decompress a little bit?

673
00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:32,280
Speaker 1: A great question, And we're all in the grind, because

674
00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:34,920
Speaker 1: anytime you're in the NFL it's three sixty five. People think,

675
00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:37,640
Speaker 1: oh you got all this time off, but really, you know,

676
00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:39,760
Speaker 1: we do have a little bit of a programming break

677
00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:42,680
Speaker 1: in terms of our NFL Now programming, which is very

678
00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:47,640
Speaker 1: heavy editorially based for reporters, and so we take that

679
00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:53,640
Speaker 1: time kind of like June into July. But again, it's

680
00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:56,320
Speaker 1: three sixty five. You said it. We go from you know,

681
00:32:56,440 --> 00:33:00,160
Speaker 1: the regular season to playoffs to the super Bow. Well,

682
00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:02,320
Speaker 1: now we've lost a week. So the combine is I

683
00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:04,480
Speaker 1: don't know how you felt, Matt, but it was like, yeah,

684
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:06,560
Speaker 1: I turned around and I was an indie. Yeah for

685
00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:08,640
Speaker 1: the combine. Rams won the super Bowl. Then it's like,

686
00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:10,640
Speaker 1: all right, who we drafting? Yeah, yeah, you know, and

687
00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:13,400
Speaker 1: then it's the draft, and so you go combine, you

688
00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:15,560
Speaker 1: go draft, and now you're into right into OTAs with

689
00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:18,320
Speaker 1: the new teams and the rookies. And now here we

690
00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:21,240
Speaker 1: are at training camp preseason, which is a huge time

691
00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:23,200
Speaker 1: for the NFL network, and we are wall to wall

692
00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:25,960
Speaker 1: coverage for training camp as well as preseason, and we

693
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:28,800
Speaker 1: get a lot of ratings in these periods of time. So, right,

694
00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:30,880
Speaker 1: you got a lot of people out in the field

695
00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:34,840
Speaker 1: and you're back at it. So when Week one actually comes,

696
00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:37,440
Speaker 1: you almost feel like an NFL player, not to diminish

697
00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:41,240
Speaker 1: the physical nature of it. But by week one you

698
00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:43,840
Speaker 1: better be like in game form, Yes, ready to go,

699
00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:46,960
Speaker 1: but there's a live bullets or you know. This is

700
00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:49,640
Speaker 1: I always say the month of August is its own season.

701
00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:52,720
Speaker 1: It's its own entity because, like you said, you you

702
00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:55,040
Speaker 1: get through those preseason games and then you form the

703
00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:57,640
Speaker 1: team and you get through training camp. Then it's weird

704
00:33:57,720 --> 00:34:00,400
Speaker 1: to go out to practice that that first week of

705
00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:02,880
Speaker 1: the regular season and you're like, where did everybody go?

706
00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:05,120
Speaker 1: You go from ninety guys to fifty three guys and

707
00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:07,560
Speaker 1: you feel like there should just be more bodies out

708
00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:10,719
Speaker 1: there all right after practice today for the Colts, he

709
00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:13,279
Speaker 1: spoke with Matt Ryan. How do you think he is

710
00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:17,840
Speaker 1: acclimating to the Colts and embracing this opportunity seamlessly? And

711
00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:20,160
Speaker 1: I asked him that, I said, you know, that's what

712
00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:23,160
Speaker 1: everybody tells me. Why has this been the right fit

713
00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:26,640
Speaker 1: for you? He loves the team built around him. This

714
00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:28,920
Speaker 1: is a team built to win. So he talked about

715
00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:31,680
Speaker 1: how well built it is and you can credit Chris

716
00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:35,359
Speaker 1: Ballard and company for that. He brings us so much

717
00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:37,880
Speaker 1: experience and he's been an MVP, He's been to a

718
00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:40,359
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. He's of what, four time Pro bowler, He's

719
00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:42,480
Speaker 1: been an All Pro, He's done everything, So as he

720
00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:46,240
Speaker 1: enters year fifteen, it's huge. And then it's the culture,

721
00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:48,719
Speaker 1: right this, you know the culture here. This is a

722
00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:52,400
Speaker 1: bunch of hard working men that and women on the

723
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:56,960
Speaker 1: sidelines that do it the right way. Right, it's a

724
00:34:57,040 --> 00:34:59,600
Speaker 1: there's a humility about the Colts that I've always appreciated

725
00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:02,880
Speaker 1: cover the National Football League from a national perspective, and

726
00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:08,839
Speaker 1: every year I'm amazed by the quality of people, the intelligence,

727
00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:12,920
Speaker 1: the determination, and just how hard these guys work. I

728
00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:15,000
Speaker 1: just love the nucleus of the team, and I think

729
00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:17,399
Speaker 1: Matt Ryan that's probably a big reason why he's been

730
00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:20,360
Speaker 1: in so well. What do you think his season looks like?

731
00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:23,400
Speaker 1: I mean, not very often in Atlanta did he have,

732
00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:26,640
Speaker 1: you know, a top fifteen defense or a top fifteen

733
00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:29,560
Speaker 1: running game. Hopefully those two things are in place this

734
00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:32,320
Speaker 1: year with the Colts. So what do you think a

735
00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:35,440
Speaker 1: normal game, if you will, looks like for Matt Ryan

736
00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:37,200
Speaker 1: in order for the Colts to have success and win

737
00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:40,200
Speaker 1: a lot of games. It's a great question. He hasn't

738
00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:44,040
Speaker 1: had a winning season in four seasons in Atlanta. To me,

739
00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:46,680
Speaker 1: this is a complete boost in the arm for him

740
00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:51,960
Speaker 1: of goodness and rejuvenation and energy. And so how does

741
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:54,160
Speaker 1: he do it? Starts the offensive line. You know, by

742
00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:57,200
Speaker 1: at this point it's too early to really tell how

743
00:35:57,400 --> 00:36:02,120
Speaker 1: far Bernard Ryman's coming along. You know, they're their their

744
00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:04,959
Speaker 1: top line draft d be lieve he went in the third,

745
00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:07,800
Speaker 1: third round and who I got to know what the

746
00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:11,520
Speaker 1: combine was utterly impressed by. He's just tremendous, is so smart.

747
00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:14,920
Speaker 1: He will be a technician. He hasn't played for long,

748
00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:17,000
Speaker 1: so how quickly can he develop it? Right now? Matt

749
00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:20,080
Speaker 1: Pryor seems to be that left side fixture. I mean,

750
00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:22,960
Speaker 1: you've got you've got the built in you know, Quentin Nelson,

751
00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:25,960
Speaker 1: Ryan Kelly, Danny Pinter of the middle of that line,

752
00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:28,560
Speaker 1: and then Braden on the other side. So to me

753
00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:30,920
Speaker 1: figuring out the left tackle spot, these tight ends have

754
00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:33,440
Speaker 1: to come along, right. We forget about Jack Doyle and

755
00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:36,480
Speaker 1: how good he has been. He's he's an additional kind

756
00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:38,920
Speaker 1: of like a Kyle Rudolph. He's an additional offensive linement.

757
00:36:39,400 --> 00:36:42,400
Speaker 1: When the Vikings lost Rudy, they lost an alignment in

758
00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:45,319
Speaker 1: many respects. Despite his prowess catching the ball, I mean,

759
00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:47,840
Speaker 1: they remind me a lot of each other. So you

760
00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:51,480
Speaker 1: know with mo Ali Cox and obviously Gilanni Woods and

761
00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:55,560
Speaker 1: Andrew Ogletree, who I've heard has the complete package, like

762
00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:57,719
Speaker 1: he goes in the sixth round and the Colts are

763
00:36:57,840 --> 00:37:01,160
Speaker 1: raving about his offseason. So these tight ends have to

764
00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:04,279
Speaker 1: be great. We know Matt Ryan loves tight ends, so

765
00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:07,000
Speaker 1: to me, it starts there. You know what you're getting

766
00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:11,480
Speaker 1: from Jonathan Taylor, Right, he's a three down beast. Naim's

767
00:37:11,480 --> 00:37:13,160
Speaker 1: going to be used more in the past game. That

768
00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:16,200
Speaker 1: has to happen, right, he has to be a Tyreek

769
00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:18,480
Speaker 1: Hill type of influence in this offense to me, not

770
00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:21,560
Speaker 1: that Tyreeks are running back, but to me, Naim is

771
00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:24,879
Speaker 1: so versatile. And then let's look at these receivers, right,

772
00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:28,200
Speaker 1: they got to stay healthy. Paris Campbell has to stay healthy.

773
00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:30,800
Speaker 1: We gotta get him healthy, right, missed eleven games a

774
00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:34,440
Speaker 1: season ago. I believe you have Michael Pittman, who's your

775
00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:37,239
Speaker 1: ex year Z, your slot, whatever you want. Let's see

776
00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:40,520
Speaker 1: how now Alec Pierce develops their second round receiver. I

777
00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:42,799
Speaker 1: love his size seeing him in person. I saw him

778
00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:45,839
Speaker 1: at the combine, saw him in at the combine. Matt

779
00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:48,720
Speaker 1: but seeing him in person catching footballs from the quarterback

780
00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:51,600
Speaker 1: that will be throwing it to him is beautiful. I

781
00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:55,200
Speaker 1: love football. I love watching, you know, a six four

782
00:37:55,280 --> 00:38:00,440
Speaker 1: or whatever, lean, fast receiver with really reliable hands go

783
00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:02,800
Speaker 1: up and catch it. So I'm excited about this receiving

784
00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:04,960
Speaker 1: corps and I think it's kind of good to be

785
00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:07,160
Speaker 1: a little bit underrated, if you will. And they didn't

786
00:38:07,160 --> 00:38:09,919
Speaker 1: bring in a huge name guy. They might still bring

787
00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:12,719
Speaker 1: in a veteran receiver, but I think they're kind of

788
00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:14,800
Speaker 1: happy with where they're at. I mean, it's been a

789
00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:17,560
Speaker 1: hot button issue on sports talk radio here locally and

790
00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:20,680
Speaker 1: then nationally. People look at the Colts wide receiver corps

791
00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:23,480
Speaker 1: and they say, oh, man, you know, there's Michael Pittman, junior,

792
00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:26,000
Speaker 1: one thousand yard guy. He's going to blossom into more.

793
00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:27,880
Speaker 1: But you know, if you just look at at it,

794
00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:30,720
Speaker 1: statistically from last year, nobody had more than three hundred

795
00:38:30,719 --> 00:38:33,360
Speaker 1: and eighty five receiving yards. I think it's nature of

796
00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:36,279
Speaker 1: the way the Colts played and Jonathan Taylor emerged, And

797
00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:39,200
Speaker 1: how do you view the Colts wide receivers. Is there

798
00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:42,000
Speaker 1: enough juice? Is there enough pop there in order for

799
00:38:42,080 --> 00:38:44,399
Speaker 1: them to compliment Matt Ryan. I think Matt Ryan will

800
00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:46,920
Speaker 1: be able to compliment those guys. That's the thing, right,

801
00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:49,120
Speaker 1: that's the thing. Matt. So when you have a future

802
00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:51,960
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame quarterback, which Matt Ryan is, do you

803
00:38:52,040 --> 00:38:54,920
Speaker 1: think so? I do? I do too, I do said.

804
00:38:55,120 --> 00:38:58,279
Speaker 1: His resume is, uh, you know, I've got I've gotten

805
00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:00,960
Speaker 1: numbers here in front of me. Another two years, you

806
00:39:01,040 --> 00:39:03,840
Speaker 1: get these packets. You know, he ranks top ten in

807
00:39:03,960 --> 00:39:06,920
Speaker 1: NFL history in both pass yards and past touchdowns right now,

808
00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:09,279
Speaker 1: are you kidding me? He's going to be top five

809
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:11,360
Speaker 1: when he's done. Yeah, he's thirty seven. I think he

810
00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:14,160
Speaker 1: has at least three more really good years if he

811
00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:16,640
Speaker 1: stays healthy. But these quarterbacks, the way they take care

812
00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:18,880
Speaker 1: of their bodies. Now, you mean you got Tom Brady

813
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:21,600
Speaker 1: on vegan diet and I've got TB twelve powder in

814
00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:26,040
Speaker 1: my kitchen by the way, because I'm like, I'm a believer.

815
00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:28,319
Speaker 1: I mean, Aaron Rodgers, We're going to see him soon

816
00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:31,359
Speaker 1: and he's he looks better than he did five years ago?

817
00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:34,840
Speaker 1: Are you kidding me? So he's got one hundred and

818
00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:39,480
Speaker 1: twenty career wins. Matt Ryan does. And by the way,

819
00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:43,000
Speaker 1: like all that time he spent fourteen seasons in Atlanta.

820
00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:45,279
Speaker 1: He didn't always have great teams around him, so now

821
00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:47,080
Speaker 1: he's got a team. So yes, I do think he

822
00:39:47,200 --> 00:39:49,000
Speaker 1: is a future Hall of Famer. And I think those

823
00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:51,880
Speaker 1: types of quarterbacks be at Drew Brees or you know,

824
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:55,680
Speaker 1: I think Russell Wilson is obviously Tom and you know,

825
00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:58,880
Speaker 1: I could go down the list Aaron Rodgers. Who am

826
00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:03,560
Speaker 1: I missing? My goodness? But they make young players better

827
00:40:03,600 --> 00:40:05,880
Speaker 1: because they're so smart. And I think he's going to

828
00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:09,080
Speaker 1: take this like I've heard good things about the undrafted

829
00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:15,080
Speaker 1: Ashton dueling in twenty nineteen yards after catch, type of guy, power,

830
00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:17,360
Speaker 1: type of guy. You add that to Pittman and you

831
00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:20,560
Speaker 1: get Nahem involved in the pass game. Now you open

832
00:40:20,680 --> 00:40:23,080
Speaker 1: something up maybe for Jonathan Taylor. What if one of

833
00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:25,920
Speaker 1: these tight ends emerges as a great play catcher. What

834
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:30,360
Speaker 1: if it's Jilannie Woods. Right, So I'm I'm confident because

835
00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:33,160
Speaker 1: I think Matt Ryan will make these guys better. Yeah,

836
00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:35,920
Speaker 1: and because he's so smart and he's so experienced. Absolutely,

837
00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:38,680
Speaker 1: you know, the ball placement, the decision making, I mean

838
00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:40,800
Speaker 1: it's on display and we're only a couple of practices

839
00:40:40,840 --> 00:40:44,120
Speaker 1: in at Stacy Dale is from the NFL Network, Stacy,

840
00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:46,279
Speaker 1: where do you have the cults in terms of the

841
00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:49,160
Speaker 1: hierarchy in the AFC South? Is this the year they

842
00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:52,479
Speaker 1: finally do it? As Tennessee dropped off because of A J. Brown.

843
00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:55,160
Speaker 1: How do you view that they haven't won the division

844
00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:58,720
Speaker 1: since twenty fourteen? I think because they are so hungry.

845
00:40:59,480 --> 00:41:01,520
Speaker 1: We don't know it's going to happen with Houston, right,

846
00:41:01,640 --> 00:41:04,840
Speaker 1: it was their quarterback situation going to be okay. I

847
00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:09,520
Speaker 1: don't know. Jacksonville Trevor Lawrence could have an interesting second

848
00:41:09,560 --> 00:41:13,680
Speaker 1: campaign with Doug Peterson right, and they're running backs and

849
00:41:14,520 --> 00:41:17,160
Speaker 1: some of the pieces they've added to their perimeter. But

850
00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:20,160
Speaker 1: I think because of Matt Ryan and his addition, I

851
00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:22,239
Speaker 1: think I think this defense is a good defense, right.

852
00:41:22,320 --> 00:41:25,080
Speaker 1: I love the addition of Stefan Gilmore. I think when

853
00:41:25,120 --> 00:41:28,480
Speaker 1: you add Yunique and Goaqway like, let hope he stays healthy,

854
00:41:29,200 --> 00:41:32,400
Speaker 1: he changes the complexion of that defensive front. And then,

855
00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:36,120
Speaker 1: of course, when you think of Fason Brandon Fayson, who

856
00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:38,760
Speaker 1: spent not only time with the Raiders with Gus Bradley

857
00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:42,279
Speaker 1: the de coordinator, but the Chargers, there's a linebacker that

858
00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:45,279
Speaker 1: you can build in there that can teach the rest

859
00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:49,719
Speaker 1: of that sort of linebacker second wave and in the secondary,

860
00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:52,600
Speaker 1: here's the way he wants to do it. So I

861
00:41:52,719 --> 00:41:56,040
Speaker 1: think that continuity with Gus Bradley. I like the scheme.

862
00:41:56,120 --> 00:41:57,960
Speaker 1: I want to see Steph Gilmour get back to all

863
00:41:57,960 --> 00:41:59,879
Speaker 1: this press coverage he's so good at And I talk

864
00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:02,560
Speaker 1: to him after practice, so he's so excited because he's

865
00:42:02,600 --> 00:42:04,360
Speaker 1: going to get back into doing things. And I was like,

866
00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:07,319
Speaker 1: what do you like about this defense? Simple? He's like, Man,

867
00:42:07,400 --> 00:42:09,799
Speaker 1: it's just so simple. But the thing about it, Matt,

868
00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:12,920
Speaker 1: there's layers of it. You know, we remember Gus Bradley

869
00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:15,640
Speaker 1: and the Legion of Boom in Seattle when they want

870
00:42:15,640 --> 00:42:19,840
Speaker 1: a Super Bowl. Well, it is evolved, but with the

871
00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:22,680
Speaker 1: simple as I've talked to Colts personnel, with the simple

872
00:42:23,360 --> 00:42:26,000
Speaker 1: approach that they take, there's still layers to where they

873
00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:30,160
Speaker 1: they take away your leverage in coverage and as as

874
00:42:30,200 --> 00:42:34,560
Speaker 1: a receiving group downfield, they they take away that leverage

875
00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:37,680
Speaker 1: because what you can do upfront. Like if I go

876
00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:39,839
Speaker 1: back and I think about the Raiders last year where

877
00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:41,480
Speaker 1: Gus was the defensive corner, I think they had the

878
00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:43,920
Speaker 1: highest quarterback pressure rate per next gen. I think it

879
00:42:44,080 --> 00:42:46,480
Speaker 1: was in the NFL, but they didn't blitz a whole lot. Yeah,

880
00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:49,080
Speaker 1: so that tells me as a fan of the game,

881
00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:51,239
Speaker 1: they don't have to blitz, but they just rush with

882
00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:54,120
Speaker 1: those front guys. And here's the thing. It's crazy because

883
00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:56,600
Speaker 1: I don't know, I'm not a math major. Like, what's

884
00:42:56,680 --> 00:42:59,600
Speaker 1: what's the right word congruency? You know, the Cults were

885
00:42:59,640 --> 00:43:02,440
Speaker 1: a great team last year under Matt Eberfleuish. Really they

886
00:43:02,480 --> 00:43:04,960
Speaker 1: had ben since twenty eighteen in terms of the takeaways,

887
00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:08,480
Speaker 1: had thirty three turnovers cause last year, but they weren't

888
00:43:08,520 --> 00:43:10,759
Speaker 1: a very high team in terms of pressure, so it

889
00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:12,920
Speaker 1: didn't make any sense. So now if you get pressure,

890
00:43:13,320 --> 00:43:15,560
Speaker 1: those takeaways have a chance to maybe be even higher

891
00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:18,319
Speaker 1: than the thirty three. And they talked openly last year

892
00:43:18,320 --> 00:43:20,480
Speaker 1: about we want to get forty. Now I don't think

893
00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:22,839
Speaker 1: forty is all that crazy to talk about, not at all.

894
00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:26,280
Speaker 1: I mean they were right behind the Cowboys and Seaways

895
00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:29,799
Speaker 1: and it was fun to watch. And now you're thinking

896
00:43:29,920 --> 00:43:33,160
Speaker 1: like this, Nick Cross, I mean, yeah, I wish people

897
00:43:33,160 --> 00:43:36,520
Speaker 1: could see him up Close's did he not run the

898
00:43:36,640 --> 00:43:39,239
Speaker 1: fastest forty time for a safety at the combine? It

899
00:43:39,320 --> 00:43:42,000
Speaker 1: was like a four three four or something. Yeah, he's

900
00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:45,719
Speaker 1: built like I'm not gonna say quite the size leg

901
00:43:45,800 --> 00:43:48,239
Speaker 1: of AJ Dillon because AJ Dillon's legs are bigger than

902
00:43:48,680 --> 00:43:53,440
Speaker 1: Squon Barkley's big big, but he is so built you

903
00:43:53,480 --> 00:43:56,600
Speaker 1: could play him free or strong, put him in the nickel,

904
00:43:56,719 --> 00:43:59,640
Speaker 1: like the versatility you get with him. And I just

905
00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:01,719
Speaker 1: love the fact that he didn't go in round two

906
00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:03,399
Speaker 1: and the Colts move up to get them. They gave

907
00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:05,479
Speaker 1: up i think a fifth rounder and a third rounder

908
00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:08,960
Speaker 1: in the next year. I very unlike the Colts to

909
00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:10,880
Speaker 1: do that, but that's how much they love right And

910
00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:13,359
Speaker 1: they said he just stuck out like a sore thumb

911
00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:14,880
Speaker 1: on their draft board, like, hey, we got to go.

912
00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:16,839
Speaker 1: We have to fix this. Hey, don't be shocked if

913
00:44:16,880 --> 00:44:20,440
Speaker 1: he starts week one. Yeah, you know. And so I'm

914
00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:23,640
Speaker 1: I'm really pumped about the secondary. You know, Kenny Moore

915
00:44:23,719 --> 00:44:26,200
Speaker 1: is going to be Kenny Moore. They play Houston week

916
00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:29,640
Speaker 1: one at Houston, so let's go. I think it's gonna

917
00:44:29,640 --> 00:44:32,520
Speaker 1: be fun. I'm a you know, I every camp I

918
00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:34,560
Speaker 1: go to, I always have a positive spin and I

919
00:44:34,719 --> 00:44:37,880
Speaker 1: see everyone has a clean slate, but always I always

920
00:44:37,920 --> 00:44:40,120
Speaker 1: love the Colts and I always am a believer, just

921
00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:42,360
Speaker 1: because of the culture. Yeah, no question about that. And

922
00:44:42,520 --> 00:44:44,560
Speaker 1: you've you got to schedule right there in front of

923
00:44:44,560 --> 00:44:46,120
Speaker 1: you with the Colts. I mean, it's just so front

924
00:44:46,160 --> 00:44:48,880
Speaker 1: loaded with AFC South games. And you know that the

925
00:44:48,960 --> 00:44:51,120
Speaker 1: people that you've talked to and you're dialed in talking

926
00:44:51,160 --> 00:44:53,759
Speaker 1: to Chris and Frank and Matt Ryan and so many

927
00:44:53,840 --> 00:44:57,000
Speaker 1: other people throughout the chorus of time, have you gotten

928
00:44:57,040 --> 00:44:59,000
Speaker 1: the sense or the vibe that the cults are being

929
00:45:00,120 --> 00:45:02,520
Speaker 1: been and just honest about Hey, last year, the way

930
00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:05,000
Speaker 1: the season ended, you know, we're nine and eight. We

931
00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:08,320
Speaker 1: have this ninety eight percent probability of making the playoffs.

932
00:45:08,360 --> 00:45:10,200
Speaker 1: All we have to do is win one of our

933
00:45:10,239 --> 00:45:13,040
Speaker 1: final two games. We go to Jacksonville and it was

934
00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:15,200
Speaker 1: a clunker, you know there there was Yeah, there's just

935
00:45:15,280 --> 00:45:17,719
Speaker 1: no other way to describe it. And then all of

936
00:45:17,760 --> 00:45:20,040
Speaker 1: these AFC South games right out of the shoot for

937
00:45:20,040 --> 00:45:22,640
Speaker 1: the Colts. The sense of urgency. Have you gotten that

938
00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:27,680
Speaker 1: from you know the Colts brass? Yeah totally, because so

939
00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:30,520
Speaker 1: you always I used to be played basketball, and you

940
00:45:30,680 --> 00:45:32,959
Speaker 1: lose a game in a bad way and you don't

941
00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:34,960
Speaker 1: really forget about it. Yeah, all you can do is

942
00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:37,719
Speaker 1: learn from it, so you you're not you don't allow

943
00:45:37,800 --> 00:45:40,640
Speaker 1: yourself to forget about it. So when when players or

944
00:45:40,640 --> 00:45:42,880
Speaker 1: coaches always say that's in the past, we've moved forward,

945
00:45:43,880 --> 00:45:46,080
Speaker 1: you don't. You do move forward, but you don't forget

946
00:45:46,120 --> 00:45:48,360
Speaker 1: about it. I remember Frank Wright talking about because I

947
00:45:48,440 --> 00:45:52,760
Speaker 1: was at that Jacksonville game Matt and he talked about scars,

948
00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:55,640
Speaker 1: how it loves scars. Well, you've had a scar. I've

949
00:45:55,680 --> 00:45:57,640
Speaker 1: had a scar. What do you do if you've had

950
00:45:57,760 --> 00:46:00,200
Speaker 1: a surgery? You break up scar tissue. The only way

951
00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:02,840
Speaker 1: to do that is to move. And I really detect

952
00:46:02,960 --> 00:46:05,960
Speaker 1: this year they're on the move. And one of the

953
00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:08,360
Speaker 1: ways I've just picked up this week is by just

954
00:46:08,520 --> 00:46:11,400
Speaker 1: simply changing practice time and moving it from the morning

955
00:46:11,560 --> 00:46:13,640
Speaker 1: very early. What it used to be like eight ten

956
00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:15,600
Speaker 1: o'clock started at ten, so you move it to twelve,

957
00:46:15,680 --> 00:46:17,560
Speaker 1: and now you're right into pregame warm up for a

958
00:46:17,600 --> 00:46:20,880
Speaker 1: Sunday night, for a Sunday afternoon one o'clock kickoff. I agree,

959
00:46:21,160 --> 00:46:23,440
Speaker 1: So I prefer that. I think it's good for the players,

960
00:46:23,640 --> 00:46:25,880
Speaker 1: and maybe we'll see what they do in the preseason

961
00:46:26,040 --> 00:46:29,560
Speaker 1: in terms of rest and getting mad a few reps though,

962
00:46:29,800 --> 00:46:34,680
Speaker 1: don't put him in any compromising position, But I do

963
00:46:34,920 --> 00:46:38,239
Speaker 1: I do a sense a team that has learned. You know,

964
00:46:38,360 --> 00:46:40,640
Speaker 1: we've all lost something in our life at some point,

965
00:46:40,800 --> 00:46:42,759
Speaker 1: and all you can do is learn from it. But

966
00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:44,880
Speaker 1: you better not forget it because if you do, it

967
00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:46,759
Speaker 1: could happen again. And let me ask you something. You

968
00:46:46,840 --> 00:46:49,120
Speaker 1: just brought something up that's interesting. You're all over the place.

969
00:46:49,160 --> 00:46:51,719
Speaker 1: You're going to all these different camps seeing how all

970
00:46:51,760 --> 00:46:55,560
Speaker 1: these different teams operate. From your experience, is there a

971
00:46:55,800 --> 00:47:00,400
Speaker 1: camp formula that you think works that produces mores than

972
00:47:00,480 --> 00:47:03,320
Speaker 1: others in terms of like, Okay, we're going to practice

973
00:47:03,400 --> 00:47:05,600
Speaker 1: these days at these times. I mean, you've you've sort

974
00:47:05,640 --> 00:47:07,520
Speaker 1: of seen it all in that regard. I have. I've

975
00:47:07,560 --> 00:47:10,840
Speaker 1: I've been at morning practice, afternoon practice, night practices, and

976
00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:14,800
Speaker 1: I don't know listen, I'm not in the analytics department,

977
00:47:15,080 --> 00:47:17,560
Speaker 1: so all I can. All I can do is study

978
00:47:17,640 --> 00:47:19,839
Speaker 1: the team and what has worked for them and how

979
00:47:19,880 --> 00:47:21,480
Speaker 1: they've started. And a part of that, what we just

980
00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:23,719
Speaker 1: talked about was, you know, you lose your first three

981
00:47:23,760 --> 00:47:25,839
Speaker 1: games out of the blocks last season, if you're the Colts,

982
00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:28,400
Speaker 1: everything's examined that something has to change. I've been a

983
00:47:28,440 --> 00:47:30,880
Speaker 1: part of teams where it didn't work in some capacity,

984
00:47:31,040 --> 00:47:34,319
Speaker 1: and we made some change relative to that problem. Yeah.

985
00:47:34,680 --> 00:47:37,200
Speaker 1: So you know a lot of teams go through injuries

986
00:47:37,280 --> 00:47:39,480
Speaker 1: knock on wood right now. A lot of teams go

987
00:47:39,600 --> 00:47:44,200
Speaker 1: through massive training campagures. Like why last year did Quentin

988
00:47:44,280 --> 00:47:47,640
Speaker 1: Nelson and Carson Wentz injured? What was it? Their metatarsals

989
00:47:47,719 --> 00:47:51,680
Speaker 1: break their metatars? Pretty good? That's nuts? How does that happen?

990
00:47:52,080 --> 00:47:55,120
Speaker 1: So you do look at health, you look at diet,

991
00:47:55,239 --> 00:47:58,600
Speaker 1: you look at nutrition of players, you look at proximity

992
00:47:58,680 --> 00:48:01,799
Speaker 1: to facilities, and you tweet things based upon I think

993
00:48:01,880 --> 00:48:04,440
Speaker 1: also listening to your players. And so I think it's

994
00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:06,520
Speaker 1: really cool when I see change, and so I applaud

995
00:48:06,560 --> 00:48:08,800
Speaker 1: the Colts for making a few. All right, has everybody

996
00:48:08,840 --> 00:48:10,920
Speaker 1: at the NFL network, Are you guys all on board

997
00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:14,239
Speaker 1: on Shack Leonard or Shaquille Leonard? Now we're right in

998
00:48:14,400 --> 00:48:17,560
Speaker 1: on Shack or Shaquille. Okay. If his mama called him shaquille,

999
00:48:17,760 --> 00:48:20,920
Speaker 1: we're calling him Shaquille. Okay, So rule of thumb, Mama,

1000
00:48:21,120 --> 00:48:23,480
Speaker 1: we got you. And he wants to be called that.

1001
00:48:23,680 --> 00:48:26,000
Speaker 1: And you know what, he's a damn good linebacker, and

1002
00:48:26,120 --> 00:48:27,880
Speaker 1: I don't think he gets the credit he should be

1003
00:48:28,120 --> 00:48:30,640
Speaker 1: getting in his due. So if he wants to be

1004
00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:33,000
Speaker 1: called shack, if he wants to be called maniac, just

1005
00:48:33,239 --> 00:48:35,960
Speaker 1: change his name to either one. Right, Yeah, they all apply.

1006
00:48:36,320 --> 00:48:38,520
Speaker 1: All right, where are you headed after this? Green Bay

1007
00:48:38,680 --> 00:48:40,879
Speaker 1: is my next stop? Right then I hit the whole North,

1008
00:48:40,960 --> 00:48:45,640
Speaker 1: So Green Bay, Vikings, Chicago, Detroit and we'll see from there.

1009
00:48:45,880 --> 00:48:47,719
Speaker 1: And none of those do, any of those teams do

1010
00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:49,560
Speaker 1: what the Colts do in terms of out and about

1011
00:48:50,120 --> 00:48:52,040
Speaker 1: away from the facility. I have to see because after

1012
00:48:52,160 --> 00:48:55,160
Speaker 1: COVID things have changed drastically. So I anticipate a lot

1013
00:48:55,200 --> 00:48:57,719
Speaker 1: of fans in Green Bay. The Bears have had a

1014
00:48:57,800 --> 00:49:00,680
Speaker 1: good amount of fans out at Hollis Hall Lake Forest.

1015
00:49:00,960 --> 00:49:04,040
Speaker 1: I know, obviously we talked about the Packers. I'll see.

1016
00:49:04,400 --> 00:49:07,920
Speaker 1: I'll see about Minnesota with their brand new for silly

1017
00:49:07,920 --> 00:49:10,120
Speaker 1: the last three years, and then Detroit they always have

1018
00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:13,560
Speaker 1: some fans sprinkle into Alan Park. Yeah, we'll just see

1019
00:49:13,560 --> 00:49:15,759
Speaker 1: if there's as many as the Colt Scott because this

1020
00:49:15,880 --> 00:49:18,440
Speaker 1: was pretty this was pretty pumped and sold out. I'm

1021
00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:20,719
Speaker 1: saying there was like six seven thousand people here today.

1022
00:49:20,760 --> 00:49:23,120
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, two hundred yards of grand stains. I think

1023
00:49:23,160 --> 00:49:26,000
Speaker 1: they told me maybe seven fifty. Okay, so we're right

1024
00:49:26,040 --> 00:49:28,840
Speaker 1: on point. Matt, all right, fantastic. It's always a pleasure

1025
00:49:28,880 --> 00:49:30,440
Speaker 1: to talk to you. Thank you so much for your

1026
00:49:30,480 --> 00:49:32,719
Speaker 1: time on your stop here with the Colts, and we

1027
00:49:32,800 --> 00:49:34,360
Speaker 1: hope to see you soon. Thanks for having me. You

1028
00:49:34,400 --> 00:49:37,360
Speaker 1: guys rock great stuff from Stacy Dale's and Matt Taylor.

1029
00:49:37,400 --> 00:49:39,839
Speaker 1: There maytail. Let's go to the mail back. Here's the mail.

1030
00:49:39,920 --> 00:49:43,040
Speaker 1: It never fills and makes me want to like my tail.

1031
00:49:48,120 --> 00:49:52,080
Speaker 1: Our question this week comes from loyal listener vet at

1032
00:49:52,239 --> 00:49:55,719
Speaker 1: Valejo ds Alec. Pierce has looked to work down his

1033
00:49:55,840 --> 00:49:57,800
Speaker 1: get off at the line of scrimmage and Paris Campbell

1034
00:49:57,840 --> 00:50:00,840
Speaker 1: looks great with all that. What are the projections for

1035
00:50:01,000 --> 00:50:04,520
Speaker 1: this wide receiver corps? So we didn't talk a ton

1036
00:50:04,560 --> 00:50:06,560
Speaker 1: about the wide receivers early in this podcast because I

1037
00:50:06,600 --> 00:50:09,320
Speaker 1: wanted to save it for this question in this discussion.

1038
00:50:09,480 --> 00:50:14,719
Speaker 1: But it's been good so far and we've seen, i mean,

1039
00:50:15,000 --> 00:50:17,800
Speaker 1: Paris Campbell has been all over the place. That connection

1040
00:50:17,880 --> 00:50:21,480
Speaker 1: with Matt Ryan abundantly clear. How strong it is to

1041
00:50:21,600 --> 00:50:24,439
Speaker 1: start camp. They said, you know, Paris said he threw

1042
00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:27,640
Speaker 1: with Matt Ryan probably four or five times before OTAs,

1043
00:50:27,920 --> 00:50:30,479
Speaker 1: then between OTAs and training camp be through probably another

1044
00:50:30,560 --> 00:50:33,400
Speaker 1: three or four times. They are definitely locked in on

1045
00:50:33,560 --> 00:50:36,120
Speaker 1: the same page. We're seeing Paris get some yack opportunities

1046
00:50:36,120 --> 00:50:38,320
Speaker 1: on passes over the middle. Matt Ryan hit him on

1047
00:50:38,400 --> 00:50:40,919
Speaker 1: a deep ball during the Saturday practice. But we talked

1048
00:50:40,920 --> 00:50:43,200
Speaker 1: a little bit about out Pierce earlier. But you're seeing

1049
00:50:43,280 --> 00:50:46,600
Speaker 1: that connection grow and something that you know, Larry, you

1050
00:50:46,680 --> 00:50:48,719
Speaker 1: talked about that night practice with Alec Hey, you know,

1051
00:50:49,320 --> 00:50:52,400
Speaker 1: just take a deep breath. Reggie Wayne said, you know

1052
00:50:52,520 --> 00:50:54,800
Speaker 1: he knew it because he did it that early on

1053
00:50:54,920 --> 00:50:56,800
Speaker 1: in camp. You're first camp, you're pressing, you want to

1054
00:50:56,840 --> 00:50:59,319
Speaker 1: be perfect on every play, said, look, the Vets are

1055
00:50:59,320 --> 00:51:01,680
Speaker 1: going to mess up. Go out there, just play the

1056
00:51:01,760 --> 00:51:04,120
Speaker 1: let let the game come to you. I think slowly,

1057
00:51:04,160 --> 00:51:05,960
Speaker 1: but surely. You're starting to see things slow down for

1058
00:51:06,040 --> 00:51:08,440
Speaker 1: Alec Pierce, and you're seeing that connection with Matt Ryan.

1059
00:51:08,520 --> 00:51:11,160
Speaker 1: You're seeing him like this question asked from d Lift

1060
00:51:11,239 --> 00:51:13,480
Speaker 1: that you know, you're he's getting off the line of

1061
00:51:13,480 --> 00:51:16,160
Speaker 1: scrimmagers that highlight of one on ones or he had

1062
00:51:16,280 --> 00:51:19,600
Speaker 1: he had a really nice outside release on Isaiah Rodgers,

1063
00:51:19,640 --> 00:51:21,799
Speaker 1: who's a pretty damn good quarterback in his own right

1064
00:51:22,440 --> 00:51:25,239
Speaker 1: during one on ones. But other guys here we're seeing,

1065
00:51:25,239 --> 00:51:28,560
Speaker 1: you know, Ashton Duelin getting involved. But the one thing,

1066
00:51:28,600 --> 00:51:29,759
Speaker 1: and I want to throw this out to you guys,

1067
00:51:29,880 --> 00:51:31,440
Speaker 1: is you know, I've heard so many times about like,

1068
00:51:31,640 --> 00:51:33,760
Speaker 1: what's the pecking order going to be? You know, behind Pittman,

1069
00:51:33,840 --> 00:51:36,279
Speaker 1: who's who's going to have the most catches? And what's

1070
00:51:36,320 --> 00:51:38,480
Speaker 1: it gonna look? Next Week's the first depth chart right

1071
00:51:38,480 --> 00:51:40,640
Speaker 1: before the preseason. That's true, it is the first chart

1072
00:51:40,719 --> 00:51:42,239
Speaker 1: where you know, we don't have that long to wait.

1073
00:51:42,520 --> 00:51:45,839
Speaker 1: But beyond that, I mean, the depth chart is one thing.

1074
00:51:46,239 --> 00:51:48,320
Speaker 1: But the way that Frank Reich wants to operate his

1075
00:51:48,400 --> 00:51:51,080
Speaker 1: offense is spreading it around. And it seems like because

1076
00:51:51,080 --> 00:51:54,160
Speaker 1: the Colts have all these versatile guys who can play,

1077
00:51:54,480 --> 00:51:57,080
Speaker 1: you know, all three receiver positions, whether it's Pitt, Duelin,

1078
00:51:57,160 --> 00:52:01,000
Speaker 1: Pierce is getting work in their paris, that'll allows you

1079
00:52:01,120 --> 00:52:02,680
Speaker 1: did not have to say, all right, well, this is

1080
00:52:02,760 --> 00:52:04,480
Speaker 1: what the pecking order has to be, because week to

1081
00:52:04,520 --> 00:52:06,759
Speaker 1: week it could change. And that's been the Frank Reich

1082
00:52:06,800 --> 00:52:10,239
Speaker 1: offense standing back to Philadelphia, it's it's it's spread the

1083
00:52:10,280 --> 00:52:12,680
Speaker 1: ball around. Seven or eight guys every week are going

1084
00:52:12,760 --> 00:52:15,279
Speaker 1: to catch a pass and it could be your day

1085
00:52:15,360 --> 00:52:18,279
Speaker 1: based on the matchups and the scheme. I mean, you know,

1086
00:52:18,320 --> 00:52:21,680
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago, he's like, oh, Zach Pascal

1087
00:52:21,719 --> 00:52:23,759
Speaker 1: would go three or four weeks without really being a

1088
00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:26,759
Speaker 1: huge impact in the offense, and then he would go

1089
00:52:26,920 --> 00:52:30,080
Speaker 1: for you know, five or seventy and two touchdowns. It

1090
00:52:30,239 --> 00:52:33,440
Speaker 1: just depends on how you're being played that day. And

1091
00:52:33,560 --> 00:52:35,600
Speaker 1: I saw something the other day. I mean, Matt Ryan

1092
00:52:35,760 --> 00:52:39,040
Speaker 1: really is the perfect quarterback for this offense. A couple

1093
00:52:39,080 --> 00:52:41,960
Speaker 1: of years ago in twenty sixteen, I guess it's more

1094
00:52:42,239 --> 00:52:45,839
Speaker 1: more long long ago and the years go by fast.

1095
00:52:45,880 --> 00:52:48,719
Speaker 1: That's what six years ago. But that year he said

1096
00:52:48,719 --> 00:52:53,160
Speaker 1: an NFL record thirteen different receivers or pass catchers caught

1097
00:52:53,160 --> 00:52:56,600
Speaker 1: a touchdown pass from him that season. So he's gonna

1098
00:52:56,600 --> 00:52:59,279
Speaker 1: spread it around. And you're talking about who is going

1099
00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:02,200
Speaker 1: to be the guy and have the most catches after

1100
00:53:02,320 --> 00:53:05,080
Speaker 1: Michael Pittman Junior. Here's the hot tag for the week.

1101
00:53:05,200 --> 00:53:08,080
Speaker 1: It's gonna be nine Hines. Yes, Naie Hines is going

1102
00:53:08,160 --> 00:53:11,040
Speaker 1: to be the second leading receiver on this team. Just

1103
00:53:11,160 --> 00:53:14,120
Speaker 1: in terms of overall catches. I think he's gonna blow

1104
00:53:14,719 --> 00:53:18,440
Speaker 1: his high water mark out of the three twice and

1105
00:53:18,560 --> 00:53:21,120
Speaker 1: eighteen and twenty. I think he's gonna be around seventy

1106
00:53:21,160 --> 00:53:23,520
Speaker 1: five or eighty this year, I really do. I think

1107
00:53:23,560 --> 00:53:25,520
Speaker 1: one of the things that you know, going back to

1108
00:53:25,560 --> 00:53:27,759
Speaker 1: what JJ was talking about at the top, you know,

1109
00:53:27,880 --> 00:53:31,719
Speaker 1: we mentioned Paris Campbell, we mentioned Alec Pierce. We haven't

1110
00:53:31,760 --> 00:53:35,560
Speaker 1: really mentioned Michael Pittman because he's just so steady out here. Yeah,

1111
00:53:35,760 --> 00:53:39,000
Speaker 1: I mean, we haven't said he's flashed because it's almost

1112
00:53:39,040 --> 00:53:41,600
Speaker 1: like he is just the guy you just except that

1113
00:53:41,880 --> 00:53:44,640
Speaker 1: from him that Pump and Go today. Oh man, I mean,

1114
00:53:44,760 --> 00:53:46,440
Speaker 1: forget about it. I mean, it's one of those things

1115
00:53:46,480 --> 00:53:48,880
Speaker 1: that I am impressed by him. And the reason I

1116
00:53:48,920 --> 00:53:51,160
Speaker 1: think I'm impressed is because it just this is just

1117
00:53:51,480 --> 00:53:53,800
Speaker 1: normal what he does. And that's what I am so

1118
00:53:54,040 --> 00:53:56,440
Speaker 1: excited for to see what he's gonna do with with

1119
00:53:56,560 --> 00:53:59,520
Speaker 1: Matt Ryan there, and it's just going to it makes

1120
00:53:59,560 --> 00:54:02,480
Speaker 1: everybody else better. And that's why we're talking about, you know,

1121
00:54:02,600 --> 00:54:04,919
Speaker 1: what Paris Campbell has done, what Alec Pierce has done,

1122
00:54:05,120 --> 00:54:08,000
Speaker 1: Frank Rice is, Frank Reich is gushing about Ashton duland

1123
00:54:08,000 --> 00:54:10,160
Speaker 1: we're talking about it because we know what we have

1124
00:54:10,800 --> 00:54:12,840
Speaker 1: in Michael Pittman. So that's one of the things that

1125
00:54:13,200 --> 00:54:15,120
Speaker 1: you know, I completely agree with what Matt seem with

1126
00:54:15,200 --> 00:54:17,360
Speaker 1: Naim Hines. But I wouldn't be shocked to see a

1127
00:54:17,440 --> 00:54:20,480
Speaker 1: handful of guys and that forty plus range, you know,

1128
00:54:20,560 --> 00:54:22,359
Speaker 1: as far as receptions for the year and that that's

1129
00:54:22,440 --> 00:54:24,759
Speaker 1: great to see because Matt Ryan's a kind of guy

1130
00:54:24,840 --> 00:54:27,000
Speaker 1: to throw the ball around and I'm really anxious to

1131
00:54:27,000 --> 00:54:29,080
Speaker 1: see kind of what that looks like. They're openings here.

1132
00:54:29,120 --> 00:54:32,239
Speaker 1: I mean, you look at the snap counts from last year.

1133
00:54:32,360 --> 00:54:35,000
Speaker 1: Zach Pascal's at seventy eight percent of the snaps. T

1134
00:54:35,320 --> 00:54:38,240
Speaker 1: Y when he played, played fifty three percent of the snaps.

1135
00:54:40,640 --> 00:54:43,400
Speaker 1: You know, those two guys are those are snaps that

1136
00:54:43,520 --> 00:54:45,960
Speaker 1: you fill in. You know Al Pierce will be one

1137
00:54:45,960 --> 00:54:49,800
Speaker 1: of those guys, but Nihim Hinz absolutely could fill in.

1138
00:54:49,920 --> 00:54:52,279
Speaker 1: Even if he's a running back, he can take a

1139
00:54:52,360 --> 00:54:55,360
Speaker 1: chunk of those. The other thing I looked at the Colts,

1140
00:54:55,719 --> 00:54:57,960
Speaker 1: this is a little interesting. Zach Pascal last year led

1141
00:54:58,000 --> 00:54:59,879
Speaker 1: the team. He had six hundred and sixty four snap

1142
00:55:00,120 --> 00:55:02,480
Speaker 1: in the slot you had, Michael Pittman had one hundred

1143
00:55:02,480 --> 00:55:06,640
Speaker 1: and fifty two, Paris had I think he had sixteen.

1144
00:55:07,239 --> 00:55:09,600
Speaker 1: T Y had fifty seven duel and had fifty seven

1145
00:55:09,719 --> 00:55:12,360
Speaker 1: last year. So you're gonna there's gonna be a pretty

1146
00:55:12,400 --> 00:55:14,759
Speaker 1: big opening in the slot, and I think that's where

1147
00:55:14,840 --> 00:55:18,200
Speaker 1: Paris with a full As long as he can stay healthy,

1148
00:55:18,640 --> 00:55:20,879
Speaker 1: Paris can really be that guy to step in there

1149
00:55:20,920 --> 00:55:22,680
Speaker 1: in the slot and make some place. I also think

1150
00:55:22,719 --> 00:55:25,200
Speaker 1: I love Matt using the phrase pass catchers. And this

1151
00:55:25,320 --> 00:55:27,960
Speaker 1: goes to Casey's point on Ogletree. Look at these tight

1152
00:55:28,080 --> 00:55:29,839
Speaker 1: ends that you have to work with as well. They're

1153
00:55:29,880 --> 00:55:31,640
Speaker 1: gonna cut have bowls come in their way. So when

1154
00:55:31,640 --> 00:55:34,680
Speaker 1: you talk about distribution and variety, those guys are gonna

1155
00:55:34,680 --> 00:55:36,880
Speaker 1: be in there. Mo has had some big grabs, uh

1156
00:55:37,080 --> 00:55:39,400
Speaker 1: you know, Kyl and Granson's been in there an awful lot.

1157
00:55:39,480 --> 00:55:42,640
Speaker 1: Gilani Drue, I mean that that room's crazy packed as well.

1158
00:55:42,719 --> 00:55:46,200
Speaker 1: You know it's funny we talked you. You mentioned why

1159
00:55:46,200 --> 00:55:49,160
Speaker 1: am I drop on his name Granson? I mean with

1160
00:55:49,360 --> 00:55:51,839
Speaker 1: the other tight ends, doesn't he look so small? It's

1161
00:55:51,880 --> 00:55:54,520
Speaker 1: been yeah, and he's a massive human being. I look

1162
00:55:54,560 --> 00:55:57,400
Speaker 1: at him next to Ogletree, Gilanni, Woods and Mo, and

1163
00:55:57,480 --> 00:55:59,600
Speaker 1: it's like he's only two minute three. That guy doesn't

1164
00:55:59,600 --> 00:56:01,279
Speaker 1: belong in the position group. It's like, oh no, no,

1165
00:56:01,360 --> 00:56:03,600
Speaker 1: those guys are just outliers. I set out of those guys,

1166
00:56:03,640 --> 00:56:07,920
Speaker 1: you just named mo Alei Cox is the second short, right, Yeah,

1167
00:56:08,280 --> 00:56:10,680
Speaker 1: yeah it is. It is wild watching that that crew.

1168
00:56:10,760 --> 00:56:12,719
Speaker 1: But no, you're right. I think pass catchers is such

1169
00:56:12,760 --> 00:56:15,760
Speaker 1: a key point to this because that's the important factor.

1170
00:56:15,800 --> 00:56:18,680
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter what spot you're playing, because there's gonna

1171
00:56:18,680 --> 00:56:21,440
Speaker 1: be a lot utilized whether you're running back wide receiver

1172
00:56:21,560 --> 00:56:24,240
Speaker 1: or tied in on the depth chart. Mate, I'm excited

1173
00:56:24,280 --> 00:56:25,960
Speaker 1: for your random thought. Right, wait, let's get to it.

1174
00:56:26,080 --> 00:56:32,520
Speaker 1: Here we go, Mayte random thought? Oh the week? And

1175
00:56:32,719 --> 00:56:36,720
Speaker 1: w why is the carpet? All win Todd? I don't know, Marco.

1176
00:56:36,920 --> 00:56:39,239
Speaker 1: You guys going out of town too? If it's cold there,

1177
00:56:39,440 --> 00:56:47,319
Speaker 1: these vans get good cash milingt shot off. All right, guys,

1178
00:56:47,360 --> 00:56:50,080
Speaker 1: we all know about this weird Kyler Murray thing. He

1179
00:56:50,160 --> 00:56:53,040
Speaker 1: had a clause in his contract saying he needed to

1180
00:56:53,080 --> 00:56:56,080
Speaker 1: do four hours of independent study, and then they took

1181
00:56:56,120 --> 00:56:59,239
Speaker 1: it out because of social media backlash. Everybody's saying, oh,

1182
00:56:59,320 --> 00:57:01,680
Speaker 1: this guy doesn't study. And then he holds a press

1183
00:57:01,719 --> 00:57:04,200
Speaker 1: confort and says, how do I get to the NFL

1184
00:57:04,239 --> 00:57:06,040
Speaker 1: and succeed and play at a high level if I

1185
00:57:06,120 --> 00:57:09,400
Speaker 1: don't watch tape and I don't study and know my opponents?

1186
00:57:09,480 --> 00:57:12,160
Speaker 1: So it's this whole thing. I want to know, guys,

1187
00:57:12,360 --> 00:57:16,120
Speaker 1: what part of your ideal contract that you were going

1188
00:57:16,160 --> 00:57:19,000
Speaker 1: to sign one day because of the superstars that you are,

1189
00:57:19,680 --> 00:57:22,880
Speaker 1: what part of your ideal contract would you fight for

1190
00:57:23,840 --> 00:57:27,120
Speaker 1: or fight to take out if someone was trying to

1191
00:57:27,200 --> 00:57:30,080
Speaker 1: put something in Lara. I know I can see and

1192
00:57:30,120 --> 00:57:31,720
Speaker 1: I can see the wheels guy, and I did not

1193
00:57:31,800 --> 00:57:33,720
Speaker 1: look at this question until you pose it. Now I'm

1194
00:57:33,800 --> 00:57:37,920
Speaker 1: reviewing it. UM included in I want a shoe allowance,

Speaker 1: like that's that's what I need, a sneakers STI what's

1196
00:57:44,040 --> 00:57:46,800

00:57:47,240 --> 00:57:50,680
Speaker 1: I think is? I could make it? Don't calp it.

1198
00:57:50,800 --> 00:57:53,520
Speaker 1: I don't know. All right, I could get up there,

00:58:36,960 --> 00:58:39,160
Speaker 1: It's based on where we are at camp, in the

1212
00:58:39,240 --> 00:58:42,880
Speaker 1: attire that I'm currently wearing. I could wear basketball shorts

1213
00:58:42,960 --> 00:58:45,479
Speaker 1: and tennis shoes every day. So that's what I would

1214
00:58:45,520 --> 00:58:50,800
Speaker 1: fight for. So you're going to find uniform exactly exactly,

1215
00:58:50,920 --> 00:58:52,960
Speaker 1: like like I'm not a big like I don't like

1216
00:58:53,160 --> 00:58:55,640
Speaker 1: dress shoes, like I'm not saying I wear dress shoes

1217
00:58:55,680 --> 00:58:58,800
Speaker 1: at work. Like our our work attire is definitely a

1218
00:58:58,840 --> 00:59:00,880
Speaker 1: lot more casual than a lot of but I don't

1219
00:59:00,920 --> 00:59:03,360
Speaker 1: know what it is. I never like wearing khaki pants,

1220
00:59:03,400 --> 00:59:05,080
Speaker 1: and I wear khaki pants everybody to wear. So like

1221
00:59:05,160 --> 00:59:08,560
Speaker 1: I wish I could wear basketball shorts, a T shirt

1222
00:59:08,680 --> 00:59:10,040
Speaker 1: or whatever. You know what. So if you weren't doing

1223
00:59:10,120 --> 00:59:13,480
Speaker 1: this job, you'd be a gym teacher, Like so my cousin,

1224
00:59:13,600 --> 00:59:16,280
Speaker 1: is it you finish line well? Or I could be like,

1225
00:59:16,560 --> 00:59:18,400
Speaker 1: you know, a radio like I'm a radio guy. So

1226
00:59:18,480 --> 00:59:20,440
Speaker 1: I think of like local radio guy J and V.

1227
00:59:20,800 --> 00:59:23,200
Speaker 1: I don't think he's wore anything other than basketball shorts

1228
00:59:23,240 --> 00:59:25,919
Speaker 1: and a T shirt in thirty years. So like that's

1229
00:59:26,200 --> 00:59:28,200
Speaker 1: like me is either a gym teacher or that. So

1230
00:59:28,400 --> 00:59:30,800
Speaker 1: that's that, that would be me local radio guys rock

1231
00:59:31,320 --> 00:59:34,920
Speaker 1: if on the right home, I need to know what

1232
00:59:35,000 --> 00:59:37,520
Speaker 1: do you what do you guys? Well cook if someone

1233
00:59:37,680 --> 00:59:41,160
Speaker 1: told me, hey, here's this bazillion dollar contract with all

1234
00:59:41,200 --> 00:59:45,240
Speaker 1: these incentives, but the one thing you can't do is

1235
00:59:45,320 --> 00:59:48,200
Speaker 1: you can no longer quote movies. Oh that I was

1236
00:59:48,200 --> 00:59:51,560
Speaker 1: going to say impression impressions. Yeah, I don't know. I

1237
00:59:51,640 --> 00:59:54,680
Speaker 1: mean there's days where I don't speak unless it's a

1238
00:59:54,760 --> 00:59:58,160
Speaker 1: movie quote, you know, like it's just behind behind the

1239
00:59:58,240 --> 01:00:00,840
Speaker 1: curtain here sharing an office with me. There are numerous

1240
01:00:00,920 --> 01:00:04,280
Speaker 1: times that I've heard Matt have a conversation with five

1241
01:00:04,440 --> 01:00:06,520
Speaker 1: different people that are not in the room. It's just

1242
01:00:06,720 --> 01:00:09,520
Speaker 1: Matt in five different voice, or Casey says one word

1243
01:00:09,560 --> 01:00:12,840
Speaker 1: and it's a buzzword for an entire you know. So

1244
01:00:12,960 --> 01:00:15,400
Speaker 1: I would say, not being able to quote movies, I'm

1245
01:00:15,440 --> 01:00:17,640
Speaker 1: not sure I could sign that. And if I couldn't

1246
01:00:17,680 --> 01:00:20,640
Speaker 1: tell jokes or dad jokes anymore, I'm not sure I

1247
01:00:20,720 --> 01:00:24,480
Speaker 1: could survive. One note. Before we get to JJ's mate's

1248
01:00:24,560 --> 01:00:26,480
Speaker 1: dad jokes were so bad. At lunch the other day,

1249
01:00:26,520 --> 01:00:29,840
Speaker 1: I got up and I took my food and left. Well,

1250
01:00:29,880 --> 01:00:31,760
Speaker 1: you've got to end it the way that I mean.

1251
01:00:31,920 --> 01:00:34,480
Speaker 1: She she moved her food, but then she wouldn't grab

1252
01:00:34,560 --> 01:00:36,760
Speaker 1: the food and came back and sat down. I actually

1253
01:00:36,840 --> 01:00:39,720
Speaker 1: think that Matt one. I did you know Matt because

1254
01:00:39,760 --> 01:00:45,440
Speaker 1: you I just enjoy his company so much. But the

1255
01:00:45,640 --> 01:00:48,000
Speaker 1: dad jokes, I mean it was a progressive com and

1256
01:00:48,080 --> 01:00:50,600
Speaker 1: I know you hate them so much, which is why

1257
01:00:50,720 --> 01:00:54,480
Speaker 1: I always come locked and loaded Lara. Before the crowbar

1258
01:00:54,680 --> 01:01:01,080
Speaker 1: was invented, crows just drank it home. JJ saved the conversation. Please,

1259
01:01:01,200 --> 01:01:04,760
Speaker 1: what do you call it when a priest drops? What

1260
01:01:04,800 --> 01:01:06,720
Speaker 1: do you call when a priest drops a frozen waffle

1261
01:01:06,760 --> 01:01:08,640
Speaker 1: on the beach? What would you say to him? Oh

1262
01:01:08,720 --> 01:01:11,640
Speaker 1: my gosh, a frozen waffle on a San Diego pod? Right,

1263
01:01:11,880 --> 01:01:15,560
Speaker 1: so yeah, yeah, I love it. My wife told me

1264
01:01:15,600 --> 01:01:17,919
Speaker 1: to put ketchup on the grocery list. Now I can't

1265
01:01:17,960 --> 01:01:22,400
Speaker 1: read anything. Oh look at they don't get it. The

1266
01:01:22,520 --> 01:01:25,720
Speaker 1: ketchups on the list, and you can't. I told my wife.

1267
01:01:26,480 --> 01:01:28,680
Speaker 1: I told my wife she needs to embrace her mistakes.

1268
01:01:29,080 --> 01:01:33,800
Speaker 1: And then she gave me a hug. That's a good one.

1269
01:01:33,840 --> 01:01:36,200
Speaker 1: I like this. Yesterday my doctor told me I have

1270
01:01:36,320 --> 01:01:39,080
Speaker 1: six months to live. I couldn't pay the bill, so

1271
01:01:39,200 --> 01:01:46,440
Speaker 1: he gave me another six months. Contact moving on those

1272
01:01:46,760 --> 01:01:54,560
Speaker 1: should definitely mind. Mine was gonna be specifically for Darren Williams,

1273
01:01:54,560 --> 01:01:58,360
Speaker 1: who is our website manager. Uh. I was gonna put

1274
01:01:58,440 --> 01:02:00,360
Speaker 1: in my contract that I get to have one great

1275
01:02:00,400 --> 01:02:02,480
Speaker 1: pun in a headline every month and she can't complain

1276
01:02:02,520 --> 01:02:10,120
Speaker 1: about it. I like that, I it does my my.

1277
01:02:10,640 --> 01:02:12,480
Speaker 1: It started when I was in high school and I

1278
01:02:12,520 --> 01:02:15,440
Speaker 1: was writing for the high school newspaper and we had

1279
01:02:15,480 --> 01:02:17,320
Speaker 1: this kid on the basketball team. His last name was

1280
01:02:17,360 --> 01:02:22,320
Speaker 1: Barnes and he was on fire. So my headline Barnes

1281
01:02:22,400 --> 01:02:26,240
Speaker 1: burning as boys basketball beats and then whatever team it was,

1282
01:02:26,400 --> 01:02:28,640
Speaker 1: it was a literation and it was a pun and

1283
01:02:29,200 --> 01:02:32,880
Speaker 1: it was fantastic. It was My obsession with puns and

1284
01:02:32,960 --> 01:02:38,600
Speaker 1: headlines began at a young age, a young age that otherwise, Honestly,

1285
01:02:38,640 --> 01:02:40,760
Speaker 1: if I signed the contract Kylie Murray signed, you could

1286
01:02:40,760 --> 01:02:43,640
Speaker 1: put a contract in there that stipulates once a week

1287
01:02:43,920 --> 01:02:46,080
Speaker 1: Dave Nickerbocker gets to say, hey, JJ is a real

1288
01:02:46,240 --> 01:02:54,720
Speaker 1: dumb ass. That would be fine by me. Okay, it'd

1289
01:02:54,760 --> 01:02:57,000
Speaker 1: be fine by me. I don't care. I take the

1290
01:02:57,120 --> 01:03:01,200
Speaker 1: money the money, I take degree degradation for the dough.

1291
01:03:01,400 --> 01:03:03,840
Speaker 1: So that's that's what you're saying, is it doesn't matter.

1292
01:03:07,800 --> 01:03:09,800
Speaker 1: At first I was like whoa, and then they could

1293
01:03:09,800 --> 01:03:12,840
Speaker 1: say a lot worse to get that's it? No, I

1294
01:03:12,920 --> 01:03:15,760
Speaker 1: mean man that man, I feel like that we have

1295
01:03:15,920 --> 01:03:18,760
Speaker 1: pads on. We've come in like full fours, become strong.

1296
01:03:18,880 --> 01:03:23,360
Speaker 1: We've been hitting today. Well done. So that was that

1297
01:03:23,440 --> 01:03:25,800
Speaker 1: was a random thought that came into my brain and

1298
01:03:25,960 --> 01:03:28,760
Speaker 1: all spawned from Kyler Murray not studying though, and now

1299
01:03:28,800 --> 01:03:31,760
Speaker 1: they haven't gotten rid of it now right out, which

1300
01:03:31,960 --> 01:03:34,160
Speaker 1: come on now, I mean, once you put it out there,

1301
01:03:34,160 --> 01:03:37,280
Speaker 1: you can't retract it because now for him, like what's

1302
01:03:37,520 --> 01:03:39,680
Speaker 1: in there for a reason, he's not going to go

1303
01:03:39,760 --> 01:03:44,000
Speaker 1: play for the out He's not. But all right, well

1304
