That's why Jaymney Chris, 5 00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:27,800 Speaker 1: this is Inside Football with former Colts and the NFL 6 00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:32,000 Speaker 1: coach Rick Venturi. Wil come in Guten tog and thanks 7 00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:35,040 Speaker 1: for coming back here to Inside Football with Rick Venturi. 8 00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:37,800 Speaker 1: I'm Matt Taylor with Rick who's back with us, and 9 00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:40,400 Speaker 1: today we're putting to bed the winning Carolina for the 10 00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:43,519 Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts and getting you ready for Germany, the Germany 11 00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:46,920 Speaker 1: game against the New England Patriots. In frank for coming 12 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:49,160 Speaker 1: up on Sunday, Rick, how are we doing today? 13 00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:52,800 Speaker 2: Hey man, We're doing really good. We're looking at an 14 00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:56,960 Speaker 2: eighty degree day and so you know, late this afternoon 15 00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:59,840 Speaker 2: we may we may get the gold wing out. Oh baby, 16 00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:04,240 Speaker 2: I told you those last days. You know, the back 17 00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:07,360 Speaker 2: is decent, so we might get a half hour at least. 18 00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:09,480 Speaker 1: I told you, just wait a couple of weeks and 19 00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:11,720 Speaker 1: we're going to get one of those days. And today 20 00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:14,520 Speaker 1: is the day, so certainly much better weather here today 21 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,039 Speaker 1: in Central Indiana than the Colts are going to have 22 00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:20,679 Speaker 1: over the weekend, I suppose in Frankfurt, Germany. Rick I 23 00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 1: saw thirties and forties and a lot of wind and 24 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,000 Speaker 1: a lot of rain. And we'll see if that roof 25 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:30,120 Speaker 1: is in place for the Colts in Germany like it 26 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,000 Speaker 1: was last Sunday when the Chiefs beat the Patriots. But 27 00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:35,679 Speaker 1: soak up that weather today because I think in Germany 28 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:36,880 Speaker 1: it's gonna get nasty. 29 00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:40,920 Speaker 2: Dude, absolutely the dual and Doucheland or whatever they call 30 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:44,399 Speaker 2: it over there. So no, it'll be good. I'm actually 31 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 2: from a pure football standpoint, and I know the stress 32 00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:52,120 Speaker 2: that it puts on everyone, But from a pure football standpoint, 33 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:54,480 Speaker 2: I think that there's really things that we can do 34 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 2: in Frankfurt that we might and we'll get into that 35 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 2: in the game planning, yeah, that we might not be 36 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:02,560 Speaker 2: able to do in Foxborough. I mean, even though I 37 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 2: think because of their visibility, not so much with players anymore, 38 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:10,120 Speaker 2: but maybe with Belichick, they'll probably have, you know, a 39 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 2: bit of a bit of a home field, but it 40 00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:14,920 Speaker 2: isn't gonna be like Foxborough. 41 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,640 Speaker 1: Well, I just I think psychologically too, not having to 42 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 1: go there and play in that stadium where the Colts 43 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 1: have come up short seven straight times. I think there's 44 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:23,080 Speaker 1: a lot to that. 45 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 2: I do. No, I believe that. I think that this 46 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 2: is a big advantage Colts. Really I do. 47 00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:31,079 Speaker 1: I do too. All right, we'll talk all about that, 48 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,400 Speaker 1: but first let's put the bow on the Panthers win 49 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:36,520 Speaker 1: for the Colts. Going back to last Sunday, we talked 50 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:39,359 Speaker 1: about it on the postgame show than on Monday night 51 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:42,840 Speaker 1: on Colts Roundtable Live. But the offense it was sluggish, Ricky. 52 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 1: They didn't turn the football over. That was the big positive, 53 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 1: right as the Colts are now four and oh this 54 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,679 Speaker 1: season in games when they take good care of the football. 55 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 1: The defense was dominant for sacks, three takeaways. Kenny Moore 56 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:56,800 Speaker 1: had a day for the ages, becoming the first Colts 57 00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,960 Speaker 1: player ever with two pick sixes in the same game. 58 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 1: So all in all, it was a it was a 59 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:04,480 Speaker 1: fun game for the Colts. Colts kind of checked all 60 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:07,680 Speaker 1: the boxes, got the job done from a business standpoint, 61 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 1: and now it's on New England. To steal a line 62 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 1: from Bill Belichick. 63 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,560 Speaker 2: Yeah it was. It was really a fun day. I mean, 64 00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:17,520 Speaker 2: you know, to see that victory formation and really enjoy it, 65 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 2: to feel the vibe on the way home on the plane. 66 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 2: There's just something about winning that matters. It just matters, 67 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 2: and it feels so so good when you put in 68 00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:29,240 Speaker 2: that investment. And as you just said, they just took 69 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:33,360 Speaker 2: an inferior team, They smothered them, and they literally demoralized 70 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 2: the young, hapless quarterback. And you know, really the story, 71 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:41,080 Speaker 2: the overall story, was the defensive dominance more and Buckner 72 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 2: and offense taking care of the ball. I mean, you know, 73 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 2: I thought that there are several things that I did 74 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:51,320 Speaker 2: like about it, beyond just the actual numbers, the two touchdowns, 75 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 2: all the things that everybody knows about. But from my 76 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 2: coaching standpoint, there's things that I think have longer I 77 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 2: think longer implications I thought for the first time, and 78 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 2: I really like this. Okay, we played with some defensive 79 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:08,840 Speaker 2: diversity if you look at it, if you look at 80 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 2: this game diversity. We played a lot of snaps of 81 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 2: cover two or cover eight strong cover eight week, which 82 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:20,039 Speaker 2: means that we helped our corners. Okay, just from a 83 00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:23,720 Speaker 2: layman's term, those are defenses where you roll up either 84 00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 2: both sides or one side. And I believe that we 85 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:30,600 Speaker 2: can hang in there with our young corners, as long 86 00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:33,040 Speaker 2: as we don't hang him out to dry like we're 87 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:36,359 Speaker 2: doing game after game after game. If we play a 88 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:39,280 Speaker 2: balance and teams know they don't have them for sixty 89 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:42,800 Speaker 2: minutes one on one, I honestly believe that we can 90 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,840 Speaker 2: really hang in there. And of course when Juju gets back, 91 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:48,600 Speaker 2: that makes us different. But I was really pleased to 92 00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 2: see Baker in there. I thought we had a bit 93 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 2: of a panic after he had those two calls. I 94 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:58,279 Speaker 2: still think he's far superior to Tony on the outside. 95 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:00,680 Speaker 2: I don't think there's any question about it, and so 96 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 2: I really like that. I also like the fact that 97 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 2: we brought a lot of edge pressure on first down, 98 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 2: which kind of creates a bear. It's not a bear, 99 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:13,160 Speaker 2: but it creates it, and it puts a little pressure 100 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 2: on that running game. And then I thought the best 101 00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 2: part of it, besides the cover two, was the fact 102 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:22,679 Speaker 2: that we really were creative in our use of Buckner. 103 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:26,320 Speaker 2: Buckner was sometimes, particularly on third down, when you move 104 00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:29,039 Speaker 2: him around. He was at end, he was at the three. 105 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 2: We put him at the nose and the overload, and 106 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:34,720 Speaker 2: he just killed Bozeman at the center. I mean that 107 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:38,159 Speaker 2: that was the game tempo setter in the beginning. So 108 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:41,839 Speaker 2: I think those three things boded really well. And I 109 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:43,919 Speaker 2: would just say to Gus, you got to keep doing that. 110 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:46,160 Speaker 2: It can't be a one off. We can't, you know, 111 00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:49,279 Speaker 2: just beat a hapless team and and you know, utilize 112 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:51,159 Speaker 2: all this scheme. We got to continue to do that. 113 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:53,600 Speaker 2: I think if we continue to do that, we're going 114 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 2: to be fine. Now we're a little bit thin right now. 115 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:59,240 Speaker 2: And it did show, you know, when you don't have Grover, 116 00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:02,720 Speaker 2: then you don't have Franklin, you know, and then you 117 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 2: have to relieve Buck some You can't play every down, 118 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:10,279 Speaker 2: and then you play Leonard over Speed on first down. 119 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:13,720 Speaker 2: You are really really you have really softened it up. 120 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 2: And I would say the only alarm there is the 121 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:20,240 Speaker 2: one hundred and thirty eight yards rushing a four point 122 00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:22,279 Speaker 2: nine that they got because they're not very good and 123 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 2: they were able to do that despite now the overwhelming 124 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:30,160 Speaker 2: good performance by the defense masks that. But I think 125 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:32,680 Speaker 2: you have to critically and analyze that when you're looking 126 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:36,039 Speaker 2: at Belichick this week, who will take advantage of those? 127 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,160 Speaker 2: And I, you know, I agree with you. I think, 128 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 2: you know, I think our offense I think you can 129 00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 2: criticize it in the post game, which we do a 130 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,039 Speaker 2: lot a lot of times. You know, people in the 131 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 2: post game and the as I call it all the time, 132 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 2: the pathological, you know, rehashing of the game. You say, well, 133 00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:55,880 Speaker 2: you know, it was only one hundred ninety six yards 134 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,280 Speaker 2: and it was this and that. But I felt like 135 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:01,440 Speaker 2: that the offense played smartest way in that you could 136 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:04,560 Speaker 2: sense you and I could sense it from upstairs. Certainly 137 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 2: you could down below that our defense was going to 138 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 2: kill them, and if anything, our defense was going to score, 139 00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:12,680 Speaker 2: like we scored fourteen. But you know, I said to 140 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 2: you one time, sometimes I think we're better off today 141 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,240 Speaker 2: with the defense out there. I think we'll score. But 142 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 2: I think our offense was smart in that they didn't 143 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:22,880 Speaker 2: turn it over. They did not turn it over. The 144 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:25,840 Speaker 2: only alarm for me, okay, here's the only alarm for 145 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 2: me on offense. It's not what necessarily the result was Sunday, 146 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 2: but we are having trouble what I call the Jaguar plan. 147 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 2: The Jaguar plan is the best plan to stop the Colts, 148 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:42,560 Speaker 2: And basically it was a poor man's Jaguar plan this 149 00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 2: week that you know, basically, Carolina used without Jaguar people, 150 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 2: but they really did hold us to thirteen in one 151 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 2: ninety six, and they really stuffed the running game. And 152 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 2: that is you know, the Bear defense up front, tough man, 153 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 2: dea man coverage, get it and then blitz like hell on 154 00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 2: third down. And you know that is kind of the rhythm. 155 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:07,160 Speaker 2: And we're going to play a coach who is the 156 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:12,679 Speaker 2: biggest you know, copycat game specific guys that is gonna 157 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 2: He's gonna scratch where it itches. So we really have 158 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 2: to have that fixed. One. We go to Germany here 159 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 2: and I think particularly it starts with we really have 160 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 2: to figure out how to run the ball versus Bear. 161 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:28,000 Speaker 2: I thought we were on our way, but we didn't 162 00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 2: look like a Sunday. We have to get back and 163 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 2: get to some power. I think, you know, we've got 164 00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:36,960 Speaker 2: to place some more two tight ends. Sometimes we got 165 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:39,560 Speaker 2: plenty of tight ends to deal with and be able 166 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:44,000 Speaker 2: to run some power off tackles, some seals and don't 167 00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:46,560 Speaker 2: just let that front stop us. You know what I'm saying, 168 00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 2: because you know, at the end of the day, I'm 169 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:52,120 Speaker 2: fine with what we did. I think it was smart 170 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:54,800 Speaker 2: in many ways, but we're not gonna We're not gonna 171 00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 2: beat many people with thirteen points. You're just really not 172 00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:00,600 Speaker 2: as you go on, and man, we can get this 173 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:03,200 Speaker 2: one in Germany. This season is in our hands. It 174 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:06,640 Speaker 2: is in our hands, really and so and I'm trying 175 00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 2: to be helpful here. I'm never trying to be hurtful 176 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 2: with any criticism. I'm just always trying to be helpful. 177 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 2: And in the end, you know, with the season on 178 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:18,680 Speaker 2: the brink, we live to fight another day. And man, 179 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 2: if we can even it up here in Europe, right 180 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:23,080 Speaker 2: and oh man, it's looking good after the bye. 181 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, trying to get to five and five. You've won 182 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,839 Speaker 1: two games in a row. Then psychologically you feel like 183 00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 1: you're on top of the world. You get a much 184 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:32,559 Speaker 1: needed week off, some rest. I mean really, it's the 185 00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:35,600 Speaker 1: first time the Colts have had any extended time off 186 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:37,839 Speaker 1: because they don't play on Thursday night, so they haven't 187 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:41,240 Speaker 1: had that luxury, if you will, with the many buys. 188 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:44,040 Speaker 1: So you're talking about really since the end of late 189 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 1: July till now without having you know, a couple of 190 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:49,480 Speaker 1: days off in consecutive fashion to kind of rest and 191 00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 1: recuperate and get ready for the home stretch. And that's 192 00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:54,440 Speaker 1: what the cults are trying to obtain coming up this 193 00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:57,200 Speaker 1: Sunday in Germany with a win over the Patriots. So 194 00:09:57,760 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 1: let's get to know these Pats, Rick, and this is 195 00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:02,680 Speaker 1: this is really weird. I mean, as a guy that's 196 00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:07,280 Speaker 1: been following this rivalry and that franchise for the better 197 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:09,840 Speaker 1: part of two and a half decades, it's weird to 198 00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:12,520 Speaker 1: see the Patriots at two and seven. They are losers 199 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 1: of two in a row, five of their last six. 200 00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 1: They're in last place in the AFC East. They're in 201 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:22,600 Speaker 1: last place in the conference. This is the worst start 202 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:25,960 Speaker 1: under Bill Belichick since the coach's first season there in 203 00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 1: two thousand in New England. These are just uncharted waters 204 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:31,599 Speaker 1: here for the Patriots, Rick. I mean, this is a 205 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 1: team that's spent again the last twenty years contending for 206 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:38,199 Speaker 1: Super Bowls, and now they're five games under five hundred 207 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:39,960 Speaker 1: for the first time since the end of that same 208 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 1: two thousand season. So we'll get into the x's and 209 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,240 Speaker 1: o's and the offense and defense coming up in just 210 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:48,240 Speaker 1: a second. But I mean, the big picture here for 211 00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:51,440 Speaker 1: the Patriots is so abnormal because for all the things 212 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 1: you could say about, you know, a Bill Belichick coach 213 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 1: team over the years. The one thing you can never 214 00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 1: say about it is that it beat itself. They have 215 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 1: dumb mistake. They got a lot of penalties and no playmakers. 216 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 1: And that's exactly what you see with their team right now. 217 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 1: That's exactly what you saw last weekend their loss to 218 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 1: the Commanders. What's going on with New England? Rick, that's 219 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 1: the big picture question I have for you. 220 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, No, I think that's a pretty dog one good analysis. 221 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 2: I make two things that just stand out to me, 222 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 2: and all the negatives that you point out are there, 223 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 2: I think off the top of my head. You know. 224 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:30,320 Speaker 2: The first one is they're thirty first in scoring and 225 00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 2: they're twenty sixth in points given up. You know, the 226 00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 2: record is two and seven. And here's there's something that's 227 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 2: just staggering, is you have a ninety seven point scoring differential. 228 00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 2: I mean, and you have. And I've worked with him 229 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:49,280 Speaker 2: and I respect him, and I can give you what 230 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:51,920 Speaker 2: he's going to do in this game because I know 231 00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:56,599 Speaker 2: his style like a book. But our Hall of Fame's 232 00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:59,319 Speaker 2: and he's a first ballot Hall of Fame coach in 233 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 2: the Hall of Fame, but he's actually in battled. I mean, 234 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:05,600 Speaker 2: some people say that Rabel is already changing the drapes 235 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 2: in there, you know, I mean, which is absolutely incredible 236 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:13,040 Speaker 2: what you think of the background, the Super Bowl wins 237 00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:16,280 Speaker 2: and all the things that he've had. But it might 238 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:19,800 Speaker 2: just in the big picture, in the very big picture. 239 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:23,200 Speaker 2: What I see, and I've seen it the last couple 240 00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:26,359 Speaker 2: of years kind of come, you know, kind of unfold. 241 00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 2: Is I think that the GM Belichick has failed the 242 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:37,319 Speaker 2: head coach lately. I think, you know, I don't think 243 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:39,720 Speaker 2: he's forgotten how to coach. And I think that's one 244 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:42,560 Speaker 2: of the reasons they'll be competitive. They'll be much more 245 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,920 Speaker 2: competitive than the Panthers, even though they're not much better, 246 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 2: but they'll be They'll be much better because they'll be 247 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:52,600 Speaker 2: much more competitive with volume and things like that. And 248 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 2: it won't be easy. It won't be like lastly. But 249 00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,319 Speaker 2: what I see there is a team that is really 250 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:03,000 Speaker 2: dim in talent. I mean, you know, they've got a 251 00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:09,359 Speaker 2: quarterback who is herkie jerky. He's inconsistent, he's inconsistent physically 252 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:13,720 Speaker 2: and sometimes the irrational mentally. You know, they have no 253 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:17,920 Speaker 2: skill guys outside two two injuries really help us. Two 254 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 2: injuries have killed them, losing Born, who was their only 255 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:26,200 Speaker 2: legitimate outside the numbers receiver he's out for the season, 256 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:31,200 Speaker 2: and then losing having Judon on Ir who's their biggest 257 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 2: defensive impact player, who's a Colts killer. I mean, to 258 00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:38,320 Speaker 2: have those two guys out just takes a diminished roster, 259 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:41,680 Speaker 2: you know, and makes it worse. And so I think 260 00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:46,319 Speaker 2: really the lack of skill perimeter players, not guys inside 261 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:48,600 Speaker 2: the cylinder. I'll get into that. They've got good players 262 00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:52,800 Speaker 2: inside the cylinder, but nothing outside the cylinder. And then 263 00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:57,760 Speaker 2: they lack that game changing defender like Judon, and so 264 00:13:58,080 --> 00:13:59,640 Speaker 2: you know, when you look at them, like I said, 265 00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:03,720 Speaker 2: thirty first and scoring twenty second, twenty sixth and points 266 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:08,360 Speaker 2: giving up Jones is twenty fourth now in QBR as 267 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:11,880 Speaker 2: opposed to Minshew who's number eight. I mean, that's very 268 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:15,200 Speaker 2: a quiet statistic we never talk about. And then they're 269 00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:18,840 Speaker 2: minus five in the turnover ratio, they're way down, like 270 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 2: you say, in penalties they're number seventeen. So there has 271 00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:26,120 Speaker 2: been a lot of self implosion. But really and truly, 272 00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:28,440 Speaker 2: at the end of the day, just big picture wise, 273 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:31,600 Speaker 2: this is just not your father's Patriots. 274 00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 1: Just not oh no doubt about that. I mean, that's 275 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:36,200 Speaker 1: an understatement, right, there. I mean they lost to a 276 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:40,560 Speaker 1: commander's team last week at home after they traded two 277 00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:43,280 Speaker 1: of their best players. So let's roll out the blueprints 278 00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:46,160 Speaker 1: here for the Colts. Rick, Let's begin with the Patriots 279 00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 1: on offense and talk about what the Colts can do 280 00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 1: coming off their best defensive performance of the season with 281 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 1: those three takeaways, two of them pick six is by 282 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:58,520 Speaker 1: Kenny Moore. So New England they're putting up only fifteen 283 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:02,120 Speaker 1: points per game's third first in the NFL. They've only 284 00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:05,800 Speaker 1: been over twenty points one time all season, and last 285 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:08,840 Speaker 1: week against Washington, eight of the eleven New England drives 286 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:12,920 Speaker 1: were five plays or less, so a lot of stagnation there. 287 00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:16,160 Speaker 1: And Mac Jones, He's tied for the most interceptions in 288 00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:19,640 Speaker 1: the NFL with nine, he only has ten touchdown passes 289 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:22,920 Speaker 1: and his completion percentage of sixty four point eight that 290 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:26,680 Speaker 1: ranks twenty first in the NFL. Wide receiver to Mario 291 00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:29,720 Speaker 1: Douglas and tight end Hunter Henry are the leading pass catchers, 292 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:32,520 Speaker 1: but neither Guy Rick is over three hundred yards. The 293 00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:36,000 Speaker 1: run game, it's centered around Ramandre Stevenson. He's got three 294 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:39,840 Speaker 1: hundred and ninety four yards on the ground, including sixty 295 00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 1: four yard touchdown run against the Commanders last Sunday. They 296 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:46,560 Speaker 1: also have veteran Ezekiel Elliott in a complimentary role as well, 297 00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:50,120 Speaker 1: coming over from the Cowboys. But Rick, it just seems like, 298 00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:52,360 Speaker 1: like you said, in the big picture, just seems like 299 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:55,280 Speaker 1: this Patriots offense is broken. You always start with how 300 00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 1: a team can beat you. So with that in mind, Rick, 301 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:01,600 Speaker 1: how can the Patriots be dangerous to the. 302 00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:03,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, great segue for me, because that's exactly how I 303 00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 2: look at it. I look at it as Okay, we 304 00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:10,960 Speaker 2: know and we've already pointed out where they're not very good. Now, 305 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:14,240 Speaker 2: how can they beat you? Okay, how can they beat you? 306 00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 2: First of all, despite the numbers, Bill O'Brien is a 307 00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 2: big upgrade at offensive coordinator for what they play now 308 00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:25,240 Speaker 2: that I think the I think the coaching carousel has 309 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:28,520 Speaker 2: hurt him in that sense, the lack of continuity. But 310 00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:32,480 Speaker 2: Bill will have a much better game plan than they've 311 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:36,440 Speaker 2: had before. I think when you look at him, you 312 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:38,720 Speaker 2: heard me talk about the cylinder. To me, When I 313 00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:42,240 Speaker 2: say the cylinder, that means they're really good. From numbers 314 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:45,640 Speaker 2: to numbers, they have they have enough talent from the 315 00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 2: inside that area of the field, the inside area of 316 00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:51,320 Speaker 2: the field to make it tough on you if they're 317 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:54,760 Speaker 2: having a good day. First of all, I think, you know, 318 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 2: when we talk about what could make them good, I 319 00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:00,880 Speaker 2: think you have to look at Stevenson and you have 320 00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 2: to look at zeke as on top of their game, 321 00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:08,919 Speaker 2: because they're still very good. They've just struggled from a 322 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:12,639 Speaker 2: not very good offensive line from people stacking the box 323 00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:16,800 Speaker 2: on them. But remember, now, Ezekiel Elliott is a lifetime 324 00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:21,080 Speaker 2: four point eight rusher. He's got eighty two touchdowns in 325 00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:24,760 Speaker 2: the NFL, and he has something like eighty five hundred 326 00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:29,480 Speaker 2: yards plus, so you don't want to underestimate him. And then, 327 00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:33,400 Speaker 2: in my opinion, Stevenson really is their lead guy now 328 00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:38,320 Speaker 2: and he's basically a four point four rusher totally. And 329 00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:40,879 Speaker 2: where he is very very good is out of the 330 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:44,520 Speaker 2: backfield catching the ball. Right now, he has twenty seven 331 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:48,640 Speaker 2: catches coming out and he has a ton of yak 332 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:51,560 Speaker 2: yardig I mean a ton. He's got like two hundred 333 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:55,200 Speaker 2: and nineteen yards. And if you remember last year's game, 334 00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:59,600 Speaker 2: which was really you know, despite our offense not moving 335 00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:02,520 Speaker 2: it at all all, our defense was playing pretty good 336 00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 2: and they got in the red zone. And what they 337 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 2: did was they got Stevenson on our backers one on 338 00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:09,960 Speaker 2: one and that's how they got in the end zone 339 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 2: with those options. So, you know, those are two guys 340 00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:16,480 Speaker 2: that I really respect. And you know, if we don't 341 00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:19,479 Speaker 2: shore up the run like we did from like like 342 00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:22,560 Speaker 2: we didn't last week, and he can get that running 343 00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:25,240 Speaker 2: game going because he'll copy it. He's gonna come right 344 00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:28,040 Speaker 2: after it if we don't do something about it. So, 345 00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:31,160 Speaker 2: I mean, I think they're very capable there. I think 346 00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 2: they're very capable of tight end. Now that's also an 347 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:37,360 Speaker 2: in the cylinder position. You know, if you put all 348 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:40,440 Speaker 2: three guys together, which I think you have to, including 349 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:43,720 Speaker 2: Pharaoh Brown, he's given him some pretty good snaps. But 350 00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:48,919 Speaker 2: if you put Henry Kazaki and Brown together, Matt, all 351 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:51,040 Speaker 2: of a sudden, you have fifty three catches. You know 352 00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:53,840 Speaker 2: you have when you put all three of those guys together. 353 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 2: Now that is a lot better number than one guy 354 00:18:56,640 --> 00:19:00,240 Speaker 2: in isolation, right, And so you know, when you look 355 00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:04,960 Speaker 2: at Stevenson, you look at Zeke inside, and then you 356 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:07,879 Speaker 2: look at those three tight ends, and guy Zaki really 357 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:10,359 Speaker 2: has speed. He's a guy that can they as a 358 00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 2: matter of fact, matter of fact, because they're so hurt 359 00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 2: in that wide out. They are playing twelve personnel, they're 360 00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:19,119 Speaker 2: playing two tight ends. They're not even in two minutes, 361 00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:22,160 Speaker 2: they're not in three wide receivers. So, you know, Gazeki 362 00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:24,639 Speaker 2: almost is kind of a I've always thought of him 363 00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:26,719 Speaker 2: as kind of a half breed player. He's half a 364 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:29,919 Speaker 2: tight end, half a wide out, but he can really 365 00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:33,120 Speaker 2: get down that seam. And Dan Henry is really good 366 00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:36,800 Speaker 2: possession guy. And actually Pharaoh's come in and played pretty 367 00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:40,520 Speaker 2: good for him, So running back tight end, don't underestimate 368 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:43,919 Speaker 2: that a bit. And then the kid that looks really 369 00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:47,439 Speaker 2: good and he and I think he's damn good. You know, 370 00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:49,160 Speaker 2: I didn't know much about him. He was a sixth 371 00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:52,400 Speaker 2: round draft pick out of Liberty, and that's the Douglas Kid. 372 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 2: The Douglas Kid is really coming on now. He doesn't 373 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 2: have a bunch of total catches, but he still is 374 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:02,399 Speaker 2: really and he has like twenty four and he didn't 375 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,439 Speaker 2: play a lot early because of the other guys, but 376 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:08,640 Speaker 2: since he's been in there now he's the true slot. 377 00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:12,840 Speaker 2: He's the gadget guy. He would be equivalent, I won't 378 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:16,560 Speaker 2: say equivalent, but he's very much like you know, like 379 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:20,040 Speaker 2: our downs. He's another kid with two hundred and nineteen 380 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 2: yards of yap, so you know, he's very dangerous with 381 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:26,040 Speaker 2: the ball in hand. So you know, when you look 382 00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 2: at you want to say, well, how can they beat you? Well, 383 00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:32,360 Speaker 2: they've got good talent in there, and the quarterback has 384 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:35,399 Speaker 2: his ups and downs. He is not like last year's 385 00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:38,440 Speaker 2: kid that is going to just get overwhelmed. Now. He's competitive, 386 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:41,960 Speaker 2: he's inconsistent. But if he's onn and he has a 387 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:45,040 Speaker 2: good day and you let him going, he's not going 388 00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:46,920 Speaker 2: to fold up his tent like they did last week. 389 00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:49,480 Speaker 2: I'll just guarantee you there. So you know where their 390 00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:54,600 Speaker 2: strength is offensively is in that cylinder with good enough 391 00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:59,959 Speaker 2: players to beat you. Now to me the blueprint, okay, 392 00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:03,880 Speaker 2: just just staying with that. The blueprint for our defense 393 00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:08,600 Speaker 2: on victory is number one. You got to control Elliott 394 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:11,680 Speaker 2: and Stevenson. We can't. You know, like I said, neither 395 00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:14,560 Speaker 2: guy has big numbers in twenty three. But you have 396 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 2: to evaluate the sum of their parts because they're damn good. 397 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:21,560 Speaker 2: They're just playing on a team that isn't very efficient 398 00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:24,080 Speaker 2: and their numbers show it. But I talked to you 399 00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:27,719 Speaker 2: already about that. Elliott has you know, great career numbers, 400 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:31,800 Speaker 2: seventy two touchdowns. You know, he's a four point four. 401 00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:35,239 Speaker 2: Stevenson is a four point eight in terms of his 402 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:38,440 Speaker 2: three years in the league, and he's a big, high 403 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:43,120 Speaker 2: volume catcher, kind of an old school option guy. Two 404 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:47,480 Speaker 2: hundred and nineteen yards of yak. Both of them are slashers. 405 00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:50,840 Speaker 2: They can move the ball, they'll bang it with and 406 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:53,320 Speaker 2: he's going to run right at us like they did 407 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:56,120 Speaker 2: last week. He's going to see we're light and we're 408 00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:59,359 Speaker 2: not playing physical in there with our injury, so he's 409 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:03,159 Speaker 2: calm and right us and again, so I think the 410 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:06,159 Speaker 2: number one thing you got to do is shore up 411 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:09,680 Speaker 2: that running game from last week and not allow those 412 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:13,040 Speaker 2: two guys to get going. And then also think, you know, 413 00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:16,280 Speaker 2: there's certain situations in third down where you've got to 414 00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:20,360 Speaker 2: be really careful with your linebackers on Stevenson and from 415 00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:23,440 Speaker 2: a pass standpoint number two, and this kind of goes 416 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:26,520 Speaker 2: with what I was talking about before. You really have 417 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:29,679 Speaker 2: to handle the tight ends in the passing game. They 418 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:33,000 Speaker 2: have fifty three combined catches, you know, and they're all 419 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:36,000 Speaker 2: a little bit different. Henry is really kind of their 420 00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 2: option route runner. He and Stevenson when like it's third 421 00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:43,359 Speaker 2: and five, the money, the money down, they're guys that 422 00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:47,040 Speaker 2: get the ball. They run those little two options. Very 423 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:51,440 Speaker 2: good Guyazaki is more of a combination tight end wide out. 424 00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:54,960 Speaker 2: He'll be split a lot in the slot and he 425 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 2: can't get downfield. You know, we've played against him at 426 00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:01,120 Speaker 2: Miami a year ago, two years years ago. I mean, 427 00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:03,639 Speaker 2: he is a guy that can climb on you. And 428 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:06,800 Speaker 2: as I said, just remember they hit a big seam 429 00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 2: on us last year when the game was tight in 430 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:12,439 Speaker 2: twenty two, so you know they know how to handle it. 431 00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:16,560 Speaker 2: And again, always study history because Belichick will always come 432 00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:21,560 Speaker 2: back to history against you. Number three. You've got to 433 00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:25,000 Speaker 2: choke off Douglas and I think you got to hug him. 434 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:27,880 Speaker 2: You got to hug him tight. Don't let him get 435 00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:31,879 Speaker 2: any air. He's really good with the ball in his hand. 436 00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:35,840 Speaker 2: He's at eleven five per and one hundred and thirty 437 00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:39,680 Speaker 2: four yards of yak okay. Now he is really beginning 438 00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:44,639 Speaker 2: to be featured now because once they lost Born, you know, 439 00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 2: and then the other kid was the other guy. Parker 440 00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:53,840 Speaker 2: has been concussed. So you know, with those guys out 441 00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 2: and Smith Schuster, you know has been banged up. I mean, 442 00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:01,520 Speaker 2: this kid has become the guy and he's mostly in 443 00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:04,760 Speaker 2: there in the slot. Okay, So again I think you 444 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:10,120 Speaker 2: have to understand him schematically, but I think also continue 445 00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:14,320 Speaker 2: to play balanced coverages. Don't be in that hawk three 446 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:18,000 Speaker 2: all day long. Please don't do that, because as I 447 00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:21,919 Speaker 2: said to you, Belichick's doesn't only see it. Miss Sherry 448 00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:23,960 Speaker 2: can see it, to be honest with you. So but 449 00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:29,200 Speaker 2: schematically it still comes down passing game wise to Stevenson, 450 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:32,480 Speaker 2: the tight ends in Douglas. All right, we got to 451 00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:35,760 Speaker 2: gain the advantage and rush their offensive line. This is 452 00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:40,959 Speaker 2: another area that they're really really struggling. You know, they've 453 00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:43,920 Speaker 2: given up. They haven't given up a bunch of sacks, 454 00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:47,560 Speaker 2: but they've given up a bunch of hits. They force 455 00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:51,680 Speaker 2: the action when they get behind. I think I think 456 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 2: they really struggle Brown, you know who's up there. He 457 00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:59,040 Speaker 2: was once the top guy, but he's really struggling with 458 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:03,320 Speaker 2: guys that'll start up and come under him. McDermott filled 459 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:05,879 Speaker 2: in for him last week when he was hurt, and 460 00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:10,080 Speaker 2: he struggles I think on Waino on the other side, 461 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 2: he can't handle speed on Quitty's side, speed and athleticism, 462 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:17,800 Speaker 2: and I think the center Andrews, I think you can 463 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:20,359 Speaker 2: bowl him all day. I think you can get him, 464 00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:22,480 Speaker 2: and that has really hurt him. You get a guy 465 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:26,080 Speaker 2: on him and just force him into Jones's lap and 466 00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:29,479 Speaker 2: he's got nowhere to see, no place to go. All right, 467 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 2: then number five, you got to force Jones into the 468 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:35,920 Speaker 2: bad game. You got to force him into the bad game. 469 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:39,880 Speaker 2: As you mentioned it, he's got ten touchdowns and nine interceptions. 470 00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:42,760 Speaker 2: That kind of kind of defines who he is. You know, 471 00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:46,480 Speaker 2: he's he's up and down, and you know he will 472 00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:50,399 Speaker 2: play erratically, but he can play good. He is he 473 00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:54,359 Speaker 2: is he does have enough ability to beat you on 474 00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:58,000 Speaker 2: one Sunday. So again we need really tight coverage with 475 00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:02,280 Speaker 2: this team. They have Harry, very little skill outside the 476 00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:06,040 Speaker 2: cylinder and very little speed out there. So choke them off. 477 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:09,240 Speaker 2: You can rush them, you can blitz them. You can 478 00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 2: force him into the bad and erratic play. And when 479 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:16,399 Speaker 2: he's playing erradically, I think he has an emotional I 480 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:20,040 Speaker 2: think he becomes an emotional downer to their team. Again, 481 00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:23,480 Speaker 2: you know number twenty four in QBR and their number 482 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:27,240 Speaker 2: twenty fourth in giveaways. The ten to nine ratio says 483 00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:29,320 Speaker 2: it all. I guess at the end of the day, 484 00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:33,560 Speaker 2: when what you're playing, Matt is you're playing a bunch. 485 00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:38,080 Speaker 2: You're paying a busload of inside players. I mean, it's 486 00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:40,840 Speaker 2: really unique. But I would say this though, that that 487 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:45,040 Speaker 2: busload of inside players is potentially much better than the panther. 488 00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:48,280 Speaker 1: That's Rick Venturi right there. That's inside football. That's the 489 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:50,880 Speaker 1: first blueprint. Let's go down to the second blueprint. Let's 490 00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:54,520 Speaker 1: shift over to the Patriots on defense, Rick, that unit 491 00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:58,080 Speaker 1: is struggling, and they are struggling in the most important category, 492 00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:02,000 Speaker 1: giving up twenty five three points per game. That ranks 493 00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:04,800 Speaker 1: twenty six in the NFL. They've only held two teams 494 00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:08,399 Speaker 1: to under twenty all season long. But they're pretty formidable 495 00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:10,680 Speaker 1: against the run. That is the strength of their team. 496 00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:13,480 Speaker 1: Pretty good against the rush, pretty good in the red zone, 497 00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:16,800 Speaker 1: ranking the top five in both categories against the run. 498 00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:19,360 Speaker 1: They ranked number two in yards per rush at three 499 00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:22,840 Speaker 1: point four. In fact, they've held six teams to under 500 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:25,440 Speaker 1: four yards to carry on the season, and they've only 501 00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:29,359 Speaker 1: allowed one one hundred yard rusher to this point. And 502 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:32,160 Speaker 1: some of their best players, as you said, they are 503 00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:36,560 Speaker 1: on IR They've got Marcus Jones on the sidelines, Christian Gonzales, 504 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:40,200 Speaker 1: a rookie, and then Matthew Judon also influx a little 505 00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:42,639 Speaker 1: bit in the secondary. Some weird stuff going on, and 506 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:46,800 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick won't give you a clear explanation with what's 507 00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:49,960 Speaker 1: going on with j. C. Jackson and Jonathan Jones at corner. 508 00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:53,040 Speaker 1: They're in the doghouse a little bit with the coaching staff. 509 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:56,320 Speaker 1: No clear again explanation on what's going on there, and 510 00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:59,360 Speaker 1: it's weird. Neither guy started last week, but they both 511 00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:01,480 Speaker 1: came in the middle of the game, but when they 512 00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:03,760 Speaker 1: came in, they were already down ten to nothing. So 513 00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:06,840 Speaker 1: help us kind of make sense of this Patriots defense, Rick, 514 00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 1: They're kind of confusing at this point. And as you 515 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:12,600 Speaker 1: said too off the air, they play a lot of guys, 516 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:16,120 Speaker 1: so personnel, it's it's hard to identify just exactly who 517 00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:18,920 Speaker 1: they are and what they are considering the amount of 518 00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:21,120 Speaker 1: bodies that you see throughout the course of a game. 519 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:25,280 Speaker 2: That's right, That's exactly right, Matt. They are very confusing 520 00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:28,679 Speaker 2: when you start to watch them, and luckily for me, 521 00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:31,440 Speaker 2: we've played them so many times recently that a lot 522 00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:34,159 Speaker 2: of things come back to me quickly, and having to 523 00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:37,800 Speaker 2: work with me things are instinctive with me. You know, 524 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:42,680 Speaker 2: they they're confusing because they do use a ton of groupings, 525 00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:47,240 Speaker 2: and if you're trying to categorize them by groupings, you'll 526 00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:50,760 Speaker 2: you'll get off track because you'll you'll get it's like 527 00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:54,480 Speaker 2: an illusion of a ton of defense when it really 528 00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:59,480 Speaker 2: is he's using guys in specific situations because he thinks 529 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:02,920 Speaker 2: they're better. For instance, when we were in Cleveland together, 530 00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:07,000 Speaker 2: Mike Calwell, who is the defensive coordinator of the Jacksonville Jaguars, 531 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:11,160 Speaker 2: was our second and third down Will. He wasn't ever 532 00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 2: our first down will. You got what I'm saying, But 533 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:17,240 Speaker 2: he was our second down and third down Will. So 534 00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:21,320 Speaker 2: he just went in the game without substitutions. So there's 535 00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:24,400 Speaker 2: a lot of that that doesn't really change the concept. 536 00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:26,880 Speaker 2: He just feels like he's putting a little bit better 537 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:30,480 Speaker 2: player in that spot for that situation, And I think 538 00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:35,160 Speaker 2: you have to simplify it for yourself and your players. Now. 539 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:38,760 Speaker 2: The other thing is be careful with what you watch 540 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:41,400 Speaker 2: and what you don't watch, because he is going to 541 00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 2: be game specific for you and he's going to attack 542 00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:52,000 Speaker 2: your liabilities both in scheme and personnel. All right, Number one, 543 00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:54,720 Speaker 2: you know this the number one thing I've been I've 544 00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:57,320 Speaker 2: sat in those Monday staff meetings when he comes in 545 00:29:57,360 --> 00:30:00,640 Speaker 2: with that yellow pad with five hundred t twenty seven 546 00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:04,160 Speaker 2: notes in red pen okay, and when he comes in there, 547 00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:07,760 Speaker 2: he is going to define for you on Monday who 548 00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:10,840 Speaker 2: you have to take away. He don't tell you on 549 00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:13,520 Speaker 2: Monday how to take him away, but he will have 550 00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:16,400 Speaker 2: the defensive staff there and he is going to say 551 00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:20,840 Speaker 2: to them, Jonathan Taylor and Moth do not beat us. 552 00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 2: Do you guys understand this? And he won't call us guys. 553 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:27,600 Speaker 2: He'll say do you guys understand this? And then he 554 00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:30,680 Speaker 2: will say and I don't want to have this discussion 555 00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:34,280 Speaker 2: on Sunday. So what you do is you go back 556 00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:37,560 Speaker 2: into your little man cave and when you start planning 557 00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:40,880 Speaker 2: every defense you put in there, you say, we got 558 00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:44,040 Speaker 2: to stop Jonathan Taylor in Moth. Okay, that's kind of 559 00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:46,400 Speaker 2: how it works to be in the big picture, but 560 00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:49,080 Speaker 2: it's really important to know that because you want to 561 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:52,600 Speaker 2: anticipate what you're going to see. Don't let all that 562 00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:56,840 Speaker 2: personnel grouping bother you, because again, those are illusions. Those 563 00:30:56,880 --> 00:31:00,520 Speaker 2: are just more of his personnel than it is necessarily 564 00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:04,000 Speaker 2: to get after you. Okay, you gotta attack what I 565 00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:08,880 Speaker 2: call concepts. Don't get mesmerized by groupings. Now what are 566 00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:13,080 Speaker 2: the big concepts? Well, first of all, he's gonna copy. 567 00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:15,400 Speaker 2: So you're gonna see a lot of the what I 568 00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:18,840 Speaker 2: call the Jaguar plan, which I mentioned earlier. You're gonna 569 00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:21,920 Speaker 2: see a lot of bear defense. And the way they 570 00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:26,000 Speaker 2: get to bear is Tave the linebacker number forty eight. 571 00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:29,840 Speaker 2: He walks up on the line and creates the five linemen. 572 00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:32,920 Speaker 2: If you know what I'm saying. He's basically the will backer, 573 00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:37,920 Speaker 2: and he will walk up. He's in there with Bentley normally, 574 00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:40,680 Speaker 2: if you're just in their regular defense, he walks up 575 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:44,440 Speaker 2: and becomes like a defensive end and in their bear defense. 576 00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:48,200 Speaker 2: So you're gonna see a lot of bear. You're also 577 00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:52,000 Speaker 2: going to see a ton of man demand coverage and 578 00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:56,160 Speaker 2: both press and off. And he's you know, and he'll 579 00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:59,240 Speaker 2: play you different. He'll get up, he'll study. He'll say, Okay, 580 00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:02,120 Speaker 2: we're gonna press Pittman because he doesn't have speed. We're 581 00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:04,480 Speaker 2: gonna stay off of Pierce, and we're gonna play a 582 00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:06,400 Speaker 2: man and a half to down. So that's how he 583 00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:09,120 Speaker 2: looks at it, and I guarantee you that's how he's 584 00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:12,600 Speaker 2: gonna play us, and that's the Jags way. And then 585 00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:16,320 Speaker 2: he's gonna say they really have trouble with blitzes, and 586 00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:19,240 Speaker 2: there's nobody blitzes more than he does. Now. He's doing 587 00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:23,720 Speaker 2: it now out of hunger because he's lost Judon, he's 588 00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:26,800 Speaker 2: lost that big rush element. It's very hard for him 589 00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:29,320 Speaker 2: to get there. So if you watched him last Sunday, 590 00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:32,080 Speaker 2: it just seemed like he was bringing the house every down. 591 00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:34,800 Speaker 2: And the guys you got to be really alert for 592 00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:39,960 Speaker 2: on the blitz is Dougger, who's the safety, Nickel Dime. 593 00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:43,240 Speaker 2: He's one of those guys, the crossover players for him, 594 00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:47,240 Speaker 2: that plays different every Sunday. And when they get in 595 00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:49,080 Speaker 2: the red zone, they're bringing the house. One of the 596 00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:52,240 Speaker 2: reasons they're so good. You mentioned it, I think that 597 00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:53,320 Speaker 2: what are they number five? 598 00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:53,920 Speaker 1: Number five? 599 00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:56,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, they're number five. There are two they're two versus 600 00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 2: the rush per and they're five in the red zone. 601 00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:01,880 Speaker 2: Those are the two highs and a lot of that 602 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:04,800 Speaker 2: Matt is zero bliszes. I mean, I'm not talking about 603 00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:08,520 Speaker 2: five man blesses. I'm talking about zero blisses. If the 604 00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:10,880 Speaker 2: game's on the line with Bill. If you're in the 605 00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:14,920 Speaker 2: red zone, if you've got a vulnerability, they are coming 606 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:18,040 Speaker 2: after you. And like I said, don't be all hung 607 00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:22,600 Speaker 2: up on the you know, basically on the number of 608 00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 2: people that he plays in a game or runs in 609 00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:29,240 Speaker 2: the game. Just be ready for those concepts, be ready 610 00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 2: for anything that has hurt you in the past. Guys 611 00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:37,120 Speaker 2: that I'm more concerned about, the guys I don't think 612 00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 2: you want to let beat you. I think Bentley is 613 00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:43,560 Speaker 2: a really good inside linebacker. I don't think there's any 614 00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:48,520 Speaker 2: question about Dougger is a really good all purpose player. 615 00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:53,240 Speaker 2: Reminds me a lot of Hamilton from Baltimore. You got 616 00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:56,560 Speaker 2: to keep him, I think, from beating you in that sense, 617 00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:01,160 Speaker 2: you know, I think I think Baron is a very 618 00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:05,200 Speaker 2: impactive guy inside, the kid from Alabama that was a 619 00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:08,040 Speaker 2: high draft pick two years ago. He is a guy 620 00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:10,840 Speaker 2: you have to be concerned with and kind of the 621 00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:14,239 Speaker 2: sneaky good guy that's been around a long time. It's 622 00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:18,200 Speaker 2: kind of a combination. In combination three, I think he'll 623 00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:21,320 Speaker 2: be on Nelson a lot. Is Wise. I think Wise 624 00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:24,520 Speaker 2: has twenty six and a half career sacks, but he's 625 00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:27,799 Speaker 2: just kind of a quiet guy. That's been at end 626 00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:30,279 Speaker 2: you know, and be you know, been there. But at 627 00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:34,080 Speaker 2: the end of the day, it's Douger, barrymore Wise and Bentley. 628 00:34:34,160 --> 00:34:37,160 Speaker 2: Those are really the key guys. You're right. They have 629 00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:40,880 Speaker 2: struggled at corner. They really have struggled at corner there, 630 00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:44,080 Speaker 2: there's no doubt about that. You know, they're twenty first 631 00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:46,799 Speaker 2: in the league in past and they're twenty eighth in 632 00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:49,680 Speaker 2: the league and getting after the quarterback. That's why that 633 00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:53,840 Speaker 2: tells me he's going to be bringing the house, you know, 634 00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:57,400 Speaker 2: to stop you. He's had trouble at corner, no question 635 00:34:57,480 --> 00:35:01,759 Speaker 2: about that. I'll get into that again. Their numbers tell 636 00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:05,240 Speaker 2: you what they are. This is something that I've always said, 637 00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:08,560 Speaker 2: you know, I've played against with him, played against him 638 00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:11,480 Speaker 2: a lot, and I always told my young coaches when 639 00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:15,279 Speaker 2: we got ready to play him, basically, he's going to 640 00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:19,759 Speaker 2: be team and game specific. So if you don't know 641 00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:24,200 Speaker 2: or you don't admit to your liabilities going in, all right, 642 00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:25,920 Speaker 2: you're going to find out what they are by the 643 00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:28,160 Speaker 2: end of the first quarter because he's going to attack right. 644 00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:32,080 Speaker 2: And sometimes and I mean neces sariously to be helpful here, 645 00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:35,160 Speaker 2: sometimes it's more important when you're getting ready to play 646 00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:40,520 Speaker 2: the Patriots to actually self south scout yourself and realistically 647 00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:45,120 Speaker 2: a value personnel and study history against you, you know, 648 00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:48,319 Speaker 2: more than really even the pat scouting report. And I'll 649 00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:51,960 Speaker 2: get into that when you struggle with something. You know. Again, 650 00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:55,919 Speaker 2: I just keep mentioning and noting the Jags plan. You're 651 00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:58,040 Speaker 2: going to see it that you're really going to see it. 652 00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:01,719 Speaker 2: So now in terms of the blueprint, in terms of 653 00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:07,160 Speaker 2: the blueprint for you know, basically our offense, even though 654 00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:12,839 Speaker 2: that number two and three point five rushing perse stands out, 655 00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:16,200 Speaker 2: I just don't think that we can go into games 656 00:36:16,360 --> 00:36:21,000 Speaker 2: with our personnel and what our makeup is without running 657 00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:24,400 Speaker 2: the football. I just don't. I mean, I'd like to say, okay, 658 00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:26,280 Speaker 2: we'll you know, we have you know, we got Danny 659 00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:29,439 Speaker 2: Marino and and Clayton and Duper and all those guys, 660 00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:31,320 Speaker 2: so we'll just like he did to bear this, spread 661 00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:32,879 Speaker 2: them out and throw it all over the park. Well 662 00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:35,520 Speaker 2: that's not us. So what we have to do a 663 00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:40,320 Speaker 2: better job of is really finding ways to keep Jonathan 664 00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:45,440 Speaker 2: alive off tackle and to the outside. Again, expect that 665 00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:48,400 Speaker 2: bear all day. Now we're there old school, and I 666 00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:50,719 Speaker 2: remember him getting on me all the time. If we 667 00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:53,840 Speaker 2: didn't do it is they won't give you necessary they 668 00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:56,160 Speaker 2: won't show you a single high. They'll give you a 669 00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:58,759 Speaker 2: two shell. You'll see it all day when you when 670 00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:01,799 Speaker 2: you're doing the game. And then they'll screw down to three. 671 00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:04,319 Speaker 2: They'll screw down to three deep, or they'll screw to eight. 672 00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:06,719 Speaker 2: They'll move around. We used to call it screwing down 673 00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:09,360 Speaker 2: where you just you're up there, but it's like a screw. 674 00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:11,719 Speaker 2: You come right down in there and you give him 675 00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:16,440 Speaker 2: a different look. He's really insistent on concealment. But you know, 676 00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:21,480 Speaker 2: make them prove it, absolutely, make them prove it. You know, 677 00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:24,360 Speaker 2: they have so many guys to me that play in games, 678 00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:27,200 Speaker 2: and I think that's why I think. I think you 679 00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:29,279 Speaker 2: can get off tackle and you can get to the 680 00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:32,560 Speaker 2: outside with them, you know, and get Jonathan the ball 681 00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:35,360 Speaker 2: and you know, again, make screens. You saw what a 682 00:37:35,400 --> 00:37:37,640 Speaker 2: screen did? I mean, what's the difference if he catches 683 00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:40,760 Speaker 2: a screen or a toss sweep? It was a touchdown Sunday, 684 00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:43,320 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, so again it's more about touches 685 00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:47,400 Speaker 2: with Jonathan than pure plays. I think number two, you 686 00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:52,080 Speaker 2: talked about the corner instability, and again he'll start one guy. 687 00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:55,239 Speaker 2: He'll think that he'll he'll think the matchup the best 688 00:37:55,239 --> 00:37:57,279 Speaker 2: guy on the team versus Pittman, maybe a guy that 689 00:37:57,320 --> 00:37:59,760 Speaker 2: didn't play for four weeks. I mean that stuff. 690 00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:02,560 Speaker 1: Well speak speaking of that. Not to cut you off here, Rick, 691 00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:04,959 Speaker 1: but we do have some some breaking news in real 692 00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:08,560 Speaker 1: time as we sit here and tape this podcast the 693 00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:12,000 Speaker 1: NFL network. Rick is reporting right now actually that J. C. 694 00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:16,400 Speaker 1: Jackson not expected to travel uh with the Patriots to 695 00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:21,560 Speaker 1: Germany because of questions with his reliability. So we talked 696 00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:24,440 Speaker 1: about him being in the doghouse there uh. The the 697 00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:26,879 Speaker 1: decision is being made by the Patriots to have him 698 00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:30,080 Speaker 1: stay home, enjoy the bye week, and come back, hopefully 699 00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:32,640 Speaker 1: a better person and a more engaged player. 700 00:38:33,080 --> 00:38:36,200 Speaker 2: I'm telling you what, you you can finish my sentences. 701 00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:38,880 Speaker 2: We've worked together for so long. I love it because 702 00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:42,920 Speaker 2: my very next line was gonna be go after Jackson. 703 00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:43,319 Speaker 2: There you go. 704 00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:44,399 Speaker 1: Well, he ain't gonna be there. 705 00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:47,960 Speaker 2: He ain't gonna be there. But there's no question about it. 706 00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:50,440 Speaker 2: You you know, in order for Bill to do what 707 00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:53,400 Speaker 2: he's doing, what he's saying to you is I'm gonna 708 00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:57,400 Speaker 2: and this is where he thinks extreme more than most people. 709 00:38:57,440 --> 00:38:59,520 Speaker 2: People will always say, well, we got to stop Taylor. 710 00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:02,920 Speaker 2: They don't necessarily go to extremes to do it. They'll 711 00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:05,480 Speaker 2: just talk about it. He will go to extremes, and 712 00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:07,880 Speaker 2: so in order to stop Taylor, what he's going to 713 00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:09,839 Speaker 2: do is he's going to say, they can't beat us 714 00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:13,480 Speaker 2: with their outside receivers, so we're gonna play man and 715 00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:17,800 Speaker 2: stop them. So again, get after him. I think they'll 716 00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:21,520 Speaker 2: press us a lot, so you don't have our bunches 717 00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:25,120 Speaker 2: and stacks. Let's get some stacks for Pittman, because Pittman 718 00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:27,960 Speaker 2: is good on catching rudd and stuff. If you can 719 00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:31,840 Speaker 2: get him free access quick. I don't know how healthy 720 00:39:31,880 --> 00:39:34,520 Speaker 2: the downs is going to be, but rubs to him 721 00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:37,720 Speaker 2: and runaway routes across the middle are really really good. 722 00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:40,879 Speaker 2: I think we have to think because I know we're 723 00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:43,040 Speaker 2: gonna get a bunch of blitz We're gonna get a 724 00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:45,640 Speaker 2: lot of bunch of Manda Man. We've got to think 725 00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:49,239 Speaker 2: about big plays downfield. I think if we don't, if 726 00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:52,120 Speaker 2: we don't get plays downfield, you know, I think we'll 727 00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:56,120 Speaker 2: get blitzed. I just I think we'll really struggle. I 728 00:39:56,239 --> 00:39:59,640 Speaker 2: also think that you can go underneath on first down, 729 00:39:59,719 --> 00:40:02,839 Speaker 2: because again, all the different guys in the game, all 730 00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:05,720 Speaker 2: the guys dropping from spots. I talk about this all week, 731 00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:08,800 Speaker 2: and because of the Bear, we're seeing it all the time. 732 00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:12,720 Speaker 2: A lot of poor underneath coverage because guys are dropping 733 00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:17,160 Speaker 2: from those outside positions and really they're primarily in the 734 00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:20,360 Speaker 2: game to be rushers. They're not really cover guys, and 735 00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:23,239 Speaker 2: so there's gonna be holes in those zones and there's 736 00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:26,440 Speaker 2: gonna be areas to run away from that man coverage 737 00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:29,120 Speaker 2: because that's you got to be confronted with both two 738 00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:32,879 Speaker 2: and with one. So you know, again, let's get free 739 00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:35,440 Speaker 2: excess for Pittman, and I think to do that, you've 740 00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:38,480 Speaker 2: got to give him some stacks and bunches, and you know, 741 00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:40,600 Speaker 2: then you still got to take your shots. Let's go 742 00:40:40,680 --> 00:40:43,560 Speaker 2: over the top pierces coming a little bit and then 743 00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:47,120 Speaker 2: over routes to grantson and downs. All right, number four, 744 00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:50,879 Speaker 2: I think you know, I don't now, I will say this, 745 00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:53,960 Speaker 2: And he's been banged up, so he hasn't played a lot, 746 00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:57,719 Speaker 2: but ouce now, he really did a good job on 747 00:40:57,840 --> 00:41:00,640 Speaker 2: Ryman when Ryman was a rookie. What they did last 748 00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:05,839 Speaker 2: year against US is his game specific plan defensively was 749 00:41:05,880 --> 00:41:09,799 Speaker 2: to stunt. Remember, Pryor was playing right guard and we 750 00:41:09,960 --> 00:41:13,160 Speaker 2: just had no continuity in that right side last year. 751 00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:15,919 Speaker 2: So he ran every stunt known to man, and every 752 00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:18,680 Speaker 2: one of them was successful. I mean he packed him 753 00:41:19,040 --> 00:41:21,959 Speaker 2: and then he kept putting fresh guys on Ryman, who 754 00:41:22,200 --> 00:41:24,840 Speaker 2: was a rookie then and wasn't ready. Now Ryman is 755 00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:28,960 Speaker 2: a totally different player today. I think he's a very 756 00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:33,719 Speaker 2: good player. But Uce did have some good rushes against him, 757 00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:36,560 Speaker 2: so that all those things will always come back. That's 758 00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:40,200 Speaker 2: why I mentioned him, and those inside stunts will come back. 759 00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:43,200 Speaker 2: But the two guys inside that I think are their 760 00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:47,960 Speaker 2: best players. Now you know their best rushers, you know, 761 00:41:48,040 --> 00:41:51,840 Speaker 2: because of the loss of Judaan. One is Barrymore. He 762 00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:54,120 Speaker 2: has seven career sacks, but he's a young kid and 763 00:41:54,280 --> 00:41:57,600 Speaker 2: he is disruptive. And again and again I say don't 764 00:41:57,600 --> 00:42:01,319 Speaker 2: sleep on Wise, particularly when he moved inside and then 765 00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:04,040 Speaker 2: number five. I think this is gonna be so critical. 766 00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:06,480 Speaker 2: I just see it. You know, they can't get to 767 00:42:06,520 --> 00:42:09,399 Speaker 2: the passer with their normal guy, and they just kept 768 00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:12,839 Speaker 2: bringing it. Last week against Washington, they just kept bringing it, 769 00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:15,480 Speaker 2: and you got to be able to handle the bear blitzes. 770 00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:19,920 Speaker 2: And the guys that are gonna blitz. You know, the 771 00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:22,839 Speaker 2: guys that are gonna blitz are gonna be Bentley from 772 00:42:22,840 --> 00:42:25,960 Speaker 2: the inside and dug Her from the outside. I mean, 773 00:42:26,040 --> 00:42:28,720 Speaker 2: that's their two money guys when it comes to blitz, 774 00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:31,680 Speaker 2: and they're gonna mug and they're gonna come off that edge. 775 00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:35,600 Speaker 2: They've looked at every tape on you. They saw Hamilton 776 00:42:35,680 --> 00:42:39,040 Speaker 2: against Baltimore, and they're gonna try to repeat that with Dougger. 777 00:42:39,120 --> 00:42:41,399 Speaker 2: I'm just towing you right off the bat and when 778 00:42:41,440 --> 00:42:44,600 Speaker 2: you get down close, you cross into that orange red zone, 779 00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:47,880 Speaker 2: they're coming with everybody. It's gonna be a zero blitz. 780 00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:50,839 Speaker 2: Now that's hit or miss. And this is why I 781 00:42:50,880 --> 00:42:54,480 Speaker 2: say we got to think protection and we got to 782 00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:58,440 Speaker 2: think getting the big play downfield, because basically, if you 783 00:42:58,520 --> 00:43:01,839 Speaker 2: blitz ten times, then I only have to hit three 784 00:43:01,880 --> 00:43:03,839 Speaker 2: of them now to score twenty one if you follow 785 00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:06,239 Speaker 2: what I'm saying. So you know, and this is why 786 00:43:06,280 --> 00:43:09,719 Speaker 2: I want to tell our offense also, they're gonna make 787 00:43:09,760 --> 00:43:11,560 Speaker 2: some plays on you every once in a while with 788 00:43:11,640 --> 00:43:14,520 Speaker 2: that kind of aggressive style. But at the same time, 789 00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:17,000 Speaker 2: you've got to hang in there and hang in there, 790 00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:19,160 Speaker 2: and you've got to get the big plays on them, 791 00:43:19,239 --> 00:43:22,520 Speaker 2: you have to scorch them, and particularly in that red 792 00:43:22,600 --> 00:43:26,120 Speaker 2: zone because I guarantee you that's about ninety percent blitz. 793 00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:29,759 Speaker 2: And I just put this note to you, you know, 794 00:43:30,040 --> 00:43:32,759 Speaker 2: I said, you know, since we're playing in Europe and 795 00:43:32,840 --> 00:43:38,480 Speaker 2: not Foxborough, I think quinck tempo would be good against them, Okay, 796 00:43:38,520 --> 00:43:42,560 Speaker 2: I really do, because what quick tempo does is it 797 00:43:42,680 --> 00:43:46,799 Speaker 2: keeps him out of all those specialized defenses, okay, and 798 00:43:46,840 --> 00:43:49,040 Speaker 2: that stuff kind of makes them go. I don't think 799 00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:52,319 Speaker 2: it's as complicated as it looks, to be honest with you, 800 00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:55,400 Speaker 2: after I've studied it over the years. But what it 801 00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:58,440 Speaker 2: does is it gives him some personnel advantages at times. 802 00:43:58,520 --> 00:44:01,839 Speaker 2: So I think you could go some quick tempo there 803 00:44:02,239 --> 00:44:05,239 Speaker 2: and kind of disrupt them in that regard. But those 804 00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:08,200 Speaker 2: those are the keys, you know. Those those are the 805 00:44:08,239 --> 00:44:10,279 Speaker 2: blueprints on both sides, all right. 806 00:44:10,360 --> 00:44:13,400 Speaker 1: Rick Venturry rides there with the blueprints to beat the 807 00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:16,279 Speaker 1: Patriots Colts trying to get to five and five on 808 00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:20,480 Speaker 1: the season before the bye week, and from a logistical standpoint, 809 00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:22,520 Speaker 1: both teams are going to be heading for Germany on 810 00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:25,440 Speaker 1: Thursday evening, taking the Red Eye across the country, or 811 00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:28,240 Speaker 1: I should say in this case across the Atlantic Ocean 812 00:44:28,880 --> 00:44:32,320 Speaker 1: and the Colts and Patriots rivalry with both teams missing 813 00:44:32,320 --> 00:44:34,960 Speaker 1: the playoffs last year, Rick, the rivalry is kind of 814 00:44:34,960 --> 00:44:37,040 Speaker 1: cooled off a little bit. But you know, the Colts 815 00:44:37,080 --> 00:44:39,040 Speaker 1: they need this game badly, trying to get to five 816 00:44:39,160 --> 00:44:42,160 Speaker 1: hundred before the bye week. And you know, despite the 817 00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:45,080 Speaker 1: Patriots sitting there at you know, poor record two and seven, 818 00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:47,759 Speaker 1: they still have Bill Belichick, like you said, all the 819 00:44:47,800 --> 00:44:49,719 Speaker 1: things that he can do, all the things that he 820 00:44:49,760 --> 00:44:52,320 Speaker 1: can scheme up. He ranks second all time and wins 821 00:44:52,760 --> 00:44:55,040 Speaker 1: in NFL history. Like you said, he can make you 822 00:44:55,080 --> 00:44:57,759 Speaker 1: play left handed, which is a reason to be very 823 00:44:57,800 --> 00:44:59,959 Speaker 1: prepared for this game to do all that self scale. 824 00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:02,960 Speaker 1: And even though it's not a primetime game, Rick, it's 825 00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:07,560 Speaker 1: still a standalone NFL window in Germany. So you're gonna 826 00:45:07,600 --> 00:45:10,560 Speaker 1: have a lot of eyeballs on this game before week ten. 827 00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:12,960 Speaker 1: The Colts have a chance here, Rick, is my point 828 00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:15,240 Speaker 1: to make a statement in front of a lot of people, 829 00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:18,600 Speaker 1: dismantling an inferior team before you get a week off. 830 00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:21,120 Speaker 2: Oh, there's no doubt about it. That Sunday morning game 831 00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:24,920 Speaker 2: has become huge. I saw where the Kansas City TV 832 00:45:25,080 --> 00:45:28,920 Speaker 2: audience last week, and that game started at eight thirty 833 00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:33,680 Speaker 2: had a ninety four share. That's the highest share of 834 00:45:33,719 --> 00:45:36,439 Speaker 2: any event in history, to be honest with you, Now, 835 00:45:36,760 --> 00:45:39,879 Speaker 2: obviously it was Kansas City. But don't get You're exactly right. 836 00:45:39,880 --> 00:45:41,959 Speaker 2: They're gonna be a lot of eyes on it. There's 837 00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:44,640 Speaker 2: no doubt, you know. In the end, I've said it 838 00:45:44,680 --> 00:45:46,759 Speaker 2: all along, and I think it's good to keep it 839 00:45:46,760 --> 00:45:50,520 Speaker 2: in perspective. Not your father's Patriots, nothing to be in awe. 840 00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:54,040 Speaker 2: They're two and seven. I always say this, do not 841 00:45:54,280 --> 00:45:57,400 Speaker 2: play the myths of the past. Brady's not coming in 842 00:45:57,400 --> 00:46:01,440 Speaker 2: the stadium. McGinnis not coming in there, Randy Moss not 843 00:46:01,600 --> 00:46:04,239 Speaker 2: coming in there. Those guys aren't coming in the guy 844 00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:09,080 Speaker 2: you play the men that are there today. Be prepared. Now, 845 00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:11,279 Speaker 2: how do you prepare? First of all, you fix your 846 00:46:11,320 --> 00:46:17,080 Speaker 2: issues personnel and schematically, and then be adaptable within the game. 847 00:46:17,640 --> 00:46:21,760 Speaker 2: His plan for you will unfold really early. You're gonna 848 00:46:21,840 --> 00:46:25,040 Speaker 2: know where the attack basically is and how they're going 849 00:46:25,120 --> 00:46:26,640 Speaker 2: to do it, you know, by the end of the 850 00:46:26,680 --> 00:46:30,480 Speaker 2: first quarter. Again, I said this earlier because I think 851 00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:33,879 Speaker 2: they're going to play a reckless style on defense. You know, 852 00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:37,600 Speaker 2: it's not always going to be about winning every battle. 853 00:46:37,960 --> 00:46:40,120 Speaker 2: It's going to be winning the war at the end. 854 00:46:40,239 --> 00:46:44,799 Speaker 2: Just keep plugging, overcome any adversity and in the end 855 00:46:44,880 --> 00:46:47,120 Speaker 2: it's gonna come down. I think to get in big 856 00:46:47,160 --> 00:46:50,800 Speaker 2: plays on both sides of the ball. I think Frankfurt 857 00:46:50,840 --> 00:46:54,080 Speaker 2: will be a slight advantage to them because of their visibility, 858 00:46:54,320 --> 00:46:57,600 Speaker 2: but it ain't Foxborough. I think Europe works to the 859 00:46:57,680 --> 00:47:00,959 Speaker 2: Colt's advantage. Things I talked about out in the game plan. 860 00:47:01,160 --> 00:47:04,120 Speaker 2: I think they'll be there now. They're going to be 861 00:47:04,120 --> 00:47:07,319 Speaker 2: better prepared than the Panthers, and they're going because of 862 00:47:07,360 --> 00:47:11,440 Speaker 2: their game plan and their volume, but they're not really, 863 00:47:11,880 --> 00:47:15,360 Speaker 2: you know, talent wise, that much better. And the reason 864 00:47:15,400 --> 00:47:18,000 Speaker 2: I say that is it's really important for us to understand, 865 00:47:18,560 --> 00:47:21,279 Speaker 2: you know, no distractions. It doesn't matter if we played 866 00:47:21,280 --> 00:47:25,799 Speaker 2: this game in a parking lot. Frankfurd Australia. We are 867 00:47:25,840 --> 00:47:28,839 Speaker 2: the better team. And if we bring our a game 868 00:47:28,880 --> 00:47:33,160 Speaker 2: across the Atlantic, we're gonna come back even and the 869 00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:37,600 Speaker 2: twenty three seasons totally in our hands. We owe these 870 00:47:37,640 --> 00:47:41,160 Speaker 2: guys one take no prisoners, and when you look after 871 00:47:41,239 --> 00:47:43,880 Speaker 2: the bye, this game is so big because if we 872 00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:48,040 Speaker 2: come back five and five, other than Cincinnati in the 873 00:47:48,080 --> 00:47:51,919 Speaker 2: final seven. Who really are you afraid of? No One? 874 00:47:52,239 --> 00:47:55,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, nobody, nobody, even the Bengals are incredibly beatable And 875 00:47:56,239 --> 00:47:58,480 Speaker 1: to your point, everything's still on the table for the 876 00:47:58,480 --> 00:48:02,799 Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts.

We're gonna miss you over in 883 00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:18,080 Speaker 1: deutsch Land, but you're still gonna be on the call. 884 00:48:18,680 --> 00:48:20,279 Speaker 1: Rick's still gonna be on the call with us on 885 00:48:20,320 --> 00:48:24,520 Speaker 1: the pregame show, the postgame show, and throughout the game 886 00:48:24,600 --> 00:48:28,000 Speaker 1: halftime as well here in the studio in Indianapolis. So 887 00:48:28,040 --> 00:48:29,680 Speaker 1: we're gonna miss you, my man, but have a great 888 00:48:29,719 --> 00:48:31,919 Speaker 1: rest of the week and we look forward to talking 889 00:48:31,960 --> 00:48:36,000 Speaker 1: to you on Sunday for some early morning Indianapolis wise 890 00:48:36,280 --> 00:48:38,200 Speaker 1: football kegs and eggs with the Colts. 891 00:48:38,560 --> 00:48:41,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm really gonna miss it. But as some people 892 00:48:41,960 --> 00:48:44,439 Speaker 2: know or don't know, you know, I had to get 893 00:48:44,440 --> 00:48:46,960 Speaker 2: those ingestions in my back two weeks ago, and they're 894 00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:50,120 Speaker 2: just a little bit afraid of that nineteen hour total 895 00:48:50,280 --> 00:48:54,200 Speaker 2: challenge on the airplanes. So yeah, it's killing me because 896 00:48:54,560 --> 00:48:57,480 Speaker 2: you know, I just I really like this team and 897 00:48:57,520 --> 00:48:59,759 Speaker 2: I so love doing the job with you.
