Speaker 4: If they're not, what are we doing? Shut it all down?

25
00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:01,080
Speaker 4: That's a good basketball team that does to play the

26
00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:01,840
Speaker 4: next couple of games.

27
00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:04,960

30
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:12,520
Speaker 3: in the show. Gim call just to see if you'll

31
00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:14,920
Speaker 3: give us a hello before I you tips off tonight

32
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:17,480
Speaker 3: against Nebraska. But listen, a lot going on coming up

33
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:20,399
Speaker 3: on tonight's show. Right here, we're recapping everything, everything that

34
00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:22,880
Speaker 3: happened in the last week as far as the Colts goes.

35
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:24,959
Speaker 3: We're gonna hear from Michael Pittman Junior. You know what

36
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,760
Speaker 3: happened with him, franchise tag, then they extended him, gave

37
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:30,120
Speaker 3: him the big deal. We're gonna hear from him. In

38
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:32,399
Speaker 3: a minute. We're gonna close out the show about more

39
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:35,560
Speaker 3: free agents coming in here the building. Obviously we saw

40
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:38,560
Speaker 3: what Chris Ballor did in house free agents. I just

41
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:40,399
Speaker 3: want to start with this really quick. When we talk

42
00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 3: about stay and put seven in house unrestricted free agents

43
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:46,360
Speaker 3: were signed, I just want to start They're tough to

44
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:49,880
Speaker 3: replace good players, folks. Don't forget this, Matt If you

45
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:53,120
Speaker 3: let Kenny Moore walk, A guy like Kenny Moore. I'm

46
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 3: just picking him out. It's tough to replace something like that, folks.

47
00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:58,880
Speaker 3: So when all these shiny bells and whistles are out

48
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:00,760
Speaker 3: there and saying, hey, look at me, look at me,

49
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 3: don't forget you got a hell of a football player

50
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 3: that's been here for a while, and he's gonna be

51
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:05,520
Speaker 3: here for a while more.

52
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:05,800
Speaker 1: Yeah.

53
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 4: I mean, sometimes when we think of free agency, we

54
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:11,240
Speaker 4: think of new agency. It's got to be fresh, it's

55
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 4: got to be you know, outside signings. But the Colts

56
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:16,640
Speaker 4: went into free agency with a ton of holes to fill.

57
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:18,520
Speaker 4: I mean, you think about it. They're their best and

58
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:22,560
Speaker 4: most reliable wide receiver. They're run stuffing nose tackle and

59
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:27,240
Speaker 4: Grover Stewart. They're versatile nickel corner in Kenny Moore, as

60
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:30,360
Speaker 4: you pointed out, depth along the defensive line and within

61
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:33,040
Speaker 4: their pass rush. They've re signed some of the best

62
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:35,840
Speaker 4: players at those positions in the NFL. But they just

63
00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:38,240
Speaker 4: happen to be guys that have been on this team

64
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,440
Speaker 4: for quite some time. And these are guys you want

65
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:44,400
Speaker 4: to keep reinvesting in because they contribute to your culture,

66
00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:47,440
Speaker 4: they contribute to you winning. You know, had the Colts

67
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:50,600
Speaker 4: lost Michael Pittman Junior, Kenny Moore, Grover Stewart, they'd be

68
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:53,639
Speaker 4: in a world of hurt right now because their replacements

69
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:55,080
Speaker 4: they don't grow on trees.

70
00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:55,799
Speaker 1: It's hard to.

71
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:59,079
Speaker 4: Find guys that do what they do as consistently as

72
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:02,000
Speaker 4: they do it. So the Colts I think, have been

73
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 4: you know, they get a lot of backlash and they

74
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 4: get a lot of criticism, and I get it right,

75
00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 4: I understand it and and to a degree, you know,

76
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:10,960
Speaker 4: I think there's a balance there, There's no doubt about it.

77
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,680
Speaker 4: But free agency just started and they've re signed and

78
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,040
Speaker 4: spent a lot of money on guys. They're going to

79
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,519
Speaker 4: play key roles next season, a lot of us to

80
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:19,360
Speaker 4: get back to the playoffs.

81
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:21,200
Speaker 3: These guys don't leave the field. I'm just talking about,

82
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:23,400
Speaker 3: of course, you talked about Grover and Kenny Moore. Taekwon

83
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:26,239
Speaker 3: Lewis a leader in that locker room. Gnard Avery, kid

84
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:28,760
Speaker 3: with a lot of upside. I love Ronnie Harrison junior

85
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:32,960
Speaker 3: on defense. Ricoberto Sanchez was also signed. But Michael Pittman

86
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:35,080
Speaker 3: that was the bell, that was the belkow of the one.

87
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:37,200
Speaker 3: Because you didn't know what was going on. Mayte, they

88
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:39,560
Speaker 3: threw the franchise tag on Pittman knowing that they had

89
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 3: to get a deal done. Why do you think it

90
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:42,880
Speaker 3: happened so fast after they placed a tag.

91
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,360
Speaker 4: Well, I mean, based on what you heard last week,

92
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 4: they were close but just weren't able to get it done.

93
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,160
Speaker 4: That's what the franchise tag is for. It's a tool

94
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:52,160
Speaker 4: to make sure that he doesn't hit the open market.

95
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:54,920
Speaker 4: And I think that was so key about last week

96
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:58,240
Speaker 4: and preventing Michael Pittman Junior from becoming a free agent

97
00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:01,080
Speaker 4: for other teams to you know, to go after. So,

98
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 4: like we've talked about plenty of times, Pittman means so much.

99
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 1: To this team.

100
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:08,520
Speaker 4: He's your leading receiver for three straight years. He's worked

101
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:12,320
Speaker 4: with seven different quarterbacks. He's your clutch, go to guy

102
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 4: when the game's on the line. And he said this

103
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,279
Speaker 4: week that you know his role from Shane Steichen, He's

104
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:19,359
Speaker 4: the enforcer. He's going to talk about it coming up

105
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:22,200
Speaker 4: in just a second, right. He's the guy that gets

106
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:25,039
Speaker 4: you to buy into this team. He's the culture tone

107
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:27,920
Speaker 4: setter there. He's the enforcer when it comes to bringing

108
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:31,680
Speaker 4: the consistency and the energy. So you know, without him,

109
00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 4: it was going to be really hard for this offense

110
00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:36,159
Speaker 4: to be you know, where it wants to be next year,

111
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:38,880
Speaker 4: scoring you know, twenty eight to thirty points per game ideally,

112
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:42,200
Speaker 4: and so he's without question an alpha on this team

113
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:45,560
Speaker 4: and a guy that everybody now looks to for stability

114
00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 4: both on the field and certainly within that.

115
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 1: Lockow no question.

116
00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:51,440
Speaker 3: Great, great couple of days for the second rounder from

117
00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:53,680
Speaker 3: the Colts, and obviously one of the team leaders. Love

118
00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 3: it for Taekwon, Lewis, Kenny Moore and Grover as well.

119
00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:58,000
Speaker 3: But like I said, Matt, I don't even want to

120
00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:00,839
Speaker 3: talk about who's, in your eyes is the most important

121
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:03,000
Speaker 3: because these guys have different years. We know what they're

122
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 3: gonna bring to the table and we know how important

123
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,560
Speaker 3: that they are. So with this in place, and especially

124
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:11,679
Speaker 3: with the Michael Pittman Anthony Richardson relationship, love what's happening

125
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:13,800
Speaker 3: right there. But keep this in mind, we didn't just

126
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,120
Speaker 3: sign the in house guys. Okay, Yeah, I saw a

127
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:19,280
Speaker 3: gentleman earlier today in this building called Raekwon Davis.

128
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:21,480
Speaker 1: I'm calling him the human soular Eclips.

129
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:25,120
Speaker 3: I don't know how to explain the size of this

130
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:28,440
Speaker 3: gentleman at six foot eight three hundred and thirty five

131
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:31,480
Speaker 3: pounds coming in, shaking hands with big old meat hooks

132
00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:34,200
Speaker 3: for hands. He's saying hello to everybody. So they went out,

133
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:36,520
Speaker 3: they got a big defensive tackle, and let's throw this in,

134
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:39,680
Speaker 3: according to reports. According to reports, that's key in this

135
00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 3: situation is key. Adam Schefter included, Joe Flacco is now

136
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:44,560
Speaker 3: wearing the horseshoe.

137
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:47,520
Speaker 4: Your thoughts, well, you know, it makes a lot of sense.

138
00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:50,039
Speaker 4: I mean, last year he proved that he can still

139
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 4: play at age thirty nine. I mean he went four

140
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:54,680
Speaker 4: and one with the Browns last year through for over

141
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:57,560
Speaker 4: three hundred yards, and four of those games took the

142
00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:00,880
Speaker 4: Browns to the playoffs. Actually, he led the NFL Jeffrey

143
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:04,159
Speaker 4: in passing yards per game the last five games of

144
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:06,839
Speaker 4: the season last year. And so, you know, in terms

145
00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:09,680
Speaker 4: of Gardner Minshew, obviously he left in free agency. The

146
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 4: Colts couldn't do much there with the Raiders making a

147
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:15,280
Speaker 4: push for Minshew in free agency because they could offer

148
00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:17,840
Speaker 4: him something that the Colts couldn't, and that's a chance

149
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,719
Speaker 4: to be a starting quarterback. And that's what Gardner Minshew

150
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:23,599
Speaker 4: is after. And rightfully so, so when you're talking about

151
00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:25,840
Speaker 4: you know who to go after to be the next

152
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 4: backup quarterback here. You want to target a proven winner,

153
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:33,440
Speaker 4: a veteran, and someone that can help mentor Anthony Richardson

154
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:36,080
Speaker 4: mentally having only played four games last step.

155
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 3: You're right there for a second, because I got everybody

156
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 3: at the donut shop in the gas station say, Okay,

157
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 3: love Joe Flacco, but he's the exact opposite of what

158
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:44,480
Speaker 3: Anthony richards said.

159
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:46,880
Speaker 4: Yes see, I know it's that a concern to me,

160
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 4: I said all along. That doesn't matter to me. Shane

161
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:52,159
Speaker 4: Steichen can win in different ways and can win with

162
00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:54,960
Speaker 4: different quarterback skill sets, as we saw last year. Again

163
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 4: the Browns went on a roll at the end of

164
00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,719
Speaker 4: the season with Flacco at quarterback. I mean, that doesn't

165
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:02,120
Speaker 4: happen and if he's not playing well, and last year

166
00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:05,480
Speaker 4: the Colts finished tenth in the NFL in scoring. Gardner

167
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:08,440
Speaker 4: Minshew primarily play in the quarterback position he finished twenty

168
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:11,120
Speaker 4: third and passer rating. They can put up points in

169
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:15,360
Speaker 4: different ways. So obviously you don't want your backup quarterback

170
00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 4: playing thirteen games next year, right. You don't want to

171
00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:20,880
Speaker 4: see Joe Flacco out there as much as Gardner Minshew was.

172
00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 4: But the Colts can tailor the offense to win with Joe,

173
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:26,840
Speaker 4: just like they did last year with Minshew. If for

174
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 4: some reason Anthony Richardson can't go.

175
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:30,960
Speaker 3: Big, strong arm guys. Both of those young men can

176
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:33,400
Speaker 3: throw the ball. Well, I say, Joe's young, he's thirty nine,

177
00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:34,560
Speaker 3: change Stikeen's thirty eight.

178
00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 1: I do.

179
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,320
Speaker 3: I love that Stikeen is an offensive wizard. I'm telling

180
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:40,360
Speaker 3: you he's not going to bring in a guy, regardless

181
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 3: of age, that can't whistle this thing down the field.

182
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:44,440
Speaker 3: And like I said, he's got a cannon. Hey, before

183
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:46,480
Speaker 3: we go in, we got Michael Pittman Junior coming up

184
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 3: to speak Zaire Franklin. The extension, Matt, why did the

185
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:52,120
Speaker 3: Colts do it? I know why they did it, but

186
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:54,679
Speaker 3: the timing of it to extension because he's still playing

187
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:56,800
Speaker 3: out the deal it kicks in in twenty twenty five.

188
00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 3: But this young man and this Disney sort of career

189
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:01,680
Speaker 3: that he's had to go for where he is to

190
00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:04,320
Speaker 3: be an NFL team leader, wonderful news for Zaia.

191
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:06,240
Speaker 4: Well, when you think about Franklin when he signed his

192
00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:09,120
Speaker 4: free agent deal before, I think was that the twenty

193
00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:12,760
Speaker 4: twenty two season Colts were making that transition on defense

194
00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:16,840
Speaker 4: from Maddieberflus to Gus Bradley, a defensive coordinator. Shack Leonard

195
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:19,160
Speaker 4: at that time was still months away from his first

196
00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:21,720
Speaker 4: back surgery and his injury problem, so you really didn't

197
00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:24,760
Speaker 4: see that coming. And he wasn't Franklin, that is, wasn't

198
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:28,080
Speaker 4: a mainstay yet on defense. Let's face it, the deal

199
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 4: that he signed before this last one this week was

200
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 4: primarily a pretty good special teams contract, and he's blown

201
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:36,000
Speaker 4: that out of the water, completely outplayed that in the

202
00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:38,320
Speaker 4: last couple of years. I mean, he's broken the Colts

203
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:42,280
Speaker 4: franchise tackle record in a season in consecutive years, second

204
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:44,960
Speaker 4: in the NFL, and tackle since the twenty twenty two

205
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 4: season league wide. You know, I told him to his

206
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:50,439
Speaker 4: face this week. I mean, there's a lot of leaders

207
00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,400
Speaker 4: on this team in this locker room, but he's it.

208
00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:56,520
Speaker 4: He's the guy. He is the biggest leader on this team.

209
00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:58,800
Speaker 4: So I thought it was a great move for the Colts.

210
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,160
Speaker 4: Good by them to do right by Zaire Franklin, one

211
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:02,560
Speaker 4: of the best linebackers in the game.

212
00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:03,199
Speaker 3: Umpist guy.

213
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:06,600
Speaker 4: Now he's now he's paid like it and too, Jeffrey.

214
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,600
Speaker 4: It also it sends a message to the rest of

215
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:11,720
Speaker 4: the locker room. It's their process. This is how you

216
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:14,200
Speaker 4: do it. This is how you get paid by putting

217
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 4: in the work and by doing your role, no matter whatever,

218
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 4: you know, whatever that is here to year.

219
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:21,400
Speaker 3: If I'm in a knife fight behind slippery noodle, i

220
00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:23,360
Speaker 3: am calling Zaire Franklin for.

221
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:25,080
Speaker 1: Help, all right, and then you go in the bar

222
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:26,920
Speaker 1: and you have Zayre buy you one.

223
00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:28,960
Speaker 3: That's right, that's right. At the same time, Hey, we're

Speaker 3: the Colts long term. We're gonna hear from him and

00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:55,199
Speaker 3: every moment more and appreciate Soundgarden getting me out of

235
00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:58,480
Speaker 3: this rusty cage. Hey, earlier this week, Matt Taylor and

236
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:02,199
Speaker 3: JJ Sankobtz sat down Michael Pittman Jr. Shortly after he

237
00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,880
Speaker 3: signed his contract extension to stay with the Colts, and

238
00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:08,160
Speaker 3: they asked him what is new contract extension means to him?

239
00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:12,360
Speaker 5: Obviously, it's just an incredible thing, And I would say

240
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:15,480
Speaker 5: the most important thing to me is it kind of

241
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:18,960
Speaker 5: tells me that I am I am the guy that

242
00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:21,960
Speaker 5: they drafted me to be. And then like that just

243
00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:25,560
Speaker 5: is like a fulfilling feeling really like just like knowing

244
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:27,480
Speaker 5: that I gave them like what they expected.

245
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:29,800
Speaker 2: You've got to know the organization over the last couple

246
00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:31,760
Speaker 2: of years, You've got to know the area over the

247
00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 2: last couple of years. What does it mean to you

248
00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:35,439
Speaker 2: to now stay here for the near future?

249
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:39,559
Speaker 5: Absolutely, I mean, I mean I've made Indie home. Obviously,

250
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:44,800
Speaker 5: I made a significant investment here with buying our house

251
00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:47,200
Speaker 5: last year. So it's really nice to like we just

252
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 5: get to stay home.

253
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,199
Speaker 2: You're a California kid though, who's kind of embraced the

254
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:54,640
Speaker 2: Indiana lifestyle, if you will, with the farm and everything.

255
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:56,120
Speaker 2: That's pretty cool.

256
00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:59,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, we just kind of found the per

257
00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:03,920
Speaker 5: property and once we were able to get that, we're

258
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 5: like Hey, why don't we get some cows like we

259
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,520
Speaker 5: have horses, and like once we got the cows or

260
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:11,800
Speaker 5: like chickens, goats out packets, like it just kind of

261
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:12,760
Speaker 5: starts flowing, right.

262
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:15,720
Speaker 4: You know, about halfway through last season, you went to

263
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:17,839
Speaker 4: Chris Ballard, you went to Shane Stike and in a very

264
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:20,560
Speaker 4: healthy way, you went to them and said, I want

265
00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:22,280
Speaker 4: to be the guy on this team. I want to

266
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:24,880
Speaker 4: be the alpha, you know, I want to shoulder the

267
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:28,800
Speaker 4: responsibility within this offense. You know, certainly you produced a

268
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:31,559
Speaker 4: great season last year with one hundred catches over a

269
00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:34,520
Speaker 4: thousand yards. Now that you're back, coming into year number five,

270
00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:38,440
Speaker 4: what do you see your role on this team in

271
00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 4: terms of what you're able to produce on the field

272
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:42,679
Speaker 4: and the leader that you're going to be inside.

273
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 1: The locker room.

274
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:46,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean Shane actually gave me like my role

275
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:50,680
Speaker 5: on one of his very first meetings. He said that

276
00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:56,800
Speaker 5: I was the enforcer and whether that's enforcing our culture

277
00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:02,040
Speaker 5: or practice habits or intensity, like I'm just I'm just

278
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:05,959
Speaker 5: there to elevate every single aspect that I possibly can.

279
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:08,200
Speaker 2: Well, what's the experience been like for you kind of

280
00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:10,960
Speaker 2: growing as a player with Reggie Wayne as your wide

281
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:11,520
Speaker 2: receiver coach.

282
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:15,199
Speaker 5: Reggie's great because Reggie's probably like he's probably the most

283
00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:18,480
Speaker 5: real coach I've ever had, and since he did it

284
00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:21,960
Speaker 5: at such a high level, as like it's like nobody,

285
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:25,280
Speaker 5: nobody takes it the wrong way, like when he's hard

286
00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:27,960
Speaker 5: on guys, and it's also just like the way that

287
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:31,880
Speaker 5: he does it and he has a really good relationship

288
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:34,840
Speaker 5: with like all of his guys, is like we almost

289
00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:37,400
Speaker 5: don't feel like he's a coach, Like we still feel

290
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,480
Speaker 5: like he's like one of us players because that's just

291
00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:43,720
Speaker 5: how like he carries himself. And anytime that you have

292
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:45,120
Speaker 5: a coach like that, like, it's great.

293
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:47,120
Speaker 2: You mentioned after the season that you were kind of

294
00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:49,439
Speaker 2: looking at Reggie and you know, a guy like Devontae

295
00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:52,640
Speaker 2: Adams who maybe didn't start really coming into their own

296
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:55,480
Speaker 2: until you're four or five in the NFL. What do

297
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:57,800
Speaker 2: you think the next gear of your game is that

298
00:12:57,840 --> 00:12:58,840
Speaker 2: you can show now.

299
00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:00,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, I just think it only goes up

300
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:06,720
Speaker 5: being that Ars is coming back, so for the first time, Well,

301
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:09,960
Speaker 5: we we have a guy that is gonna be here,

302
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:13,920
Speaker 5: and I'm excited to work with him and been back

303
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:17,960
Speaker 5: and forth throughout this whole process, and now that everything

304
00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:20,840
Speaker 5: is settled, like we can finally like do something.

305
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:22,120
Speaker 6: Yeah, that'd be nice.

306
00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 1: Michael Pittman junr is with us.

307
00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:26,800
Speaker 4: Doubling back to Shane Steike, he said that the thing

308
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 4: that is for him most impressive about you is your consistency.

309
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,360
Speaker 4: You are the same guy every single day. You talk

310
00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:36,560
Speaker 4: about being the enforcer in the locker room on the field.

311
00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:39,840
Speaker 4: Where does that consistency for you come from? How important

312
00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:40,720
Speaker 4: is that for you?

313
00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 5: I would probably say it came from watching the way

314
00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:47,280
Speaker 5: that t Y showed up like in practice, just like

315
00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:50,719
Speaker 5: t Wylett was the same guy every single day. And

316
00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:54,559
Speaker 5: like you also look at guys like Q, you look

317
00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:57,320
Speaker 5: at guys like Buck like they're the same guys every

318
00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:01,160
Speaker 5: single day. And if you want to that like level,

319
00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:04,040
Speaker 5: like you have to be like that and and just

320
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:07,160
Speaker 5: watching their like habits and everything and kind of taking

321
00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:11,360
Speaker 5: pieces from like each guy that like fit me so

322
00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:14,079
Speaker 5: so like I've been able to stand on the shoulders

323
00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:16,360
Speaker 5: like of giants, so like it's you know, like it's

324
00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:17,120
Speaker 5: like not as hard.

325
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:19,960
Speaker 2: You mentioned Anthony, Where do you think you and him

326
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 2: can go together for the next couple of years?

327
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:22,680
Speaker 1: Absolutely?

328
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:25,760
Speaker 5: I mean, I mean I'm I mean for him, he

329
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:28,880
Speaker 5: doesn't have like any type of limits. I mean, like

330
00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:31,520
Speaker 5: I can't even imagine like what is going to go down.

331
00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 5: I mean like in my head, I'm thinking scramble drill

332
00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:38,960
Speaker 5: for seventy yards or I'm running like down the sideline

333
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:41,640
Speaker 5: and he puts a perfect hole shot. What I'm most

334
00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:45,760
Speaker 5: looking forward to is him being able to stretch the

335
00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:49,640
Speaker 5: ball with his arm talent, and I think it's gonna

336
00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:51,320
Speaker 5: make the difference for us.

337
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:53,400
Speaker 2: We've seen flashes of that from you and your career.

338
00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:53,560
Speaker 5: You know.

339
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:55,760
Speaker 2: I think about like Baltimore in twenty twenty one San

340
00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:58,400
Speaker 2: Francisco that year. You know you can you can go

341
00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:00,040
Speaker 2: up and do that. You just absolutely have an I

342
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:01,440
Speaker 2: had a ton of chances at it.

343
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:02,120
Speaker 3: Yeah.

344
00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:05,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, But with like Anthony, I mean, I mean, I

345
00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:06,480
Speaker 5: think it's going to be great. And then I think

346
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:08,600
Speaker 5: that our RPO game is going to be one of

347
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:12,520
Speaker 5: the most ferocious, uh, because you got ar, you got JT,

348
00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:15,400
Speaker 5: and then all of this guys in the past game no.

349
00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:16,000
Speaker 1: Doubt about it.

350
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:19,040
Speaker 4: Year number five and beyond here for Michael Pittman Junior.

351
00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:22,080

Speaker 3: Union question of the week. It's surrounded a little bit

380
00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:32,120
Speaker 3: by the Michael Pittman junior career. Up to this point,

381
00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:36,320
Speaker 3: there are only five others that have caught more passes

382
00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:39,080
Speaker 3: as a cult. Pittman's got three hundred and thirty six

383
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:42,840
Speaker 3: over four seasons. Can you name the four receivers that

384
00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:45,800
Speaker 3: have more catches than Pittman did in a four year span.

385
00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:48,080
Speaker 1: Wow, Well, I'm just gonna play the hits here.

386
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:49,960
Speaker 3: First two are easy.

387
00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:53,200
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say Harrison. I'll say Wayne Bing Bing.

388
00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:57,080
Speaker 3: By the way, it's five, I said four, it's five. Five, Okay,

389
00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:01,040
Speaker 3: another great receiver when Reggie was there. Uh t y,

390
00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:03,360
Speaker 3: there you go, think great tight ends. And I'm not

391
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:07,880
Speaker 3: talking about mister Barry Raymond Barry not in this Dallas Clark,

392
00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:10,840
Speaker 3: Dallas Clark. And I tell you what this last one, yeah,

393
00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:13,280
Speaker 3: is also in the Ring of honor. More catches than

394
00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:15,879
Speaker 3: Michael Pittman in a four year span, and Pittman has

395
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:18,399
Speaker 3: three hundred and thirty six. Who is that fifth and

396
00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:19,920
Speaker 3: final member of that.

397
00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:22,320
Speaker 4: Clubb Well, the only other wide receiver in that in

398
00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:24,359
Speaker 4: the ring of honor that we haven't mentioned would be

399
00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:25,840
Speaker 4: the legendary Bill Brooks.

400
00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:29,560
Speaker 3: Click Willie. That is Bill Brooks, our guy right there.

401
00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:32,360
Speaker 3: That's right, Dallas, t Y, Reggie, Marvin, they're the ones

402
00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:32,840
Speaker 3: that add more.

403
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:34,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, for your hints are always so close.

404
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:37,160
Speaker 3: I'm just telling you right now, Pittman.

405
00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:38,960

406

407
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:43,199
Speaker 3: to be honest with you, are buying my way in

408
00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:46,000
Speaker 3: best I could. Hey, he had one hundred and twenty

409
00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:48,440
Speaker 3: twenty three one hundred and nine catches for one and

410
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:52,560
Speaker 3: fifty two yards. That's that target rate is at twenty

411
00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:55,719
Speaker 3: eight point two percent, which ranked eleventh in the NFL.

428
00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:44,040
Speaker 3: agents this year. We haven't talked about it yet, Okay,

429
00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:46,920
Speaker 3: Gardner Minshew off to Vegas. You mentioned them. Two year

430
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:50,720
Speaker 3: deal started, thirteen games, won six of them, eighteen total touchdowns,

431
00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:53,320
Speaker 3: did have fifteen turnovers. And how about running back Zach

432
00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:56,080
Speaker 3: Moss who signed with the Bengals. You got him going right,

433
00:18:56,119 --> 00:19:00,000
Speaker 3: Isaiah McKenzie. He's with the I believe the Giant right now.

434
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:03,800
Speaker 3: There's rumors out there that Tony Brown signed with somebody.

435
00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:04,880
Speaker 1: Off Tony Brown with the Browns.

436
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:07,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, Yeah, but hey, they're in new guys are in

437
00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:09,800
Speaker 3: the same guys we're talking about the big fellow we

438
00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:12,720
Speaker 3: got Rikwon Davis is coming in, Matt. There's still stuff

439
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:14,880
Speaker 3: out there. What are the biggest roster holes right now?

440
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:18,040
Speaker 4: Well, I think despite the the departures, I think it's

441
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:19,679
Speaker 4: probably still in the secondary.

442
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:20,399
Speaker 1: Would you agree.

443
00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:23,400
Speaker 4: I mean, they've got you know, they're still very youthful

444
00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:27,040
Speaker 4: in the secondary. Dallas Flowers coming off in achilles tear

445
00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:29,840
Speaker 4: in Week four last year. I wouldn't be shocked to

446
00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:34,840
Speaker 4: see something happens inside that secondary either at corner strong safety.

447
00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:37,000
Speaker 4: I know Julian Blackman's still a free agent, but the

448
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:39,919
Speaker 4: Colts they've got options when it comes to you know,

449
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:43,000
Speaker 4: Rodney Thomas, Nick Cross, Ronnie Harrison. But I think the

450
00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:45,439
Speaker 4: Colts they still want to get a proven veteran with

451
00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:47,280
Speaker 4: a lot of experience there in for you.

452
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:49,200
Speaker 3: Guys said Ballard's not done, keep your eyes and ears

453
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:52,320
Speaker 3: peeled Mayday. What about Julian Blackman, Danny Pinn or Jake Martin,

454
00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:55,160
Speaker 3: Tavan Bryan. Yeah, guys that are still in the house

455
00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:57,399
Speaker 3: unrestricted free agents. What players do you think have the

456
00:19:57,400 --> 00:19:58,760
Speaker 3: best chance I think to come back.

457
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:01,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, Blackman still has a I think the Colts like

458
00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:03,520
Speaker 4: Danny Pinter, but he's coming off an ankle injury last

459
00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:06,000
Speaker 4: year in the preseason. He's a guy that can play guard,

460
00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,240
Speaker 4: he can play center and give you some good, you know,

461
00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:12,040
Speaker 4: positional value there. But I think listen, here's my bold prediction, Jimmy,

462
00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:13,960
Speaker 4: I don't think the Colts are done. I think they're

463
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:16,680
Speaker 4: gonna do something sneaky in the next couple of days

464
00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:17,720
Speaker 4: that we're gonna have to keep our eyes.

465
00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:20,359
Speaker 3: Balor's got a few you know, aces up his sleep

466
00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:23,400
