Colts 32 00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:30,759 Speaker 2: were victorious in Carolina, knocking off the Panthers twenty seven 33 00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:34,080 Speaker 2: to thirteen, snapping a three game losing skid. The Colts 34 00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:36,760 Speaker 2: splitzed out to an early ten to nothing lead and 35 00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:39,840 Speaker 2: the defense limited the Panthers to just sixty two yards 36 00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:42,959 Speaker 2: and five first downs in the first half, and without question, 37 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 2: the hero on Sunday for the Colts, Kenny Moore, the 38 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:48,640 Speaker 2: second the longest tenure defensive player on that side of 39 00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 2: the ball, had a day for the Ages with two 40 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:55,120 Speaker 2: picks six, is becoming the first player in franchise history 41 00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 2: to accomplish that. He's also the first player with two 42 00:01:57,800 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 2: pick six is in the same game in the NFL 43 00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 2: since the twenty twenty one season, and just the ninth 44 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:06,040 Speaker 2: man to do that league wide since the year two thousand. 45 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,600 Speaker 2: More scored twelve points himself, almost beating the Panthers single 46 00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:12,520 Speaker 2: handedly on Sunday. But it wasn't all Kenny though. The 47 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 2: Colts pass rush was much better in this game than 48 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,520 Speaker 2: it had been during their three game losing skid coming 49 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 2: into the game. The Colts generated four sacks and pressured 50 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 2: rookie Bryce Young all game. Long DeForrest Buckner had a 51 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 2: monster game two. He chipped in with one sack, two 52 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 2: passes defense to a tackle for loss. It was a 53 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 2: good thing the defense had a great game. The Colts 54 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:34,360 Speaker 2: offense found it hard to move the ball against Carolina. 55 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 2: The offense picked up just one hundred and ninety seven 56 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 2: yards of total offense, their fewest by far this season. 57 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 2: In fact, that's the fifth fewest yards in a win 58 00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 2: for the Colts since they moved to town in nineteen 59 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:46,799 Speaker 2: eighty four, and the fewest in a win for the 60 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 2: team since the two thousand and eight season. Indianapolis was 61 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 2: just four to thirteen on third down, and Jonathan Taylor 62 00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 2: had forty seven yards on eighteen carries as the team's 63 00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 2: leading rusher, but they still won the game thanks to 64 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 2: contributions from Matt Gay, who drilled a fifty seven yard 65 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 2: field goal in the first half, which is the second 66 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:07,279 Speaker 2: longest made field goal in team history, and most importantly, 67 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:09,800 Speaker 2: the Colts did not turn the ball over. The Colts 68 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:11,920 Speaker 2: are now four and zero in games this season in 69 00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:14,640 Speaker 2: which they win the turnover battle, and zero to five 70 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,480 Speaker 2: when they are even or have a negative margin. The 71 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 2: win for the Colts moves them to four and five 72 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 2: on the season, and now they've got a chance to 73 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 2: even their record against the Patriots in Germany coming up 74 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:28,400 Speaker 2: this Sunday before they hit the bye week again. Coming 75 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:30,640 Speaker 2: up on segment number two tonight, I'll be joined by 76 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 2: Colts analysts Rick Van Turi and Joe Wrights to get 77 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 2: their thoughts on the win in Carolina.

You know, we 176 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:33,240 Speaker 4: hit the screen to JT for a touch and then 177 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 4: had the other field goal, had thirteen there and then 178 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 4: got the pick six to get twenty. And then the 179 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 4: second half, you know, we just got to do a 180 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 4: better job in the second half, you know, moving the football. 181 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 4: Obviously we're running it there. Our defense was playing it 182 00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 4: really well, but you know, we got to do a 183 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:48,280 Speaker 4: better job running it there in the second half and 184 00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 4: give ourselves a better chance there offensively in the second half. 185 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 4: But yeah, you know, we just got to go look, 186 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 4: go back and you know, do ourself scout process and 187 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 4: continue to learn and improve and make sure we're playing 188 00:07:58,200 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 4: complimentary football and all three phases going. 189 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 2: All right, this is a good one from Tommy. He's 190 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 2: asking Jonathan Taylor saw a season high twenty three touches, 191 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,559 Speaker 2: played seventy five percent of the steps, you know, the drill. 192 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 2: How important is it for him to get going early 193 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 2: for the offense's success down the stretch. 194 00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think I think that's a good question. 195 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,240 Speaker 4: I think you know, JT is a big time playmaker, 196 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 4: and obviously Zach's a big time playmaker, and we got 197 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:22,320 Speaker 4: you know, wide receivers on the outside with Pittman and 198 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,600 Speaker 4: Alec and Downs and olgle Tree and and all those guys. 199 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,760 Speaker 4: So you know, however the game flows, you know, early 200 00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:31,240 Speaker 4: in the game, whoever that is. Maybe it's Pitman touching early, 201 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 4: maybe it's JT touching early. But as long as we 202 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,560 Speaker 4: can try to get those leads and maintain those leads 203 00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 4: and have the defense play well, we'll be set up 204 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:39,560 Speaker 4: for success going forward. 205 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 2: All Right, John is asking coach, how is Jalen Jones 206 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:45,160 Speaker 2: playing in his role since the injury to Juju Brint's. 207 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 4: You know, he stepped up yesterday just you know, watching 208 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,520 Speaker 4: it and watching the film back again, but watching it obviously, 209 00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:51,319 Speaker 4: you know, in the stadium, mess down on the sidelines, 210 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:52,640 Speaker 4: just some of the places he made, some of the 211 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 4: tackles he made, the one on one pass breakups he made, 212 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 4: you know, towards the end of the game. He's continuing 213 00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 4: to improve and climb and row as a player every 214 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:02,440 Speaker 4: single week. So it's been really good to see. 215 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:04,319 Speaker 2: All Right, we kind of already talked about this a 216 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:06,720 Speaker 2: little bit, but Justin is asking what made our defense 217 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 2: so much more dominant, dominant in terms of the pass 218 00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:12,440 Speaker 2: rush on Sunday compared to the three game losing skid. 219 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 4: I think, you know, in the NFL, you know sometimes 220 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 4: you have, you know, some games where you're you know, 221 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 4: you're not at the top of your game sometimes and 222 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:21,960 Speaker 4: and you know other games at Flips and our guys, 223 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 4: you know, they were fighting and scratching, and you know, 224 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 4: obviously losing three in a row, you don't want to 225 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:27,520 Speaker 4: lose four in a row. And so you got that 226 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:30,079 Speaker 4: mindset that this ain't going to happen again. Let's let's 227 00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 4: not talk about what we need to go do. 228 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:33,760 Speaker 5: Let's go do it. And those guys stepped up and 229 00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:34,920 Speaker 5: play tremendous. 230 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:37,680 Speaker 2: All right, Last one coming from Windy coach, what is 231 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:39,920 Speaker 2: the game plan to make sure guys are not jet 232 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 2: lagged and kind of just the time change for a 233 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 2: weird start time in Germany. 234 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:45,079 Speaker 5: That's a good question. 235 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:47,680 Speaker 4: So we're gonna leave Thursday night on a red eye 236 00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 4: and we'll get in you know, at about seven am 237 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 4: on our body time, and try to keep it, try 238 00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 4: to keep it as normal as possible, you know, when 239 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:57,360 Speaker 4: we get over there. So when we land, we'll keep 240 00:09:57,400 --> 00:09:59,959 Speaker 4: them up, you know, we'll stretch them, we'll do our meeting, 241 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:02,839 Speaker 4: we'll do our practice on Friday, and then try to 242 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 4: keep them up you know, Friday as late as possible 243 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:07,959 Speaker 4: and so they can try to stay on that same 244 00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:11,080 Speaker 4: you know, time zone as much as possible going into 245 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 4: that game on Sunday. 246 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 3: Are you looking forward to Germany? 247 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:14,760 Speaker 5: Yeah? I think it's going to be great. 248 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:16,280 Speaker 4: You know, I had an opportunity to go to London 249 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 4: back in I think seventeen or eighteen when I was 250 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:21,800 Speaker 4: with the Chargers. We played the Titans over there. Great experience, 251 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:23,800 Speaker 4: but you know, it's a business trip. We're going over 252 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 4: there to win a football games. 253 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 5: The bottom line, no doubt about that. 254 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 3: We're not drinking German beer all weekend. 255 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:30,320 Speaker 5: Right, definitely, not knowing that we'll be watching tape. 256 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 2: The Patriots are up next. They're two and seven, and 257 00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 2: I know they've kind of fallen on hard times here. 258 00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 2: None of that really matters this week.

It just 338 00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:27,000 Speaker 7: was a great feeling. You know, it's irreplaceable. You can't 339 00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:29,680 Speaker 7: explain it to people unless you're really in it. But 340 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:31,280 Speaker 7: it just felt really good to. 341 00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:32,920 Speaker 3: Be a part of it, no doubt about that. 342 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 2: You're exactly right, Rick Vincuri and Joe writes here again, 343 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:38,520 Speaker 2: we're with you until six thirty tonight. Here on ninety 344 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:40,600 Speaker 2: three five and one oh seven five the van the 345 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 2: Pacers take on San Antonio Spurs tonight at Gamebridge Fieldhouse. 346 00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:47,840 Speaker 2: So we have you until then. But Rick and Joe 347 00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:50,800 Speaker 2: have both examined the game tape from Sunday as the 348 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:53,880 Speaker 2: Colts won their first game by fourteen or more points 349 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:57,000 Speaker 2: since twenty twenty one. So let's roll it Out's time 350 00:14:57,080 --> 00:15:01,720 Speaker 2: now for the tail of the tape. 351 00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:04,240 Speaker 3: Well, baby raising hell today. 352 00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 2: Okay, Pallas, bang bang, player bank, keep. 353 00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:09,720 Speaker 1: The hammer down, keep talking to one another man to 354 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:10,240 Speaker 1: clean it up. 355 00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:10,680 Speaker 7: That's all. 356 00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:12,160 Speaker 3: Get ready, get ready? 357 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:17,680 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, al tailed the tape, Joe, we begin with you. 358 00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:20,680 Speaker 2: As the Colts offense failed to go over two hundred yards, 359 00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 2: but they didn't turn the football over. The defense held 360 00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:27,080 Speaker 2: the Panthers to just thirteen points on the afternoon, Kenny 361 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 2: Moore had a day for the ages, and the Colts 362 00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:32,440 Speaker 2: took care of business against a bad football team at 363 00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:33,880 Speaker 2: now one in seven. 364 00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:34,440 Speaker 3: There in Carolina. 365 00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 2: So what else did your tail of the tape say 366 00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:38,000 Speaker 2: about the Colts win a week nine? 367 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:42,400 Speaker 6: Yeah, I thought that obviously we were offensively efficient. So 368 00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 6: let's start with offense. You know, we punted to start 369 00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 6: the game and then with a muff punt. You know, 370 00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:48,560 Speaker 6: we really only had three other possessions, and we went 371 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 6: field goal, touchdown, field goal. You can't really complain about that. 372 00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 6: And then when we got the pick six in the 373 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,040 Speaker 6: first half and it was twenty to three. I mean, 374 00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:58,000 Speaker 6: the game is essentially over, and obviously you don't want 375 00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:00,920 Speaker 6: to play not to lose. But my mind and coach 376 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:04,480 Speaker 6: Steikehind is at halftime, we just got what we're doing 377 00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:07,120 Speaker 6: and can serve the ball and not turn the football over, 378 00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:10,360 Speaker 6: and we're gonna win this game. The reality is the 379 00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:13,840 Speaker 6: Panthers struggle offensively. Our defense was dialed in. But when 380 00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,640 Speaker 6: you have a seventeen point lead a halftime three scores, 381 00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:18,640 Speaker 6: the only way you can let them back in the 382 00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 6: games you even turned the football over. So I thought 383 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 6: from that perspective, you know, we did a good job 384 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 6: of managing the game, so to speak, in the second half. 385 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:26,880 Speaker 6: I know it wasn't the greatest. I mean, you look 386 00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:28,640 Speaker 6: at the stats and we had less than two hundred 387 00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 6: total yards. We only had twelve first downs on plays. 388 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 6: Five of our first downs were on penalties from them. 389 00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:38,240 Speaker 6: But the positives are we played a clean game. Five 390 00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 6: penalties for twenty five yards. We were plus two turnover differential, 391 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 6: And the bottom line is, Matt, it's like you go 392 00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:47,600 Speaker 6: back to like a fourth grade Coao game. You know, 393 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 6: the other team had thirteen points and Kenny Moore had 394 00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 6: fourteen points. You have one guy outscoring their offense and 395 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 6: he's in your defensive secondary, You're probably gonna have a 396 00:16:57,680 --> 00:16:58,440 Speaker 6: pretty good game. 397 00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:00,560 Speaker 2: So I know, coach Jill Wright back in the day 398 00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:02,840 Speaker 2: at at our Lady of Mount Carmel, I know that. 399 00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:06,879 Speaker 6: I don't know you're giving me too much credit, But coach, 400 00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:08,320 Speaker 6: how would you feel. I don't know if you've ever 401 00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:10,040 Speaker 6: had that experience. For one of your guys in your 402 00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:14,080 Speaker 6: secondary outscored the other team by himself, that's awful impressive. 403 00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:16,359 Speaker 7: Well, I told Matt right on the right off the bat. 404 00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:19,280 Speaker 7: I'm in my forty one years of either coaching or 405 00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:22,480 Speaker 7: current the NFL. I've never seen it before. If I'm 406 00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:25,479 Speaker 7: not mistaken. Kenny's was the only time in Colts history, 407 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:29,919 Speaker 7: so I mean you're talking historic. I thought this was 408 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:33,280 Speaker 7: just really this was just a fun win totally. I mean, 409 00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:35,439 Speaker 7: and the Colts did really what they had to do. 410 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 7: They took an inferior team, they smothered him, and they 411 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:42,640 Speaker 7: demoralized their hapless quarterback. He had eleven point three quarterback 412 00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:45,760 Speaker 7: rating at the end of the day. And nothing sweeter 413 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:49,679 Speaker 7: than to see a Colt's victory formation. You know, at 414 00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 7: the end of the game. The story was really defensive dominance, 415 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:55,760 Speaker 7: more in Buckner than all the offense, taking care of 416 00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:58,720 Speaker 7: the ball. I thought, the defense, you know I'll be 417 00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:02,720 Speaker 7: at versus a horrendous offense. They showed me something, some 418 00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:06,959 Speaker 7: growth schematically, which I think could really bode well for 419 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:09,719 Speaker 7: the future if it's not a one off. You know, 420 00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:12,640 Speaker 7: I thought going back to Baker was definitely the smart move. 421 00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:15,040 Speaker 7: I thought we panicked a week ago with Brown, to 422 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:19,800 Speaker 7: be honest with you. More importantly, the Colts actually played 423 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:23,800 Speaker 7: with a lot of scheme diversity. They utilized Cover two 424 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:27,280 Speaker 7: more than they have all year, which protects the corners. 425 00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:31,159 Speaker 7: They played some Cover eight, which protects one corner, and 426 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:35,040 Speaker 7: basically that really helps the young corners. We brought some 427 00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:39,000 Speaker 7: edge fires on first down, which kind of gives you 428 00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 7: a bear look on the run. It's the equivalent of 429 00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:43,960 Speaker 7: the bear. And then I thought they did a really 430 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:47,400 Speaker 7: great job of moving Buckner around on third down, which 431 00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:51,960 Speaker 7: really created havoc x's and those matter on Sunday. Now, 432 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:55,679 Speaker 7: trust me, guys, and I really believe that Jones and 433 00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:58,880 Speaker 7: Baker can hang in there if you just don't hang 434 00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:02,119 Speaker 7: them out every down to dry like we have for 435 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,879 Speaker 7: eight weeks before that. You know, I've been saying that 436 00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:07,280 Speaker 7: for a long time. I'll tell you one thing though, 437 00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:09,239 Speaker 7: on the other side of it, I really think that 438 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:14,640 Speaker 7: we were really missing Grover Zaire and certainly speed versus 439 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:18,600 Speaker 7: direct runs. Because as bad as the Panthers were, the 440 00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:20,840 Speaker 7: one hundred and thirty eight yards rushing in four point 441 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:23,679 Speaker 7: nine right at us is a little bit alarming. But 442 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:26,879 Speaker 7: the good news is the overall dominates, the thirteen points 443 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:31,200 Speaker 7: given up, two defensive touchdowns, two turnover, three turnovers, four sacks, 444 00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 7: three picks, And I'm with you, guys. The offense did enough, 445 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:38,720 Speaker 7: you know, although the game ended up Kinny Moore fourteen 446 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:42,919 Speaker 7: the Panthers thirteen, But you know you could tell with 447 00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:47,760 Speaker 7: an overmatched and overwhelmed opponent versus our defense, the coach 448 00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:50,600 Speaker 7: played it smart and didn't turn it over, you know, 449 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:53,800 Speaker 7: which possibly would have given them a chance. You know, 450 00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 7: I will say this the Jags plan. I call it 451 00:19:56,800 --> 00:20:00,480 Speaker 7: the Jags plan. The Jaguar plan was repeated yes yesterday 452 00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:04,080 Speaker 7: by the Panthers and again really stifled us and held 453 00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:07,560 Speaker 7: us under two hundred and thirteen points. So you got 454 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:09,439 Speaker 7: to look at it two ways, because you have to 455 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:13,640 Speaker 7: critically and analyze, you know, wins like you do losses. 456 00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:16,840 Speaker 7: And what's killing us is that heavy bear front on 457 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 7: first down with Manda man coverage and then blitz us 458 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:23,120 Speaker 7: on long yard. It's our running backs fought like hell, 459 00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:26,680 Speaker 7: but there's no daylight, and our receivers are scheme dependent 460 00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 7: and without downs, there's just no separation. So the cold's 461 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:35,840 Speaker 7: going forward now, and we're in a position to go forward. Okay, 462 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:38,920 Speaker 7: we have to figure this out because people this week 463 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 7: and thereafter they're just gonna copy it and they're gonna 464 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 7: measure in it. And you know, we're not gonna win 465 00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:48,320 Speaker 7: games counting on fourteen points on defense. Okay, so you know, 466 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 7: and you can't count on just zone runs to beat 467 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:54,240 Speaker 7: this barrier. You just can't do it. And you've got 468 00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:57,800 Speaker 7: to be able to create strategic separation for our receivers. 469 00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:00,760 Speaker 7: I thought in the end, I thought Gay and Sanchez. 470 00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:03,280 Speaker 7: I thought Sanchez was great. The one thing he did 471 00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:06,320 Speaker 7: is he took them, He punted them back in there 472 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:09,600 Speaker 7: and forced a long, long drive all the time, our 473 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:12,920 Speaker 7: coverage a few warts. I thought in the end of me, 474 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 7: you know, with the season on the brink, there, we 475 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:18,200 Speaker 7: live to fight another day. 476 00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:18,840 Speaker 3: Yep. 477 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:22,000 Speaker 2: Colts are four and five, trying to fight that next 478 00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:24,359 Speaker 2: day in Germany. In fact, as the Colts trying to 479 00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:26,440 Speaker 2: get to five and five before the bye week and 480 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:29,160 Speaker 2: a week off there.

That's 511 00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:56,879 Speaker 2: a trip to Frankfurt, Germany. The Patriots are up next 512 00:22:56,920 --> 00:22:59,680 Speaker 2: and the Colts they're gonna need their passports, they're gonna 513 00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:03,480 Speaker 2: need the cell phone chargers, clean underwear, Rick Venturrey, that's 514 00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:04,320 Speaker 2: always a must. 515 00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:06,479 Speaker 3: Toilet trees coming up. 516 00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:09,280 Speaker 2: But they're gonna need to pack those areas that performed 517 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:13,440 Speaker 2: well on Sunday against Carolina the first area, in my opinion, 518 00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:16,480 Speaker 2: taking good care of the football and then Jonathan Taylor 519 00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:18,960 Speaker 2: because the Colts offense, they didn't put up fireworks on 520 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:22,400 Speaker 2: Sunday like they had been doing the previous couple of weeks, Rick, 521 00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:24,440 Speaker 2: But they did finish the day with one hundred and 522 00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:27,399 Speaker 2: ninety eight total yards on two point six yards of 523 00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:30,280 Speaker 2: carry and four point nine yards a pass. But they 524 00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:34,679 Speaker 2: had zero plays over twenty which is kind of abnormal 525 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:36,720 Speaker 2: for where the Colts had been going into the game. 526 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:38,760 Speaker 2: But the one thing they did not do turn the 527 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:41,040 Speaker 2: football over. The Colts are now they're now four and 528 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:44,000 Speaker 2: over this season when they don't suffer an offensive turnover. 529 00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:46,920 Speaker 2: Jonathan Taylor was the focal point of that running game, 530 00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 2: but he only had forty seven yards on eighteen carries. So, Rick, 531 00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:53,439 Speaker 2: how important is it for the Colts to pack the 532 00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:57,960 Speaker 2: turnover deodorant and also a Jonathan Taylor focused offensive passport 533 00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,560 Speaker 2: to Germany this week against the Patriot trying to get 534 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:01,479 Speaker 2: back to five hundred. 535 00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:04,359 Speaker 7: Yeah, I think you're absolutely right. I think that's one 536 00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:07,679 Speaker 7: in one A in terms of Germany. In terms of 537 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:11,120 Speaker 7: the rest of the season. You know, basically you can 538 00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:15,800 Speaker 7: go back over time, and there's very few times when 539 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 7: a team that doesn't win the turnover battle over the 540 00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 7: long haul ever as in the playoffs or ever, is 541 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:25,480 Speaker 7: a really good team. I mean, turnover differential is probably 542 00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:28,680 Speaker 7: the number one stat in the league, and so when 543 00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:30,720 Speaker 7: you don't turn it over number one, you got a 544 00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:34,640 Speaker 7: big chance to win. Yeah, turnovers are equalizers. I say 545 00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:36,720 Speaker 7: that all the time. If you just want to look 546 00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:39,520 Speaker 7: at one game this year, we were by far the 547 00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 7: better team in the Cleveland Browns game. I mean, we 548 00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:47,320 Speaker 7: dominated every statistic substantially in that game, but the four 549 00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:50,560 Speaker 7: turnovers in the block kick ended up doing us. And 550 00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:54,280 Speaker 7: so that's a classic example. But we got to get 551 00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:57,040 Speaker 7: Taylor going. I don't think there's any question about it. 552 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,720 Speaker 7: You know, Taylor and Moss, I just think they're terrific. 553 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:03,639 Speaker 7: But Taylor is special. You know. We did get him 554 00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:06,680 Speaker 7: the screen pass and he did the rest. Nelson did 555 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:08,600 Speaker 7: a really good job getting out in front of him, 556 00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:11,480 Speaker 7: but he scored. And this is what I was saying 557 00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:14,200 Speaker 7: before in the intro. We've got to figure out how 558 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:16,280 Speaker 7: to run the ball versus bear defense. And it's not 559 00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:19,120 Speaker 7: going to be zoned because I don't think that you're 560 00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:22,280 Speaker 7: going to beat many teams with those offensive numbers. Now, 561 00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:24,960 Speaker 7: I think it was smart in a way, just don't 562 00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:28,159 Speaker 7: screw it up Sunday, But I don't think going forward 563 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:30,560 Speaker 7: We're not going to play a team that's that bad, really, 564 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:33,520 Speaker 7: and we're not going to overwhelm an offense like that 565 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:36,600 Speaker 7: week after week. So I think it's really important that 566 00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 7: we evolve again. We were on our way and we 567 00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:41,360 Speaker 7: kind of got away from it. Get a little bit 568 00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:44,040 Speaker 7: more power, a little bit more lead. We've got to 569 00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:47,240 Speaker 7: figure out ways to run versus the bear defense, and 570 00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:49,919 Speaker 7: then he can't be stubborn. If they got nine of 571 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:53,480 Speaker 7: them in there between your tight ends, then Pierce and 572 00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:56,600 Speaker 7: Pittman and hopefully Downs. If he gets back, you got 573 00:25:56,600 --> 00:25:59,600 Speaker 7: to throw the ball outside because then that makes Taylor better. 574 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:03,600 Speaker 7: Start throwing the ball outside the numbers, then you're gonna 575 00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:05,919 Speaker 7: get him out of that nine man front, which then 576 00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:08,800 Speaker 7: lightens is the box. So I think you're right on, 577 00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:12,840 Speaker 7: you know, with the dob kit, there no turnovers. Let's 578 00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:14,520 Speaker 7: get let's get Taylor going. 579 00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:15,000 Speaker 3: Yeah. 580 00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:17,760 Speaker 6: I think the most important thing about Jonathan Tayel in 581 00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:20,359 Speaker 6: that game was the workload. He had eighteen rushes. He 582 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:22,560 Speaker 6: also had five catches out of the backfield. So think 583 00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:25,639 Speaker 6: twenty three total touches for him, seven for Zach Moss, 584 00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:27,439 Speaker 6: and Zach Moss is a good player. Now you're not 585 00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:29,879 Speaker 6: taking anything away from him. But Jonathan Taylor is a 586 00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:31,760 Speaker 6: great player and a game breaker, and I think that 587 00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:34,479 Speaker 6: split of twenty three to seven, you know, and like 588 00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:37,720 Speaker 6: you said, seventy five percent, Matt is really good. And 589 00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:40,320 Speaker 6: I agree with coach. I think he had that touchdown 590 00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:42,399 Speaker 6: on the screen pass. I think a lot of times 591 00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:44,440 Speaker 6: you see teams that have great runners. Tennessee does this 592 00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:47,080 Speaker 6: all the time. Teams will bottle up Henry, bottle up 593 00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:50,160 Speaker 6: Henry rowing the game, and what oftentimes gets him going 594 00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:53,760 Speaker 6: is that first screen pass that you know, flare route 595 00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:56,000 Speaker 6: out of the backfield, and then he gets the ball 596 00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,120 Speaker 6: in his hands, he's got some momentum, he gets ten, 597 00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:01,040 Speaker 6: twelve to fifteen. That loosens up the defense a little bit. 598 00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:03,560 Speaker 6: So I think potentially screens early And I agree with 599 00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:07,119 Speaker 6: coach a bear running protection playing generally, historically it's power, 600 00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:09,920 Speaker 6: you know, block everybody down, bring somebody around, or run 601 00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:12,480 Speaker 6: some sort of you know, trap or wham play. But 602 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:14,960 Speaker 6: the reality is too you know, Braden Smith is a 603 00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:17,879 Speaker 6: road greater difference maker at right tackle. You know, with 604 00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:21,480 Speaker 6: him out in Freeland, that's just not Freeland's skill set yet. 605 00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:23,960 Speaker 6: And again, the guy's battling his butt off and he's 606 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:26,320 Speaker 6: a you know, fourth round rookie that started you know, 607 00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:28,840 Speaker 6: seven games so far. But I really think our advantage 608 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:31,320 Speaker 6: when we're running downhill too is you can run it 609 00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:35,320 Speaker 6: left and strategically and schematically we got the tight ends, 610 00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:37,919 Speaker 6: and I think Ogletree is a guy that continues to 611 00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:40,400 Speaker 6: come on in battle. And so you know, those tight 612 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:42,560 Speaker 6: ends and being multiple and then kind of like what 613 00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:45,320 Speaker 6: coach said, sometimes just spread them out and get in 614 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:47,680 Speaker 6: you know, dice rder left and have four guys split 615 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,479 Speaker 6: outside the box and tailor's in there. And if you've 616 00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:53,280 Speaker 6: got six guys in there, run one back power, you know, 617 00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:55,640 Speaker 6: a one back lead and if not, you know, throw 618 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:57,720 Speaker 6: it to those guys on the outside. So I'll be 619 00:27:57,760 --> 00:27:58,640 Speaker 6: excited to see. 620 00:27:58,440 --> 00:27:58,880 Speaker 3: What we do. 621 00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:01,879 Speaker 6: But I dig overall the biggest thing, like you said, 622 00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:05,919 Speaker 6: a no turnovers, which is huge, and b Jonathan Taylor 623 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:10,000 Speaker 6: seventy five percent plus workload. That's a recipe for success 624 00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:12,080 Speaker 6: that if you're the Colts, you can ride that the 625 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:12,800 Speaker 6: rest of the season. 626 00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 3: That's Joe Wright's right there. 627 00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:17,320 Speaker 2: This is Colts around Table Live along with Rick vent Turrey, 628 00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:19,240 Speaker 2: I'm Matt Taylor. We're talking about what to pack to 629 00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 2: Germany for the Colts, let's pack up that defensive pass rush. 630 00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:26,080 Speaker 2: Because the defensive line attacked the Panthers all game long, 631 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:29,080 Speaker 2: and despite seeing all those double teams that he always 632 00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:32,000 Speaker 2: does Toforest Buckner was a beast. He had four tackles, 633 00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:35,040 Speaker 2: a sack, two tackles for loss, He had two quarterback 634 00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:38,600 Speaker 2: hits and two passes defensed, and they were all over 635 00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:41,200 Speaker 2: Bryce Young the entire game. As a team, the Colts 636 00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:44,960 Speaker 2: had four sacks, which was more sacks for that outing 637 00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:48,120 Speaker 2: than there are three games during their losing skid combined. 638 00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:50,680 Speaker 2: And the pass rush led to a season high three 639 00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:53,440 Speaker 2: takeaways by the defense. And even though the Panthers outgained 640 00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:56,120 Speaker 2: the Colts two seventy five to one ninety eight, they 641 00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:58,720 Speaker 2: had just sixty two yards and five first downs in 642 00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 2: the first half when the Colts built up that lead 643 00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:04,280 Speaker 2: twenty to three at halftime. So, Joe for you, how 644 00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:07,040 Speaker 2: imperative is it for the Colts to fold up the 645 00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:10,120 Speaker 2: pass rush stick it in that carry on to Germany 646 00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:11,440 Speaker 2: with that ten hour flight. 647 00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:12,240 Speaker 3: No question. 648 00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:14,040 Speaker 6: And the thing you got to remember too about these 649 00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 6: London games and Germany games internationally, a lot of time, 650 00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:19,880 Speaker 6: the field surface is a lot different when we played 651 00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:24,200 Speaker 6: Jacksonville in twenty sixteen, that was thick sod and guys 652 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 6: were wearing the wrong cleats and you had to switch 653 00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:28,880 Speaker 6: to seven studs at halftime. My point there is the 654 00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:32,520 Speaker 6: pocket collapses quicker. Sometimes when you're on those field surfaces, 655 00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:35,040 Speaker 6: you can get more pressure on the quarterback. That's something 656 00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:38,000 Speaker 6: we need to continue to do. And I thought our 657 00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:42,120 Speaker 6: defensive line played well, especially Buckner against an overmatched offensive line. 658 00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:44,200 Speaker 6: But the biggest thing in all that, Matt is when 659 00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:45,760 Speaker 6: the score is twenty to three at a half time, 660 00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:48,479 Speaker 6: there's no more excited person in the locker room than 661 00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:51,840 Speaker 6: a defensive lineman, and there's no more person that's upset 662 00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:54,320 Speaker 6: than an offensive lineman because when you know you got 663 00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:56,280 Speaker 6: to pass and you're dictating on the scoreboard, you can 664 00:29:56,320 --> 00:29:58,640 Speaker 6: just pin your ears back and play. And so again, 665 00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:00,800 Speaker 6: I think this recipe I said it a few weeks ago. 666 00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:03,760 Speaker 6: You know, with a Minshew let offense and not type 667 00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:07,960 Speaker 6: the explosiveness in the type of offensive diversity. With AO five, 668 00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:10,600 Speaker 6: we got to stay ahead on the scoreboard, play a 669 00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:12,680 Speaker 6: little bit more Tennessee Titan like we get a ten 670 00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:15,000 Speaker 6: point leaderly in the game, like we did, and we 671 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:16,920 Speaker 6: can really, you know, go to town, and I think 672 00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:18,880 Speaker 6: that's going to be important, especially against a New England 673 00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:22,400 Speaker 6: team that's had their challenges. They're really struggling and offensively, 674 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:24,040 Speaker 6: you know, they're limited this season. 675 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:26,040 Speaker 2: All right, I want to get to one more topic 676 00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:28,720 Speaker 2: before we break here. I want to get to Kenny 677 00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:32,160 Speaker 2: Moore on the outside, Rick, because his historic day came 678 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:34,200 Speaker 2: on a day when he played all over the field 679 00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:36,480 Speaker 2: in the secondary. He was the colts best option to 680 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:40,040 Speaker 2: play outside at times with that ongoing injury to Jude 681 00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:43,040 Speaker 2: ju Brintz, and we all remember what happened last year 682 00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:45,960 Speaker 2: with Kenny Moore had a down season, but he's found 683 00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:48,760 Speaker 2: ways this year to be more productive in the defense, 684 00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:51,920 Speaker 2: and the defensive coaching staff has found more ways to 685 00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:54,440 Speaker 2: be creative with him, and he's back to that game 686 00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:57,600 Speaker 2: changer on defense, kind of back to that twenty twenty 687 00:30:57,600 --> 00:30:59,560 Speaker 2: one Pro Bowl form that we knew him to be. 688 00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:00,480 Speaker 3: Rick. 689 00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:04,320 Speaker 2: Going along with that packing analogy, here, can Kenny Moore 690 00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:08,120 Speaker 2: cram his versatility playing inside and outside into that overhead 691 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:10,600 Speaker 2: compartment on the plane I mean to the Colts, so 692 00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:13,600 Speaker 2: they need to leave him outside now so long as 693 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:15,240 Speaker 2: Brince is out of the lineup. 694 00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:17,680 Speaker 7: Well, you know I first of all, you know, I 695 00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 7: think we all recognize this. You and I certainly did 696 00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:23,480 Speaker 7: going all the way back to training camp. I remember 697 00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:27,960 Speaker 7: saying in one of our preseason podcasts, Kenny Moore is back. 698 00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:31,320 Speaker 7: I mean, you saw a different Kenny Moore. Kenny Moore 699 00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:33,600 Speaker 7: wasn't into it a year ago. He was upset over 700 00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:36,880 Speaker 7: the contract. He never really got into it. There was 701 00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 7: just a little bit of the edge that he lost. Well, 702 00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:42,160 Speaker 7: he came back ready to go and his edge has 703 00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:45,360 Speaker 7: been there. And wherever you use Kenny Moore, he's going 704 00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:49,680 Speaker 7: to play really well because he is extremely versatile. Now 705 00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:52,360 Speaker 7: he's very, very good on the inside, there's no question 706 00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:56,400 Speaker 7: about it, because he basically knows how to play man 707 00:31:56,720 --> 00:32:00,440 Speaker 7: and zoned from an inside position. Now that's that may 708 00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:04,360 Speaker 7: sound simple, but normally a corner is not used to 709 00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:08,960 Speaker 7: playing an inside zone. It's normally different territory for him, 710 00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 7: and Kenny has that down. As a matter of fact, 711 00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:13,720 Speaker 7: he got his interceptions simply by being in the right 712 00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:16,040 Speaker 7: place at the right time. To be honest with you, 713 00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:18,240 Speaker 7: I mean the second one, he's in the right place 714 00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:20,640 Speaker 7: and the guy could have handed it to him, to 715 00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:24,000 Speaker 7: be honest with you, But I think how you use Kenny. 716 00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:26,440 Speaker 7: I think I think this game has to be creative 717 00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:29,240 Speaker 7: and there has to be nuanced and I think it 718 00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:32,000 Speaker 7: comes down to several things. But I think the first 719 00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:34,720 Speaker 7: thing is, how are you gonna play this team? How 720 00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:37,440 Speaker 7: are we gonna play the Patriots? Are we gonna are 721 00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:39,280 Speaker 7: we gonna put you know, are we gonna play them? 722 00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:41,960 Speaker 7: A lot of Manda Man coverage? And right now, they're 723 00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:45,400 Speaker 7: best receivers, are tight ends, and they're slot Douglas. So 724 00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:48,120 Speaker 7: you know, in that case, you know, you would certainly 725 00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:52,560 Speaker 7: lead Len towards playing Kenny Moore on the inside, you know. 726 00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:55,800 Speaker 7: And to me, as long as we have Baker and 727 00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:58,480 Speaker 7: as long as we have Jones, I really think they're 728 00:32:58,520 --> 00:33:02,400 Speaker 7: serviceable corners. Don't don't think they're front line corners, but 729 00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:05,560 Speaker 7: as long as you don't leave them out there, and 730 00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:07,880 Speaker 7: we didn't for the first time we played a ton 731 00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:10,479 Speaker 7: of two, a ton of eight where we got roll up. 732 00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:13,160 Speaker 7: We didn't leave them outside there, and so we can 733 00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:16,640 Speaker 7: exist with those guys. Now, if you go down one, 734 00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:19,720 Speaker 7: if you go to a Tony Brown, now I think 735 00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:22,959 Speaker 7: you have to very seriously consider playing a guy like 736 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:28,160 Speaker 7: Tony Brown inside and leaving Kenny outside utilizing his diversity. 737 00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:31,000 Speaker 7: I think that's really important. You know. The second thing 738 00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:33,080 Speaker 7: is it's, first of all, how are you going to 739 00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:35,640 Speaker 7: play somebody? You know? Who are you going to play? 740 00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:38,520 Speaker 7: Who are their top guys? If it's an outside guy 741 00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:42,480 Speaker 7: like Olave, you know, or like a Thomas, I would 742 00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:45,240 Speaker 7: have had him outside in that game. Now this week 743 00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:48,480 Speaker 7: against the Patriots, probably going to be an inside and 744 00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:51,080 Speaker 7: then you can switch them around. And then of course 745 00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:54,240 Speaker 7: it always comes down to your availability of your team. 746 00:33:54,800 --> 00:33:58,600 Speaker 7: But he is definitely He and Buckner right now are 747 00:33:58,800 --> 00:34:02,120 Speaker 7: tremendous players who are affecting the game. I don't people 748 00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:06,040 Speaker 7: I don't think people realize how Buckner affected that game, Sundy, 749 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:09,360 Speaker 7: because obviously Kenny walks away with the prize with the 750 00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:12,600 Speaker 7: two touchdowns, but Buckner was just dominating, I mean, just 751 00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:15,640 Speaker 7: dominating the way we used him. So you know, wherever 752 00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:19,080 Speaker 7: you play Kenny this year, he's going to play really well. 753 00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:21,680 Speaker 7: And again I think there I think there's a place 754 00:34:21,719 --> 00:34:23,520 Speaker 7: for both inside and outside. 755 00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:25,480 Speaker 6: Yeah, I would agree, and I think coach, you know, 756 00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:29,880 Speaker 6: just to maybe oversimplify it, he's our best weapon we 757 00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:31,759 Speaker 6: have back there in the secondary, right, And I know 758 00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:33,279 Speaker 6: you're not going to match and we don't play a 759 00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:35,920 Speaker 6: ton of man coverage, but puts your best guy and 760 00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:39,400 Speaker 6: advantageous positions against their best guys. And we got the 761 00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:41,560 Speaker 6: chance to erase some of the receivers and we saw 762 00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:43,600 Speaker 6: what happened. So I agree, we got to make sure 763 00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:47,200 Speaker 6: that we're continuing to put him in advantageous positions where 764 00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:50,040 Speaker 6: he can a really dominate on the back end and 765 00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:53,440 Speaker 6: be take some pressure off some of those other younger corners. 766 00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:55,719 Speaker 6: And I thought again, Gus Bradley, you know, called a 767 00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:58,120 Speaker 6: phenomenal game, did a great job and we'll be interested 768 00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:00,400 Speaker 6: to see how they use him, you know, coming up 769 00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:02,200 Speaker 6: Sunday in Frankfurt. 770 00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:02,359 Speaker 3: No doubt. 771 00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:04,800 Speaker 2: All right, that's our segment breaking down what the Colts 772 00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:07,279 Speaker 2: need to pack to Germany to beat the Patriots on 773 00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:09,960 Speaker 2: Sunday to get back to five and five on the season. 774 00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:12,279 Speaker 2: It's a full suitcase, now, a lot of stuff you 775 00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:14,440 Speaker 2: got to throw in there.

I know, Germany's a little bit 823 00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:38,120 Speaker 2: further away and things have changed a little bit since 824 00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:42,600 Speaker 2: that twenty sixteen opportunity for the Colts when they played internationally. 825 00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:45,920 Speaker 2: But from your experience as a player overseas, what were 826 00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:47,920 Speaker 2: the challenges and the hurdles for you as a player 827 00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:48,319 Speaker 2: back then? 828 00:37:48,760 --> 00:37:51,680 Speaker 6: Yeah, great question, I think, and you see all kinds 829 00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:54,000 Speaker 6: of different data. Some teams go over there a week early, 830 00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:55,880 Speaker 6: some teams fly in as late as they can. The 831 00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:59,000 Speaker 6: bottom line is the teams that have the most energy 832 00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:01,359 Speaker 6: at kickoff are the teams that are going to win. 833 00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:02,960 Speaker 6: And so I think, for me, this is a week 834 00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:05,239 Speaker 6: about simplifying things. If you're going to have more or 835 00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:07,719 Speaker 6: less in the game plan, have less, if you're going 836 00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:10,759 Speaker 6: to practice more or less, practice less. The reality is, 837 00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:13,320 Speaker 6: Matt the team that's got the most juice and plays 838 00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:16,000 Speaker 6: the hardest, Because sometimes you see those games and teams 839 00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:19,000 Speaker 6: are walking around like zombies a little bit and you're wondering, 840 00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:20,719 Speaker 6: you know, the game really doesn't get started till the 841 00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:22,720 Speaker 6: third or fourth quarter, and teams are kind of waking 842 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:25,880 Speaker 6: up and adjusting. And I think two don't make too 843 00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:28,240 Speaker 6: big a deal about it. Yeah, you're playing in Germany. 844 00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:29,880 Speaker 6: There's a lot of different things you gotta do, and 845 00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:31,719 Speaker 6: you're flying and on a plane. But you know, a 846 00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:33,680 Speaker 6: ten hour flight. You know, you take a five hour 847 00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:35,480 Speaker 6: flight when you go out to LA And so I 848 00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:39,120 Speaker 6: think sometimes coaches can make things more complicated and talk 849 00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:42,320 Speaker 6: about things too much and almost put it in players' heads. However, 850 00:38:42,320 --> 00:38:45,080 Speaker 6: we can keep our guys fresh, high juice, ready to 851 00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:47,600 Speaker 6: go and go out and play. I really think that's 852 00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:49,200 Speaker 6: the key to these international games. 853 00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:52,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, great point right there. Okay, let's go to Charles. 854 00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:56,120 Speaker 2: He's asking Rick, how did our linebackers fare on Sunday 855 00:38:56,480 --> 00:38:58,919 Speaker 2: without Zaire Franklin in the lineup for the first time. 856 00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:03,319 Speaker 7: Yeah, they really really struggle, to be honest with you, 857 00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:06,000 Speaker 7: you know, and and we've got some issues there. You know. 858 00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:09,320 Speaker 7: They came in, you know, Panthers came in twenty third 859 00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:12,160 Speaker 7: in the league per rush with a you know, with 860 00:39:12,239 --> 00:39:16,399 Speaker 7: a three point six average, and ended up walking out 861 00:39:16,440 --> 00:39:18,319 Speaker 7: of there with one hundred and thirty eight and four 862 00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:20,680 Speaker 7: point nine and a lot of those. You know, we're 863 00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:23,000 Speaker 7: done in the first three quarters. It's not like it was. 864 00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:26,400 Speaker 7: Garbage Yard is four point nine one thirty eight, and 865 00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:30,239 Speaker 7: most of it was directly at us. Now we've got 866 00:39:30,280 --> 00:39:32,440 Speaker 7: we've got some real issues, and I will take issue 867 00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:35,840 Speaker 7: on one. You know, we have not been the same 868 00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:39,640 Speaker 7: without Grover. It's just not We're just not. We have 869 00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:42,600 Speaker 7: not been the same. And then when you give Buckner 870 00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:46,000 Speaker 7: a blow, which you have to sometimes in a series, 871 00:39:46,520 --> 00:39:48,640 Speaker 7: and both of those guys are gone, then it's a 872 00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:53,120 Speaker 7: huge void. Then when you lose Franklin, you lose your 873 00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:56,480 Speaker 7: big hammer. And you know, I thought, you know, I 874 00:39:56,560 --> 00:39:58,600 Speaker 7: thought alousis he. I thought he went in there and 875 00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:02,040 Speaker 7: smacked people around a little. But he ain't Franklin, you know. 876 00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:06,799 Speaker 7: And then I would never play Leonard over Speed on rundowns. 877 00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:09,359 Speaker 7: If you're gonna do, if you're gonna switch them, let 878 00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:12,479 Speaker 7: Leonard play on the pass downs. But don't don't take 879 00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:15,560 Speaker 7: Speed out of the game on the rundowns like we 880 00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:19,120 Speaker 7: did Sunday, because if you look at the softness in 881 00:40:19,239 --> 00:40:22,960 Speaker 7: there on the running game, I mean, what is kind 882 00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:25,120 Speaker 7: of fortunate that they you know that they have no 883 00:40:25,239 --> 00:40:28,680 Speaker 7: passing game whatsoever, because they ran it well and we 884 00:40:28,760 --> 00:40:31,839 Speaker 7: have to do I thought we took some steps, we 885 00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:35,080 Speaker 7: ran some fires. We brought Kenny off the edge, we 886 00:40:35,160 --> 00:40:38,880 Speaker 7: brought Leonard, and we brought a Louvie one time. And 887 00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:40,799 Speaker 7: when you do that, when you bring that five and 888 00:40:40,840 --> 00:40:44,359 Speaker 7: pinch the end, it's almost like a bear. In other words, 889 00:40:44,360 --> 00:40:47,160 Speaker 7: you're trying to make things happen, take a little pressure 890 00:40:47,200 --> 00:40:50,120 Speaker 7: off the nose. And then I still would line up 891 00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:53,880 Speaker 7: in a five man bear period to stop that, because 892 00:40:54,320 --> 00:40:56,480 Speaker 7: you know, I think right now we we really do 893 00:40:56,600 --> 00:40:59,880 Speaker 7: have issues. And that was very glaring. Even though it 894 00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:03,320 Speaker 7: was a dominating defensive performance, that part of it wasn't. 895 00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:06,719 Speaker 7: So Yeah, you know, hopefully we can get guys back 896 00:41:06,760 --> 00:41:09,120 Speaker 7: as quick as we can. But I would just never 897 00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:12,320 Speaker 7: take speed off the field, EJS, speed off the field 898 00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:13,000 Speaker 7: on a rundown. 899 00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:15,319 Speaker 2: All right, question for both of you if we can 900 00:41:15,360 --> 00:41:18,280 Speaker 2: go quick kind of up against it here staying on defense, 901 00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:21,200 Speaker 2: Rick Kenneth is asking, in what ways do you see 902 00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:25,480 Speaker 2: things clicking for Quitty pay and dioa Dangbo this season. 903 00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:29,480 Speaker 7: Well, the thing about the thing about Quitty is Quitty 904 00:41:30,080 --> 00:41:32,480 Speaker 7: is never going to be that edge rusher. I think 905 00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:36,000 Speaker 7: sometimes we believe he would be, even though he has 906 00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:39,879 Speaker 7: really good speed. What Quitty is is really a tremendous 907 00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:42,799 Speaker 7: effort player, and he's a tough player. He's you know, 908 00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:45,880 Speaker 7: he's probably our best. You know, with the exception of 909 00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:48,920 Speaker 7: Buckner and Grover, those inside guys, he's by far our 910 00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:52,880 Speaker 7: best outside run defender. I mean, he is really a 911 00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:56,200 Speaker 7: typical what I call a strong side end. He's very, 912 00:41:56,320 --> 00:41:59,520 Speaker 7: very difficult, and his sacks are usually going to come 913 00:41:59,560 --> 00:42:02,759 Speaker 7: with effort and second effort, and if everybody else is 914 00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:05,719 Speaker 7: pushing the pocket, he's gonna end up getting some clean ones. 915 00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:08,920 Speaker 7: But I don't think we can ever expect Quidty to 916 00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:13,440 Speaker 7: have those double digit years. Now. Dio is very interesting because, 917 00:42:13,520 --> 00:42:16,640 Speaker 7: I mean, and I've always felt this Dio has tremendous 918 00:42:16,640 --> 00:42:20,359 Speaker 7: loose playability. And when he gets inside on a god 919 00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:22,919 Speaker 7: on a bad matchup on a guard he in which 920 00:42:22,920 --> 00:42:24,880 Speaker 7: I knew he had, it was just a matter of 921 00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:27,520 Speaker 7: you know, he got Corbett and he gave him that 922 00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:30,279 Speaker 7: snatch and go, which I'd seen other people do, but 923 00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:32,360 Speaker 7: it was just tremendous. I mean, he was right in 924 00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:36,120 Speaker 7: that quarterback's face right now, and I just I he 925 00:42:36,360 --> 00:42:39,360 Speaker 7: is a guy. Now, I expect someday to be that 926 00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:40,600 Speaker 7: double digit sack guy. 927 00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:42,839 Speaker 2: All right, that's a look at the Colts Mailbag here, 928 00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:45,400 Speaker 2: part of the Colts Around Table Live program with you 929 00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:47,759 Speaker 2: every Monday night here on the Fan.

Joe, I 953 00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:01,920 Speaker 2: guess for you, as the Colts get back on the 954 00:44:01,960 --> 00:44:04,840 Speaker 2: right track, It's still only one game, and it's still 955 00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:08,920 Speaker 2: against a team that had one win going into the game. 956 00:44:09,360 --> 00:44:11,400 Speaker 2: For you, we talked about a little bit earlier, but 957 00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:13,680 Speaker 2: how unusual of a week is this for the Colts? 958 00:44:13,680 --> 00:44:16,360 Speaker 2: On the horizon here is the Colts have to maintain 959 00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:19,240 Speaker 2: focus on a big stage in a big game before 960 00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:21,759 Speaker 2: the bye week against a team that they should beat. 961 00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:24,399 Speaker 2: New England comes into this game two and seven, and 962 00:44:24,480 --> 00:44:27,000 Speaker 2: they are in last place in the AFC in terms 963 00:44:27,040 --> 00:44:28,879 Speaker 2: of the conference standings going into week ten. 964 00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:29,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, for sure. 965 00:44:29,680 --> 00:44:31,760 Speaker 6: I mean, bottom line, we are the better football team 966 00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:34,160 Speaker 6: is there are a lot of distractions and it's not 967 00:44:34,200 --> 00:44:36,279 Speaker 6: a normal week. Yeah, but guess what New England's got 968 00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:38,000 Speaker 6: to deal with it the same way. So I think 969 00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:40,200 Speaker 6: the more we can be normal, the more we can 970 00:44:40,239 --> 00:44:42,279 Speaker 6: be simple, and the more we can realize we're the 971 00:44:42,320 --> 00:44:45,000 Speaker 6: better football team. We just got to play with the energy, 972 00:44:45,040 --> 00:44:48,000 Speaker 6: the juice, the spirit that we need to get ourselves 973 00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:50,200 Speaker 6: to five and five. You got a nice long bye 974 00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:52,200 Speaker 6: week and then all of a sudden you're in it. 975 00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:54,640 Speaker 6: You're in the thick of the playoff race and battle 976 00:44:54,680 --> 00:44:56,719 Speaker 6: in with seven games to go. That's got to be 977 00:44:56,760 --> 00:44:59,560 Speaker 6: our entire focus. But coach, I know you know the 978 00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:03,320 Speaker 6: Patriots well, you and coach Belichick old coaching. You're probably 979 00:45:03,320 --> 00:45:05,000 Speaker 6: getting a German beer there before the game. 980 00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:08,160 Speaker 7: Huh. Well, I'll tell you what you know. I do. 981 00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:10,400 Speaker 7: I do know him pretty well, and I'll tell you 982 00:45:10,400 --> 00:45:12,360 Speaker 7: what though. I will say this, and this is a 983 00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:15,279 Speaker 7: good thing. And I think if you, if you can 984 00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:18,560 Speaker 7: simplify what they do and keep it simple, I agree 985 00:45:18,600 --> 00:45:21,560 Speaker 7: with you totally, Joe there, but this is not your 986 00:45:21,600 --> 00:45:24,440 Speaker 7: father's Patriots. I mean, this is a team that is 987 00:45:24,520 --> 00:45:27,440 Speaker 7: thirty first in the league and scoring. They're twenty sixth 988 00:45:27,440 --> 00:45:29,840 Speaker 7: in the league in points giving up as of today. 989 00:45:30,440 --> 00:45:33,640 Speaker 7: You know, the quarterback is inconsistent. He's twenty third in 990 00:45:33,680 --> 00:45:37,000 Speaker 7: the league with a QBR and very uncharacteristic for a 991 00:45:37,040 --> 00:45:41,279 Speaker 7: Belichick's team is they're really a minus six turnover So 992 00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:44,480 Speaker 7: you know, play the men, don't play the myth. Uh, 993 00:45:44,719 --> 00:45:47,479 Speaker 7: you know, the myth of the Patriots mean nothing this year. 994 00:45:48,280 --> 00:45:50,680 Speaker 7: They will be well prepared. And the one thing, and 995 00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:52,560 Speaker 7: I will say this, I always say this when you 996 00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:56,919 Speaker 7: play a Belichick team, more importantly sometimes than scouting them 997 00:45:57,200 --> 00:46:00,960 Speaker 7: is scouting yourself. Know what's your strengths and weaknesses and 998 00:46:01,080 --> 00:46:04,600 Speaker 7: be very critical of what could be the weaknesses. Because 999 00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:06,719 Speaker 7: I used to tell young coaches when we got ready 1000 00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:09,399 Speaker 7: to play him from outside, is if you don't know 1001 00:46:09,440 --> 00:46:12,080 Speaker 7: your weakness is going into the game, you will by 1002 00:46:12,120 --> 00:46:14,360 Speaker 7: the end of the first quarter. If you look at 1003 00:46:14,440 --> 00:46:18,760 Speaker 7: last year's game, they attacked prior with stunts. They attacked 1004 00:46:18,760 --> 00:46:21,399 Speaker 7: at Rookie Ryman. Now Ryman is not the same guy, 1005 00:46:21,480 --> 00:46:25,240 Speaker 7: so that's not going to happen. But they particularly on defense, 1006 00:46:25,280 --> 00:46:28,840 Speaker 7: he is going to attack you to your deficiency. So 1007 00:46:29,360 --> 00:46:32,760 Speaker 7: self scout this week going over may be more important 1008 00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:33,840 Speaker 7: than scouting the Patriots. 1009 00:46:33,920 --> 00:46:37,200 Speaker 2: All right, Rick Vincerry right there.
