Speaker 1 (00:00):
Joining us now on the guest line. He had two
sacks yesterday and of course leading that defense that made
things difficult for Tennessee yesterday. Taekwon Lewis joining us on
the show. Taekwan, how are you?
Speaker 2 (00:13):
How you doing? I'm good, just I'm doing just fine.
I'm ready get this week started. You know, I was
excited about last week and yesterday's performance, but ready to
get going this week.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
You know, how does it, to be honest with you,
I'm curious of this in the NFL calendar, so to speak,
uh mondays, I would assume are primarily for you guys
to maybe get treatment and kind of look over things
and then turn the page. Like, at what point in
the course of a week do you put the previous
game completely behind you and then start looking towards the
(00:44):
next opponent. What timeline does that take place?
Speaker 2 (00:49):
Uh? I say, usually right after we finished the film. Yeah,
we watch it, go over to corrections and miss in
the NV you know, were pretty much want to the
next thing, and you just start breaking down tape, you know,
just breaking down players, plays, concepts and stuff, and you know,
(01:10):
it's it's like routine.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
Have it to us, and the film session is when
like Monday morning, Monday afternoon, Tuesday.
Speaker 3 (01:16):
What day do you guys go over?
Speaker 2 (01:18):
What's that Monday Mondays, Monday on Monday morning, Monday morning, Monday,
Monday afternoon. Then after that, uh, you know, Tuesdays are
usually our off day, but you know a lot of
guys still come to work and we just just grind
it out. Man.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
You know what's funny to me? Taekwon Lewis our guests
from the Colts. I'm curious when you're watch when you
watch film, for example, how often do you see stuff
that you don't recall during the course of the game,
or that you that you see it when you're watching
it from up high where you're like, man, that does
now I do see what we did wrong?
Speaker 3 (01:54):
Or you know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (01:54):
Or usually more often than not, does it pretty much
spell out what you knew going into it?
Speaker 2 (02:02):
Yeah, majority of the time, you know. I think the
thing with film is we usually have three views of
it that the television watcher like can't see. So when
we watched Safe, it's usually like from multiple views. He
got up high, he got right behind the D line,
and then he got the other side where the offenses,
(02:24):
so you know it gives the coaches and the players
a little bit more perspective from like each different position.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
So yesterday, let's talk about this in terms of Tennessee.
You know, you know going into it that you were
going against a quarterback who is new to the league,
but at the same time pretty darn athletic, right, you
know what sort of things just from a matchup or
maybe it's low and Umo's defense that you like, what
(02:52):
sort of things did facilitate or enable you to get
multiple sacks yesterday?
Speaker 2 (02:58):
All right? Really it was just knowing that you know,
the guys back, having our backs and coverage and you know,
guys next to me, you know, just honoring our rush lanes.
You know, that's the main thing. The key to sacks
is just rush lanes and one of your one on ones. Uh.
I think it's a lot of discipline amongst us as
(03:19):
a group. You know, cover, rush, Russian cover, all goes together.
So you know, I pull out everybody that that that
helps us get sacks, and you know we help out
when people get intercesss.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
What was the uh, I'll say learning curve. I mean
anytime that you have a new boss, a new coordinator,
it's different, right, So so when you come in with
blunt room. But what you know, what was different this year?
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Well, I would say it's a it's a it's a
lot more schematics. I would say, you know, Lou Lou
is definitely like a math scientist. You know, he has
a lot of like different ways he could like set
things up. And I mean it took a lot of
(04:04):
learning for us because you know we used to playing
you know, a four down at tax style defense and
you know this one, it's a lot more like you know,
discipline and more gap integrity, I should say, versus like
you know, any other system that I've been in, Like
it's always gap integrity, but it's more disrupt the previous
(04:29):
years we've played.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
What about for you guys as a team, Taekwon lewis
our guest. You know you're three and zero. There were
a lot of question marks coming into the year, and
I know it's the other side of the ball, but
I wanted you to just expand tekwe for our listeners
and Brocolts fans about you know Daniel Jones in general,
like he just seems to be kind of a quiet
leader type. I know, it's a different side of the ball,
(04:50):
different room. But it seems to be kind of setting
a tone for you guys in general. Is that an
accurate statement in terms of the kind of leadership Jones
the leader he is.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
I would definitely say that he is, uh the guy
who brings everyone together. Uh, you know, he knows everybody. Uh,
he hangs out with everybody. You know, He's a real
locker room guy. He's a real great guy. Man. He's
just a cool dude. You know, he's he's one of
(05:23):
the guys. He's like one of the guys. And I
mean he never like leads anyone out, you know. He
I respect him for that. I think he does a
great job with that. I think that, you know, the
camaraderie in the locker room right now is you know,
it's high. I mean we're winning, and you know the
brotherhood is getting stronger as we win. You know, throughout
(05:46):
the highs and lows of training camp and all of that.
You know, everybody start together through everything that was going on,
you know, so you know, we just blocked out the
noise and we just go to work every single day.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
Were you guys surprised that? I Mean that was such
a big storyline. The quarterback battle right. Were you surprised
it was Jones?
Speaker 2 (06:05):
I mean, I think that the way that the coaches
went about it, you know, it was just we knew
what we had to do as a defense, and we
knew we had to do as a team in order
to win. So I wouldn't say a surprise, but we
just knew that whatever the decision was, we were going
(06:26):
to rally behind it and were just gonna come together
as a team and just win win games.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
You know.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
One of the things that taekwon Lewis is our guest
that to me, I'll give it and I've mentioned this
I'll give Chris Ballad a lot of credit for, and
that is that it seems like you guys have more
depth than you have on other teams that you've been
a part of with the Colts in certain areas have
been tested, like, for example, already behind you in the
defensive backfield, you know, guys have gone down and others
(06:53):
have been able to step in and play well. You know,
they've got some depth there. But I'm I'm curious for
you or just as a unit in general, do you
do you kind of have to learn tendencies of different
guys when you're not used to being on the field
with them or is scheme scheme and the faces don't matter.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
Scheme? And I think like faces do matter. But however,
you know, you want to play to the level of
your preparation and you know, I think that all of
that plays a part into it, you know, especially as
like as a defense. You know, we're not going out
there and asking you to be someone that you're not.
We just asked that you be the best version of
(07:37):
you when you go out there. Make sure you do
your job because at the end of the day, it's
all about the team. You know, if you do your job,
you're disciplined, and you play to the level of your
preparation ability. You know, the rest of you take care
of yourself.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
Okay, now we do this each time I have somebody
on Taekwon. I'm going to do it with you real quick.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Here.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Okay, you are from Tarboro, North Carolina. Did I say
that correct?
Speaker 2 (07:59):
There?
Speaker 3 (07:59):
Okay?
Speaker 1 (08:00):
And I don't know is that where is that? Is
that near Charlotte or what part of north to the
state of North Carolina is No.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
I'm actually from eastern North Carolina. I think I like
to call it the best part of the state. Where
you get barbecue.
Speaker 3 (08:14):
Okay, fair enough.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Now your high school, by the way, purple and yellow
and the Vikings. Right, So, did you grow up a
fan of the Minnesota Vikings.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
No, I actually grew up a fan of the Indianapolis school.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
There you go, there's the answer. That's the right answer,
right there. Okay, Yeah, Now here's the thing. Your high school,
and I'm looking right now, I'm going to give you
a little trivia quiz. Here you ready, Okay, there are
a couple of players that are listed as prominent alumni
of your high school. Actually, it's pretty impressive the list
of alumni from your high school. But one of them,
(08:48):
and this one, like, I'm way older than you are, Okay,
but I'm curious how much this guy was talked about
at your schooler when you were a kid. One of
these guys was a prominent USFL player and all so
NFL player that had a really good career as a
running back, and he had played at the University of
North Carolina if I'm not mistaken in the early eighties
and was probably the first breakout.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
Do you know who I'm talking about?
Speaker 2 (09:11):
Yeah, Number forty four, Kelvin Bright.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
Kelvin Bryant is correct, yes, all right?
Speaker 2 (09:16):
Now one super Bowl ring.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
He did, as a matter of fact, one of what
the Washington then Redskins. Okay, now another guy I think
that probably would have been a teammate of yours. Did
Are you the same class as or how close were
you to Todd Gurley?
Speaker 2 (09:32):
Uh? He is one year older, one one class older?
Speaker 1 (09:35):
I mean, okay, so but you guys, I'm just assuming
that you guys had to have been really good in
high school?
Speaker 3 (09:41):
Were you really good? Yeah? Like how good? Okay? It
says here?
Speaker 1 (09:48):
Nine football state championships, sir, Tarboro was one of them
on a team.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
You were on?
Speaker 2 (09:54):
Uh? Three of them?
Speaker 3 (09:56):
Three of them?
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Wow?
Speaker 3 (09:58):
Okay, all right, fair enough?
Speaker 2 (10:00):
I think the fourth straight?
Speaker 3 (10:02):
Well who beat you in the fourth?
Speaker 2 (10:05):
Uh? I think uh? East Lincoln?
Speaker 3 (10:10):
Yeah, cheaters right, East Lincoln cheaters. Corrupt program.
Speaker 2 (10:15):
Six? I think he has six songs in one day.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
Yeah. That that won't do it for you, that's for certain. Okay.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
Then, lastly, so your Buckeyes is Ohio State? Ohio State?
Right now, how much do you still follow? I know
you guys in the locker room, you know, will joke around,
kind of poke fun at each other.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
That kind of thing.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
How much do you realistically get a chance to watch
what Ohio State's doing.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
I try to watch every Saturday if they try to
catch it.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
And they they are or are not the best team
in college football not named?
Speaker 3 (10:49):
Come on, what about it?
Speaker 1 (10:50):
Hey?
Speaker 3 (10:50):
How about Indiana?
Speaker 1 (10:51):
Though?
Speaker 2 (10:51):
Man?
Speaker 3 (10:51):
Come on, give a who's your some love?
Speaker 1 (10:57):
It's Ohio, Ohio against the world, right, Okay? Lastly, Taekwon,
you know, I know you guys probably have not gotten
a chance to get into it just yet. But one
thing we know about the Rams that is the next
on the schedule for you. Not only a great stadium,
great environment, but that is a pretty high flying offense.
Your thoughts so far, at least from the outside about
(11:19):
Matt Stafford in that.
Speaker 2 (11:19):
Group, well, we know they have some dynamic playmakers and
they're running back and Karen Williams pook and the cool
I mean, obviously he's he's he had a really great
year last year. Davonte Allams, he's an established vet. They
have Tyler Higby, you know, he's been around, and you
(11:40):
know Gray Olon. You know they have a great head
coach and McVay who all you know, I think all
of those guys, you know, I played against them before,
so you know, it's it's definitely quite fascinating to watch
what they do on offense. But you know, we line
up and play football anywhere anytime, so you know, just
(12:02):
get ready to play the game and play the right
way and go out to do our jobs and get
a win.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
Speaking to head coaches, you've obviously been here, you know
for the totality of Shane Stikeen's time, it seems from
the outside like Shane Steiken has really kind of grown
into that role. How if in any way have you
seen him grow or change from when he first became
a head coach to now.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
Oh, Shane, Shane does a great job. You know, he
does a great job navigating us in the locker room
and putting us in the right position to win, especially
with like building a bond with with with the guys. Uh,
you know, he this year we did a lot of
like off season things where we came together a little more.
You know, we got you know, I mean, you guys
(12:48):
probably seen it on social media or something, but like
you know, we do bowling, we go paintballing with just
a lot of stuff Shane, Shane like implements with us
in order to help us grow as a team, you know,
just be connected, because I mean, like he says, when
we're connected with I mean we're Yeah, when we connected,
were committed, and you know, it just builds us together.
(13:09):
So and I mean that's that's the biggest thing I've
seen for him.
Speaker 3 (13:12):
Are you a good bowler?
Speaker 2 (13:16):
I mean I'm decent, you know, Okay, I go hang out.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
I'm good at bowling for like one game and then
after that, like you, you would not have this problem.
But for me, eventually, like I'm like, man, my arm
is sore from bowling too much, which is weird, I realized, but.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
You know what I mean, Uh, yeah, it does get
like that.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
Yeah, Taekwon Lewis again. Colts Rams coming up on Sunday,
But for right now, the big news is one of
six that are unbeaten in the National Football League and
two sacks yesterday against the Tennessee Titans, two of the
four where the Colts came from Taekwon Lewis. Taekwon, we
appreciate it, man, appreciate the time and look forward to
watching you over the course of the year. And then
also don't be totally upset if in fact there is
(13:58):
some sort of an upset and I think Indiana Place.
Speaker 3 (14:01):
Does Indiana have Ohio state this year? Eddie?
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Maybe they don't. It might be a break for your bucks. Yeah,
it's a break for the Buckeyes scheduling breath.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
Beat them by a million two.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
All right, Taekwan, appreciate it man, all right, appreciate you.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
Thank you, guys.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
Taekwon Lewis from the Indianapolis Colts
Joining us now on the guest line. He had two
sacks yesterday and of course leading that defense that made
things difficult for Tennessee yesterday. Taekwon Lewis joining us on
the show. Taekwan, how are you?
Speaker 2 (00:13):
How you doing? I'm good, just I'm doing just fine.
I'm ready get this week started. You know, I was
excited about last week and yesterday's performance, but ready to
get going this week.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
You know, how does it, to be honest with you,
I'm curious of this in the NFL calendar, so to speak,
uh mondays, I would assume are primarily for you guys
to maybe get treatment and kind of look over things
and then turn the page. Like, at what point in
the course of a week do you put the previous
game completely behind you and then start looking towards the
(00:44):
next opponent. What timeline does that take place?
Speaker 2 (00:49):
Uh? I say, usually right after we finished the film. Yeah,
we watch it, go over to corrections and miss in
the NV you know, were pretty much want to the
next thing, and you just start breaking down tape, you know,
just breaking down players, plays, concepts and stuff, and you know,
(01:10):
it's it's like routine.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
Have it to us, and the film session is when
like Monday morning, Monday afternoon, Tuesday.
Speaker 3 (01:16):
What day do you guys go over?
Speaker 2 (01:18):
What's that Monday Mondays, Monday on Monday morning, Monday morning, Monday,
Monday afternoon. Then after that, uh, you know, Tuesdays are
usually our off day, but you know a lot of
guys still come to work and we just just grind
it out. Man.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
You know what's funny to me? Taekwon Lewis our guests
from the Colts. I'm curious when you're watch when you
watch film, for example, how often do you see stuff
that you don't recall during the course of the game,
or that you that you see it when you're watching
it from up high where you're like, man, that does
now I do see what we did wrong?
Speaker 3 (01:54):
Or you know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (01:54):
Or usually more often than not, does it pretty much
spell out what you knew going into it?
Speaker 2 (02:02):
Yeah, majority of the time, you know. I think the
thing with film is we usually have three views of
it that the television watcher like can't see. So when
we watched Safe, it's usually like from multiple views. He
got up high, he got right behind the D line,
and then he got the other side where the offenses,
(02:24):
so you know it gives the coaches and the players
a little bit more perspective from like each different position.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
So yesterday, let's talk about this in terms of Tennessee.
You know, you know going into it that you were
going against a quarterback who is new to the league,
but at the same time pretty darn athletic, right, you
know what sort of things just from a matchup or
maybe it's low and Umo's defense that you like, what
(02:52):
sort of things did facilitate or enable you to get
multiple sacks yesterday?
Speaker 2 (02:58):
All right? Really it was just knowing that you know,

You know, that's the main thing. The key to sacks
is just rush lanes and one of your one on ones. Uh.
I think it's a lot of discipline amongst us as
(03:19):

So you know, I pull out everybody that that that
helps us get sacks, and you know we help out
when people get intercesss.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
What was the uh, I'll say learning curve. I mean
anytime that you have a new boss, a new coordinator,
it's different, right, So so when you come in with
blunt room. But what you know, what was different this year?
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Well, I would say it's a it's a it's a
lot more schematics. I would say, you know, Lou Lou
is definitely like a math scientist. You know, he has
a lot of like different ways he could like set
things up. And I mean it took a lot of
(04:04):
learning for us because you know we used to playing
you know, a four down at tax style defense and
you know this one, it's a lot more like you know,
discipline and more gap integrity, I should say, versus like
you know, any other system that I've been in, Like
it's always gap integrity, but it's more disrupt the previous
(04:29):
years we've played.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
What about for you guys as a team, Taekwon lewis
our guest. You know you're three and zero. There were
a lot of question marks coming into the year, and
I know it's the other side of the ball, but
I wanted you to just expand tekwe for our listeners
and Brocolts fans about you know Daniel Jones in general,
like he just seems to be kind of a quiet
leader type. I know, it's a different side of the ball,
(04:50):
different room. But it seems to be kind of setting
a tone for you guys in general. Is that an
accurate statement in terms of the kind of leadership Jones
the leader he is.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
I would definitely say that he is, uh the guy
who brings everyone together. Uh, you know, he knows everybody. Uh,
he hangs out with everybody. You know, He's a real
locker room guy. He's a real great guy. Man. He's
just a cool dude. You know, he's he's one of
(05:23):
the guys. He's like one of the guys. And I
mean he never like leads anyone out, you know. He
I respect him for that. I think he does a
great job with that. I think that, you know, the
camaraderie in the locker room right now is you know,
it's high. I mean we're winning, and you know the
brotherhood is getting stronger as we win. You know, throughout
(05:46):
the highs and lows of training camp and all of that.
You know, everybody start together through everything that was going on,
you know, so you know, we just blocked out the
noise and we just go to work every single day.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
Were you guys surprised that? I Mean that was such
a big storyline. The quarterback battle right. Were you surprised
it was Jones?
Speaker 2 (06:05):
I mean, I think that the way that the coaches
went about it, you know, it was just we knew
what we had to do as a defense, and we
knew we had to do as a team in order
to win. So I wouldn't say a surprise, but we
just knew that whatever the decision was, we were going
(06:26):
to rally behind it and were just gonna come together
as a team and just win win games.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
You know.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
One of the things that taekwon Lewis is our guest
that to me, I'll give it and I've mentioned this
I'll give Chris Ballad a lot of credit for, and
that is that it seems like you guys have more
depth than you have on other teams that you've been
a part of with the Colts in certain areas have
been tested, like, for example, already behind you in the
defensive backfield, you know, guys have gone down and others
(06:53):
have been able to step in and play well. You know,
they've got some depth there. But I'm I'm curious for
you or just as a unit in general, do you
do you kind of have to learn tendencies of different
guys when you're not used to being on the field
with them or is scheme scheme and the faces don't matter.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
Scheme? And I think like faces do matter. But however,
you know, you want to play to the level of
your preparation and you know, I think that all of
that plays a part into it, you know, especially as
like as a defense. You know, we're not going out
there and asking you to be someone that you're not.
We just asked that you be the best version of
(07:37):
you when you go out there. Make sure you do
your job because at the end of the day, it's
all about the team. You know, if you do your job,
you're disciplined, and you play to the level of your
preparation ability. You know, the rest of you take care
of yourself.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
Okay, now we do this each time I have somebody
on Taekwon. I'm going to do it with you real quick.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Here.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Okay, you are from Tarboro, North Carolina. Did I say
that correct?
Speaker 2 (07:59):
There?
Speaker 3 (07:59):
Okay?
Speaker 1 (08:00):
And I don't know is that where is that? Is
that near Charlotte or what part of north to the
state of North Carolina is No.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
I'm actually from eastern North Carolina. I think I like
to call it the best part of the state. Where
you get barbecue.
Speaker 3 (08:14):
Okay, fair enough.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Now your high school, by the way, purple and yellow
and the Vikings. Right, So, did you grow up a
fan of the Minnesota Vikings.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
No, I actually grew up a fan of the Indianapolis school.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
There you go, there's the answer. That's the right answer,
right there. Okay, Yeah, Now here's the thing. Your high school,
and I'm looking right now, I'm going to give you
a little trivia quiz. Here you ready, Okay, there are
a couple of players that are listed as prominent alumni
of your high school. Actually, it's pretty impressive the list
of alumni from your high school. But one of them,
(08:48):
and this one, like, I'm way older than you are, Okay,
but I'm curious how much this guy was talked about
at your schooler when you were a kid. One of
these guys was a prominent USFL player and all so
NFL player that had a really good career as a
running back, and he had played at the University of
North Carolina if I'm not mistaken in the early eighties
and was probably the first breakout.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
Do you know who I'm talking about?
Speaker 2 (09:11):
Yeah, Number forty four, Kelvin Bright.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
Kelvin Bryant is correct, yes, all right?
Speaker 2 (09:16):
Now one super Bowl ring.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
He did, as a matter of fact, one of what
the Washington then Redskins. Okay, now another guy I think
that probably would have been a teammate of yours. Did
Are you the same class as or how close were
you to Todd Gurley?
Speaker 2 (09:32):
Uh? He is one year older, one one class older?
Speaker 1 (09:35):
I mean, okay, so but you guys, I'm just assuming
that you guys had to have been really good in
high school?
Speaker 3 (09:41):
Were you really good? Yeah? Like how good? Okay? It
says here?
Speaker 1 (09:48):
Nine football state championships, sir, Tarboro was one of them
on a team.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
You were on?
Speaker 2 (09:54):
Uh? Three of them?
Speaker 3 (09:56):
Three of them?
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Wow?
Speaker 3 (09:58):
Okay, all right, fair enough?
Speaker 2 (10:00):
I think the fourth straight?
Speaker 3 (10:02):
Well who beat you in the fourth?
Speaker 2 (10:05):
Uh? I think uh? East Lincoln?
Speaker 3 (10:10):
Yeah, cheaters right, East Lincoln cheaters. Corrupt program.
Speaker 2 (10:15):
Six? I think he has six songs in one day.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
Yeah. That that won't do it for you, that's for certain. Okay.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
Then, lastly, so your Buckeyes is Ohio State? Ohio State?
Right now, how much do you still follow? I know
you guys in the locker room, you know, will joke around,
kind of poke fun at each other.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
That kind of thing.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
How much do you realistically get a chance to watch
what Ohio State's doing.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
I try to watch every Saturday if they try to
catch it.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
And they they are or are not the best team
in college football not named?
Speaker 3 (10:49):
Come on, what about it?
Speaker 1 (10:50):
Hey?
Speaker 3 (10:50):
How about Indiana?
Speaker 1 (10:51):
Though?
Speaker 2 (10:51):
Man?
Speaker 3 (10:51):
Come on, give a who's your some love?
Speaker 1 (10:57):
It's Ohio, Ohio against the world, right, Okay? Lastly, Taekwon,
you know, I know you guys probably have not gotten
a chance to get into it just yet. But one
thing we know about the Rams that is the next
on the schedule for you. Not only a great stadium,
great environment, but that is a pretty high flying offense.
Your thoughts so far, at least from the outside about
(11:19):
Matt Stafford in that.
Speaker 2 (11:19):
Group, well, we know they have some dynamic playmakers and
they're running back and Karen Williams pook and the cool
I mean, obviously he's he's he had a really great
year last year. Davonte Allams, he's an established vet. They
have Tyler Higby, you know, he's been around, and you
(11:40):
know Gray Olon. You know they have a great head
coach and McVay who all you know, I think all
of those guys, you know, I played against them before,
so you know, it's it's definitely quite fascinating to watch
what they do on offense. But you know, we line
up and play football anywhere anytime, so you know, just
(12:02):
get ready to play the game and play the right
way and go out to do our jobs and get
a win.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
Speaking to head coaches, you've obviously been here, you know
for the totality of Shane Stikeen's time, it seems from
the outside like Shane Steiken has really kind of grown
into that role. How if in any way have you
seen him grow or change from when he first became
a head coach to now.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
Oh, Shane, Shane does a great job. You know, he
does a great job navigating us in the locker room
and putting us in the right position to win, especially
with like building a bond with with with the guys. Uh,
you know, he this year we did a lot of
like off season things where we came together a little more.
You know, we got you know, I mean, you guys
(12:48):
probably seen it on social media or something, but like
you know, we do bowling, we go paintballing with just
a lot of stuff Shane, Shane like implements with us
in order to help us grow as a team, you know,
just be connected, because I mean, like he says, when
we're connected with I mean we're Yeah, when we connected,
were committed, and you know, it just builds us together.
(13:09):
So and I mean that's that's the biggest thing I've
seen for him.
Speaker 3 (13:12):
Are you a good bowler?
Speaker 2 (13:16):
I mean I'm decent, you know, Okay, I go hang out.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
I'm good at bowling for like one game and then
after that, like you, you would not have this problem.
But for me, eventually, like I'm like, man, my arm
is sore from bowling too much, which is weird, I realized, but.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
You know what I mean, Uh, yeah, it does get
like that.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
Yeah, Taekwon Lewis again. Colts Rams coming up on Sunday,
But for right now, the big news is one of
six that are unbeaten in the National Football League and
two sacks yesterday against the Tennessee Titans, two of the
four where the Colts came from Taekwon Lewis. Taekwon, we
appreciate it, man, appreciate the time and look forward to
watching you over the course of the year. And then
also don't be totally upset if in fact there is
(13:58):
some sort of an upset and I think Indiana Place.
Speaker 3 (14:01):
Does Indiana have Ohio state this year? Eddie?
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Maybe they don't. It might be a break for your bucks. Yeah,
it's a break for the Buckeyes scheduling breath.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
Beat them by a million two.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
All right, Taekwan, appreciate it man, all right, appreciate you.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
Thank you, guys.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
Taekwon Lewis from the Indianapolis Colts
