| 0:00.0 | Hello, everybody. Good morning. Happy Monday. It's not a happy Monday for me. As you can see, I'm dressed in black because I'm in morning. So it's gonna be a long show for me. I'm asking to call |
| 0:21.6 | Moss, and this is not Brandon Marshall. Brandon Marshall did not change his look overnight. We got Brandon flowers in the |
| 0:27.8 | building holding it down. What's up, B-Flaw? I know it's been a minute. It was like a little reunion when we walked in here. You look |
| 0:35.2 | fly like you're fit. I appreciate it. I knew you was gonna be flyers trying to keep up with you. You know how I go? |
| 0:40.0 | Brandon, we're into the show. His whole purpose sweatshirt. Listen, we got a lot to dive into. It was a crazy, crazy weekend for |
| 0:47.6 | football. Yesterday was crazy as well from one o'clock games all the way to Sunday night football, which we'll dive into later. |
| 0:58.1 | We're gonna kick things off, though, because Jonathan Taylor just got paid. After months of animosity, Jonathan Taylor and the Indianapolis |
| 1:09.2 | Colts have waved the white flag. Now over the weekend, the running back and the Colts agreed on a three-year 42 million dollar |
| 1:18.8 | contract extension, including 26 and a half million guaranteed. This deal makes one of the league. This deal makes Taylor one of the |
| 1:27.4 | leagues highest paid running backs. Now Taylor becomes the first running back to land a long term deal worth 10 million or more |
| 1:36.6 | since Nick Chubb in 2021. That was almost 800 days ago. I mean, first and foremost, this is the big deal. I mean, it was very tumultuous for months. |
| 1:49.6 | Jonathan Taylor went out. The Colts weren't gonna pay him. We heard Jim Urce say, you know, if I die tomorrow, no one's gonna miss us. |
| 1:57.4 | This is good for Jonathan Taylor. He deserved his breath. You know, it's always this tension when players, especially running backs in general, trying to get |
| 2:06.1 | their money. But Jonathan Taylor, the heartbeat of this team, right? And the way AR 15 and getting banged up now, their head coach Shane, who was in |
| 2:15.8 | fairly last year, he loves to run the ball. That's his weapon. Jonathan Taylor is gonna be his weapon. He's gonna keep AR 15 up, right? |
| 2:22.3 | You know, and this is what this is the little boost that the Colts needed with their offense. He's gonna keep their defense |
| 2:28.5 | out of the field. Could they go be moving the change? He can catch the ball out of the backfield. He does everything for his offense, you know? |
| 2:34.9 | And they have a, like I said, they have a great officer coordinator play call the head coach and Shane wears like he |
| 2:39.9 | need his pieces to show everybody on the team what he can do. It's interesting, too, because it felt like for a long time that this |
| 2:47.0 | relationship was beyond repair. Some people say money solves everything. But I mean, in terms of what was said from the front office, |
| 2:55.4 | you know, management, ownership, Jonathan Taylor, not feeling appreciated, willing to sit out. And, you know, that was a standoff. |
| 3:03.8 | Do you feel like this, you know, has now gone full circle and bygones can be bygones and everyone can go ahead and just put it in the past. |
