Initial reaction to the Indianapolis Colts extending Running Back Jonathan Taylor 3 years, $14 million a year, and $26mil guaranteed. Colts GM: Chris Ballard always planned to give Taylor the extension. Indy actually value Jonathan as a first round pick, and the contract proves it. Hopefully this running back extension doesn't end like many do. Contract is basically both franchise tags, plus an extra year. Jonathan knows the offense. He's had the play book, and taken mental reps while on PUP lis...

The Colts secondary is a massive concern with injuries, and rookie play. The Tennessee Titans wide receivers could have a good day. Blake Freeland will probably play left tackle versus this good pass rush. With Kwity Paye probably out, Tyquan Lewis and the rest of the Colts Defensive Line has the game on their shoulders. Ryan Tannehill and Derrick Henry can wreck a game, if the Colts can't get in the backfield. Jonathan Taylor has practiced, but will he play? Anthony Richardson can make big play...

Jonathan Taylor say's the main goal the entire time was to be 100 percent healthy. He is committed to the Indianapolis Colts. Taylor would do everything the same to get to the point he is now in regards to getting back on the field. Super excited to get back out on the field for the first time. His teammates have asked him every day about where his rehab is at. He commends other players who have had surgery, and came back from it. He is fine with the media speculation, it's "There job". Jonathan...

The Indianapolis Colts looked completely different between halves versus the Los Angeles Rams. Indy's defense could not force the Rams offense to punt for the majority of the game. Matthew Stafford showed a lot of toughness late in the game. Colts could not execute on offense, and defense had poor tackling and no quarterback pressure. Halftime adjustments were good, but what really changed for the Colts? Anthony Richardson is still working through some rookie issues. Patience wearing thin with W...

Feeling good about the Indianapolis Colts after the Ravens game. Anthony Richardson and Ryan Kelly both should play after concussions. Aaron Donald will be all over the defensive line for the Los Angeles Rams. Zach Moss has more forced missed tackles than any other player in the NFL. If the Colts run downhill, the deep shots should be there. Indy's defense has been amazing at creating turnovers. The injury reports favors the home team. Matthew Stafford is a good quarterback, need to pressure him...

Broncos - Dolphins: 70 points in a game is just stupid. Multiple blowouts in week 3. Bills and Chiefs did their part. Patriots - Jets is the score indicative of what to expect from these teams?

One word to describe the Indianapolis Colts at Baltimore Ravens? Stressful. Wide Receiver Michael Pittman Jr.'s catch did so much for the team in overtime. Ravens blitzed about 63% of the time. Why didn't many of the blitzes not get picked up? The Colts defense is legit! Grover Stewart is a major part. The referees called, or didn't call, a very good game. Zach Moss has been solid. How does that effect Jonathan Taylor when he comes off PUP list? Juju Brents came in and played well....

Anthony Richardson probably not playing versus the Baltimore Ravens. Heavy rain in the forecast will dictate how the game will be played. Ryan Kelly is a bigger factor if he does, or does not, play? Gardner Minshew is a quality quarterback who can win football games. Donald say's the Colts offense has to run the ball outside the heart of the Ravens defense. Ravens have a lot of players on the defense nursing injuries. Ravens have 2 top O-linemen dealing with injuries also. Colts Defense is going...

Lawrence and Donald disagree on how to finish a game when you have a lead. Way too many dumb penalties, breaking down Nelson's false start. The Indianapolis Colts offensive line played well.

Donald Thomas gives out 3 game balls to the players deserving with the win! The rotation at the defensive line position was very good, with Texans injuries. Defenses are looking to make big hits on rookie quarterbacks. Should you play to not lose when you have a big lead late in the game? Some of the young defenders are trying to make impact hit, rather than wrap up tackle. Defeating the Texans is nice, but you'll get more NFL respect defeating a better opponent. It's hard to keep all 5 offensiv...

Donald Thomas is not happy that the Indianapolis Colts defense continues to break down in the 4th quarter. Is the lack of offense late game, partially to blame for 4th quarter fails be the defense? The offense looked simpler in the 4th quarter, compared to the other 45 minutes, and the Jags defense was able to clamp down. The first plays for the Colts offense was to calm the nerves of the young players like Quarterback: Anthony Richardson The Texans looked very disorganized and undisciplined, we...

The Indianapolis Colts front 7 defense is elite! The pass defense did a good job even though they are inexperienced. A lot of questionable play calls gave the Jaguars great starting field position all game. I was right about new play calls, but maybe wrong about the offensive line. Kylen Granson and Andrew Ogletree are going to be stars in the NFL. I need to look closely at the All-22 to get a better understanding of the Wide Receivers. Anthony Richardson was amazing in the 1st half, erratic in ...

The Indianapolis Colts and Jacksonville Jaguars are at two different places right now. Can an inexperienced Colts secondary handle the high powered Jaguars passing attack? Jacksonville's defense will try to confuse the Indy offensive line and rookie Quarterback. Donald Thomas thinks Gardner Minshew should start over Anthony Richardson.

The Colts have a shocking RPO roster. Indianapolis Colts release Darius Rush, but it made sense. The Colts only have Michael Pittman Jr., Alec Pierce, and Josh Downs as Wide Receivers! With 5 Tight Ends, Indy have a LOT of mismatch capability. This current roster is going to be interesting, and innovative. The Indianapolis Colts Practice Squad. The back-up Offensive Guards are still thin in my opinion. Only have 2 healthy active Running Backs on the roster. This is the team that Head Coach: Shan...

Indianapolis Colts Quarterback: Anthony Richardson's accuracy still need a lot of work. Richardson showed how valuable he is outside of current inaccuracy, with shockingly amazing pocket mobility.

Running Backs looked decent, even though none are on Jonathan Taylor's level. The Colts defensive front 7 completely destroyed the Philadelphia Eagles run game! Darre...

Indianapolis Colts and Chicago Bears joint practices are so important for Anthony Richardson, now he has been named the starter. Prime opportunity for Richardson to get a lot of playing time against the Bears. There is familiarity between the Bears and Colts. So many offensive linemen for Indy need reps into the 2nd team, with Richardson. Even though play calls are vanilla, Shane Steichen still needs to expand Richardson's playbook. Our Wide Receivers and Tight Ends need to produce vs the Bears ...

Anthony Richardson does everything amazing in the physical department. Still some questions, and things Richardson needs to work on. Offensive Line has renewed vigor, but still questions about the Right Guard. The young Wide Receivers are looking like they are improving. Shaquille Leonard looks like his old self! No pads means no real look at pass rush, but someone HAS to step up. DeForest Buckner is leading by example by doing so much extra.
