Colts Cast: Colts miss opportunity to take next step, fall to Ravens 24-10 Nov 09, 2020

Show notes

The Indianapolis Colts had their best shot to take out one of the AFC's top teams Sunday against the Baltimore Ravens. Though the Colts were without T.Y. Hilton, the Ravens were missing some big pieces and an entire unit of their defense couldn't even practice all week due to contact tracing issues. The Colts' defense was on point in the first half, but began to give up some yardage and points in the second half, as Lamar Jackson proved once again that he can't be silenced for an entire four quarters. With that said, the Colts' defense played good enough to win the game. The real issue has become the team's offense and it's remarkable inconsistency. Philip Rivers gambled possession of the ball when the team needed to build on the momentum they'd recently been handed by the defense. Jonathan Taylor had a critical fumble returned for a touchdown, and with those two mistakes alone, put the Colts in a hole the offense simply couldn't come back from. At the moment, the only answer for this Colts' offense is sustained possessions because they simply don't hold much of a big-play threat to opposing defenses. Zach Pascal has been reliable, and Michael Pittman has been another quality possession receiver for the Colts, however, with Hilton being forgettable so far this season, and with a potential-and-consistency struggle with Marcus Johnson, the quick-strike potential just isn't impressive for the Colts right now. The Colts don't have much time to lick their wounds with a divisional game Thursday night against the Tennessee Titans on the horizon. Is the Colts' offense in real trouble going forward? Will the running game ever achieve what it needs to for the offense to be effective? Can Rivers carry the offense with intelligent decisions the rest of the year, or will he continue to be a net-negative when the team faces any sort of adversity? We'll see soon enough.

Colts Cast: Colts can't capitalize in second half, fall to Browns 32-23 in Week 5 Oct 12, 2020

Show notes

The Indianapolis Colts were coming into their Week 5 matchup with the Cleveland Browns preparing to square off with one of the better rushing teams, and one of the more surprising NFL offenses to this point in the season. The Colts defense came to play once again, but Philip Rivers was mistake prone, the lack of offensive firepower was evident, and a few mental mistakes ended up being the team's undoing. Some of the Colts' issues are being smoothed out, while a couple that are real game-changers are not being corrected. This will present the biggest obstacle for the Colts and their thoughts of a post-season run if they can't get them taken care of. Injuries are beginning to mount up for the Colts, and some of them have been minimal with the breakout of guys like Julian Blackmon, and Xavier Rhodes. But, when arguably the team's best player (Darius Leonard), and the best offensive lineman (Anthony Castonzo) are out of the lineup, it's hard to come back from. Can the Colts replace the losses of Paris Campbell and Marlon Mack as the season progresses? And how vital will rookie WR Michael Pittman be when he returns? There's still a lot of good with the Colts squad, but there are some looming questions as well that need to be answered quickly. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Afternoon Pancakes Episode 7 Oct 11, 2020

Show notes

This week promises some nuance with the Colts missing their most important player on both offense and defense. The Browns are hopeless, though, and both Jared and Stephen think the Colts win by a touchdown or more!
