Colts Cast: Colts lack of firepower fails them in Thursday night 17-20 loss to Texans Nov 22, 2019

Show notes

The Indianapolis Colts were set up to take control of the AFC South with a huge road win against the Houston Texans Thursday night, but their lack of downfield attack, and inability to stop the Texans' playmakers put them on the losing end of this 17-20 final. T.Y. Hilton was back in action, but was limited. The running game was effective, the defense was largely stout, and kept the Texans' running game in check for most of the night. However, the Colts' passing game was anemic at best. They completed only 4 passes to their wide receiver corps for the entire game, and failed to take any legitimate shots in attempt to break the game open when they held the lead. Additionally, the Colts remained steady with their running attack when they fell behind late in the game, and ultimately they were unable to take advantage of the opportunities they were presented. The Colts were excellent on third down, didn't commit a lot of penalties, but still only managed about 4.5 yards per play despite dominating time of possession. Deshaun Watson connected on big plays to Will Fuller V, and DeAndre Hopkins (2 touchdowns), and aside from a couple field goals, that was all it took to take down the Colts when so much of their game was good enough to take the victory. Today on the Colts Cast, Matt Danely dives in to the issues plaguing the Colts' offense, and how there's plenty of blame to go around between the receivers, Jacoby Brissett, and Frank Reich himself.

Colts Cast: Colts face true test in Week 12 AFC South matchup with Texans w/Kevin Hickey of ColtsWire Nov 21, 2019

Show notes

The Indianapolis Colts bounced back in a big way in Week 11 as they dominated the ground attack, and put another quality defensive effort in the books. However, in Week 12, and on a short week at that, the Colts will have their hands full with Deshaun Watson and the Houston Texans in NRG Stadium. On today's show, Kevin Hickey of the Colts Wire, joins Matt Danely to take a look at the current state of the Colts, as well as a look ahead to their Thursday Night Football matchup. The Colts have a few key pieces ruled out for the game, and another handful who are still questionable -- including T.Y. Hilton -- but luckily, the Texans are banged up as well. This meeting could not be more important for the Colts. They currently have the same record as the Texans, but the Colts hold the tie-breaker as it currently stands. With a win Thursday night in Houston, the Colts will ultimately hold a two-game lead over their AFC South foes, and remain undefeated within the division. The Colts will need to get their running game on track without Marlon Mack there to lead the way, the receiving corps may have to continue another game without Hilton, and the offensive line is looking to put another quality game together while improving their pass protection in the process. The Colts' defense has been the team's strength over the past several weeks, and they're going to need another impressive outing against Watson and this Texans' offense who will be looking to bounce back after a massive Week 11 loss to the Baltimore Ravens. Matt and Kevin discuss all of this and more as the Colts hope to create more space between themselves and the rest of the AFC South. Learn more about your ad choices.

Colts Cast: Colts finally get run-away victory over Jaguars 33-13 Nov 18, 2019

Show notes

The Indianapolis Colts dominated the Jacksonville Jaguars in their Week 11, AFC South matchup 33-13 at Lucas Oil Stadium. The Colts weren't so dominating in the first half leading 10-7 at intermission, but they did keep the Jaguars from getting into scoring position after their first scoring drive of the game by stopping the run, and getting some pressure on Nick Foles to keep his accuracy down. The Colts had big games from Marlon Mack and Jonathan Williams (27 carries for 225 yards), which continually kept the Colts in good field position, combined with their defense continuing to do their job as they have for the past month or so. Rock Ya-Sin got his first interception of the season, Bobby Okereke picked off Foles and returned it for two points as well. The Colts defense had 10 passes defensed in this and continued to pressure Foles in the second half making the Jaguars a one-dimensional team late in this one. Kenny Moore had a great game in this one, Marcus Johnson showed up for the Colts at the WR position, and Jacoby Brissett was pretty decent in his first game back under center as well.

Afternoon Pancakes Episode 20 Nov 12, 2019

Show notes

Stephen (@nicereedsteve on Twitter) and Jared (@likelyalien) talk for an hour and 45 minutes about one of the Colts most brutal losses ever. Losing to the worst team in the league is the worst thing that could happen, but should have been expected when Brian Hoyer and WRs 1-3 are hurt. They'll be healthier. Word on the street is Devin Funchess is on his way back. If we have Jacoby and T.Y. you never know? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Colts Cast: Colts can't get out of their own way in Week 10 loss to lowly Dolphins Nov 11, 2019

Show notes

The Indianapolis Colts have had a rough go at it lately. The Colts offense, and special teams has been anemic to say the least, but their defense has been doing enough to do their part towards a win. However, the Colts couldn't pull out a win in Pittsburgh, and now they've taken a loss to the Miami Dolphins at home. Brian Hoyer's QBR? Yes, a righteous 4.4, with a 46% completion rate and 3 interceptions. This was the most disgusting outing for a Colts quarterback in most fan's memory bank, and I have no clue how you can put that back out onto the field and expect the rest of the Colts' offense to have any confidence in their gameplan. Frank Reich has had better days as well. Knowing that Hoyer is who he is, Reich hasn't done many favors by throwing out a totally predictable gameplan, and failing to get Hoyer up to speed is concerning, but not all of his fault either. Hoyer is terrible, that's just the sad truth of the matter, and a coach can only do so much when the decision-making and execution isn't there. Today talks of Adam Vinatieri and how he should be let go will persist, just as they have for weeks now. And nobody should be considered less of a fan for thinking so. With a ninth straight one-score game to start the season, this team is proving their neither capable, or interested in putting a complete game together in order to legitimately battle for the AFC South title. The Colts have a lot of soul searching to do, and even further searching into how those who aren't pulling their own weight should not be playing between the lines every Sunday. From the coaching staff, down to the 53rd man on the roster, this team has a ton of work ahead of them just to be an above average team going forward. Disclaimer: This is not a positive podcast.
