Best of Kevin & Query - Thursday 10/27 - Lots of guests with Scott Agnes, Ben Standig, and Zak Keefer all joining the program! Oct 27, 2022

Show notes

Scott Agnes joins the show to talk about the Pacers defensive troubles last night against the Bulls.Kevin wants to know if the defensive struggles started at the end of the McMillan era and never recovered. Agnes says the Turner is a great defender but not a savior and can't turn this teams defense around. Agnes dives into how Mathurin's intensity in practice translates to the court and maybe the losing record this year competes with how he approaches the game. Mathurin continue to play the game even when most people would already consider it to be over. Kevin and Agnes talk about Jalen Smith looking impressive so far this season. Scott has a small handful of details on the Pacers city edition jerseys. He claims that this jersey is somehow better than what Nike thought up.

Ben Standig, Washington Commanders reporter for The Athletic calls in to the program and goes back and forth with Kevin and Marc on the upcoming game between the Commanders and Colts. First off they discuss if Carson Wentz will return as the Commanders quarterback after his time on the injured list is up. Standig says it is likely, due to the size of the investment Washington has in Wentz, but it isn't a lock due to the where the team will be in the season. Does Washington have any buyers remorse with Carson Wentz? He jokes that Irsay could run for mayor of Washington D.C. right now and win after his comments about Snyder. Marc wants to know if Snyder is as big of a jerk as people make him out to be. Standig says that given all the stories you hear, one would assume, but unlike Irsay people are rarely in the same room as him. Will the Commanders be buyers or sellers at the trade deadline?

Zak Keefer closes out the show with Kevin and Marc. Kevin and Keefer begin talking about how Frank Reich is answering questions right now that are better suited for Chris Ballard or Jim Irsay. Keefer says it seems like Reich might be giving/defending his resume at the podium right now. He defends that Ehlinger is a quarterback that can still bring the Colts to the playoffs. Ehlinger's skillset and ability to extend plays may give the Colts an answer to their O-line struggles. Ehlinger will also provide some questions for defenses who won't be able to predict his patterns as a quarterback as easily. Irsay's voice is present in the Colts locker room all season, it affected the quarterback situation in the off-season, will it effect the coaching situation this season? If Ehlinger does well, Reich may survive as head coach for another year.
