Best Of Monday 10/12: Redzone struggles plagued the Colts loss, James Boyd explains the feel in the locker room

 

00:00 – 15:47 Redzone struggles were the name of the game for the Colts as they couldn't get anything going on the run and couldn't put anything in the endzone. There were also problems with missed tackles throughout the game. Jaylen Warren couldn't be stopped from having a big game with a touchdown in the air (80-yards) and on the ground (50-yards). It's wild to accept that the Hoosiers have become the Chiefs-like team that will inevitably find their way to a win. They now face the possibility of being played out of the CFP depending on how the matchup goes with Ohio State. We also learn that Greg Rakestraw's TV debut in Indiana was for singing of all things. 

15:47 – 42:48 Weather conditions were expected to be an issue going into yesterday's game against the Steelers but it ended up not being the case. Daniel Jones avoided turnovers, which has been one of the key conversations surrounding him. He was still not much of a factor in the loss. It has been a great season for Spencer Shrader considering he was fighting for a roster spot during training camp, but it does not fare well at all for the Colts as a whole. We look down the Colts schedule within the coming weeks and wonder if they'll matter. Greg Rakestraw breaks down his ultra-busy weekend and previews some high school football action. Morning Checkdown. 

42:48 – 1:12:26 James Boyd joins and breaks down what he saw at Acrisure Stadium yesterday. He tells us about the tone in the locker room after the loss. He said that players are not properly holding themselves accountable. This team also has not had a notable win in the Shane Steichen era. In Bloomington, this obviously isn't the same team from last year but they have still been strong going into Saturday's game against Ohio State. Morning Checkdown.
