The Patriots dynasty is definitely over with, with the Miami Dolphins winning in New England.

Are the Philadelphia Eagles, San Francisco 49ers, or the Dallas Cowboys the best in the NFC?

Who are the most surprising 0-2 teams in the NFL?

The Arizona Cardinals have a real issue with Kyler Murray.

Russell Wilson is the problem in Denver.

What is wrong with the 0-2 Los Angeles Chargers?

Baker Mayfield is the right quarterback for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Are teams paying too much for QB's who haven't proved themselves without top targets?

How big is the problem right now with the New York Jets?

The starting QB has to be the leader of the team.

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 offensive linemen together, but the longer they do, the more they gel.

When a player has a concussion, (especially your star QB) let him have an extra week of healing.

Anthony Richardson is more vulnerable to injuries due to being an athletic QB, and defenses ALWAYS looking for that extra hit.

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, week 1 versus the Ravens.

Colts have a big advantage in the trenches when on defense, and an sleight edge when on offense.

Texans want to put the past behind them. The Colts have had their number.

Hoping Andrew Ogletree is able to pass concussion protocol, but don't cut corners.

Expect the Tight Ends to have a good game.

The Running Back HAVE to get more than 2.1 Yards per carry!

Indy also needs to have the treat of a deep pass, as opposed to last week.

Even though most defenses will play cover 2 or cover 1 vs AR, you can scheme up open deep shots.

Shane Steichen did not show their hand week 1, and kept things fairly simple for the players.

Indy can not turn the ball over more than the other team, and expect a win.

Game Predictions.

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 2nd half.

Richardson had a knee, and an ankle injury, in his first game.

What hurt the Colts offense is that they could not run the football.

Jonathan Taylor would not had made much of a difference in this game.

Donald Thomas never played football until he was already at the University of Connecticut.

He tore his Bicep and Quad, within 3 plays of each other!

While on a snap count during practice, Donald re-tears his quad on his final snap of the day!

Trying to live your life, after sustaining a major injury.

Only try to control what you can, and take the politics out of it, if you want to succeed in the NFL.

Ryan Grigson managed with his gut, more than analyzing his moves.

He was welcomed with open arms in the locker room, even though he came from New England.

Reggie Wayne called Donald when he was with the Patriots, telling him "It's too strict up here!"

He works with Gary Brackett every day, to give back to the youth.

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.

Jags offense will try to jump out on the Colts early, and force Indy into a passing offense.

The Colts NEED to figure out what kind of team they are early.

There is no telling what a Colts offense drawn up by head coach: Shane Steichen will look like.

Score Predictions.

This defense and offense for the Indianapolis Colts is different from years past.

Offensive coordinator: Jim-Bob Cooter talks about how opening the playing is going to be fun this week.

The Colts coaches won't be overanalyzing Anthony Richardson this season.

Planning on team wins. Sometimes you have to win ugly low scoring games defensively.

Defensive Coordinator: Gus Bradley say's he believes his young defense is ready for the season.

Using the Jacksonville Jaguars as a measuring stick to find out where the defense is.

Trust in your teammates is so important in the defensive secondary.

Turnovers need to be a big focus for this young defense this season.

The Colts coaches really believe in their young secondary.

Thank you to the Indianapolis Colts for allowing the use of these press conferences.

Indianapolis Colts GM: Chris Ballard was slammed with 90% questions about Jonathan Taylor, in what was supposed to be a press conference about the 2023 roster.

Ballard states he wants to mend fences with the star Running Back.

Ballard has never let the position market determine whether he pays someone.

Doing what is best for the team, in regards to trade compensation, and the PUP list.

Emotions got in the way, and caused a rift between player and organization.

He has never said he does not want Jonathan Taylor.

The Colts have never used the franchise tag during Ballard's tenure.

Being up front and honest with players is always the best policy.

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: Shane Steichen designed.

The Colts keep 6 (really 7) linebackers.

The Colts defensive Line is as what was expected.

This is just the initial roster, expect changes by week 1.

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.

Anthony's poise is great, and that helps his decision making.

The offensive line showed improvement in pass protection and run blocking.

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!

Darrell Baker Jr., Dallis Flowers, and the backup Cornerbacks, has been impressive.

Wide Receiver Alec Pierce needs to play better.

The unforced fumble by Richardson is not too big of a deal.
