Inside Indiana Sports Breakfast with Kent Sterling

Jonathan Taylor won his second AFC Offensive Player of the Week award, and he'll need something just as special if the Colts are going to being the Philadelphia Eagles.

While running the ball well can be a key to winning, it guarantees nothing. Just ask the Chicago Bears!

Colts Injury report - Kwity Paye sat; Jelani Woods was limited!

Buddy Hield is balling for the 6-6 Indiana Pacers, but should still be traded because he and Myles Turner are not going to win Herb Simon a championship, but the draft capital they bring just might!

Matt Ryan takes good care of the ball Sunday - Colts beat the Eagles! Jonathan Taylor has to run well, and Yannick Ngakoue get to Jalen Hurts too. Oh, and Stephon Gilmore needs to keep AJ Brown in check, but it is Optimism Wednesday, so all is possible!

Michigan State beat Kentucky and John Calipari in two OTs last night, which was great fun to watch, and the Clippers lost behind Paul George's 10 turnovers!

Shaq Leonard out for the season after back surgery this morning. Hoping to be 100% for next year!

Frank Reich's Indianapolis house was listed Saturday, and had a pending offer later that day. If Reich is that unhappy here, I'm glad he's gone. Have to believe his contract prevents him from taking any position this week with the Eagles.

Trayce Jackson-Davis and Jalen Hood-Schifino are Adidas NIL Ambassadors for Indiana Basketball. Depending on the cash, that might leave the rest of the Hoosiers a little butt sore!

Purdue welcomes Marquette to Mackey tonight at 8:30p. Good luck to the Golden Eagles as they try to stop Zach Edey!

Saturday and the Colts won yesterday as the defense did a great job late - especially pass break-up by Gilmore and Okereke!  Victory Monday should be savored as we share the good, bad, and ugly of the 25-20 win.  

Bill Cowher chose the wrong hill to defend when he called Saturday's hire "a disgrace."  His endlessly bland analysis is where he's strong.  He should stick to that.

Jeff Saturday's first game as Colts coach comes against the Raiders, who had last Sunday's leading tackler retire yesterday! What a week for the Colts - maybe the weirdest in franchise history, and that's saying something!  

Five days ago, Sam Ehlinger was sacked by his own left tackle, and Sunday a guy who has never coached in the pro's or college will lead a roster still in playoff contention!  That's weird!

Indiana beat the brakes off Bethune Cookman last night, and now the fun starts!
