Jonathan Taylor AFC Offensive Player of Week! Ruuning well wins, right?

Matt Ryan must be turnover free versus Eagles

Frank Reich moving from Indianapolis

<p>Jeff Saturday feels no need to defend himself against critics, and why should he? &nbsp;</p><p>Colts enjoy the first drama free Monday is several weeks! &nbsp;</p><p>Eagles lose to Commanders, which may send them to Indianapolis angry on Sunday - or maybe their will is broken? &nbsp;We can hope! &nbsp;Match-ups will determine the result. &nbsp;</p><p>Indiana women's basketball with a big win, and Butler loses at Penn State because that did not hit shots!</p>--- Support this podcast: <a href="https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support" rel="payment">https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support</a>

<p>Jeff Saturday is in the center of the arena, so listening to national media hecklers is absurd - he's smart for not doing it! &nbsp;</p> <p>Philadelphia Eagles are coming in Indy, and depending upon Monday Night Football, they may still be undefeated! &nbsp;What has made them great so far this year? &nbsp;All the stats you would expect! &nbsp;</p> <p>Bill Belichick wants to expand replay to the final two minutes - to which I say NO!!! &nbsp;</p> <p>Butler plays Penn State and IU women's team is at Tennessee - both tonight!</p> --- Support this podcast: <a href="https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support" rel="payment">https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support</a>

<p>Saturday and the Colts won yesterday as the defense did a great job late - especially pass break-up by Gilmore and Okereke! &nbsp;Victory Monday should be savored as we share the good, bad, and ugly of the 25-20 win. &nbsp;</p> <p>Bill Cowher chose the wrong hill to defend when he called Saturday's hire "a disgrace." &nbsp;His endlessly bland analysis is where he's strong. &nbsp;He should stick to that.</p> --- Support this podcast: <a href="https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support" rel="payment">https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support</a>

<p>Jeff Saturday is undefeated as a head coach, so maybe Bill Cowher was wrong - the only time in years he's said anything interesting! &nbsp;</p> <p>Matt Ryan started and found a way to win for the fourth time with a fourth quarter comeback! &nbsp;</p> <p>Jonathan Taylor's 66-yard TD scamper was incredible!</p> --- Support this podcast: <a href="https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support" rel="payment">https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support</a>

<p>Matt Ryan practiced this week and will be active Sunday as Sam Ehlinger's backup! &nbsp;</p> <p>Jonathan Taylor had a good week is is schedule to go too! &nbsp;Former Bills RB Zack Moss will make debut. &nbsp;</p> <p>Shaquille Leonard felt "different" Wednesday, so he is out for Sunday, but the Raiders trump Colts LB woes as Blake Martinez retired from football yesterday after posting 11 tackles Five days ago! &nbsp;</p> <p>Renfro and Waller are on IR, so Josh McDaniels has issues of his own! &nbsp;IU and Purdue are underdogs tomorrow, and Notre Dame is favored by 15 1/2 over NAVY!</p> --- Support this podcast: <a href="https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support" rel="payment">https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support</a>

<p>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! &nbsp;</p> <p>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! &nbsp;That's weird!</p> <p>Indiana beat the brakes off Bethune Cookman last night, and now the fun starts! &nbsp;</p> <p>Purdue takes on Austin Peay tonight at Mackey, and high school regionals have awesome matchups!</p> --- Support this podcast: <a href="https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support" rel="payment">https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support</a>

<p>Parks Frazier will call plays from the booth - says he is aggressive in his own way. &nbsp;What that means, we will find out in Vegas! &nbsp;</p> <p>Shaq Leonard sat out practice, but Jonathan Taylor was full go. &nbsp;Mo Alie-Cox and Jalani Woods sat too! &nbsp;</p> <p>What's the toughest part of this week for Frank Reich? &nbsp;I'll tell you. &nbsp;</p> <p>Indiana must play against the game and not Bethune Cookman or this is an opportunity lost! &nbsp;</p> <p>Nike dumping Kyrie Irving is a business decision, not a cancel culture move.</p> --- Support this podcast: <a href="https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support" rel="payment">https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support</a>

<p>Jeff Saturday may need to coach AND run the ball for the Colts as Taylor and Jackson nurse injuries. &nbsp;Lot of subplots in this game against the Raiders. &nbsp;</p> <p>Quenton Nelson mulls his role in Frank Reich's demise as coach. &nbsp;</p> <p>Saturday expresses loyalty to the Colts and Indianapolis in a way I buy into! &nbsp;</p> <p>Rick Carlisle's late technical hurts Pacers chance at upset after Mathurin gets buckets! &nbsp;</p> <p>Indiana hosts Bethune Cookman tonight as Mike Woodson nets two recruits in the 2023 class!</p> --- Support this podcast: <a href="https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support" rel="payment">https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support</a>

<p>Jeff Saturday knows who he is, and told his players today. &nbsp;They liked what they heard. &nbsp;He told the media too, and when they doubted him, he looked them in the eye and told them again. &nbsp;</p><p>What was learned - Saturday as coach came together very early Monday morning after the Patriots game, is not part of a plan to tank, and Saturday knows might suck as a coach. &nbsp;Saturday has four days to help has staff get the Colts ready for Vegas. &nbsp;</p><p>Jonathan Taylor - limited today!</p>--- Support this podcast: <a href="https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support" rel="payment">https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support</a>

<p>Saturday is going to need Reggie Wayne to help get the roster on board with this change in leadership and culture. &nbsp;Raiders are a perfect opponent for the Colts in Saturday's first week. &nbsp;</p> <p>Jim Irsay did nothing wrong by passing over experienced coaches in favor of who he feels is a great leader. &nbsp;That is the way life works! &nbsp;</p> <p>Pacers welcome the Denver Nuggets to Gainbridge Fieldhouse - can Myles Turner get busy in consecutive games? &nbsp;</p> <p>Purdue rolls over Milwaukee! &nbsp;Balance of youth and experience will make them a tough out in the Big 10!</p> --- Support this podcast: <a href="https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support" rel="payment">https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support</a>

<p>Jeff Saturday has chosen Parks Frazier as the play caller for Sunday, and guess what - he's never done that either! &nbsp;</p> <p>Mike Matheny was chosen as a manager without experience by the St. Louis Cardinals, and they went to the playoffs his first four years, including one World Series. &nbsp;</p> <p>There is a lot of good to this decision - potentially!</p> --- Support this podcast: <a href="https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support" rel="payment">https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support</a>

<p>Jeff Saturday has great confidence in his ability to lead, and he should. &nbsp;Coaching in the NFL is a little different though. &nbsp;We get to discover whether he can be an NFL head coach right along with him. &nbsp;</p> <p>Jim Irsay expressed great confidence in Chris Ballard, but Ballard was still prickly about the media calling out a lack of weapons at receiver. &nbsp;Normally self assured, last night he looked more like a hostage than a general manager. &nbsp;</p> <p>Indiana Butler, and the Pacers got wins last night - all led by their bigs!</p> <p>This episode is supported by Pristine Auction. &nbsp;Enter to win an Autographed Jonathan Taylor Jersey AND get $10 Off your first item won! &nbsp;Use registration code Taylor when you sign up at https://www.pristineauction.com/register.</p> --- Support this podcast: <a href="https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support" rel="payment">https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support</a>

<p>Frank Reich is going to keep fighting to fix problems, and will likely cause more problems. &nbsp;Sam Ehlinger is not the only target of blame, but he's one of them. &nbsp;Offensive line ineptitude led the Colts to fail on all 124 first down conversion, and the Colts and Patriots combined for fewer total yards than in any previous Colts game EVER! &nbsp;</p> <p>Hoosiers and Butler open their seasons tonight - and the Pacers host the Pelicans in a quest to reach .500! &nbsp;</p> <p>Enter to win an Autographed Jonathan Taylor Jersey AND get $10 Off your first item won! &nbsp;Use registration code Taylor when you sign up at https://www.pristineauction.com/register.</p> --- Support this podcast: <a href="https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support" rel="payment">https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support</a>

<p>Colts gained 43 yards on 38 pass plays. Reich and Ehlinger are easy targets for blame, but who on the offense shouldn't be blamed? &nbsp;</p> <p>Matt Pryor was replaced by Will Fries, but why did he start? &nbsp;</p> <p>The ways this game was embarrassing are endless, but the defense played hard and well - starting with Grover Stewart and DeForest Buckner!</p> --- Support this podcast: <a href="https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support" rel="payment">https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support</a>

<p>Jonathan Taylor needs to trick his ankle into pain free explosiveness for three hours Sunday if the Colts are going to beat the turnover prone Patriots. &nbsp;</p> <p>Patriots are very generous with the ball, but like to take it back too. &nbsp;Bill Belichick just an ordinary coach now. &nbsp;</p> <p>Hoosiers beat St. Francis, but Xavier Johnson back to driving fans crazy. &nbsp;</p> <p>IU hosts Penn State tomorrow and the payoff for a moneyline bet on Penn State is reasonable!</p> --- Support this podcast: <a href="https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support" rel="payment">https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support</a>

<p>Jonathan Taylor says he will use "tricks of the trade" to try to be ready Sunday against Patriots. &nbsp;</p> <p>Gus Bradley says Shaquille Leonard is improving physically AND in his grasp of the defense. &nbsp;</p> <p>Bill Belichick was a genius as long as Tom Brady was his quarterback. &nbsp;With anyone else - including Mac Jones, not so much. &nbsp;Can you name the Patriots leading rusher and receiver? &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>Indiana Basketball tonight, and the time has come for Xavier Johnson to play for the Hoosiers instead of his own glory.</p> --- Support this podcast: <a href="https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support" rel="payment">https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support</a>

<p>Frank Reich's platitudes and bouquets need to stop in favor of the truth. &nbsp;Good or bad, fans deserve to hear something honest from the coach of their team after the offensive coordinator is fired and a running back is traded without reasonable explanation. &nbsp;</p> <p>Truth must be offered or no one will believe a word! &nbsp;</p> <p>This "everyone is a leader" nonsense must end, and so should Reich's bromides. &nbsp;</p> <p>Jonathan Taylor did not practice and neither did Matt Ryan. &nbsp;Bill Self has been suspended for something - not sure or Kansas remembers what - but the NCAA's IARP will disband after it remembers!</p> --- Support this podcast: <a href="https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support" rel="payment">https://anchor.fm/the-kent-sterling-show/support</a>
