<p>Colts are getting healthy at the right time - again - as the Bills get some bad Covid news. &nbsp;Stopping the Bill is as easy as stopping Josh Allen and Stefon Diggs, which is to say not easy at all. &nbsp;Indiana's win against St. John's revealed Mike Woodson as a coach willing to hold men accountable instead of pampering boys with platitudes.</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>
