00:00Colts right now are 2-0.

00:01They play the Titans this week.

00:03They're three-and-a-half-point road favorites.

00:06Who had that one back in June or July?

00:09Total of 43-and-a-half.

00:12I mean, there's going to be some upsets at some point this season, Mike.

00:15I don't know when it's going to happen in the NFL.

00:16The NFL can't just be all favorites winning forever,

00:18like it's been now for almost a year.

00:21But I really like what I've seen from the Colts.

00:24They're probably going to play a lot of close games, though, too,

00:26I would imagine.

00:26They're not going to blow anybody out.

00:28Right.

00:28I think that offensively they've made a lot of progress.

00:33I mean, you start with Taylor as strong a running game as you could ask for.

00:38Jonathan Taylor's been fantastic in the first couple of games.

00:42But I think a lot of people missed on Daniel Jones.

00:45A lot of quarterback-hungry teams, including one of them being in the city region

00:52where I live in Pittsburgh.

00:54I liked him last year.

00:56I got a chance to see him play against the Steelers.

00:58In a primetime game.

01:01And I thought he was dangerous.

01:02And he certainly wasn't perfect.

01:05But I thought he was dangerous.

01:06And I honestly thought that the Steelers had a lot more trouble dealing with him than they did with Aaron Rodgers.

01:11In a similar circumstance.

01:13I've always thought he has great legs and just needed to be in a great situation.

01:18And we didn't necessarily think that Indianapolis was that situation.

01:22But then you think about it.

01:23And Tyler Warren, the rookie tight end, has been fantastic.

01:28Pierce, Alec Pierce, it gives them a target downfield.

01:32They've got a pretty good offensive situation right now.

01:35And Jones won the job controversially.

01:39And now he's showing why he won the job.

01:42It's been a really great start for the Colts.

01:44And I think that it gets a little tougher after this week in terms of what you look at when you look at the schedule.

01:53But if they can go down and get to 3-0, they will be in fantastic shape,

01:58especially in an AFC South, that other than the Colts is 1-5 on the season.
