00:00All right, this is the Colt and Steelers. Colts have already scored a touchdown.

00:19They converted on a couple fourth down plays in their last drive.

00:25So, this one is, um, they started their own end zone and then they, um, moved out.

00:39They since moved out of the end zone.

00:44Or, yeah, they're close to their own end zone and they've since moved out.

00:55Second, Kansas City at plus 83, 33 points more than the Kansas City Chiefs in point to direction.

01:02Good math.

01:04Uh, I definitely did it with a calculator at my hotel room this morning.

01:07It's all right, you didn't have to get that up.

01:09Jones feeds it.

01:11It's another underneath pass.

01:13It is complete to Amir Abdullah, the veteran.

01:15And they pick up a few yards on the play, setting up another third down tackle made by Peyton Wilson.

01:27Colts are the only team in the NFL that scored 20-plus points in all eight of their games.

01:32In fact, they've scored 30-plus points in six of their eight games.

01:36That's the first time they've done that in franchise history.

01:39Colts take over deep in their own territory after stopping the Steelers following the special teams gap from Indianapolis.

01:53And Mike Tomlin notoriously doesn't go for it on fourth down.

01:57He shows it there.

01:59Now his defense has to repay that by not letting the Colts go 95 yards.

02:04Jones from his own end zone lets it fly.

02:06And well-synchronized to Alec Piers.

02:09He's been feeding it to Piers so far in his first quarter, 12 yards, as we check in with Evan.

02:14Yeah, we saw Alex Highsmith and Darius Slay as the flag is down.

02:18Both go down in the previous series.

02:20Both are back out on the field.

02:22It's a left-take job on Alex Highsmith's foot there.

02:24And Darius Slay, the right hand.

02:30Darius Slay with the butt-take of the right hand.

02:33It's a good sign that they're both out there.

02:34I might take on some sideline duties.

02:37We'll just mix this whole thing up.

02:38People up and people.

02:40Oh, stay here.

02:43Stay in your lane, man.

02:45We don't talk about much over there football.

02:48So the Colts...

02:49That's funny.

02:51That's funny.

02:51We have it with four minutes to go in the first.

02:54It's a first and 13 after the penalty.

02:59Taylor in the backfield.

03:01Handed to him, Taylor.

03:02Yep.

03:04Mr. Go-To.

03:05He's the NFL's leading rusher.

03:08And he's putting up ridiculous numbers.

03:11He's now being mentioned in circles with some of the all-time greats based on the stats that he's produced.

03:18Not just this year, but in his career.

03:20Yeah, and you look at some of the stats that he's put up, and when they give you the graphics for it, they say,

03:25This guy won MVP when he did this.

03:27This guy won MVP when he did this.

03:29Jonathan Taylor has rightfully so put himself in the MVP conversation.

03:34And he's in the backfield with another guy who should be in that conversation with Daniel Jones.

03:38Yeah.

03:39I agree with that.

03:40We talked earlier about how quickly teams are beginning to ball out against the Steelers.

03:58That's a perfect example of it.

04:00The ball is just out of the quarterback's hands so fast.

04:02So on that first drive, Cam Hayward gets a couple of batted balls.

04:06That might be what you have to do to combat these quick throws if guys are over behind.

04:11So it's another third down for Indianapolis.

04:13They've been so good on third down, making defenses pay.

04:19And this one is to the outside.

04:21And another conversion.

04:22It's down for the catch and run.

04:24Yep.

04:25Needed six.

04:26Got seven.

04:27Drive continues.

04:28It's going to be an out route right at the sticks.

04:34And just perfect timing.

04:35Step and throw by Daniel Jones to downs on the sideline who picks up the first down.

04:42It's just, we talked about how easy they make it look.

04:46And even when they get themselves into third downs, it feels like there's no panic, no problem.

04:52Yeah, I noticed that too.

04:56Jones picked the hand up.

04:57Jones, by the time, is going to throw it to the sideline.

05:00Alec Pierce, the intended target, incomplete.

05:05You can always count on Sundays with the NFL on CBS and Paramount+.

05:09So Mike Tomlin's team is going against the number one offense in the NFL,

05:17the number one scoring team in the NFL.

05:19They've got the best point differential in the NFL.

05:22All right, and that point differential, plus 116.

05:26Second place is Kansas City at plus 83.

05:2933 points more than the Kansas City Chiefs in point differential.

05:34Good math.

05:34I definitely did it with a calculator in my hotel in this morning.

05:38It's all right.

05:39You didn't have to get that up.

05:40Jones feeds it.

05:42It's another underneath pass.

05:44It is complete to Amir Abdullah, the veteran.

05:47And they pick up a few yards on the play, setting up another third down.

05:51Tackle made by Peyton Wilson.

05:58Colts are the only team in the NFL that scored 20-plus points in all eight of their games.

06:03In fact, they've scored 30-plus points in six of their eight games.

06:08That's the first time they've done that in franchise history, the first eight games of the season.

06:15Tyler Warren right there.

06:16Let's see if he chips on his way out to the route or a two-three releases.

06:20Third and long, Abdullah shifting back.

06:23Click clock down.

06:24Go long.

06:24They get the snap off for Jones.

06:25Testing time.

06:27It's going to be short.

06:30Look at all those steel defenders over there.

06:33Extra yardage.

06:36And the Colts' punting unit is going to make their way on the field.

06:40Let's take a look here, see if it was short.

06:42It certainly was.

06:44Good tackling, sure-handed tackling there.

06:47Big, big stop there by the Steelers.

06:49Feels weird to say in the first quarter, but the way that this Colts offense has been going this year,

06:54any time you get them off the field is huge.

06:56Echols was in there on the wrap-up for a New York Jet in his first year with the Steelers.

07:02And Regalberto Sanchez, who has not been name-checked very often this season.

07:07And the Colts fake it!

07:10Indian Atkins!

07:11Wow.

07:12I wasn't expecting that.

07:14It's enough for the first down.

07:17They pick up three.

07:21Just a quick snap right up the middle.

07:24The Wildcat.

07:25Lean your way forward to a first down.

07:27That looked like a Wildcat play.

07:31A stop going over to the bench to grab some Gatorade.

07:35And now stepping back out onto the field, having to stop this offense once more.

07:39So you've got a backup safety.

07:41Rodney Thomas II that takes the direct snap.

07:44This is a team that plays with extreme confidence.

07:51The coach has conviction in what he wants to do, and it's showing every single Sunday for the Colts.

07:57They've got the lead at the end of one.

07:58So you've got them walking about to keep you alive.

08:02Now in the Christian week...

08:11What are you waiting for now?
