00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:13,119

00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:20,400
Speaker 1: they were back on the practice field today getting ready

Speaker 1: for Week fifteen of the NFL regular season. This week

00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:26,520
Speaker 1: it's a Saturday afternoon game. I hook up with the

Speaker 1: NFL Network, and that feed's going to be carried locally

14
00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:43,599
Speaker 1: here on Fox fifty nine on Saturday afternoon. Colts come

15
00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:45,320
Speaker 1: into the game. They're four eight and one, they're on

16
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:48,280
Speaker 1: a three game losing skid, and there's four games to play.

17
00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:50,960
Speaker 1: Following the Colts having the bye week last week, and

18
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:54,800
Speaker 1: interim head coach Jeff Saturday on Monday told reporters that

19
00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:58,280
Speaker 1: Matt Ryan will continue to operate as the team's starting quarterback.

20
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:01,400
Speaker 1: Saturday used the bye week and the week off last

21
00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:04,039
Speaker 1: week to evaluate the roster on a big picture level

22
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:07,480
Speaker 1: and concluded that Matt Ryan will remain quarterback one, Nick

23
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:10,280
Speaker 1: Foles will be the backup, and Sam Ellinger will be

24
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:13,320
Speaker 1: the third quarterback, and Saturday believes Ryan gives the Colts

25
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:16,119
Speaker 1: the best chance to win and also noted that Ryan

26
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:18,800
Speaker 1: has remained a good leader in his steady force inside

27
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:22,240
Speaker 1: the Colts locker room, taking accountability for his mistakes and

28
00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:25,040
Speaker 1: holding others to the high standard that he has for himself.

29
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 1: Saturday also met with the media today and confirmed that

30
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,760
Speaker 1: Colts tight ends coach Clayton Adams has left the team

31
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 1: to take over as offensive line coach at Stanford, So

32
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:37,480
Speaker 1: that means the Colts only have seven offensive coaches still

33
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:40,280
Speaker 1: on the staff, so very much understaffed at this point.

34
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:43,720
Speaker 1: And Jeff said today that assisting offensive line coach Kevin

35
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:47,319
Speaker 1: Y and wide receivers coach Reggie Wayne will combine to

36
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 1: take over the duties of overseeing and game planning for

37
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:52,560
Speaker 1: the Colts tight ends for the remainder of the season.

38
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:54,880
Speaker 1: So four games left for the Colts throw on the

39
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,680
Speaker 1: outside looking in on the playoffs. So what was Jeff

40
00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 1: Saturday's message to the team today with only four to play. Yeah,

41
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:03,320
Speaker 1: you know, we talked about the focus obviously after the

42
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:06,000
Speaker 1: bye week, and uh, you know, don't be denied what

43
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:09,400
Speaker 1: what you should be doing, right, and that means go

44
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:11,640
Speaker 1: take advantage of all the matchups that you have. And

45
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 1: so I've challenged each guy individually. UM, just talked about

46
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:17,239
Speaker 1: where we need to be, what we need to see,

47
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:21,400
Speaker 1: um from each guy in particular, and the progress we

48
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:23,600
Speaker 1: want to see being made. And again we've made some progress.

49
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 1: Obviously the the Dallas game as the last one we had.

50
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:27,919
Speaker 1: That's an awful taste in your mouth, the way we

51
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,680
Speaker 1: finished that game. But um, you know, we we have

52
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 1: to we have to continue to get better in certain areas.

53
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:35,119
Speaker 1: And everybody has a job they have to go get

54
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:38,240
Speaker 1: better at. But job one is beating Minnesota. And and

55
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:41,040
Speaker 1: you got a four game season, and uh, you know,

56
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:43,240
Speaker 1: when I look at this, we're very capable of winning

57
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:45,400
Speaker 1: all four. But you got to start in Minnesota, right,

58
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:47,200
Speaker 1: And they they got a lot to play for, playing

59
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 1: for a division at their place, getting beat by Detroit.

60
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:52,600
Speaker 1: You know, like I said, nobody feels sorry for in

61
00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:54,760
Speaker 1: this league. They're gonna they're gonna come at you. Um,

62
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:57,760
Speaker 1: you know, full tilt and so expect their best and

63
00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,359
Speaker 1: then go show them what your best looks like. That's

64
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,040
Speaker 1: Jeff Saturday on the team's mindset. With four to go,

65
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:05,560
Speaker 1: What about inside the locker room? How are players and

66
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,240
Speaker 1: leaders for the Colts in the locker room handling the

67
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:11,000
Speaker 1: final four games of the season. Matt Ryan's been through

68
00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:14,200
Speaker 1: seasons like this before, and he's got some pretty good perspective.

69
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:16,919
Speaker 1: You never know how things can shake out. And I

70
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:20,680
Speaker 1: think the message, you know, to all of the guys is,

71
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:24,840
Speaker 1: you know, everything we do matters though, and you know

72
00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:27,560
Speaker 1: what's what you do and how you perform and what

73
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 1: you put on tape, you know, is your resume to

74
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 1: hang around, you know, in this league and um, you know,

75
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:38,160
Speaker 1: so there's there's a level of professionalism and personal pride

76
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:40,840
Speaker 1: that comes with that. And then you know also you know,

77
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:42,480
Speaker 1: fighting for the guys in the locker room that that

78
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:44,760
Speaker 1: you've put, you know, all of this hard work in.

79
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:46,600
Speaker 1: You know, maybe we haven't seen the results we would

80
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:48,640
Speaker 1: have liked to have seen, but you're still going through

81
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:50,640
Speaker 1: it with him, and we owe it to each other

82
00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 1: to go out there and perform our best. That's Matt Ryan.

83
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 1: He's going to be looking to play some clean football

84
00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:57,840
Speaker 1: down the stretch. With four games to play for the Colts,

85
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:01,680
Speaker 1: he has thirteen interceptions on the season, eighteen total turnovers,

86
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 1: both league highs, and his fourteen fumbles on the season

87
00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 1: that is a single season Colts record and a career

88
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:10,880
Speaker 1: high for map and as a team, the Colts lead

89
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 1: the NFL and fumbles twelve players have at least one

90
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 1: on the season. The Colts are also last in the

91
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:20,560
Speaker 1: NFL on turnover margin minus fourteen, and their twenty six

92
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:23,800
Speaker 1: turnovers on the season have led to ninety three points

93
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,680
Speaker 1: for their opposition. That's the most in the league. On

94
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:28,919
Speaker 1: the defensive side of the ball, that unit, guided in

95
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,960
Speaker 1: part by Zaire Franklin. He had a great message today

96
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:34,680
Speaker 1: about how he's handling the last four games and why

97
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:37,200
Speaker 1: everybody else in that locker room should follow his motto.

98
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:39,680
Speaker 1: For one, we all evaluated by what we put on tape.

99
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:42,800
Speaker 1: You know, when you watch film, no one's gonna be

100
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,920
Speaker 1: in the other defensive room, offensive room, and some other

101
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:48,719
Speaker 1: team explaining oh yeah, well, you know, they had laws

102
00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:50,680
Speaker 1: four in a row, so that's why he's not running

103
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:52,960
Speaker 1: to the ball, or that's why this is not happening.

104
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:54,600
Speaker 1: You're judge based off of what you put on film.

105
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 1: This is all our jobs, like all our careers are

106
00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,280
Speaker 1: based off of what we do. So just based off

107
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:02,880
Speaker 1: of that, you should your job. But you know, honestly,

108
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:05,279
Speaker 1: I just leave by you know, how I posted the game,

109
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:07,240
Speaker 1: How I'm in them in a building, how I go

110
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:09,800
Speaker 1: about you know they're working, you know, obviously, just still

111
00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:11,839
Speaker 1: encourage and still trying to have fun. Look, it's still

112
00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:13,840
Speaker 1: a game that we get to play. When they say

113
00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:16,200
Speaker 1: kids game for a king's ransom, you know, never forget that,

114
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:18,760
Speaker 1: Never take it for granted. Um could be having to

115
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 1: go do something else. So um yeah, season then go

116
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:23,479
Speaker 1: where we wanted. But we still get to play football,

117
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 1: and we want to take advantage of that because when

118
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:27,960
Speaker 1: you home watch some playoffs, it's gonna hurt and it's

119
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 1: gonna stay. So you better take advantage where you still

120
00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 1: have a chance. And that's Zaire Franklin here on the

121
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 1: Colts Daily Update ninety three five and one oh seven

122
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,880
Speaker 1: five the fan and Zaire part of that Colts defense

123
00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 1: that's looking to shake off the fourth quarter in Dallas

124
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:43,480
Speaker 1: last time out. Obviously, the Colts offense put the team

125
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:46,400
Speaker 1: in some bad spots in that game. But listen, anytime

126
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 1: you give up thirty three points in a quarter, you've

127
00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:51,400
Speaker 1: got some some proving to do. And obviously the Colts

128
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:53,400
Speaker 1: defense is gonna have a chip on their shoulder against

129
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:56,400
Speaker 1: the Vikings this time out on Saturday. The Colts are

130
00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 1: also looking to get some more turnovers and create some

131
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:01,880
Speaker 1: more takeaways too. Was out the season. Last year, the

132
00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:05,080
Speaker 1: Colts finished second in takeaways, but only have twelve so

133
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:07,840
Speaker 1: far this season. In fact, they only have three of

134
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:11,760
Speaker 1: them in their last four games, and linebacker Bobbio Kaka

135
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 1: this week was asked about why the takeaway numbers for

136
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:18,400
Speaker 1: the Colts defense are down. It's an emphasis, you know,

137
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:20,360
Speaker 1: I think that's what we did a really good job

138
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:22,760
Speaker 1: of last year. You know, you just emphasize turnovers over

139
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:24,920
Speaker 1: and over and over, and we do a good job

140
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 1: of it this year. But it's really just execution. That's

141
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,120
Speaker 1: kind of been our biggest thing this year. Like, you know,

142
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:33,240
Speaker 1: we go out, we have a good practice, we have

143
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:35,680
Speaker 1: good meetings, we focus, but it's it's just kind of

144
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:37,440
Speaker 1: the lack of execution that bites us in the end.

145
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:39,800
Speaker 1: So just figuring out a way to, you know, just

146
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 1: make it happen on game day. Key for us on

147
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:45,600
Speaker 1: defense is really just forced fumbles, and that's what Shaquillo

148
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:47,359
Speaker 1: did such a great job of last year. You know,

149
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 1: you can really get a force fumble on any play,

150
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:52,719
Speaker 1: any tackle opportunity. So just making sure we emphasize that,

151
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:55,560
Speaker 1: you know, going forward these next four games. That's Bobbio Kaka.

152
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:57,280
Speaker 1: He's going to be a free agent at the end

153
00:06:57,320 --> 00:07:00,560
Speaker 1: of the season at his linebacker position, probably have the

154
00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:04,239
Speaker 1: best year for him since joining the Colts in twenty nineteen.

155
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:06,560
Speaker 1: He was a rookie then out of Stanford and with

156
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:08,800
Speaker 1: the Colts out of the playoff picture here at the moment,

157
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:12,000
Speaker 1: how is he balancing the last four games of the season,

158
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:14,400
Speaker 1: knowing it's a big off season ahead for him, but

159
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:16,680
Speaker 1: also wanting to continue to play at a high level

160
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:19,320
Speaker 1: here in the months of December and January for the Colts.

161
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:21,480
Speaker 1: Really was going to help me the most going into

162
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:26,080
Speaker 1: free agency and just figuring out situation for next year

163
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 1: is you know, finishing out these four games strong and

164
00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:31,400
Speaker 1: putting together a good resume and just letting teams know

165
00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:34,120
Speaker 1: this team, other teams the league, just let them know

166
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:35,960
Speaker 1: the type of player I am. Towards the end of

167
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:38,080
Speaker 1: the season, when you know things are in this type

168
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,280
Speaker 1: of situation, So you know, I'm just excited for these

169
00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:43,960
Speaker 1: next four games. That's Bobby o'karaka again on balancing pending

170
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,400
Speaker 1: free agency and putting his best foot forward in the

171
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:49,120
Speaker 1: final four games of the season for the Colts. Another

172
00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:52,239
Speaker 1: player looking to close out the season strong Alec Pierce,

173
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 1: the rookie wide receiver. He's got over five hundred receiving

174
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 1: yards this season and he owns the three biggest catches

175
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:00,880
Speaker 1: this season for the Colts, all over four yards. He

176
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:04,200
Speaker 1: ranks first among all rookies this season and yards per catch,

177
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:07,640
Speaker 1: and he's also sixth in the entire NFL with fifteen

178
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:10,760
Speaker 1: point nine yards per reception. And this week he talked

179
00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:13,680
Speaker 1: about his evaluation of himself and what he's made of

180
00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:16,640
Speaker 1: his first NFL season so far. Yeah, I think in

181
00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:18,200
Speaker 1: consisten is a good word for it, you know. I

182
00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:21,520
Speaker 1: think I think I need to become better at being consistent.

183
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 1: I think I definitely flashed that I can do it

184
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:27,640
Speaker 1: in spurts, but I need to, you know, make it

185
00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:30,080
Speaker 1: a more consistent thing where where I can be someone

186
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:32,800
Speaker 1: that they trust in and when I give them most

187
00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:35,520
Speaker 1: tough throws and have him be able to win one

188
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 1: on one and you know, get open and move the chains.

189
00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:41,760
Speaker 1: That's rookie wide out Alec Pierce on his rookie campaign

190
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:45,120
Speaker 1: so far. The Colts also elevated another rookie today they

191
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 1: signed tight end Nicola Kalinich to the fifty three men

192
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 1: active roster from the practice squad. They also waived wide

193
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:54,880
Speaker 1: receiver key Key Qt, and the team also signed wide

194
00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:58,800
Speaker 1: receiver Robert Foster to the practice squad. So Kalinich has

195
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,400
Speaker 1: spent time on the active roster and the practice squad

196
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:04,520
Speaker 1: this season. He's been active in three games as one start,

197
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 1: and was signed to the practice squad after spending the

198
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:10,760
Speaker 1: offseason workout program and training camp with the Colts. So

199
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 1: with Qt no longer on the roster, you can probably

200
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:16,800
Speaker 1: expect to see more of Dallas Flowers returning punts as

201
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 1: he did against Pittsburgh and Dallas the last couple of

202
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:21,680
Speaker 1: times out and he's a rookie out of Pittsburgh State.

203
00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:24,320
Speaker 1: He's also done a nice job returning kickoffs as well.

204
00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 1: Here in the last handful of games. Three of the

205
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:29,800
Speaker 1: final four opponents for the Colts, they've got winning records

206
00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:32,960
Speaker 1: and it starts on Saturday, against the Vikings. They check

207
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:34,800
Speaker 1: in at ten and three on the season. They are

208
00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:37,560
Speaker 1: leaders in the NFC North. A win for them on

209
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:41,600
Speaker 1: Saturday would clinch their first division championship since twenty seventeen.

210
00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:44,440
Speaker 1: That's because everybody else in that division is under five

211
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:46,760
Speaker 1: hundred at the moment. That's why they can clinch this

212
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:49,280
Speaker 1: early on in the season. They're gott to buy first

213
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 1: year head coach Kevin O'Connell. He spent the last couple

214
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:54,600
Speaker 1: of years as the offensive coordinator for the Rams and

215
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,720
Speaker 1: won a Super Bowl last season. He needs one more win,

216
00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,880
Speaker 1: in fact, to tie Dennis Green for the most by

217
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 1: a Vikings head coach in their first year on the job.

218
00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:06,400
Speaker 1: Green win eleven and five back in nineteen ninety two,

219
00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:09,880
Speaker 1: and O'Connell can also join Green as the only Vikings

220
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:12,080
Speaker 1: head coach to take their team to the playoffs in

221
00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:15,880
Speaker 1: their first season. The Vikings could possibly go fourteen and

222
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,560
Speaker 1: three at best, which would be their best record since

223
00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety eight, and Minnesota might be one of the

224
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:26,640
Speaker 1: most deceptive elite record wise teams the NFL has seen

225
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 1: in a long time. They set an NFL record this

226
00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:33,360
Speaker 1: season by winning their first nine one score games. Nine

227
00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:36,040
Speaker 1: of their ten wins at this point have been by

228
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:39,400
Speaker 1: eight points or less, and they've won five games by

229
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:42,680
Speaker 1: five points or less. However, they've been blown out a

230
00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:45,240
Speaker 1: couple of times. They have three losses by an average

231
00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:48,280
Speaker 1: of twenty one point six points per game, and they

232
00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:51,960
Speaker 1: are somehow seven games over five hundred with a one

233
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:55,960
Speaker 1: point differential on the season. The Vikings. On offense, they've

234
00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:59,280
Speaker 1: got some elite talent, Kirk Cousins at quarterback who's uber accurate,

235
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:04,160
Speaker 1: Dalvin Cook at running back, young superstar wide receiver Justin Jefferson,

236
00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 1: reliable on tough possession wide receiver Adam Feelin. On offense,

237
00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:12,720
Speaker 1: they ranked tenth in points scored in seventh and passing. Defensively, though,

238
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:15,320
Speaker 1: that's where they've struggled right now. They rank thirty second

239
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:18,120
Speaker 1: in total defense and they've allowed at least four hundred

240
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:22,240
Speaker 1: yards in five straight games. That's a franchise record. So

241
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:25,040
Speaker 1: that's the quick skinny on the Vikings going into this game.

242
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:27,240
Speaker 1: We'll have more on the Colts and Vikings matchup all

243
