00:00For another matchup that panned out for one team over another, more so Anthony Richardson

00:08and company, you got the Colts taking on the Chicago Bears and the Colts coming out on

00:12top 21 to 16. I mean, regardless of Caleb Williams passing performance, you're talking

00:17about 363 passing yards, two touchdowns, but two interceptions is going to kill you. This

00:22offensive line that he's working behind is atrocious. But what did you see in this matchup

00:26outside of that fog that he has to continue to steer through? Yeah. Also a few bad decisions

00:36by Anthony Richardson, not just him and Will Levis, but we saw a lot of young quarterbacks

00:40today, especially at that 1 p.m. window. Yeah. Make a lot of bad decisions when it, when

00:44it, you know, interceptions, forcing the ball here, forcing it there, not necessarily doing

00:48it. You know, great game on the ground from Jonathan Taylor. He's just going to continue

00:52to be their best option. If Anthony Richardson is going to be bringing it at a hundred percent,

00:57like I'm not a hundred percent completionary, but like, he's not going to be bringing it

01:00on a consistent basis when it comes to being efficient in the passing game. We have good

01:05passing or pass catching options from the Colts, but no one seems to be taking charge.

01:09While Michael Pittman, I believe is still the most talented receiver of that bunch.

01:13If they're not going to be passing at a high rate, only 20 passes for Anthony Rich in 167

01:17yards. There's never going to be a high volume play that we can trust from the Colts passing

01:21game. We can get a touchdown here or there. Then once they get Josh Towns fully work back

01:25in, since this was his first game of the season, it's going to be a bit of a mystery. Jonathan

01:30Taylor, still the answer when it comes to the Colts, Caleb Williams, as I said, after

01:33the Sunday night game last week, there are times when he looks bad and it's no fault

01:37of his own because the offensive line is so bad. That happened again today, but he's actually

01:42like overcoming some of that where he looks good on some of these 363 and two touchdowns

01:47is awesome. Big game from Roman Dunes, a big game from Colt Comet. That's what we want

01:52to see from them. Their running game is terrible. And that's partly because their offensive

01:57line is terrible. So the bears are going to be in these wacky shootout games and they

02:01can't run the ball. It means the ball's going to be in Caleb Williams' hands, which I think

02:05means attempt props, passing attempt props for Caleb Williams could be something I focus

02:10in on over the coming weeks because they need to pass the ball because they're just, they

02:14can't run the ball. They're trailing this, that, the other thing. They just got to let

02:18merit out.
