Friday 10/6: Colts vs. Titans Preview, Jonathan Taylor Might Return Sunday, Greg Rakestraw, Matt Taylor, and Jared Stillman Join The Show!
(00:00 - 14:58) - The Wake-Up Call is missing KB today, but Andy and Marc have the mic to talk Colt's home matchup against the Tennessee Titans. Jonathan Taylor spoke to the media yesterday as he is anticipated to return to the field soon. Shaquille Leonard did not practice yesterday. A quick rest in peace to Dick Butkus. Audio from Jonathan Taylor talking about his health. (14:59 - 20:35) - Morning Checkdown (20:36 - 40:30) - More Jonathan Taylor audio after he is involved in his first full practice of the season. Marc gives a memory of Dick Butkus. Andy says that Taylor really had no other option but to talk about injuries since every other route he took in the offseason did not pan out. The way Taylor's situation played out is a win for NFL higher ups. (40:31 - 1:09:38) - Greg Rakestraw is in for his Friday spot. Rakestraw says that whatever they can get from Jonathan Taylor is going to make them better, be it 5, 10, or 20 snaps. Greg says Taylor's best option is to play football no matter what so he can get paid by someone. Colts should keep their focus with him on the short term. Rakestraw thinks Taylor will play in a limited capacity this Sunday. The Colts are slightly spoiled with the quality of play that Zack Moss and Anthony Richardson have provided the team this season. Callers to round out the segment. (1:09:39 - 1:28:17) - Jared Stillman of Nashville's 102.5 The Game, joins the show to give the Tennessee perspective on the Colts/Titans matchup coming up on Sunday. Stillman is a big fan of Anthony Richardson and thinks the Titans should have gone after him. The Titans primary problem, according to Stillman, is that they give up too many big plays on defense. They are worried about Richardson being able to burst out a big touchdown run. Stillman says the Colts are "a bit of a bozo franchise" to outsiders looking into the organization. The Colts seem to be overrated every year heading into the season according to Stillman. (1:28:18 - 1:30:06) - Touch and go tease Matt Taylor's appearance in the next segment. (1:30:07 - 1:56:32) - The radio voice of the Indianapolis Colts Matt Taylor joins the show to give some inside perspective on the Colts ahead of Sunday's game. Matt believes that Jonathan Taylor's appearance on the field when/if that happens on Sunday will be a "melting pot" of emotions. Matt thinks Taylor's a 50/50 shot to play on Sunday as of right now, but if he is ready to go the team will trust him with the ball right off the bat. DeForest Buckner being on a limited pitch count might have really hurt the Colt's defense last week, his importance to the defense is being shown. Taylor thinks that the game between Indianapolis and Tennessee is going to be physical. A quick talk about the documentary covering the Colts comeback against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. (1:56:33 - 2:03:15) - Pop Quiz (2:03:16 - 2:15:42) - Sweeny's Six Pack of Picks and more Jonathan Taylor Audio.Support the show: https://1075thefan.com/the-wake-up-call-1075-the-fan/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
