Kevin & Query - Thursday 8/10 - Live from Colts Training Camp, Darrell Baker Jr, Mike Chappell, and Field Yates are All on the Program.
(00:00 - 28:12) - The show kicks off with Colt's cornerback Darrell Baker Jr. joining the show. Marc and Kevin ask him questions about being born in Panama and coming over to the U.S. and his life in Georgia prior to becoming a pro. They talk about his teammates, who he is learning from, who is helping him get settled with the team, and who talks the best trash. News breaks mid-segment that practice will be moved inside during training camp today due to poor field conditions. Kareem Hunt did not leave with a deal in Indianapolis yesterday, so the Colts signs Hunt Lee from Philadelphia. (28:13 - 32:54) - Morning Checkdown (32:55 - 45:27) - A recap of the events taking place in Maui. The Colt's first depth chart was released for the pre-season yesterday. Marc and Kevin go back and forth on some of the names the Colts will be playing, and some the team will be facing. Colts defense takes center stage of conversation in regard to what players are running out of time to prove themselves as being valuable parts of the defensive unit. (45:28 - 1:14:33) - Going over the Matt Ryan conversation on Adam Schefter's podcast. Ryan talks as if he is surprised that running backs have been neglected in the league for so long. Kevin and Marc go over the franchise tags for each position in the league. The franchise tag cap is expected to rise from 10 to 13 million in 2024. More Ryan and Schefter clips played about Ryan's feelings on if Jonathan Taylor will play for the Colts this season or try to sit the season out. (1:14:34 - 1:34:27) - Someone called in and actually wanted to talk Notre Dame basketball. Producer Sam's microphone is finally working. More talk of Kareem Hunt leaving Indianapolis without a contract last night. Colts practice was moved indoors. Kevin is hoping to hear more from Colts Head Coach Shane Steichen today on what kind of minutes starters will play in joint practices and the pre-season. (1:34:29 - 1:34:27) - More talk about Anthony Richardson starting. Should he be getting the hits that a quarterback would usually be taking in the regular season now that he is no longer going up against pros instead of college players. (1:34:28 - 1:43:04) - Pop Quiz (1:43:05 - 2:06:44) - Mike Chappell of Fox59 joins the show to talk updates on the Colts. Chappell has been on the scene at Colts training camp just as much as The Fan's Kevin Bowen. He goes into depth on all the Colts roster moved over the last few days. Picking up running backs and cornerbacks to prepare for the regular season. When is the last time a player like Jonathan Taylor rehabbing off site and away from training camp was viewed as a good thing? The last thing for Richardson to prove himself to Chappell is to have him take some contact against professional level players. (2:06:45 - 2:20:40) - ESPN's Field Yates closes out the show with Marc & Kevin. Yates says there has been a lot of front office talk about the Jonathan Taylor situation. Colt's owner Jim Irsay may have hurt Chris Ballard's ability to trade Jonathan Taylor with his comments on Twitter/X. Yates has heard there is a market for a trade with another team and Jonathan Taylor, but as time rolls on the ability to get maximum value for him is becoming slimmer. Value wise, Indianapolis needs to be looking for a player plus a draft pick for someone like Taylor. Shifting to Fantasy Football how should fantasy players treat Jonathan Taylor as an asset given the uncertainty of him playing. Field Yates gives his core beliefs for a fantasy football draft.Support the show: https://1075thefan.com/the-wake-up-call-1075-the-fan/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

K&Q Full Show 07-28-23
(00:00 - 14:15) - Kevin and Query is live on the scene today from the Indiana State Fair's opening day. The show begins with a lot of State Fair admiration and memories. Sports talk starts with the daytime drama that the Jonathan Taylor contract talks have become. Kevin & Query discuss some Jim Irsay quotes in regard to Jonathan Taylor. (14:16 - 16:56) - Morning Checkdown (16:57 - 42:48) - Greg Rakestraw joins in to close out the opening segment. A quick review of everyone's Dairy Bar experience at the fair. Colts talk immediately turns back to Jonathan Taylor's contract situation. Rakestraw believes that Taylor will eventually be signed to a multi-year deal, but no longer than 2-3 years at most. How long will the Colts need to look at Anthony Richardson at quarterback before they dedicate to putting pieces around him as their starter. A grilled cheese is delivered mid interview. The United States Women's soccer team just needs a draw to guarantee their next step into the World Cup. Greg talks about how the rest of the world is catching up to the United States due to them taking the sport a bit more seriously, and the American rosters turn over. (42:49 - 1:05:31) - The Jonathan Taylor talk starts to revolve around his previous injury and his ability to come back as a strong running back off of the injury. All the ways the Colts could structure a deal that keeps Taylor here without having to use the franchise tag. Could Jonathan Taylor afford to sit out the year? Jonathan Taylor's image might be getting hurt due to these contract negotiations. Is firing his agent a possibility? More review of some Stephen Holder tweet's from yesterday. (1:05:32 - 1:12:32) - Mike Chappell from CBS4 calls in to the show as he is driving to his 40th Colt's training camp. Jim Irsay tweet's out just as the interview begins that the practice is being moved indoors due to bad weather. Chappell says this is a bad situation for the fans as it severely limits the attendance of people at the practice due to limited space. The interview is cut short due to rainy weather. (1:12:33 - 1:20:50) - Segment 3 is shortened up due to having to move inside because of the poor weather. The state fair delayed the opening of their gates today. A lot of talk about weather effecting Colts practice. Which happens first, Glenn Robinson III returns to the NBA or Carson Wentz returns to the NFL. (1:20:51 - 1:44:40) - Mike Chappell rejoins the show to begin the 3rd hour.Jonathan Taylor needs to get practicing sooner rather than later to prove his worth according to Chappell. Coming off this injury, there is no telling how well he will be able to perform if he isn't on the field and that could affect his contract negotiations. Social media has played a large part in Taylor's negotiations with him liking and unliking Tweets. Long-term means different things to different people and positions, for a running back three years is long term. Mike Chappell's phone cuts out mid interview. (1:44:41 - 1:55:47) - Pop Quiz (1:55:48 - 2:09:26) - Jake is solo in the final segment as Kevin had to take of for Colts training camp. Jake has cheese sculptor Nancy Baker as a special guest. She is at the state fair sculpting a 1280 pounds of cheese for the Indiana State Fair today. She has been sculpting cheese for nine years, this is her first time representing the American Dairy association.Support the show: https://1075thefan.com/the-wake-up-call-1075-the-fan/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
