Zak keefers tweet was wrong about starters playing against Detroit. Reich said in his presser today they won’t play against Detroit because of joint practices.

I’ll be in Kentucky for a week starting tomorrow, so I’m hopeful it cools down. My family was going on and on for weeks about how hot and humid it has been. 

Supposed to be pretty nice.

I feel the same but maybe it stems from years of good kicking from Adam (except towards the end of course).  

I guess so.  Going from the goat to this little guy seems like a big change.

Yes no need to play starters against Detroit when they have practiced all week long with them.

What helps me endure a day of heat on my front porch, while lounging in my 70's polyester coach shorts and faded Hawaiian shirt, is a tall mojito in the hand of my saucy wench.

That makes sense

If you are going from maybe the greatest kicker of all time to any other kicker (unless it’s Justin Tucker) it’s going to seem like a big change.

I'm so happy about this! I know there are going to be injury-worries, but we haven't been ready for week 1 for 8 seasons now. It's about time they took it seriously!

The Colts take this serious every year.   The lack of success does not equal a lack of seriousness.    That’s why, in part, they changed the starting time of practice from morning to noon.   That didn’t come out of the blue or flipping a coin.    It’s why Matt Ryan has been running up-temp practices.  He’s trying to keep everyone focused on details.   And the front office has been supportive of Ryan in everything he’s done.  
Peoples careers are on the line.   That’s about as serious as it gets.

My guess is it’s a mix of how Ryan wants to do things and Irsay lighting a fire under Reich. 
 

These slow starts have become something of a joke and it needs to end if we want to be anyone in this league.

 

More playtime for starters in the pre-season is obviously to get the team ready for week 1.
