What do you believe the Colts are getting in their new quarterback this season?

I believe they're getting a guy that's gonna help them take it to the next level.

You know, I fully expect the Colts toe win the A F C South this year with Carson Wentz leading this team.

When Carson was at his best, which was the Super Bowl year in Super in Philadelphia, he had a balanced run attack.

He had weapons in the passing game and an offensive line that could take care of business upfront.

Indianapolis has all of that, But beyond that, there is a personal relationship between him and head coach Frank right, but also press Taylor, who they just added from the Eagles this year, that will be able to have him in a place mentally that he trusts them and he's able to go out there and play well.

Carson Wentz, at his best, is an M V P player.

Am I saying he will be the M V P this year?

I'm not necessarily saying that, but what I am saying is that if he plays at a high level, which I fully expect with this type of balance around him, the coast will take it to the next level in the playoff.

Well, those are two different things.

And so I'm going to sort of drill down with you a little bit on that.

If I can.

It's one thing for him to play.

Well, it's another thing for him doing what he was then.

Is he going to be that guy because he was the M v p.

Of the league that year before he got hurt?

Is he gonna be that guy in this offense story?

Yes.

You're gonna see that step and dominate Frostburg.

I stand here on behalf of Dan Olasky leading this fan club.

Carson Wentz is going tobe all out this year, and I can't wait to Revenue Dominique space later on down the year.

But seriously, the balance is there, and he's gonna play Well, that's what I was looking for.

Nick.

Tori, Tori, I love you.

And you are really good at this.

And I'm so proud of you.

It upsets me how good you are at this already.

However, let me give you a little advice when you're sitting starts with.

I agree with Dan Orlovsky.

You're wrong.

Like that's a bad way to start a conversation.

That's a really bad way to start a conversation, so you don't need to learn much from me, but I hope you internalize that little tidbit.

But as Faras Carson Wentz, being M V P caliber like that is a stretch, I think this situation is perfect for Carson Wentz.

I am higher on Carson Wentz or the idea of Carson Wentz right now than I have been in a long time now, I was gonna say, in part because of but no, totally because of the situation that he's entering because they are not going toe, ask him to be M.

V P level quarterback.

They're not expecting that from him.

He's in a situation where a lot of other things around him will take the pressure off of him.

If we've done a lot of psycho analysis of Carson Wentz, whether that's fair or not, I don't know.

But I think that is the most important part, and he's going somewhere where he feels comfortable with the coach.

He feels comfortable with some of the players.

He feels comfortable with the protection.

I think that takes a great psychological burden off of him, and we may see a better version of Carson Wentz.

But he was like the worst quarterback in the league last year.

Now you're talking about he about to be M v P level Dan Orlovsky level nonsense, Marcus, I'm pushing back on you because I like you yelling.

Yes, bottom line is this team is that good?

I mean, the Eagles team he was on in 2017 was good enough to win a Super Bowl without him.

This team is that good.

Why is it unrealistic to think in a similar offense with the same coaching, that he can't be that good again?

Because he's not going to be asked to be that good.

G.

They're not going to put this on Carson Wentz plate.

Look, we got this whole thing wrong with Carson Wentz.

We Carson Wentz 2017 m v p season.

Great.

But when we look at Philly and we look at what we expected from Carson, Wentz was to put that team on his back and carry him, and at times he did.

But now we have this year as a sample size offensive line was bad.

Talked about the weapons, the injuries to the Y received all of that stuff we know played into Carson Wentz, not having, ah level of success, but Carson Wentz had a lot to do with that as well.

And I think Frank right understands that as well as anybody.

He looked at the situation in Indy, and he said, We do not have to have Carson Wentz come here and be a M V P level quarterback.

We need Carson Wentz to being a above average quarterback, and we feel like everything else around him is good enough for us to make noise in the playoffs and potentially be a Super Bowl contending team.

Here's what I do believe.

I do believe because of what I saw with Baker Mayfield that Carson Wentz will be better this year.

I also believe that there is something to Carson Wentz mental game when it comes to him being around Frank, right, and that familiarity.

So I expect him to play well.

But when we start talking about M v p like, I think the M V P.

Through 40 48 touched How many touchdowns the Aaron Rodgers throw this year?

Y'all 48?

Y'all think Carson Wentz is gonna be in the conversation for an M V P when the mother, that dude in Kansas City, that dude in Green Bay and D Shawn Watson potentially being on another team.

Russell Wilson as well.

And Carson not gonna be asked to do as much for his team as they are.

And Tory, you and Dan Orlovsky gonna say he's gonna be the M v p r.

He gonna be in that conversation.

Please stop it.
