The Colts have given up more than 500 yards in two straight games. In the Super Bowl era, only the 2018 Bengals have done it three games in a row. nbcsports.com/nfl/profootbal…

This is just one of the many examples where louder voices are overriding the voices of people who truly know what’s happening because others have bigger megaphones. My advice: Choose who you listen to (on any story) wisely.

You’d know that she and nose tackle Grover Stewart are legitimately super close. You’d know that her relationships with players is akin to those they have with equipment managers. You’d know she blends in because she’s humble and listens. (More)

I wrote my first story on Carlie over 12 years ago. I’m in the building every day. I have seen hundreds of interactions w her and players/coaches. If you understand the context and relationships, you’d better understand why her approach works. (More)

As I continue to get replies on my Carlie Irsay-Gordon tweets, it’s occurred to me that part of the problem is who is being listened to. Myself and others on the ground are being drowned out by people elsewhere who don’t actually know what the hell they’re talking about. (More)

The Giants spent the week making calls on QBs after Jaxson Dart’s injury, and league sources believe it’s a matter of when, not if, they acquire one — possibly as soon as Monday.
That and much more in The Sweep Insider Notebook for Week 3:

Indianapolis Colts tight end Mo Alie-Cox on team owner Carlie Irsay-Gordon wearing a headset on the sideline:
"It doesn’t bother any of us, and I don’t know why it bothers people who aren’t in the organization because … it would affect us, not them.”

but C.J. Stroud's play-action rate is only 20% (26th)
Houston must step up play action on Sunday

The Colts (2012-25) and Broncos (2016-25) have won 5 playoff games in 24 seasons combined without Peyton Manning.
And that's after drafting a generational talent in Luck.
They criticize Peyton Manning for "only" winning 14 playoff games and reaching 4 Super Bowls in the 17 seasons he took a snap.
Colts since 2012: 4-5 in playoffs (12 seasons)
Broncos since 2016: No playoffs (8 seasons)
4 playoff wins in 20 combined seasons
Context matters.
