Summary

Colts linebacker EJ Speed joins Query & Company fresh off a win yesterday for the Colts to discuss what has changed the last two weeks with the Colts run defense. Additionally, Speed admits he really didn’t know about his string of games with at least ten tackles until the media asked him about it, highlights the benefits of playing an offense growing up, applauds the job that Chris Ballard has done bringing players in with good character that has allowed players to fill in for starters, and explains how he and Zaire Franklin complement each other as players.
