0:00.0	Hey, what's up everybody?
0:13.3	Welcome into Tom Carman's Patriots Talk podcast.
0:15.7	Happy Thanksgiving, the three and nine Patriots.
0:18.2	They have the five and seven Colts on Sunday.
0:20.6	The only teams Indy has beaten since September of the Dolphins, the Titans, and the Jets.
0:26.2	Colts are one and four in their last five. But before we get into this game, the news of the week,

1:16.2	this week, he had a snap against Miami that was beyond imagining. He looked like a stunt man
1:21.7	diving out a window, and he completely fanned on the individual across from him. So why was he
1:27.3	here?
