I knew that the inference was that we took Allen because of his ability to run the show. However, I did not know about the audio- the actual AUDIO file of Bullshit Ballard at some point post draft talking about how Allen was going to be the play caller because he had demonstrated through his FOUR fucking years doing it for the big time program that is Georgia that he was going to slide right into that role. I had not heard this until he played it.

Okay, so Allen didn't get on the field, had an injury, we all think he might not have even been healthy enough to get snaps Sunday. So okay, maybe this isn't as bad as it appears on the surface, it's okay, calm down, calm down, we aren't on the inside, surely there is more to this than he just sucks.

Enter fucking James Bettcher, Indianapolis Colts LB Coach. Yesterday Bettcher took to the mic. When questioned about why Allen saw no PT, he made it clear, he is healthy, he takes a lot of snaps in practice. Yep, he's sitting there on the sideline, why, why do you ask- well according to Bettcher, his fucking direct position coach, in an audio session played on the radio- Allen is not capable of being the defensive signal caller. When he is ready to play, he will get grass time and is expected to play well. The dude fully pulled Bullshit Ballard's pants down in front of everyone, pointed at the unit, and laughed alongside the assembled masses.

This is who is running this shit, this is the incompetence of the fucking GM! JTT, AD Mitchell, JuJu Brents... I believe it's 3 strikes that make an out, how many more fucking whiffs is this idiot allowed!

Insane how bad he is at this shit!

Uhhhhhhh if you watched these LBs for a camp and felt he couldn't perform at least as BAD as the rest of them did Sunday, man fuckkkkkkkk you, get the fuck out of my favorite teams clothing!

Oh and as far as Lou's D's being so complex- at some point it's almost impossible for it not to have reached a point where Bynum on a random Tuesday afternoon practice a couple of weeks ago says "hey coach, I can't get these calls to the guys, we're out of place, we can't do this"... I mean given the debacle that we saw Sunday, that can't be the first time they struggled right? Can't be! So what the fuck, did they just keep watching the same trainwreck happen in camp and just shrug their shoulders and say "ehhhh fuck it, we'll figure it out when the real bullets start flying".

Just soooooooo many things point to this team just being so poorly coached at seemingly every fucking level.

Not buying into the lack of playing time scenario. Most teams sit their starters most of preseason and manage to play well. Lamar didn't play at all and only 5 starters got significant playing time on the Ravens pre season (according to google) and they kicked our ass. Lamar hasn't taken a preseason snap since 2021 and they average 2 starters playing a game in preseason.

I’m not sure why he’s not capable of it now but that points more towards a coaching or system issue than a Ballard issue.

Because if he can do it at Georgia, it stands to reason that he should be able to do it in Indy.

That’s the Ravens and Lamar rarely practices throughout the season so I’d say they’re on a totally different platform than the non playoff appearing Colts for nearly a decade
