thanks for putting that together. I watched/listened and my takeaways were:

Ballard (and probably reich) are not happy with the wentz experiment. The "make the layups" comment was very telling imo. He mentioned asking the honest and hard questions, about stability at QB position and although its a team game that particular position is crucial. On the flip side, ballard also talked about our rush to cancel someone based on a failure and not to make emotional decisions. This makes me think they will take a hard look at replacing wentz but will most likely come down to what options are available to them.

He is scared of burning JT out. Mentioned that to win the QB will need to make passes, cant strictly rely on run game. Also specifically talked how hines needs more touches, even quoted numbers.

The comments on LT means to me they will not be handing fisher a long term contract.

I did not really like his comments on the receivers. He seems to think more highly of the non-pittman receivers than many of us.

I thought the moment he mentioned Luck, quickly realized the situation and joking said he wont field any questions, was pretty humorous.

Although he said there will not really be a FA philosophy change, I felt like he realizes he may need to dip into that well a bit more.
