So that's where I was coming from. But wording probably too strong on my part. I am very happy to have Ballard.

Also just an aside, I thought '99 might make Polian's list with James, Mike Peterson, Brad Scioli, and Hunter Smith (I know he's just a punter), but I looked it up...
Mike Peterson never made a Pro Bowl his entire career? Even the year he was 2nd-Team All-Pro, no Pro Bowl. Even Hunter Smith never made a Pro Bowl which surprised me.

The Colts didnt punt often enough to make it an issue. He was the fastest punter, ask Deon Sanders.
