Of course, we need help in free agency at multiple positions but Ballard won’t be willing to do whatever it takes to make that happen. And then he’ll say well, we just don’t have the cap space.

This isn’t going to work. The Colts need a hard reset. If Chris Ballard had what it takes to build a winning team, he would have done it by now.

Bookmark this post if you want but i guarantee you Jim Irsay will be forced to blow the WHOLE thing up at this time next year.

All Jim has done now is delayed ripping off the bandaid.
I was thinking the exact same thing about a tiger doesn't change its stripes. Ballard will do what he does and it will be the same old shit. I've been out on Ballard for a while and when I saw Colts fans on the internet (not here) posting he would be shit canned I just laughed.

Irsay has backed Ballard to the point where I feel like he has a permanent residency here. Sometimes I think Jim overcompensates with the "stability" because his dad was such a loose cannon. Regardless of that, Ballard was going to get time to develop Richardson and we are going into year 3, so we will see.

I don't have much hope for Richardson tbh. I've watched a lot a football over the years and I feel like I've never seen a QB as erratic as him pan out. Yes, he is young and raw, but I don't see it. I keep seeing comparisons to Josh Allen's development but I don't think the talent is there.

I don't post too much and I don't like to post negative shit, but I just needed to vent.
