QB play is FAR from the only limiting factor in Ballard’s tenure. Doesn’t believe in the value of veteran leadership, his coaches will set the tone. Leaving gaping fucking holes in the roster to be filled later. Inability to draft, sign or develop players for a pass rush. Constantly putting measurables over playing ability. Gifting players positions they haven’t earned instead of creating true competition. Yes he’s loved by old school football guys because he still believes he’s GM of a team in the 70s or 80s. Grigson sucked at talent evaluation and he was an asshole but his philosophy was much better than Ballard’s. Ballard is a much better scout but he’s a bad GM.

I'm Ballard's biggest defender ...... but if the entire team Colts gets suspended after 3 games and they have to go with 55 semi-pro replacement players for the final 14 games of the season, I cannot defend a decision not to fire Ballard if the Colts fail to go at least 9-7-1 or better in 2026.
