The grossly overrated Ballard is no better

Other than LT and RG this team has talent oozing from every position. If this were a PM led team running a PM offense, this team would be 7-1 right now.
Yeah, Ballard seems to blunder 1 or 2 things every off season, but so did Polian. Some of Polian's blunders were drafting Rob Morris, Tony Ugoh. Letting go Jake Scott, Ryan Lilja, David Thornton. Complete inability to draft competent DT's. It goes on and on. You put the right QB in place and it will mask many warts, just ask Pagano. |

I don’t buy the idea that this oline sucks because they got paid, and that Ballard was wrong about them.
It’s coaching 100%, their technique and their toughness has regressed and it’s because the coaches are not holding anyone accountable or working them hard enough. |

These guys are all young, and there are no injuries to speak of, so its perplexing. |

He also completely destabilized the OL by handing the starting LT job over to Pryor and letting Glow walk for Pinter. And then there's the fact that it took him 3 off seasons to draft a replacement for AC. Of course we have no idea if Raimann is any good since he doesn't play b/c the coaches/FO have such a hard on for Pryor, but I guess that's another story. I do agree with Oldcolt that on our WRs and D. WRs have talent but are currently around league average. And our D isn't as good a lot of people on here think it is. They're better than last year and mostly keep us in the game. But they always start slow and haven't been able to make a stop with the game on the line. Even against bad offenses like Wash. |

Also, I should add that Brady being the scapegoat and Strausser somehow still having a job is absolutely fucking mind boggling.

AC retired 1.5 years ago (the 2021 offseason), with a year remaining on his contract. The Colts brought in a 30-year old former Pro Bowl LT (Eric Fisher) coming off an injury to replace him, and drafted Paye in the 1st round to address a different area of weakness. Fisher didn't work out as well as hoped. Ballard drafted Raimann this off season. He could have done more I suppose, but its not as though he ignored the issue and didn't devote significant resources to it. |
