For starters, I think that we all need l Kray l to continue posting here on ColtFReaks ...... in my rat's ass of an opinion, Kray is the most objective poster on the board.

Draft Ashton Jeanty and wait for Kyle Pitts to be released, then pick him up.

I'm a big Jonathan Taylor fan, but I would take a Rookie Ashton Jeanty in a second over Taylor at this point in his career ...... I doubt that he'll be available by the time that the Colts pick, though.

So either we have a very flawed offensive philosophy, or we have a historically poor pass game RB/TE group.

These stats are embarrassingly terrible.

The 7 RB/TE's have combined for 114 targets on 72 receptions, with 4 TD's.

WTF are we doing?

I think it is a flawed system. There is too much talent for us to be so inefficient on offense. Part of it is predictability. There are a lot of runs up the middle on first down. Defenses recognize tendencies, and this is a big one for us.

Second, there are too many runs up the middle no matter what the down and distance is. Taylor is dangerous in space, but we refuse to get him out into space.

Third, and this one I mentioned in the game thread, Shane does not do a good job of covering his mouth when calling the plays. Every team has someone upstairs watching the coach.

Fourth, every play is out of the shotgun. This limits the offense, too.

Shane has to take a long look in the mirror this offseason and figure it out, or he will be done here.

I personally think it’s talent. We need a good TE. My vote is for Tyler Warren since he can play inline or out and is a good and willing blocker too. Right up Ballard’s alley. A pass catching back would be nice as well. We need more chain movers. AR should improve his short game in the offseason. Add some vet pieces as well who can stabilize things when stuff goes wrong go and balls bounce badly.

Steichen will use them if he has one. He did in Philly.

There is a HUGE problem with talent on this team. We have a few really good players, and BUCK could be considered a star player, outside of that, a lot of JAGS. The depth is shit. When a front line guy goes down, the performance at the position just plummets- for example Grover out and Bryan in. For YEARS Ballard has shot blanks at the DE position, and all he's hit was some moderately successful players- who are seemingly very injury prone. As EVERYONE has pointed out, the TE room is a clown show.

Ballard needs to go, period!

As for Steichen, he certainly has had some moments of brilliance but in a lot of the day in day out play calling, he is not very effective. Last week, to me, he looked panicked as the game started to head in Denver's direction. I think he gets lost in the moment and loses focus on things that have been effective. For some reason he seems to revert to a footing that AR can be a gunslinger from the pocket and go on huge completion streaks- right now, HE CAN'T DO THAT CONSISTENTLY!

So combine the two, and this is a pile of shit!

To me it all starts with getting rid of Ballard. His mentality needs to go, his way of evaluating talent, needs to go. Everything about his approach screams middle of the road contentment. FUCK THAT GUY!
