One other point. The pool is much larger when it comes to pro QBs.  The pool is much smaller when it comes to GM choices.  I'll say what Ballard has said. When you have more darts to throw at the board you will hit on more picks. I think the same analogy can be used when choosing a GM. There are far fewer darts to throw.  How many GMs are in the hall of fame? How many QBs? -

Name the decent GMs in the league then if that's true. I bet you could name more decent QBs tha you could decent GMs. And it's funny, because all these decent GMs cant find franchise QBs. It's not that they dont exist. They just dont find them. -

We all know it takes the right GM the right Coach and the right QB to be a perennial SB contender.  In my opinion it is a lot harder to find the tight Coach and right GM than it is to find the right QB. I feel like it is easier to measure the overall talent and leadership skills of a QB than it is to find a Coach and GM who work well together. A Coach who knows how to lead the entire team well.  I voted GM. He has built this team to where everyone can lean on each other unlike we have seen before. Even when Manning was here there was only 1 year I can remember where both offense and defense did really well. And that was 2005 when we were undefeated until we faced Brees and the chargers.  Ballard has built the most complete team I have ever seen in the Indy era. And that includes HC.  Theres no GM in the league that I have faith could find a good QB like I do with Ballard. In the end i could see him trading 6 draft picks to move up to draft a starting caliber QB.  Now I am of the opinion that Tom Brady is a system QB with a great GM/HC. We have seen several NE QBs have success in that system and go elsewhere and have little to no success. Unlike a lot of backups in this league. I'm not saying Brady is mediocre by any means. But he is a system QB nonetheless.  My point is, I can see Ballard finding a QB who can fit THIS system. There is nothing wrong with system QBs. After all. Brady has how many rings?   Also. I'm taking nothing away from Andrew who I believe is an elite QB. I am just saying having a GM who can assemble a scouting department like we have, coaches, and players like this, is most definitely more important than any QB. Sustained success. I will rejoice when I see Ballard stay here after Andrew retires, because I believe he is just that good. QBs retire a lot sooner than GMs do.  In Ballard I trust. -

I'd rather call it the "derby" offense. Â Since we'll have all those fast Thorobreds on the field. Â Â Â Â Gitty-up! Â Hey, "Gitty-up" is still better than "build the monster." Â Edit: . I gave you a hard time (jokingly) about 2,threads (nascar and indy) , i replied, now i realize it should have been in the other thread. Â Who's the dumb-donkey now? Â ME ! Â I crack myself up. -
Last season is not a career and no matter what stats are posted no one would put Luck in the top five-no one.
