  1. And if they do have all 53players on vet minimum and the don't win a SB then they will want the GM fired.
  2. Not a huge PFF fan but they know a heck of alot more than I do about NFL position ranking but judging best at each position is very subjective and I have seen him ranked higher than they have him. Like asking 20 people to rate the top ten best pizza parlor in Indy and you are not going to get everyone rating the same. The thing about Sneed is he is so talented Spagnuolo has him on the outside, in the slot and in the box depending on the situation. I think each coach may have different traits they may be looking for in a CB so as I said I think it is very subjective. Bottom line is I would love to see him in a Colt uniform next year and many years to come!!
  3. Not surprised you are concerned about paying him 23M but I question your statement that he is not a top 10 CB by anyone's standard. I know I don't count but he is by my standard.😉
  4. Maybe the trade is done contingent on the physical.
  5. Gave up a 4th if Fields plays 51% of OF play or 6th if he doesn't. Chicken feed!
  6. So the choice is a great safety or corner or a backup DT? I would say 99.9% of Colt fans would want that. Are you saying all things being equal Ballard chose a backup DT over a great safety or corner? He had that choice?
  7. 2006, you've been around here long enough to know that anything the FO does you should be able by now to know the guys that will disagree. I sure you're not surprised!
  8. I hear you 88 but this goes on every off-season during FA, the draft and then all season long. I was thinking that was why they put up the Ballard Grievances Thread but it didn't make a difference. It is what it is.
  9. Just got onto this sight and went to the Colts FA thread and thought I mistakenly got on the Ballard Grievances Thread. Ballard could trade MAC for Mahomes and several on this sight would be critical of that move. Ballard or for that matter I believe no GM would ever be accepted by many on this sight. Very disappointing coming to read about my Colts only to find a bunch of supposedly Colt fan being critical of every move the Colts make.
  10. I see nothing wrong with what AL did. He was getting his butt kicked due to the franchise not building a decent OL. Luck is a very intelligent guy with a beautiful and successful wife and a beautiful new baby and was smart enough to know his own body and knew if he kept taking a beating it could effect his brain and cripple his body which would effect his future. He not only had millions to retire on but the brain to earn well in society. Yes his decision hurt the franchise but we will survive. He made a huge decision to retire. I appreciate his decision as a person who has had a double knee replacement and a couple back surgeries that has affected my quality of live as I didn't know when to back off. To think this is a precursor to any future Colt QBs that get married and have children is a little silly. Marriage and having children have a tendency with most men to buckle down and work harder at their jobs. I think AR, coming from his background will be one that will work his rear off to assure that his children will have a better life than he did like I and I think most men who were not born with a silver spoon have done. God bless he and his family.
  11. No thanks. On the downside of his career and the price would be prohibitive.
  12. I like Rick and got to know him from the gym we both belonged. Good guy to talk to and knows football. I haven't listened to the to the podcast but from the early comments I read I have concluded,(1) Rick has a vendetta with Bradley of some kind and (2) I don't agree that he as a Colt color man on some Colt broadcasts should be so critical of any player or coach publicly to the extent he appears to be. Do I think we could do better at DC, yes but we could also do worse. Unfortunately our DBs are more cover 2 or zone guys which Bradley wanted for his D and most are not the best at man coverage in my uneducated opinion and we would have to adapt to man coverage till we replaced our current DBs. Seems that Steichen is pleased or Bradley would be gone.
  13. Do better? We need his talent and 2 more like him to be a real contender. Most top contenders have as many as 3 good options at WR (excluding KC). He is our best and a good receiver but is not at the top of WR in the league.
  14. I wasn't a Raimann basher last year and don't feel I am bashing Freeland to say he hasn't look good the last few games. Hope everyone is back and playing great next year but I am concerned about the future of Kelly and Smith. Nothing would please me more than to see both back next year and playing at pro bowl caliber level.
