  1. get the run game going. Another touchdown might be what we need to have a nice finish in this game instead of a high blood pressure ending like usual.
  2. who is to say Steichen would come for a new gm? Did you ever even consider that fact? Steichen bought in to Ballard’s process and philosophy and came here. matter of fact, had he fired Ballard, it would have been perceived as potential organizational issues, which may be the case on Irsay’s part. Keeping Ballard and sticking to a logical (not to say not without mistakes or error) process indicated stability to go after a high profile coaching candidate like Steichen
  3. you changed the entire argument, when you were called out for bringing Roseman in to the conversation and using incorrect information to try and prove your opinion. You know in debate, changing the original conversation to something that’s more distracting, like someone else’s perceived emotions, is called a red herring. You are doing great at it. Signs of a losing argument.! 👍
  4. if you think this makes me emotional in any way, you are as off as you are on the stats you use to support your pitiful argument. im perfectly chill watching the colts play.
  5. no colts fan should tear him down. Build him up! Hope he goes and balls out somewhere that fits him better. That’s called a win-win situation for everybody.
  6. LET’S. GO! what a play. What a quick striking drive. THAT’S COLTS FOOTBALL.
  7. your opinion is irrelevant though. Your opinion obviously isn’t the opinion of the Irsay family. And rightfully so. You can’t even get the facts right to support your argument. Not even close.
  8. not one person thought they would come close when Wentz down in ‘17. It was really a miraculous run. but that’s not the discussion at hand, but you keep on using it to prove a point that isn’t even relative. The whole point is that they didn’t fire Roseman after a similar start. They kept to the process and it paid dividends. They didn’t fire him after winning 22 games in 3 years following the super bowl win and getting a top 5 pick/trading their #2 pick qb away, they stuck to the process and now they have an elite team.
  9. Todd Bowles special. Exotic blitzes from the linebackers are going to be common today. Good drive otherwise to tie the game. Reset and get a good stop here.
  10. First and goal from the 1 and coming up with a banged up qb and only 3 points is a huge win for the colts defense after a rough start. Let’s get rolling on offense.
  11. in the first seven years, when everyone is bringing Ballard’s record in as the main discussion, yes, there is plenty of comparison. You cannot use the last 6 seasons of Roseman’s career as gm as substance when comparing Ballard’s first 7 seasons. they both fired multiple coaches. They both utilized vet qbs. Ballard has a playoff win under his belt when Roseman did not. It’s not hard to comprehend, you are just bringing fake information in to make a point that doesn’t exist.
  12. And his record isn’t bad. I don’t know why they keep pushing that narrative. He’s had a couple bad seasons, like all gm’s do. It’s netted some good draft classes. It’s part of the checks and balances of the league. It’s hard to get premiere players on roster when you are fielding competitive teams consistently and drafting mid to late first round. It just doesn’t happen. The top 8 players of any draft are the sweet spot. When you don’t need a qb, it’s even sweeter. I would love to see what Brett Veach and Andy Reid would do in the next 5-7 years if Pat Mahomes walked away. My bet is very similar, or worse to what the colts have done the last 6 seasons.
  13. you are making stuff up dude. Roseman was hired in 2010. Philly won the division in 2010 and 2013.. They went 56-58 in his first 7 seasons which includes losses in the wildcard playoff round in ‘10 and ‘13. They made the playoffs twice with zero wins in his first 7 years. In between Super Bowl runs? They made the playoffs three times winning just 9 games, including winning the division one of those years. 1-2 in the playoffs those three years. Went 4-11-1 in 2020. I don’t dispute his eagles team now is very good now, but to say his first 7 years was far better than Ballard’s in any capacity is hilarious. They didn’t kick it off until year 8, in Pederson’s second year there…. With a second year Carson Wentz looking like an mvp, And an incredible run with a backup Nick foles.
  14. he might not. Then again, no one may. It’s naptown. Peyton Manning isn’t growing on trees.
  15. of course he is. He has twice as much time as gm and a Super Bowl under his belt. Possibly another this year. but in the first seven years, comparatively? Not much difference. 2018? and then his franchise qb that he had drafted and built the roster around the first two offseasons retires.
  16. I didn’t say he was although I’d love your crystal ball, or delusions of thinking you know the future. I was simply referring to your comment that he won a Super Bowl in the same amount of time, which he definitely did not, and when you realized that, you responded with the above. lol.
  17. in the same amount of time? Howie roseman was hired in 2010 bud… let’s peek at philly’s record by year. 2010- 10-6 with Andy Reid as coach 2011- 8-8 “” “” 2012- 4-12. Andy Reid still coach 2013 10-6 chip kelly 2014 10-6 chip kelly 2015 7-9 Kelly fired 2016 7-9 Pederson 2017 13-3 Super Bowl with pederson 2018 9-7 2019 9-7 2020- 4-11-1 pederson fired 2021 9-8 sirianni hired 2022- 14-3 Super Bowl loss I think some people need to take a step back and realize what successful gm’s did. They were given time, they were allowed to make mistakes and hire/fire coaches. Half this board seems like they would fire Ballard tomorrow and start from scratch not realizing what a giant mistake that would be. Stick it out and cheer for your Colts. We’ve got a gm that has put together competitive teams with mediocre qb play, and we might finally have our franchise qb. Go blue
  18. Grigson did nothing… he inherited a left tackle in Castonzo, a pass rusher in Mathis, a receiver in Wayne and the easy decision of drafting Andrew luck. What a joke. he also spent more wasted money on guys that never did anything for this franchise and some here try to convince others that Ballard is a dummy for not spending boat loads of money…
