    By far, the best post of this thread so far.  Congratulations.

     

    For the first time in 7 years, we appear to have the top three most important positions secured......and under rookie contracts.  That's the way you build an NFL team.

     

      

    Problem is there is a team in our division with all 3 spots secured with proven talent. We still have some question marks but it’s progress I guess

    exactly. And why? Because the year with manning on the sidelines, we couldn’t win… So they had to release manning and all of Polian’s players to start new with Andrew Luck. what was freeney’s contract- like 20% of the entire cap? lol… 

     

    we don’t know what Polian would have done without Peyton Manning. The colts could easily be elsewhere, and Peyton Manning would have still been a dominant football player. Just like he was in Denver. 

    3 straight superbowls with the Bills and built an expansion team to a contender in 2 seasons before coming to the Colts. It’s been 8 years of Ballard and we are 54-60-1 with a 1-2 playoff record

    Ballard’s teams with Peyton Manning = same success. 
     

    that’s my opinion and I’m sticking to it. You can disagree all you want. Manning has his statue outside for a reason. Polian would have lasted half as long as Ballard has without him… 

    Polian resume pre Manning was still levels above Ballard

    Is Sneed that good? If so, it was a good trade. The Titans gave up nothing. I wonder why Sneed did not have other suitors if he is that good.

     

    I cannot believe how upset everyone is about not trading for him.

    Yes. Allowed 1TD as primary coverage player. He does get penalized a lot because he’s very physical with receivers

    Not so sure about "failing."  The team had a winning record and was potentially one terrible throw from the backup QB away from winning the division.  The team roster is not horrible - it's likely 3 positions away from being even more competitive than in 2023.

     

    As George Constanza said to the beached whale..."Easy Big Fella."

    We played 10 back ups/rookie QBs last season. The schedule isn’t like that this year
