OFM…. For your consideration.
Ballard didn’t make this decision, one of this magnitude, without talking it over with a good number of people. I’ll list them.
Jim Irsay Owner
Shane Steichen. HC
Ed Dodds. ASST GM
Morocco Brown. PERSONNEL VP
Ballard does not make such a big decision without maximum input from those around him. None of the guys I listed found out about the decision by reading the Indy Star newspaper. Ballard is collaborative about these things.
I give you my word, I’m not yanking your chain.
Also, why should Ballard care that Leonard is going to help Philly win? So? Who cares? They’re in the NFC, so it’s the best scenario for the Colts.
he should care that he gave an elite player away for free

one of ballards worst moves he will help them win

Howie Roseman, Nick Caserio, John Lynch, and Brett Veach.
nick caserio is by far the best, a gm who can turn a bottom team into a force in the afc south in only 2 seasons is far ahead of the rest

You realize Minshew is viewed as roughly a top-8 backup QB. That’s top-25 percent. And Steichen worked with him for two years and wanted him. I think Ballard gets credit for signing Minshew. But maybe that’s just me?i like minshew, glad we have him

Browning had a better game, not even debating that but 2 points I want to make:
1. With Browning, it was just 1 game.
2. Let's not act like Minshew didn't play good on Sunday and he has had several good games this year. On Sunday his stats and game winning drive are just facts, not opinion to back up what I am saying. To say he played awful is a bad take plain and simple. Really made no sense to me that you would say that. Awful is not even close average.
To finish, I have never once said that Minshew was a great or very good QB. That he would lead us to a SB win, I have just said he has played good football at times for us. It just gets old when people trash our players in here even after a win or said player helps the team win gets trashed. Saying someone is awful is trashing them. Then the same people want to put opposing players of teams we are getting ready to play on a pedestal.
minshew is what ballard has provided for us this season, we have to ride with him

I am still shocked how bad the jags defense looked. Even if Lawrence had not got hurt jags still might of lost that game.
cincy has good offensive skill players

Yeah, that's been my beef with the H2H(ESPN argument)
It should only be applicable if all teams have played each other and pending those results.
At the end of the day whether we are 6 or 7 right now, is inconsequential.
we still have to win most games to make it, after jax lost their qb texans now should win our division

shane needs to get creative instead of running up the gut 2 times then pass

Running so many go routes and now it's time for them to pay off.
Downs has disappeared.
Richardson will be good with Pierce, and yes Pittman is finally proving himself. He is a stud.
pittman is our number 1

I would take it.
QBs Colts face the rest of the way out:
Browning
Trubisky/Rudolph
Ridder/Heineke
O'Donnell
Stroud
stroud is the best of them

To the bolded part. I thought the same thing. In the 1st quarter, that was definitely PI on Hopkins .
maybe that makes up for the browns game

This is the type of game that makes me excited for next year. I think AR will compensate for a lot of Minshew deficiencies. Great win by the Colts!
shane needs to design more roll out plays for minshew it would also help our run game and batted balls

Let's give some shout outs to the defense. 21 sacks in the last 4 games. That's over 5 sacks a game.
looks like we get more sacks without grove

So very sloppy and shouldn't have been close but absolute clutch plays when we needed them. Thankfully we get Grove back next week. Our D will look a bit better.
Offense needs to finish in the redzone. No excuse to go 1/5.
hopefully gus learned to not go soft and bring pressure

I like AR and badly I miss him, but we need Minshew. He is our best option right now, even if he is a bit Wentz-esque at times
minshew is a turnover machine
