     When the QB drops to pass our 4 man d-lines job is to get to the passer.

    Grover means we are rushing with 3. Now his backup is even worse, rather than at least somewhat better. Seems like buffoonery. Not complicated.

     Franklin should be out of the game in passing situations. Ditto.

     Ballard/Dodds secondary build looks hopeless today. Their big 4 year development project with Blackmon, he is decent, is a bust. Let him walk because he isn't the guy to build a really good D with. It's sad.

     Is Speed going to be better all-around than Franklin? You going to pay him $10M for our March to the SB? 

     Ballard/Dodds have a vision for mediocrity. Our wheels are spinning in the mud.

     Kenny is good, but if he has to chase someone across the field he is toast like a rookie. We are not going anywhere anytime soon with our roster, so investing in players that bring a certain level of mediocrity so we can make another run at 9-8 doesn't bring real hope to the Ultimate mission.

     Nothing complicated about this. 

     

     

    So - more of the same?  Your post is a bit ironic. Don't ya think?

    You are even more astute than I realized. Life is all about energy transfer. We ride the highs as long as we can, and we weather the lows until we rip the next wave! Energy is our most overlooked commodity. I have to reserve a lot of it on the forum because I use it all up on game day lol. 

    One's goal should be to achieve Homeostasis.  :^)

    I don't think so but whenever I make a post judging someone's fandom, I get there are different kinds of fans and I have no right to say who is a fan or isn't. Common Sense tells me who are the diehard fans though. 

    Good post.  Diehard since 1967, here.

    It's sad but there a handful of people that want to see him fail because they wanted Levis instead. They would rather be right than the Colts be good. SMH.

    Are they really Colt’s fans, then?

    This is yet to be seen.   We would not have won 9 games with AR last season, so Minshew was better, in my opinion.  AR has his chance in 2024 to show his stuff.

    Interesting assertion with no empirical data to support it.  My unsupported assertion is that the Colts would have won 9 or more games with AR healthy for the season.

    Okay but… what in Jones wasn’t interested in Indy? This isn’t madden where you can just throw money at an FA and they’ll sign with the highest bidder. There’s other factors often overlooked. We just aren’t privy to all information and thus, people just assume we ignored this player or that one

    Why are you being so combative ? 

    Good question!

  7. I understand the perceived value of a having a veteran in the QB room - I really do.  That said, I'm tired of the carousel of mediocrity - all these non-starting-quality veterans constantly bouncing around and milking the cow. The Colts had a pretty darn good veteran last season...and still missed the playoffs.  Keep Sam and draft QB3 in the mid-rounds.  JMO.

  8. My favorite part of this counter-Colts take is that lennymoore24 tossed the stink bomb into the elevator and skulked away, never to respond to follow-on comments.  Well played, LM24, well played.

    It would be awesome.  I would give it a try.  I read where one of the biggest needs for the Cardinals is DT.  I would be okay offering two 1sts and Buckner and Pierce and being ready to add a couple of 4ths if need be.  Something like that.  They could do what we did and extend Buckner as part of the deal.  I think Dayo would do a good job in Buckner’s spot.  He’s no Buckner right now but who is.  I love Buckner but he is entering is age 31 year.  If we ever thought about trading him the time is now and leading up to the draft.  We might be fine with extending him so that kills that idea of course.  A trade up in the draft doesn’t always have to be draft picks.  He is one of our blue chip players so there could be interest.  We know Irsay would love MHJ.  Worth having a conversation with the Cardinals I would think.

    Two firsts, Buckner, Pierce and two fourths…good lord.

    I've been a Ballard defender, but this fact is a massive indictment on his tenure. The second Luck retired, we should've put some random kid in at QB to get the #1 pick. I was always against his plan of putting in old used QBs to try and win. I would rather have had one terrible season over seven years of disappointment.

    Water under the bridge.  What’s done is done.  Don’t cry. Over spilled milk.  
     

    That’s all the cliches I can think of, at the moment.  It’s 2024.
