Colts forum: “Jags overpaid for Kirk”
But, but, but we got cap space and spend our money wisely

we needed this loss to get irsay to do something it needs to be a blow out because he never wants to do anything until the fans fully revolt
Sadly, at most, we will probably see Reich and Ballard called for another “meeting” at Irsays house after team returns to Indy.
Irsay will come out with another bizarre twitter video with some new propaganda slogan.
It will all be publicized but no real action will be taken.

If there is any hope, gotta get points this drive preferably a TD.
Need to get some holes open for Taylor.
Dont see the passing getting going if Josh Allen and co can just pin ears back and rush Ryan

Curious... do you think play calling is good when early reads are mostly Hines, Granson, and Patmon.
IMO, the WRs have been open. But felt the lions share was drawn up for short stuff. And why Patmon as an early read...
And why not Parris on outside and slants...
And another Hines...
East, I would agree that Reich has more than his fair share of faults. Your points are 100% valid, but as you know a HC will only go so far as the talent on the roster. To be clear, I am not sold on him at all as coach that can lead this team to a higher level.
However, I see this team having serious talent issues at critical positions that typically leverage wins and that to me is a Chris Ballard issue.

So far for those keeping score at home,,,
Patmon dropping a good ball in a critical situation adding to ones made by Dulin and Pierce last week which clearly cost us a win.
Out LT Pryor continues to be a liability on pass pro limiting what we can do with a 37 year old pocket passer in terms of attacking downfield.
D-line has 0 sacks and at most 1-2 pressures of Lawrence.
Reich deserves his share of the blame for the play so far this season, but I cannot rationally see how anyone but Chris Ballard should receive the lions share based on his offseason decisions, investments and fruits of those as described above.

The o-line has been awful especially last two drives.
Its pretty simple, when you invest as much as we have in that unit, they simply cannot be that bad in both run and pass blocking
-
Im sorry but Irsay’s ridiculous “All chips in” video looks sillier by the minute.
If this is all chips in, I would hate to see what halfway in looks like.
Maybe next time, instead of making propaganda garbage, instruct your stubborn GM to actually address an impact position like LT so that you don’t repeatedly have drives killed by speed rushers on the opposition.

This is so bad I’m actually laughing. Trevor 5/5
Thats ridiculous and its the same formula everytime quick 3 step drops with the soft zone we love to play leads to easy completions underneath

The D still has problems generating constant pressure when rushing 4 or less.
With the $$ and draft capital placed in the line, that lies directly at the feet of one Chris Ballard

3rd and long and D gives it up. Not good

Ryan needs to know better than that.

Offense is just so uninspiring. Too many short plays that increases the chances of us making a mistake. We need more chunk plays
Thank you. Well said and 100% accurate. The problem is when your GM and coach dont understand/accept that reality and subsequently dont scheme or build the team accordingly.

No pressure on mills
To me, this is a huge issue especially considering the amount of draft capital, $$ that has been invested in this unit.
Ngakoue has had no impact on this game so far and that simply cannot happen if this team to have a successful season.
Also expected better from Kwitty Paye coming into his 2nd year.

A lot of disturbing trends so far
Pierce drop is huge. Game has turned big time since then.
Defense has looked like garbage last two drives.
-
The key is pretty straight forward IMO: stop their run game especially early to allow the Ryan and offense to build a lead.

I don't view it as a misevaluation, Ballard clearly wanted Stafford but wasn't willing to outbid the Rams (and who knows who else) and give up the 3 #1s + that it would've taken to get him - the Rams having a top draft pick like Goff to throw into the deal was a benefit that few other GMs could've matched because if you're trading a Matthew Stafford, you'd better get a starting caliber QB in return.
The misevaluation I refer to is that several times from those who cover the team (i.e. Keefer, Bowen) indicated that Ballard was not sold on Stafford. It is my understanding from those guys say that the Colts never really had any substantial talks with the Lions because of this.
It is also my understanding is that Lions took Goff so that the Rams could make the deal without blowing their whole salary structure. You gotta figure that is probably why an additional 1st rounder was thrown in.
Bottom line, is that when you consider what the Colts gave up to get Wentz (a 1st and a 3rd) was not exactly a cheap price and you look at the track record of a Stafford compared to Wentz as well as how they played this year and what their teams accomplished, it is not the best reflection on Ballard or his player assessment abilities.

Jimmy G is definitely gone.
Shanahan knows he needs a more dynamic QB to keep up.
It once again shows that the D, running game and game manager formula only takes you so far.

Not getting Stafford will not look good for many years..
It is looking more and more like one of the bigger mis-evaluatuon/fails by Ballard.

Jimmy G has a little Carson Wentz streak in him

Our D stinks. Outside of turnovers, they weren't good at much this year. And most of that was driven by Leonard. We gave up the most passing TDs. Our pass rush sucked. We took another step back in rush D too.
This 100%. The front 4 is nowhere near what the 49ers have.

Yea the people that say Wentz is as good as Jimmy G are dreaming lol. He may not have a ton of elite traits but does all the right things and just seems to be able to make the plays in the clutch when they matter. The guy is 31-15, and 4-1 in the playoffs with the 49ers.
I would agree. He is been really good at being decisive and on time with throws especially in critical situations.
Bottom line he makes good decisions and complements what they do defensively well.
Also, 49ers defense (especially pass rush with front 4) is a level above anything we have put out during the Ballard era.

I still think Wentz could be the guy, just get him some weapons and a full training camp, along with a more imaginative play caller.
His inconsistent accuracy, holding on to the ball due to lack of diagnosing pre-snap are not simply going to go awaya

Even he played better than Wentz.

I agree Reich has stunk this game.
Poor script to start. Horrible adjustments. Should have pulled Fisher much earlier. Should have went hurry up early.
I've never said Wentz is elite. He's a complimentary QB that can be very good with a good OL and the right playcalling and support.
He has none of that.
Are the other areas of this team in your opinion good enough to support Wentz as a complimentary QB?
Also, on an unrelated note, do you think the offense would have been better this year if Rivers returned?

Time for everyone on offense to get those numbers....after doing next to nothing for nearly 3 quarters.
This is why stats have to be taken with a grain of salt
