HtownColt Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Like how he set up Pollard right before he bounced it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
backshoulderfade Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 I was a big fan of Ballard. He looked promising early this season. Him and Bradshaw give us a pretty formidable RB partnership. Hopefully our line play improves this season. If T-Rich improves then our offense is going to be unstoppable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColtJ82 Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Funny thing is that our line actually opened a hole and then Vick bounced it outside instead of using the hole. By doing so he was able to pick up a lot more yardage. Trent has neither the vision or speed to break a run like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColtsHoosiersBB Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Richardson is faster. Just a lot more indecisiveFaster at what? Picking his nose and scratching his butt after the ball is snapped? There has to beat least one guy on the roster that is the focus of my ire every season and it looks like T Rich willbe that guy 2 years running.

Indianapolis-Colts-Fan Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Vick Ballard is a good running back. Love him have ever since draft day. But Richardson is our starter for now because we traded a one. We have 3 RBs who can do some awesome things this year. One thing I like about Ballard and Bradshaw is they have shown an ability to run behind this horrible line. Ballard more than anyone else. If we can get a line with these three guys, this team is going to explode and the nfl won't know what hit them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
throwing BBZ Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Trent is faster than Vick Clearly TRICH is slower on the football field. Who gives a____ what he can do at a track meet, he has sucked as a RB in pads.Ballard can get outside, TRich, 3 seasons in and with his "faster legs", can`t figure out how to do it. What a ___mess! I didn`t see Coltscrean having Any problem comprehending at this level. JMO of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valpo2004 Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Trent has faster straight line 40 speed. There, better?He did run indecisive also. Almost like a nervous rookie overthinking. I agree with this. That was part of his problem, he was over thinking it all of the time. Maybe Bradshaw can teach him to just find the hole and hit it.

lollygagger8 Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Man if Vick comes back 100% healthy, and Bradshaw remains healthy, our backfield is going to be dangerous! Oh and if T-Rich doesn't pitter patter and just runs, he will be good too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is by far his most memorable play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColtsHoosiersBB Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 I am rooting for all our guys to run hard but Ballard did quite well in his rookie season compared toT Rich's sophomore year. I will give the guy an offseason to learn the playbook and figure it out inthe beginning of the season, but if he runs like he did last season, I will hemorrhage from my eyes,nose and ears watching him take valuable snaps from our other runners!

Moncrief Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Ballard reminds me of Dominic Rhodes during his #33 years. I'm definitely all right with that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Horseman Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Second run posted in this thread against the Browns was the best. Nice decisiveness, vision, and making someone miss at line of scrimmage. Offense has nice staple of weapons for coming season. Cheers to Holmes panning out and Thomas being healthy.
