Is that what that means? That you "stay the same" unless you sign high priced free agents? No, I dont think the defense wouldve been better with Arik Armstead playing NT. -
Man, I am realllly starting to get frustrated... I've always liked Ballard.. a lot. I'm typically all for what he stands for: methodical vs rapid, effective vs flashy, sticking to your guns regardless of pressure.. I liked his rare "build the trenches and play physical" philosophy in contrast to today's game, heck, I just like the guy.. I like his swagger and confidence. But wth are we doing, man? WHY is he so okay with having NONE of the top ANYTHING in the game? Year after year.. in a division that's so winnable? Is he trying to win an award for best cap management or is he trying to get over a hump? THESE ONE YEAR DEALS AREN'T GOING TO GET IT DONE. This isn't about Sneed.. frankly I'm not even sure how I'd feel about paying a 28 year old corner so much. I wouldn't mind but that's not what I'm on about. I feel like this was a great FA (and trade candidate) class in positions we could use, and we did NOTHING... while letting our division rivals open a gap. If there was a year to do something that ACTUALLY made a difference, I thought it'd be this year given we actually have the QB. Sorry, had to rant with my morning coffee before I took it out on my coworkers 😆. Go Colts, nonetheless.

So him drafting a bunch of corners and pass rushers over the last couple of years counts for nothing? Saying he doesnt try to improve the pass defense is just blatantly false. Improved run defense absolutely can help pass defense. Also..... We won 4 games 2 years ago. Last year we won 9 with a back up QB. And we didnt sign any high priced free agents last year either. We also traded our best corner. So how did we do that? Improve? Maybe this theory you have that pass defense is that important is just not true? I mean you say our pass defense was bad last year and we still won 9 games, right? The amount of faith you are putting into free agency is completely unwarranted. It just doesnt work hardly ever. Draft and develop is far superior. -

This might be the most boring FA period of Ballard's entire time here....and that's really saying something. -

Rashee Rice is honestly very good. He's their no1 receiver and a lot of the time outperformed Kelce last year as a rookie. They also have two elite CBs (we don't have one) so that allows them to shut down the passing game (as evident by their defense last year and their run in the playoffs). Mahomes is elite, but Ballard didn't even try to get a QB in the draft until 2023 after Luck left. We can blame it on Reich and all that, but it's a fact.
