It's such a shame seeing Luck's career wasted.  With a real team, he's good enough to win multiple Super Bowls. 

 

To date, it's not Ballard's fault, obviously, but over the next year, I do think you need to consider taking a few chances and speeding up the process/the rebuild.  The guy will be 30.

Not to rehash stuff from the past, but Grigson depleted this roster of talent.

 

Ballard gets next year from me. But I also agree, spend some money and get creative.

Yeah, as I said, to date, it's not Ballard's fault, and I like most of what he's done, but no one wants to see Luck's career wasted.  Gotta take some chances, I think

Luck turning 30 is not like he is retire in a couple of years. Hell, Brady is 42 I think.

Just stop with the doom and gloom before you see the final results of what Ballard is doing.

Agreed it's after every game the same stuff. Ballard has explained his approach to building this team. He is doing it just like he said he would.  He isn't going to go nuts in FA. Those who are waiting for that will be disappointed. 

 

As as far as this game. We are a very young  team that has been devastated by injuries. We had some of our top players out on a short week playing in a place few teams win. We are adding talent maybe not as fast as some would like but it's happening. Guys are going to continue to grow. We need to add more talent and I doubt anyone is more aware of that then Ballard. 

 

Luck as previously stated is going to be 30. He has his best football in front of him. The guy looks like he's back in HS  Did you hear his scream and see his flex the touchdown after we got it to 24-17?

      Chris Ballard: Redfining what Success means in the NFL

      By NewColtsFan · Posted

      Hmmm.   ”Healthy excuses will be hard to come by.”    Really?   Richardson, who had less than a thousand snaps in college, then had roughly 200 snaps his rookie year.  There’s one.   And Houston has Stroud who had a great rookie year.  Aren’t most media predicting Houston and JVille ahead of Indy this year?  That’s two without any trouble.     I just think insisting on a division title because a fan thinks it’s time doesn’t stand up to much scrutiny.   Sorry, just my two cents…. And often not worth that much.

      For me absolutely it does. If Richardson stays healthy excuses will be hard to come up with. As positive as I am with Ballard at some point we have to start winning. He bet on himself by bringing in his own home grown talent this year, what he does at safety in the coming month and a half has me worried as well. We were so close to winning the division last year with a back up QB that my expectation is winning the AFC south this year.    If they make it into the wild card game and lose then the seat is just as hot for me. If they advance further and make a Cinderella run then I’m fully back on board.

      3 straight losses for the Reds. They have their moments where they play well. But it’s time to be real. They aren’t a playoff team and will never be as long as the Castillinis own them and David Bell is manager.    De La Cruz is fun, but his career will be wasted on this team.

      Am I reading this correct?   You think Ballard’s seat gets hot if the Colts don't win the AFC South?  Really?   So if the Colts don’t win the south but make the playoffs Ballard’s seat still gets hot?    Just making sure I understand your viewpoint.

      Yes, yes he did. If you scroll back to old Pagano post you’ll see how much blame he got. I definitely hold Pagano is regards to letting Luck down on the offensive side of the ball. I also see the Houston Texans inevitably going down the same path.   D’joun Smith is who you’re thinking of.   Grigson is looked at as an overall bust and a terrible drafter so naturally the blame will be more widely accepted. There is no doubt things will be heating up under Ballards seat if anything less then winning the division is obtained this year. The QB position has been his Achilles heel. If Richardson is healthy this season I believe his roster will be very heavily evaluated with no excuses this year.
