Grigson depressing fact

Andrew thoughts aside.

 

That guy definitely damaged this roster/team/organization.

 

Don't remember if it was true, but we even had therapists mediating between owner/GM/HC for #s sake.

 

Not bashing my boy Jim Irsay, but we're (Colts fans) going to always wonder how it would've went if he hired two different GM/HC's.

Only 2 players from his 2012-2014 drafts are still in the nfl.. can you guess who they are?

 

If you count practice squad (Gerri Green, Jackson Barton) and IR (Daurice Fountain, Javon Patterson), Ballard is 29/29 of players still in the NFL from his first 3 drafts... dismiss those players and he's still 25/29.

 

A few players are not with us any more, but landed on other rosters (Denzelle Goode -- OAK, Terrell Basham -- NYJ, Nate Hairston -- NYJ, Zach Banner -- PITT).

 

I posted more information in a recent thread bashing Ballard's drafts -- he has actually done a phenomenal job to date with his drafting.

Henry Anderson still on the Jets?

He was 2015... the OP specified 2012-2014.

50 points to you for the Letterkenney reference lmao

I dont know how you relate an Army Base to the Colts?  In the 1970s,  I spent 2 years hauling M60Tanks from Letterkenny Army Base, Pennsylvania- to Fort Bliss, Texas.

I still look at that 2014 roster and get mind blown at how THAT team not only made the AFCCG, but they beat Peyton in the playoffs, in DENVER, something not even Brady could do

They also won games with out Luck... The next year. And beat the Broncos again their Superbowl year.

I remember when Hasselbeck came in and they went like 4-0. Mostly beating trash AFCS teams like the Jags and Texans, but they also beat Matt Ryan in Atlanta. That was pretty funny.

Letterkenny is a hilarious TV show about a made-up small town in Ontario, Canada.

Here's a clip that may better show the origins of the gif originally posted

    • I just cant understand taking D line over a CB this year.  WR or Bowers would make sense to me   If the team doesnt value corners this way then maybe they should start.  I dont like to pigeon hole what we draft this hard but our secondary is a bunch of nobodies and our Dline is ok, better than ok actually.  We dont even have many snaps for a rookie unless they are a really good edge right out of the gate. A rookie DT from this class isnt beating Buckner or Stewart.
    • We see many coverage failures by all teams caused by miscommunication.  Certainly there are exceptional individuals that play CB but experience and intelligence are vital.  Flowers had size and 4.3's speed, and Jones was decent. Juju has potential but because of his size and speed he will always be successfully targeted.   We are desperate for a 4.3's stud that can cover anytime, anywhere. That was Rodgers BTW. 
    • Isaiah Land he says.     Every year it happens. The Dallas Cowboys make some tough roster cuts and we all wait nervously to see if our favorite prospects make it cleanly through waivers. Most do, but every once in a while, a team will scoop up that one guy we were hoping made it to the practice squad. This year, that player is edge rusher Isaiah Land. An undrafted free agent from Florida A&M, Land dealt with injuries his final year in college, but had a remarkable season in 2021 when he finished with 19 sacks, 25.5 tackles for a loss, and three fumble recoveries. While there is a lot to be uncovered with him, he still flashed enough to draw interest from the Cowboys. Throughout the summer, the young edge rusher had impressed and it looked like the team had found another diamond in the rough. Land was fantastic during the preseason. In three games, he finished with 10 total pressures, which was the second-most of any player on any NFL team this preseason. He also finished with seven hurries on 45 pass-rushing snaps. He only recorded one official sack but finished with a pass rush win rate of 20%. Not only that, he had opposing tackles so worried about his get-off that they were regularly jumping early. There were several instances when tackles would get called for a false start.    Might as well be optimistic about  Woods and Land contributing to our resurrection. 
    • Nice catch Stitch.  Year two of Steichen, our very functional TE group and Downs gives me very high expectations that we will be highly effective attacking the middle of the field. If we do add another WR to help complement the other side of the field, Pittman's ability to be even more outstanding only goes up. And I feel confident another guy will be added. Our offense should be very strong for 2024.
    • I'm hopeful Colts resign Blackmon and do this in the draft
