That is one thing that drives me crazy. I realize there are salary cap implications, but when I see guys like D Adams or a Diggs being traded for a 4th rounder or something similar? I just cringe that the Colts never get in on those trades. Like any 5th rounder in the world will ever be a player as good as those guys. To me, GMs like Ballard way way WAY overestimate the value of any pick beyond the second round. Many of those guys will barely make the team, and if they do, they are very rarely are difference makers. It is become that guys like Ballard think of these draft picks like gold nuggets. The truth are most are just Fools Gold. -
We need to practice sideline tackling. I can do better at pushing a runner out-of-bounds from 1 foot away.

Watch Daniels game today. It was a masterpiece in how to play the QB position as a running/passing QB. He is in his 5th game as a rookie and I felt like I was watching a seasoned pro. He was so good he didn't need to play the last quarter. He ran I think 11 times and I don't know if he got hit more than once. This is a guy who is 2 inches shorter than AR and at least 35 pounds lighter. But he makes AR look like a grade schooler when it comes to being a running QB. What I don't like about AR at this point is his complete lack of taking any accountability for getting hurt. He doesn't slide. He rarely runs out of bounds. He runs into defenders and takes them on like he is a RB but instead of inflicting punishment? He tends to let up at the very last second while at the same time being in the same position as if he was a RB. It is very strange. And judging by his words this week he doesn't seem to want to change. I think AR has as much talent as any QB in the league. But his mind? And his ability to take pain? I put that at the lower end of any QB in the league. They need to sit him until he admits to himself, the team, and the fans that protecting himself is issue #1, 2, 3, and 4 through 100. But I really don't think he gets it. My prediction is he does not finish out the year because he will get hurt..........again. In which case the Colts should fire Ballard (they should anyway) and try to get another QB to at least show AR that he is not going to just be given the starting job. He needs to learn to play the right way, ala Daniels, or just retire. Because no one he is going to last playing the way he is. -

The AFC is so bad chargers have the 7th spot at 2-2. There are so many 2-3 teams.
