At the very least, Irsay needs to talk to Reich about play-calling duties.  It’s an ongoing problem.  And I think Frank has proved that it’s not his strong suit.

 

Let somebody else give it a try.

It's not just Frank's playcalling on O. It's also D. There's just a completely lack of energy. They look deflated.

the new gm doesnt need to cut them  .  he just needs to rebuild the wr core left tackle and other spots ignored by ballard

Or Ballard could do it.  Point is, the roster will still be cap heavy where it is now no matter who is doing the future picking.

I’m not saying play-calling is the only problem.  I’m saying that it is - and long has been - a problem.

 

And it’s among the easiest ones to try to fix.  Maybe we will be needing a coaching change.  But, for the time being, I think the brass needs to at least consider having Brady call the plays.

Can only say I agree with @NFLfan. You won't find better.

i dont understand what are fans supposed to say after watching the last 4 colts games going back to last year ?  4 straight games getting beat down .    the team looks horrible if we were playing against the chiefs i would understand but the texans and jags will be 5 and 11 teams they are not great teams .   i dont get the positive thoughts people what are we suppose to say nothing has been good today

On the prior play when Ryan was sacked, when looking for an open guy, Granson was coming completely open and it sure looked like Ryan wanted to pass to him for what looked to be an easy TD, but Granson was so unaware, taking forever to turn around to look back to the QB.  Grandson’s lack of awareness took the pass away and instead of a TD, it was a sack.

    • Feel the need to clarify something.   The writer of the article, Bob McGinn, is one of the top-10 football writers there is.  (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel) McGinn does NOT have an opinion on Mitchell.  It’s the unnamed scouts who have the negative opinions.  McGinn is quoting them which is his job.  He is supposed to do that.     Ballard even acknowledged that in his own way.  He literally said “put your name on it!”   Well, McGinn’s name IS on it.  it’s his column.   But it’s the scouts who are saying things anonymously.   If there’s an issue, (if) it’s with them, not McGinn.     
    • And when/if a team signs one of those safeties they’ll be made to look like a genius while Ballard is called a fool.    I think what’s more likely is that an injury will inevitably happen and a team will bring in an available free agent. That could be training camp. That could early in the season. You just never know. 
    • But if the Colts sign someone next week or the week after then it really doesn’t matter.    I would’ve preferred we sign some two weeks ago.   Get them familiar with the DC and position coach.   But once we didn’t then it really doesn’t matter when.  It just matters that we do it before camp opens.  At least to me.    And the fact no one else is signing these top FA safeties tells me the market just isn’t there yet.   I’m preaching a healthy dose of patients.  
    • How about getting a proven commodity in the FA market? I know that assumes the player wants to be here, but money talks and the Colts have some. This D needs a solid center fielder. Simmons fits that role perfectly. If he’s gettable, here’s to Ballard pulling the trigger, even if it’s a slight overpay. The team CANNOT leave this crucial position to players who have consistently underperformed in the past (Cross and Thomas). 
    • All - this is the real question.   What do the 32 GMs in the league know that the rest of us (we're on the outside looking in) don't know?   Answer that question and you'll have what you need to analyze the choices made by the leadership of your favorite team.
