That would be silly. I mean the team is set for this year and not coach or GM is changing hints at this stage.

It’s not about that. It’s about showing players & coaches that their is an expectation for winning here in Indy. 
 

Reich needs fired. Jets have a bad team & still can come out with good play calls, etc. 

 

Reich should have never been the play-caller.

East, I would agree that Reich has more than his fair share of faults.  Your points are 100% valid, but as you know a HC will  only go so far as the talent on the roster.  To be clear, I am not sold on him at all as coach that can lead this team to a higher level.

 

However, I see this team having serious talent issues at critical positions that typically leverage wins and that to me is a Chris Ballard issue. 

 

On the bolded, I believe Reich's prep, game plan, scheme, play calling, etc... simply is horrible. 

A coach can make talent look worse. It's why a coach change can make a team looks different. 

 

And this game.... example of Pederson >>>>> Reich....

Ballard has really messed this up. In a league that values Qb's, Wr's and Pass Rush the most, he has failed to find Lucks replacement, failed to provide adequate pass rush and absolutely has gone complete dummy on the WR position.

Instead we have most of our money tied up in a G, the highest paid Oline that cant block, and a linebacker.

the jags have a very good pass rush much better wrs and offensive line protection .   you can switch spots and the colts will still lose with peterson .

    • Link to article   This guy likes what how Ballard has built the Colts. The Colts are far from being mediocre. JMO
    • I almost spit my coffee out reading this a few times, lol!  I love sarcasm and I especially love it when there is some truth to it!  Well played Sir!
    • I guess the whole question is the merits of the report. You report on his diabetes with tons of guesses and speculations and WITHOUT taking the side of the person who's been affected here and who's living and dealing with that condition. You report on the player being uncoachable WITHOUT taking the opinion of his coaches about being coachable or not(and BTW from what I've heard both from Colts and Texas coaches, this is resoundingly NOT TRUE). You report about him being immature and honestly, everything I've seen on the surface suggests the opposite. You report about his combine performance by giving it a pretty harsh reading(the video is in this thread and the account of what happened by McGinn is in this thread... People can actually go and look at what happened and make their own mind about whether the characterization of that workout was fair or not. I will just say you can represent the player stumbling in a drill and going again in various different ways and McGinn chose a specific way to represent it. It was the most negative way you could choose).    You know I had my own reservations about that outburst by Ballard at the presser, but the more I'm learning about Mitchell the more I actually believe in what Ballard was saying and the less merit those reports have in my mind. Maybe I have my own unconscious biases too, now that I have vested interest in Mitchell actually being good for us. I don't know     I guess ultimately none of it matters. AD's success or failure won't depend on some pre-draft reports... it will depend on how he handles himself from now on, how hard he works, his drive to be great and our staff's ability to get the best of him.
