Only the most faithful fans stand by the team no matter what happens so we have the right the say when it’s at its worse. The offense is the only reason we are this pathetic. Several players need to find the door at the end of the season and Saturday needs to be the first one to leave. If we were a mediocre team we would be leading the AFC south. Irsays all chips in was a flat out lie to the fan base .

So hard to judge when you have much more talent around you then opponent , top wr,rb , O line..many can excel when tilted so much in their favor.

That’s what they say but you’d find out that many actually can’t excel.  There’s levels to it.  Young’s receivers have been sub par.  He’s really had to step up and carry a disjointed Alabama offense this year.  Good to see him have to grind out wins and not just steamroll most opponents.

I have no idea what Ballard does to fix this point. Everyone but Braden smith has been just awful. Maybe tonight is more just giving up but the highest two players are just bad.


Thats why Ballard voluntarily gets out, IMO

Oh my. So what player would the Saints want as they are rebuilding? They would want  a 1st and probably our  top 5 pick.  We are not getting Sean. We will bring back  lame duck  Ballard. Insert garbage coach for  a year and picking top 3 in 2024.

Dont believe Ballard will be back. Unless Jim just doesn’t have the cash to pay him to leave.

Kudos to the resolve of Gus Bradley and his defense.

Could not imagine anything more demoralizing than the Colts Offense, yet they keep competing.

This D is legit,keep it intact next year especially Gilly, young D Line and with Leonard back we are pretty set. Revamp that O and let it roll....

How lucky is Foles for catching that lightening in Philly? He's garbage as well.

This entire situation sucks. It’s probably unfair to him. Probably even to Sam. Ryan is the only one that played enough we can truly gauge he was bad. We have a inexperienced play caller and short 3 offensive coaches.

I don't understand why the Colts insist on playing Ryan or Foles since neither has played well and should not be back next year. They could not do any worse with Sam playing QB and they would have an opportunity to see if he progressed or if he too should be released prior to next season. It would be interesting to know what football genius thought that Ryan or Foles would be the answer for a couple of years.

    • Thanks for the good wishes. I wish the same for your Vikings. Tough division game for them.   Mixed feelings on our QB. I can't deny Anthony is an amazing athlete, and he's shown flashes of what he can be. Some really wow throws, but misses some lay-up tosses. Seems very intelligent, and wants to win. I'm sure he's like most young Qb's trying to get used to  the speed and talent of NFL Defenses, and maybe being coached to stay in the pocket and not run as much as he did is giving him some trouble. I think 7 games is too few to tell how good or bad he might be eventually. I just hope he can keep healthy, and keep improving.
    • Packers fans can tell me about Joe Barry that was their DC from 2021-23. They were always in the Top 12-15 range in terms of points per game as opposed to the Colts.   But the year 2021, the Colts were on par because we ran the ball well and possessed it well. Not so much in 2022, and 2023 was a bit of defensive regression for decent possession of the ball from Bradley’s unit.   Brandon Staley is another name but I’d prefer Jon Barry for his units to generate pressure. Otherwise we’d have to look at college like Packers getting the Boston College HC.   I’m a fan of Jim Leonhard that was a heck of a defensive coach / DC at Wisconsin, and is now a DB coach with Broncos. Dave Merritt, the Chiefs DB coach has done an outstanding job there and was interviewed for DC by 49ers.   My pick would be Jim Leonhard or Dave Merritt.    
    • You can’t keep winning only scoring one TD A game. I think they have gotten some what lucky with who they have played. Colds dline beat up so we will see.
    • What I meant is they are not going to come out and just throw 50 times. They are going to try and break your will and run out the clock. It’s  probably going to be a low scoring game. They have only scored 3 offensive TD. I am shocked they str 3-0. They don’t have many offensive weapons. Harris is not really a pass catching back who will break a long run. Now could that change. Off course. But their Oline id beat up. I was reading an article how they tried to open things up and Fields immediately got sacked. He they try to open things up till he revert back to Bears fields. 
    • I don’t know enough of the position coaches on other teams to say who is worthy of promotion. Best to keep an eye out on head coaches on the hot seat and their staffs.
