I thought that was kind of understood going into this season. The expectation wasn't to be a super bowl contender, just to be competitive and get all of those guys experience.

every season we should compete, the off season is to build a roster that can win. we have not done that under ballards method after 7 years,his draft picks have been getting experience for 7 years

I don't care if it is Houston - a win is a win, I am celebrating this win with a strong Crown Royal on Ice and just opened up a big Cigar. We had no major injuries, I am sure AR will be fine by next week. Minshew held the fort down anyway. Great win, long time coming baby! The Simpsons GIF by KiwiGo (KGO)

A lot. Dudes a legit passer.

 

I agree. I wanted Stroud first (better passer) and Richardson second. My point was that MOST d coordinators would have feasted today and came after the rookie big time with a lot of different looks combined with multiple blitz packages ESPECIALLY if he was playing behind a third string makeshift o-line. Gus has been in the league long enough to be capable of mixing in some press man against a ROOKIE.

Who cares?

 

CBE was saying this is the best half of football the Colts have played in 2 years.  I was simply pointing out the Colts played an even better half last year vs. Minn.   

 

That’s all.  

I don't consider  it better because  that lead was built mostly  by the defense. This one was good offensive  execution.

    • Ballard's draft strategy is sound, IMO. It's his unwillingness to be more aggressive in other areas that I think holds him back. To build the kind of team he wants with as little outside help as he acquires, he'd have to be seriously outperforming everyone in the draft every year for several years in a row, and that's not going to happen.     Yeah it would be director of scouting or something similar, where he can work from a home base but still do his thing. It's really remarkable that he can compile this information without being on the road all year, but that probably means he has a network feeding him info, which is basically what a director would be doing. I have no idea about the compensation though.     Solak is not my cup of tea. I agree with his opinions often enough, but his presentation is grating. And he comes across as overly opinionated and downright contemptuous of anyone who disagrees with his strong opinions.   An example is last year, how he mocked the idea that any team would like Levis as a top level QB. For him, it had to be because NFL teams just like the guy who looks and talks like a franchise QB, no one could actually like Levis for his traits and his game. So the Colts were the team that was definitely going to fall in love with him, because he looks and talks the way Jim Irsay prefers, and therefore the Colts were going to stupidly draft him at #4. Again, not because they like his game. Anyone who disagreed with his analysis of Levis had to have a flawed and prejudiced process from top to bottom. He was loud and somewhat abrasive about it... and he was very wrong.    I think he does the work. I think he also gets ahead of himself in certain ways, and presents things as if he's absolutely certain, even when he's off on the details. In some ways, he seems more suited for sports debate shows than player analysis, and I don't like sports debate shows.
    • For his career Budda has 10% missed tackles. Pretty high actually. His big year with all those tackles he had a 72.7% completions rating. And a 125 passer rating and gave up 4 tds. Yowwww!   Since winning is everything, I see our management team adding 3 more pieces to strengthen our chances. I would expect at S, LB, RB. Barring injury, going right up to final cuts works for us.  
    • Laiatu Latu with some Colts gear on and brand new giant horseshoe tattoo on his shoulder safe to say this is my favorite player coming into the new season…    
    • There’s no reason to trade Paye.  None.   He fits comfortably in the roster.  Ballard just gushed over Paye this weekend.  Couldn’t say enough good things about him.     And since we let Pittman play out his rookie deal before re-signing him, I’m expecting the same with Paye.   Even if we don’t pick up the 5th year option, I think he’ll be back next year the same as Pittman.
