It's like Ballard plays by his own set of rules, as if he's smarter than everybody else, while the rest of the NFl takes advantage of the rules ,like free agency. How over confident can a GM be by thinking he can build an entire team through the draft. Those years have been long gone a long time ago. I dont think we have one starter on our team this year that hasn't been drafted by Balllard. We will watch teams continue to blow by us trying to build the Colts that way. Actually we have already seen teams blow by us. I understand the foundation maybe being through the draft but the entire team? It really is a huge Ego and arrogance to believe you can build a winner that way. After 8 years, still the best player on our defense wasn't drafted by Ballard. You would think he would get it by now. After 8 years , the best QB, WR and TE we've had on this team, wasn't drafted by Ballard........I'll give him JT at RB. The guy is just too stubborn to get out of his own way and it's getting to the point that Irsay may be the real problem if he continues to employ this clown. I'll give it to Ballard though, he's a slick dude because as long as he continues to use the draft to fill out the starters on this team, and always ask for patience because we're young, it's a built in excuse to keep himself employed.

I can't explain it either, but this forum has made the same observations when Frank was the HC too, about the nonusage of JT. I don't think it means the coaches are dumb. It means its either something about JT or modern coaches using analytics and tendencies in their decision making. I'd have to say that the coaches must think that what was causing the 9YPC was taken away by GB. The other side adjusts too. People are assuming it would have kept going, so just leave JT in and we'll get 9 YPC in perpetuity, but coaches understand what other teams are doing real time. I also think that coaches see RBs as interchangeable. The entire NFL devalues them as being anything special, so maybe SS simply doesn't think there is much difference between JT and the others, especially if GB made a critical adjustment to alignments or similar things to take something away that they were giving up for 3Qs..

Agree Taylor was the best thing we had going. And we know he can break a long run at any moment. Teams have to account for him every time he’s in. He’s even gotten a lot better in receiving. So instead of Taylor you are hoping AR can get the job done. He has a hard time hitting the broad side of a barn on the short to intermediate routes. We weren’t down two or three scores and had to abandon the run. It was a close game. Sitting him was crazy. This is where gambling makes me nervous. The league has welcomed it and it’s everywhere. We don’t know these players or coaches at all. Who they are or who their friends are. We only see them on tv. They all look like upstanding individuals until they aren’t. Sports is really crazy now. Nothing would surprise me anymore. When I hear our coach try to explain his rationale on Taylor it makes no sense. No sense at all. -
I wonder if they go 2-6 or worse they’ll bench him. Seems like his coach is starting to lose patience with him. Cost them 2 games.
