Maybe the Colts can get the overall #1 draft choice and draft a kicker.

Newsflash: we aren't middle of the pack any more. We're bottom of the barrel. And that Lions team you're banging on comfortably beat the team today that comfortably beat the Jagoffs team that skull fucked the shit out of the team Ballard put together.

I like you Norm, but don't take it out on me. I just posted my opinion. We're shit either way, for one reason or another.

I like you too Brylok, and my response was nothing personal. Just trying to drive home my points. My apologies for any offense.

Can the Colts turn it around? Reich has to convince his team a reversal is possible.

"As pathetic as that was today, where this is and where we need to be, the distance is not that far," Reich said. "We have the players and coaches to do it. I know that doesn't play in the outside world, and I'm fine with that. We'll take our medicine and I'll take my medicine and we'll just keep doing what we do."

I’m not completely absolving Reich of responsibility, but Ballard has IMO played a major role in the slow starts as well. The constant QB carousel and the constant focus on development instead of achievement are major factors. Last season was nothing but an extended training camp for young DEs. They didn’t earn their spots, they were gifted them by the lack of available options. It appears the same is happening at WR and TE this year. Veterans have a value that Ballard refuses to see, so the early season is simply an extension of training camp to see who rises to the top. Fuck, they are rotating players at LT now. You don’t fucking do that if you have a solution at the position. Especially not at fucking LT. Not to mention the shit at PK.

Hahaha! I wrote that before seeing the game. I watched it later on replay. I recant my statement. Totally agree, Fuck them all.

There are 15 games left, I plan to watch them all regardless of who the Colts have as a coach and GM at the end of the season. It looks bleak, and the team has not looked good! But they should have won the game in Houston, they did everything right in the OT and then missed a very makable FG. Yesterday was a train wreck, but this team is too thin in talent to be missing players like Pittman, Leonard, and even Pierce!

Speaking of Pierce, this guy could be a very important piece. He could also be a bust, but he might be another Wes Welker, which would totally change the efficiency of this offense. Getting back Shaquille Leonard could greatly improve this defense, and getting Michael Pittman back in the lineup will make this team instantly better. We have yet to see this team at full strength. I am not defending Reich or Ballard, I believe all the criticism is warranted and more than likely unless this team has a major turn around both of these guys may be gone next season.

Just my two cents, not trying to persuade anyone or make excuses, I have just watched enough football to know that dramatic turnarounds do happen....occasionally!

If you're looking for Alec Pierce to be Wes Welker, prepare to be disappointed. If you're looking for him to be D.K. Metcalf lite, you might not be.

The only thing Pierce and Welker have in common is being white.
