I think he can be an average starter when given adequate help and weapons. He just can’t elevate those around him. You can win a SB with those kinds of guys - if your overall team is great and everything breaks right in a given year. If not for his own injury and the injuries to every other weapon on offense, the team would have a much better record and most would have a different impression of him. Fans are extremely fickle - especially when it comes to the QB position. He wasn’t as good as it appeared early and he isn’t as bad as he appears now. But it’s the most important position on the team so of course you want someone elite. Ballard should absolutely be looking for an improvement, but he can’t force it if the right guy isn’t there. He slow rolled when the team had Luck, so it would make no sense to force it now without him.
