Thin CB room gets thinner - JuJu Brents to IR with knee injury

[omahacolt]

who would have guessed


fuck

[Brylok]

That's...not good.

Well, at least we are now giving our opponents a dilemma....

Beat us with the run.....

or beat us with the pass.....

Sigh.....I have lost my faith in Chris Ballard.

Lack of talent and depth at CB was a known issue. Every off season prediction was for us to sign free agents at the position.

I am ready for change.....

Dude is just lazy, period.

No worries. At the post season press conference Ballard will tell us how it’s on him and how he has to do some things differently. I mean he won’t, but that’s as close as we’ll get to fixing the actual issue.

Looks like it is a MCL injury.

Based on the estimated recovery timing being mentioned so far, I would assume it is classified as a Grade 3 severity.

It’s an MCL injury for Colts CB JuJu Brents, per a league source.

Huge blow to an already young and inexperienced secondary.

Well, I guess we can rightfully say that he is "injury prone"

Colt fans deserve better than Ballard and Gus Bradley. They both suck. Ballard is so damn annoying with his inaction. How in the world was he suppose to stop Stroud without shoring up the defensive backfield. Same old same old with him. Don't even like watching him talk anymore, pure BS.

I've seen this somewhere before. If it wasn't you I've seen others say they exact same thing. It resonates because I feel the same. Every year his shit gets more stale.

A good year is not good enough, the year has to be great.

It won’t be great because “this year” is never the priority. Decisions are always made for future years. Always. He’s yet to have a single season where it was obvious the team thought this was their year or even the start of a window. Contrast Ballard’s methods to Houston’s. How much did their new additions impact that game? Makes sense the Colts didn’t expect their run game to be an issue, they can’t fathom how a team could actually address a known weakness. It’s fucking infuriating.
