Default Multiple Lombardi's

When Irsay said that, he was talking about the duo of Ballard and Reich winning them with the Colts, right??

The team will never win one under Ballard. Until he changes his philosophy he will always collect talent instead of building a championship caliber team. His teams will always under perform.

Ballard is far more to blame for this shit show than Reich is.

One percent better podcast was saying yesterday that the colts faced 8 man fronts the 9th most times in the nfl last season.

This year, they’re dead last.

Teams do not respect this offensive line AT ALL. They know they can win easily with just 7.

That’s completely on Ballard.

We also had Andrew Luck if I remember right. BIG reason we're in this mess in the first place. Still trying to repair the torpedo damage.

albert breer was talking about this on the radio this morning, specifically with the rams. basically, one of the modern ways to build a SB contender is get your core then go all out to win because players generally have a small window of peak performance. That you cant really build for long term success and build to win the SB at the same time. Thats the model the rams used by trading so many future picks and being aggressive in FA.

That is basically the exact opposite of ballard. In general I have liked and supported ballard, but that seems to be waining as of late.

If we had a line that required eight, wouldn’t you think we needed to bolster other positions? Yeah, I know some of the parts have changed, but the core is still there.
