If Leonard goes out and plays well, that makes Steichen look dumb. That doesn’t reflect at all on Ballard.

Your hatred of Ballard seems to have made you irrational.

So I'm fucking stupid now, I wondered how long it would be before you resorted to insults! Ballard sucks as a GM, he has nearly destroyed this franchise but the worst part is fans like you continue to make excuses for him, defending to the death any time he is criticized!

I don't mind Steichen, I think he is learning, was probably never the best choice, another Ballard fuck up!

You asked for proof. I gave it to you from MANY SOURCES. IIRC there was a short video about Brady and BB that also talked about it.

Don't be bull headed

Dude, were you around for the sucktivity of 1972 through 1974, or 1978 to 1986 or the further embarrassment of 1991 to 1994?

If not, then you know nothing about destroyed franchises.

I didn’t say you were dumb, I said the point you were making is dumb.

I’m ambivalent on whether Ballard stays or goes and I don’t think anyone has any real idea what CIG is going to do.

What I do think is that, overall, Ballard has built a pretty damn good roster. We saw that when we had decent quarterback play this season, for the first time really since Rivers retired 5 years ago.

Ballards failure has been in finding a quarterback, but he’s not the only GM who has failed in that regard. More than half the league is looking for a good quarterback at any given time. They are REALLY hard to come by unless you’re REALLY REALLY bad.

And the Colts haven’t been bad enough to get one, even with less than stellar quarterback play.

To me, it all comes down to finding a quarterback. Without a good quarterback, pretty much everything else is irrelevant. Carlie should hire the best person to somehow go out and find one. If she thinks that’s Chris Ballard, so be it. If not, fire his ass and hire someone who will.

My concern is the next guy is not going to be any better if we don’t have a quarterback, and will almost CERTAINLY be worse.

I agree with this overall sentiment, although I think that the period from 1972 through 1974 was more about a rebuilding process to a younger and (eventually) better team rather than a ruination of the franchise. The 1970 Colts that won the Super Bowl was an excellent team, but they were starting to age. 1971 saw them lose in the AFC Championship game while aging some more, and 1972 saw them fall to a 5-9 season, with mostly close losses (while aging some more.)

The 1973 team was flat-out bad, and the 1974 team was worse ...... but they were gradually getting younger and better equipped for a solid run, which was due mostly to Joe Thomas' excellent work.

And I agree with your statements overall. But, Baltimore had become spoiled by winning...which was never going to last forever. Hell, you could see the cracks after 19's last great season 1967. The point being, if you if you aren't willing to last through the good or the mediocre...well you were not a true fan anyway.
