Nice to see Freaks Freakin out about the Colts not paying $20 mil/year for marginal talent upgrades. Keep on Freakin on.

This place is tame compared to reddit, but then the Colts board there is mostly really bad memes.

So what's the purpose of all this cap space if we aren't going to spend money to improve the team, especially to protect Luck? We have a lot of holes, sitting on our hands isn't filling them. I'm starting to fear that Ballard has the "smartest man in the room" complex.

I love the daily articles "Colts can still get these FAs"

There is still time for things to happen, but I understand your concern. Honestly, I do think part of the issue is until Luck shows he can play we are not that attractive of a place to come for FAs. We can push much of this space into next year when we may be much more attractive, so throwing stupid money at mid-level players might be a mistake. I just don't think it is time for as much panic and angst as I am seeing from Colts fans. The sky may indeed fall, but it has not happened yet.

I can’t fucking stand dudes saying dudes they have never met anew trying to be the smartest guy in the room.

You are trying to be the dumbest guy in the room

There is still time but like I said last year, did we get better? Hard to say with that idiot pagano.

So far we are a worse team and we have a ton of cash. That is going backwards

Recognizing a problem & addressing it are two different things. Ballard isn't addressing shit.

I understand not overpaying for talent and I don't want to freak out about the season 3 days into free agency

But they have money that to some degree they HAVE to spend on someone and lots of not just holes on the team due to poor talent but literal holes with no one signed.

You can't pass on everyone. You have to actually field a team.

$6.5 million for one year for Melvin. I don't understand why you don't make that deal. You better be bringing in someone good to replace him if you can't pay that money for one of the few bright spots on the D last year.
