Chris Ballard and free agency

[HoosierinFL]

You guys remember this story that came out last month?
http://www.sharpfootballanalysis.com...the-2017-colts

Its an analysis of how the Colts lost their games this past year, and how historically bad they were at closing teams out, and how historically predictable they were with 4th quarter playcalling.
The take home message is that this roster is much better than 4 wins, and good coaching will make a mountain of a difference.
So no, we don't need a rebuild and overhaul of the roster.
Yes we need some new guys on the o-line, and some new LBs, and probably now a WR with Moncrieff gone.
But that's not an overhaul/rebuild. And I'm 100% on board with Ballard's approach of edit: not* overpaying for FAs, which upsets team chemistry. He wants leaders and to build from within.

He needs a culture change more than a talent change, and this approach is the way to do it.
