Ballard has had 8 years and it is the same shit every year and the same excuse makers defend him every season.

I'll throw this in to, if Leonard wasn't good enough to backup an injured Jones, why didn't they upgrade the position early on? Stroud goes down for 3 games and Davis Mills steps in and wins all 3 games, that is a prepared team!
They lost to the defending AFC champions and the Texans by a combined 7 points, and they did it with a Quarterback playing on a broken leg.

As far as a failure to upgrade the position in case of an injury, how soon do we forget Anthony Richardson. He was plan B, the guy who was supposed to step in if anything happened to Jones.
