Every coach wants a guy that can run the offense efficiently, walk up read the defense and make the throw when it’s there. AR just relies too much on athleticism and buying time yet missing on the simple play when a guy is schemed open.

This tells me they want to win now, unfortunately for AR the best players on this team are getting up there in age

Joe Flacco was a significantly better QB than Jones has ever shown. He was 4-1 as a starter the year before the Colts. Richardson was 6-5 last year. Jones was 2-8 last year and 1-5 the year before.

I’m glad after 9 years a Ballard led team is in win now mode. They’ve fucked this up to no end. Draft the rawest QB prospect ever, start him immediately, then start benching him for scrubs to “win” now in years 2 and 3. It’s perfect Ballard logic.

I’m not sure why Steichen making a stupid decision seems to give you confidence in that decision. This team has made tons of stupid decisions. How many worked out?
