  1. That seems to be the national consensus
  2. In fairness to tepper rhule sold him that they could win right away
  3. https://theathletic.com/3969913/2022/12/05/colts-jim-harbaugh-jeff-saturday-jim-irsay/ But he’s got a reputation for being difficult, for wearing people within the organization down to a fine nub. I don’t care This team needs a leader with an edge, someone who will demand accountability and will exude toughness — a Mike Vrabel. Look, Bill Polian was as difficult and crotchety as they came, and he was brilliant. Go back to Ryan Grigson, who was as cuddly as a dyspeptic grizzly, but enjoyed eminently more success than Ballard has had. Yes, the word on the street is that Harbaugh wears on people. Things ended badly in San Francisco. Tell me, though, how much success did the Niners have after Harbaugh left San Francisco? Remember the Jim Tomsula Era? What about the Chip Kelly era? Harbaugh’s been at Michigan for eight years. He’s on the cusp of his second straight CFP appearance and quite possibly a national title. He’s gotten his butt kicked by Ohio State, and now he’s returned the favor with two straight victories over the Buckeyes. Even after his dance with the Vikings last year, Michigan welcomed him back to the family, and yes, there’s a reason why he has such a low buyout number ($3 million). Irsay has been in the nice-guy business for years. He hired Tony Dungy, the Patron Saint of Good Men, and he hired Jim Caldwell and Chuck Pagano and Frank Reich and now, for the time being, Jeff Saturday. Ballard? Nice guy. Some will see his willingness to accommodate the media as some cynical attempt to curry favor; my sense is he genuinely enjoys (most of) the give and take and understands the requirements of our jobs. But whatever … Too often in recent years, the Colts have sided with sentimentality over cold, harsh objective reality, like when they stuck with Adam Vinatieri, who was making 78.6 percent of his extra points. They signed a way-past-his-prime T.Y. Hilton, despite clear evidence that he was done. This is a cold, hard business. Deal with it.
  4. How the fug did we get to this point? Basically all of those options suck. I would just go option 1 and pray it works.
  5. he had a ton of accolades coming into college he just needs reps and game experience
  6. He will go top 10 easily if everything checks out with him. The josh allen effect will be in full force. Not that mock drafts are the end all be all but they are a gauge of sorts and he seems to be moving up in most new ones. He is #1 here. https://www.profootballnetwork.com/2023-nfl-mock-draft-traits-elevate-anthony-richardson-bryce-young-others/ I think more and more people are envisioning a scenario where he tests off the charts and someone gambles on him early
  7. But his hit may be the adverse. Could be a josh allen nfc clone if done correctly. Odds are squarely against that but fug it, lets have some fun. At the baseline, the absolute baseline, he would put fannies in seats and at least be interesting for a short period. I think once people start watching his highlights and see just how big and fast he is along with probably a top 3 arm in the nfl then folks are going to start to take notice
  8. If we are going to go, might as well go hard. Roll the dice with this kid and see what happens. fug it, the way I see it, its either we win the lottery or a total reset in 3 years.
  9. It's a weird corner we have painted ourselves into
