Not sure by what standard the above is anything but suck, but okay, I am sure you have a hundred thousand qualifiers why the above can't be viewed as sucking.
Sorry, I do acknowledge that it was cloudy on some of those days and there were a couple where the weather was so bad a wind breaker was required. Definitely less than optimal conditions so I acknowledge that hardship he has had to work with. Poor guy.
Dude is a fucking tight wad who is constantly looking forward, looking to build for the following year. He pays the wrong damn positions big dollars.

Thank you for confirming that you're measuring with the wrong stick. The Colts have had a top 10-15 QB in exactly 2 of Ballard's 8 seasons. Both times, the team made the playoffs. Is the lack of overall team success frustrating? Sure, but the lack of success hasn't been for lack of talent on the roster. It's been because the QB position became an unexpected issue in year 3 of Ballard's tenure, and he's put together high quality rosters around that despite not having the answer at QB that came close to making the playoffs without a quality QB several times. If Richardson I'd the answer at QB, we're in for a run like the 2000s. That's worth giving Ballard the chance to get there.
