This is his team completely. The losing culture and lack of leadership on this team is a result of Ballard’s methods.

This isn’t a matter of a losing culture. It’s a talented offense held back by a QB with serious shortcomings. If Richardson, somehow, morphs into a solid pro, the Colts are a serious playoff contender. If he doesn’t, Ballard is on the outside, looking for a job.
