Stayed true through the move to Indy and actually shed tears when it became apparent that Manning was going to actually be a good QB (for me it was using his cadence to cause an offsides-our QB play was atrocious before him). For the first time ever I could care less about this year. This years cool aide has no effect whatsoever on me. No excitement, not looking forward to seeing this group play. Like I said this is a new experience for me. It has taken Ballard and this group 10 years to burn out my excitement for the Colts but burn it out they have. I have zero faith in this organization and could not care any less about Jones or what he does. My only real hope is that the new ownership will have their shit together and lead us out of this quagmire after this waste of a year. Its a total bummer

Hang in there Oldcolt. I've got a sneaking suspicion that Tyler Warren will make forget about John Mackey and Dallas Clark.
I also believe that the veterans hated Gus Bradley's defense. Kenny Moore was the first to complain, and Darius Leonard was the loudest against it. Buck even complained about the lack of accountability in a more vague way than Leonard.
I also believe that big Jim was to meddlesome in his final years, and that it was a detriment to the team.
