Ballard has had 8 years and it is the same shit every year and the same excuse makers defend him every season.

I'll throw this in to, if Leonard wasn't good enough to backup an injured Jones, why didn't they upgrade the position early on? Stroud goes down for 3 games and Davis Mills steps in and wins all 3 games, that is a prepared team!
They didn’t upgrade the position because no one could have foreseen it taking this long for AR to heal. It’s a mystery why he’s still having issues.

Regardless, they’re not firing Steichen or Ballard after the season, nor should they. They’d never get anyone to come here.

Daniel Jones was having a career year before he got hurt, that’s indisputable. That’s because of Steichen. Ballard built one of the deepest offenses in the league, with talent at every position. He leaves a little to be desired on the other side but no GM is perfect.
