If Flacco wasn’t mentoring AR that’s not something you can blame him for, it’s almost guaranteed he wasn’t brought in to do that. Which to me just further highlights how fucking stupid Ballard’s philosophy is and how much he has fucked AR and this team in general.
Of course Chris Ballard started cutting vets. He inherited a team that, apart from Andrew Luck and a few others, was talent poor.

Looking at the roster

The Good:

TY Hilton
Anthony Castonzo
Ryan Kelly
Andrew Luck
Jack Doyle who was a 2nd stringer under Pagano

The Old:

Frank Gore was 34
Mike Adams was 36
Vontae Davis was only 29, but he’d only play 6 more games in his career
D’Qwell Jackson was 34
Robert Mathis was 35
Joe Reitz was 31

The Ugly

Donte Moncrief
Jonothan Harrison
Hugh Thornton
Dwayne Allen
Chase Coffman
Kendall Langford
David Parry
Zack Kerr
Erik Walden
Sio Moore
Patrick Robinson
TJ Green
