Ballard

[Chaka]

You can trash Andrew Luck all you want, but you have him to thank for us having Ballard. I seriously doubt Ballard would have ever come to the Colts if we didn't have Luck at the time. Recall that he turned down interviews from multiple teams (49ers, Jets, TB, maybe others), because he was waiting for the right situation. We happened to be able to provide that to him.

Then Luck unexpectedly retires a couple years after Ballard arrives, and Ballard STILL has us positioned to compete for the title a year later. All while managing our cap well with plenty of flexibility going forward.

We have the best GM in football in my opinion.
