I will never get tired of hearing McAfee stay true to the Colts. A true Colt for life. Love, love, love Pat! Always a great listen.
Get him in the ring of honor
What Ballard mentions at about 10:00 is what sets coaches like Steichen and coaches like him fun to watch when he puts a team on the field. He adapts to his roster. It's great to plan for the players you'd like to have on the field and get the guys in the draft that you think will fill holes, but at the end of the day if you can't adapt your game plan to the players you have available you've already. Only a handful of NFL coaches seem to be able to pull this off. I hope we can retain Shane for as long as he wants to coach!
Ballard with another MASTERCLASS of a draft. 🐐 I’ll say it NOW. Lombardi coming back HOME to INDY, where it BELONGS baby!! As soon as next yr. AR5 WILL BE mvp candidate on our way to playoffs. #fortheshoe
The Colts record under Ballard is 54-60-1. Please don't hold your breath.
@@ryta1203 cope
That’s my GM *12 wins or bust*
7 seasons only 2 playoff appearances and only 1 post season win 😢 we've been busting out for a while
@@HUBBAxxTAPOUT yeah because our franchise was ran by an idiot and our division was alot weaker back then. Then we got terrible and other teams in our division got better.
@veldrensavoth7119 idk man I want to support him but the stats speak for themselves at this point
@@HUBBAxxTAPOUT that’s why it’s 12 wins or bust, because with his states if he can win a Super Bowl with *GuS Bradley* he can win 12 games. 12/17 isn’t that Hard.
@@veldrensavoth7119 well see I guess 🥲
I’m interested to see if Ballard learns from previous seasons. Where he has left a position group unaddressed. It’s cost the Colts in the past. You must exhaust every option to bring in additional depth to that secondary. The Colts are close and not is the time to push them in. Nice two year window maybe even three to win one.
Previous seasons were completely different gotta remember that, you cant go all out if we were rotating qbs for 6 or 7 of the yrs it just wouldn’t be smart, these next few seasons are where we see what hes made of he already rebuilt the roster from where it started
He mentioned that he’s looking at some Vets, and you can only assume he means DBs. Waited to see if they picked a DB early, and now have some decisions to make. Simmons would be a great Safety pickup for a year or two. Gilmore could also make a return for a year if he wants. He’s losing a little more every year at this point, but he’s still solid. We would be in a pretty good spot after that
It’s also payed off in the past. Recently with the O-line. Now it’s back to being good.
This is up to the DC in my opinion. We played so much cover 3 which is outdated in today’s league and doesn’t allow for a good display of talent. Hoping Gus makes a scheme change and allows the young guns to shine and prove how good they actually are
Well when you’re young star qb goes down, there goes the season. The colts were lucky that Minshew balled out like he did.
Yeah, Pat's draft day, extravaganza was the best draft day show.I've ever seen.Bill bellacheck was amazing
Laiatu will have 20 bags.
As a Colts fan, I'd be happy with 10.
Set the bar higher. Aim for Clay Matthew's hair 😂
Chris Ballard has shown he can draft every position well except QB. Richardson needs to be a home run or else he’s probably the next big fire
Perfectly said.
The way ballard said “okay” and accepted the challenge of cutting his hair when the colts win the super got me so excited. Go Colts!
Go colts
Chris Ballard can tell you everything and tell you nothing at the same time. Watching him work in interviews like this is fun.
The colts capitalized on the falcons mistake
Great 👍🏼
Northern Wisconsin? Have to get everyone some HODAG GEAR!
Goat GM
The best GM in the NFL.
8 years, 54-61, 0 division titles, 1 playoff win. No question, 😆 .
@@mikaelhaggard8031 I am a new Colts fan. Started last year. They did very well considering injuries and a new coach. This year they will dominate. What happened in the past doesn't count since I am making that claim based on today, not many years ago. He is the best GM in the NFL now (today). At the end of this year's season, that will become apparent.
@@AnthonyGiallourakis you don't get that title with that record.
Dammit Atlanta...smh.
I haven't been a huge fan of the Colts draft targets the last few years, but I think Latu will be one of the best defensive players drafted in years. I really think he will be that good. It's too bad you're still stuck with Anthony Richardson
Stuck with Richardson?
Get out of here with that nonsense. Richardson was outperforming stroud before he got hurt yet I’m sure you loveee stroud…
Lol AR is him fool
@la7era1u54 You smoking crack my boy
Ballard always makes me think he's trying hard and he wants to win but he's not really sure of his own ability. That's probably justified given the Colts record under his tenure.
IRSAY needs to fire this clown!
Troll much?
@@carrite 54-61, 8 years, 0 division titles. He's lucky to be there.
@@carrite what has he done good since he got the job? I’ll wait..
Dude acts like he’s won 4 super bowls. Bro better figure it out . . . Quickly
Seriously chris is pretty good at drafting. He made mistakes at quarterback,but honestly every team in the NFL has made mistakes at quarterback
@@linksaze3806stop it. Ballard sucks
He’s so corny and overrated. 0 AFC South titles
Cant be too hard on him...future GOATS CJ Stroud and Will Levis are in his division.
Titans and Texans will rule that div for the next decade
Coming from a mfer with a corny azszs name like that 😂 go study baseball
@@vitigaymer1053 Texans maybe but the tits? GTFO
@vitigaymer1053 Titans lol, thats a good one!
@@vitigaymer1053😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
We should have tanked then Chris. You failed to have simple foresight to realize COLTS ROYALTY was going in top of draft.
