This isn’t the end of AR, this is simply a bump in the road. I still believe in him and really think he will be great. But right now it might help him to see a proven vet go through the motions of being a starting QB in this league. AR is the future
Learn how to be pro? How about he learns how to be a grown man? How about he learns how to throw a ball 5-15yards? He's not the guy and kicking the can is what they've done for almost 10 YEARS NOW. Ballard has to go, hands down no questions asked. He's an lame duck mediocre at best right along with the rosters he's assembled
I just cannot fathom how you make this shortsighted of a decision. Your obligation is NOT only to win now; it's the long term viability of the team and to balance winning now and in future seasons. It takes time to develop a rookie QB and lacking that patience is just going to return the Colts to how they were under the previous mid-tier QBs. So frustrating.
Nothing but coach speak and lies. The Colts Way.
Im not convinced this was his decision.
That’s wtf Joe is there for he should have been teaching Anthony how to be a professional, and how to carry himself and handle himself as a Franchise QB.. but instead he would rather take the kids job instead of helping him develop like Mf your 40 ya time is ov
They made a Bad Pick 👎 It's not the end of the world
About time we benched the DEI QB
it’s about dam time you earned my respect back Shane because he needed benched weeks ago
Unserious franchise, fire shane and ballard. sell the team already old man.
Get. These. Reporters. Microphones.
Irsay wasn’t going to put up with another looseing season Ballards ass was on the line with his job they want to win now
I really didn't expect the team and Shane to let AR down like this. That play call at the end of the first half and the drops. Pittman not even turning around and trying to catch the ball twice. As far as tapping out, the training staff has also had criticism leveled at them. While I agree Joe gives the team a better chance to win, throwing your high potential QB under the bus for it is just so shortsighted.
Finally
What a massive fail and waste of money.
Almost a fight in that locker room and the players forced the coaches to bench him.. dude did the dummest chit ever by tapping out players faith in you alread started to diminish..At the end of the day the players would rather lose with flacco because hes not a quitter. I still remember steve mcnair played with a dislocated finger on his throwing hand and in a playoff game.. another game played with cracked ribs and threw for 350 yards.. yeah AR youre not worth hundreds of millions of dollars…. season ticket holders and colts nation deserve a better shot at winning games and that will be with flacco…
