The Indianapolis Colts’ season-opening non-winning streak is alive and well.

That’s why… Source link

Colts’ Carson Wentz problem is apparent, but will change happen?

At some point in failure, an NFL general manager like the Indianapolis Colts‘ Chris Ballard has to step to a microphone and show the firmest of grasps on the team’s situation. Think of it as the anti-Joe Judge moment, where someone in power holds a mirror up to their team and and bluntly reflects what everyone else can see — from the franchise owner, to the coaching staff, to the fan base that is pulling its hair out. Ballard had that moment Thursday, when he all but said what some in the… Source link
