The Indianapolis Colts chose not to do what nearly a third of the NFL did this offseason and fired their head coach. Shane Steichen still has his job, as does general manager Chris Ballard. Many Indy fans likely feel as if one of the two needed to go; it was Ballard.
After all, Steichen has only been able to work with the players Ballard gives him. The GM has had his job for nine seasons, and only twice the team has made the playoffs. It has never won the AFC South. Steichen is 7-22 against teams with winning records, but he gave fans a glimpse of what his offense could do early in 2025.
