Opinion: The Most Fraudulent Team in the NFL

Dumbfounded. Sickening. Inexcusable. Unfathomable. Unacceptable. But surprised? Not me

There’s a few or few hundred things I need to get off my chest about this fraudulent team, so if you’re here to drink tears, here they are. 

So let’s talk about my (unfortunately) favorite team in football: The Indianapolis Colts. If you don’t know by now, The fraudulent Colts lost to the worst franchise in football, the Jacksonville Jaguars, 26-11 in embarrassing, fraudulent, and fitting fashion to let their playoff hopes slip away and ending their fraudulent season. Since the beginning of Week 16, all the fraudulent Colts simply needed to do was one thing: Win and you’re in the dance. Seems easy, doesn’t it? Not for this fraudulent team. Winning is hard in the NFL, but a week 16 matchup against those funny Raiders and in week 17 an even funnier Jaguars team, does seem like the ball is in your court, right? RIGHT? Nope, not for this fraudulent team.

Catching on now on to the word to describe this team?

Now I could let out a bunch of cuss words and I can yell and scream but I won’t. Actually, maybe I will, but they don’t deserve it. The first question I have is who is responsible for this mess? The owner, Jimmy Irsay? The head coach? Carson Wentz? The players? Everyone is at fault here, but there is one guy in particular who is responsible for this fucking disaster.  Whoops, I cussed.

THIS is on the GM of this team, Chris Ballard. So let’s take a look at his mess: 

  1. Traded a 1st and 3rd round pick for Carson Wentz (I don’t HATE this trade, by the way. There was N O T H I N G else)

  2. Gambled on 2 rookie edge rushers to go and attack the QB

  3. Provide no secondary depth (wow, you resigned Xavier fucking Rhodes. Thanks Chris)

  4. Gave no true WR2 to pair with Michael Pittman Jr. (wow, you resigned T.Y fucking Hilton. Thanks Chris)

  5. Failed to address the LT situation and gambled on Eric Fisher coming off a torn achilles who’s been a disaster all season.

Now Chris Ballard, for the most part, has done an excellent job at getting talent from the draft, but his philosophy is to never spend money on Free Agents and building from the draft. I mean hey, the fraudulent Colts had 7 fraudulent pro bowlers which led the NFL but look at what happened to that, Chris. Those 7 fraudulent pro bowlers made Trevor Lawrence look like an All Pro QB. Those 7 fraudulent pro bowlers made Marvin Jones look like the second coming of Terrell Owens. Those 7 fraudulent pro bowlers scored 11 points. Those 7 fraudulent pro bowlers lost you your season. But hey, 7 fraudulent pro bowlers!

Nobody is going to get fired and for some God forsaken reason, I still believe this is fixable. But when you stand there and piss down your leg in front of fans who dressed up in clown costumes in Jacksonville, it kind of seems like… I think you guys can finish that punchline. What a terrible season this was and don’t tell me it wasn’t because of the Patriots, Bills, and Cardinals games. Or the Jonathan Taylor season or the Michael Pittman Jr. breakout season. None of that matters. Because I always saw them for what they are: Frauds.

What’s really stomach churning is the fact that the Eagles got rid of Carson and not only will they be preparing to make a playoff run, but they also have a 1st and 3rd round pick at their disposal. Luck set this franchise back not just a few years, but decades. But that excuse has expired since the day he retired. The number one priority should be addressing the quarterback position this offseason but there’s one thing I can tell you, any move that this team makes, is the wrong move. Now we wait and see what the fraudulent Colts do next. Tick…Tick…Tick…
