Colts GM Chris Ballard said running it back was a mistake; won't promise he'll add free agents

In an article from MSN Sports, Indianapolis Colts General Manager Chris Ballard reflected on the team's strategy for the 2023 season, admitting that the decision to "run it back" with largely the same roster was a mistake. Despite this acknowledgment, Ballard did not commit to an aggressive approach in free agency to bolster the team. He emphasized the importance of finding the right players who fit the team's culture and system, rather than just spending money for the sake of it. Ballard also discussed the need for improvement across the board, particularly in quarterback play, offensive line, and overall team performance, but remained cautious about making promises regarding free agent acquisitions. This approach comes after a season where the Colts finished with a 9-8 record, missing the playoffs, highlighting the need for strategic changes without a definitive plan on how to achieve them through free agency.
