Colts fans want Ballard fired into the sun after watching Baltimore hang 41 with two first-rounders on the field.
The emotional rollercoaster
Fan misery across the game window. Up is worse. ● biggest swings
What happened
D.Jones threw a pick to R.Smith on the opening drive and things somehow deteriorated from there, with L.Jackson carving up the secondary for a 54-yard Z.Flowers touchdown and 41 unanswered-feeling points at home. J.Taylor's short score was a rounding error. A defense built on two traded first-rounders surrendering 300 passing and 100 rushing in Week 1 isn't a slow start — it's the same movie Indianapolis has been watching for a decade.

▶ 0:34⚡ swing#Ravens superstar Lamar Jackson signing autographs in the bowels of Lucas Oil Stadium after cooking the #Colts. I’ve never seen that phone-carrying thing he’s wearing around his neck. Gives off a lot of unc vibes, but hey, two-time MVPs can do what they want. 🤷🏾♂️😂
