    • @mysteriousj3019
      @mysteriousj3019 3 месяца назад +2

      Right? "He didn't play very much in college". "He didn't have many great games in college". "He was always going to be a project with potential but low floor".
      Well, if all that's true, then why tf was he drafted in the first place? They had Peyton, then Luck, then the QB carousel before drafting him, and they thought they were masters of QB development? As if. They hoped they could pluck a piece of coal out of the pile and hope it was already a diamond when they ran it under some hot water.

    This is a problem the NFL has been dealing with the past decade or so with the rise of the "mobile QB". Many of them are basically RB's that can throw. It works in college because it's freakish talent that can carry over scheme. But in the NFL you need skill in all faucets of your position not just your niche. Richardson is just another one of these QBs that can't make the throws regularly and has survived on his athletic abilities. Now his team is running low on patience, he looks minimally better than the combine, and if they keep starting him they could be drafting his replacement. There is enough of a team there to push in the playoffs, I respect going for it rather than giving up with the division in reach still.

  • @rkleinfall
    @rkleinfall 3 месяца назад +24

    But this Colts roster doesn't care about what Richardson will be two years from now. They rightfully want the best chance to win now which means playing Flacco. Also, QB's are expected to come into the league and be successful much faster or sit on the bench behind a starter for multiple years and get better that way. Can't Richardson get better the same way Jordan Love got better watching Rodgers? Richardson is wildly innacurate and borderline unwatchable so it's understandable that they bench him at this point.

      Jordan love played 3 full seasons of college ball and got to sot behind a quarterback that was the best version of his playstyle. This colts roster isn't good enough to compete as is, if the Flacco led Colts lost to the Jags they have no shot at getting past the wildcard round. The only reason the benching makes sense is that its Steichen sending a message about the sit out. If it is performance based, colts should entirely rebuild from the ground up.

    • @ByGriPhone

      Colts ownership and fanbase just want to have a Manning or a Luck. But they also don't want to acknowledge that they cut Peyton (he won his second SB 5 years later) and Andrew retired a month before the season because he was so physically destroyed by the game. Colts are super impatient and are in the dumpster rn, while Packers seem to stick with their QB choices and it payed off so far.

    We don’t really know if he was benched because of performance or because of his post-game comments. That said, my 2¢ is that his comment was the tipping point. Colts want to win before the Texans run away with the division. Diggs and Nico are out, so if the Texans lose random games to the Titans and Jaguars in addition to their tougher matchups to the Lions and Chiefs, the Colts could still make the playoffs. Unlikely, but who knows.

When you have a JT in his prime, a Pittman, a Pierce playing good, ALL off the defense, you cant gamble them. We dont know how much longer they will play good and its not fair to them to sit and play over and over with no results just so a QB can develop (which he may not). Youre unfairly wasting the careers of other players.

You gotta make it make sense and I don’t think anyone in the NFL can. A .461 win % at UF Gators equals 👉 a current NFL worst 44.4 completion % !

Fourth has been quarterback gets us jack position in the draft one more year, while our one high pick is given up on. Let him play. He either develops and get's better, maybe get's the same mediocre season, and adds value to the pick for better trade potential, or he loses miserably, and we get a shot at a better pick.

Taking Anthony Richardson out of this game is just dumb, That's exactly what the play calling was in the last game, the coaching stinks, and remember, the Colts beat the point spread and only lost by 3 points against arguably one of the best football teams in the NFL.
