Its hard to make any kind of judgment after two games. Just a spitball observation, his throwing motion looks weird. It's as if his entire body is moving/wiggling when he throws, instead of rotating a shoulder over a steady body and hips, and I don't mean when he's rolling out. Also, in both games, his plant foot has slipped on two or three different dropbacks when about to throw. One resulted in a TD to AP, but plant foot issues is a sign of poor lower body discipline. Basic stuff, IMO. -

Richardson reminds me a bit of watching some really big, muscular basketball players shooting free throws. They lack the touch to do it well - and look like they may not ever develop that soft touch. But I don't know whether that analogy really fits or not. And there are no doubt some really big, muscular basketball players who shoot well and have a soft touch. You could also think about the powerful home run hitter who can hit the ball a mile, but struggles at making consistent contact. He might practice forever at improving this, but will always be a low batting average, high strikeout player. Just because you keep practicing something - particularly something you've already been practicing a long time - doesn't mean you'll become particularly good at it. But there are also examples of athletes who become much more skilled as their careers progress. I think I disagree with people who say Richardson will definitely become a star and those who say he definitely won't. There's just no way of knowing if he'll improve enough on things like the ability to consistently throw a soft short-medium pass in the spot where the receiver needs to have it. -
This is my guess as well. that said, this thread is intended to talk about the good and bad of AR, so hopefully we can stick to the topic. Overall I see potential with AR. I think if the Colts are patient and just let him work thru his flaws, we might have something -
Both picks were on AR. AP was open and AR overthrew. AR didn't have to throw the ball to a covered Pittman, and if Pittman was a step ahead when AR released the ball, then the ball was placed behind Pittman, forcing him to slow down into the trailing LBer. There must be some strange limitation to JT that fans don't understand, because Frank also used him in a weird rotation. I think its about pass blocking, and he whiffed badly early in the game, and the formula says that when a team is behind late in the 4th, the passing game takes precedence despite the performance of the RB through three Qs. Just a guess.

Cowherd and his Podcast Co-Pilot were reminding his listeners that QBs generally never improve their accuracy...they struggle with it their entire career. And that using Josh Allen as an example might just simply create a lot of false hope. Just sayin'
