In my opinion (which is worth 2 cents): 1. AR himself: The one foot superman throws have to stop. I think teams have studied the film and are hip to it now. Last year, it seemed when AR would attempt them, it was against 1on1 situations, but this year it’s been a safety shadowing and there to pick off the overthrown ball. AR has to not try to depend on his athleticism and stick to the mechanics. Use the athleticism to create but use the mechanics to execute. Also, he needs to get comfortable with the amount of touch he puts on his throws, but that will and hopefully should come with experience and coaching. 2. Playcalling: last year, the playcalling for the small sample size we got is vastly different than this years. Last year, we leaned on zack moss and the run game and utilized ARs legs with designed runs, rollouts, etc. this year, it seems we’ve gone straight Air Raid with running sprinkled in. Shane says it’s because of the urgency to score quick to mitigate us losing the TOP battle by a wide margin. I think we should worry about that until it’s time to in the game. We shouldn’t be panicking in the 1st and 2nd qtrs when it’s a one score game. I’ve said it in other threads, AR shouldn’t throw more than 25 times. Maybe 30 tops depending on the game. And also, would like to see AR out of the pocket more. Keep the defense on its heels and guessing. 3. Not having JD and productive TE group: downs didn’t play the first 2 games and our TE room has been abysmal. Last year, you had guys like ogletree and even cox making some plays. This year, it seems all we have is the one flash per game from Granson. Not to mention, MPJ is off to a BAD year. AR doesn’t have any safety blankets. He doesn’t have someone he can fall back on when things downfield aren’t there. That should be MPJ but as I said above, MPJ has been bad. We just got downs back so they should be back cooking once downs get his game wind back. 4. Missing time due to injury: I stated in the offseason that the colts needed to utilize every opportunity we had to get AR reps in the preseason. We have the youngest and most inexperienced starting QB. Not playing him in the preseason that much held him back. Me personally, I would’ve let AR play every preseason game until he asked to come out due to soreness or whatever. so as you can see, I think it’s more to it than just “AR sux”. -

Maybe he's not much of a passing QB yet. But he's willing to get in there and do some dirty work for his teammates. That builds locker room camaraderie for sure. -

. I think we can win now with Flacco…maybe even have a shot at the big game if our defense improves. We can definitely win the division. Our offense is pretty stacked for Flacco….number one oline…..top 5 rb…..solid receivers. From what you’ve seen of Richardson do you honestly think he is a franchise qb with his accuracy problems? I see where you are coming from though. Everyone wants AR to pan out….i get it…...I just don’t think he’s a franchise qb. Not even sure if he’s a legit starter in this league. I will hope for the best though and root for him as long as he wears the shoe. -

Lot of things going on at that time. HC, ST Coach AND the return man…someone, anyone pull your head out of the tunnel of sensory overload. The kickoff was after a timeout as well. -

The way I see it, Chiefs will be #1 seed. So everyone will have to go through their winter infested field. 1. Chiefs 2. Bills 3. Texans 4. Steelers 5. Jets 6. Ravens 7. Bengals
