lennymoore24 Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 I find it so funny how everyone is going out of their way to elevate this guy and his play. Venturi raps up game by saying how impressed he was wtih Richadson. ha What a joke. You mean the guy who threw a terrible interception and threw a number of balls either too high or off target? Sorry, just because we spend the number 4 pick on a QB and HOPE he becomes good doesn't make him good. He is and will always be what she showed in college. Which is he has great athletic skills. But he makes bad decisions, has terrible ball placement, and is inaccurate. I have never, ever seen a running QB who played one year of college football, have a losing record, barely completely over 50% of his passes, get into the pros and become a good passing QB. No Josh Allen didn't play one year of college football. Sorry. I have been a Colts fan since they were in Baltimore. I love the Colts. But I am not going to drink the Kool-Aid and just because the guy was a high pick, cheer about how good he is. If Sam Ehlinger had that same performance, we would probably say he should be 3rd string. It was a wasted pick, he is going to be a terrible failure as an ACCURATE, GOOD DECISIONS NFL QB, and I will look back at this 2-3 years from now when they have to clean house as him being what finally took it down. It is too bad, because I think Ballard is a good GM and I think Steichen could be a good coach. Gardner Minshew is clearly as better all around NFL QB than Richardson, but Irsay won't allow that to happen. Sad. Oh well, Art Schlichter needs company as a bust #1 QB pick for the Colts Richardson will never come close to be anywhere near Jeff George's overall career. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teganslaw Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 lennymoore, you're judging a guy on one quarter play? I thought he looked good in his debut. Of course he made mistakes and will continue to do so at times. He threw some nice passes and they could have scored after he rushed near the goal line if it weren't for the penalty. Give Richardson a chance! 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yoshinator Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 Richardson got unlucky twice. Once on the drop by Pierce, and the other for the INT when McKenzie ran the wrong route. He was good otherwise. I'll wait until preseason is over before panicking (unless he gets hurt first). 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Shive Posted August 12, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 12, 2023 This feels less like "Richardson is bad" and more like "I don't like Richardson and I'm using the few negatives of the one quarter of his first NFL action to cement my position". He didn't look anywhere near as bad as you've made him out to have been. He had the INT and a couple of incompletions, but he also had a gorgeous would-be TD pass dropped by Pierce that literally couldn't have been in a better spot. Glad to see a preview of what to expect from you this season. 15 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeee Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 I have been silent for a long time and with good reason. I, for one, did not want Richardson. With that said, I think he might just be okay or better... EVENTUALLY. What is going to hurt him IMHO is our receivers. Downs is legit and should be starting over Mackensie. Pittman and Pierce, absolutely not. <these two are WR2b and WR3. We have been voided of true receiver talent for a long time. We NEED receivers in a bad way. Colts need to let Pittman get paid elsewhere and in a couple years Pierce can move on too. These two will have flashes from time to time but never consistent enough to actually matter. It wasn't just lack of QB play as Nuk never had a QB for years b4 Watson and was putting up mad numbers as one example. Stop giving these JAGS a pass. They cannot gain separation most times and that's the problem and if it's not them, it's the scheme because we all remember when manning was here, and every receiver and TE were ALWAYS open. These guys are just not. Granson and Downs shined today for me, along with my boy DJ. Jackson is legit. Free Deon..Ha!! The drop by Pierce is inexcusable. I won't be posting much or commenting as I personally want to see this pan out and hope AR can grow and become what everyone should want. Hopefully, we can secure a top two pick next year because we need Marv Jr in the worst way but AZ holds the Texans #1 too so it might not be attainable3. Anyway, accuracy does need to be improved, duh, but overall, I thought AR was fine. Go Colts! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roosarioo Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 He had a couple of overthrows that got away from him on short routes but that’s to be expected, he was hardly going to fix all his flaws in his rookie offseason. The aim is to show improvement this season then go out and get him a true WR1 this offseason through a top 10 pick in the draft or go out and trade for one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post krunk Posted August 12, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 12, 2023 Did any of these rookie QB light it up so far? The expectations some of you have, especially when you were told from the jump that it's not about what he is today and more about what he can become. I liked just about everything I saw from him other than the interception and him still needing to work on his touch and ball placement. Im wondering how the OP felt when Andrew Luck kept sailing balls high at different points of his rookie season? I definitely didn't walk away from this contest thinking he couldn't get better as we move along. 9 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn’t watch the game bc I was working but was wondering how he looked. I fully expect him to struggle and we won’t know how good he is for 1-2yrs.

DougDew Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 I mean, I think that drafting a Qb on athleticism and potential at #4 is a clear over draft, but he seems to have performed exactly how it was expected, with maybe some unexpected praise for poise and composure. I think poise and composure goes a long way at this point. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
