Richardson injury is 100% on Steichen and his ridiculous insistence on having his QB play as a running back….

 

the warning signs were there the 1st 4 games..

history (look like guys like Cam, RGIII and even Lamar) show that long term  running your QB as an RB does not lead to any good in terms of long term health for the QB and yet here we are still calling QB draws even with two backs like Taylor and Moss who can carry the load.


Sorry, this is 100% on the organization and is unacceptable considering they clearly did not learn anything from what happened with Luck.

Noo

 

Your go up 7 there. Tere is no other option

 

If you had a timeout, you would go.  Titans get the ball to start second half - take the points.  

 

Steichen's a rookie, too.  He needs to improve as well.

How about Anthony just run out of bounds on that one. Wasn't much to be had on that play.

AR has to learn to fall or he might just be better off taking the hit.

 

Lucas Oil Stadium turf is not friendly for falls

I think that's the biggest thing. It's not that he needs to necessarily learn to get down more often and avoid big hits. He just needs to learn how to fall. All of his injuries have been because he fell really hard on various body parts.

Hope not, but I fear those 3 points sacrificed might be the difference in the game.  These decisions to forego important points, early in games especially, drive me crazy!


If we lose, we will lose by double digits, IMO

It could "just" be dislocated though, right?

 

I have dislocated my shoulder many  times. It is one of the most painful injuries.

 

I just saw it. It looks like a shoulder injury. That is how I have been when I dislocated my shoulder. It may require surgery. I chose not to have surgery but I am not an athlete.

Yeah, I've had my shoulder pop out, but it immediately popped back in by itself. Still hurt like a MF'er and was sore for a month.

The only thing about this is if AR misses significant time and we lose get a higher draft pick to go with him.

 

If his shoulder is destroyed and they get a high draft pick, they might go QB again.

Right. He just needs to learn to slide.

 

Instead hes initiating contact with the defense

    • It just seems like people have sold themselves the idea he was going to come out great this season which I think is and was completely unreasonable.   I hope to see some improvement by the end of the season, but I really don't expect a whole lot until sometime next season. AR has got so much catching up to do.   I mean, there's no doubt AR's struggles are affecting MPJ, but MPJ has never been a great separater and seeing a defender right besides MPJ is probably stopping AR from throwing his way at this point.   Also, to be clear, I'm not saying AR will DEFINITELY be great, but I do think we DEFINITELY don't know yet and people need to be a lot more patient with him.
    • They both couldn’t throw or work on footwork. To ignore this could be a possibility with AR is naive. Let’s see where he is by game 7. Especially when it looks like he went backwards  from last season.
    • Other than the fact that Luck was a proven NFL QB in his prime and that his shoulder rehab lasted 3x as long.   
    • His lack of experience was a well-known risk in drafting him and it's a big reason why some were skeptical (including me). On the flip side, it sort of seemed like people disregarded his lack of experience then in favor of things like potential and upside. But now he's struggling and it's showing. If anything, it's validated those initial concerns.   I tend to think WR drops following a QB from college to the NFL says as much about the QB as it does the pass catchers. But they need to do better. I think it will take a combination of improvements from both AR and the pass catchers.   Not sure if something is up with MPJ, but some "regression" this year was very predictable. At one point, I actually thought he might leave in FA when faced with prospect of re-signing with a run-first team and a young QB who is still learning how to throw short and intermediate passes (the area he operates). But he stayed...and I am glad he did. But if it continues, there are going to be a lot of people blaming MPJ, which is pretty ridiculous, when you think about just 6 months ago, people were talking about how great of a contract it was and that MPJ was a legit WR1 with AR.  
    • Last week,Rams home game, Sofi looked like a 49ers home game. Dallas and Vegas are that way too.
