He got tired. The QB? Lol

I can't believe this ****ing idiot came out on TV and said that he pulled himself because he was tired. The guy is getting raked across the coals for it. Saying that the players already are wondering wtf he is starting and not Flacco, then pulls this shit. Good luck being a leader when you have to pull yourself out for being tired at the QB position. ****ing twat.

I said this about Richardson pre-draft: "Anthony Richardson is a day 3 player to me. He's inaccurate. He makes bad decisions. He should have gone back to school for at least one more year and I'd argue he should have finished his collegiate career because he's simply not ready."

He's still not ready and probably never will be.

Da benched

So are they going to decide he's a TE? He'd probably be really good at that..

Colts have weapons.

He's got plenty of time to catch up on his rest now.

brother?

Sure would have been nice if the Colts benched this scrub QB before they played the Texans and not after.

With 23 seconds left in the first half Sunday, facing 3rd and 10 from his own 12 yard line, Richardson audibled out of a called run and threw an interception.

Instead of going into halftime tied, they went in behind because of that mind bogglingly stupid decision.

According to the local guys, that’s the biggest reason for the benching.

I understand why they took him.

I don't think I would've, but I get why they did.

But man, you can't throw him to the wolves like they did. His learning curve was always going to be super long and he needed to be humbled a bit (and needed to learn how to be an NFL passer).

He needed to sit a full season and last year didn't count due to the injuries.

When you see the guy in an interview admit that he pulled himself because he was tired and then talk about how he's actually a great passer if you just understand what kind of QB he is...lord, the lack of self-awareness and maturity just SCREAMS for a kid that needed to sit behind a vet for a season.

Is it even salvageable in Indy?

Personally, as a Colts fan, I don’t think it is. They got swept by Houston which means the division is essentially out of reach. They’re 4-4 right now and they’re hoping to squeak into the playoffs with Flacco. Which is possible, the way Flacco has been playing.

They’re not going to seriously contend with Flacco though, and going to him doesn’t solve the qb position.

And benching a quarterback to try and fix him doesn’t ever work.

This stinks of the owner getting involved.



Like the Jets, a terribly run franchise that doesn't let its football people do its thing.

Flacco is kind of amazing. Seems like he's been in the league forever, been relegated to a backup role also forever, yet he always seems to land places where he gets a chance to start again and makes the most of it.

They can make the playoffs..there's a lot of offensive weapons there.
