Anthony Richardson may never throw another pass for the Indianapolis Colts again, and I suppose that it's possible that Richardson confided in Carlie Irsay that he prefered to just hold a clipboard on the sidelines and collect a paycheck. But her insinuation about his lack of desire to play (if he wants to) doesn't necessarily prove that he doesn't have the desire to play. One of Richardson's questionable habits that I and others critiqued him for was putting his shoulder down and taking on defenders in non-crucial situations ...... such as 1st and 2nd downs. A quarterback who is too reckless in taking on defenders doesn't strike me as a gun-shy player and/or somebody who doesn't want to play football. If anything, it shows somebody who is a bit too eager to prove himself.

And yes, I know that he asked out of a game and later stated that he did so because he was tired, but as Omaha pointed out, that may have been him trying to cover up an injury because of all the criticsm that he had been getting for frequently being injured ...... and if that was the case, his cover-up was worse than the truth in the view of public criticism.

So, are you agreeing with me, that he may never be right physically to ever play QB?

Simms, being a former QB himself, may have a point. And if that's the case, I would hope that the Colts' coaching staff notices what Simms does, and tries to (at least slightly) adjust his throwing motion.

I like listening to PFT, with Mike Florio and Chris Simms. SImms is one the best analysts and talent evaluators out there when it comes to offensive skill position players.

Simms believes that AR will always have shoulder troubles, because his throwing motion is so violent and AR only relies on his arm and doesn't use his whole body to create the torque in his throws. I believe this to be true, because all of the best throwers of the football, who listed a long time would use their entire body to make the majority of throws.

As I have said before, move the kid to TE, and see if he really wants it.

I predict Jones does well enough that he is the starting QB all season, and they may try to use AR in a wildcat but if they do, he won't last 1/2 the season!

I am not being all negative, I think Daniel Jones is going to surprise some people and be very good for the Colts!

The small amount of film I have seen on Daniels in mini camp so far, he is threading the needle and hitting some dimes in stride. If he does that in camp and preseason he will be the starter and the argument is over.

I do not care which of them wins this competition, as long as the winner is effective in this offense. Get us to the division champion where we belong.
