Of course, that can be easier said than done. But I think that Anthony has worked real hard for this moment, and he has earned the starting job as quarterback of the Colts. I see Shane putting him in good situations to make him feel comfortable, which is critical, and I'm looking forward to them getting better as the season progresses."

I think that Richardson did a very good job of not forcing things, save for perhaps the 1 INT that he threw ...... he had numerous incompletions in the 2nd half in which it was clear that he was throwing the ball away ...... sometimes the best passes that a QB makes are the ones that he doesn't throw (when he either eats the ball for a sack, or he throws the ball about 15 yards out of bounds instead of risking an INT by trying to force the ball into double-coverage.)

So I had Richardson making good decisions 37 times out of the 38 times that he threw the ball yesterday ...... not bad for a rookie with expectations that are through-the-roof making his career debut in the NFL.
