Anthony Richardson starts: It's Shane Steichen's call

[rm1369]

It makes sense to put AR out there to learn quickly as long as it’s behind a line that can allow him to learn correctly and not one that speeds up his clock, makes him over rely on his feet, and / or puts him at an increased injury risk. Play calling can help with that a decent amount, but the team needs to make sure the line has its shit together before putting AR out there. Ballard needs to find a better starting RG and add some better depth / competition.

Until the OL has its shit together I’d start GM and slowly work AR on. I wouldn’t throw him out there day one because of the line. You can’t go backwards without the narrative being he sucks, so let the line prove itself first. I personally have little confidence in any of them at this point.
