Looks like Richardson broke his finger

He had no idea how long he’ll be out but you definitely get the sense they’re rolling with Jones.

X-rays were good. He might not miss much practice time for this injury.

Colts QB Anthony Richardson who was declared out last night with a finger injury, had all his X-rays come back clean and will be back on the practice field in the coming days, per source.

Still very concerning for a guy with accuracy issues and fumble issues

Who was the RB on that play. If AR is looking left, that's the primary target area. A RB running a route to the right should have at least chipped the pass rusher, it seems to me.

Nah, it was AR's fault. Giddens ran the flat and should have gotten a quick pass from AR where that free rusher vacated.

With that front showing, the Sam/Mike three yards off, he should've been looking right first knowing that RB and Warren were not staying to block.

He started left, and lo and behold, the Sam/Mike came on the blitz, leaving Ojabo unabated with a rocket up his ass.

I think the RB probably should have chipped, but AR definitely was locked on to routes to his left and had no idea it was coming, and it wasn't even a blind-side hit. So the chip likely would have made no difference if the back did it

They confirmed post-game that it was a 5-man protection. Giddens was supposed to run the flat and be the hot guy if pressure came. Neither him or Warren were assigned to chip anybody on that particular call.

AR said he thought the Nickel was where the pressure might come from, so he never looked right.

Luckily there was no break or tear. He'll be sore, but he's not out. He said he couldn't squeeze right away, but after a few plays, he was ready to go back out.

Last night, looked like a typical Colts squad that is unfortunately, too frequently not prepared. Richardson should have read it, but he's also out there with a squad of complete roster fillers. It makes little sense to me that you appear to have gone largely full strength in the scrimmage but then when it's a bit more serious and freelance, when there isn't a script, you put him out there with only a couple other starters? Totally baffles me.

Tackling was again- dogshit! The penalties continue to be huge problem for this team.

Special teams, holy shit!

Yeah, not impressed at all with this team's execution in some real basics.

Yeah, so this is on AR. He should have read the hot, which was Giddens. Also, it looked like AR created the injury when he got into a hand fight with the Raven sacker (who cares what his name is). Watch at the end of the play when AR slaps the defenders hand away.

I'm starting to believe that AR will never be successful QB in the NFL.

Well, maybe this is the best case scenario. He gets rocked, hurts his finger to the point where he's taken out but it's nothing serious, and maybe, just maybe, he remembers to hit Giddens when he sees the unblocked guy coming to him.

Probably not, but hey, I still want to have faith in this guy.
