Anthony Richardson benched

As much as we suck, man that’s gotta be frustrating for Colts fans. The ability is so clearly there but he just doesn’t have the makeup for it.
 

Taking himself out of the game for what everyone knew would be a handoff says more to me than the stat line tbh, as I think it speaks to his unlikelihood (or likelihood, depending on how you look at it) of ever putting in the work necessary to meet his potential I don’t think he really understands the magnitude and responsibility of being QB1 for a franchise.  Also said he was a “great passer” and it’s just like…read the room man.

 

Def reading a lot into a small series of events but it does seem like what will be a deciding moment of his career

They had to sit him after his comments last week. And with that, I’m guessing he’s not going to be too happy about this benching. Wouldn’t surprise me if he tries to get outta there. 
 

Stroud was the only one worthy of the 1st round.

He might be trending Jamarcus Russell if he thinks he is a great passer. 

Yeah, he needs to be on the bench for a WHILE.

They rushed it with Richardson. He was always a high upside raw talent that needed to sit and eased along. We would've been a good spot to develop him honestly since we had Dalton, but we would've needed some coaching stability. 

Without the Tepper factor, we would be a good spot for that. 

Yeah that 2023 draft, no one thought Levis or AR were up there with Stroud. It was clear who the possible guy was in that class.

    • Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.
    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
    • Well, we got our answer on Army today.
