Is Anthony Richardson showing signs of a maturity issue? | Pro Football Talk | NFL on NBC

[@iancarrey4123]

No he’s showing signs of not being good at playing QB. He wasn’t good in college and is the same player I was forced to watch at UF

[@buddysteele7624]

What Florio won’t admit here, nor will he ever, is that he’s speaking on Richardson like he knows the guy when in all reality I bet Florio has watched him play maybe twice on tv. He really knows nothing of Richardson on the field. He just steals whatever Simms says, and he does that for most players

[@jtmmmm27]

This type of behavior is exactly why the rookie wage scale exists...

[@carrite]

It's not a "behavior" thing, it's an "experience" thing and a "touch" thing.

[@jtmmmm27]

@@carrite No a QB subbing out because he's "tired" is a behaviour that you can't afford in your main leader as that will resonate throughout the team.

[@harvharvmurray7733]

J.T. O’Sullivan and Chase Daniel both breakdown QB performances in-depth on KZbin. When they breakdown AR, there is some optimism but he needs reps.

[@TWP13]

J.T. O’Sullivan is the GOAT of all 22 QB film.

[@davidporter7051]

and also Chase Daniels explains he makes the same mistakes again and again. That doesn't get better with snaps

[@jshumphress13]

@@davidporter7051I didn’t hear that in his most recent video, but I may have missed it.

[@carrite]

Colts team leaders expressed surprise in the change and support for AR: Buckner, Nelson, Kelly, Taylor, Franklin, and Flacco.

[@sleepyjoeb.8726]

In what world does Anthony think he’s a good QB? Answer not this one.

[@mykofreder1682]

The tap out is a distraction and irrelevant to him becoming a Lance. If he isn't studying, has a low completion percentage because lack of preparation means he does not go through progressions or find open receivers and locks onto guys or is looking to run. I don't think they are deluded, either they can't do it or they are afraid to try and stick with the follow my receiver down field so I don't lose him in the confusion. Every QB gets a grade on the Brady or Purdy scale of timing and play awareness and I think he is currently getting a failing grade.

[@SugarRushTimes2030-gs3qp]

You don’t make it to championships with over confidence and tapping out. Smh I’m an old man with hard work ethic all my life so I get to say that

[@timdyer7696]

By saying stuff like that, he's refusing to learn a lesson in humility.

[@jvanek8512]

That's the thing he's never said that. Florio is saying that he thinks he thinks that way.

[@Horndogthehorneddog]

Colts failed AR plain and simple. Picking him that early you need to make it work

[@junehanzawa5165]

They failed in picking him that high, period.

[@danieldougan269]

​​​@@junehanzawa5165 I agree, but given the position they were in, what should they have done? The Colts needed to draft a franchise QB. The next QB drafted after Richardson was Will Levis in the second round. He hasn't worked out all that well in Tennessee either. C.J. Stroud was already gone at #2 before the Colts even got to pick. So, he was never going to be an option. We were sick of them bringing in these washed-up veterans for years, so they knew they needed to build through the draft. 2023 was not a great QB class. Richardson was not going to be available later because another team was almost sure to take him if the Colts hadn't. It's not like the Colts were the only team that was willing to draft him in Round 1. I don't know what trade they could have made to get a better QB.

[@junehanzawa5165]

@danieldougan269 Trade back and get more picks. Look at all the players they passed over they could have had instead. Desperate picks get you nowhere but the bottom. For example, Arizona traded their pick just ahead of the Colts for two 1st round picks, a 2nd and a third.

[@ericaures4734]

In the rest of his post game interview, he basically said he’s playing well enough because he can run better than anyone else besides Lamar. He needs to focus on his accuracy and other things. I still think you give him a chance to prove himself but then I’m starting to see his character now. Not a Colts fan, so just hearing him for the 1st time. Hoped my team could get a young talent for nothing. Not sure he’s worth it after listening to him.

[@jvanek8512]

Really annoying how Florio puts words and thoughts in people. Unless you have him saying he's complete or whatever stop making it sound like that's what he said or thinks

[@khanhnguyen-tt3ff]

He used to be a lawyer

[@taylorrobinson4909]

Lol it’s like Garrett is working for Anthony Richardson PR team

[@jerrymyers7178]

Garrett is soft and weak, nothing but PR sound bites. Waste of time having him on! Richardson is overly arrogant, entitled, selfish and immature IMO!

[@jvanek8512]

Yeah he does come off as very fake

[@Horndogthehorneddog]

That many adjectives? Really? I think I know what you don’t like about him… You been waiting on this day haha

[@Reggie717]

Worst take ever. AR is very selfless. Hes helped ppl on the side of the road, hes stayed and cleaned up after rookie meetings, theres plenty of stories that hes a humble and selfless kid

[@bobbybill8323]

That’s a lot of negative traits to slap on a college-aged kid who made a few dumb mistakes, there’s plenty of stories out there about him generally being a good and well-liked person, he just needs a reality check and hopefully this benching can be that for him

[@ryu-ken]

Well he's still auditioning for a team

[@Jim-bq5do]

Bingo. It is between his ears.

[@IanSane]

The really great QBs will have a game where they play out of their minds and the game is lost because of everything but them and they say "I have to play better". Richardson plays objectively like crap and says "I'm a great quarterback".

[@charlesfaure1189]

Kid has zero self-awareness. A blown draft pick.

[@autumraider6796]

But if you said that before the draft, they’ll call you a hater

[@junehanzawa5165]

​@@autumraider6796I said it. I don't care what they called me. Said the same thing about Trey Lance, Josh Rosen, JaMarcus Russell, Akili Smith back in the day, etc. None were NFL QB's and had not business being drafted anywhere in the high rounds, if at all.

[@ericaures4734]

Hoped my team could get a young talent for nothing. Not sure he’s worth it after listening to him. “Feel like I’m a great passer”? If cut, he may not have many teams trying to put him on their practice squad. You kind of want him to find some reality that he’s going to have to really give it his all, year round. He needs Jordan Palmer this offseason to fix his mechanics. Justin Fields’ contract is up at the end of the year. That’s the guy that can do it all, that you go out and get.

[@xc.b3075]

Pretty good take by Garrett.

[@jvanek8512]

I can't believe the media making a mountain out of mole hill about tapping. If people aren't supposed the tap out then why does a process exist for them to do it.

[@davidporter7051]

you can stop thinking about anything competitive. Competition to be the best isn't in your nature. Bless your heart

[@TangibleAndroid]

Why talk to a guy who couldn't coach or play? Was only a yes man to Jerry Jones. Get this guy off TV.

[@taylorrobinson4909]

Garret is wrong about almost every single thing he says here.

[@floridajesus]

he’s done bro. i just don’t understand why the media is giving him the pass 😂 imagine if johnny manziel did ts or any other top qb prospect the media would eviscerate them with 0 hesitation. A-rich is 1000% a florida gators qb they do NOT produce winning nfl QB’s at UF. he has some serious personal issues and i highly doubt he will ever start a full season for anyone in his career. no hating but im genuinely shocked with how patient the media has been with this bs bro acting like a lil kid out there 😂😂😂😂

Who was that Texas QB who ran over USC for a championship?? Can't turn a running back into a quarterback.

Throwing your body into contact as a QB isn’t something to be praising.

[@mja91352]

Was that supposed to make sense?

[@justinfitch3782]

Lol watch film the WR dropped 6 passes that would have been a total of 150+ yards watch Dan Orlovsky break it down they were all good throws u gotta catch so if they catch those 6 passes stats way better

Sounds like a browns fan.

[@Travisjoe31]

Out of the 4 Qbs taken in the first 34 picks or so stroud is the only franchise QB. Most fail. Richardson was always a lotto ticket.

[@MG-ng7ng]

He probably feels entitled .

[@paulLawrence-ud9vn]

Texans fan colts QB thinks he can win games with his legs. you can't win games just with your legs. But im great full that we got CJ STROUD as our QB. let's go Texans
