This Indianapolis Colts’ Anthony Richardson film study was WILD

Let's talk about Anthony Richardson's rookie season, which might have ended abruptly, but taught me so much. This was a story I didn't expect to enjoy as much as I did, but man what a ride. Thank you for checking it out!

Great take as a colts fan I appreciate your take man a lot of people don’t see what I see I see an elite talent just waiting to bust out of a cage and my friends think he’s just a rb

[@AlexandtheNFL]

Thanks man I 100% agree! Film doesn’t lie

@@AlexandtheNFL "Challenge accepted." I wasn't planning on leaving this reply (I was about to ask the person who made the comment if they Just Forgot all that stuff about Steichen scheming it do AR5 _could_ progress like that). But there's another QB I feel is on the same tier as him that has been undone by his play-calling or so I claim. But for some reason everyone refuses to look at it. First, Caleb Williams is supposedly better than them all. Yet the other QB shown in kzbin.info/www/bejne/a3uyYoOpqtV5lbc is _clearly_ more accurate & a better rusher. He also has the ability to fling the ball 50+ air yards with a flick of the wrist as well thread the ball between defenders to hit targets kzbin.info/www/bejne/d3fTqoimnNWrmas in a way that one normally needs to watch Dan Marino highlights to see. Yet this QB gets blamed for every bad thing that happens to his _team._ Weeks 8-10 of '22 the team Led Thew League in scoring but lost all 3 games. "This proves he can't win" was what people said. The play at 22.45 of kzbin.info/www/bejne/fJrMfGVni998ldE happened more than once this game, in other games as did all the plays prior to it where the o-line simply allows multiple pass-rushers through unblocked. "He holds onto the ball too long" is supposed to apply to QBs in clean pockets with open receivers. He's blamed for not dropping the ball while avoiding sacks his own teammates set him up receive. Can you imagine Tom Brady succeeding with those o-line plays? That's just what's on film. There's more that isn't. I've been asking around. The fact that no one answers this makes me think I'm onto something. Does PFF or any other grading system even count blocks that o-linesmen don't attempt? Because how else can the Bears play like that & be rated anything but dead last? There's still more. But that's plenty. Either play-calling matters or it doesn't. Either Shane Steichen has No Effect on AR5's progress or someone needs to explain how a different set of play-calls used to make the Bears the #1 offense in the entire NFL got cancelled & they returned to using ones proven to fail. It's an idea for a longer-form study than you're used to making. But if Fields gets to start this season & proves it all right, won't _you_ look prescient?

[@RipliWitani]

Still won't beat a real QB like Stroud

[@matrixxblood]

As a colts fan also. The man hasn't made it through a season without some sort of injury. It could very well be due to genetics. I hope this is not true because him and steichen can do something special.

[@TheJayRobins]

@@RipliWitaniwas beating stroud in Week 2 by scoring 2 TDs in the first 5 minutes of the game. Would have likely beat Stafford in OT had the coin flip gone his way with how well he played that 2nd half.

[@INDYTEKKIN]

11:27 This pass to Alec Pierce you mention was on a rope, AR was also getting hit at the same time he threw it, and the guy hitting him was Aaron Donald. Not just your ordinary defender.

[@AlexandtheNFL]

You’re absolutely right, didn’t spot it!

As someone who does film reviews myself, I enjoyed watching yours, as you come at it with a different approach than most. It was also obvious you actually put quite a bit of thought and effort into to it.

[@keenynman34]

Okay this was actually a fantastic breakdown from a neutral base. Im glad you're cheering for his success. I think hes in the perfect place to grow.

[@AlexandtheNFL]

Heck yeah! Thanks for the feedback dude 🙌🏻

[@craiglortie8483]

what a lot of people don't see are the 2 snaps that ar and jt had last year. just 2 snaps, think of the over reacting the defenses will be doing when they have to pick which one they want to defend against!

Great point! This was something I forgot to mention in the video. Him and JT were only active together for the Tennessee game. Crazy

@AlexVenuse ive got tickets to opening game against the evil 😈 texans .

[@jimmie_g]

Excellent breakdown and film study. That play that ended his season was on first down. There should never be a designed OB run on first down so early (or really at all) in a game. Especially when Jonathan Taylor was back. AR already said he doesn't plan on changing his playing style, which kinda scares me.

[@AlexandtheNFL]

You’re 100% right! Thanks for checking it out brother, I appreciate it!

[@Coltsfan421]

This take every so called colts fans should watch as well as some so called professional analysts. Maybe it would silence there claims and presumptions..

[@trapsquadd4347]

Call me old school but I believe that a qb legs should compliment his arm not the other way around 🤷 this could be the reason he only started 3 games. I just don’t see it, maybe because there isn’t enough game film.

[@user-hz4sd1zi9l]

He is pass first

[@yazfit]

Where’s Alex n the nfl gone

[@cellmate1]

Runs too freaking much!!!! when you have more running touchdowns than you do throwing touchdowns, you are not doing your first job!!

[@AlexandtheNFL]

Certainly a valid point early on. We’ll see how that looks this year

[@RipliWitani]

Nah AR is terrible. He was injury prone in college and injury prone as a pro. Dude is already injured again.

[@ZuluGamingSeries]

He got cheap shotted he’s the most athletic QB to ever be drafted, give the guy a chance Peyton mannings first season was terrible Same with alot of other guys AR Got injured by the same team both times By cheap shots by the division rival Texans (the colts own the Texans) the guy was clearly mad AR was running on them all game

[@DustyTail]

Get strouds thing outta ya . It gross.

[@sterlingwooten2153]

Ngl I’m a little worried when I click on a football video and here a commy accent but I’ll hear em out cause go colts

[@JohnSmith-ct2yc]

my first thought was along the same lines, but why call him a commy? I hope you know the UK (assuming thats where he is from) isn't communist and you're just trying to be provocative but after listening for a minute , it's clear he's not just talking out of his ass. If you loved the sport i would think you'd be happy to see it growing and not wanna throw shade on a fellow fan of it just cuz he's not american

[@AlexandtheNFL]

Appreciate this comment John. Sadly, whether intentional or not, I tend to get that sort of comment quite a lot. Thanks for seeing it a different way 🤝🏻

[@JohnSmith-ct2yc]

​@@AlexandtheNFL Ppl are more likely to spew bullshit over the internet than in real life I find. Dont take them too seriously cuz your life's biography/where you are from has nothing to do w your fandom, or appreciation for a sport. If you like football, then you like football, only someone spewing bullshit would discourage you from expressing it. I clicked on the vid/found ur channel cuz ima Colts fan. ill tune back in sometime now

[@WyattStone-lx5wc]

Love this video. I went to that rams game and we were considering leaving at halftime. Richardson is truly a gem in the game to watch and if he stays healthy heads will turn to watch him and stroud run the south

[@AlexandtheNFL]

Thanks man! I can’t wait to see what he’s gonna do this year

[@jamescrawford5330]

Thank you for a wonderful film study!! Just like the other teams in the AFC South, the Colts will be improved in 2024. The parity in this division is palpable, but as always, will depend on QB play. I think the Colts made a fortuitous decision in signing Joe Flacco!! Wish AR the best in playing a full season, but now we have a backup that has proven success. I think this combo will be very successful under Steichen’s management. Heading for the Playoffs!!! 🙏👏👏😎🇺🇸

[@AlexandtheNFL]

Thanks for checking it out man! Really excited to see how the season goes for you guys! 🙌🏻

[@RipliWitani]

NFL won't let Irsay win a SB. Dude is now the worst owner with Snyder gone. Dude threw Manning and Luck under the bus when they had major injuries

[@nunya2162]

This kat is trash jus watched him against tha 3rd team defense an hes not it at all - hes tha 2024 fantasy draft poison pill an I laugh when folks take him on early side when he should be a backup at tha very least in fantasy js ✌🏾

[@Cracktune]

good stuff. Im not all that sold on AR (Colts fan here). I hope this is the worst take in all of football 5 yrs on but, going back even to HS he has had health issues.. I really hope I am wrong. Great vid.

[@jamescrawford5330]

I want to bight my own tongue when I say that I believe Joe Flacco will earn every penny of his contract this year. AR has to prove that he is smart enough to get down or slide and do everything possible to extend his longevity. I don’t want to see us in the QB market next year!!! 🙏🙏😎🇺🇸

[@AlexandtheNFL]

Thank you sir! We’ll see how he does in 2024!

[@justinedmundson4775]

It should be illegal to only have 4.3 l subs dude I really hope you make content like this mixed more with fantasy takes. I love using these videos and videos from guys like Brett Coleman to help me find out players and offenses that I like and then have you guys just take what I’m seeing to another level with your ability to break things down. So good brother fan for life just do more takes do achane and mostert backfield next… then mybe what you see for the chargers the Jordan loves big jump. Just more modern day stuff like this.

[@AlexandtheNFL]

Man this is crazy thank you so much. A comment like this is extremely motivating. Love what I do and Brett is a huge reason for me doing it. His videos are brilliant and there isn’t enough of that kind of thing around Going to be hitting the season HARD! 🫡

Thank you sir!

[@derekpeter7950]

First off, ULTRA clean takes, quality, sound, ALL of it. Thank you for this! It’s clear you have a passion for analysis and based on this small but insightful sample size, who would you compare AR to skill ceiling and results wise? I’ve heard so many RG3, Cam Newton, Fields, Malik Willis comparisons. How is AR different than these guys?

[@AlexandtheNFL]

Man thank you so much for the feedback. I really appreciate it! AR is closest to Cam, but he has a far better throwing ceiling than Cam did coming out of college. I don’t think he’s as durable though. The ideal scenario for AR is exactly what Jalen Hurts has been. Runs when he needs to, occasional designed runs, but mostly a play action offense that allows him to flourish

[@Russell_Sailor]

Love it

[@AlexandtheNFL]

He’s just as impressive off the field as on too! Minus that last 5 year stretch of plug in qb play, as a Colts fan, we have been very fortunate and I am grateful for having elite level qb play. With AR’s short introduction out of the way, I look forward to the next a 10-15 chapters, in what already looks to be, a legendary tale.
