Richardson didn't look like a 21 y/o rookie out there, especially against a playoff team (Potential AFC Champs ^_^ ). But the more game tape on him, teams will eventually find a way to slow him down significantly.

Look what we did to him with three quarters of watching him. That's not a brag, just a statement of fact about run-crazy QBs.
Can we also speculate, in a low murmur, that he is also fragile?
Tune in next time to, 'clots nation'.

I'll be interested to see how he does next week and moving forward as teams get more tape on him. That was my main concern with this game being week 1 and not knowing how Steichen planned to use him.

IDK what game some of the posters here and Colts fans were watching but I was rather unimpressed by everything except his athleticism. Once the halftime adjustments took away the screen pass he looked absolutely horrific throwing the ball. The more tape that comes out on him the worse it'll get, it seemed like he was only making half field reads and predetermined throws. I get that he's a strong athletic guy with a big arm but I didn't see touch, accuracy, or anything that really made me go "wow". Like I don't see the 2nd coming of Cam Newton I see at best a more athletic David Garrard.

Colts fans are being delusional, which I get. Same as some of us (me) with Minshew and even back to Blake and Gabbert.
As for us here, I don't know if any of us thought he played well, I think it's more we expected his second half struggles to show from the first snap and he didn't look AS bad as we expected early on. He still wasn't good and Colts fans shouldn't be brimming with confidence for the guy like they are.

Just wait - if the tacks carve out a little 2 or 3 win stretch we'll get a little influx of those poster children for affordable dental insurance and incest awareness. Doesn't take much to get their blood up. A couple decent games from Tannehill and Henry + a little bit of that sour mash Tennessee "I want to be Kentucky bourbon when I grow up" swill that they drink - they'll figure out their old passwords.
