AR threw a 40 yard dart with Donald on him. I know that doesn't sound all that spectacular, but he threw that using only his arm, no legs no shoulder, just his arm. That's an amazing throw. The guy is a dynamic athlete.
Bro seriously. Some of the things he's doing I haven't seen since Luck, which is already super hype. But that? I don't think Luck could even do that. Dude is a monster.
@AllUpOns13 Luck could absolutely do that. I remember once when Luck launched a perfect deep ball while being tripped. Don't even try to disrespect Luck in an attempt to praise AR lol
I think his best throw of the day was actually an incomplete pass. 6:43 back shoulder throw in the clutch moments of the game to the young tight end who ended up dropping the pass. If caught, would have been a 3rd down conversion sending them into near field goal range for a game winning attempt.
Some inaccuracy but also some big-time throws that were incomplete but not AR's fault: 6:45 Perfect back shoulder ball placement, absolutely should have been caught 4:21 From the All-22 angle, this is a PERFECT throw to Pittman but it appears that the LAR defender gets his hand into Pittman's facemask and disorients Pittman 4:40 Tough throw but it did his Granson in the mitts
6:45 far from perfect placement. If it was perfect the DB wouldn't have been able to get a hand inside to break it up. 4:21 Pittman was wide open a long time ago but AR doesn't see it and essentially throws a jump ball because he was too late.
@@jimmie_gIn no way shape or form should a throw that's at or behind the LOS be off target like that. Yeah it should be caught but thats just an example of AR's poor accuracy.
@@sekaikage geez, he's 21 years old, started 13 games in college and is playing better than anyone expected, but there's always those people who already expect him to be playing like Tom Brady in his prime. He'll only get better.
No need to throw darts at your back when he's 5 yards away. If it's behind him (which it was) it becomes a very hard ball to catch. His arm is so darn strong it looks like he's throwing a nerf ball but there is a time to throw bullets and a time to take something off it and put touch on the ball. He has a very high drop ball percentage. @@jimmie_g
If AR can adapt and learn to make adjustments in the pocket but also plant/set his footing more often, he could throw alot more accurate passes. He tends to throw on the run when he really doesn't have Noone on him. In time he will build that awareness and become alot more comfy inside or outside the pocket. And that's when he will be dangerous.
That's his downfall. Throwing on the run or off his back foot is a bad habit he has. especially when he doesn't have to. His accuracy will never get better until he corrects that.
Throws the ball too hard on the short passes. Stefan Diggs had to tell Josh Allen to not put so much mustard on the ball when it's a short throw. It's cold in Buffalo and if the pass is not right on target it becomes a difficult pass to catch.
I think when Jelani Woods comes back it’s gonna be on. Woods has star potential at the tight end position, and can be a safety option for Anthony. Serious, talking potential Pro Bowler there, could help open it up for the receivers.
Colts as a team got assaulted by the Rams in the first half. Richardson got right out in the second half and drove the offense down on some nice drives. Not the best day for the Colts WRs including Michael Pittman Jr. Felt pretty good about Richardson overall. What I want to see is progress. After all this was his 2nd complete NFL game coming in with the least amount of college QB experience of the top drafted rookie QBs.
I've noticed that Richardson is like Manning in a sense that in the first half he'll be down but once the second half starts he has downloaded the information and starts picking apart defenses
I see a lot of good things from AR. The athleticism is undeniable. I have to say I am pleasantly surprised by the quickness of his decision making. I also don't feel like he is as sloppy with the ball as many said he would be coming out of college. He definitely makes the Colts exciting to watch!
@@NFLStudy The great decision making and pocket presence were all over his college tape. People saw a few wild passes a game and just assumed he was an inaccurate and poor decision maker. But he actually sees the field well and makes great decisions. I think he is just getting better coaching here at the NFL level and is in a MUCH better offense. The inexperience that he was often dinged for in the draft process means he doesn't have a ton of bad habits that are entrenched in his play.
The quickness of his decision making definitely stood out to me. Especially considering his lack of starts in college. Seems like colts and texans got steals compared to panthers and made the much better choices in qb. Especially considering bryce young's small build. Any thoughts on that?@@NFLStudy
Easy to point out open guys when you’re sitting comfortably in a seat watching the field from an overview and not with Arron Donald in your grip every play lmao
what a beautiful rookie season we got robbed of can’t wait to see him compete in the AFC for the next decade.

@@AllUpOns Luck could not do that. AR just needs to stay on his feet and the Colts got the real Luck.
4:52 is an insanely athletic throw. Great arm strength while being tackled.

Then there's the drop by McKenzie at 0:15. At 4:45, it's a bit high, but definitely catchable. He could've easily been 16 of 25.

This is a rookie coming to life.
Really cant waitnto see this team go off
Why couldn't Granson catch that last one?
The other angle shows that the defender had his arm in there and broke up the pass. Great defense on that play.
Looks like the defender got his arm in front of it just in time

I like the slide on the first play
Yup he's learning
The entire arena cheered when he slid. Lol
His throws on the run have not been seen by an Indy QB since Luck.
That's his downfall. Throwing on the run or off his back foot is a bad habit he has. especially when he doesn't have to. His accuracy will never get better until he corrects that.
Are you blind...? Some of those throws the receivers were caught @@kingkamanakai9940
Throwing on the run isn't an issue throwing off back foot is.
Need richardson to play like this
Maaaan AR5 is a bad ******* cant wait to see JT come back in the fold.
Almost every drop was on the receivers. He put it exactly where it needed to be

Colts need to trade for a WR at or above Pittman’s level to pair with Pittman. Pierce, downs and McKenzie are quality depth pieces this point.
Either that or draft one first round. I've heard this is a nice WR class.
I think when Jelani Woods comes back it’s gonna be on. Woods has star potential at the tight end position, and can be a safety option for Anthony. Serious, talking potential Pro Bowler there, could help open it up for the receivers.
Downs a “depth” piece not aging well at this point🫣
@@RealBraedonW1 All you have to do is flip Downs with Pierce in my original comment and it will age spectacularly.

AR finally know how to slide.😂
Its safe to say Colts always drafting the best QB FIRST PAYTON MANNING NOW A BLACK MAN ANTHONY RICHARDSON.
The throw to Pittman in end zone would’ve been a td if he didn’t get his face mask pulled lost track of ball and would’ve been a crazy td
Both TEs TD
Wait till this rookie gets composed and has JT on his options and play actions. SCARY
That was the Colts game to lose.
Colts had like 6 drops holy crap. Richardsons percentage def doesnt reflect how he was throwing the ball. Just a few bad throws. Ugh
And importantly, he is keeping the Colts in games. Exciting future for him, no doubt!
He gettin Florida flashbacks with these drops
crazy arm strength. and built like derrick henry haha. if he sees a couple open guys better they might win. what do you think?

No shit he got injured did you see 1:20 ??
He misses open guys I was at this game and pointing at open guy

This is rigged, Pittman basically running away from the ball. I feel Colts could had 1 this game.
Tebow 2.0, and thats a compliment
