I was listening to Chris Simms unbuttoned podcast when he was ranking the QB's and then also when he was doing his mock draft predictions and he was in essence saying he has immense physical traits, but has played so little, that the only way he is actually going to improve is to make the mistakes on the job, and that he needs to be thrown into the lions den from day 1.
Coaching, training camp, film study only does so much. He is so incredibly raw, but appears to have the right mental makeup to be someone who is going to succeed in the NFL. |

I’ll be surprised if he’s ready right away. Maybe later in the season, but not right out of the gate, especially if they’re gonna change his mechanics.
He’s got a lot to learn. |

I feel the same way. It's tough enough on rookie QBs, but he's much more inexperienced than most rookies. If he's put into the fire too soon, he may start relying too much on his athleticism and not learn all the necessary nuances of the position. I'm hoping they start with Minshew and have him on the bench right next to the QB coach Cam Turner. Then after at least 4 or 5 games, get his ass in there. Unless of course Minshew is pro bowling it.

On the Colts' first play from scrimmage for the 2023 season, I would like to see ...... Anthony Richardson throw a pass immediately to the wide receiver lined up on the right side of the ball, have that receiver run a few steps back toward the middle of the field, then have said receiver pitch the ball back to Richardson who will be running behind the receiver and away from the middle of the field, and then have Richardson run 75 yards into the end-zone. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M5Z9-QCmZyw o

In a vacuum, sticking him out there to learn is the best method, in my opinion. If you're worried about him losing confidence or whatever, I'd say he's not got the mettle you want in your QB anyway.
That said, I don't think the roster is anywhere close to as bad as a lot of fans think. If they think we can compete with Minshew at QB, I'd expect Richardson on the bench longer. I would think they'd believe winning week-to-week trumps the benefit of live game experience for Richardson. Now if Minshew is just straight trash... put the kid in and expedite the process. |

He needs to start immediately, you tailor the offense to what he can actually do. That's what i believe Steichen is very good at doing. You then slowly progress him as the season moves along and he gets more and more comfortable.
Without the live bullets i just don't see how he is going to gain any tangible experience to be able to properly develop. But you do need to make sure you are not asking him to do things out of his comfort level too soon. I don't mind 3 interception games, if he is making the right reads, or he is trying to make a play on the run etc, so long as he is then learning from these experiences and cutting them out for the next games. From all reports, he is a very strong character and football is his life, and he is completely dedicated to it. So it all feels like he is the perfect candidate to develop quickly. We need to lean on our running game, and using the middle of the field, whilst also trying to create space by throwing some deep throws to Pierce to stretch the field. Do that, and it creates more holes in the 10-15 yard range. Get 8 men in the box to stop the run and then try to utilise the space behind. |
