Let er rip Riley
 

Riley Leonard is starting this week, I’m actually excited to see it and hopefully he can be our QB of the future

Good.

There’s almost zero chance he’ll be any good but this was the only option. Have to find out for sure.

I think that there's a chance that Leonard will play well this Sunday, primarily because he did play well when he was thrown into the most difficult of situations against the Jaguars after Daniel Jones went down with a torn Achilles tendon ...... I thought that Leonard played better than his stats showed in that game ...... I thought that he was robbed of a TD by the refs, and I also think that the refs robbed him by charging him with an INT instead of a completed pass on a simultaneous reception by the Colts' receiver and the Jaguars' defender.

Taking into consideration everything that happened prior to him entering that game, I thought that Leonard actually played well for a rookie QB with no experience coming into a pressure-packed game on the road in which the team was already significantly behind on the scoreboard ...... plus, as I previously stated, I thought that the referees did him no favors.


All of that said, I'm not claiming that he will play well this Sunday against the Texans ...... I'm asserting that there is a chance that he will play well.

I like it, even though I suspect he is bad at football. We already know AR is bad at football. At least my curiosity will be satisfied. Hopefully he shocks us. I still think the smart long term solution is signing Jones. He proved he is still capable before the leg, then the achilles.

Yep we certainly need to know if we need to be looking for a backup QB to step in while Danny rehabs. In draft or FA


I think AR is moved this offseason Hopefully we can get at least a 4 but doubt it

It seems odd that they're not starting Richardson, and seems like as good of an indication as any that the organization plans to move on from him entirely.

I get the sense that he’s not completely healthy yet. From what I gather, he very nearly lost his eye.

That's what I've taken from the whole cleared-to-workout thing. Like, you can do squats now and your eyeball won't leave.

Doesn't mean you can go straight to getting tackled again.

I have always been complimentary of Richardson's toughness, grit, and his willingness to put his shoulder down and take on linebackers in crucial situations.

Others have mocked Richardson because of his injuries, saying that he was made of glass ...... now we're just hoping that he's not going to need a glass eye for the rest of his life.
