Process Posted October 29 Posted October 29 0% chance Bills would lose to Richardson, McDermott would have shut him down. Not concerned either way, but this is relevant with us playing them next week. 1 1 Quote
Captain Hindsight Posted October 29 Posted October 29 Seismic decision is a bit much. He has been bad and then tapped himself out of the game. I surprised they didnt keep him out sunday. I love Richardson's tools, but man he has been bad 2 1 Quote
14774 Posted October 29 Posted October 29 Not surprised, since AR is in way over his head. Can't/won't stay on the field, terrible passing percentage and not a leader. Quote
Simon Posted October 29 Posted October 29 I haven't seen them in a while. Have the Colts continued to maintain a good OLine? Because they are going to need it. 1 Quote

I surprised they didnt keep him out sunday. I love Richardson's tools, but man he has been bad The NFL is a tough place to get live gameday experience. Dude has plenty of physical tools, but has not played that many games. I agree with OP, 0% chance we lose to Richardson. Flacco gives them a shot at the upset. 4 Quote
Charles Romes Posted October 29 Posted October 29 Should be able to get at least two turnovers against Flacco. A good pass rush is a great one when the qb is pushing 40. 1 Quote

davefan66 Posted October 29 Posted October 29 Taking himself off the field was not a smart move for the dude. 3 4 Quote
Bills aPHILLYate Posted October 29 Posted October 29 It's wild because Josh as his comparison point is the exact reason he is having the career he's having so far. Not every qb with comparable measurables is just gonna come into the league and replicate what Allen has done. Fortunately we struck gold because a lot of teams are using our success story as a baseline metric for hope with some of their qb picks 5 1 Quote

Cray51 Posted October 29 Posted October 29 The Bills actually do pretty well defensively against pocket passers. Flacco has no mobility. It will be a collapse the pocket approach. 3 1 Quote

My understanding is that it was for one play when he was really gassed after a bunch of running around. He probably shouldn't have done it, but it's going to get waaaaaayyyyyyy more attention than it deserves. 3 3 3 Quote

But it does call into question his dedication and his conditioning. Flacco came in and handed the bal off. Richardson, a professional athlete, couldn’t manage that? Shades of Jamarcus Russell. Amazing skill set, serious character questions Edited October 29 by Captain Hindsight 2 Quote
stlbills13 Posted October 29 Posted October 29 They are much better with Flacco. Cleveland was too. He's still pretty solid. But no we shouldn't lose that game either way. Quote
Sojourner Posted October 29 Posted October 29 (edited) I wonder how much of McAffe’s comments yesterday made an impact on the decision regarding, on top of his own, how that fan base would view his choice of tapping out for a play. Edited October 29 by Sojourner 2 Quote

And they have three really great receivers, not to mention JT. 1 Quote

He probably shouldn't have done it, but it's going to get waaaaaayyyyyyy more attention than it deserves. It didn't help that he was 2 for 15 with a horrible INT in the first half. When you're having that sort of day and then tap out for a play it looks a lot more like quitting than if he'd been balling out. Quote
dpberr Posted October 29 Posted October 29 Colts drafted 95% athlete, 5% football player. A story as old as the NFL draft itself. Unfortunately for the Colts, Joe Flacco is 95% football player and 5% athlete at this stage is his career. 3 2 1 1 Quote
