- Indianapolis Colts Need to Replace Daniel Jones With Anthony Richardson Sr. @zachhicks2.bsky.social
- Yes. We can say Daniel Jones is playing poorly AND acknowledge they also screwed up. And for the record, none of what I’m saying has anything to do with Anthony Richardson. I’m just dealing with the matter at hand. (Personally I would play AR at this point) · Quoting Brooklynbk4: @HolderStephen He’s playing bad for sure and he deserves blame. But Ballard trading away Pittman and leaving him with tredwell, Keenan Allen and Josh downs is criminal .

- Yall are really trippin. I have written THOUSANDS of words about Anthony Richardson and the missteps of all parties in that situation. Daniel Jones is the QB. Period. When they Colts paid him, they locked themselves into that. What you or I say or think won’t matter. Trust me. · Quoting Haji Jackson: @HolderStephen Crazy how you have this level of nuance for how the game is being played League-wide but can't see a young developmental quarterback being railroaded by two white men trying to save their jobs, while it is happening right in your face. You and @RomeovilleKid are Shameful.
- Getting weird replies about giving more grace to Daniel Jones than I did to Anthony Richardson, which is WILD. If anything, I was overly harsh on DJ on Sunday lol. I called out Colts' lack of a plan on Richardson numerous times. @C_LeBlanc6 · Quoting Chris: @eyetestpasser @DreaminBeaman @HolderStephen 100% agree, @HolderStephen to attack earlier and say I clearly don’t listen or follow is BS. I’m an everyday listener for 10+ years and read most stuff from local media. The above is the bingo! It was adding gas to a flame instead of reminding what we signed up for.
- An important reminder with these QB battles that feature high draft picks who struggle. Anthony Richardson in 2025 camp, McCarthy this camp -- neither stood much of a chance in all likelihood. · Quoting Kevin Seifert: I have been trying to tell anyone who would listen why there is NO history of teams benching a first-round pick via an offseason acquisition -- as the Vikings did this spring -- and then eventually giving that player his job back. Today's decision really happened in March.
