I think we have had JT Sullivan's videos on here before, but I just really like the way he analyzes the play of the QBs. I think I learn something new every time I watch one of his videos. Here is his analysis of Richardson's week 4 performance.
Yeah, he sure didn't seem to like Pittman's effort this week.I watch his breakdowns every week. I love nerding out on that kind of stuff.
He seriously has something against Michael Pittman though. Kinda weird. There’s gotta be some history there or something.
Colts putting the ball in Taylor’s court.
Here come the fireworks
The Anthony Richardson effect
IMHO, Taylor said all the right things. It benefits literally no one (except for entitled media and fans) for him to discuss the offseason - either what happened in the last one or what he wants/expects in the next one.Lot of coach speak from Taylor, which is fine. Talked mostly about his health and wanting to play football again.
If you really listen to it, nothing he said really changes whatever pre-conceived notions you had about Taylor. If you always thought he wanted to say, you probably still think that. If you thought he wants out, you probably still think that too.
He said he's here, he's committed, he's healthy, he's looking forward to being on the practice field for the first time in 290 days, he's focused on the season at hand and he's committed to helping his teammates win a championship.
Lamar Jackson at one time requested a trade. So did Austin Ekeler. Merely asking for a trade, in the midst of a contract dispute, is not indicative of anything. It could be frustration, leverage, or an actual desire to be moved. Given that JT has not spoken publicly on the matter, everything is (ad nauseum) speculation. All he can do is go out and play - and that's what he's focused on.He requested a trade a couple months ago too. That also happened.
People dunking on the media like “See! He wants to be here forever!” are just as wrong as the people that are like “You can tell he’s miserable and can’t wait to play for someone else.”

The media deserve to be dunked on, given their behavior since this summer.
I agree. I'm hoping it turns into sunshine and rainbows, but I definitely have my doubts.Right. I’m just saying, he hasn’t come out and said “I want to be a Colt for life” either. He had the chance to do that today and he didn’t. I was just pushing back slightly on some of the fans (mainly on Twitter, not here) that are thinking it’s all sunshine and rainbows with Taylor and the Colts.
It would have been counterproductive for him to talk about any of that today. He did the right thing, saying "I'm talking about now, and the season, and contributing to the team. Contracts are an off-season discussion and I'm not getting into it."Right. I’m just saying, he hasn’t come out and said “I want to be a Colt for life” either.
