00:00 (upbeat music)
00:02 - And, but so this then gets into
00:06 what do we expect from the Colts this year?
00:08 But I want to get into this Anthony Richardson number
00:10 that we've been flashing up on the screen a little bit
00:12 for the people watching on the TV side.
00:14 Season-long passing yards prop is available.
00:17 We don't have his season-long touchdown number just yet.
00:20 2,700 and a half yards.
00:25 For those that, look, quick math,
00:28 it's about 160 yards per game.
00:32 Over 17 games if you want to cash this ticket.
00:36 One of the reasons it's a little bit jarring
00:39 to see Richardson get the job
00:41 is unless you're completely out of your mind,
00:44 you're not going to bench him no matter how bad it goes.
00:48 You don't give this job to Anthony Richardson,
00:51 he has a three-pick performance in week six,
00:53 and you go, hold on a minute now, what is this?
00:56 Gardner, Minsh, you get out there, brother.
00:57 Week seven is yours.
00:58 That's not the deal.
00:59 So unless Anthony Richardson is injured, Donnie,
01:02 it should be 17 full games of Anthony Richardson.
01:06 160 yards per game for a quarterback?
01:10 That is nothing.
01:13 And that is not what Anthony Richardson props
01:14 are going to be.
01:15 At least not at the beginning of this.
01:17 The only reason I think, Donnie, this number even exists
01:20 is because our good friend Justin Fields.
01:23 Justin Fields is the only quarterback last year
01:26 that started more than 13 games
01:28 and failed to throw for over this number.
01:32 Because, of course Justin Fields did.
01:34 Because Justin Fields and everything
01:36 that was going on in Chicago,
01:37 I don't know if we focus in enough
01:39 on how insane it was that a starting quarterback
01:42 would just never have the ability to throw for 200 yards.
01:45 People are betting this guy to win MVP, by the way.
01:47 We'll see how many screen passes the Bears can throw.
01:50 How are we not betting over 2,700 and a half yards
01:55 for Anthony Richardson over the course of this season?
01:57 - And also let's keep in mind,
01:59 what's the Colts outlook on the season?
02:00 Oh, it's to win the FC South.
02:01 No, it's to be like dead laughs in the FC South, basically,
02:04 at this point for the season,
02:05 fighting with the Houston Texans.
02:07 So that's what you want to hear, right?
02:08 Like, okay, he has 62 yards at the half.
02:10 Well, he's going to be throwing the entire second half
02:12 because they're losing.
02:13 But here also comes into the equation again.
02:16 You and I, we're trying to think clearly here
02:17 on Anthony Richardson.
02:18 Starter game number one, he is your future, right?
02:20 By game three,
02:21 Gardner-Mitchell's not going to be starting to hug him.
02:23 Man, we really messed this one up.
02:24 Let's just sit him for the rest of the year.
02:26 We'll make up an injury.
02:26 So he goes to the bench
02:27 and there's not going to be any arguments
02:29 should he be back in the game.
02:30 But having said that again,
02:32 let's talk about who their owner is, Kevin.
02:34 Because again, we weren't in the room,
02:36 the end of the season with Carson Wentz
02:38 when they lost to the Jacksonville Jaguars,
02:40 which was a win and get in spot here.
02:42 You know, Frank Wright went to ownership.
02:43 Okay, we should have made it in.
02:45 We just didn't do that.
02:45 We're going to retool.
02:46 I get another year of Carson Wentz.
02:48 No, you don't.
02:49 What do you mean I don't get another year?
02:50 As Frank Wright would say.
02:51 Well, Jim Irsa goes, I want him out of town.
02:53 I don't even care what you get for him or cut him.
02:55 I just want a new quarterback.
02:56 Let's just say the owner is up there again,
02:58 just wheeling and dealing, playing fantasy football.
03:00 I saw enough here.
03:01 Just put Minshew in the game next.
03:03 I'm telling you, that's what you worry about here.
03:06 If we're just looking to make a wager,
03:08 you're going to get Anthony Richardson,
03:10 non-injured to play 17 games.
03:12 You have to, I don't even care, Kevin,
03:13 if he opens up the season thrown for 120 yards a game.
03:16 They're bad.
03:17 He's going to throw in the fourth quarter.
03:18 He's going to fall into 250 yard games.
03:20 That should be an easy cash.
03:22 But if I know the head coach might not be pulling
03:24 the strings here, Kevin,
03:25 that's what makes it tough for me at this point.
03:27 It should be a no brainer, but Irsa's the owner.
03:29 He might trade him mid-season, who knows?
