Someone’s going to get a good OC next offseason after Steichen is fired.

And here we go… I am sure Jones is miles ahead of AR on his understanding (and maturity) of how NFL offenses look and that’s probably refreshing to coach. As we know when live bullets start flying is when Jones can start declining. With a functioning offense maybe he will fair better than we have seen however.
In Jones defense, this is BY FAR the best OL and WR/TE group he's ever had. Not saying he's suddenly gonna be Baker Mayfield, but if its a fair abttle, I'd be shocked if Joens didn't win it over Richardson, barring a Josh Allen level turnaround in his accuracy. Honestly, I think we're a year away from Richardson's agent starting to think about maybe seeing if he can play TE.

If he cannot hold up at QB, he would last less at TE. I am not burying Jones, just referencing what we have seen from him before. He certainly could turn on the switch in a better environment and I agree that he will be the week one starter, in fact I would be surprised otherwise considering Steichen is fighting to keep his job. Jones has legs as well and has a better make-up currently to keep the offense on schedIke.

Would prefer to leave him on the waiver wire, but if I had to use him one week, I guess claiming him wouldn't be terrible.

I’m a little QB needy in a 1 QB dynasty league. I think I may try to take him in the 3rd round of our upcoming draft.

As a Jonathan Taylor owner and fan, I'm just thrilled they got Jones. I think Richardson is gonna get another real shot here to be a thing, but if he fails or gets hurt, then the change shouldn't effect Taylor at all. Honestly, Jones might be better for Taylor. Imo

If I had to guess right now who will get more starts, it's Jones.

Same. If I had to bet money on who would get more starts for the 2025 season between the two, id put my money on Jones.

I think Anthony Richardson has to improve significantly as a passer to keep the job. He can't do that while he rests.
Having to rest is a big setback for him right now.

I think Richardson being sore and having to rest is a big hit in the QB competition.
Jones just has to look competent.

Daniel Jones has never had anywhere near this talent around him. He had some respectable games with far less around him, so there is legit reason to think we might have never seen his best until this year. And Richardson can't throw the ball accurately or stay healthy. That seems like 2 of the biggest strikes you could have as an NFL QB.

I don’t know about the Richardson part but this part about Jones is worth understanding further and to consider higher on the list come draft day.

He's had 2 seasons already and cannot stay on the field which hinders his growth and he's already not accurate and looked at by some (MoP) as a bust the moment they drafted him
ARich is behind where he should be right now
Enter Daniel Jones with a lot of starts under his belt, led the Giants to the Playoffs one year as I recall and many feel he is going to a better organization although I'm not sold on that
I think Jones has a terrific chance to win the starting QB job and put up a respectable season even if the Colts don't make the Playoffs
jones is not a great QB but he is likely getting his 2nd chance and he has a lot more seasoning at this point vs ARich, I see the Colts bring Richardson in off the bench where he can carve out a role as the back up for right now until he proves he can handle the starting QB position on this team. I don't believe he will beat out Daniel Jones when training camp begins
my opinion is just that, my opinion and nothing more.
Appreciate your post, got my attention
