There is no denying that it's a QB league and that's exactly how the NFL want to keep it.

Posted by: lobogotti on Sep 19, 09:32 in response to Moviesnob's post the team that is built around the best RB in the league...

If MIN had a QB with AP they would be contenders every year.  The Cowboys were a dominant force with Aikman/Smith back in the day (and there a many other great duos as well). WAS had the advantage of RG3/Morris last year, and each complimented each others game. 

Richardson was a slated to go no higher than 6th last year from analysts all over the country.  He set the franchise rookie records for TDs, yards and all purpose yards.  He fought through injury and played with broken ribs.  With only one season to judge his performance thus far I'd say he has a chance for greatness.  Being stuck in CLE with no QB or great OLine, he'll have his chance to in Indy to showcase his skills much more.  We of course have to work on the OLine, but the QB is there.

I believe in a few weeks Richardson will be making a major impact to our team.  He's a phenomenal pass blocker which is something we truly need.  Does a stronger passing game with the Colts create more room to rush?  Hopefully so and time will tell. 

Right now the buzz in Indy is we have another Manning/James duo in the works... we'll see.

As far as the other teams go I mentioned, they all have problems in the run game at the moment and some may have given a first round pick for a chance to bolster up the run game and make a deep run in the playoffs (giving up a late first rounder and gaining a potentially great RB).

Like I said, time will tell with TRich, and for our teams sake I hope that it pays off.  We won't really know for 2-3 years barring a career ending injury before then or just injury on top of injury (that seem to plague us every year).

OMFG... we got Trent Richardson for a first round pick. LMFAO.....WOW!!!! {nm} lobogotti Sep 18, 15:48

Roll Colts Roll!!! {nm} Bubba_Fett Sep 18, 16:07

absolutely!! someone over in CLE got too deep in the crack rock today and made a HUGE mistake" {nm} lobogotti Sep 18, 16:19

This is a good move for the Colts and Trent, whiskey tango foxtrot was Cleveland thinking? {nm} Bubba_Fett Sep 18, 16:34

Been watching their press conference and they keep talking about rebuilding... HA! just insane {nm} lobogotti Sep 18, 17:18

I don't get it, Cleveland essential traded a #1 RB for a late first rounder... {nm} lapuckfan Sep 18, 16:52

exactly!! dumb, dumb, dumb. And we have the 1st & 3rd picks of the 2012 draft! {nm} lobogotti Sep 18, 17:19

Reddit's Colt page shows Trent in Colt blue. Bubba_Fett Sep 18, 17:00

can you imagine the phone call yesterday to Irsay from the Browns? how did he keep from laughing and saying... lobogotti Sep 18, 17:24

Hehe, I bet he offered a 2nd rounder... {nm} slappydavid Sep 18, 18:57

a young loaded offense that can be dominant for years. wtg colts {nm} islander Sep 18, 17:38

we're back on our way. I should say though I will still be surprised if we win more than 10 games this year. lobogotti Sep 19, 08:04

This isn't fantasy football. Richardson has upside, but there's maybe one other team (gb) that would have traded a first for any rb Moviesnob Sep 18, 23:35

My shock is that CLE would get rid of him. He had 1400 combined yards last year and 11 TDs. If you're going to rebuild TRich is the man lobogotti Sep 19, 08:02

the team that is built around the best RB in the league has no chance at winning a super bowl. its a QB league Moviesnob Sep 19, 08:34

There is no denying that it's a QB league and that's exactly how the NFL want to keep it. lobogotti Sep 19, 09:32

i think you misread my stance. theres no doubt that richardson has upside and hes a perfect fit for the colts. but theres no denying they Moviesnob Sep 19, 09:56

their (CLE) issue now though is, they have to also get a quality RB? I do not see how giving up TRich for a 20+ draft pick is going to lobogotti Sep 19, 11:35

I would check your schedule before locking in that high first rounder. I personally think the value of that pick is more like 1.12 to 1.18, Moviesnob Sep 19, 13:06

HA! I said it above in a post to islander. I'll be surpised if we win more than 10 games, and we're certainly going to have to beat HOU lobogotti Sep 19, 13:39

My take: Browns need a dynasty QB. They want a top pick at the loaded QB class in the upcoming draft. PRodQuanta Sep 19, 11:22

Now if they don't get the #1 and they try and trade their picks for #1 that would be something, but lobogotti Sep 19, 11:41
