Anthony Richardson,

Benched what's it mean for the future,

the player, and the rest of the season for the colds,

plus trade deadline, speculation, power rankings,

and Thursday night football,

we got it all covered for you,

it's time for inside coverage. Mr. Frank, Frank, Wivesh, he's Joy Epstein.

This is Inside Cover Time.

I'm Jason Fitz, I should tell people that, where we give the why and the howl of

everything happening in the NFL, we know that. And guys, usually I come in here and we, you know, do the little dance start seeing how everybody is, but there's drama. It feels like every week there's drama when we connect. I don't know what what happens but there's something about Wednesday

mornings that make it a big day the big news of the day is that Anthony

Richardson has been benched and I'm not just talking about benched for the day

not benched for the week no Shane Steik and the head coach of the colts has made it clear that Joe Flacko is their

quarterback moving forward so let's start with the very basic here Frank you surprised?

Yes and no I think that it's a stunning move in that it's a guy who was the fourth pick of the draft,

who you knew what this project was going to be and that was going to take a long time.

But you watch Anthony Richardson play quarterback

and you say they just can't keep doing this.

They can't, again, and I equated this to the Cleveland Browns, and I'm glad Charles isn't here to bust on me for changing the subject, but let's compare the Brown situation of the cold situation.

The Browns let their season completely fall to waste.

Just throw it in the trash because we have to protect the feelings of a $230 million quarterback.

You should have been able, and I don't know how Kevin Stophanski looks at those guys in the eye right now and says they're giving their all.
