My brother-in-law just told me that he was happy Anthony Richardson got hurt because it “proved that he wasn’t mentally prepared for the NFL.” I about lost my mind. He and I don’t see eye to eye on a few topics, but generally get along well. I certainly didn’t have this argument on my Thanksgiving bingo card.
I’ve already heard from a couple different Colts fans that his injury was proof that he should have sat behind Minshew all year.
No idea how that would have prevented injury when he DID finally start, but a lot of people just use whatever happened to prove they were right in what they initially thought.
It’s just confirmation bias.
