Most quarterbacks would be pleased if they set a 30-year record in the NFL, but Anthony Richardson won't be asking for a plaque to commemorate the mark he set during the first half of the Indianapolis Colts' Week 8 game at the Houston Texans.
Richardson has struggled for consistency with the Colts this season, and Sunday's game will do him no favours in that department as the 22-year-old completed just 13 percent of his passes in the opening half, the lowest such percentage in over three decades.
Richardson's misery was most aptly displayed late in the second quarter with the Colts on their own 11-yard line. With the game tied at 10-10, the quarterback dropped back and threw the ball directly to a Houston defender, which led to the Texans' go-ahead touchdown on the subsequent drive.
To make matters worse, that was the first and only lead the Texans took during the game, as they added to their advantage and held on for a 23-20 victory.
