Jordan Richards signed

[McDavid]

This motha***** still gives me nightmares. single handedly cost us the SB.

 

[Jlaff]

Can someone tell me if anyone posted that video where Richards tackles the Pats' only other DB in the area to set up an 80 yard reception for the Steelers late in the 4th?

 

[Joker]

I'm...uh...stunned into speechlessness.

Of the thousands of available post college football players why THIS proven tard turtle?

 

[doesntmatter1]

In all seriousness, this has just ruined my day. I might even turn in early to sleep this induced depression away lol.

 

[Chevy]

What, Tony Simmons wasn't available? Leonard Russell too busy with the new insurance products to come help?

 

[Betterthanmost]

BB's secret plan to cover Kelce. Chung 2.0

 

[PScottman]

Let's pray Jordan Richards never reads this thread.

Yeah, we're not exactly killing it ourselves from the "motivational speaking" point of view are we?

 

[PScottman]

If there's three names, there's nothing "single-handed" about it.

Unless they've all been playing with too many fireworks.

 

[Soliel]

The guy couldn’t guard a garbage can. Hey B.B.
Scare crows are cheap. Let’s just use one of those instead

 

[RobertWeathers]

Not sure if this was posted.

Explains somewhat why he's back.

With that being said, though, why would the Patriots feel like Richards can improve their special teams units? A look at the numbers might give us a clue. While New England ranks a solid 15th in yards surrendered per punt return (6.4), the team is only 28th in the same category as it relates to kickoff runbacks: the five kickoffs that were returned against the Patriots gained an average of 30.6 yards.

Why did the Patriots re-sign Jordan Richards?

 

[Uptown]

I just don't understand who Richards is supposed to be replacing. Certainly not somebody who plays on defense, right?

D-Mac

 

[Water Boy]

Oh good. If the pats make it to the superbowl BB can bench JC Jackson and play Richards as a 3rd safety to do what's best for the team.

 

[Zuma]

I know these jokes are funny...but I’m finding it hard to laugh. Jordan Richards should never play Defense again...ever...under any circumstance unless it’s for another team. It’s all good if he plays only ST though.

I suppose if he was a coach he could show players how not to tackle.

 

[BelizePats]

It's really hard to like this move unless it is strictly for ST. And even then I have trouble with it.
From what I saw, Richards simply does not have the athletic ability to be competitive.
BB knows far more about talent and the game than I ever will but this is a real head-scratcher.

 

[Sicilian]

Awful lotta babies in this thread.

 

[Patjew]

The Pats kickoff return coverage has stunk. This move is to try to help that. Richards won’t play any more on D than Ebner will/would unless a barrage of injuries occur.

For his sake I hope Jordan doesn’t follow this site We mean.

 

[skspikex2]

All those games of getting kicked around by opposing offense, Jordan Richards will be our new kicker.

 

[The Brandon Five]

4-12!!

Woot!

Its on YouTube I'm sure. He dove at JuJu on the sideline and forced a NEP defender to jump around him thus also missing the tackle.

 

[Soliel]

All of you are wrong. We signed him to play on the offensive line
