As Indianapolis Colts’ <\/a>head coach Shane Steichen has said on a few occasions, ultimately, he is looking for consistency at the quarterback position, and whoever can best provide that, Anthony Richardson or Daniel Jones, will be the Week 1 starter.<\/p>\n

But what exactly goes into determining who the most consistent quarterback is? Steichen recently provided some insight into what he is looking for in an interview with ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“I think the operation, the consistency on a day-to-day basis,” Steichen said. “Obviously, knowing the situation, taking care of the football, being smart, and finding completions. We gotta make sure our offense is moving at a high rate up and down the field, and that’s what we’ll be looking for.”<\/p>\n

Over the last two training camp practices in particular, both Richardson and Jones have been building momentum<\/a> and putting together strong showings.<\/p>\n

Richardson has been more efficient<\/a> and showcased better ball placement on the short to intermediate throws, which was a major priority for him during the offseason<\/a> as he focused on his footwork.<\/p>\n

Jones, meanwhile, is getting more comfortable within Steichen’s offense, which came with a learning curve for him, as he told Fowler, and he’s building that chemistry with the pass catchers.<\/p>\n

Steichen has said that there is no timetable for when a decision will be made.<\/p>\n
