Colts QB Anthony Richardson faces his biggest test as a passer against vaunted Lions defense

Anthony Richardson is just one game removed from his infamous benching and fresh off of his most complete game as an NFL quarterback, one that provided a stat line of 272 passing yards on 67% completion and three touchdowns while surrendering just one turnover.

This week, however, may just be Anthony Richardson’s toughest test to date as the red-hot Detroit Lions are coming to town. The Lions are not only the NFC’s best through eleven weeks; they are steamrolling teams en route to wins, embarrassing them along the way with exotic trick plays that serve as daggers early and often.
