The deep ball is back and in full effect! Boy does Anthony Richardson have a cannon for a right arm, and there is a certain wide receiver that specializes catching deep balls. Pierce had two receptions over 50 yards, including a beatiful touchdown beating double coverage. He probably will not get more than 5/6 targets a game, but the ones he get have the chance to go all the way. The chemistry between him and Richardson should only improve as the season goes on.
