Personally, I have mixed reviews. Early in the game, he had some good coverage and made some good plays. As the game went on, you saw him get beat deep (even though I think it was Bua who missed his assignment and didn't help out covering the deep ball) and make a couple risky plays (gambling for the INT that lead to a big gain). I like his aggressiveness but was it just me or did he seem over zealous to push guys after he tackled them or when the play was over?
 
he was good early with some nice plays but he got beaten badly in the 2nd half, but i like to see what he does in the next game

He will be a very good dime back for us right now. He could challenge at the nickel spot once he gets comfortable with the system. One thing we have keep in mind about Richard, he has been with us for only a few days, so we know he isn't too familiar with everyone and the schemes we run. But I think he did very well considering those factors.

Agreed! Aside from the fact that he gambled and lost on that INT, he played fairly good. He got beat deep a couple times but on one occassion, I believe it was a missed assignment by the S (Bua). He seems to have good cover skills but lacks the speed to keep up with the fast receivers.
 
oh **** thats who that guy was, haha... i remember seeing him and being like whos this richard character? must be some undrafted rookie FA... but now i remember he was from the seattle trade, oh yeah im gonna have to go back and check out his performance again...
