do you disagree? Its the reality of the trade

Got the game tracker going and I'll tune in if it looks close. Hoping for a big 49ers win

the very fact he is looking down field and completing passes down field is a significant improvement from the last few games out of him actually

holy poo do we actually control our own destiny? hahahahah edit: ahh no need one more loss from Falcons and Bucs, lol.

because we traded less for him and don't have him on contract next year.

reminder the trade was the equivalent of 2 2nds and a 3rd due to their timing. I get fans don't care and would rather just stockpile future assets, but I guarantee if the Rams had offered 2 firsts and a 2nd in this coming draft he wouldn't be a Panther anymore.

my opinion is you let him play out the rest of the year. He's not gonna light the league on fire, lol. But if he looks like an acceptable backup, sign him to a limited extension and let him be a vet stop gap, like we should have had with Teddy Bridgewater, while the new coach/staff get their systems in place and get their guy in the draft.

I'm fine with this plan even if we draft a QB "early" in this draft. Darnold is, by all accounts, a good teammate. Get a new young offensive minded coach in, if he's ok with Darnold as a vet stopgap, let's do it.

he is, but that is really saying VERY little. if he wants to come back for cheap, fine, but please do not plan to build around him. ofc if he somehow manages to lead us into the playoffs my attitude will change, lol.

no kidding. Top three picks go to atrocious teams with so many holes, its hard for them to be successful. Teams drafting outside the top few picks usually have fewer holes, better coaching, and a better situation for players.

No, you couldn't. With the way the D was playing, we probably coulda won with a much worse effort by him, but he played well enough. I get that he basically just managed the game, but he made a couple of big throws. No reason to hate on the dude. No reason to build around him either, lol.

He had a perfectly fine game, it was a great return against a very good defense. He took the shots he needed to, frankly he had a lucky but heads up/smart play to get that TD by rolling into the endzone after the forced fumble, and he had some very pretty throws. But Darnold has always been capable of good games, its the other type of games that he commonly has that are a concern too. Let's see how he does going forward - a lot of the flaws in his game last year were not apparent this game. If he can threaten 40 yard throws regularly, it'll be way harder to stop his short/intermediate game. I've never been a Darnold hater, and while I don't think we can build around him at all, I'm happy with his performance and looking forward to the rest of the season.

fuging great game by DJ and props to Darnold for finally looking down field (to his own teammates, that is). If those two can keep up the chemistry, it'll at least be a fun last few games of the season

rolling into the endzone pie!

there's some trolls named like "BringBackDarnold" saying it, but come on some of us are happy he had a decent game but realistically we all know what we have with him and don't think we should build around him. That doesn't mean we should just do our best to tank tho, I don't think you can tank when you still technically have a shot at the division. unfortunately the whole division is so garbage...

Happy for the team, always great winning at home

honestly he looked like he did the same thing at SEA sometimes and his receivers just made incredible plays

was wilson just carried by SEA receivers? lol

another example of why Wilks shouldn't be back next year

felt this way, but also know that the smart thing to do there was to take the 3 points if you didn't get it on the ground. As much as I hate this conservative ball, in a game like this it makes sense.

both of them lol

being the best qb on this roster still doesn't mean much, but its nice to see Darnold have some semblance of success, he's always been reportedly a great teammate

who the fug is this person

if sam fuging darnold wins 5 in a row... I'll be... I don't even know if shocked describes it.

I guess I'm in the minority, I'm enjoying this game so far.
