And drafted Mahomes in the 1st anyway. They didn't rest on their Alex Smith laurels. You inadvertently produced a great example of why you don't settle. And Alex Smith was considerably better than Darnold.
-
Building the best possible team should be the goal. It starts with QB.
-
A guy getting outplayed by a 7th round rookie? That's the goal? Damn, I know we've sucked for years but some of y'all are developing some rock bottom copium goals.
-
Winning a putrid division shouldn't be the goal. The next NFC South team to figure out the QB position is setup to dominate until the rest of the division does the same. I want to be that team.
-
When we actually come out and run an offense that doesn't intentionally de-emphasize the QB and he plays well then we'll have something to talk about.
-
We ran for 21 yards vs. the Steelers. We threw 23 times. The offensive game plan boils down to "don't let Darnold throw the game away".
-
What trajectory? We are running an offense that outright de-emphasizes the QB position. Some of y'all or grossly overstating this "development". Darnold is doing a great job running a backup QB offense. He's on the trajectory of having a long career as a backup. Which isn't a terrible thing but he is not a long-term starter. We're running this offense for a reason.

Drafting a bust QB doesn't set you back. It's the refusing to move on from a bust QB that sets you back. If he busts, move on.
-
Oh, he's boom or bust for sure. I'm all the way out on Levis. At some point we have to start swinging. I think Richardson has the highest ceiling in the draft. But yeah, he might bust. If he does, keep swinging. But you absolutely can't settle for subpar. Mediocrity becomes your ceiling.
-
There's no doubt in my mind that outside of that massive trade and contract Russell Wilson would've been benched weeks ago. They're gonna lose this challenge. Another turnover on the first play of the second half. This one isn't on Wilson but just a continuation of the poo avalanche the Broncos are caught in currently.
-
I'd be all for drafting Anthony Richardson and retaining Darnold as a bridge QB to ensure we're not forced to try to play Richardson before he's ready.
-
What?
-
Oh, it's by far the biggest surprise of the season. A lot of people were ready to put the Broncos in the SB.
-
If you want to delude yourself into thinking we can compete for Super Bowls with Sam Darnold and an offensive game plan of throwing just enough to keep the D honest, then go for it. But it's delusional.
-
It's like an entire career of horse poo luck of running around like a cat with his tail on fire before throwing up an absolute prayer that his receiver wrestles away from three DBs has caught up with Russell Wilson and he's getting the results that style of play always should've yielded.
-
It's not how anyone who wants to compete for Super Bowls would do it. That's what I want to do.
-
FTFY
-
Brutal.
-
Not to mention Geno Smith's play in Seattle. Sure looking like Wilson's run in Seattle had a lot more to do with Pete Carroll and the Seahawks' organization than it did Russell Wilson.
-
This season? No. We're doing what we have to do. Any thoughts of it being a path forward beyond this season? Hell no.
-
Is Russell Wilson the worst starting QB in the NFL right now? I mean, he's in the conversation. Good grief, what a disaster for the Broncos.
-
It's difficult to overstate just how terrible Russell Wilson has been this season. If he doesn't jerk his head out of his ass this might go down as the worst NFL trade of all time.
-
Tua was having a really good game and then just fell apart. Three straight INTs to close out the game. And they were all three terrible INTs. No tipped passes or balls bouncing off receivers' or anything else flukey. He just threw the ball right to the defense.
-
We build on it by finding a starting QB.
-
I mean that right there was a horrible read by Rodgers. The receiver made a tough grab to keep the drive going with a 4th down conversions but Rodgers had an absolute layup to the TE underneath. Gotta take the easy play on 4th down. Can't rely on a receiver making a tough catch to try to get a few more yards.
