I’m on my phone but all you have to do is look at the game film to see all the open receivers today. Sorry your boy just can’t do it.

Eh, we have a championship caliber defense already, that is pretty insane for Rhule to turnaround after having the leagues worst defense two years ago. I expect them to be aggressive next offseason in getting Watson or an actual franchise QB and then the wins will come. Unfortunately Stafford turned us down

Simple fact is we win today and probably last week if we have a QB that can hit open receivers. Rhule will get a pass (and deservedly so) until the GM and Owner can give him a franchise QB

Yes there is. What a ridiculous statement. A lot of QB’s would have performed well enough to win. Sam had multiple open receivers including Robbie but he just can’t hit them in stride. Or he overlooks them and throws into double coverage instead. Sam has all the ability but doesn’t have the brain or eyes unfortunately

A franchise QB. This is what a football team looks like with a below average starting QB. Shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone You can’t seriously say we would have won this game with the league’s best offensive line. Darnold just doesn’t have what it takes to make the throws we need. If you believe he does you have Stockholm syndrome

This is what happens when you have a below average QB, it’s gonna be like this until we find that guy

Maybe Brady should go throw the ball… this loss is on Sam not finding the open man and the few times he does he overthrows or underthrows them

We were a year away anyway with the dead cap and QB/line issues

Sam just can’t throw

Sam has to get the ball out quicker. He’s holding on to it way too long. Had a good 2 seconds there

Are you kidding me. Sam is not throwing to the open guys. Brady is getting guys open. Are you guys watching the game?

People blaming Brady are hilarious. Sam has open players on almost every play but instead goes to the double coverage, guy not open or takes a bad sack

Gonna blame the o-line on that one?

Will Sam ever find the open man? This is embarrassing

O line and Brady are fine. The excuses for Sam are getting old. Would be 17-0 right now if not for his mistakes

Erickson has been super solid this season thus far, deserves props. Good find by the coaching staff

It’s been a serious problem all 5 games now his vision has been downright bad, and this is like 24 points now Sam has given the other team because of dumb mistakes deep in his own territory

We have to be the only team in the league that can’t complete a simple go route ok maybe us and the jets

I don't have distain for Sam, its nothing personally against him, I'm just not sold based on his performance so far. He is very up and down. That third quarter was inexcusable and he makes too many dumb turnovers still. He is very jittery in the pocket and has taken some bad sacks or missed open plays as a result because he's looking at the rushers instead of down field. He could have gotten rid of the ball and not taken some of those sacks. He's missed quite a few open receivers deep. He does have some positives. He is cerebral and the playbook is excellent so far especially his rushing plays. He's thrown some ropes in the intermediate. He's converted some big 3rd downs, a few with his legs when he went through his progressions. He actually has gone through progressions a few times, something I didn't think he could do. I'm not ready to say he is a franchise QB yet...I'd say he is in the 12-18 range in terms of quarterbacks a team would take to win a playoff game. I would feel a lot better if he wasn't so damn jittery and panicky in the pocket. To me that is a bad sign.

You were literally so excited we had a franchise QB after Teddy's start last year... do I really need to point out the threads?

He's at the bottom of league in deep passes completed (40+) yards I just don't want you to get too comfortable as Teddy had the same optimism on here after his first 4 games and look how that turned out at the end of the year Sam still has a long way to go

How many turnovers, sacks taken, and deep pass connections is he on pace for?

Next year he sits on TNF, no matter who we play Edit: Or we just treat it like a preseason game and play the backups

Sam has done well and exceeded expectations but he's not a franchise QB or top 12 QB yet, so we should still consider upgrading if he doesn't play himself into that conversation by the end of the season

Teams aren't trading offensive lineman in this climate, there's a severe lack of talent at the position and just having a good one is a big advantage
