Darnold has more upside than Teddy for sure...but sadly Teddy is probably the better QB.  Not thrilled with this trade, hope it works out.

I disagree. Teddy is not the better QB. Put the tape on side by side and let it speak for itself. While watching, take account that teddy has DJ moore, Robby and curtis.. and Darnold had jamison crowder as his best guy. And Adam gase. It's pretty laughable honestly. Darnold to me is easily better

Darnold sure hasn't shown it yet...maybe he's a late bloomer.

Half this board tried to convince themselves this time last year that the Teddy signing was brilliant too. This one likely ends up turning out about the same. Darnold probably has a career year like Teddy did because honestly it wouldn't take much to qualify but it's nowhere near good enough and this time next year half the board is trying to convince themselves that the trade for Jared Goff will be the third time's a charm.

Need to bump some of those threads and see the coloration. I member my posting were along the lines of -" dont agree, but the coaches want him, so......" Plus I know for a fact I said Id take Jameis Winston for 1 million over Teddy for 3/63. Truth be told, right now Teddy is a better QB than Darnold and they just traded 3 picks(2nd) for him. Just when I think you had some questionable moves(Erving/ Elflein) and then this..... only saving grace is they're not big money killers.

I mean, Adam gase does have a reputation fair or not of ruining QBs and teams... Darnold didn't exactly have weapons the same way we have weapons... Plus, the jets are an awful team period. There's so many variables are play. Playing for a team that's dysfunctional probably sucks the life out of you.

The panthers have the same reputation.

I have no doubt in my mind that Rhule can get Darnold to check down every play and then some. Teddy might have better understanding and situational awareness at this point but he still plays scared and doesn’t have the raw skills that Darnold does. He’s useless if he can’t win with the game on the line.

fuging eye test shows he's ass, just like Teddy, but unlike Teddy he horrifically failed the stats test.

Same fuging idiots last year that stroked the FO off for bringing in Teddy doing the same this year with Darnold.

For what it's worth I was one of the ones deathly against the teddy idea. This Darnold idea is significantly more hopeful and appealing imo. Lol

      Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers

      BREAKING: Panthers interested in Justin Simmons

      While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
