Confirm that he’s booty. To everyone crying he had no OL - “Over the past three seasons Darnold has ranked 34th of 38, 21st of 37, and 28th of 38 in on-target percentage from a clean pocket

29th in deep ball accuracy last year- teddy was 28. 
 

if we wanted an early qb who never lived up to his potential, mariota would’ve been cheaper and was never this atrocious.

Here is what people do not get-

QBs have an internal clock.  They get hit (or hurried) at 3.4 seconds after the snap (making this up) 76% of the time.  Darnold is hit or hurried 88% of the time at 3.1  seconds.  Mentally, do you think he is in the same place as a Drew Brees or a Dak Prescott--teams known for their OL play? 

The threat of pressure can be as real as the pressure itself-human nature.  It is called "defense mode" and the amygdala in the brain sends a signal to the hippocampus, shutting normal functioning down and sending the brain into "fight, flight, or freeze" (defense) mode.  Ever get really rattled when you were ALMOST in a car accident?  Same thing.

He only had a clean pocket on 23 attempts, so that initial statement is a bit overstated

Jesus - that stat right there is far more telling about the Jets than anything Darnold did or did not do.  Over 14 games he only had a clean pocket for 23 throws?!?!  YIKES!  Hopefully Sam is not permanently seeing ghosts now, ala David Carr.

He misread that graphic. 23 deep throws (21+ yards). Not total attempts from a clean pocket (though that number is likely below average as well)

    • ^I want that, but Rodriguez over KC. Don't hate KC as much at that spot, but rather take a WR with the pick we gain in that trade than in the 1st. 
    • I think there is good points in this thread to what the team needs to do. 1) Ball isn't really the issue but, he needs reigned in.  Coach and he need to realize when things aren't falling from the three and learn to play other facets of the game.  He's an amazing talent and when he's on, he's on.  But he can also shoot you out of a game.  We're lucky Miami went that way but that is too many missed threes.  He still needs to bulk up if he can, but he needs to drive more.  He's pretty good at finishing usually and hopefully the fouls come (probably not though).   2) The whole team needs to be more physical.  As others have stated, we need more bulk in our bigs.  Diabate is a hurricane of energy but cannot go against the larger centers.  I love him on the team but he should be more of a match up type guy or energy off the bench.  I think he'd be insane off the bench.  However I think the biggest issue with Diabate and Kaulk is the lack of offensive game.  The lack of a jump shot or anything.  Teams figured out to just leave them on the screen and crash lanes.  There has to be some sort of threat.  We need a 4 and a 5 that can do those things and stretch out the court. 3) Bridges.  He's just undersized.  However, I feel he really threw his all into it the last few weeks when others were gassed.  He was ok not being a focal point.  I'd like to have him off the bench as well but I assume he'd be traded to make things work.  4) Miller.  Dude can light it up when on, but disappears for quarters at a time.  Also he needs to work on ball handling and passing.  He's a turnover machine at bad times.  Also hopefully over the injury so he can bulk up too.   5) Kon. Just a rookie.  Long season and back injury.  I have no doubt he'll be back stronger and focused.  Needs to work on defense and physicality like the whole team but yes, a rookie he'll get there. 6) Coby.  Has to be resigned, no question.  The bench lineup is rough without him running the point.  Team has big potential and the front office seems sharp.  They seen the hive and how crazy it got and how much the city wants this.
