As bad as it sounds, even if he loses some claims, depending the severity, I still think tepper would be interested. If we have a backup plan all this is moot, and I’m on board for it 

Out of all the issues facing athletes and bouncing back from off the field stuff it's pretty easy to just NOT do IG massage ladies lol...unless man legitimately has some sort of issue like addiction or...who tf knows what. So to me as long as it isn't the worst of the things then it can be redeemable

Yeah idk why that’s even being discussed, he was clearly not the first option, unless the jets weren’t willing to trade him at the time we were interested in Stafford 

This forum is quite an entity of isomerism and cliques. It's weird that even people that were staunchly in favor of a LT for months to give Sam a real chance changed their tune quick just to go along with the front office, and the crowd.

Yeah, barring something egregious that would put his football career in jeopardy, once his legal issues are over some team is going to bite regardless, we see it year in and out.

Yeah hence why I said the same thing with Teddy, we’ve seen this fail once, granted Teddy isn’t the athlete etc darnold is, and doesn’t have the potential darnold does, Real risky business for first time owner and coach. 

I wasn't a fan of Teddy and Teddy was 4 year older and not rated as high coming into the league.. So it's a bit different..

It's going to be hard to develop a QB that sees ghosts with a poor offensive line.

Wow if not looking good against the best defense in football that year is a problem.. Then Pat Mahomes Superbowl performance should have you thinking KC should trade him.. Are Aaron  Rodgers against the Bears on Monday night 2 years ago should have been done..Lol

At this point I don't give fug.. I like the pick you don't ... cool ...moving on..

True, but Teddy was coming off that little win streak in NO, at least he looked good on the nfl field before we signed him.

granted darnold had gase, I like our staff and I do think gase is bad, but I’m not sold on our staff being overwhelming better to flip darnold into the qb he was projected to be coming out. 

but I could be wrong, I just hope that have a backup plan that’s more solid because we’ve been doing the exact opposite of what was said in these pressers lately

Guess we can dispense with the dumbass narrative that Darnold was just a fallback in case we couldn't get someone better, huh?

The dumb narrative is that Darnold would have prevented us from taking a QB we really liked.

The only thing passing on Fields and Jones tells us is that we really didn’t like them.

If Trevor or Wilson would have fell do you honestly think we would have passed because of Darnold.  Maybe even Lance, who knows where we really had him ranked.  
 

The team signed Darnold because they felt like he is was their best realistic option, doesn’t mean he is was their 1st or even 3rd choice.  Not really that complicated of a concept.

He has tools, let’s see what the staff can get out of him.

If that helps you sleep better 😃

It's been said that we'll likely be picking up that 5th year option shortly.

Lawrence? Probably not, but then if we were in a position to take Lawrence we probably wouldn't have traded for another quarterback.

Wilson? Unknown. Not every team was as high on him as the Jets were.

Exactly, a lot of people around here said Darnold wouldn’t prevent you from taking a QB you really like.   That’s a true statement.

Wasn’t a QB at 8 we really liked that much.

Not sure why that concept really bothered you so much.

Did some fans like Fields enough to take him with Darnold here? Yes.  Did you? No

but those are opinions, and your opinion could totally be right, time will tell.

but saying Darnold prevents you from taking a QB you really like is an absolute statement that isn’t true

What was actually being said was that Darnold was only a just in case / last resort / insurance pickup because the team didn't believe any of the top five quarterbacks would fall to them.

Clearly, that turned out to be wrong seeing as two of the top five were available to us and we passed on both.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      By Paa Langfart · Posted

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      By Swaggasaurus · Posted

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
