You think I'd be scared to voice an opinion? 

Wow 😆

I'm firmly in the "maybe" crowd. You can look back on my posts prior to the trade and you'll find I wasn't a huge fan of the idea, but said I'd accept it if we did it and hope for the best.

We did, and I have.

If he doesn't pan out, we'll be in a much better position team wise to spend the resources and trade up for a guy like Howell.

We have a poster here who followed Darnold over from the Jets. He's been beating the drum about how Darnold is going to be so good and anyone who can't see that is blind. Where's all your posts going round and round with him?

You just don't realize that you tell on yourself by arguing strongly and constantly against a very small subset of opinions. The neutral sage observer act doesn't hold up.

Sure, dude 😆

As far as the Jets poster, I'm not even sure who that is. The only former Jets posters I've seen have been negative about Darnold.

Maybe it was the one who got banned for rooting for the Jets in game one.

I'm good with all of that.

It has been my observation that some of the biggest melees on message boards are between people whose thoughts are not far apart.  And I am not referring to you and me, because our discussions on this and other things have always been civil and relatively low-keyed.

Well, maybe two sources: people whose views are pretty close or people trying to reason with morons.

People who know nothing? 🤔

You should be able to tell if your QB signing from the Jets was a good move fairly quickly.  By nature of the QB position, you get wild reactions from both ends of the spectrum.  

You can’t blame the most ardent fans that feel strongly that the franchise made a mistake trading for Sam, or the passion expressed for or against the move. It’s up to him to change minds.  From what I know of him, he’s a tough dude.
 

Everyone loves their team, want the best possible players that will uplift their franchise, feel frustration when a move in the most important position on the field is a retread.  It is what it is, time will tell, and it will be sooner than drafting a rookie straight out of college.

I remember that one (don't remember who, but I am old).  Yeah, that was over the top.  Especially when the odds are Darnold will wind up somewhere between Jamarcus Russell and Joe Montana, not mentioned in the same breath with Montana.

Wait, that would be me (just ask my wife).

Add that after years of questionable talent acquisitions from our GMs and little to no development from our coaching staffs, we expect defeat to somehow be grabbed from the jaws of victory.  Those who have not reached that point probably have some strange form of Stockholm Syndrome.

Retreads aren't sexy that's for sure.   How quickly we'll see results....in that respect, Darnold is going to get a better shake than Bridgewater.  Sam will have a full preseason.  Teddy didn't get that.  Teams with lots of transition last year were certainly at a disadvantage.  I was really surprised we were close in so many games.

I could agree with that if we still had our prior GM or coaching staff. Happily though, that long national nightmare is over.

Whether or not Rhule and Fitterer are the guys to lead us to the Promised Land? Don't know yet.

 

 

But at least they're not Marty and Ron.

      Sugar Defender Reviews (Thriving in Accomplished Aims) Official Website Alert!

      By Smith · Posted

      ast updated today 19th May 2024 Some people are unsure if Sugar Defender  is real, so here's the truth: there's no evidence that it's a scam. The company clearly lists all the ingredients and doesn't make wild promises. Instead, they support their claims with scientific studies. They have research backing up what they say about Sugar Defender's benefits. Even if some people are skeptical, there's no proof that Sugar Defender is fake. It's important to look at the facts and see that the company is being honest and open about their product.         Order Now Sugar Defender and Get 85% Off   The best part about this supplement is that it's really easy to use, and you don't need to do anything extra to keep your blood sugar levels steady. Plus, it's all-natural and made safely to address the main cause of blood sugar problems.   How long does it take for Sugar Defender to work? How fast Sugar Defender works can be different for each person. It depends on things like how fast your body works, any health issues you already have, and how often you use it. But since they give you 60 days to try it out and get your money back if it doesn't work for you, it's likely that most people see some changes within that time if they use it like they're supposed to. For the best results, use it for at least 90 days.   What Is Sugar Defender? Sugar Defender is a special formula that helps your body respond better to insulin. It's made with the purest ingredients. Every ingredient has been tested many times to make sure they're the best, and the company says there are no stimulants, chemicals, or things that could cause allergies in it. They make it in a super clean lab that follows strict rules. The goal of Sugar Defender is to naturally lower your blood sugar levels and keep them steady and healthy. It's a supplement that won't get you hooked and doesn't have any stimulants or GMOs. And guess what? It's easy to use! Each bottle has enough for a whole month. Just take the right amount every day, and you're all set!

      Agree on Necas, he’s gone. Guentzel seems 50-50 to me, Canes would have to pony up. Still not sure Skjei will be back. From exit interviews he seemed less optimistic than Pesce and I definitely don’t think Pesce is back. Jarvis and Noesen have to be back. I think if Kuzy shoots more he could be a great asset. Put him with a passer like Turbo and a net front like Noesen.
