Question isn’t improvement, it’s will it be enough? He’ll look better but will he be a winner. But the reasons for improvement are painfully obvious even to the most casual fan (as indicated by literally everyone who talks about the subject).

Before Darnold, I never really gave as much thought to evaluating players in context like we are doing this year for Darnold.  I would not be looking at context if we didn't trade for him.

I wonder if the coaches are applying the same logic  to our FA Oline acquisitions this year.  Eiflin came from the Jets and his pff did decline some when he went there from the Vikings.  Erving was drafted into the 1-15, 0-16 Browns before he went to backup roles at KC and Dallas.

Isn’t obvious? I didn’t watch the video but just from common sense, let’s compare then to now:

Will go from arguably the worst oline in the NFL (for several years) to, as of now, the 18th ranked. I always poo on our oline because it’s garbage but the Jets are otherworldly godawful. Go watch some Jets games from last year.

His RBs avg yards: 2020 (37 year old HB) 3.5, 2019 (played 3/4 of season) 4.0, 2018 4.3-4.8. I’m sure I don’t have to explain why McCaffrey is better than 4 rotating washed up HBs.

His #1 receivers:  2020/2019 Crowder a decent #2 but has never cracked 900 yards in 6 years,  2018 Anderson, never cracked 800 yards. Anderson couldn’t crack 1k until he came here. And aside from 2017, looked to be regressing with the Jets.

Essentially, given Anderson is a wash, I’m sure I don’t have to explain why DJ Moore is better than Crowder.

Gase as OC/QB coach/HC: Made the playoffs one time and lost. Overall HC record? 32-48 (.400). Brady/Rhule unknown but that bar is on the ground. But I’d put money Sean Ryan is better than Gase.

There is a reason why basically any analysis out there on Darnold predicts improvement. Pretty much a duh.

I’ll root for him but improvement and good enough are completely separate topics. 

But, what about the girth of his penis?

100% accurate. Him not improving would be a absolute fuging disaster. 

As you said, the question is how much and will it be enough to get our franchise back on track?

Erving is a complete bust. While Darnold has shown flashes and enough talent to take a chance on, Erving has been bad everywhere he went. 

If he is able to be simply average it would be a miracle turnaround.

    • For as much as fans complained about a lack of depth all around last year, we also have way more than I anticipated complaining about a depth youngish swing tackle getting inked. Can’t have it both ways. It is what it is….a depth signing that can start well in a pinch. He’s not replacing any of the starters long-term. 
    • Everybody knows why Health is like that, however there isn't much doubt that it is. That wasn't the first time I've seen that problem. The concept wasn't that they're passionate relative to doing this. It situation is really artificial and partially maintained by doing it. That was remarkable information. This stale saying had simply gotten far out of hand at this time. Lucky for you I just occur to be pretty good at using this. https://www.myrtlebeastocr.com/group/gear-accessories/discussion/590f00b7-5bfb-4476-95cc-a9a532d9082e https://www.myrtlebeastocr.com/group/gear-accessories/discussion/6c4dfdd6-ea60-43c0-a078-e6ee33e0df16 https://www.myrtlebeastocr.com/group/gear-accessories/discussion/90d78070-25e1-430b-8968-3977e228528d https://www.myrtlebeastocr.com/group/gear-accessories/discussion/423337ec-b753-4cae-9677-23b8e6dc999e https://www.myrtlebeastocr.com/group/gear-accessories/discussion/92c84652-6ce1-44d7-bb69-8ff451a23376 https://www.myrtlebeastocr.com/group/gear-accessories/discussion/719eeb77-94c1-4a25-be1d-c28fb2fcf8f4 https://www.myrtlebeastocr.com/group/gear-accessories/discussion/7450a046-b6a6-4d3f-8f4f-58716999f6ac https://www.myrtlebeastocr.com/group/gear-accessories/discussion/ff797a67-e1b6-4d01-9eaf-257d06f17fe7 https://www.myrtlebeastocr.com/group/gear-accessories/discussion/1a4a6f1f-bb11-4108-b835-c0c2527ed3e0 https://www.myrtlebeastocr.com/group/gear-accessories/discussion/0e5f4e3b-2603-4a8e-87f0-fe56e6290f4b https://www.myrtlebeastocr.com/group/gear-accessories/discussion/98f9b85e-942d-4a6b-8a6d-71767373da37 https://www.myrtlebeastocr.com/group/gear-accessories/discussion/577be84c-166c-42e2-a363-7a495142dba4 https://www.myrtlebeastocr.com/group/gear-accessories/discussion/c3b3968a-0491-40c4-9b7a-c6e5013db51b https://www.myrtlebeastocr.com/group/gear-accessories/discussion/be9029fd-4c87-42cd-bb99-1cc3bc61123c https://www.myrtlebeastocr.com/group/gear-accessories/discussion/c9e57a6d-08b5-46b1-bb36-0ec19efb036b https://www.myrtlebeastocr.com/group/gear-accessories/discussion/2edd6da9-890e-479f-82db-98cffedd6a34 https://www.myrtlebeastocr.com/group/gear-accessories/discussion/68db7b44-1a80-4f19-9ff2-a6734fefc844 https://www.myrtlebeastocr.com/group/gear-accessories/discussion/1229f1da-5755-4c81-94ca-1f895457d648 https://www.myrtlebeastocr.com/group/gear-accessories/discussion/55cb6008-5684-4c85-ae3f-aa4a9b6c0225 https://www.myrtlebeastocr.com/group/gear-accessories/discussion/190d2b33-3a20-4fb6-9950-9330026fe83f  
    • My theory is BC is going to be the RT when the Panthers move on from Moton next season. I think he’s just going to be the “next guy” up this year for whatever position needs filled.
