Hoping we made out on Nixon in the 5th like Atlanta did with Grady Jarrett in the 5th... absolute steal

He just needs to learn better hand usage, he's a nutso athlete and can by with that while he's young.

Wish he got some time under KK.

I'm rooting for the guy and I know the jury is still out on him....

 

But have we ever had a player that has been more sheltered than Sam Darnold has been this camp?

I too have noticed how coddled Darnold has been by Rhule. It gives off the impression that they are trying to get something out of damaged goods.

I kinda feel bad that KK is still out there, I am very surprised that Tre Boston is still out there.

KK is just physically washed up. That's just the way it goes in the NFL. I don't feel bad for him since he should be financially set for life several times over.

Boston might still be available because there seems to always be a significant gap between what he thinks he's worth and what NFL teams think he's worth.

They are trying to set him up for success early. Lets be honest.. he is teetering on the edge of being a bust.  So if he comes to Carolina where he has none of the excuses he had with the Jets..(better organization, better weapons, arguably better coach, offensive coordinator, weather..etc..) and he sh$%ts the bed, then he is probably never gonna recover.  But if he starts of decent to good (Hoping for great), then all the talent etc.. may just shine and we are set.  Why would Rhule take the chance of fugging him up early?

It's basically that but they need to pull it back the last this thing locker room needs is it carrying over into the regular season. Once the opener is here it's Darnold's job and his team as the QB1. The head coach can't be holding his hand like it's his first day at school 🤷‍♂️

It is what it is. If he is really that fragile nothing we do will help it. They also probably acknowledge he is the only chance at all we have at being successful. PJ and Grier aren't going to be leading us to anywhere but a top 10 pick. 

If they just don't trust the OL to protect him unless they are at 100% well.....also probably fuged.

A lot of you are accusing the coaching staff of coddling Darnold.

New Team:  Darnold has a new team this year.

Offensive Line:  The Left side of the OL is under construction. OLs take time to gel--think of the OL like your hand--no, the other one--and imagine if you got 2 new fingers.  Oh, and your job was sign language.  See my point?

Depth at QB:  We dont have a competition at QB in camp.  No need to put up huge numbers in camp.  No need to dazzle fans in August.  If Darnold goes down, we all go with him.  Instead of risking injury or damage to his confidence playing behind a three-fingered OL to pass to wounded warrior WRs, why chance it?  What do you want to see in August?

      DJ Moore trade talk

      By TD alt · Posted

      I mean, if Moore really wants out, then it would behoove the Bears to make it happen sooner than later. X is a lot younger and cheaper, and may be a better fit for Johnson's musings than a disgruntled, unnecessary, overpaid vet. If they can dump his salary and maybe get a fourth or so in return, it may be worth it to them. As for development, I'm not concerned. You're talking about a seeming bust, a day three guy and a UDFA. They are developing relative to their ceilings. I doubt any of them will ever command the coverage, money, or the respect that Moore has acquired. He's a tier above them. Yes, even X.

      OK, now it's time to discuss a couple of yesterday's problems. Let's talk "Evero."

      By ImfromClayton · Posted

      IMO, if Ceedee plays against us, the game probably goes the other way. Same with Tyreek Hill and the Dolphins. Our team just isn't designed to beat teams with two high level receivers like that. But when you look at the league, how many teams really have two guys of that caliber?  There's nothing wrong with defensive adjustments, but sometimes I think a lot of fans want Evero to call a different play like a game on madden, and defensive football just isn't like that. That said, I thought we did a much better job this season against the Cowboys of flipping Jaycee and at least making them work for it, opposed to last season when they literally just lined CeeDee up on the other side of the field every single snap.  For us to just straight up switch to consistent man coverage, or a different zone, or whatever, we likely would consistently need different personnel on the field. Doing it a few times a game is a gamble and can work, but if we consistently run man coverage against the Cowboys, eventually a RB is going to beat a linebacker, or something of that nature with our personnel. Part of the reason Evero likes this scheme is that, while we have our defaults and presets, what we do is very multiple, and you can do a lot of different things pre and post snap. We are a challenging defense to read. But as you said, if guys are getting beat, it doesn't really matter what you call.
