He shouldn't be playing in any preseason games....

He was durable until last year. I wouldn't want him to get any unnecessary pounding in the preseason if he doesn't have to but we also can't treat him like Mr. Glass. He's a RB, so he will take a beating sooner or later. At this point, if he is going to be perpetually banged up, there is really nothing we can do about that. 

2020 gave me a huge amount of concern about his "mileage." I desperately hope that he stays healthy all of 2021 and 2020 just proves to be an outlier.

He's the Franchise, maybe not a QB but still he is. Plus, it would be nice to see how Darnold handles the offense without CMC, you know like Teddy n PJ had to do last year.

If you aren't playing CMC for durability reasons, there isn't much reason to play Darnold. 

The staff seems to be pretty dead set on "ideal conditions" for Darnold to get preseason burn. Not having your MVP caliber RB playing is not very ideal.

I want to see Darnold complete most of his passes and have plenty of time to throw. 

I want to see the first string defense dominate and get a turnover. 

I want to see CMC break off a decent run then get on the bench. 

 

That would be wonderful.  Probably not going to happen, but we can hope.

      Greg Cosell on Bryce Young

      By The Question · Posted

      You making fun of or not realizing how important that actually is leads me to believe you don’t have either of those assets and are subconsciously upset about it, or you’ve never been in a position to be a leader and thus you don’t value good leadership which Bryce oozes with.

      I said this last night to family. You can look at Bryce as not a “strong and physical” presence and that’s not going to change on you can look at it, that this guy has the type of skillset that sets him up to only get better for the next 5-7 years every year. He’s not going to know less about the game next year than this year. His timing will be better, his pocket presence better (even though the guy works around a pocket amazingly in my opinion), everything is just going to improve every year and I believed he’s already proved the doubters wrong other than nut huggers on here who just want a big strong man to drool over.

      Are the Panthers a "Trap Game" for the Hawks?

      By MHS831 · Posted

      The Seahawks won an emotional, divisional, overtime rivalry game vs the Rams on a Thursday night (Dec 18).  That gives them 10 days to prepare for the Panthers, but the Christmas holiday fell a week later--I bet they were afforded an extra day for travel-many coming back east.  Following the Panthers, Seattle plays at San Francisco for the division title (in all probability).   The Rams finish the season with games against the Falcons and Cardinals, two likely wins, pushing them to 13-4.  The Niners finish the season with home games against the Bears and Seahawks. Seattle finishes the season with the Panthers on the road and SF in California.   It is easy to see how preparing for the Panthers, during the holiday break and with the Niners waiting for them in SF a week later for (what could be) the NFC West title and #1 Seed in the NFC, could create the perfect trap game scenario.  The Panthers at home are 5-2.   In the past 2 weeks, the Seahawks struggled to beat the Phillip Rivers Colts in Seattle and then pulled off a miraculous, emotional victory at home vs. the Rams.  I am not convinced that they are as good as advertised. Seattle is a TD favorite in Charlotte.  I feel that Carolina by 3 may be more accurate.  While I am still not confident in this team's consistency and it never seems to dominate, it sure feels like a trap game for Seattle to me.  How could they NOT be thinking of San Francisco right now?  They are not used to being in this position (current players) and it is human nature.  Carolina 27, Seattle 24.
