Sam has all of the weapons and he has all of the arm strength and arm talent as almost any qb in the league. His problem is in-between the ears. He was never effectively coached in NY and as a result he made mistakes.

Were those mistakes because of not being taught how to avoid those situations? Or was it because of football iq and not understanding the Xs and Os of the playbook? Our offensive staff is hopeing it was a coaching issue and not mental.

Also he 'feels ghosts' which is mental trauma due to being hit too much because of a bad offensive line so now he has happy feet and is more likely to make mistakes instead of holding the ball long enough to let plays develop downfeild. I hope I am wrong, but so far our Oline looks pretty bad and might not be much of an improvement for him feel safer in the pocket.

Both of these issues can be helped with proper coaching, but it also will take alot of mental fortitude to overcome his tendencies and trust his team to protect him from threats that he might not see coming from behind. It is a longshot but I hope he can improve his game and rectify his mistakes.

InB4 Captain obvious lol

Playbook? 

Jets had no Playbook.

They had ADAM GASE, for crying out loud.

Most of Darnold's problems came when nothing was there. When it was he usually was spot on. But when the play was broken and he had no one to throw too he just tried to make something happen. That was the problem and that's why we brought him here. Because of that experience, he developed some bad habits which our staff is trying to fix but he has it. Darnold is going to be the comeback player of the year and will only keep improving with time. We will finally have a real franchise QB. Just give it time and you'll see.

    • Let it all out bro.   At the end of the day Charlotte fans just aren't that passionate as other fans. The Panthers and Hornets crowds are wack.    Go to a Canes game and you will understand this. Tell the family I said hi and Happy Father's Day.
    • Dude you have no idea what you're talking about. Best place to live?  LMAO... that's your criteria...  Charlotte gets put all over those lists too... come on man... and those lists have zero to do with sports. I'm done after this bc I'm punching down intellectually here... The Panthers have been bad for 6 years now. You are obviously young and not overly educated based off the "dunks" you're putting out there that certainly are, so let me educate you today on the Panthers. The Panthers sold out for well over a decade straight. BOA has been as good an environment as there is when the team is good.  Fan support for the Panthers has been incredible when the team has even remotely reciprocated. The idea that Charlotte doesn't support the Panthers is utter BS. People in Raleigh have the biggest little brother syndrome of all time... Nobody outside of the Triangle cares about any of your "vaunted" sports team outside of Duke-UNC in basketball on a national scale. Sure, the Canes are great. But nationally, the WWE dwarfs the NHL in ratings. More people care about Cody Rhodes than Sebastian Aho... or anyone else in the NHL for that matter... I doubt less than 5% of anyone in this state outside of Raleigh even knows who that is... that's a knock on Aho who is a great player, it's just the NHL barely makes a ripple in the overall hierarchy of American sports. It's not in the same universe as the NFL or NBA no matter how badly you want to tell yourself otherwise. Raleigh is not a big-time sports city, no matter how much you want to scream into the abyss about it. Neither is Charlotte. But no one here is making such a nonsense argument... LOL it's good to be young and to be ignorant enough to be confidently wrong... WTF are you even on this board though since Charlotte is so beneath you? There is an actual discussion board on this very site for Raleigh sports since they are so superior...  Maybe it's bc I'm watching Idiocracy with my son, but your timing is perfect, my man... The dumbest among us have become the most confidence in their ignorance... God Bless America!!
    • You do know the biggest military base in the US is located just an hour from Raleigh in Fort Bragg right? Military families are family oriented. A hour drive to games is nothing compared to traveling 3 hours to Charlotte.   Cmon man there is nothing happening in Western Carolina other than Charlotte. I only go west for outdoor activities and some nature/mountain views.
