So... Sam Darnold. Are you encouraged or discouraged

Both.

Encouraged by the way he threw the ball in a clean pocket.

Discouraged that he still sees ghosts and panics at the first hint of pressure.

I always wonder if Sam was never MIC'd up and we never heard the Ghosts comment, that this would be in everyone's vocabulary right now?

he is the definition of just a dude

this is a 7 win team max

you might get poo for that but it’s the truth.

however a small amount of hope remains in that it is extremely hard to judge a qb on this team with the mini traffic cones we call the oline

Wish we had a better offensive line to guage his play solely on its merits alone, but it's hard to say.  He had more good moments than bad.  That first sack rattled him for a bit.  I think he will settle in eventually.  Not sure I can can say that for the current offensive line configuration.

Our defense alone is good for 7 wins.   Sam plays like he did tonight and we are looking at 10-11 wins easy.

    • agree to disagree you are entitled to that opinion even though I find the argument completely bizarre based on data. I could type out a long paragraph discussing those areas but what’s the point. I posted a screenshot that showed Bryce in a similar post snap situation with a free rusher in his face which resulted in a TD - that’s what happened on the play so I posted it. 
    • I've already addressed this notion in a previous reply. You are basing your assertion outside reality if you think Bryce would have not only been more successful but defeated the Patriots in place of Herbert. Bryce got blown off the field by that Patriots team with the highest paid OL in the league. We've seen Bryce with an OL that gave up 65 sacks and it resulted in the #1 pick. And that is not a defense of Herbert or arguing he is a great QB in any way. He has physical talent but he has been similar to Darnold early in his career in terms of his very up and down perfomances. However that does not change the fact that they have significantly less invested in the OL than the Panthers.
    • I think Tepper has been setting the stage where pending there is no miracle he wipes it all clean.  Think you already have been told that with small things like Evero staying.  Bryce is the guy next year.  OC, DC, everything stays the same.  QB room largely the same.  Nothing would really matter there.  They basically get one more shot and it goes how the schedule paired with our 27th ranked O predictably most likely goes.  Everyone out the door together.  Bryce is a bridge tier QB.  I don’t see Dave surviving where he could be bridge QB here in reality.
