NFL talent evaluators aren't gonna love that game from Howell. Particularly that last pick. But they're going to see some special throws too. They're gonna see numerous dropped passes. They're going to see that only one WR could create separation and actually catch a ball. They're going to see that UNC might as well have been playing a 3rd OT rather than they're TE because he was utterly useless as a recoecer. They're gonna see the 1st INT that was a perfectly thrown ball caught by a receiver who let a DB simply take it from him. They're gonna see that the second INT was a tipped pass at the LOS. The stat sheet looks a lot worse than the actual performance did if you were just looking to evaluate the QB as a prospect.

That's what a lot of people got caught up in with Wilson's game vs. Coastal too. They were watching a football game instead of evaluating the prospect. You can't judge the prospect by the outcome of the play, just by what he did with the opportunity given on that play or the opportunity he outright created out of nothing.

 

You just described Sam's time in NY.

I mean, there are you tube videos up featuring all his INTs from every season.   

It's a tough sell for someone to watch them....and for you to then claim they were largely great defensive plays and bad breaks.  

Sam Darnold made some really terrible decisions about what to do with the football in NY.   The type stuff a NFL QBs just shouldn't do.   Which is the knock on Sam.  Not his physical talent.

Yeah...One Sam gets excused, the other gets roasted. 

 

Just because you are grumpy, does not mean you have to shove it down the throats of others.

Yep. Unfortunately, the narrative that it was all his poor protection, etc. just doesn't hold up. Maybe it was terrible coaching and development, but a lot of his bad plays were from a clean pocket and just terrible throws or terrible decisions or both.

Uhh...it wasn't his choice to be drafted by the Jets.

Not sure how this picture invalidates what he stated in the vid. 

Once again I always giving props to Darnold in a sly slick way....

Keyshawn knows more about having success away from the Jets than most...He did win a superbowl with the Bucs

You know my view but at the same time I was listening to Keyshawn's view. Told you I'm not hoping Darnold fails, I'm not believing he will succeed...there's a difference.

      Travis Hunter on T-Mac

      By Seltzer · Posted

      T-Mac put up good numbers for 3 consecutive seasons on teams without a good QB situation, and in an environment where T-Mac got game planned against weekly and still performed. Teams threw all kinds of defensive coverages against T-Mac, and he still found ways week in and week out to contribute at a high level. XL was basically a 1-year wonder. Doesn't mean he cant be great (and I think him & T-Mac will compliment each other well), but i think T-Mac is the more polished of the 2 right now. This certainly isn't a perfect comparison, but I hope XL & T-Mac can approximate what we had with Smitty & Moose (Although i think T-Macs ceiling is higher than Moose and XLs ceiling is lower than Smitty). Both those guys were multiple Pro Bowlers and even All-Pro. T-Mac & XL have a long way to go to actually being comparable, but the potential is there. And regardless of how this season turns out, you can actually see a strategic plan being executed. On paper, I think this offensive roster has as much talent as any Panthers team since 2017. Defense is still a question mark, and it's unrealistic to think we will go from being historically bad to great in 1 year, but based on historical and statistical data, we stand a much better chance of turning the defense around in 1 year than the offense. I still want us to potentially add at S, CB, and ILB, but this roster is exponentially better than the roster heading into the 2023 season. Which still begs the question of how & why the team thought they were in a good position to trade all the way up. Regardless, it's in the past, and while the past 2 years have mostly sucked, we are strategically in a much better position than we have been in years. This is easily the best WR group since 2020 IMO (Moore, Anderson, Samuel). I'm super excited about what T-Mac can bring to this offense and team, and I'm really hoping we continue to build off where we ended last year offensively, and hopefully we've made enough improvements on defense to be competitive. I've also been vocal for the most part in supporting BY9. He came into an awful situation and to a team that was in no position to make such a trade.   Still, this is Year 3. And this is a team that IMHO has both the talent & depth on offense to score and score a lot. Most QBs that ever amount to anything are competing by Year 3. There are no excuses for the offense not to perform. I think BY9 knows full well what's riding on this year in terms of his long term future.  And I think T-Mac is a massive piece in helping Bryce and the team get over the hump and back into playoff contention.
