I can see where that comes from with his body of work so far, but I think he can be better than what he has shown.  How much better remains to be seen though.

But thats the thing - his body of work was just fine for a young, developing QB for his first 2 seasons.  Its only last season which was putrid.  His first 2 seasons he was ~60% passing with a 17/15 and 19/13 TD to INT ratio.  Even last year was 9/11 so its not like hes some Jameis Winston level turnover machine.  Hes got a cannon for an arm, is very athletic and has a quick release.  Objectively I just do not get all the hate for the guy.

So there's about 8 guys on that list I wouldn't put over Darnold. At least 15 I wouldn't want over Darnold. Fitzpatrick? Dalton? Taylor? Jalen Hurts is a college QB at best. Everyone knows that. Pretty sure the Eagles know that and hope to replace him next draft.

I think they replaced him with a 6th round pick.

“Preseason play didn’t inspire confidence” 

 

Sports media is made up of a bunch of morons. I’m not sure half of them even watch sports. 

“When word quotas attack”. This statement diminishes the credibility of the argument. He may very well be deserving of this rank right now but this statement screams that they just threw together a list for content.

It was one half against mostly backups vs three years of history against starters. I can see their point even if I don't like it.

The article said "but Darnold's preseason play didn't inspire confidence."

The comment implies that he had a poor preseason.  It has nothing to do with his history.

2020 stats: 12 games | 59.6 pct | 2,208 pass yds | 6.1 ypa | 9 pass TD | 11 INT | 217 rush yds | 2 rush TD | 2 fumbles lost


Teddy 2020 (with CMC 3 games, mike Davis, DJ Moore, Robby Anderson, Curtis Samuel): 

15 games, 3733 yards, 15 TD, 11 int


we gained a stronger arm and better attitude. Not worried.

For the people screaming clickbait, you gotta be honest. If you want good clickbait, you'd target a fanbase a lot bigger than ours or a QB a lot higher profile than Darnold with your bottom ranking. The reality is that the average NFL fan just doesn't care about the Panthers and/or Sam Darnold. We've both been written off as essentially irrelevant until proven otherwise.

Historically, that's when we do our best work. So, let's get to workin' guys!

      NFL top 10 Defenses

      By Basbear · Posted

      I believe Lloyd will elevate not just the whole unit, but also whoever his running mate is. Wallace is still very young, I think he's only 23 with two years of exp now. Cherelus can handle starting, he's just fighting with staying healthy. Kuwatch I think is going to be a contender after a couple week of understanding the system.  I mean Lee will be against..... what nearly 10 NFL-level WRs, he's going to get work and its up to him if he can hang.  I think its fair to expect 12th +/- 3 or 4 spots.  You know this, it boils down to how healthy everyone stays.....cause if dbrown, horn, Lloyd, Michael Jackson, or tervon miss extended time.....no way 10th can be reached. IF all the names above remain haethly, I do think 10th should be the goal. They are a young unit and added talent to a 16th ranked unit. Its time to march forward!!

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      Varying degrees all around but it starts at the top. That is where the buck stops. It has been 8 years of stupid, long before Morgan came back. Or Tillis was hired. Made it to the top of stupid mountain in 2023. Stayed in stupid limbo for a while, now we are prepping to scale the next mountain. In this case, I like those guys’ roster building better than what we have had so I am okay with them as our current pawns in the game of Bryce.

      Don't let me gas him up too much, but I hear this and that...... I seen a wide body man with a quick burst, that's able to shed blocks and if extends his long arms its over. He tore up the OL in the senior, you seen about 10 plays and the dog walking OLman. There's other plays of him doing the same, just have to deal with fetus talking over the plays. Plus there's this-  https://x.com/PFF_College/status/2018385471068332410?lang=en     I hope he's ready, cause Id like to see him starting and doing his thang with dbrown, nic, and Phillips.
