Watching how quick Tom Brady gets the ball out of his hands in the Tampa/Dallas game last night shows me the blueprint for how Darnold could have a successful future in the NFL. It's probably the only way he has a future.

If Joe Brady can dial up the easy completion plays for Darnold and the defense can shut down a rookie QB it should be an easy win. I'll be concerned if they're calling 7 step drops with that O-Line. I won't rule it out because this is the Panthers we're talking about after all.

Brees used to kill us the same way.

Cam got killed because Rivera's OCs could never figure out how to run an offense that got the ball out quick.

Joe Brady >> all the other OCs

I don’t think we know enough to say that yet. 

i saw what i needed to in that one half against the steelers. i saw how he responds to the initial pressure and i saw him settle down and get into a groove fairly quickly. weapons around him and a scheme that helps him will help him settle down against a tougher D than we saw from the steelers. 

he was alone on an island last year (that's who he was). he's not anymore...he's surrounded by talent and good coaching and doesn't have to do it all now (that's who he is).

I saw the Steelers using 3rd stringers, and Darnold couldn't moved the ball, until a punt returner fumbled the ball. And that 2 min drive, lol, are any of them guys still on the team????

The Jets secondary is probably worse than the Steelers second string.

Yeah totally. 160 yards passing in 1 half is definitely not moving the ball. What fuging planet do you live on dude?

11/16 84 yrds, before the punt fumble...avg about 5.25 yards and that was after RAC...alot of check downs, 2nd string defense didn't play after 1st quarter...it was 2nd quarter with about 9 minutes left when the punt fumble occurred. So yeah 162 yards total at half 2TDs against 3 rd stringers... against 5 2nd stringers 5 3 Rd stringers 1 starter, he went 11/16 84 yards, sacked once, had a fumble ruled as an incomplete pass...once again before the punt fumble

    • Any QB worth his weight in gold is going to get his guys the ball. Of course he has to have the protection, coaching and experience to do that. Moreover, it has yet to be determined what type of situation this is for a rookie wideout. The most important thing that will determine that is coaching.
    • I watched it this afternoon and I thought some of the best discussions was before it even got to the players. One thing that really jumped out to me was when Smitty was asked about how things have changed since he played and the thing he talked about was how when he played and going back to Jerry Rice says, the #1 targeted or looked to receiver was always the X and there's still a lot of people who's minds are still stuck in that idea. But what has happened is that the, what he calls, the F receiver...the flanker...is now the go to guy. You need the X to try and get safeties out of the box, but the QB is now looking for his flanker most of the time. Lots of good discussions all through it, but for some reason the ones involving Ladd, Corley, and Leggette was the most interesting. Ladd was how he may be best fit for just the slot, but he's the best slot guy in the draft and he's just a guy who gets open and doesn't drop the ball. Corley and Leggette are playmakers who are at a risk of being pigeonholed. Leggette is too stiff to be a slot guy but he can do things like Metcalf. Corley is likely to be used much as he was in college, as the big playmaker you just get the ball in his hands however you can, but he's got a lot of room for development as a receiver. It's just good football talk all the way through  
    • I'd resigned myself to 2000 and never.   Cautiously optimistic based on this off season that 2026 is a real possibility.
