Sam Darnold Thoughts After Game 1

Overall I think he was impressive.  I think in the 2nd half he missed a couple of throws that may have put some pressure on him but after NYJ go their first score Darnold marched the Panthers down to scoring postion and got us up by 2 scores again.

Gotta get that O-line in shape though.

He was a warrior standing in the pocket and making throws at the last moment.  I was overhall happy with his preformance.

Looked mostly like a pretty savvy vet out there.  Cool.  Calm. Collected.

Good arm strength. 

Accuracy was a bit off but I think that will come through with more reps & gametime.  

All in all a fine first game.

Loved that QB draw.  Don't know if that decision was his or Brady's with no Safety deep.  But that's what good teams do - make the D pay for their mistakes.

low tier game manager, but at least he's only being paid like one

can you explain this take? the way he took hits, bounced back from mistakes, demonstrated significant arm strength, etc... didn't strike me as a game manager.

it is true our offensive philosophy is dink and dunkish, but that's partly because of the atrocity that is the OL.

Playcalling was very up and down.

Brady needs to adjust.  It was obvious that Salah made some defensive changes at halftime and Brady didn't seem to adjust.  His best play was the misdirection with DJ Moore which is something I think they should have done more of.  Get that defense second guessing again.  

They obviously were targeting CMC.  We have other weapons and Brady IMO didn't use them enough.

I agree.  Somehow, Moore had 80 yards receiving, but it felt like he wasn't being utilized enough.  Robby had that one deep bomb... Just need to get these WRs more involved in the game somehow.  The one 2nd half drive that yielded points saw a lot of nice efforts to get WRs the ball in space.

    • I agree with you in that I think we can take one on the road, two against this opponent would be a tall order.  Not impossible, but we'd be making it awfully hard on ourselves.
    • Dylan Larkin has requested a trade from the Red Wings: https://thescore.com/nhl/news/3550045 Trade Aho for Larkin. Work it out. Whatever it takes. I've always liked Larkin's game and I think he'd be a great fit alongside Jarvy and Svech.
    • This is a how I recall it as well. It was one "this year" 2nd and two future 1sts. Very few are able to predict the future, but I feel you had to label those 1st as late 20s. The true blunder was what you stated, before you turn down that massive offer, its a 100% must you sign Burns cause that value is still elite QB level offer. As we know either happened and Dan was a first time GM needing to fix this blunder of blunders. He or the group made the choice about not giving BB 30 per, I get it since he had holes in his game.  The issue here is the issue since 2018= tepper. Sometime either during the hiring process or with the two years, Im fairly certain trepper demanded a QB on the roster with a capable roster to compete. Fittererererererer job was on the line and he gassed up trepper into believing BY and the roster were ready to win..................... That roster of 2023 in hindsight was awful, I was wrong....... I thought even with a rookie BY they could have challenged for the NFC south, not a chance with that dogshit team and coaching staff.......whom I was also fooled about. Now you have the worst team 2-14 without 1st overall pick, DJ Moore, and no Brian Burns.  I don't know what or why or ____ just the panthers and finding good WRs with long careers is just cursed. You got Smitty and moose, that's about it for 25 years until they drafted DJ Moore.....so 3 dudes in 26+ years AND you trade one for a QB whom needs a team that doesn't struggle to find WRs......... Fittererererere was just like Morgan, he was a rookie GM and this team even back to 2020 just has failed at adding talent, young talent, or difference makers. Even look at the roster- Dbrown is about the only great player drafted in what feels like 10 years(horn struggles and tmac only 1 year)..... Treppers pressure is legend and him bringing in people with such little exp to fix the team was the main reason for 2 win 5 win seasons. He should have hired a old gray haired guy, but I know treppers ego would not allow someone else to have the answer.  I've work with teppers type and still do...... Smart people observing them know "if its not their idea, they want nothing to do with cause weird human reasons" Doesnt matter if my idea can solve the issues with 24 hours and it 100% corrects the problem, nah his plan is for 3 weeks with different Appaloosa Strategies.......... I do think he finally took a few steps back and allowed Dan and Daves staff to learn on the job, he had no choice given the league refused his money.
