rare?

Anderson was wide open, and had to slow up.

If it would have been tight coverage it probably would have been an incompletion.

A rare throw is when your WR is covered but the QB puts it in the one little spot where the WR can catch it.

Don't get me wrong, it was a nice completion, but not what I would consider a big time throw.

 

It definitely wasn't a "rare" throw. I don't have a problem with it though. He made the safe throw. Anderson was wide open. Slowing him down a little was the safe throw. Trying to hit him in stride and you risk overthrowing for no benefit.

This. Darnold missed the throw to Darnold and he missed the throw to Marshall on the out route in the endzone. He should've had three TD passes.

and that is my point, those are the types of throws that good QBs make more often than bad QBs. 

No QB makes them all of the time and no QB in the league misses them all of the time.  The good QBs do it a higher percentage of the time than the bad QBs do.  Its only one game so not fair to say which side he is on yet, but by the end of the season that is what we have to look at.

Throwing a bunch of each check downs to CMC doesn't mean you are a good QB.

Just quickly looking at game logs.

11 third downs where we attempted a pass.

6/11 completion percentage but only 3/11 on conversions.  Several throws short of the sticks.  Are we looking for a QB that we can win with if everything else goes good or a QB that can carry a team?

Teddy could have done what was done today.

Yep.

I even saw the players/coaches talking to Thomas on the sidelines immediately afterwards (granted there was no sound). I assumed they were wanting to keep his confidence up after the drop, but it could have been telling him good job/effort getting open.

I think you're the only person trying to paint that as a "drop". Sorry man. It was an awful throw and Thomas failed to come up with a complete circus catch on it.

I don’t think Teddy hits Anderson deep enough for him to run it in. That’s a stop your route and catch the underthrown ball while getting tackled throw by Teddy all day….

I mean it was a 45 yard off platform throw, but ok.

Sam has a shot at being the second or third best QB in franchise history. I was more confident going into today with him versus any point with Teddy last year. Saw nothing today to change my mind on that.

Lol 2nd or 3rd? I hope he's way better than that considering the best we ever had was average at best. A couple of them had a great year but we've never had a great QB. It would be nice if Darnold could consistently be a good one for 10 years or more. He's be our first in franchise history.

      Some Thoughts on Legette based upon an ex-scout's ranking him WR1 in the draft

      By MHS831 · Posted

      No, he has a long way to go to be that--I think he is probably referring to his ceiling--I think Legette has more room to grow from where he is that those more polished WRs.  When you look at his potential, it presents an argument that is not so one sided.  Of those three, only Odunze had a higher RAS score 9.92.  XL had a 9.90.  Malik Nabors had a 9.67.  Harrison Jr.  did not have one.  I am not sure that Legette has not overcome more obstacles to be where he is, and if you consider his adversity, his story might be more incredible, even though he is only a second tier rookie right nowm with Mitchell, Thomas, Pearsall, and maybe McConkey.  I am going from memory-but you have to think of things as a kid-when he was 16, his mother died of breast cancer.  When he entered S Carolina, his father died.  They had some issues and QB problems and the OL was terrible in Columbia---the others you mentioned?  None of that family drama, and they played at Washington, Ohio State, and LSU.  Huge difference.  I am proud of him as a man--when all his chips were on the table--when he had no more chances, he broke through and became a first round draft pick.  A school with a losing record, mediocre QB, and bad OL.  Mentally, he was struggling through the losses of both parents.  Amazing story.  Is he as good as those three who played at top universities?  Not yet.
