The Athletic not very impressed with Sam Darnold

The thing is they and others are too concerned with declaring him great or not. The whole crowning thing. If they just look at what he's done on the field this year it's an easier judgement but less controversial.

Enjoy watching each game, grade it, and relax.

He basically went back and looked at every single play from that vid you provided and proved you wrong, yet you are going to stick your head in the sand and still claim it's a first read? 

The irony here is that Gooby has been caught making sh-t up himself on more than one occasion.

The offence is actually designed around pre-snap reads.

Brady has made it really simple for Darnold:

 

 

Exactly. You get to the line quickly, look at the defense and then adjust your play and protections based on what Darnold sees. You try and get favorable matchups or overloads for an easy pitch and catch. I used to hate that NO would always have someone open on every play but now that we run a similar scheme, I love it.  I mean I hate the Saints but like their offensive scheme.

How dastardly evil of him to execute the play the way it was drawn up.  If he was a better QB, he would improvise instead, right?

My friend you are debating with a fool. My unwanted advice is to save your energy for someone that has a clue of what they are talking about.

I know.  It was a momentary lapse in judgment.

People keep mentioning Brady but few or none have mentioned Sean Ryan’s name and contribution to Sam’s success thus far.  Brady gets credit for scheme and play calling but it is Ryan who is in Sam’s ear and head between each offensive series.

Sean Ryan, the QB whisperer…

Sean Ryan, the Anti-Gase.

Nope your just taking offense to me calling him a one read QB.

Here’s Greg Cosell backing up everything already said. God knows where the other guy is getting 3rd and 4th options from
