Think that's enough to silence some of the "it'd be unprecedented for him to turn into a good NFL QB after those first three years in NY" doubters?

No.  No it won't be. Next it'll be how bad the fact he only has 3 passing TDs is, and how the OL being such garbage DLs can knock the ball away while he's trying to escape pressure is evidence of how bad his decision making is.

 Nothing.  He was humble, deferred all credit, praised the Texans, and gave Qb answers.

What was the best was seeing him react to having fans cheer for him and chant his name.  You can tell it meant something to him.

He looks so relaxed and happy.  Haven’t seen that in a long time, it’s genuine and spontaneous.  Carolina suits his personality better, more than NY.

If you watch the videos after the game, one of the olineman and Riddick (sp?) had a lot of praise for Sam, calling him a “gamer”.  If your teammates respect you as the QB,  praise your toughness, says more about the QB than any praise by a media member or fans can say. Shut out the noise, play for each other as brothers, the wins will continue.

It's hilarious that the top 3 most popular topics in the Jets forum is about Darnold and how it was a mistake to trade him. 

You have folks here still claiming him a bust.  They want to see him come back from a 30 point deficit before they will say he might be alright. 

Personally I hope this team never has to play from behind.  What kind of fan would ever want their team to trail in a game?  That's some messed up way to look at life. I pity those that can only find joy in the misfortunes of others.

Wait.  You’re telling me we could trail in a game??

Hasn’t happened yet this season, crazy man.  After three games I’m sure it would’ve happened, if it were even possible.

pfffft… trailing in a game?  HA!

Well normally when Fans chanted his name, it was followed by "You Suck" over in NY so I'm sure this will take some getting used to.

What is great for us is that he doesn't have to go through the rookie learning curve. He has three years of experience under his belt. Granted, the experience was brutal, but he has seen a lot in his three years under center.

I think that experience is why he is able to become houdini with his escape tactics due to an unreliable-at-times O-line.  

He's seen it all before....for 3 years.

    • This is huge may not be a trap game but this plays a major part in what they want to do. If we can get some pressure on Sam we know what he does with pressure coming hit and heavy. Also we may be able to take the top off their defense a backup safety trying to stop TMac or Cooker over the top or forcing him to play the backend should allow us to run the ball somewhat effectively. Either they allow some runs or we take some shots and if Bryce and whoever can connect deep we’ll be in business for another big time win against a top notch opponent. Might not be a trap game but health travel game plans all play a major role in each weeks game plan and this week might be leaving our way. We’re missing some replaceable pieces they’re missing key anchors to the offense and defense major difference time to solidly ourselves at one of the top teams in the nfc tomorrow fellas buckle up.
    • Yes.  If I am not mistaken, we need to sign Coker to the ERFA tender and insist that XL spends his spring and summer at a WR camp and not Coon huntin on his four wheeler.  XL was raw when we picked him--which is why I wanted to go another direction--and we are seeing how raw.  He is basically learning a position.     The Panthers will make their move in 2026 to be an NFL powerhouse behind Bryce.  Bryce needs intelligent WRs who catch the ball.  That said, we need a solid #2 to challenge XL and make cutting him easy, if necessary.  A #2 WR (intented to be a #1 by now) with under 400 yards is embarrassing.   On offense, you have to ask, "Where can we get better?"  In my view, #2 WR, TE (although they are improving) and maybe C (again, if we re-sign Mays, he is trending up and at 26, entering his prime--I say stay with him and find competition later in the draft (not good for C).  OL depth maybe?  In other words, XL is a glaring weak spot.
