Where are the posters saying Darnold can only hit check downs to CMC?

Where are the posters questioning his leadership?

Come on out, guys. Tell me why Darnold isnt going to work out because he's the same he was in NY under Gase.

It's pretty easy to see who doesn't actually watch the game based on the people who post this.

I think mav's point was that Sam can make all the throws and not be checkdown Charlie or rather Checkdown Teddy like some here said earlier.

Ah sorry original reply didn't mean to implicate Mav who I replied to, but the quotes of those who think Sam Darnold is just checkdown charlie, so agreeing with his point.

I still haven't gotten use to how incredibly quick Sam's release is. The ball launches off his hand  

Seeing him side step traffic in the pocket, to launch the ball 20 yards on a frozen rope, and hitting a receiver in stride is a thing of beauty.  

man he had DJ for a TD if he just took a little bit off his laser-of-a-throw to him.   Just off his fingertips....

Very pleased with his progress overall thus far.

If he hit this throw the narrative we’d be hearing right now from media is that he would be borderline elite. That would have bloated his numbers and been a replay they’d show over and over

I think we are seeing Darnold grow in chemistry with DJ and some other receivers so I wouldn't be surprised if he is hitting those by end of year.

Well if anything was proven last night, it's that the Jets did not truly break him like the Texans did to David Carr.

But yeah...it's imperative that they keep him healthy which is why i would like to see more bootlegs and rollouts.

I was going to say this ^^^...

He hasn't been broken and the Clay is still ready to be formed into a franchise QB...

The flashes of a 1st round elite QB is still in there somewhere.... Big arm, going thru progression, got wheels can throw lasers from different platforms and can make off scripted  plays when needed.. Now Hopefully we can find pocket awareness and protecting the ball better .. But the 1st 3 weeks are a big step in the right direction...

This is essentially his first true Rookie season since he's getting some actual DEVELOPMENT for the first time ever.

Lets jump in the Wayback Machine and go back 5 months- "We can trade this and next years #1s and a couple of #2s and get a TOP 3 QB!!! Brilliant!!"

OR

"We can trade next years #2 and #4 and get a TOP 3 QB from 2018!!! Plus, we get to keep DJ Moore!! Brilliant!!!"

      I have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies

      You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.
