Sam isn’t Aaron Rodgers.  He isn’t going to be.  That’s okay.    Sam is good enough with our weapons. 

we need to build a respectable OL.  And we still need to add talent at LB.    MLB specifically.  Shaq is playing great this year but we need more talent at the next level IMO

Justin Herbert at home vs Cowboys - 31/41, 338 yards, 1 TD, 2 INT, 87.2 QB Rating, 12 rushing yards

Sam Darnold on the road vs Cowboys - 26/39, 301 yards, 2 TDs, 2 INTs, 85.5 QB Rating, 35 rushing yards, 2 TDs

If I get banned for this, I don't care.  But for those of ya'll hating on Darnold... shut the hell up.  Darnold is 24 years old on a new team (after spending years on a GARBAGE one) and is quite frankly playing wayyyy better than anyone could have reasonably expected.  And you got people being negative about it?  Come on man.  

Those 2 picks were bad and he's gotta hit Robby and Moore on those 2 passes deep, but other than that?  Brother was BALLING.  I was there and the OL looked dreadful.  And Darnold ain't care.  Escaping pressure, getting the ball off.  If you didn't come away impressed with Darnold after that game, then your football opinion is 100% irrelevant.  And I don't say that lightly.  Like holy crap.  Dude was far, far from the issue.

Some people are just never happy. Others are more invested in having their opinions validated than in seeing us win.

KInda sad, honestly.

I was very hesitant about trading for Darnold, but he has played great and I’m thrilled about it. I hope he gets better and becomes our franchise QB. I love being wrong when it’s in the Panther’s favor!

Anyone blaming today’s loss on Sam must not have watched the super bowl. Pat Mahomes looked rough without an O.L. 

Without 2 rushing t.d.’s from Darnold we would not be in this game. How soon we forget.

EXACTLY.

Would Teddy Two-Gloves, for example, have done that?   Nope.

Hell we wouldn't even have been in this game from the start with him at QB.

If simply telling people to shut up equates to getting banned here, I think this would be a ghost town.  LOL!

But yeah...He has done terrific considering he has Construction-Paper guarding him at Center.  

Did I mention I want Paradis fired into the sun?

      2026 NFL Combine Thread: 2.26.26 - 3.1.26

      Not in same league. Caldwell just hit a 10.00 on the RAS. 2nd out of 3830 from 1987 onward.  https://x.com/MathBomb/status/2027885023387349047 Yeah I mean Louis had a sub 9.00 RAS. Still very very good, no doubt. Louis is small, no 2 ways about it. He is likely a sub package lb in nickel packages or specialized WLB. Be fine ST gunner to start for sure. 6 foot flat and 220lb is pushing it for a starting LB. At 10 to 20lbs less than the other LBs he'd better be closer to the top in most timed drills. He's gonna be challenged when some of the wrs in the class can matchup bigger stronger faster, much less TE in the run game.  Yeah instinct matter and he has them, but that size is a massive red flag compared to many of the other LBS in this class.    Rodriguez is the LB that really climbed this week from a pure grit guy to great flash with athleticism people wrote off cause he was a QB at first at UVA. 18.4mph in the backpedal. Production the last 2 years were great. I'd be thrilled with him as the future mike.   Hill likely moved out of 51 and into the top 45 picks ( Ravens at 45 I can't imagine don't bite if he makes it there). Honestly Hill imo is a 1st rounder and I'd be ok with him as he fits the MLB we have missed the last few years. People would crow it's a reach but he's top 30 all-time I'm RAS for a LB at 9.9+ . Plus he was big time in big games when he was healthy. And that br a big check: meds.

      Miller, Melo, Coby, Moose, and Bridges all on the floor at the same time must be a nightmare for defenses lol. Switch one out for Kon and still a nightmare. Coby really does bring a true 6th man value and looks like he could start if Melo was out after only a few games of getting his feet wet.

      Well I guess he should stop playing football. This was his defining moment and chance to prove he was generational and he failed. What a waste of football life..
