It’s Official….Sam D was worth the trade.

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

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.

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.

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?

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
