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

I honestly blame Sam’s issues on the Oline. Honestly amazing that he’s played this well behind such a terrible offensive line. Worst I’ve ever seen from the Panthers.

Anyone defending this OL all year needs to examine their intellectual ability. It was so obvious the entire time.

We are lucky it took 4 games for it to get us.

He’s still worth the trade so suck an egg. Bad day and we will learn from it. 

I honestly don’t think he was worth the time trade but that’s just me. He is decent and our o line leaves much to be desired but 3 years into your pro career : you are who you are

I’ll @ you after the game and give you his year to date totals. The result of this game does not change my opinion that he was absolutely worth the trade capital we spent to get him.

I do like him being resilient. I’m just calling how I feel. Not trashing him but I really don’t think he is the answer.

He's right.

You'd have to be pretty stupid to not see that.

Sam is not magically going to start connecting on passes longer than 20-yards because of the O-line getting magically better either. You’d have to be equally as stupid AND blind to not see the obvious. 
 

Got go off, Football Historian.

Oh please. 

Hell the Chargers only sacked Mahomes twice last week, but he had worse stats than Darnold this game. I’m not saying Darnold is our next franchise QB, but this game was a disaster on many levels; bad calls by the refs, missed FG leading to a short TD, defense got crushed the 2nd half, our offensive line got dominated, and Darnold had INTs from pressure reads. They all go hand in hand. The lingering problem is our line has been bad all year, but we were able to hide it with CMC, leaning on our defense, and throwing quick passes to control the clock. If we fall behind we aren’t going to have a chance with this line. Teams are going to blitz the middle and left all day long…

The protection cause those ints. They both were rushed throws and lacked zip or placement. He was throwing from a crowded pocket all game and still put up crazy good stats. Let alone almost brought us back if not for terrible run defense and time out management we might have had a better chance. This loss was good we have glaring weaknesses to fix and no excuses to avoid them.

    • I agree with this and I think it's worth mentioning too that Bryce is not consistent on his placement and especially velocity and that in large part is driven by his footwork. We all know XL doesn't have the best hands and I don't know that he can overcome that. Cam always had the heater that just hit your hands and sank into your grip, where Bryce has some that are harder thrown, some soft. Bryce stepping into a pass looks so much different than that hop throw thing he does. I think XL really needs to hit the jugs machine and start learning how to catch all these different touch passes. TMac and Coker don't have these issues. If XL doesn't get some work in he's going to be out of the league in the next couple of years. 
    • I think most people like XL from a personal standpoint. I don't think he's stupid either. Although if we are being realistic he is lacking in football IQ at this point in time and it cannot be disputed that he has not taken working on his craft seriously at all times given the body of work on the field. It speaks for itself. I myself have defended him at times given the circumstances of our QB room. But he is now in his third year and 25 years old. We are not in a position as a franchise to go around babying anyone especially first round draft picks. He needs to take his position and his football career seriously or he is going to end up selling used cars somewhere. I hope he realizes this and takes an extended break from social media because that mess certainly isn't going to increase his net worth if he ends up out of the league. And these hanger on types will disappear quick too once that money dries up and it surely will eventually. We'll see how he responds.
