Sam Darnold

Watched the game today.  My opinion is Dallas is a good team, they played at home, and played a great game. Carolina didn't play such a great game--although it wasn't awful. They were within 1 score when the game ended. I guess I was just a little surprised at the huge holes Dallas was making in the Carolina D line. What did they rush for like 220yds?

Anyway I am not a huge NFL fan. I follow college football here in California.  USC UCLA etc. I dropped by your board to see your posts and IMO , I really feel bad for Sam Darnold.  I am not saying Sam Darnold is the next Tom Brady. Sam Darnold is a average -maybe a little bit better than average QB. That's not all that bad. Remember the Ravens won the superbowl with  Trent Dilfer in 2000.  Poor Sam.  For some reason , no matter where he goes, he is expected to overcome poor OL play, poor play calling, (when he was in NY) not having any talent around him...and the expectations are if he doesn't elevate this group of mediocre football players to the 1978 Pittsburgh Steelers level, well he is a bust.  I have never seen anyone with such hih expectations hung on them.  When the Jets or The Panthers win, well Sam did a good job but so di the WR's and Deense and so on....whenthey lsoe,  well that's because Sam is a idiot. a Bust. get rid of him.  a game manager at best.  I am not sure why everyone expects him to carry an entire crappy football team to a super bowl by himself and if he doesn't, well he is a overrated bust?

Kinda asking alot.   And you guys are treating him the same as the Jets fans did.  HIs stats today were good. Not great, but good...and what do I see? yeah but he had an INT. We lost though. He is not the answer. I just don't like him.  How many people are discussing the HORRIBLE play by the panthers defense today?  a few. But those comments are  shut down as  "excises for how bad sam darnold is."  

If you think it's so easy to go out and win a football game, have at it and give it a shot.

    • I'm really not stressing about upgrading from Bryce. I'm frustrated with our inability (or refusal) to recognize overall bad QB performance and failure to seriously address the issue. QB is the most impactful position on the field, and we're not only settling for what we've been given to this point, but we've rewarded it with a fully guaranteed 5th year extension for a player that's never played 2 NFL franchise QB quality games back to back in 3 seasons. I can't understand how that's ok from a coach's or GM's viewpoint. Successful franchises don't do things like this. It just doesn't make sense.  We do not have a top half of the league QB right now. Since we don't have that player, we should be looking for him. Pickett isn't it. Grier isn't it. Bryce hasn't proven he is yet. Until you have that sure fire franchise QB, you keep looking. You're not consistently making the playoffs, a deep run, or a SB appearance without one.  What's the worst that could happen? We end up with 2 potential number 1 QBs? How horrible. 
    • Easy to understand Pickett, if this is anywhere close to on point. Canales wants to get as close to Bryce as he can- get the pace and timing in the throws as close a he can to Bryce. So the other players don’t have to adjust so much, to a new guy.       If Cam was the 1, he would look for a rocket arm.  But Bryce is the 1. Look for limited in the same way.  Low velocity, plenty of air under it, feels just like home when Picket comes in. And you have the guys on the second team not having such a radical adjustment (if they have to play) like with Dalton to Bryce.    Enter Grier. I guess we will collect those types.   
    • Best part is if we draft him, we can also use him as our fourth and one QB sneaker
