I saw Marshall open, just like last week in Dallas. Anderson need to be benched for a game, and move Marshall to his spot and activate Shi Smith in the slot.

I can get behind this. Shop Robby for a lineman. Or a groundskeeper. Someone who can identify bears and cats at least.

Darnold was lucky to play for a big program in college. He’s been below mediocre to me since college. Saying one bad game is an excuse to an entire career of subpar games. 
 

He’s not the answer. Some people need to see it now rather than later bc we’re going to ruin the prime of a lot of actually good players.

This is, without a doubt, the most correct thing said on this board all day.

As you are well aware, I was heavily anti-Darnold prior to the season but I just don't see how we could ever hope for him to be successful like this.

It would be different if he were failing completely on his own accord but that isn't the case at all.

It’s tough. He had an absolutely terrible game and you are right about every concern….but the line was as bad as I have seen it in a long time, and it’s been horrific all year. 

The Oline sucks for sure and Sam is just a average Qb in my eyes. That combo equals failure. Sure he would be better with a decent Oline, how much better? We will never know this season.

There isn't a QB in the league that could have worked behind that line with those play calls today. We had one receiving threat and a bunch of bad choices out there.

We had designed plays where our great hope was freaking Ian Thomas. Ian "Catch three balls a year and two are my own" Thomas. 

They blanketed DJ and put a waterboy on Robby. Terrace Marshall, Jr. stood around looking tall most of the day.

 

Yes there is. What a ridiculous statement. A lot of QB’s would have performed well enough to win. Sam had multiple open receivers including Robbie but he just can’t hit them in stride. Or he overlooks them and throws into double coverage instead. Sam has all the ability but doesn’t have the brain or eyes unfortunately

    • I don't necessarily think he will be moved, I would currently be leaning against that notion. I think a lot will depend on the coaching situation. Carroll certainly can't be thinking about wanting to go through a serious strip down and overhaul, so the longer he plans to remain, the less likely I think Crosby gets moved.
    • I think everyone says Mike Evans because of size, but really they have different strengths and play styles.  Tmac is better on intermediate routes and not nearly as good at contested catches. 
    • At this point, it is criminal to go into the 2026 training camp/OTA's with XL penciled in as a #2 WR. The team must upgrade, either through free agency or the draft. If he cannot give 100% effort on significantly less snaps as a #4-6 WR(players like Tremayne have done that consistently) then I don't think you have a player worth rostering beyond the trade deadline. Offensively, we eventually have to upgrade to an NFL starting caliber C. It's been almost the length of time from Gross to Ikey since Kalil retired and we have below average to terrible C play. Love Mays as a BC-esque utility backup but he will never be an above average long term starting C.  The TE room is one of the worst in the NFL but it's a low usage position in this offense, so the investments are likely to be small, if any. I would never expect to see an elite TE in a Dave Canales offense. 100% agree on OL depth. We actually aren't bad there but BC will be gone, Mays is a UFA, Corbett is a UFA and Zavala has been both injured and bad. We have to bolster that depth again or resign guys like Mays and Corbett to keep that depth somewhat stable.
