I don’t remember Cam having a worse game.

Delhomme yes 

Moore no

Clausen yes because he’s the worst QB of all time

Teddy yes out of sheer cowardice
 

I do agree though we need to see if he can respond. 

Teddy never had a game this bad, and he was having to chase points last season, because our defense was rebuilding and we couldn't stop the run or get off the field on 3rd downs. Sam's been gifted with leads and dominant defensive play and we're eeking out wins against bottom feeders and this Sunday that snake finally bit us. 

I saw Teddy go toe to toe with Mahomes and KC with a way less talented Panthers team. I see Sam needed this defense to play wall to wall for 4 quarters to even have a chance in these games.

Anderson is running lazy routes. 

Yep abd when he gets the chance, he drops the ball

signed the wrong player but hey, that Baylor connection 

there was not one slant or screen or misdirection of any type that I recalled seeing yesterday 

I do remember seeing one handoff to the left and Sam running to the right that Sam could have walked in for a TD if he had kept the ball.  That play  was never called again 

then  again, I might have been ordering drinks at the bar

I’m on my phone but all you have to do is look at the game film to see all the open receivers today. Sorry your boy just can’t do it. 

You should also be able to see on your phone the beating Darnold took in the pocket as the line collapsed time and time again.

One game and everyone ready to send him to the guillotine. How about let’s see how the season goes before we pass judgement?

He needs to play like he knows how to be an NFL QB.

What I saw was as if one of US put on his Jersey, and went out there in his place.  

Also, Talk is cheap.    Sam puts the loss on him(and he should) but he needs to now go out there Next Sunday against the Vikings and put on a NOT-SUCKY performance (and help the team win the game) to begin to remove the stench of this game from our memories.

It's a MUST-WIN for him, imo.

'Cause if he doesn't play well, what else is going to say in the next Presser?   More of the same sh-t?

Sam needs to be bridge QB until they find ‘the one’ 

Fields could have been that guy. I'm interested to see how his career shakes out

He's a fourth year pro not a first year rookie this is who he has been the concern is valid.

Too bad he was in his 4th year and not a rookie or even a sophmore.....

I and a few other astute posters warned about all the users here talking about a franchise QB while he was beating up on bad teams, we were name called of course but Sam is what he has always been, a low to mid tier game manager at best, probably around the 25th or so best starting QB in the league, at best.  That's what he's being paid like so it makes sense.  but the O-line didn't throw at least 2 of those egregious picks yesterday, is not causing him to throw into too tight coverage, sail passes over wide open receivers' heads, miss easy open targets on his progression.

it's Y4, not Y1, this is who he is and always has been and always will be

All I want to find out by the end of the season is whether Sam has any future with this team or not.

At this point, it's looking kind of Iffy, to say the least.

I'm not a big Bridgewater fan. But, I do think he would have made some of the throws that Sam missed and he wouldn't have walked off the field with 3 INTs.

I actually would have been cool riding with Teddy for another year and using the 2022 draft to find our franchise QB. If he panned out, the new guy could've been handled the reigns midway thru the 2022 season or at the start of 2023. 

That said, I think it still too early to throw the towel in on Darnold. In our last 9 games we've only scored 17 points in the 3rd quarter. That problem began before Darnold joined the team. The Panther just seem to lose all of their offensive momentum when they come out of the locker room at halftime. That's not all on the QB. Yesterday's game is not included.

Behold the carnage:

Bridgewater wouldn't have thrown as many picks because he didn't have the balls to try risky throws.

Throwing two yard passes when you need six or seven yards may not turn the ball over, but it doesn't exactly win games either.
