Darnold might be the next one out the door

That’s been said multiple times by people on different drafts and some drafts people says is the best of all time and they’ve been flops. 
 

if it’s me I’m running to the podium to draft the liberty qb or if a high quality qb in the mold of Stafford or RW becomes available I’m trading for him.

This coming draft does not look like a good one for quarterbacks.

I know. It is a bad time to need a qb but I suppose it's never a good time to need one.

Let's hope they have a plan B in mind if this experiment fails. Same goes for the oline.

I suspect the lack of available options going forward led in part to signing Sam's extension.  It gives them time to sort it out.

Seriously doubt it.

All indications are and have been that the team was happy with Darnold.

I'm sure they were. But if they were competent at all they don't count on that to be guaranteed.  It's a 50/50 shot at best. You don't hang your hat on that to work out in your favor no matter how confident you are. If you do, well good luck without a plan B.

I am sure there is a plan b.  I dont see it but I bet deep in their minds they have an idea of what may have to happen.  However I think the staff can probably trick themselves into thinking that his play is probably a by product of how crappy the line is blocking for him.  And they probably not wrong.

It is a huge part of the problem.  So much so that you can't determine for certainty what other issues they have.  It's FUBAR.  This is the first time I'm starting to question Rhule's judgment on his lineup choices.

Yall should expect Deshaun news whenever Sam plays poorly, it was a hot story this past summer. But also, Sam playing terrible yesterday and the O Line being bad are not mutually exclusive, you all know the scouting reports on everybody out there lol

Interior line is bad, Sam turns the ball over, both need to play better for us to win bc this roster is still young and green.

We would have to give up 3 firsts to get him.  There would be no way to improve this team by doing that and he is walking into the worst oline situation he has ever dealt with

I didn't say we should trade for Watson, I said it's gonna be news bc the Panthers were interested earlier this year. Sam needs to play better or they're gonna take the QB from Liberty .

Again, get used to the Panthers being in the news about Watson til he's actually traded somewhere.

And traits and arm talent QBs are all the rage now. Kyler, Josh Allen, Herbert, even Zach Wilson. If Trey Lance can inexplicably go 3 overall, Malik Willis is destined for QB1 in this upcoming draft and it makes sense if Sam relapses.

    • 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.
