Darnold might be the next one out the door

[LegioX]

I’m gonna give Darnold some more games before I pass judgement. He had a bad game, all QBs have bad games. It’s how you bounce back from it and not make it a regular occurrence that defines you.

this was a bounce back game

If we are going to have a poo line we need a mobile QB…bring in Russell Wilson 

[Proudiddy]

I'm not saying we won't make a move for Watson at some point, but LaCanfora's posts now reek of the football equivalent to the National Enquirer.

Sam has 5 Rushing TDs. 

He's mobile enough.

His problem is removing his head out of his ass and making better decisions at throwing the football.

If anything we should be calling more runs with him. RPO and just option runs. They had a lot of 4 man fronts yesterday can just read the DE and get some outside yards.

Until this OL is fixed, rather patched up, Sam ain't doing nothing.  He makes poor reads and poor decisions under duress.  If he looks that bad from a clean pocket, then we will talk, but the man was running for his life yesterday.

With a completely reshuffled offensive line, lol. 

[Zod]

Its possible, sure. But he has had one bad game. A really really bad game. 

Going to take a few more of those for him to be on the hot seat.

This. The trend has been downward but we'll see. He's a couple more stinkers at least from this becoming a legit possibility. I just wish we'd made the move for Minshew to have another card to play if the downward spiral continues. I don't think anyone except for that one guy who keeps getting banned thinks that PJ Walker is the potential answer.

He didn't fall apart with CMC so that is the positive trend there. When the coaches watch film they clearly see the OL so whether we like it or not that will take precedence over QB play as anything on the offense starts with the OL and in pressers Rhule has countered any remotely negative thing about Darnold by saying "we have to protect him".

They also know he was their 3rd choice so that is something else for the back of the mind.

What makes you think the NFL would have stepped in when they haven't yet?

Because Houston is doing their job for them. He’s not playing.

Well CMC is now going to be back so that can only help Sam "Not Suck" next weekend.  

But man...As CMC goes, so goes this team.

Just get a 2nd for him in the offseason and call it a rental. The staff is locked in with him the rest of the year.
