Relax dude.  We know it was a bad pick.  He went for the longer throw. The Thomas throw would have been a five yard toss to slow unreliable receiver with no YAC to speak of, with 70 yards to go ftw in 2 minutes.   BTW  its 1st and 20 and a quite likely incomplete to Thomas would have made it 2nd and 20.   Had he threaded the needle we wouldn't be talking about it, but he didn't, so we get to see you post pictures of it over and over in frustration.    Sam had his first bad game under multi year record setting pressure.   

Lets see how he responds.

BTW I've watched how jets fans respond to Zach Wilsons progress.  They turned on him quick too even though he had been sacked 15 times in 3 games.  smh 

Actually, Chuba was also open but if he threw to him, it would've been 5 yards he would've gained and then tackled.   Whereas with even as slow and unreliable as Ian is, at the very least Ian catches the ball and gets most of the yardage (lost via penalty) back to where the team is in 2nd and manageable with the 2 minute warning(and all 3 timeouts).  

And I don't get why you're assuming what would happen had he thrown to Thomas(incomplete pass? To a wide-open receiver?)...But I still would say it would've been the wiser move than forcing it into triple coverage.

That's easy to say when you've had a few days to review the tape.  Try to do that in less than 3 seconds behind that oline in the heat of battle.

Even if he throws to Thomas who does not get out of bounds he gets minimum 5-10 yards and the Panthers had three timeouts. It was not a do or die situation for Sam to throw a laser into triple coverage. He barely even blinked and the game was over. Either the pass rush got to him or he's not made the strides we thought he did but it is one of the worst decisions I have seen a qb for the Panthers make and I've watched Jimmy Clausen and Kyle Allen play quarterback.

Double move would have been a TD.  There was no safety help.  Brady sucks.  

But in one breathe we talk about how the OL is absolutely horrific and note the the fact saw pressure on an absurd number of snaps….no protection to hardly pull anything off. 

and then in the next day Joe Brady should be running double moves? That means the QB needs even more time.   

We have an OL issue.   You can scheme around an OL sucking only so much.   Too much talent on the other side in the NFL.

That's also true.   None of us have played QB in the NFL so we don't know what he's facing at ground level.  I'm just saying what i see from the tape.    For all we know, an attempted pass could've been tipped and Intercepted or a fumble would've occurred...

I know that.  I've already stated that we had not only 3 timeouts but the 2 minute warning.    It was a bad decision on Sam's part.   It's like he made up his mind to throw to Robbie NO. MATTER. WHAT.    sigh....

I said it during the Dallas game that it seems like Sam is being pressured to get Robby more involved. Its not good.

Idk man, it's like Brady is using the games as an ongoing experiment to try specific things out in.  I don't get it.

I kind of see that, he’s either trying to figure it out or trying to set it up.. you have to change gears both during a game & during the season but the setup is essential…

 

I remember Houshmanzadah a few years back in a SEA/MIA game. TJ had the walkoff TD, then talked about setting the db up all game, ran the route & turned inside all game. Game on the line, ran the route & turned outside for teh score…

 

while I don’t know exactly what Brady’s doing, setting it up or working it out, I just don’t get why doesn’t it change when the game is in the line? Why don’t we have some staple plays that work for other teams, that have worked for years? I’ve seen Sam bootleg successfully, screens & play action work too. Hell, Smitty’s smoke route was a regular occurrence way back, DJ should kill it nowadays… seems like there a lot that could be done but isn’t, lot more of they playbook could be opened up but isn’t…

That’s a lot of words to say I agree with you…

Rather than arguing on who Darnold should have thrown to (not the other team), why don't we ask if the problem is Robby's lack of position versatility?  I mean, think how much more flexible we'd be if he could play guard. 

Maybe we should start a positionless offense.  I mean, it can't be worse than our current offensive line, can it?

 

 

 

 

 

Yes I've lost my mind.  I've been reading too many threads on here lately.

      Remaining Schedule

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      So we have a pretty tough schedule for the remainder of the season.  I believe I saw where it's the toughest remaining schedule in the league.  To even think about the playoffs we IMO have to, at minimum, win three of the remaining six.  49ers - We will have to play an amazing game to win this one.  We are down to backups at LB (at least for now) and Kittle is probably going to have a big day.  CMC must not go off on us.  PFF had a pregame analysis and actually the two guys running the show were split on who wins.  They even said it was disrespectful to the Panthers to be 7pt underdog.  Evero is going to have to have a great gameplan.   I'm on the fence but this game is in SF and I think we lose. Rams - We're at home that is about the only advantage I see in this game.  LA is one of the best offenses in the league and I just don't think we have the firepower to beat them.  The only way we win is if we can control the clock and keep LA's offense off the field. Saints - We have to go into this game on a mission.  WE HAVE TO WIN THIS GAME.  Hopefully, Canales has a better gameplan and we win.  This is a very winnable game. TB x 2 - The only chance, IMO, of winning the NFCS is we have to win both games.  Many talking heads say TB is faltering some and can be had.  By week 15 and 17 we should be hitting on all cylinders.  If we win, it's going to have to be a pretty mistake free. Seahawks - they have a very tough defense, and I think we get shut down.  Our only hope is to pressure Darnold into mistakes like he did this past weekend with 4 INTs.  As with the Rams we are going to have to keep this a low scoring game. My hope is  49ers- Win Rams - Loss Saints - Win Bucs@Home - Win Seattle - Loss Bucs@TB - Loss 9-8 Record My Fear 49ers-Loss Rams-Loss Saints-Win Bucs@home - Loss Seahawks - Loss Bucs@TB - Loss 7-10 record

      With Motons deal (stupid), Hunt, Lewis and Mayes and Icky upcoming our line is going to be the most expensive again in the nfl.   Its going to be an interesting snap shot if this type of team building works.

      Hubbard says he might have rushed back

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      We have an easy out after this season with marginal dead cap. Could be smart given the situation and RB landscape.  This part isn’t at you—but in general: None of these guys are world beaters — sure they have been great for us at times but I just hope we don’t get this emotional investment paired with financials. I don’t think we need to teget all antsy about keeping Dowdle when he’ll be 28 next year. I don’t mind just continuously taking a stab in the late rounds every year on one.  We should not be investing in one guy in particular when they’re not really a game breaker. See: Sanders, Hubbard, etc.  I’d say heck yes, take a shot at a guy high up if you’re convinced you’ve landed a Gibbs or Taylor level, but otherwise, don’t invest, don’t get emotional about a 3-4 game stretch. Reset and see what type of committee you can construct with fresh legs.
