At what point do they just have to bench Darnold?

Lol Fields ain’t helping us win anything this year and it’s still up in the air how good he’s going to be.

He is playing better than Darnold with a shitty line also.  The difference is Fields (in theory) should be much better as the season gets better and the game slows down for him.

Lets be clear, Fields is playing as bad and Mac Jones is a 4th round pick at best.

The team clearly wanted Watson and then Stafford, and both ended up unavailable. I mean we had a trade lined up for Stafford and he turned us down.

I imagine will we give up a lot for Watson or Russell Wilson next offseason, the team is really just a franchise QB and a few lineman away from Superbowl contender. Any functioning QB would thrive with these weapons and defense.

At what point do our receivers start catching the ball? How many drops have we had? Also, when do we get rid of Joe Brady? He abandons the run any chance he gets and loves those long drawn out pass plays no matter the situation. Darnold isn't great, but he isn't terrible either. Minus that one int, he has been alright. If Robby caught some of the balls his way, this game might be trending in a different direction.

      Gotta wonder if Smitty's brain has turned to mush with how hard he played in the NFL

      Forget trying to draft a QB in the early first round--it's stupid

      By MHS831 · Posted

      OK, fair enough--however, since my point was that drafting a QB in the top 10 is stupid, if you consider the players who were not drafted in the top 10 or those who WERE drafted in the top 10 and did not secure starting positions with the team that drafted them, you should see the point.  Is it smart to draft a QB in the top 10 when only 4 are still starting for the team that drafted them.  Next, consider that half of that number, 2, were drafted outside the first round.  Next, there are 4 (Goff, Mayfield, Jones, and Darnold) who are starting on other teams after busting.   That number could increase as Arizona seems ready to move on from Murray, Miami is not sold on Tua, and jacksonville is still waiting for Trevor to start looking elite.  Bryce?   So to answer your question, there are MANY more QBs in the NFL who have busted and become starters on other rosters, were drafted after day 1, or are still on the cusp than the four who have become elite.  I thought that point was made.
