I literally cannot wrap my head around picking up the 5th year. It was a bad idea then and it's looks even worse in hindsight. 

...His problem is not physical...its between the ears... he doesnt process information critical to the situation...

Agreed. He just doesn't have the decision making ability to be a good NFL QB.

...and i don't absolve Brady either.... pass plays should be quick hits... ball out of his hands in 2 seconds our less....   slants...rollout...zone sit...10-15 yards max... but Darnold seems to ignore the easy wide open shots for 4 5 yards...he just doesnt see it or is ignoring it.

Brady has his own issues to be sure but I do think the bulk of our problems offensively have been execution. Darnold is missing throws or making poor decisions, the receivers and RB's are dropping passes, the OL is well......a fuging disaster. So, I do think Brady is getting some unfair blame at times for the offense just executing poorly. 

It would be nice to see how he fared with a good QB and an adequate OL. I'm not sure we will get the chance to see that, however.

You get ur option of Fitz, Foles, Trubisky, or start a rookie that you draft instead of taking the best O-lineman to once again play behind a horrible line. These coaches are fuged if Sam doesn't work out

We should of signed Trubisky and drafted Fields. We would be in such a better place going forward.

If we went with a vet, I either wanted to trade for Minshew or sign Trubisky. I thought either would've been a better option and they would've been much cheaper. And yes, I would've drafted Fields. We'll see how he ends up turning out.

Totally forgot in hindsight Trubisky was available last year for a cheap prove it deal. Probably would have taken it even if we kept Teddy. Broncos actually did it right and had a competition for better or worse

    • You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.
    • Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
    • Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was.
