This team not going to rally around Sam Darnold.

"Went all in" LOL

They traded multiple picks for him, picked up his 5th year option, and didn’t draft or sign a single other QB. They didn’t give up the farm for him, but they sure didn’t give him any competition or bring in a backup plan. Pretty close to all in this season.

LOL indeed. He was out plan C when Stafford and Watson didn’t work out.

Didn't we call them to inquire about Sam sometime earlier before they decided on Wilson though and they wouldn't budge? Unless I'm misremembering.

You are correct. They called the Jets about Darnold early in the process and they said they hadn’t scouted the rookies they were interested in yet.

    • Any idea what happened to him at LSU? im reading that he was considered a 1st round pick in 2023, had an off 2024 season with only 4 sacks but was also on a horrible FSU team then went to LSU where he was supposed to be on an aggressive defense that should have given him a lot of sacks but he only ended up with one….   was he injured? Did the top SEC competition expose him? What happened? Cause this guy was considered a top prospect .  
    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.
