Early in the season he was moving around in the pocket pretty well, but pressure up the middle is making that very difficult. The OL isn't consistent and it just doesn't seem like we can put a quick passing game into practice at all. Between drops and bad qb play...

Timing is off on the throws and usually late. Sometimes Sam gets a guy killed, sometimes they get the ball out of step and drop it, sometimes it’s a lack of concentration by the receiver. It’s hard to evaluate when the quarterback play is so bad. No sense in criticizing the receivers until they have a NFL caliber player throwing them the ball.

I used to take my piss breaks during commercials...now I wait till the offense comes out.

Now when I take my piss breaks, I stay next to the toilet...just in case.

There's a difference between "less than perfect" and "holy poo this is really bad."

And you can still criticize how Sam has responded to pressure, Sure!

But lets not act like this o-line has been any good. at all.  Our that our outlet receivers have been good either. 

Sam sucks and the offensive line sucks and Joe Brady sucks. It’s a perfect storm of suck.

Before the game coach said they needed TB to throw it deep more.  Added that to do that they had to give him more protection.

Pretty much a given that QB's need protection to throw deep.

Knowing that, it is hard to understand the decisions made by Rhule during the off season when it comes to addressing our O line needs.

And we could've drafted MAC JONES.....EL OH EL

What? Jones is terrible. I mean, he's better than Darnold but I'm very glad we didn't draft Jones. He's the only reason we're in this game.

Rhule is clueless

You guys do realize just how bad PJ must have been in practice to not play?  Think about it.  What player has Rhule shown more loyalty, given more opportunities to?

Not long ago we used to say all we wanted the O to do was not turn the ball over... That's why PJ isn't playing

Then why tf is he here? This isn't scholarship football.

Navarro would have been such a big upgrade....he had some nice plans, and he's from the Carolinas too.

Sadly he wasn’t in the good old boy network like Tepper is. I’ve not cared for Tepper from day one and he has proven why.

I don't buy this. PJ is as much their handpicked QB as Darnold is.

PJ has been atrocious this year. Only reason he didn't start is whatever he showed in practice, IMO. If he was better he wins this job.

You're one for my favorite posters here, mav, but I have to disagree here.  Politics play a role in everything, even with all prior allegiances considered between the staff and their college connections, and they have money and picks invested in Darnold being THE GUY.  They have nothing of the sort invested in PJ.
