Pull Darnold, he is done.

How is a 3rd for a young CB that can still develop worse than a 2nd, 4th, and 6th for a QB bust which also made up not pick up another QB this offseason?

Henderson is healthy, yet can't see the field, that makes it a waste of a draft pick.

Darnold was an attempt at a swing for the fences. The belief was that with a better supporting cast and coaching a young QB with NFL experience would be able to play batter. Sadly, that belief was misguided. Darnold just doesn't have it, nor was he given better coaching, game planning, or better Oline.

Both failures rest on Rhule and Tepper.

Henderson hasn’t been healthy. I’m sure he was held out like Elf was for lack of reps/conditioning. CJ cost less capital than Darnold and Darnold is one of the main reasons we are losing. I haven’t given up on Henderson yet and I have lost all faith in Darnold. I’m kind of intrigued about having both Henderson and Horn back and healthy next year. There is definitely potential there.

You pull him now you will be throwing in the towel for the season.  Rhule will have to admit this experiment of going all in on Sam with no backup option has failed miserably.  

His gamble failed badly and it cost the team the season.  That's not a good look.

IMO, NOT pulling him is throwing in the towel. We are running the most bland, vanilla offense imaginable just to try to avoid the QB turning the ball over and yet Darnold is still turning it over in droves.

Throw James Morgan out there and see if we have another Mike White(or whatever his name is).

Do that and at least it will show that Rhule and company are trying to fix things at QB.

'Cause right now, Sam sure ain't it and neither is PJ.

    • I mean, he's a professional athlete.  What you think as a fan vs what he should think as a player are completely different.  Being bad doesn't mean you should lack confidence in yourself, and really that is true in all forms of life.  Do everything you want to do with confidence. Justin Fields sucks, but does he ever play like someone who doesn't believe in his own abilities?   Obviously you need more than confidence to be a high-level NFL player, and Bryce will never be that.  But he could still create 2-3 extra plays a game if he allowed himself to play more "free" like he did in the second half of last season.  The fact he refuses to use his legs to pick up yards nowadays hurts this team.  Simple things like that would go a long way for us, even if not for him.
    • I've always thought it odd that the QB is the only guy in the roster who carries a record. If a RB puts up 1200 yards but the team sucks then everyone still says the RB had a good year. If a QB puts up good numbers put the D is atrocious and the win loss record isn't great due to that then the narrative is that the QB can't win. Now that we're finding a way to win with suddenly dominant D and dominate running game people are trying to shift to this "Bryce is just a winner" narrative while he puts up bottom of the league numbers while near the top of the league in turnovers. It's just funny to watch.
