He could still be the starter to open up next season if Cam doesn't finish up strong this year. Or if we draft a rookie QB and they get hurt then Darnold will most likely be next man up. 

Not a chance in hell that Darnold is on this team next year or takes another snap in a panthers uniform.

He's guaranteed 18M next season and seems like a good guy in the locker room. He's a terrible starter but I don't see what would be wrong with having him as a back up. Especially when he is getting that money either way.

I doubt it's a popular opinion, but I'd like to see Sam spend a year or two on the bench in the backup role while Cam uses up what he's got left in the tank, then start around 2024.

I think we are seeing Cams tank is pretty much on empty.  😳

Watching the game today made me think it isn't Teddy, Sam, Cam or PJs fault. Has it ever occurred to anyone that Sam Darnold is missing Adam Gase about now?

Yeah exactly. We bought Sam in here with the attitude that Rhule is just a quarterback aficionado and if he can't fix him then he's damaged goods. So far Rhule hasn't fixed anything. Maybe Sam isn't fixable but if he is maybe Rhule can't do it any better than Gase.

I think what we saw today showed what many have been saying all along in that it’s impossible for a QB to achieve sustained success with this team as someone will always drop the ball. Maybe we will be a little more objective after today. But knowing this place, probably not.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
