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.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
