Normally I'd say about 0 but Sam is terrible and Fitts has previous experience with his team throwing a 3rd round rookie right to the wolves so I'm saying 50% (voted 50-75). Also, less risk starting a rookie QB if we have a dominant OL and some solid weapons, which it's looking like we will. Dak is another example.

 

Won't really know anything until camp though, he could look horrible and not ready at all once the pads come on. Who knows.

Ok, so Fhule should decide. We got Icky but we didn't even really get to see what Brady Christensen had to offer until way late and Rhule admittedly said that may have a mistake.

Trusting Rhule to evaluate QB readiness is lol. Remember he kept Sam from playing in the preseason, coddling the dude. The NFL has long figured Sam out and will put him in situations they know he can't handle.

Time to move on from past mistakes and embrace the future by commiting to your new franchise QB. THAT will show Corral that you are serious about reaching his potential.

All this coddling guys want to do thinking they're saving Matt from football is ridiculous. He'll learn more, get up to speed, getting reps not watching Sam.

Brees, Brady, Rodgers, Mahomes

It appears that the Panthers intend to run more this season. 

If true, that would bode well for Sam Darnold.  If Sam makes any progress with in-game decisions he could produce another mini win streak (like last season).  Matt Rhule and Scott Fitterer would likely favor this outcome, as it would provide an "We were right all along" narrative for their trade w/the Jets. 

With this in mind, chances are Rhule and company are going to give Sam Darnold every opportunity to succeed early this season. 

However, if Matt Corral is all that and a bag of chips (clearly heads and shoulders above Darnold) well, all bets are off. 

TL/DR:  Everybody loves a winner!

Don’t forget Marshall led or was right there with the leader in preseason receiving yardage and well, it didn’t translate well. 

Oddly, Sam Darnold also didn’t really play in the preseason 

Robbie Anderson earned 85% of offensive snaps in the regular season.  TMJ 36%

I don’t think issue was TMJ and his gait

Rule is unpredictable. There's no telling. I mean it doesn't really matter if Corral looks or is better, Rule is going to role with whoever he's comfortable with. 

Especially since he's been pretty much lost the majority of his control so far this offseason. His narcissism is like a ticking time bomb waiting for him to start micromanaging again.

Sam simply completing a pass would be considered "progress" at this point.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
