We should "Brock Osweiler" Sam Darnold if he loses QB competition and Matt Corral looks just as good.

I hate that Sam is taking up a roster spot, but we're on the hook for a lot of money because of Fitt's idiotic blunder.

I can't envision Sam beating out Baker for the starting spot, but at the same time if he does then I think that's it for Rhule and Fitt. Too many mistakes for them too keep their jobs. They ran this ship straight into the rocks.

No more trading draft picks. Live with Sam on the roster knowing he’s gonna come in, put his head down and work without causing any issue in the locker room when he inevitably loses the starting qb spot. I know we’re eager to rid ourselves of the poo stain that is Darnold but unless a few significant qb injuries happen we should probably steel ourselves for the likelihood of him as the number 2. He might as well get used to it that’s where he’ll likely remain the rest of his NFL career. 

He strikes me as the type of guy that might actually want to be a backup QB. Money aside I think he'd be happy running scout team during the week and hanging out on the bench drinking gatorade during the games.

And there’s nothing wrong with that. Maybe he doesn’t love the pressure of being a starter…he’ll still make millions every year for at least a decade if not more. If I’m a backup qb and content to be one I’m making sure my agent calls all the teams with a good stable healthy starting qb so I can just run scout team all week and help the starting qb on game day.

Did Sam kick your dog or something?  Everyone wants him gone but it's becoming an obsession for some here. Not meant to single you out specifically. It's just that I don't remember a player being this hated around here.

He’s trash and he’s not our trash. We’ll tolerate our own trash for a while, but he came here being the worst starting qb in the NFL and he’s still that. We’re just ready to move on.

Percisely, I am most concerned about his stunting Corral's development by taking reps because "we have to keep Darnold sharp if something happens to Baker" bullshit I keep hearing. I don't want his smooth brain field processing to even get close to Corral.

Tepper gave Rhule 62mil over 7 years who then gave up 3 draft picks for Darnold and quickly picked up his fifth year option.  At some point we need to stop giving away draft picks and just wait out the dead wood like Darnold and Rhule.  Hopefully, they will both be gone after the season and the rebuilding process can start in earnest w/ dumb ass Tepper in charge of the new process.  Hopefully, he stays out of it.

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.

      How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
