For those wanting Darnold...

I just don't get with a vastly improved Online people wouldn't want to see Darnold after the last 4 weeks. Baker is severely limited physically and is missing wide open players. 

 

Having PJ or Sam immediately gets 5-7 plays extra on offence from tipped passes alone. That's with a clean pocket. I counted 3 passes today where he just overthrew or threw behind open receivers. He's too slow to get a first down with his feet and doesn't do anything better than average except for his "competitiveness". He's literally a walk-on athlete because of his physical limitations. 

Panthers never should have traded for him. Keep our draft capital and salvage that 4th. Play anyone other than Baker. 

A better O-line won't make Darnold a better QB. I wish the myth would die.

IMO the issue is not just the QB. The scheme sucks. Everyone said its really complicated but it seems simple based on what we see on the field. Maybe the specifics are really hard like a QB sneak isn't a push forward into a gap, but its falling down and trying to army crawl under the center..and the terminology and options are difficult maybe...the same QB sneak is referred to as a "29-K-Supercalifragilicious-9100DU-I-Snap-Tap=Snapper-Boom-Bomb 1960ish-5" with checks to a throw at a DL's elbow to avoid intentional grounding or a pass to anyone to drop to also avoid intentional grounding?

    • I noticed Canales commented on King having a live arm. Weinke coached him and said he could make any throw an NFL team would ask him to make.  His mechanics and general process of throwing looks a little wonky to me though. Haven’t really zoomed in on that though to say more.     Brazzell, his hands look at least decent to me and of course his speed is there.   Love his balance.  Like a cat, always comes down on his feet. Not his butt.  
    • If Veabel is the father the name, unfortunately…. well you are looking at Mike Jr.    I feel bad for the husband And the kid though. Especially the kid who had no hand in anything and is just a victim.   Most people would develop some pretty big issues around the chaos of finding out nothing you were told about your father was true and you have been calling the wrong guy Dad.  And trusting your mother, well that is over too.     She should be permanently burned as a reporter or rumor reporter. Whatever she I was.    Who can trust anything she says?   Vrabel has outed himself as a total phony. No credibility whatsoever.    
    • My worry is about his concussion. Concussions.  Last thing we need is for him to  be like Jewel. I am looking forward to him benefiting from better players around him in the defense.  Defending QBs under a little more pressure than the last few years.  Better coverage defense in front of him in the middle.
