Darnold Time

The problem isn't the QB. The problem in this offense is the offense, and the personnel. Our receivers suck, our tight ends suck. They rarely run their routes correctly and to completion. Baker had to check down all last Sunday because the receivers couldn't get to their spots to take the safeties out of the way of the intended route. 

It doesn't matter. No one is going to be throwing for 300 yards with regularity against any decent. 

The problem is absolutely the QB and the OC.  The talent isn't as much of an issue.  We aren't top half of the league for talent, but there is enough.  We had CMC the first part of the season and still struggled.  The fact that a XFL QB is able to move the offense when his accuracy isn't all scattered shows you we have enough pieces to move the ball on offense.  

Baker for example needs a running game, PA, and to be able to roll out.  The Ravens stopped our running game and kept him in the pocket.  That will do it every time for Baker.  However even when our running game IS working, McAdoo still can't use Baker correctly.

I'm not a fan of Baker Mayfield but I'm sure that Sam Darnold will have a better showing...

They should get that Kanye and Kid Cudi collab to perform at halftime.

This was funny

Just hit me that Sam will look oddly large behind center on Sunday. Gonna be weird having a plus 6 footer out there.

If Darnold, playing arguably the best pass defense in the NFL with less than one week of reps with the 1st team offense, has a great game, I'll be legit impressed. Do I think it'll happen? No. But if it somehow does, the man deserves some props.

Looks like Luke and Sam hang out in their free time. this was from the other night after Sam was announced the starter.

Great. If nothing else, it ensures we only send the Browns a 5th rounder for Mayfield.

I’d rather pick in the top two or three and give up a higher pick to the Browns. Baker has been bad. If Sam is decent we might win a couple more games.

Part of me honestly thinks Darnold isn't done here and will be our vet QB next year. 3rd string/backup, but still here.

We'll found out Sunday. Sounds like Baker is starting to speak in the past tense already from his locker room clips the other day

His only shot is if the same staff is retained.  I think it gets blown up after the season so he has little chance.

I think he is just itching to publicly bury the Panthers, and will blame the system for his failure 

And part of it will be sour grapes, but will have elements of truth
