Darnold Time

Recommended Posts

If someone told you at the start of last season Darnold would be our starting QB come December 2022, you'd probably think, "well hey, sounds like he just needed a new team" and not this lol

The sequence has, no joke, been:

Darnold to PJ to Cam 2.0 to PJ again, Cam again, Baker Mayfield, oh, and then PJ again, and then Baker again, and then..back to Darnold.  I'm dizzy.

I honestly think he’ll do ok. Broncos have a solid defense but our OL is infinitely better than when Darnold was starting last year and Darnold’s problem is getting skittish under pressure. When he has time he’s a decent QB

It's actually the opposite. Sam was one of the worst QBs in the league when he was not under pressure. He just happened to be even worse when he was under pressure.

Because the Jets gave up on him for Zach Wilson, who is actually worse. It's just interesting timing for Wilson to probably get benched and for Sam to come off the bench, media will probably make note of it, ask about it

The Jets are hosting Fields this weekend

No one gives a f*ck about Sam

Because the Jets are back where they were when he was there... They traded him and drafted another QB who is arguably playing worse than Darnold did when he was there.

Lol still not sure how that motivates him to play better though.  Darnold got benched here for a broken Cam Newton, couldn't beat out trash Baker Mayfield, and will probably get benched again for PJ Walker.  

Hell if anything Darnold got even worse leaving the Jets.  So really he has no reason to be paying attention to Wilson/Jets.  And I doubt he is anyway, it has no relevance to him.

Panthers since 2018...

Cam Newton -> Kyle Allen -> Taylor Heinicke -> Cam Newton -> Kyle Allen -> Will Grier -> Teddy Bridgewater -> PJ Walker -> Teddy Bridgewater -> Sam Darnold -> PJ Walker -> Cam Newton -> Sam Darnold -> Baker Mayfield -> PJ Walker -> Baker Mayfield -> Sam Darnold 

Darnold has taken over the starting job 3 times in 2 seasons.

WE SUCK

I would’ve been curious to see Sam behind a competent OL but Sam seemed to be worse last season whenever he had more time 

More time equals more time to think which for Sam does not lead to good things 

You may have hit on something. It would be great to see the Panthers have a hurry up type game plan installed for him Sunday.

Darnold was one of the worst QBs when NOT under pressure last year. 
O-line will do nothing. Darnold will be Darnold. I guarantee he will throw a few picks.

    • Nope Still missing it. Let's try this a different way... You have two quarterbacks from schools that ran the same kind of offense - maybe even two from the same school - on a given team (not necessarily the Panthers). One is designated the starter while the other is named the backup. Why?
    • yeah, pretty sure boss.....when things match and fit in the NFL.....the results then show it.  and when they don't, well, the results show that as well.  Bryce doesn't fit.   *but I get why late season and wants to argue with everyone Mr. Scot has also turned into a please don't talk to me about stats guy as well.  Given, the stats that reflect offensive productivity work against all your present arguments. 
    • Yeeeah...stats and rankings have zero to do with a discussion of scheme and skill set match. Maybe look up definitions of style vs ability and see if that helps. At this point, you've basically had three different people explain to you where you're wrong, but rather than addressing any of those statements, you're just resorting to straight deflection.  You don't get it. Either that or you're acting like you don't get it so that you can avoid the discussion because it's not going well for you. (that wouldn't surprise me either) 😄 Sme result either way, I suppose.
