Some folks on here need to eat some crow. They didn’t even want to see him play this year. As I stated, he’s not the second coming, but we don’t need him to be with this offensive line.

Since coming back:

60%+, 850 yards, 4 passing TDs, 2 rushing TDs, 0 turnovers

Highly respectable.  Would prefer him over most league backups. 

Extrapolating to an entire season where he doesn't have a single bad game.

3600 passing yards, 17 touchdowns, 8 rushing touchdowns, 4 fumbles.

So, basically Teddy Bridgewater at his peak.

Sam is elite. Well who can argue with this? What a relief it is to know he has fully arrived.

He's a better passer than a lot of guys that's for damn sure.

Are you arguing that he doesn't have an elite arm?

It does enough to help, but it aint gonna help that much if you really want to compete for a championship. Qb has to elevate play at some point.

A) This team can't compete for a championship

2) Sam does what McAdoo tells him to do

D) When the Lions let you run for THAT much, you don't need to elevate anything

You’re making an ass of yourself…

It's best to take Frank in small doses. We all know why he doesn't like Sam.

Are you even reading your own posts? When we traded for him the first way I was able to cope with such a baffling move was to recognize his arm talent. Unfortunately I watched the game film of him when the chips were down and he had to score points from behind. He did nothing to change that in 2021. That's the question mark. Nothing in that regard has been answered. Even Baker Mayfield had a what some called miraculous game winning drive with the Rams barely a week after signing with them and then the next game he went right back to looking like he did here ie 🗑. It's called sample size. If folks like yourself haven't learned after Kyle Allen and the 3-0 start last season you never will.

BPA in he draft, even trade down.

Sign Sam to 3 yr extension.

Playing as good as any of the questionable rookies we would get in the 1at round.

Pick up somebody in the 3rd to play behind him.

As long as the OLine plays well, Sam is as good as anyone.

Nicley done. Out of curiosity what is his yards per completion in that ?

Probably much higher than Bridgewater's, but why wouldn't it be when he has an entire week to throw?

[BrisbanePanther]

He had a good game today, and having the Lions D from earlier this season show up helped.

 

Still not the answer for tomorrow.

I don’t believe bridgewater has ever played behind a shitty online in his entire career… I guess this year with Miami. So why are his YPC numbers not higher?

You can't have both, 300+ rushing yds and 400+ passing.

A balanced attack is the best route.

I mean. You can't normally have 300+ rushing yards period, end of story. The mediocre Steelers from last week kind of prove that point.
