Darnold Props

Darnold is looking like an excellent backup / bridge.  He can't carry a team on his own, but that's fine.

As to AY/A, he's still only at 7.3 IAY/PA, which is not that high. However this means he is finding receivers in space so they can use their athleticism, which is definitely good.

He will be our starter next season no matter if he's good enough or not to do so. Seems pretty obvious. Corral won't beat him out, we're not drafting anyone who can start day one, and we've wasted too much money/picks bringing in FAs recently.

Depends on what kind of money Sam is wanting, who we draft, and who our OC is.  If Sam wants too much money it's no deal.  His contract should reflect that of a backup QB.  If we draft a QB in the first and are running this power running offense, there is no reason not to go ahead and let the rookie go out there hand the ball off and attempt some passes each quarter.

We have Corral. We don't need to draft a rookie to do that.

Corral should be in the mix, but I wouldn’t let a 3rd round rookie from a previous coach that has been on IR have much weight on any QB decision. He is a nice luxury to have and if he can develop then it’s a great bonus.

If the right rookie is there, we will. We don't need a rookie to hand it off but we need them to develop to one day lead this team.

A power running offense is a nice way to get a rookie comfortable on this level. The hope is they will develop into something special. Imagine AR mixed in with our running offense for example. It’s not a long term plan for him, but a good way to a young rookie on the field early. It’s kind of how the Niners are playing Purdy.

I went back and watched the DET game again. Sam missed on a few throws, but most everything he threw was a dime on Sunday. It is almost like aliens abducted him and turned him into a good QB. I guess strong OL play and a running game can do that for a QB. Not sure he can take the next step and make it happen when the opponent KNOWS he has to throw. I imagine we will get a chance to see that at some point in the next 2 games.

I want a power running offense no matter what QB we have.

Even if we got Mahomes next year I want to run it down people's throats.

I started watching football when Riggins was running over everyone with

the R******s (remember them) .

That's football to me .

    • Idk man, I think it’s necessary.  There’s people working 9-5s everyday that get told poo about what they aren’t and what they’re not capable of and they’re working for scraps.  These guys are making millions.  People are watching and invested because their team and fandom is a part of their identity and a big source of pride.  When someone like Bryce comes in and is given chance after chance after chance after proving he is not worthy of the position he’s being gifted, and he continues to be the biggest reason above any that we are losing, yeah…  I think it’s fair to call a spade a spade.  Am I saying Bryce the person is trash?  Bryce the person is a piece of poo?  Absolutely not.     I came up in an era, especially in basketball, where if you were fuging up people heckled the poo out of you.  I played in rec leagues as a teen where the fuging parents were calling kids trash and yelling poo like “TURNOVER!!!  TURNOVER!!!”  “CANT DRIBBLE!”  “CANT SHOOT!”  And that’s adults screaming that poo to kids like we were in the fuging Rucker lol.🤣🤣🤣  I went on to play basketball at a collegiate level and with professional players in different settings.  What those experiences as a kid taught me was to see if there is any merit to what people are saying, and if there is, then work my ass off til they can’t say that anymore.  Come back better, tougher, harder.  And I did.  If kids can figure that poo out, an adult calling another adult who is bad at his job while making millions and millions of dollars will be just fine.  
    • I have tried to like this team, lord knows I have tried. BY9 is a nice young man, if I had a daughter he can take her to prom, but he ain't QB1 and he's not Cam or Delhomme Chuba is a average RB, he isn't Stephen Davis, he isn't J-Stew McMillan has the makings of a good WR, but he isn't 89/Moose D. Brown is a great player, but if the game was on the line I want Kris Jenkins       I miss this brand of football, even in the bad Jake games the games were entertaining It has been nearly 8 years now of watching numb football
    • I'm not so sure. Something about the whole Frank/Bryce situation seemed off from day 1. Bryce didn't fit Frank's QB mold as well as Stroud, then he basically gives up when Bryce is named starter in preseason but gets virtually no reps in games. Then he looks completely unprepared and Dalton steps in in Seattle, has a decent game under immense pressure, and it's right back to Bryce. All his mechanics are terrible and he's having the worst rookie season ever and Frank doesn't bench him?  You dont have to be a conspiracy theorist to know Bryce wasn't ready to be a day 1 starter. Everything with Bryce, then coaches, and the FO seemed forced.
