Traditional and advanced stats all say this is a different Darnold, but he's still unable to lead the team to a win when it's all on his shoulders 

I am as big of a Darnold critic as they come but if you limit him and leave him in situations where he is more likely to  succeed this is the result. 

McAdoo is a wild idiot but he does deserve credit for working better with Darnold than probably any OC in his career.

Now, all that said.......Darnold has no future with a successful Carolina Panthers franchise.

I’m ready for new coach to make the decision. It could be Darnold but most likely a rookie gotta love those rookie QB contracts 

Maybe. We really aren't gonna have any idea until we know the HC and OC.

This might be one of the most interesting offseasons in franchise history.

He has had one good game, and lost in that one.   We can do better. 

ONE?

uhh... *looks at stats*

I don't think so.

Are you sure you're not looking at LAST YEARS Stats?


He'll make a very good backup somewhere but he played solid for all but ONE game (the Steelers...and even in that game, he still took care of the football)

Just give him a five year contract and let him compete because he's such a nice guy and he tries so hard. This is a family affair.

Do any of ya'll that don't keep Sam Darnold's codpiece on your nightstand remember just four years ago when turning the ball over and losing football games was a deal breaker for this fanbase?

I imagine it still is.

Last season was a pure dumpster fire in that regard. 

 

But that said, you have to admit that aside from the Bucs game (where 2 turnovers weren't exactly his fault), he's been pretty mindful of not turning the ball over.

 

Does that mean I want him to Start?   Not really. 

I still want Corral to get a shot.

But I wouldn't dismiss him as a Backup too quickly, either.

Sam has proven to easily be the best QB we’ve had since 2017 and I’d definitely keep him as a backup on backup money, even let him run the ship for 4-6 weeks if the rookie we get isn’t quite ready to start the season. But there should be NO allusions to him being a legit candidate for full time starter. He’s not anything more than a Delhomme-esque game manager and most likely will never be more. We need more.

I wonder when that will happen....

Darnold wishes he was Delhomme-esque.

He hasn't had a game winning drive since December 2019.

I think if Sam had Smitty, Moose and Double Trouble it might be a different story. I loved Jake but he was no star, he was a game manager same as Sam.

      That is probably a good point that I did not consider. It doesn’t force their hand financially, to declare early.

      Realistically he's probably not still going to be under contract when hes good to go again? Unfortunately for him you cant sign him for more than a small one year deal until he can prove hes still a good player... that might not happen.  I think hes played his last down as a panther.

      It has been going down that backyard ball road with the QBs a long time. It also has made it more difficult to evaluate OL for the pro game.    I agree though that the NIL is making it even worse. Then they get in the league and suck, coaches get fired. Here comes a new system every year for some of them, same as you are talking about in college.    Unfortunately, IMO, the league has responded by taking the path of least resistance offensively.    The only saving grace for the QB problem we identified here is the slotted salaries out of the draft. No more 100 million rookie deals. Which today would be 250 million and even more.  So to me, paying a player that doesn’t bring success in the first two or three years, you can’t do it. Better to take another shot in the draft or reclaim someone else's failure. Given that all staffs are not equal. Look what Shanahan did with Purdy for instance. And their getting off of Lance quickly.    In theory if Canales is a QB whisperer type, which we don’t know he isn’t at least to a higher degree than many (not including the established masters) we should be quicker on the trigger with these QBs. If Bryce doesn’t show out next year we really need to hit the reset.
