Sam Darnold had the 13th worst QB win in NFL history if we measured passer rating

That is a very low bar, especially given that the NFL is now 17 games.

Sorry but that doesn't fly.

I was expecting way worse numbers and yet you put up numbers that are actually DECENT.

You're forgetting who we're talking about here and how bad he was in the past. 

He had his best season to date albeit if it was only 6 games.

Listen, if you consider this decent. Then you're reverting back to your old self I guess.

Sam had 22 yards and an INT going into the 4th lol

he finished with a solid 43 yards.    

only the DeAngleo Wildcat game did our starting QB produce less yards.   Even Jimmy Jam mustered more at his worst.

Sam Darnold is a massive bust.  That has gotten opportunity after opportunity.  Beyond what other busts get. What am I supposed to give him credit for?   

The current season is still underway.  Who will be a realistic option isn't known yet.  But again, Sam's resume doesn't fit the vet/mentor/coach QB role you would want to aid your young QBs.  He needs that type guy to still help him. 

 

First bolded. there are still plenty of bad QBs in the league. So...

 

Second bolded. Give him credit for having a pretty good year. For taking a team that was 1-5, and almost making the Playoffs. Busts don't do that.

 

Third bolded. What Playoff QB would you see us actually getting? That deflection allowed you to skip past having to answer the "Who should we bring in" question.

 

Fourth bolded. You have no idea what goes on behind those gates. It is just as easy to say Sam can be a mentor, as it is to say otherwise. Just because he has had a rough career, does not automatically eliminate him from being a mentor. 

 

In conclusion. Your hatred of Sam won't even allow you the possibility of thinking this year has shown that maybe, just maybe, there is more to Sam that meets your eye.

I'm not reverting back to anything.

Comparing those numbers you "extrapolated" to the sh*t seasons he's had in the past, there is an obvious difference there.

Wtf, man?

Do you not think it's a bit odd that you're hyper focusing on 6 games where the Panthers had historic rushing numbers against generally bad teams? Is it not fair to include his other four seasons, including his last season in Carolina? Why is it that we have to look at these 6 games ignoring his career?

Why is the bar so low for Sam Darnold? 🤔

It's low for Sam BECAUSE of those bad seasons.

It's low because this is the first time in FOREVER that there is sign of actual IMPROVEMENT from him which I didn't think he ever would improve at all (and that he is what he is).

    • I have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever
    • Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies     
    • You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.
