This has to be the most bizarre thread in the history of the huddle.  Some weird fuging takes going on here.  Are they really arguing that darnold is a top 15 qb?  What in the holy fug is wrong with you people and this is after a historically bad performance.  What the fug have you guys been watching the last few weeks? 

Seems we have some folks here who could use the kind of care only an inpatient psychiatric facility could provide.

No one thinks Darnold is a top 15 QB. Pointing out that his stats this season would have ended up around 15th in a lot of categories doesn't mean he's a consistent, top 15 guy. It means that his stats were 15th in those categories, which is ~average production. There's about 4 of you on this thread struggling with comprehension.

My final thoughts on Darnold (at least for today) because I'm tiring of the discussion:

  • Darnold is likely a long term #20-40 QB in the league 
  • Darnold, at 25 years old, isn't a finished product even after 5 accrued seasons
  • #25-40 QBs are worthy of a backup contract
  • I was impressed by his performance in 2022 compared to all of our expectations
  • I think it would be a good move to sign him ~2 years at 5mil per if he'd take it

I’ve only seen half the Saints game so far, but from the film, he’s running for his life the moment Brady Christensen gets hurt and is replaced by Michael Jordan. 
 

Tough to have a good day behind a line giving up interior pressure like that every play. 

At least MJ made up for it by recovering what could've been a crushing fumble and scored. 

But yeah....BC being hurt changed the whole complexion of the game.

Yeah he needs a solid pocket and a great rushing game (preferably franchise record day rushing) and his throws limited, plus DJ bailing him out a couple plays and he can be decent sometimes.

Any QB could use a solid pocket and great rushing game, though. 

I don't understand the point you're trying to make here.

Damn near ANY QB could look serviceable in those situations. The problem it when one of those things aren’t working it’s an absolute disaster. Any pressure and you don’t get get a couple bad throws, you get that lovely 2.6 passer rating and an awful offense where our backup guard was our only TD scorer.

If he'd have passed for 300 yards and won the game single-handedly there'd be a contingent saying Darnold alone cost us two spots in the draft.

If we'd have lost the game, they'd have said look at what a bum he is, turning out that kind of performance when he knew his career was on the line.

This has been a swamp-assed year of a football season and it has created the pissiest fan situation ever.

The Darnold fans in this thread make the average New York Jets fan look like they're Mensa members.

Giving credit to someone who deserves it is being an objective fan. Darnold is a short term solution at QB, I haven’t read a post that states otherwise. Denying the fact that he’s been a part of turning the season around is idiotic. I swear to God some of you guys spend way too much time talking about the same sh1t, it never stops. And I thought my wife bitched a lot…

Oh yeah you're definitely tired of the discussion right that's why you're up at 7 in the morning already pooing posts that aren't overwhelmingly positive towards your favorite NFL QB. Seek help ECHornet.

It's the same argument you'd see on this board in the 2010 offseason on why we didn't need to take a QB, we just needed to surround Jimmy Clausen with a better offensive line and weapons and he would develop into the QB that Mel Kiper told us he would be.

      I have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      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.
