Darnold is a bridge until Purdy fully recovers. Im not saying he will be the QB for the future just this year it will be his job and the 49ers will still be a top 3 team in the NFC with Darnold.

I can agree with all of this. It will be up to Lance to try to beat out Darnold now that he is healthy which may or may not happen,

Not true. Here is the quote:

Steve Wilks was our interim coach so we was not the coach for the whole year but rather part of the year. And I did not list Darnold stats for only one game. I listed several. Funny to see people polish Darnold's knob and crap all over Matt Corral. 

 

You posted an image with his stats but your comment only addressed one game, his worst. Why do that unless you have an agenda to push? Darnold wasn’t a bad QB last year.

Take away that last game and iirc Sam was damn near top 5-10 in the league QBR wise iirc...

He made some throws that made me smdh but he also threw some last season that made my jaw drop. 

Just that improvement showed me he can further develop (to a certain point). 

I will say, I would have been happy to have him as a backup under Reich. He's the perfect QB to come in for a 4-5 game stretch if need be (from wat I saw last season). 

I think he goes to San Fran and lights it up...atleast for a few games. Too many weapons to fail. Shanahan definitely has something in mind for Darnold. I wouldn't bet against it just yet.

Everyone thinks they can fix Darnold.  He does throw a nice ball, but unfortunately often to the other team or over the head of the receiver.  

This is like when some women fall in love with bad boys thinking they'll be the ones to reclaim them and make them husband material again.  Darnold is who he is.  He has limited processing ability (probably scored an 18 on the S2 test), no composure under pressure, can't throw receiver open to save his life.

It's hoping against hope.

The story has been written, but people still refuse to read it.

Golfing out here in the Bay Area with a buddy who is a big SF fan. Waiting at the first tee box the guys behind us saw his 49er golf bag and they started talking football. Dude was like even if Purdy can’t play we can win a championship with Sam Darnold. After a good 30 seconds of hearty laughter I told him exactly like Ethan Suplee did to the little kid in Mallrats, “you dumb bastard…”

I told him I’m a Carolina fan and good luck with all that.

Nope.

Modern women just want their significant-others to do as their told.

Darnold is the poster-boy for that.

I hated the Darnold trade, and still think we got fleeced by the Jets, but he seemed like a better player after coming back from injury and replacing baker, he played well enough to beat Tampa, but our lack of a competent DB proved to be our downfall , I honestly would have been fine with rolling with him if we didn't go all in on the draft this year

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.

      It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.
