Yes he was, he was playing mistake free ball and that's honestly the best of his caeer. 

He finished the season 5 of 15 for 43 yards with 2 INTs. 

that's Sam Darnold after a couple weeks of film.  It always ends the same. 

remember, there were folks claiming Sam was in the MVP race after the first several games with Rhule.  Sam is always Sam.  And all NFL teams need is a handful of weeks to figure out how a team is trying to hide his flaws before they feast on Sam.

I see what you're saying, but that wasn't as bad as rejecting the trade for multiple firsts. 

It's part of the deal. There were 2 trade offers with Burns as the target. One with the Rams and one as part of the trade with the Bears. Fitterer declined both.

Ship him to the Lions for Jameson Williams and a 1st 

That would be my top trade preference as well, the problem with it is that the Lions are going to have to give Hutch a huge contract next offseason, doubt they want to give up on Williams this quickly, while also giving up another 1st, to then turn around and have 2 of the top 5 paid pass rushers in the league. 

If they didn't have Hutch, I think that's a trade that makes sense for both sides and might have happened, but Hutch and the way he's been playing screws it all up for us.

I wouldn't be shocked to see Burns traded.  They couldn't agree on a deal.  Now it's evident we are going to suck for some time.  I think they slowly start to shift the language to full rebuild.   Which is what we were setup to be doing.   This braintrust  just couldn't tell the difference between up and down. 

but it's Fitt.  Mr. In On Every Deal that is bad for Carolina.   So it will be a bad one.  Probably trades Burns for Chosen Anderson and gives them a 4th on top of it.

CMC is looking like a bigger trade blunder, as he would make a massive difference to our offense right now

We had CMC for 5 seasons and made one playoff game (and lost). We all love CMC but he went to an elite team with an elite HC and an elite defense (the past 4 years they have been to a Super Bowl and 3 NFC Championships) and now gets to showcase what he can do. He would have just been another unhappy Barry Sanders. Great player on a poo team.  We did him a solid and got a good return. Now what we did with the return is questionable.

We did poo with what we got for him. Jags and a project player.

    • I have been looking for a dropped pass list and all that comes up is QBs. And team stats. When I do receivers I get the passing stats for a handful that threw passes this year.    I wanted to be accurate but anyhow I was looking because thought I remembered reading where T Mac had more drops than XL this year.  One of you many smarter than me people here,I would appreciate it if you know how to pull that up, please do. Thank you.    And yeah I know that isn’t all there is to it I just thought it was interesting.  Of course what the hell is a drop lol.   
    • I agree with this and I think it's worth mentioning too that Bryce is not consistent on his placement and especially velocity and that in large part is driven by his footwork. We all know XL doesn't have the best hands and I don't know that he can overcome that. Cam always had the heater that just hit your hands and sank into your grip, where Bryce has some that are harder thrown, some soft. Bryce stepping into a pass looks so much different than that hop throw thing he does. I think XL really needs to hit the jugs machine and start learning how to catch all these different touch passes. TMac and Coker don't have these issues. If XL doesn't get some work in he's going to be out of the league in the next couple of years. 
    • I think most people like XL from a personal standpoint. I don't think he's stupid either. Although if we are being realistic he is lacking in football IQ at this point in time and it cannot be disputed that he has not taken working on his craft seriously at all times given the body of work on the field. It speaks for itself. I myself have defended him at times given the circumstances of our QB room. But he is now in his third year and 25 years old. We are not in a position as a franchise to go around babying anyone especially first round draft picks. He needs to take his position and his football career seriously or he is going to end up selling used cars somewhere. I hope he realizes this and takes an extended break from social media because that mess certainly isn't going to increase his net worth if he ends up out of the league. And these hanger on types will disappear quick too once that money dries up and it surely will eventually. We'll see how he responds.
