I honestly think Purdy is a pretty average game manager type but Darnold would be Darnold. He'd probably come in and look really promising at first and then as soon as the league started getting film on him in the system... here come the turnovers. It's been the story of his career.

I agree. I don't buy the Purdy hype but Sam Darnold is literally horrifying. One of the worst QB's this franchise has ever had.

He has elite talent but man, as soon as DCs get a bead on him in a system it's just game over. They've got him dialed now.

He must be the most predictable player ever on film because it's crazy how they can just flip the switch on him and make him look like a complete bum after he gets off to a hot start.

Yeah, he has elite talent but a one cent brain. The fact he is still in the NFL is really pretty amazing. Truly a special player when it comes to being horrible. Averages 1.5 TO's per game in his career.

I think it's because they know he can come in and give them a couple quality starts if need be while being a great guy in the locker room. That's honestly not a terrible thing for a backup. If he has to play long-term you're probably fuged but that's generally the case for backups, period. That's why they're backups.

I don't think he has ever won a game as a backup, has he?

Could be wrong about that.

      XL is a Lost Cause

      By Navy_football · Posted

      It appears that he sees things differently than the QB and OC, so Cam's advice is spot on. It isn't about number of targets, it's about quality of targets. Trust and being on the same page. BY doesn't know how to anticipate what XL is doing. And XL doesn't like where BY is placing passes. One on one film study would go a long way. More for BY than XL though. He has to adjust to XL. I really don't think XL can adjust on the fly.

      Should Dave Canalas be on the HOT seat??

      If the team shows improvement, then he shouldn't be in danger of losing his job - even if the record doesn't reflect. This was a very young team (with a lot of new vet starters) that overperformed last season. Somebody's doing something right. Consistency is key with so much youth. And we're potentially looking at new starters at ILB and FS. Those are positions that take time to fully understand the defense. ILB calls the front 7. Safety calls the back 4. Injuries at WR and IOL killed the offense last season. Depth needs to be upgraded. Same with Edge. I think they would have won more games if Pat Jones doesn't go down early. Be smart with the roster and draft. Trade players for assets when it's time to pay them more than they're worth - yes, that includes BY if he doesn't make a pretty big jump. That's one of the many reasons Tillis is as important as anyone to the future of this team.
