Mayfield and Darnold are playing great ball and have been consistently good all year. Bryce on the other hand didn’t really start putting it together until 7 games ago.

If you average out his stats over the past 7 games you’d have a QB that is on pace for 29 total TD’s over a 17 game season. That’s fringe top 10 QB play.

Who know’s if Bryce has completely turned the corner but he’s playing much better than his season stats suggest. 12 total TD’s to 4 total turnovers over the past 7 games isn’t bad. Just for comparisons sake, Jordan Love is at 11 total TD’s to 1 total turnover over his past 7 games. Pretty similar stats with the main difference being the Packers have a really good defense and head coach.

I don't think I'll ever get past all the finger sacks and tackles whenever a d-line guy can get a scratch at him. It's crazy we're basically 5 years into going full circle on Teddy B level as our QB lol. Speaking of it's looking like Sam, Baker, and Teddy now with the Lions as the new backup are going to be in the playoffs!!! Can't make this poo up.

Don't even try this revisionist history slop.

Sam Darnold showed more flashes than Baker Mayfield here but both were hot and cold at best and had some truly horrendous turnover filled games all circumstances aside. To act like it was only a few people who criticized them is ridiculous.

Furthermore you joined a whole 4 months ago. You and I both know you've been here before that so what was your last account so we can dig up your takes on Sam and Baker? Don't hide now you opened this can of worms.

Google makes things pretty easy to find. And I’m simply presenting what was said. If you have an issue with that, perhaps you shouldn’t have said it. 

For my opinion. I still don’t think Mayfield is that good — like many, he puts up his best stats against all-time weak defenses. Darnold was alright here and I was fine with keeping him in a backup role.

Well, these comments sound familiar.

I mean, Sam Darnold did dumb things.  And he would do them often after doing good things.  Sometimes awesome things.   Most of his career.  Think a lot of that has to do w/ not having good coaching or with a good org (Jets/Panthers).  

Just seems like they have figured out how to remove the dumb.  Sam Darnold as most have always said, was a super physically talented football player.  He potentially could of pursued other positions he had so much talent. Which we don't have right now.  The Darnold and Young critiques don't run that similar.  Most of Sam's critiques were about his decision making.  Most of Youngs are about his physical tools.  Basically polar opposites that simply have being criticized in common.

    • Especially with no other major sports in the area other than UNCW basketball and soccer. It's a good 2 1/2 hour drive just to catch a collegiate football game. If this new arena were built I would hope it also includes an Adult League - I would join up and time allowing would be more than happy to help coach some youth teams. 😄  
    • That was real fear in his eyes when the rope was being taken. My younger days, I had my best friend that happened to be black come over all the time. I had the nicest bulldog on the planet, my friend Damon was scared to death of him. His grandmother and daddy taught him to fear all dawgs and seen the same fear in his face and voice.    I think alllll young kids should take swimming lessons and not fear the water. Very thankful my parents did this, I no longer get in the ocean since its 50% sewage. But I enjoyed all the lakes, pools, and oceans I swam in.     
    • My personal opinion is the non-guaranteed contract is the main reason for NFL success. MLB and NBA players are on cruise control after their big contracts and it shows in the product.  NFL is each year you are fighting for your job. Same for the majority of the public.... You get lazy or try to coast after the 100+ million contract, your ass will be cut within 1-2 years. Then the next one will not even touch 100 million+. Besides a few NBA players like Kobe was coming for blood with a 300 million contract or 1 doll hair deal. Brandy Beal just reached a buyout where he was getting 110 million, many other cases..... I dare say his name for the hornets guy..... MLB sooo many times as well.    If the NFL starts fully guaranteeing all contracts, Id have a new hobby to fill the hours of entertainment NFL gave me.
