Well those of us that watched Darnold play in NY and here knew that it was unlikely he would fully turn the page on what held him back from being a franchise QB despite having every tool needed. When things get tough he panics and reverts to the same old same old. It's on tape over and over and over.

But still even some Panthers fans here have bought into the hype this season. Even had a guy here who just started posting in September dig up some posts of me criticizing Darnold for a game just like this saying I was wrong about him. @Joe Bear you watching the game buddy?

He always has had fanboys here for whatever reason. Nice enough guy, don't get me wrong, but he is who he is.

Yeah this game might single handedly ruin his chances of getting a $200M contract. JJ went down so early it's really tough to say if Darnold would have actually beat him out for the starting job all season

He just seems destined for the tag. If you're the Vikings you definitely don't want to let him walk for a 3rd round comp pick and you haven't seen enough from the guy you just drafted in the 1st to feel comfortable he's your guy either.

That is the most likely scenario.

Yeah, I think it's like a $40M tag...He'll have at least one playoff game to redeem this performance but that's gonna be a tough call for the Vikings. Risk letting him walk or just coughing up that much for a one year possible bridge

Tonight feels like a classic example of two career JAG QBs who have put up gaudy numbers but the you get reminded that... oh wait, these dudes really are JAGs.

Goff is a second tier QB, IMO. The Cousins/Ryan bracket. But is Achilles heel has been producing when the lights are bright.

Darnold is a backup QB.

      Bryce = Alex Smith

      Right. I didn’t think it was good either but the QB sure did. He was the defacto number one target, not Chark, was my point.

      Should Canalas bring someone else in to call offensive plays?

      By strato · Posted

      We could quibble about was that an answer to what I asked but I  don’t see it as being one. Look, he agreed to this Evero thing. Up front. Apparently anyway. Took the job with those conditions in place. I buy that and will work off of it.  This play calling issue isn’t the same thing. I am not in the mood to delve into Canales’ shortcomings and get out the pitchforks at the moment. I will abstain from that topic and stick to the quandary the dissenters who want to usurp his play calling power, find themselves in. As far as that goes I am still on the fence and think the play calling is Bryce centric and the play selection/playbook is affected. That does not mean I know that if the playbook was open he would be great play caller. Just that he is hampered right now.  Inserting an OC not of Canales’ approval changes the original parameters of the assumed agreement.  Unless you think Tepper placed a contractual prescription to allow Tepper to dictate that he can insert a play caller of his choosing after a time period if he is not satisfied with Canales’ work.  Which, do you really think that is in play?  I do not.    Unless it is, Canales has the option to yea or nay. As I said, it could be forced on him. But they only do that if they want him out.  And as of now his stock is up, I would have to say I don’t own any but I think it is up. He had the stadium rocking, the team in the playoffs, and has that sorry lil draft pick trending upward. Even at this very low rate.  I think he has ‘hand’ right now as they say on Seinfeld. This is something that may get play in the 2026 season, not now. IMO.
