I am just making fun of the 40 different "HOW DUMB ARE WE TO HAVE GOTTEN RID OF MAYFIELD AND DARNOLD???" threads over the course of the season where all these doofuses start chimping out after every good Darnold or Mayfield game. 

I mean, they're both playing a LOT better away from Carolina. Kinda like the dude that's been divorced multiple times and his exes are all in happy long-term relationships. Like bro, I don't think it's a them problem...

Darnold can not play from behind. Bet he will throw a pick because he can’t help playing hero ball. 

Some of the play calling wasn't helping him. A big 58 yd run got them close to the goal line and then they called four unsuccessful pass plays.

The person who was in charge when they were here wasn't exactly Coach of the Year

Not that they played a good team today, but Baker willed them to a win today and made Mike Evans very happy with his record. Darnold has JJ rolling is eyes all night on these over throws

Baker is a gamer. Always has been. Darnold is a very physically talented panicker. Always has been. You have to protect Darnold from himself and the Vikings' OC failed miserably at that tonight. They ran the ball very effectively in the rare occasion they did run it but he just kept putting everything on Darnold's shoulders like he had a 1st ballot HOFer at QB. It was honestly baffling to watch.

I think O'Connell really believes in his turnaround of Darnold.

Yeah, exposed themselves for the first playoff game for no reason in the process. An away game at that. Crazy to think these guys get paid this much and spend 12 hours a day working and can choke on situations so obvious

Maybe tonight will show him that he still has to protect Darnold from Darnold. I mean, damn... when you're running at a 7ypc clip I don't care if you have Joe Montana at QB. RUN the fuging ball!

Kinda like the Falcons today. Honestly they win comfortably if they had simply scrapped every play in their playbook that wasn't a power run to the right. NFL coordinators just outsmart themselves a lot. The first rule is always that if you're doing something and it's working keep doing that thing until they stop it. If you don't then you're your opponent's best weapon. They might still be racking up yards down there in Arthur's Anus just running student body right over and over and over again.

I think with the Falcons the offensive strategy worked, I just don't think they were prepared for us to get a TD on almost every possession. More of a clock management chess match

      Major Concerns with this team…with numbers

      By Stumpy · Posted

      The good news is that we are pretty uniquely well established to address all of our needs this season. We have $14m real cap space, and something like $40m in trade deadline cap space. Not sure exactly how that works out. But, we have the room to absorb any bad contracts. With recent rule changes regarding retention, that went into effect this season, we now have a huge advantage in the trade market.  On top of that, while we do have obvious needs, we also have a glut of talent in certain areas that we struggle to find ice time for. We are over-stocked on scrappy talented lil-guys, strong defensively sound 3rd liners and shutdown left shot dmen. Whether it's a package or separate deals, idk. But, one of each from Stank/Blake/Nads, Erob/Carrier/KK/Jank, and Walker/Nystrom; throw in some 1st round picks (and frankly any other prospects they want) and we should be able to come out with a 1b to pair with Bussi and either a 2c with size or a 2c and size.   TL/DR We got the money, you got the stuff?

      I don’t  think 6’4 was ever considered small or undersized. Baby hands tho, yes that was his thing That’s an interesting idea, like an optical illusion? Sounds like you have personal experience with this!

      in the 25' draft the Carolina Panthers had hired Brandt Tillis someone who actually understood how to build a successful team & build through the draft .  this team was yes mismanaged for years prior to Brandt Tillis joining the team in 25' & rarely done anything right in the draft outside occaionaly getting lucky on an UDFA such as Jalen Coker who's dad coincidentally happened to be a huge Carolina Panthers fan, hint hint  ...just saying
