Just saw this...

I get that as an agent, it's his job to advocate for his client.

I question whether he really has a leg to stand on here, though 😕

He will have his redemption shot at some point this year, so long as he is not too tired. Jones has far too much of an injury history to not miss time.

Assuming he doesn't push for a trade. Though again, I doubt he has any real leverage.

I feel like Darnold is a guy that can have a partially good season, but never a complete one.

To his credit, he did at least improve the number of games he was capable of looking good for after he left us 😕

 

 In fairness to us, Darnold had better players around him than he did here.

Wilson was traded from the Jets for a 6th round pick and the Broncos got him and a 7th in return I think. Or vice versa. I wouldn't expect it to be anything more than that, if even that much for trade terms.

That or Daniel Jones will remind everyone he is Daniel Jones the quarterback and at some point, you'll turn to anyone that's not Daniel Jones.

More speculative based on what happened up to this point, but I feel AR may still be struggling on how to be the type of guy that the locker room wants to follow. Otherwise, it's simply that his accuracy remains poor and it's not looking like a Josh Allen situation where he was the rare exception of fixing that aspect in the pro level.

Falcons OT Storm Norton underwent ankle surgery Tuesday and is now expected to miss 6-8 weeks, per source.

Then today offensive tackle Kaleb McGary and was carted off with a leg injury that necessitated an MRI.

And your young QB has a laundry list of major injuries during college football. Oh wee mayne...

Falcons RT MCGary carted off, don't know how bad it is yet, but bad enough for the cart being brought out.

Penix is left handed, so he just lost his blind side protector.  Falcons fans bemoaning their tackle depth (who doesn't).

fug em. 

If I had to watch this team trot out David Foucault and Nate Chandler as the starting tackles in a nationally televised game I have no sympathy for any other team in the league.

They can figure it out.

Damn... Might just be due to it happening to Slater and now McGary but it feels like there was another player or two that just signed extensions and have already suffered significant injuries.

Happened last offseason too. It's just part of it.

Hell, we had CMC, Donte Jackson and D. Brown all basically have that happen after inking big deals.

I feel the same way but I might be thinking Saints, they've had some OL injuries as well

      Big changes coming

      By MechaZain · Posted

      I'd like to see the gameday chats come back, especially if you can get it mobile compatible and like those support chats that stay on the screen even when you move around the site. We could use them during CLTFC and Hornets games now too.

      Brown on BY9 while talking to Chris Long

      There's a lot of truth here, but at the same time, that one year of production we might be paying for is actually paying for a development arc. And a lot of players have those. QB is the most complicated position in sports, hands down.  I'm not saying Bryce will make it past the hump this year, the odds are stacked against him just like any QB in the league that isn't already considered an elite player (and there are only about 5-8 of those at most). Arcs happen, and slow arcs happen, too. Sam Darnold seemed a wash up for the Jets and a horrible mistake. He was better with us, but still couldn't carry a bad team on his shoulders (or bad coaching). He went to Minnesota and got a shot under better coaching with more mature eyes to see the field. Something sparked and then he took his team to the Super Bowl and brought home a ring. Baker Mayfield had a similar arc, and may yet hit the big game. Hell, locally, Jake Delhomme had one. Or Bryce could flutter back down having already hit his peak. It happens. More often than any of us want to admit. We've paid for a full development arc for Bryce, but we've had it on rookie deal rates and that's been a savings that has let us build out the rest of the team, which was really needed. Maybe we end up diving back into the QB pool in the first round next season. Might be the guy, might not.  But he'll be set up with a better team that Bryce was when he started. Or maybe, just maybe, Bryce adds another seven TDs and loses four INTs on the season. Grabs three more wins and maybe a playoff win, maybe two. It's not completely impossible and that'd be great for the team and for him.  We're just going to have to tune in and see how it plays out. Probably won't be boring.

      I am holding out hope for a miraculous run this season. But you know the narrative around him is peak delusional when the Panthers social team can post this without even a hint of irony. Four years and almost 50 games into his career he still looks like he's never set foot in the weight room. Really?
