Canales and Darnold

Anthony Richardson has tools and size. He was also clearly fuging awful.

Darnold chokes without ever even reaching the playoffs. This revisionist history based on one game is utterly laughable.

He has gotten better, without question, but he is also a bottom third QB.

No man, he is not bottom third. Please. 
I saw him choke in the biggest game for Minnesota last year.  Sure did. Not blind. But I don’t know that he learned nothing. We may get some clarity on that coming up soon. 

People usually do incremental improvements rather than putting it all together at once. Or they don’t because they hit their ceiling and can’t improve but that is generally an ability thing. 
Plus players often learn best from failure, and getting more repetitions where they can apply what they may have learned. 
 

I guess I am a less than serious fan because I would take going 12-5, 13-4, and playoffs most years and be satisfied, with no guarantee of a SB championship. 
Compared to what we have been fed for years, I take that poo all day every day. That is what he is doing. 
 

I’ll wait and see how he responds this year because they will be in the playoffs won’t they?

Lol. Yeah, I would also take Minnesota and Seattle's roster and coaching. What kind of absolutely lightspeed insane comparison are you even making? Darnold would have much more visually pleasing and little better or equivalent W/L results in Carolina this season. As bad as Bryce is at dumb dumb TO's, Darnold is in the Winston tier. 

The people that continue to view him as this QB god are pure football comedy.

Glad I am entertaining you yuck yuck. 
I damned sure would rather watch him instead of Bryce every Sunday (and that goes for other QBs too).
There is no way of knowing the record with him but I would think he could do better with this team than what we have.
