slats Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 The entire organization wants Darnold to win the job, are doing everything they can to help him win it, and ultimately the same people who want him to win the job will be deciding whether or not he does. Personally, I think he’s the favorite to start the season, and he should be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyLV Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 2 hours ago, Patriot Killa said: Wait so does he have a “very fair shot at the starting job” or is he “still a year away”? i don’t get that part. Still happy to see he has looked so solid. Very encouraging. Preseason is soooo important in making the decision though. I pray that he’s lights out. I think the year away is pure Schefter editorializing to make it more dramatic if he wins, and he can say "as I reported the Jets thought Darnold was a year away, but he won the job" type of thing.

chirorob Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 32 minutes ago, Philc1 said: Not true. Aaron Rodgers, Eli Manning, Ben Rothlisberger and Phil Rivers didn’t start immediately. Neither did Drew Brees or Tom Brady. Ben actually did start most of his rookie year (13 starts). He wasn't supposed to, but injuries forced him in. The Steelers did run the ball over 62% of the time that year. He also didn't attempt over 500 passes until his 6th year in the NFL. Kind of crazy, Brady only threw for 4000 yards once before he turned 30. Rivers didn't have a big season until he was 27 (5th year in the league). Brees didn't throw for 4000 until his 6th year in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetsplayer21 Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 3 hours ago, sec101row23 said: I agree, but let’s face it, going 4-12 with McCown as QB he gets fired. Going 4-12 with Darnold playing and looking promising, he keeps his job. Not even Bowles could ignore that fact. He should be fired for 4-12 regardless of who the qb is. He definitely gets fired if darnold plays when he is not ready. Bowles may not be a smart coach, but he is a very stubborn 1 and won’t buckle for anyone.

MaxAF Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 My take. Preseason will be the test. Give him every opportunity to play. If he shows signs of remote greatness go with him. He will make his mistakes, throw interceptions, misread coverages but that will make him better. He needs to get seasoned. Like going into tours at war. Every tour makes you a better warrior. You can train forever, take notes and hold a clipboard on the sideline but nothing will make you battle ready until the real bullets are flying. This year with McCown or Bridgewater is an 8-8, 9-7 at the very best. I’d rather go 7-9 or 8-8 with Darnold and have a season under his belt for next year unless he totally blows up in preseason.

BurnleyJet Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Sam is just to good, he's kicking ass in Practice. The kid got skills the other two guys can only dream of. He's Not lost, no training wheels here. Darnold is the real deal, making proper reads, making time in the pocket. changing plays at the line. The kids 21 (just). I've never read positive reports like this before, it's Football porn. After Sanchez and Geno Smith, it's still a shock, we "may" have a Real NFL Franchise QB at last!

Yup, Rodgers needed to have his entire game redone and had Favre in front of him. Rivers was behind Brees. Manning behind Warner. Notice a trend? All HOF QBs.

It’s one thing when you have Petty and Hackenberg behind McCown, but when you have a 21 year old 3rd pick in the draft behind McCown, it sounds incompetent. completely agree with the bolded.. bowles has to be aware any future he may or may not have as an NFL HC (here or anywhere else) is to hook his wagon to darnold ASAP..

He only went on to play five more seasons and was a Santonio Holmes great catch away from another SB win. Observant of you. Big Ben? Who said a word about Big Ben. Brees was a bust? Sure he was. What's your point that he didn't play well until 04? That was Rivers rookie year. He sat behind a HOF QB. You're arguing that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
