He had no problem trying to make a play happen because he knew he was the team.

I'm excited for the guy but seeing him show little desire to take a chance and make a play is a bit concerning. He has been deadly accurate and I would love to talk about that but your homerism is so overwhelming you make it hard to enjoy being a fan of football. Recall preseason 2006. We were saying the same thing about chad pennington. Then week 1, he slung it all over the place for over 300 yards and we beat tenn. He is going to sling it all over. Its just not being shown in the preseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coaching staff is definitely stifling Darnold because they’re SO CONCERNED about his turnovers last year at USC. Let the kid play. Cut him loose. That’s what made him so magical his freshman year.

whodeawhodat Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 I thought the jets showed well. ST during a preseason game, I can live with sh*tting the bed in that area. there will be better players there during the season. the defense gave up a couple long plays but stiffened up and didn't let up a td. Even caused a fumble or two. Darnold put some nice drives together. nice passes. got put behind the sticks with some penalties but all in all I like what I saw.

In preseason 2012, the offense looked awful under Sparano and then Sanchez exploded in game 1 vs the Bills. My point is less the gameplanning portion of the preseason game but more in line with the player displaying his tools. Bridgewater is what he is - an exceptional game manager - I want Darnold to be more than that. He tried one deep ball (all preseason) and it failed miserably. I hope he gets the chance to fail because I think he has the tools to improve on those failures but between this coaching staff and Darnold's history of turnovers he might end up more Alex Smith than Aaron Rodgers.

sec101row23 Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 I think what we are seeing with Darnold is a very young QB who has heard for the last 9 months that his biggest weakness was his propensity to turn the ball over. Now he comes to the NFL on team with a defensive HC, with an even larger emphasis on not turning the ball over. I don’t know what the coaches are telling him, or the level of aggressiveness of the play calls but it does seem they are easing him into the transition. I haven’t watched an all 22 of the games so I don’t know if there has been numerous opportunities downfield with open receivers that he is simply not throwing to or if the play designs are for him to stay in the short to medium range. Watching Darnold in college you would never call him conservative or afraid of throwing downfield, so seeing him now tells me the coaches have been preaching a conservative approach. I just hope they don’t coach out what makes him what he is. I do know however that this team needs to figure out how to run the ball better or it’s going to be a very tough year for Darnold. Run blocking isn’t good and I’m not too enamoured with the RBs in general. This team isn’t going to be good this year, we knew that, but I hope we don’t see a situation where these coaches neuter Darnold to the point it sets his development back. I have a bad feeling this is very similar to the Jared Goff situation with Fisher, we’ll see if Bates can not allow that to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was looking at the teams penalties under Bowles, think one season was bad, the rest so so. But interestingly their penalty totals compared to their opponents were similar. I think last year pissed him off and its led to it being addressed this year at camp. We've all read about the team doing pushups as punishment for penalties. Dont know what more you can do. We'll see i guess in the regular season when we're not watching grocery clerks playing and when the referees slow down with the head calls and the defensive holding/hands calls. They were awfful last night, so so vs the Skins and good against Atlanta I think. But youre 100% right, we cant have all these penalties, were not a good enough team to make up for them.
