Nixhead Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 Sam Darnold says Jets can be 'unstoppable as an offense' once Chris Herndon returns play Ninkovich laughs at the thought of Jets beating Patriots (2:37) FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- New York Jetsquarterback Sam Darnold, not known for bold statements, stepped out of character on Thursday, setting huge expectations for his offense. "Right now, we're just missing Chris [Herndon]. Once all the guys are back together, I think we're unstoppable as an offense -- or we can be," he said, referencing the injured tight end. "It's just up to us and how we execute. It's really up to us how many points we score, I think. I think we're capable of so many points. With our offensive line, too, the way they played last game, with the way we've been running the ball and the way they've been protecting, sky's the limit for us." Darnold's return last week ignited the previously dormant offense. He passed for 338 yards and two touchdowns in the Jets' upset win over the Dallas Cowboys. Before that, though, the Jets were historically bad. With Darnold sidelined for three games with mononucleosis, they managed only one offensive touchdown. All told, the Jets have five touchdowns from scrimmage through six weeks, the fewest in franchise history. They rank last in nearly every offensive category. On Monday night, the Jets (1-4) face the New England Patriots (6-0), who lead the NFL in most defensive categories. Herndon (hamstring) is unlikely to play, but he could return the following week. The Jets really don’t want to give N.E. any kind of motivation for this upcoming game. I can guarantee Belichick is telling his team the Jets are an up and coming team with a young up and coming QB and let’s not give them an inch of breathing room and let them get confident. I’m sure Darnold comments will be the talk of the day at Pats defensive practice tomorrow. Cmon Sam u gotta know that u say 1 thing to a reporter and they are gonna twist it into something else. Your a smart kid but you got to dummy up like Belichick when u talk. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warfish Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 If Baker said it, this forum would be aghast. Sam said it, so it's all good. :JustFanStuff: Also, "unstoppable" would be a hell of an upgrade from "#32 Offense in the NFL".

RevisIsland610 Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 I think Darnold is getting a little giddy here. Lets see if we can move up to 31st in overall offense before talking. If he remains healthy they will score their share of points but the OL is still trash and receivers are so-so. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said the offense can be unstoppable right after he got with Gase and in the preseason. Got to watch those pressers ? And what does this have to do with Mayfield? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Throw EVERY Jet Offensive stat out the window the whole time Luke Falk was somehow in the NFL. What Darnold did Sunday against Dallas, pretty much torching Houston’s top ranked D end of last year is pretty much going to be the NORM going forward...Watch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think people get how good this Pats D has been - historically good. If Darnold can shred them it will be super exiting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Charlie Brown Posted October 18, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted October 18, 2019 I deleted my post on what was said by Darnold because I saw it as well but this version is missing, IMO, some of the best quotes which tell us just how mentally sound Darnald is.... And I do mean mentally sound, not bragging but definitely believing in himself and his teammates and that is all we can ask!!! https://nypost.com/2019/10/17/sam-darnold-chris-herndons-return-can-make-jets-offense-unstoppable/ Here are some of the best ones... “I think for us, when you get locked in on trying to break the dynasty or tear them down, that’s when you start losing control of yourself, or losing control of your emotions during the game,” Darnold said. “For us, it’s continuing to take it one game at a time and focus on this game plan and what we need to do. The certain looks that we get, how we’re going to digest those and go about the game that way." AND...................... “You said it, their defense is good, they have been all year, but just like any other team, they’re not unbeatable,” Darnold said. “So we just got to go out there and find a weakness in the defense and keep working. That’s what we’re going to do on Monday night. Our whole team is super-excited to play, too. We’re excited to go out there. We had a good practice today and we’re looking to build off that.” AND THIS ONE............ “I’m not focused on Brady at all. Belichick’s the defensive coordinator. So I’m going up more against him, I think,” Darnold said. “It’s just X’s and O’s. For us, it’s about executing and playing better than them.” 7 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
