Two giveaways in a half is most certainly playing badly. 

Two giveaways?

Damn that Darnold dude sure ain’t no franchise quarterback. What kind of FQB has 3 touchdowns at the half. 

Man oh man.

He's 22. So, growth possible.

And he has the arm and legs necessary to succeed. 

So, I'm willing to wait and see. I'm not going to get too frustrated with him.

I won't promise not to get frustrated opinions that don't acknowledge his shortcomings.

Unfortunately, that reasoning is the reason why it’s going to take the Jets at least another year to face the fact that Darnold is not a franchise QB. That’s the way they operate. Heck, it might even be two years before they move on. 
 

It’s clear to me now that it doesn’t matter that he’s 22 years old. We can’t rewire his brain, and the sad fact is that there’s a defect in there that causes him to short circuit in high-pressure situations a lot of times. I’m now watching Jets games not wondering if Darnold is going to throw a boneheaded interception; I’m sitting there knowing it’s going to happen eventually.

Well it’s not as terrible to me because the bigger issue is that you don’t destroy the offense and OL before bringing in a rookie QB or even a FA QB like Bridgewater. Our team was ruined right before finding a QB or 2 with Darnold and Bridgewater. I’m not nearly as upset about losing Bridgewater as I am about the systematic destruction of the already bad roster that Big Mac inherited. This is like the 20th worst thing on my list haha. 

Bridgewater was already here, and it didnt require trading Bridgewater in order to build the offensive line. 

 

Maybe if we didnt draft Quinnen Williams and Jachai Polite we could have invested into the Oline. 

 

However, front offices that would trade their best QB for an unknown rookie, would also ignore the Oline with their top picks even though knowing the problems. 

 

Jetsy all the way around.

For some reason they think losing the ball and recovering it is a turnover 

[STLuLu]

Based of what's going on in this game, if Darnold would've played against the Eagles, the Jets probably would be looking at sweeping the NFC east.

[Ohhthepain]

Remember when a few dummys wanted to pick another QB in 2020. Ryan Clark, Deon Sanders,  and a select few posters on this board....Pathetic and Sad!

Not sure it would be the same playing a good team team or defense 

Skins got the ball twice in the red zone and got 3 points 

Good teams would have made them pay 

There were defenders on both those Griffin plays that weren’t even bothering to try. Skins have completely mailed it in, which is awesome because **** those guys and that ludicrous fanbase.

Agree with this. The good thing about Sam is that aside from the puzzling throw here and there he generally plays a good game. Not like Sanchez and Geno who would just look lost for stretches at a time. Still haven't lost any faith in his long term outlook.

 

If the Jets had the same personnel as Sanchez and Geno, the same fate would await Darnold.

Darnold's ok. He's not limited in the talent department. But two turnovers in one half is not acceptable and against a good defense would mean the Jets behind...

Please, if Sanchez or Geno made the bonehead throws Darnolds makes routinely, you'd have zero "faith in his long term outlook".

[Villain The Foe]

I gotta say, watching Dwayne Haskins, It's clear that the Giants made the right decision going with Daniel Jones. 

Haskins looks terrible thus far.

Now that's how you close out the first half!

I was referring to prior to getting Bridgewater. It was a great FA signing but the moves in the year prior were way more of a blunder than trading him in my opinion is all.

Patriots historically good defence destroys Sam Darnold - Worst QB Ever

Darnold throws 3 TD's - Worst Defence ever

How would you describe the coverage of the D of the Skins?

A guy not within 15 yds on the TE?

Seriously 

Darnold is always going to make throws here and there that make you shake your head.

It’s who he is

But give him a decent OL and a legit weapon at receiver and he’ll make a helluva lot more good plays than bad.

Kid is still only 22 years old and this is only his 5th/6th year of playing the position.

He was always going to be a work in progress and he’s going to be awesome down the road.

Okay, but my point still stands though. 

Also, when you need a QB as well then you dont disregard the opportunity to get Bridgewater because you dont have an Oline or offensvie weapons. Afterall, you still need a QB when what you're dealing with is Geno, Petty, Hack, Fitz and McCown.

I get it you have given up on Sam.  I find it ridiculous but it’s your right I guess.  Can you at least wait until he has a better OLINE and is healthier next year.  If he still is as bad as you think they we will move on. Fair?

[Larz]

So bless Austin looks the part. Really hoping he stays healthy for obvious reasons but also so Douglas can evaluate him if he can start next year

I didn’t realize Sam fumbled the kick off return.

After Darnold had extended the play and ran to his left. 

Was that the only play of the game?
