Sanchez walked into the best OL in the league, the best running game in the league and the best defense in the league. We're comparing Apples to sh*t tacos.

Its year 2. If it acts like bust, talks like a bust, and looks like a bust it’s probably a bust. He’s 22 so perhaps he can turn it around, but I honestly believe we are spinning our wheels with him and Gase. He's a "bust"? His record is basically 5-4 in 2019 playing on the weakest roster in the NFL along with the Worst OL, No Running game (AGAIN..2nd year, can't even play action) and receivers who rarely get separation. He has put up 30+ points in about 1/2 his games played this year. He does that practically ALL BY HIMSELF as he runs for his life on every play he looks to go downfield. That's quantified. Sam Darnold has THE LEAST TIME OF ANY QB IN THE NFL to throw a pass. That's a bust? Mark Sanchez could rarely hit a receiver in stride playing with the BEST OL in the NFL in front of him, and virtually never put up 30 points his ENTIRE career. You would be happy if you saw Over 200 passing yards in his stat line, over that ENTIRE career haha...THAT is a bust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freestater Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Whether this particular play is him locking on to his guy left and missing the check down, relies on context. Where are we in the game? Late 4th, down big? Checkdowns dont help there. Early, still in it? Egregious abandonment of his progressions.

Game 1 of the season against Buffalo that teams statistically win 99% of the time...I'd put that in Darnold's win column, same as I would put games like Houston last year and Green Bay the following week, where Darnold single handed gave the Jets leads LATE only to see Bowles D crater, as usual, on the final drive. Look, bottom line, no one can properly evaluate Darnold with the greatest of accuracy playing on this "team". But I've already seen way more than Flashes that he has outstanding raw talent and if he ever gets real professional players surrounding him the Sky is the Limit.

Yes, criticize terrible turnovers ect., but scrutinizing each & every missed checkdown is asinine! I have Kareem Hunt in fantasy so I watched a Browns game, Mayfield was always looking downfield & not checking down (while I was selfishly looking for check down points in PPR, lol). This day & age of social media & criticizing every little thing is getting monotonous. Could you imagine Namaths bad games in this day & age? OMG! Even Sanchez wasn't criticized as much & the kid threw 5 picks while his team rushed for over 300 yards & we LOST!!! Can you imagine how dangerous Sam would be throwing downfield, moving the pocket & doing playaction with an Oline & running game that could run for over 300 YARDS? We eke out 50 in 4 f*cking quarters for god sake! Perspective people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Losmeister Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 for me, when i watched the game there were definitely times where i wondered if he coulda pulled it down and run or checked it down... this is an example of one he could easily have checked down and gotten yards... this whole DONT EVER CRITICIZE SAM deal is extreme he is FAR FROM A FINISHED PRODUCT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember that game where the offense put up 8 points? The one where the scored the TD on the short field after the D handed the ball over with a safety? That counts as a win for the offense. Maybe they multiply the score by 5 because mono. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Alex from JetNation Radio tweeted this and I thought it was worth sharing. I am on record as saying the Jets have a lot of problems and Sam isn't one. But, he has a ton of room to get better. Here is a prime example. Quicker is better, but he got sacked at the 3 second mark and that is fast. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PepPep Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 This is on Sam but in the way that its on Sam despite it also being very much on Shell. So although I agree that Sam still has room to grow and there are a number for examples where he makes mistakes, this is not a very good example. Yes he takes a sack and had Bell open on a check down. But its not like he held on to the ball THAT long, its that Shell was absolutely smoked. And Dunlap went around the edge so Sam couldn't really see him, he had to just sense him. It's really tough to put that on Darnold. If anything, I'd say that sack is 90% on Shell for getting smoked and 10% on Sam for not assuming his O-line was going to fail him and taking the first dump down short yardage option. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetsfan80 Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 It's pretty simple. Sam is not yet a bust. He's also not yet a franchise QB. I think he's closer to the latter category than the former, and he was my top QB in the 2018 class. But I'm not going to get sucked in emotionally like I did with Sanchez and, briefly, Geno.

I'm not going to say that you're wrong, but this stat isn't exactly apples to apples. Snap to throw includes quick hitters, screen passes and throws to the first read. Not having much of that contributes to longer times, as does a guy like Darnold extending plays by rolling around back there. In this play, the LDE runs right around Shell who barely gets a hand on him. The guy lined up a little wide and took a big arc, but you can't get there much faster. Considering it is a 4 man rush and the fact the guy came from his back, you can't really blame Darnold much for looking downfield and not knowing he was going to get wrecked. If the play was breaking down someplace where he could see it, or on a blitz, he likely would have dumped it to Bell. He's got trips left and that is where the bulk of his reads probably are, the inside guy (Montgomery, I believe) was about to break wide open at the 20. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
