It's just harder to see because he's been surrounded by such mediocrity, either via Maccagnan's awful drafting or unprecedented injuries.

To put it succinctly, Darnold has had a bottom 3 offensive line and bottom 3-5 WR corps since he has been a Jet (I'd be curious to know if anyone on this board would seriously argue with the bolded). Putting his performance in that context, I think it makes a lot of sense to be excited about Darnold's future. Preach it, brother.

Irish Jet Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 Darnold isn't even close to the most ridiculous selection on that list. These ESPN talk-shows are a god damn cancer. The guys don't believe 10% of the sh*t they say. Just a bunch of provocateurs trying to say the most controversial things they can to get people to tune in. Sad to see genuinely knowledgeable dudes like Max Kellerman reduce themselves to this sh*t as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
68JET11 Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 Agree with everything Dan said in his piece... Sam has done more with all the crap this team (was)... If the OL performs anywhere near the top 1/3 in the NFL this year, then I EXPECT Sam to up his game. I've been very impressed with his ability to read the defense, not key on one target, and to scramble for his life while having a very accurate pass while on the run. Some of the throws he makes under duress are a thing of beauty. Yes he also has thrown up a fair amount of stupid throws as well under duress. If he's got a few more seconds to process this year then he should be even better than he already is. What I won't stand for is if he has more time and doesn't use good footwork, then I'll be upset at the coaches for not drilling it into his head. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was saying the other day that Carson Wentz should demand a trade, like ffs no way even he believes that bullsh*t. It was Skip who started it all. He got the reactions and people kept tuning in for more. Since then they're all trying to emulate him. They give the game away when there's any sort of serious implications to their position - Suddenly they'll all agree when it's a real issue but when it's a debate about a team or athlete they take opposite positions for the sake of it. Trash. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rangerous Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 rule no. 1 when going on an espn show is to agree with the host. orlovsky is going on a show with one of the biggest jets homers in media. what do you think he would say? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
14 in Green Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 Yes, I did. Orlovsky was the guy who practically got laughed off the set, right? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetsplayer21 Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 Good points by him Darnold was playing with possibly one of the worst NFL offensives in the history of NFL last yr. With the pick ups, and hopefully a healthier yr, things will be much better. They couldn’t get any worse, can only go up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyLV Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 Reality is that looked at over a 12-15 year period he is likely very right. Most people will just look at last year and say that it is completely insane. Some people will just look at Sam's numbers and think that he sucks and refuse to allow for any context. Brady was behind a Top 10 OLs last year but with a diminished receiving corps and he was only slightly ahead of Darnold in QB rating, when Darnold was playing behind a bottom 3 OL (really the worst, Sam made them look better than they were) with exceedingly limited weapons, and was also in the Top 5 of all QBs when given time in the pocket. Reality is that Sam just does things that none of the other prospects over last 3 years can do. Orlovsky is correct that Sam and Joe are very similar but Sam just has a better arm. We have seen the Lamar Jackson show before. RGIII, Kapernick, Newton all looked unstoppable in similar systems but 2 things happened: 1. Defenses figured out how to neutralize them 2. Getting constantly hit made them break down (RGIII and Newton). Jackson has already been hit over 300 times in 2 years. His body long term will not hold up. Long term Sam is the best QB prospect over the last 3 years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daddy Wang Doodle Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 Darnold needs to get better. The talent around him was bad and needs to get better. Both of these are true. Making it a solely one or the other is disingenuous. Everyone would agree with the statements above, it's just a matter of which you're more inclined to lean towards that ultimately shapes your opinion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This idea that he isn’t already good to very good is asinine. He elevated his team to respectability when they should have been the worst team in the NFL. The statistical conversation is so absurd, it includes the New England game- the greatest statistical outlier in NFL history. Sam Darnold could regress tenfold and never have a game that statistically bad again. It’s the equivalent of a player having a 7 sack game, ending up with 12 sacks and suddenly being considered an elite pass rusher. Context is everything, most of the world is too stupid to understand that. They have zero attention spans, demand instant gratification, surface level results, everything is binary, **** the world. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure Get Up is designed to be “hot take”-y like First Take has always been but he clearly understands the QB position and football at large if you’ve heard his takes. QB analysis? Yes, he's pretty good. Spatial awareness? Not so good. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
