Warfish Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 1 hour ago, More Cowbell said: I have been a big Darnold supporter and I still am. I believe he will be a FQB for this team but I have been thinking, we might be looking at a Matt Stafford situation where we have a very talented QB that just doesn't have what it takes to pull the team up. Now Stafford did ave Megatron and now has Gallowday and Sam has not had anyone that approaches the talent level so it is difficult to make a fair comparison but I was wondering what the rest of you think. Are we in a position like Detroit where we have a QB that should be able to lead this team higher but just doesn't. Based on what we've seen to-date, we wish Darnold was Matt Stafford. He's not even close so far. But good seeing the usual folks trot out the "just need weapons, and time" argument we always hear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ex-Rex Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 Darnold looks like he is becoming another Mark Sanchez. Lost and no clue of what to change and when to change it. Plus, he has a HC who is even MORE lost than his QB. Stafford is head and shoulders better than Darnold at this point. Something needs to happen to save this kid before he DOES become Sanchez. Like FIRING Adam Gase ASAP, which I know the gutless Johnson's won't do. How did Gase even get into the conversation for the job. Let's put McCarty's resume next to Gase and you see 125 wins, several division titles, several NFC Championship games, a SB win and then you have Gase who had a losing record and players that rejoiced in his leaving. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Integrity28 Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 Only similarity I can think of: both drafted and stuck with franchises that continually fail to pieces around them.
