Popular Post More Cowbell Posted September 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 19, 2020 Was at Rosh Hashanah dinner last night with my family who are all Giants fans. I asked my brother do you think the Jets should tank for Lawrence. He started to crack up. His answer was, boy, you Jets fans must really love being miserable. Do you actually want to see Darnold become a good QB for another team the same way Miami is looking at Tanny? The guy is realistically playing his second season after having mono last season and your WR all suck. Who is supposed to make a play for him? I mean the Giants WR's aren't that good either but at least Shepard makes plays every once in a while and we can throw to Barkley. I explained to him that after the last game, Sam might not be the guy. To that he said, please trade him to the Giants. We would take him in a heart beat over Mr turnover. This is from my brother who has relentlessly teased me about being Jets fan. 20 4 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post sec101row23 Posted September 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 19, 2020 That conversation sums up NFL fans in a nutshell. Giant fan says Sam is still young and a victim of circumstance and don’t give up on him, all the while saying he would get rid of his young QB who’s turned the ball over a few times, but he needs to go. Unless you have an Aaron Rodgers type at QB, NFL fans will always want the “other” guy. 12 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope JD knows he should build around Sam for the foreseeable future Don't blow all of the draft capital we've accumulated to take another young kid who will have no team. Let the OL gel, allow Sam time to settle into the idea that his line is giving him time and he will get the ball out to the open guys or slide it into tight coverage as we know he can do. It's wy premature to give up on Sam. I'd like to see Greg Roman with Sam. Or Even Bienemy (who I'm not sold on but still) before I Give up. Jamar Chase or Devonta Smith are coming to town to run around with Mims next season. Let Sam play with those cats. 8 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The jets did shore the oline but it still takes time for these guys to get there blocking schemes together. And for the people who think the jets didn’t get offensive weapons the did pick up mins and Perrin. It’s just too bad those guys are injured at the moment. And it’s also too bad bell is out not to mention Vincent smith. It’s hard to go into a season with half of the top players missing. another point isdarnold needs to feel comfortable that the job is his. We don’t need another Todd Robinson or fitzy Geno fiasco. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
munchmemory Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 Doesn't take an improved line to make dumb decisions on the field. Like it or not, Darnold is a turnover machine.

You don't think perhaps not playing from behind all the time has something to do with that? Maybe an extra couple of feet of separation for his receivers might help? An extra second in the pocket.

Popular Post Lith Posted September 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 19, 2020 I don't know, but I just don't think you give a QB a free 3-year pass because of an inadequate line (which may be better this year) and lack of weapons. These are legit reasons why his numbers may not be as good as other guys -- but just because his stats may not accurately reflect his ability, it does not mean you cannot judge his performance. Does he make good reads, both pre-snap and post snap? Can he find and hit receivers when they are open? Can he throw them open or put the ball in a spot where only the WR can make a play? Can he avoid forcing a ball into coverage? Can he avoid making bonehead plays like we saw last week. Does he show pocket presence to extend plays or sense where rush is coming from. There are ways to evaluate a QB other than his stat line. Stats are part of it, but watching and evaluating those elements of his play that are within his control is JD's job. Week 1, at least to my eye, he played poorly. He had chances to make plays and didn't. I don't hold him accoutnable for drops, bad routes, breakdowns in protections, etc. But still, I did not think he played well. That said, it was one game. With a roster with a lot of turnover after a limited offseason. He has 15 games left to show us what he can be. He should not have a free pass to 2021. Just my two cents. 9 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love to believe that is true because it would make things so much easier that way, but I'm beginning to think that Sam isn't the guy. He just came off a 3 month quarantine with his hand-picked personal quarterback whisperer, getting more focus on football than any other time in his entire life. He's in the same playbook running the same offense for the first time in three years. Every single offensive position coach and coordinator returned to the team. He just had 5 weeks of camp where he didn't get touched let alone hit. Even with the injuries, he's got a better O now than he did at any time last year when the roster was made up of 3rd and 4th stringers. And that performance in Buffalo was amateur hour, it was mistake after mistake, the kind of boneheaded things a high school JV quarterback would make. There comes a time when it's not the coaching, it's the player. If Sam could hit the side of a barn, we beat Buffalo last week. He'd better show up tomorrow. I'm done making excuses for him.

He’ll keep him around this year. Draft a rookie next year and start Flaco (or some other stable vet) for a year. In two years JD will have his offense built, a young QB with a year of learning the system while being on the bench and a team set up for a 4 year run. That’s his plan!

Kid is ****ed I believe the Jets can avoid extending Darnold until after next season, so if he still looks eh in a few weeks, dump Gase, name Gregg the coach, and let JimBob Cooter have a crack at him for twelve games. I think much of Darnold’s struggles are based in confidence levels, and Gase probably isn’t the guy you want nursing a young QB through a dopamine shortage. JimBob at least had experience getting Matt Stafford up and running, so let’s try that for awhile. It’d be a mistake to dump Darnold only because you want to hang on to Gase. That is obviously very unlikely to bear fruit 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BROOKLYN JET Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 It's week 2, Darnold has all season to prove his worth. I'm not going to play the blame game. If he keeps showing more of the same it's time to move on, especially if we are bad enough to land a top QB in the draft. If he progresses enough to warrant sticking with him, then we continue to build around him, but right now I don't see it. He has to show me more, regardless of who is around him. #SoCalPuke 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
