  1. We'll need to hear the coaches take. It looked like Darnold had the ball extended too much as he passed Ricci, but I didn't see enough replays to be sure. To be sure, I'd rather a play like that than throwing an INT into double coverage, given what we know about Darnold. If the fumble was on him, that is easy to correct, and doesn't harken back to his days as a Jet. yeah, the OL is a huge problem. Can't take advantage of that arm strength often when he has to get the ball out so fast.
  2. Decent stats - 24/35, 279 yards, 1 TD, 1 rushing TD. A fumble on a handoff. Overall, impressed with his play as someone that feared the worst... No real bone-headed throws. A couple of misses, but he also had some surprising drops by receivers. The fumble was bad, and against a better team, maybe catastrophic. He (Brady?) needs to find ways to get the receivers involved every drive, and whether it was Darnold or Brady, the redzone plays were pretty bad outside the 2nd quarter. The way he stood tall in the pocket and completed throws with DL about to hit him was impressive. I think this game goes a long way to showing he was not ruined by the Jets. Elite arm strength on display on a few plays, including that incredible bomb to Robby. Still too early to say, but we could have something as he grows with the elite skill players around him. Let's look for a complete game next week!
  3. Very weird game. A couple of drops in the 3rd quarter, a Darnold miss or two, plus weird play calls, let that game get out of control. A win is a win, Darnold has the arm, and did lead a drive that got us points at a critical juncture. I'm happy with him overall, but I hope we see more development next game.
  4. Not going to poo on a rookie corner for a miscue or two in his first couple games.
  5. Burns was held the entire 3rd quarter... he can't make a play every drive.
  6. What happened to getting other players involved like last drive? Blech.
  7. I'd rather we get the ball to him in space on a short pass, but I think the OL has collapsed so much he is having to block every play
  8. you've got a D that is gunning for your QB, a bad OL... our playcalling looks like its getting too cute.
  9. the defense was helped by a couple of drops but overall has been better than they looked. pressure on a lot of plays that Wilson escapes from or throws an incomplete pass during too
  10. it very much feels like we are scheming around how bad they are tho.
  11. What has impressed me most about Darnold is how he moves around the pocket, and delivers balls even when he is about to get hit. He is playing fearless, which was one of our biggest concerns for him.
  12. Sam had to avoid pressure and deliver the ball 50 yards down field to the opposite side of the field, it was a nice throw. A great route by Robby ofc...
  13. the Jets really really need to help their young QB out... dude is just getting crushed.
  14. it isnt even a knock on Teddy to say he couldn't make that throw. that was a crazy pass
