Darnold didn't have good players around him?  Maybe last year, but it's funny to say that Robby Anderson wasn't good with the Jets but was with the Panthers.  In 2019 he had: Anderson, Jamison Crowder and Demaryius Thoms at WR, which is pretty damn good.  He had Leveon Bell at RB.  That's a pretty good offense.  Granted, his coach was awful... but.

And when I say they don't know what they are doing, I mean their entire body of work so far.  

And during that year he has a statically decent season for a 2nd year pro. 

Entire Body?  

Hurney f'd up the Bridgewater deal.  I'll give you that Tepper should have fired him when he let Rivera. Tepper IMO did everything right with the exception of firing Hurney when he fired Rivera.

Rhule w/Hurney 2020 draft was probably our best draft in many years.

Rhule and Fitterer 2021 draft may in a couple of years be the key draft that brings us a Lombardi.

There isn't one organization that does everything right.  Not one.  Some are better than others but IMO we have a staff that will run with the upper echelon of team management. 

I guess you prefer the old regime.

Demaryius Thomas was a bum.

I could count on one hand the number of times I even heard his name called.

 

The only players Sam had success with were Robbie (who ended up here) and Crowder.

 

He also threw to some TE named Hogan.  

 

Leveon Bell wasn't brought to the Jets to be a Wide Receiver.   He was brought there to run the ball....

 

...and he SUCKED at doing that.     Could've been the Offensive-line's doing (which is a possibility) but he did not get the job done.    So he wasn't any help for Sam.

 

It's not a case of Sam not having good players around him...it's a case of Sam not having *ENOUGH* good players around him.

 

As a Panther now. he will have MORE than enough.

I think Darnold could have a very Romo-like career here. Imo Romo lacked some elite pieces around him specifically on defense. It seemed like the Cowboys always gave him pretty good weapons but there was never an elite defense that could carry him in an off game. 
 

If you solve that for Darnold then he could have a really productive career here.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      Yeah and he succeeded at an even higher level in LA with an even better surrounding cast. Goff is a guy that isn't really able to dramatically elevate players around him but he can make a good situation even better. He is capable of that. Some QB's aren't. I am not sure Dak is able to do that and he is in a similar "class" as Goff, IMO.

      Snow in the high country

      By rayzor · Posted

      i think i could handle that for a year. beyond that....i don't know.  back where we lived, when we had a few inches of snow, it might have been a couple feet because we weren't getting out and doing anything. i remember times where power would go out for days on end. we had propane and electric heat, depending on the floor. basement (had a couple bedrooms and a living room and kitchen down there) and main floor had gas logs. main floor gas logs was enough to take care of the upstairs, so we could stay warm and cook on the grill when we needed. we had a well so that was always an issue when the power went out. had to make sure tubs were filled with water for the toilets and we had gallons of water for drinking and cooking available. always had to make sure we were ready. that wasn't always the case. we had a couple moments where we were going through propane quickly and because we were dealing with the worst propane company in the world (amerigas) they wouldn't get out to put gas in our 900 gallon tank. made for some nerve racking moments.  i know y'all were probably a lot more able to handle that kind of thing, but after the little bit (comparatively) that we got here i just have no desire to get trapped again. maybe for a day or two a year get snowed in and i'm good.

      We finally get to see Brooks this week

      I think he is just drawing a DC to them line and that's about as far as his thought process went. It makes almost no sense outside of that. Also, it doesn't make sense for Pittsburgh or Seattle at this juncture either.  I think our "veteran" pool is basically gonna be the Dalton/Flacco tier or the "pick your poison" options of young busts(Jones/Z. Wilson) or wild, TO prone gunslingers(Darnold/Winston/etc). We have the option to pursue I genuinely believe(depending on the way the rest of this season goes), we either draft a QB in the top 10 or resign Dalton. Outlier third option on taking one of the wild gunslingers that Dave feels like he can work with.
