Hope, but be real. We don't know what Darnold is, but that's OK.

I just skimmed the vid again and yes there are some bad throws (but who doesnt have some on tape) but the majority of what I saw was defenses blitzing the hell out of him and his wideouts running deep routes.  Gase never adjusted for some quick outs.

 

I still will say both coaching and trotting him out to start as a 20 year old from Southern Cal are the two biggest reasons that he failed.  I mean wtf where they thinking just throwing him into the starting lineup?

The league is moving more into "throw the rookie out there and hope", but mainly due to their situations. Some are forced to draft a QB and play him in hopes of saving their job and/or organization. Not many teams take multiple years to develop a QB. Its a results league. And like its been mentioned (in this thread or maybe another), a lot of these coaches are only getting 3 years with an organization. Some put it together in time, and some don't.

I think he shined at camp.  I think they had TB there to ease Sam in, but then traded TB to the aints before the season started.

That you Sam?

Yup.  You caught me.  Wow, doxxed on the huddle.  Well I guess sht happens.

I knew a clever sod like you Sizzle would figure it out sooner or later.

Since I was so enamored with my own passing prowess to notice, please tell me,

Why do you think they brought in Teddy and then turned right around traded him away rather than easing me in like originally planned?

 I could have used the  break, you know they hadn't figured out how to even snap the ball that year.

In the last 60 days how many total hours do you figure you've spent on this website promoting Sam's cause?

I have made many, many posts and threads on the team or players other than  Sam Darnold.

But total time on the huddle?   I don't know, maybe 5 ...or ....10 minutes?

I'm a fast typer.

I don’t think Darnold is going to be complete ass but he will not be all world.   Dudes gut instinct is to get the snap, count to one then either run for his life or anticipate a car wreck.  Hard to unlearn that in one training camp, one game or maybe one season.  That said, I expect improvement but a year from now I suspect some of these same threads to be popping up.  Hopefully a lot less but there will be some for sure.  

I trust Rhule’s process and Fit because

a.  I am a Panther fan, they are in charge and I have no other choice

b.  I think Field’s is a better QB than Darnold but I also believe the Jaycee Horn pick will turn out very well.  

c.  There will be other chances to upgrade a QB if we need to.  This is likely not going to be a playoff year for us so if Darnold is a mistake it is a correctable error and I don’t think it will set us back nearly as much as some other folks 

d.  I think his team over performed last year.  The talent exhibited from last years class of rookies was a refreshing change from previous years.  

e.  This year’s draft value shows they are doing more than just throwing darts after the first round

That said, I choose to be somewhat optimistic about the future of our team.

Well said! I agree with most if not all of what you posted.

      Real Mid-Season Development at QB: Bo Nix

      By Icege · Posted

      One has a proven, offensive-minded, Super Bowl winning head coach along with a top 5 OL + defense. He's being protected and getting the ball back not having to chase the other teams. The other had Frank Reich + Thomas Brown their rookie year with a bottom 5 defense as well as a bottom 5 OL that gave up the 2nd most sacks against a rookie QB ever. The sophomore season is being ran with a top 5 OL but also with a rookie HC (that has just one year of OC experience) and a bottom 5 defense still. The Broncos defense has allowed over 20pts just three times this season (26 vs. SEA (L), 23 vs. LAC (L), 41 vs. BAL (L)). Meanwhile, the Panthers have had ONE game where the defense gave up less than 20pts (vs. NYG (W)).   I'm not sure how folks couldn't expect Bo Nix to statistically perform better given their incredibly different situations. With that said, I didn't expect Nix to keep ascending as impressively as he has this season. Hopefully his arc will give other older college QBs a better shot, especially given the recent media blitz against the NFL regarding how development of the QB position in the league seems to be non-existent. Hopefully Bryce continues to improve as well, of course.

      Real Mid-Season Development at QB: Bo Nix

      By 7CLOWNS · Posted

      “You can learn a lot in 10 games,” Nix said. “[I’m] still learning, still growing, but just finding ways to execute the play that’s called, no matter what it is: run play, pass play. It doesn’t matter. Just finding the right way to go with the ball.” To that point, Nix noted how his developing partnership with head coach Sean Payton has helped Denver’s offense get to the next level. “To be honest, I think at the beginning, you kind of make the NFL bigger than what it actually is,” Nix said when asked where he feels he’s made the most strides. “These players are really good, but at the same time, you have really good players on your level. I think simplifying the game, trying to play as fast as possible, and finding a completion, which is what we’ve been able to do here recently. “I think as we’ve gone on, Coach and I have found a good rhythm of what we both like, what we can kind of put out there on the field, and what we can execute. Then the guys have kind of adapted to it, found our roles within the offense, and executed at a high level. It’s just all about slowing the game down and processing things in a manner that you can handle. Just kind of see one or two things, and let those guys take you to where the ball is supposed to be.” -Bo Nix From what I'm gathering regarding Bryce, the Panthers entered this season with a reset mindset. It's Young's rookie year, which explains the benching. Now, we're beginning to see the development of Canales and Young's offense. Slow development but we're winning 😃
