I want to run and use play action 

I don't want up tempo.

I want a 60/40 run/pass ratio 

So basically you’re a caveman?

Up tempo hurts your defense and gives guys like Mahomes, Brady, Burrow more possessions.

That's not a great recipe

You mean you turn it over to other up tempo offenses?

Doesn't that go for any style Offense?

If you execute in an uptempo offense yes you can score but your D wears out just as bad as a run team that doesn't score and gets 3 and outs.

Up tempo is definitely a double edged sword.

You can have a balanced offense that keeps the other team off the field.

We really need to leave the Rhule trash by the side of the road where it belongs. 

Neither Rhule nor Wilks had anything to offer Darnold when it came to QB training or experience.  Frank Reich has it in spades, with an astounding history of getting the most out of underperforming QBs.   

Now, I'm no Darnold fan, not by a long shot, but I do acknowledge that Frank Reich is likely better qualified  to determine whether Sam is worth retaining than anyone who happens to be posting in this forum.

Agree to disagree. Darnold is trash. Don’t my want his ass on my team anymore. Hopefully Reich and co is smart enough not to have anything to do with him. Which I think they are. Darnold has shown nothing since he has been in the league. 
I don’t understand why any Panthers fan wants him back. But we do like mediocrity and going back to stuff that doesn’t work. So I am not surprised people seem to think Darnold will STILL work out despite 5 years showing he won’t.

Any offense that goes 3 and out repeatedly hurts your defense including your precious Foxball scheme that the Panthers have used forever.

Just because a team runs an up tempo offense, doesn't mean they're going to score in 60 seconds or go 3 and out, and be right back off the field.

Watch college and high school football. All that running QBs/RPO/spread stuff that you hate is not only where the game is, it's where the NFL continues to slowly move to as well.

It all sucks. It's terrible football and the only reason it's moving it's way in is because HS and college coaches being lazy about their job.

Kids are coming into the nfl unable to run a real offense.

Football is a kids' game. The spread/rpo stuff is just as legit an offense as playing under center. It's just different.

Just to be clear, I'm not advocating that we keep Darnold.  He simply doesn't appear to have the capacity to read and react with the proficiency required by QBs in today's NFL.  That said, Reich should be given the benefit of the doubt should he decide to retain Darnold on the roster.

Pretty sure the playoffs were all young qb's with top ranked offenses
