Another one falls into the trap that is Sam Darnold

Everyone thinks they can fix Darnold.  He does throw a nice ball, but unfortunately often to the other team or over the head of the receiver.  

This is like when some women fall in love with bad boys thinking they'll be the ones to reclaim them and make them husband material again.  Darnold is who he is.  He has limited processing ability (probably scored an 18 on the S2 test), no composure under pressure, can't throw receiver open to save his life.

If anyone can is Shannahan. 

And to be honest, I hope he does. I liked Sam. He had to play with 2 shitty teams. 

I'm not rooting against him I'm just not buying it.  He won't have more success than Purdy or Garoppolo because he just doesn't have it mentally.

Steve Wilks had Sam Darnold looking like a legit starting QB and we didn't have the 49ers roster.

 

People are crazy if they think Darnold won't succeed with the 49ers. Going to go out on a limb and say he will be the QB the entire season. Every QB they plug in that system succeeds because of the talent around them.

 

How can you fail surrounded by CMC/Kittle/Deebo/Trent Williams?

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me thrice, shame on 49ers! 

 

Did you see Sam Darnold once we fired Rhule?

 

Cmon man this dude looked like a decent starter last year.

I don’t have high hopes on the Sam Darnold  reclamation project but hope to be pleasantly surprised. Seems like a good dude and a good teammate. I just think his ceiling is competent backup. And to echo your thoughts, yes he is in as good of a situation that he can be in.

Will he succeed in SF?  I say it's very likely.  Did he look like a legit starter here?  No.  Watch the Steelers game.

No, he played like a legitimate backup and put up backup like numbers.  He can't be relied on to carry the team but surrounded by all the talent, he'll have a decent season.  I just don't think it's good enough for the 49ers, they want to be a SuperBowl contender and Darnold can't be counted on for that.

      I thought it was going to be OBJ vs JNO all over again at one point in the game.

      Forget about Bryce, Dave Canales is who we should be talking about.

      The defense was gutted to pay for the offense that couldn’t score 30. My assessment occurs in the proper context because I can keep two thoughts in my head at once   the defense was exhausted in the 4th quarter against the best qb in the league, and that’s the defenses fault? Meanwhile the chiefs defense gave up a game tying ref assisted 48 drive after not giving up a first half touchdown and somehow that’s all because of Bryce’s play?  Consistency is not a difficult concept.

      My Personal Takeaway from This Game vs Cheifs

      By Peon Awesome · Posted

      You know it's interesting, I felt the same. For me, in part, in those 2 wins it kind of felt like those teams were mostly beating themselves and the Panthers were fortunate beneficiaries of their ineptitude. I felt perhaps more amusement at watching these other teams dysfunction than genuine happiness by the Panthers performance. Meanwhile for this Chiefs game, the Panthers rose to the occasion and nearly muscled out a win against a super talented team that wasn't making stupid mistakes. I was legitimately proud of the Panthers this week. It felt like for the first time in a while, we earned some real respect.
