I would love to have Darnold here and Brissett GONE...I would be doing mental cartwheels.
Darnold would also have a chance to develop and mature here without crazy pressure. |

Didn't realize this until I saw him playing today, but Flacco has started the last 2 games for the Jets. Is Darnold hurt, or did he get benched?

He was injured in the Jets loss to Denver. He hurt his shoulder on a play in which he was sacked and thrown to the ground by a defensive player.

First sign of a Jets purge?
https://www.profootballrumors.com/20...-to-buccaneers They also took a big step forward toward the first pick in the 2021 draft, because two of their competitors (Giants/Falcons) both won their first games today, putting the Jets firmly in the driver's seat as the only remaining zero-win team. It should be an interesting few weeks for them. If they are planning to tank, it would be best for them to get rid of Darnold before the trading deadline. The question is whether the Colts would be interested and, for that matter, whether the Jets would be interested in trading him to the Colts - as that would be particularly embarrassing for the Jets given that the Colts essentially traded Darnold to them. |

Darnold is 3 years into the NFL. If he's not developed by now, then he's not going to. He sucks. You can blame the jets if you want, but good players will become good players despite a bad organization. He isn't any better now than when he was a rookie.

If they want to get him as a backup, that's fine. Maybe he defies those slim odds, but I wouldn't put the franchise in his hands and expect it. If we do that, we may just waste more years in QB hell. |

Brees - threw for 2108 yards, 11 TDs against 15 INTs Tannehill - threw for 3912 yards, 24 TDs against 17 INTs Favre - threw for 3303 yards, 19 TDs against 24 INTs Moon - threw for 2709 yards,, 15 TDs against 19 INTs Incidentally, you omitted Warren Moon from your analysis. In his third year, he threw for 3489 yards, with 13 TDs and a league-leading 26 INTs. He was also 30 by then, so he was probably not someone who appeared to have a bright future at the time. Ultimately, though, the point is that these players all underperformed at first, but later hit their stride - most of them with heir second team I'd also venture a guess based upon the W-L records of their teams during their first few years, that none of these guys had supporting players as dismally bad as Darnold does (Brees 2nd full year his team went 2-9 while he was QB, so maybe that year is close). |
