    Yeah well we’re experts at knowing what a dysfunctional organization looks like.

    Huge wind gusts in the forecast and temps in the 40s. Let’s see how Sam handles the elements for the first time.

    Rosen’s (former) OC was fired after that last game. That same (former) OC was also fired after a game by his prior team (the Broncos) LAST season.

    Let’s not write Rosen off just yet. He’s in a terrible situation. That said, his face annoys me.

    Look at his reaction to the opening pick 6 hahaha. Ice in his veins while everyone around him is losing their mind. “Good way to start.”

    Injuries, bad snaps, dropped passes, plus Sam has just looked bad at times. But we expected this, right? Ups, downs, and growing pains.

    I didn't expect this many bad snaps. We badly need a new C.

    No, none of us did. I was referring to Sam's general game to game play.

    How long before we get "can Darnold play in cold/bad weather?" Posts, articles, wfan calls?

    Contrary to the obvious numbers I still think he played well enough to win this game, had the rest of the offense helped a little.

    Let's face it, the line played terrible for the most part

    Quit blaming the line. Darnold had more than enough time today to throw. This is on him and the lack of receivers.

    Lol really? How many times was he sacked? How many pressures? How many shitty snaps? No holes for running game. Yes, he had an off game, yes there were a ton of drops. But how much of that bad game wasn't because his pocket collapsed?
    I'm sorry, but I wholeheartedly disagree.

    He had a few bad throws. But to blame this game on him is just not accurate.

    He had numerous dropped passes. He had one bounce into a defenders hands off the chest of Peak. He had ZERO receivers. Hell, one of his receivers today was our punt returner. He had to handle numerous horrible snaps.

    You can put blame on him for some of the mess ups, including some bad decisions, but if you think the receivers and center didn't lose this game, you weren't watching the same game

    Darnold's numbers look worse than he actually was, and Mayfield's numbers look better than he actually was. The one of the four QBs who had the best week was Josh Allen.

    Darnold can’t get it done against good defenses. Gonna be a long rest of the season

    When you drop back to pass a ton and have no receivers open and hold until they get open, you’re going to have sacks and pressures. The line itself was overall fine. Majority of the blame goes to a running back playing at 50% healthy and receivers. Darnold probably missed at least 8 throws today where he had guys open but hey it happens. The line today in pass blocking was the least our worries
