Something that Geno, Darnold & Lock have in common, not one of them has ever won a playoff game.
Difference being I still have hope that Darnold won't repeat Geno's foibles.

Darnold has yet to disappoint me, as he has yet to take a single snap for the Seahawks. Let me have this modicum of joy and hope for just a while before you try to bring reality crashing down on me.

Reality is fluid.

It changes often.

So his "reality" won't end up being The reality.

Sam will be extra-motivated to prove that last season was more about HIM than it was about him throwing to Justin Jefferson.

Also, I imagine he would want to get another crack at the Playoffs to show he CAN win.

Everyone is tossing dirt on his playoff career at 0-1 (yes...0 and f*cking 1) claiming he can't win a big game but I'm going to say he will prove that stupid claim incorrect this coming season.

Your point?

Geno's on the latter end of his career and I doubt he'll be in the playoffs anytime soon again.

Sam has a better shot at it with the Hawks and will get another opportunity (THIS SEASON, IMO) to win one (and maybe a few more afterward)....

Milroe is THE GUY who gives us hope for a bright and shining future. He can be a game changer. Yes, Darnold is here to hold down the fort in the meantime, but Milroe is the one who can turn the corner and race down the stretch. Our staff took risks with nearly every pick, but I think this draft and the UDFA pickups amounts to a clear the bases grand slam home run.

Thanks for posting those videos! He seems to have a good attitude, positive dude, and humble in the Sense that he knows he needs to work. I also liked how he mentioned that he studied Purdy, Burrow and Geno. Those being the guys who execute the system, not the most creative ones. That is exactly what he needs to learn.
