You won’t agree but, by 2027..this guy will be our starter

[GemCity]

Milroe.

Calling it now. Jordan Love treatment.

I’m not saying I don’t like Sam. But, he appears to absolutely have an issue with cracking under pressure. Leading the league in turnovers is a serious thing.

It’s not his ability. It’s not his arm. He has a cannon.

It’s 100% mental.

This is my unprofessional, armchair QB take but I’m really starting to believe it. His confidence is lacking.

Our D will carry us but come playoff time, if Sammy D can’t get it together, MM and the FO will have some things to fix.

I’ve seen drew lock play great football and tbh nothing can be worse than Sam right now except Howell.

 

[HawkinNY]

This is why Minn went with a rookie basically because they saw what Sam does under pressure. Maybe one day he will figure it out. But wasting the talent on this team isn’t worth keeping him past this year.

Milroe will have time to develop. Kubiak has thrown him to some shitty situations and thus, many got down on him.

Agreed though…Lock is solid.

I just love his (Milroes ) situation.

He’s nowhere near the QB Sam or Lock are but, I suspect we’ll get him where he needs to be.

 

[MontanaHawk05]

Milroe is a ball security problem, too.

 

[Chukarhawk]

Love you Gem but Milroe will never be starter in the NFL.

 

[Cyrus12]

Love you Gem but Milroe will never be starter in the NFL.

Agreed

 

[Followthelegion]

Very much an unrealised potential guy is Milroe - could be anything ( high ceiling; low floor). Will just have to see how he develops. Sam hardly looks the answer post contract ends at the moment

 

[hugecanoli]

Hope we draft the kid from Penn State. Drew Aller.
He went out mid season with an injury but he’s huge and has a cannon.

I’m about 90% there. The common feedback that I’ve scoured the net for was that Sam cracks under pressure.

I was like ‘eh..every NFL game is pressure’. Maybe Minnesota felt like they HAD to play JJ as he was drafted so high??

But, it is what it is until it’s not. Right now, it’s starting to look like it’s exactly that way.

 

[flv2]

Maybe. Maybe not. I don't really want to talk about Milroe and 2027 during a 2025 game.

I’ve tried to stay even keeled with Sam but it looks like the experiment is not working. I am thankful the teammates are not throwing him under the bus, but you cannot waste this defense by protecting the QB. We tried that before…

 

[GemCity]

Love you Gem but Milroe will never be starter in the NFL.

I feel like he’s got a bad wrap due to those gadget play situations that Kubiak put him in.

We’ll see.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not betting $$ on this claim

There is no question that it is mental. Like many golfers he needs a personal shrink.

 

[NoGain]

It's pretty apparent to me that Sam is a mental mess now.

 

[GemCity]

5-11. Sacked twice. INT. 16.1 rating with 1 minute left before the half.

 

[whidbeast]

I'm okay with that but seriously y'all need to stop it with Drew Lock

 

[GemCity]

Not the jump pass again…

 

[BChawkfan]

Agreed

3rd string at best

 

[HawkinNY]

By then this team will lose half its talent to new teams. Hope he does work out next year. Because Darnold isn’t it.
