Darold is a turnover machine

Which is why he's here, and will be starting QB through 2026 given the state of the upcoming draft. Best of a bunch of bad options.

But that doesn't mean I want him playing just well enough to merit an extension, but poorly enough to where we pass up the good draft options when they do come.
If Darnold can't shake these mental issues, we just might see Lock or Milroe beat him out. Might sound funny now but if he can't fix this it won't be funny anymore.

That would still be a downgrade. Drew Lock and that other guy aren't going to do any better against all this blitzing without run support.

That's fair to say also. It's not all on Sam but he's not helping his case. Kubiak needs to get smacked and start planning for quick passes, screens, and hard counts when HE KNOWS HE'S GOING AGAINST BLITZ-HEAVY TEAMS.

Everybody else on the team is ready to do it..except Sam. It would seem that would sink into his head

He's done a lot of good second-half adjustments this year. Let's see if he can manage again.

With this defense, all he has to do is not turn the damn ball over.

Just be serviceable and we should win games.

Not the jump pass.

He just needs a couple of plays to get that confidence going…maybe that long run he just had does it.
