Fantastic Half By Darnold

[NoGain]

SD is starting to win me over. That two play sequence (adjustment pass to Arroyo and long scramble) was the best little sequence from him I've seen so far this year. Sam is playing great tonight.

Was just going to post the same thing. Darnold playing lights out this half.

He’s a bit more than a game manager which is what a good QB means to me

And against a better defense than last week.

 

[GeekHawk]

151.2 passer rating right now.

This team is so different. Love everything about it.

Both the DPI pass and the Horton deep pass were great throws.

Darnold is playing excellent. He's helping other players play better. I was a doubter (I didn't think he'd suck, just this offensive talent wasn't that good) and I'm starting to believe.

Defense has been no slouch either. 3 points/half is pretty good D.

He's absolutely kicking butt tonight. Surprising the hell out of me.

“But Geno is better”

I was critical of him after game 1. Happy to eat crow since then. Hope he keeps it up.

 

[Ostatehawk]

That throw to Arroyo in the end zone was ridiculously good.

[hugecanoli]

Dude’s got a 140 passer rating going into the half.

The few misses were still dead on.

Dont forget, we could have been up by another 3 or 7 if we didn’t muff the first INT.

The guy is playing within the system and our running game hasn’t even taken off yet.

180 from last year.

“But Geno is better”

Said no one, who isn’t related to Geno. Even Chip secretly wishes the raiders had signed Darnold instead.

I heard that a lot here in the offseason and last season here.

 

[Double Tribble]

He's growing on me too. He looks dynamic, in control, and is showing some surprising athleticism at times. It's still early, but it's looking like we may have a legit franchise qb on our hands. What do you all think?

 

[dbsn2420]

I was not expecting him to play as well as he has. He has great command of this offense, now we just need to find a consistent run game and crank it up!

No, I meant now. Yeah I saw it also during the summer.
