When you think of Darnold just think of Dave Krieg, same but different, Dave could play and look like Dan Marino but less velocity on his passes, and then all of a sudden couldn't hold on to the ball. Darnold looks to be as elite as you need to be and then for no reason looks like his first start.

Seeing the same thing with CJ Stroud.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Stroud has won playoff games in 3 straight seasons, I mean, that's pretty good.

 

[glenwo2]

Yeah. Apples and Oranges, and all that.

I just want Sam to win his first.

then his 2nd.

and then....his third.

Regardless of what people think about Darnold, I think we can all agree that this team would be 0-18 with Milroe. And yes, I'm aware it's a 17-game season.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

This thread has nothing to do with Milroe. Keep up, brother

That certainly came out of left field.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Rat is cool, he just hates Milroe, and that's fine.

I have no love for Milroe either but that's only because I don't want him to replace Darnold as QB.

I'm sure Jalen is a chill dude himself.

"Darnold" was the seventh word I used, and I think it's a pretty enormous compliment to assert that we'd be 14 wins worse with another QB. Granted, that was Milroe. We probably would have been like 5-12 with Lock.

One of the most rediculous assessments of the game and how the niners might beat us is that Salah should go to a single high defense, stack the box to stop the run and dare Sam to win the game on his arm.

Yes. Please

When defenses played us that way, Sam was in the MVP conversation and putting up top 5 numbers.

If they do that, we will obliterate them through the air.

 

[Ad Hawk]

Of course, it's also possible he may throw a couple INTs with more, and deeper passing.

But if our defense can (and it should be able to) keep the 9ers from running up the score, it won't matter.

 

[glenwo2]

oh please...PLEASE, Saleh.....PLEASE stack the box.

I would love that.

 

[Runscott]

Well we'll see what Fangio does on Sunday. If he's not studying MM's game tape, then he's doing it wrong.

Purdy is like Russ in a way. Take away Russ' deep shots with 2-high safety, and you limit Russ since he didn't throw over the middle. Take away Purdy's intermediate middle and he won't beat you deep. In fact, he missed a wide-open Sky Moore deep on the left sideline that would have been a TD. But no one noticed.

Well, here's the NFL's opinion - the graphic they sent to get us excited about the Divisional round.

They may have no choice. Their run defense is horrid and the Seahawks dinged them for it in week 18. Now they might be without Ji'ayir Brown which hurts their secondary so it would be a two pronged destruction this Saturday night. I have a feeling that JSN is going to have a monster game like the ones we saw earlier in the season.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

I would love that.

That's what she said

where the hell is that 'huge groan' emoji?

Yeah, I was gonna say, that's exactly how JSN ate earlier this year, and now we've got Shaheed.

Please, PLEASE go single high, Saleh. Darnold will have 200 yards passing by halftime.

 

[glenwo2]

That's what she said

 

[hox]

If they do load the box, they'll definitely the shade their single safety over to JSN.

Shaheed is faster than any DB they have. We gotta take advantage of that.
