mykidsdad Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 I think this video is pretty well done, and the graphs at the end are very telling. Was it Josh or the franchise that made the difference or some magical combination? I'm not sure, but one thing is for sure: poor Sam Darnold is toast in New Jersey, and we have our guy! 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 I was talking with a Jets fan friend and he said he and his son were lamenting the Jets taking Darnold over Josh. He said his son told him “but dad it wouldn’t have mattered, the Jets would have ruined him also.” I said “maybe, but Darnold looks like the same guy as he did when I started paying attention to during his sophomore season in college and that was the when I realized I didn’t want him.” He agreed with that as well. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mykidsdad Posted December 15, 2020 Author Share Posted December 15, 2020 Anyone but Trevor. I think he may be the best QB in the division until training camp, then the Jets will ruin him...so there's that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAJBobby Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 (edited) I dont think that Darnold has the Desire and Want to (in order to get better). Is he putting the work it, his mechanics are still as bad as they were in USC. Take ANYONE but Fields (he will become the best QB in that class).

You GENUINELY believe that Fields will be better in the NFL than all other QB's in this class? If I knew you in real life, I would bet my house against you with that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A guy I work with has been scared for weeks that NE is going to toss the Jets game week 17. He said that the Jags would win/lose the tie breaker and take the first overall pick in the draft. Unsure if he is right on that, he is a Jets fan after all. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mykidsdad Posted December 15, 2020 Author Share Posted December 15, 2020 I can't imagine the Pats losing on purpose. But I think the math is right. A tie record, means the jags draft first. Trevor Lawrence > any QB since Manning. I hope I'm wrong. I'm a Clemson fan, so I'm biased, but I've been watching the kid more closely, too.

I do, put him on a team that builds around him you have another Josh Allen. Watch. Than again whoever the Jets draft at QB I will not care to much they will kill him as well.

Lawrence train of thought: do I get my money early, but risk career injury behind their OL or do I stay in school another year (some injury risk) and hopefully get a better situation To stay in, or come out early, is a tough call for Lawrence. Depends on his ability to tolerate delayed gratification. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on his ability to tolerate delayed gratification. I know the Jets suck but why go back to school and risk getting hurt. What if he has a bad year next season and isn't the #1 pick in 2022. To much $$$ to pass up. IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussie Joe Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Before the season started, in the face of overwhelming logic to the contrary, 99% of Jets fans were still doggedly saying that Darnold is better than JA.. Now they feel that they can change their tune when Darnold's replacement looms on the horizon... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why, they will ruin him just as they ruined Darnold. They ONLY way Lawrence gets a chance to become a franchise QB is if the fire the entire coaching staff and perhaps the GM. Then hire a great head coach / GM. Not easy to do when you look at Dallas, Detroit and other teams floundering for years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starr Almighty Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Sign Sam "Ghosts" Darnold to be Josh's backup 🤷🏻♂️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victory Formation Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Darnold would have been a better QB had he went to Buffalo but his ceiling would have been nowhere near what Allen’s is.. Allen would have been out of the league in 5 years had he went to the Jets.. Maybe Darnold would’ve been a fringe top 10 QB here.. maybe.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
