Darnold flamed out with the Jets and Panthers, so what has KOC done to rehabilitate his career?

      Jets fan here. I think something KOC fixed that's underrated is Darnold's confidence. A young QB should not be thrown to the wolves, especially with no support system. QBs need to sit, let's take our cues from the Packers. Unfortunately, throwing them to the wolves is the Jets' signature move. Darnold is a great dude who I am happy to see find success.

      ​@@ledgnr197gaming5there was a stat last year for Trevor that said he was pressured on 43% of dropbacks on throws between 2.5-4 seconds. It was worse than Daniel Jones. Seems the Jaguars organization wants to move on. I couldn't see any other reason why the media has turned against him

      @monog762 Yeah and his play caller is so bad. Press Taylor has single handedly ruined and already middling rushing attack and draws up some truly horrendous passing concepts. Sure, Trevor is not holding up his end, but a lot of qbs get kinda broken in situations like this. Needs a new O-Line and playcaller and I think he gets back to form.

    So if Sam just continues to play through the scheme and limit the forced throws it’s NFC championship game at minimum. Especially depending on how they look against Green Bay this Sunday. Also he’s been doing this with out Addison and Hockenson.

    I think Sam was decent in 2021 and was beginning to figure it out, and it was just a matter of time when he'd get to lead a capable offense. Bad string of luck having to play for the Jets and Panthers, and for the Panthers to bring in another hungry QB and fire their coach when it should have been your year. I love rubbing it in all my friends faces that I "called" the Sam Darnold turnaround.

    That’s why if Darnold goes to a different team next year, he needs a good coach. I think he would fit in LA with McVey. I fear he goes to a bad team and he will regress.

    Not to be a smarty pants, but why don’t teams try cover 2 invert. Wouldn’t it bring both safeties into the box having both outside corners playing each deep half? And wouldn’t it also take the outside corners out of the run fit?

    I love how all the UA-cam and National Media Jabroni’s are conveniently omitting that Darnold is doing this against 1) The NFC representative from last years Super Bowl and a popular pick to represent the AFC in this years Super Bowl, and 2) Jordan Addison missed both games against the aforementioned power teams, and TJ Hockenson a pro bowl caliber Top 5 NFL tight end has not played yet… This team, this scheme, this coach and QB combo are going to be almost impossible to stop when those two join the fun… Sam Darnold is benefiting now from a team structure that some other QBs have been spoiled in…

    The beginning of his run with Carolina was actually just fine imho
    Then he got sacked like 6 times in 2 games straight and he was "seeing ghosts" after-- which I attribute to him being unable to trust his line and offensive scheme.
    He always just needed a fair shot.

    • @xophaser
      @xophaser Годину тому

      I think KOC (the main reason here) is a better offensive coach that can adjust and use darnold physical talent. Joe Brady in carolina ran the same scheme and teams figured him out and he was fire. The same scheme he ran a year before. plus talent and players. cmc went down and the run game and darnold safety net was gone. They traded his te too. Good point, see if darnold can beat a good green bay on the road.

      He is using another team’s back up qb to run that team’s 2023 offense with a former 1st round pick. If they give him that award then Shanahan (the innovator of this offense) who won with his 3rd string last pick in the draft was the one who was the biggest snub in NFL history.
