I have never bought into the idea that a team would tank a game or season.
These players and coaches are being evaluated every game. To think that players would sacrifice future employment and contracts because they have a chance to draft a guy next season is absolutely ridiculous.

Fans... lol
The players and coaches are certainly trying to win.
But the roster is not designed to win because it is littered with ordinary players. And that is on purpose.
At least in regards to Allen, he certainly throws a more catchable ball than him. Allen just rifles shots into his receivers from 5 yards out. One of those throws resulted in the bobble INT.
we’re 17 games into darnold’s career now and he still looks rather ordinary to me. He’s got ability and can be a pro qb but I don’t get all the hype as if this kid is a clear cut star in the making. It’s mostly jets media noise.
I normally wouldn’t take this guy’s temperature but the media driven narrative that attacked the giants for passing on darnold left me no choice. To me darnold has already failed to live up to the hype, not rational hype but the way the media and fan base killed the giants you’d think this was a can’t miss, sure fire pro bowl qb. Darnold is not that. He’s got a ways to go.

Wait 17 games is enough? Js...
You missed the point. I said I normally wouldn’t judge this guy so soon. Also said he’s likely gonna be a solid pro.
What I did say was so many people killed the giants for passing on this so called can’t miss near perfect qb prospect. They set themselves back years i was told. All bullshit. Darnold was never a cant miss sure thing at qb. And Barkley was. And it’s on full display for all to see.
Never said darnold was a finished product. And you know that.
Jones is every bit the qb prospect Darnold was and is. You’re splitting hairs if you insist otherwise, in darnold’s favor.
Honestly, Darnold has been better than I thought that he would be, but I'm not so impressed with him. He's a great improviser ala Favre, but that's pretty much it.
at least wait until the end of this year before making any conclusions about Darnold. Even those would just be tentative. Same for Josh Allen. Jones hasn't even taken a snap in a regular season game.

Well, want to see what Jones is in real games for 2 seasons or little more. The qb (according to reports if true, and McAdoo wanted) was Mahomes. If true on that then that's the real crime not Darnold

Today’s media/fans so often overlook the oline.
Not us. Not after the last 7 fucking years lol.

Instead, they keep getting the ball batted down.
But I don't so I'll just lie here on my sofa, despise each one of those shmegeggea and wait for the Giants game
Eagles too
I had the same thought. That would be hilarious.
It's the first half. Even if it wasn't, these are professionals and millionaires, they can handle it.

Loving the boo birds in Cleveland
Here he makes a few nice cuts that went nowhere and the whole D was corralling him. And another OMG!!! reaction when nothing's happening

Look at the touch on this pass while falling off his back foot.
Their ol is getting abused for most part
