I seriously doubt we will use EITHER tag on Darnold after the season is over.. Unless he gets us into an NFCCG, or, let’s go all the way to winning the Super Bowl… Sam Darnold was/is a 1 year rental that dropped in our lap, after the “Corporate Choice” as, all in QBOTF, was injured in preseason. Management took a huge chance on Darnold. Why? Because anyone.. could see that mullet and hall were not going to be actually competitive, “ put butts in seats” leaders of the offense. Darnold was the best way they could have addressed the need for a QB with both ability, mobility, and the arm strength to make KOC’s offense work as designed. At $10,000,000 for one year, he was a steal. He works well in KOC’s system, so far. His accuracy and arm strength and MOBILITY to keep plays alive, is so far above the mediocrity that we have been comfortable with, in the past 6 years. Darnold has made our offense, truly dynamic. His ability to score and create, and salvage drives and milk the clock, has allowed our defense to rest, recover, review and recharge, leading to dominate performance. It all matters.. Let’s let the season play out before we start building statutes, sand castles, and houses of cards over players and coaches.
