That OL is doing wonders for him lol. He's gotta get out of there

Not even close he's not even remotely ready for the NFL. His mechanics are poor. He can't read the field well and he's got a sloooow release.

People just like to parrot the status quo without understanding why. There are serious holes in Darnolds game.

He's not really that impressive in this game so far that's for sure. The weird thing is some of these college QBs put up all kinds of numbers in their career and they don't translate to the NFL for whatever reason. But then you get other QBs like Tom Brady who was just ordinary in college and is arguably now the best QB of all time.

Completing 70% of his passes right now...too bad he doesn't play D because they can't slow ND down.

Uh, NO Tom Brady was not ordinary at Michigan. His problem was he was looked at as being physically ungifted.
