Team played hard. Just too many injuries. Announcers were fawning over Jackson all night. I’m sorry but I wasn’t that impressed. He will go the way of RG3 in a year. Defenses will figure him out. Is he better than Darnold? His team sure as hell is. If Darnold was on the Ravens and Jackson on the Jets.....guess what.... we would have been blown out anyways. Then throw in the idiot Gase factor and there you have it. Was it me, or did Darnold seem really pissed at Gase toward the end of the game? He kinda of dissed Gase.......
Happily, I just have a feeling (despite the idiot Johnson) Gase may be gone If Darnold isn’t playing good soldier, the idiot brothers have no choice .......
Not impressed? What game were you watching? Fast as hell (maybe the fastest in the NFL). Quick decision-maker. Accurate side arm delivery. Able to throw the ball a mile. What did I miss other than he overthrew a wide open TE for a TD on us when we had blown the coverage.

That kid's talent comes around once in a generation. Maybe. Problem is that they don't last long. Too much punishment running the ball constantly and taking hits. But right now? Jackson is an incredible athlete.

There's no question he's better than Darnold, by a lot. His passes are crisper and much more accurate. Hitting recievers in stride vs having the have to stop and wait, jump or dive for the ball is a big difference.
On the bright side, Darnold appeared to have had enough of Gase tonight. The interaction post interception seems to show Darnold telling Gase to fuck off..... The look on fales face was priceless and Bell was sitting watching closely and seemed to get a chuckle out of it. Hopefully this will be the straw that leads to Gase being shown the door, giving Darnold the opportunity to grow and hopefully realize his potential. Clip cuts off a few seconds too soon but it's all I can find.

Sam " go fuck youself "

David " no he didn't ?????"

Bell " get me some popcorn "

Jet fans " that's my QB !!!!!!!!"

I think Sam was pissed at himself for the bad throw. They seemed to continue the conversation in a much more civil tone.
What's funny is how many fans are trying to blame Daniel Brown for that play. Darnold and Gase both said that Darnold thought he saw something that wasn't there and that Brown ran the correct route.
I hope it escalates so Gase is gone, but I fear it wont

Reasonable offense apart from the Darnold int. Looking forward to what he can do with an O line in front of him. Vyncynt Smith is making a case for retention. Give Robbie a contract. Shame for our patchwork secondary that we have no pass rush, Jackson just had to put it up for an easy long completion. A few daft calls by Gase, onside kick in a game where you are so outclassed?

I'm sorry trading jerseys is one thing. Jerking off while waiting for the guy that just gave you a prison pounding is embarrassing. They look like 12 year old skanks waiting for Justin Bieber.

What ya missed was he was playing against a defense made up of 60% practice squad caliber players with zero pass rush Who wouldn’t look great in that situation ? You keep him contained and put some interior heat on him there is no way he sits back there and drops dimes all night All I’m saying is you put him on a shit team and he is no better than mayfield or Darnold

Point taken. After watching him play a couple times this season, I still believe Jackson is very impressive and a better athlete than Mayfield or Darnold. At least right now. What happens in the future I can't tell ya.

Lamar's looked good all year, not just last night.
There's a reason he's the favorite to win the MVP.
Our D has played very well this season, our O has been pretty bad. Flip the QBs and the success would flip. Not fully but we would be competing for a playoff spot and the Ravens are likely sitting with 7-8 wins looking for a wildcard.

Don't agree. Harbaugh has gone all-in for Jackson's style of play and they even have a similar backup. Put him in a conventional offense behind the weak Jets line and he is a lot less effective. Put Darnold behind the Ravens line (and coached by Harbaugh) and he is a playoff contender. Jackson is more athletic than Darnold, no question, but we have seen these players before and they have short spectacular careers until that big hit.

Watch them objectively and look at their ball placement. Watch how many times jet recievers have to wait on Darnold's ball vs Jackson hitting the recievers in stride. Often it's the difference between a TD or 3rd down.
The QB is the most important person on the field. Your coach, scheme and surrounding cast mean nothing if your QB can't deliver. Too often Sam has left points on the field multiple times in a game. He had as much time as Jackson and as many open recievers, Jackson is far more athletic allowing him to escape more but again, his ball is out much sooner and his placement much better. He consistently does what Darnold flashes. How many times did Darnold toss the ball up for grabs last night, same mistakes over and over.
Right now, in year 2 of their careers, Jackson is in another class. 2 or 3 or 5 years from now the roles may be reversed, I am hoping that's the case, but it's no contest right now. As far as the 1 hit, Darnold's the one constantly injured, any QB, in fact any player is one hit away from the end of his career.

You're right, he is a complete athlete but if he keeps getting hit hard he will end up like his backup.
His side arm throws are all natural talent...very difficult to teach that throw, you either can or you can't.

The announcers kept mentioning the spy technique would not be very effective against Jackson. Now...Defense is not my thing, but it seems to me the only way to stop him would be to have someone with the same speed shadow his every move.
