The Rich Eisen Show: Giddy about the Jets

It was a crazy 5 drives. Means nothing this week.
Hope he's more of a true Green New Yorker.
Rich is leery about getting excited. I just want Darnold to get better as season goes. He only passed for 198 yards and 2 TDs. Sam will need to be able to pass for 300 yards plus and 3 TDs. Wait till run game is stopped and Defense isnt holding the other team to 20 points and the entire game is all on Sams arm to win. That will be a better look how good he will be under that type of game. Even losing a game on a INT and how he handles it. Sam has a long way to go guys before we crown him Jets Hero. So far Im very impressed on his composure after throwing a INT and getting sacked and still keeping it together not panicking and still able to read Defenses. Lot of good in that first game to take away from. But still a lot of questions still out there. One is Weather when ball is hard as a rock and wet with wind. Will he be able to pass good or wear gloves? Hope Jets deflates the ball to lowest for him.
You can cross off throwing in the rain from your list of worries. His entire pro day at USC was conducted in a downpour. You can google it or check it out on YouTube. Sam was given the option to postpone his workout until the rain stopped, but said, "No, I'm good." I have watched the entire YouTube video. He was throwing darts and bombs.
