"Sam's playing out of his mind right now," coach Mike Macdonald said. "You see him, he's just such a cool customer. But he's a guy on a mission. He's so determined for us to be a great team and a great offense, and he's doing a great job leading us."

He does look confident out there. Its obvious he's got all the tools, he really does. So far, so good for Sam in Seattle.

Only caught the last quarter and a half of the game but Darnold was dropping dimes.

Good for him, but its still September, the real test is what happens when they start playing games with the media paying attention?

Would be easier to still cheer for his success if it wasn't with the seabitches.

....and really, that's the truth of it. I on one hand really appreciate his talent as a passer and on the other hand, as I said at the end of last year, I want a QB that is clutch and doesn't shit the bed. That's my hope of what JJ is. Darnold hasn't changed any narratives, but he can't until he's in that situation again against really good teams in very meaningful games/playoffs. 

My post on this is to really just marvel at his talent. My opinion is he'll still come up short when it counts as I don't think he's clutch when its really important.
