Darnold played like ass. This is exactly why you dont pay him.
Dude stared down 2 wide open WRs in the EZ tonight.

Coaches weren't any better either. Terrible play calling. No adjustment to speak of

Yeah we werent very good against the blitz and do absolutely nothing to counter it.
Darnold hangs in the pocket for forever. Half of the time I expect him to get blown up like Malik Willis did yesterday.

Willis got f***ing crushed. Beautiful hit, like the Van Ginkel on Gibbs early on.

Minnesota has a long history of shitting the bed in prime time games. And now we get the Rams and Stafford on Monday Night.
Darnold looked like a deer in the headlights all night.

Yep. Also goes to show why Willis is a backup. He had no awareness that a guy was screaming in on him from his NON-blind side.
The refs saving Goff from the safety was one of the worst calls I’ve ever seen. Just blatant disgusting interference from the officiating crew

He basically spiked the ball into the turf as he was being tackled in the pocket. It was such a text book intentional grounding I almost spat my beer out when the ref started babbling

Right, and I know that the TV ref also said it was probably grounding, but I thought all that was nullified if there was a receiver in the area and Gibbs was right there (because he missed the block).
I don’t think Gibbs was remotely “in the area” given that Gibbs was already behind him when he releases the ball forward into his lineman’s feet.
Upon replay the ball hit an OL so never had a chance to get close to any eligible receiver.
Darnold with a bad game. Plus KOC didn’t compensate for him being off. Too much relying on Darnold in the goal to go situations.
The loss is doubly tough as their WC game is Monday, so in the event they do advance it’s a short week to potentially the bye week lions unless one of Washington or GB also pulls an upset. Not to mention the travel back home from a MNF time game.
Gibbs was behind who??? Surely you’re not saying he was behind Jared Goff. A person saying that clearly needs glasses:
Turn that camera parallel to the play and it’s very close. He doesn’t throw the ball anywhere near him as evidence by the fact it hit the f***ing feet of his lineman standing a long ways from Gibbs
You used the worst possible angle and it does not show any definitive proof that Gibbs is behind Goff. You also said when Goff released the ball, yet used a frame where the ball is basically on the ground already. I’d say stick to hockey takes, but I don’t want to overburden posters here. Maybe pick up soccer?Clearly see the ball about to hit the foot of the lineman and Gibbs is behind Goff. Not much to argue here unless you’re a packers fan still needing a welfare check

Close is subjective. I've definitely seen receivers further away be considered "in the area".

I wouldn't care if they didn't call that Intentional Grounding, IF they didn't call nearly the exact same thing on Darnold.
