Just finished watching 17 minutes of Boomer ( what grown-up is still called Boomer?) and Gio on WFAN absolutely ball-washing Darnold. I think Darnold will be pretty good down the line, but these guys, especially Boom-Boy, are ridiculous about Darnold.
The Jete really would have been better off in the long run keeping and starting Bridgewater, and having Darnold sit for a year. But that's not the Jete Way. Bridgewater seems likely to have been able to win more games for them this season, but starting Darnold (no matter how unready he is) has a more immediate impact on ticket sales and TV ratings, which are both more important to Jete ownership.
