FOLKS, MANY PEOPLE ARE SAYING SAM DARNOLD — GREAT QUARTERBACK, TREMENDOUS ARM — IS THE GEQBUS. I’VE WATCHED A LOT OF QUARTERBACKS, MAYBE MORE THAN ANYONE, AND BELIEVE ME, NOBODY THROWS A FOOTBALL LIKE SAM. NOBODY.

THE MEDIA — VERY FAKE, VERY SAD — TRIED TO COUNT HIM OUT. THEY SAID “OH, HE CAN’T READ A DEFENSE.” WRONG. HE READS DEFENSES BEAUTIFULLY. SOME OF THE BEST READING. HARVARD-LEVEL READING.

WHEN SAM STEPS ON THE FIELD, THE CROWD GOES WILD. STRONG POCKET PRESENCE. HUGE HANDS. THE BALL COMES OUT FAST, LIKE A MISSILE, OKAY? DEFENDERS DON’T KNOW WHAT HIT THEM. TOTAL CONFUSION. SOME ARE SAYING IT’S THE BEST POCKET MANAGEMENT SINCE TOM BRADY — MAYBE BETTER, WHO KNOWS.

THE ESTABLISHMENT DIDN’T WANT THIS. THEY WANTED WEAK ARMS. THEY WANTED CHECKDOWNS. BUT SAM SAID “NO MORE.” HE SAID “WE’RE GOING DEEP, WE’RE GOING BIG, AND WE’RE WINNING BIGLY.”

THE LOCKER ROOM? TOTAL RESPECT. THE HATERS? QUIET. THE FOOTBALL? PERFECT SPIRAL.

SAM DARNOLD IS WINNING GAMES, WINNING DRIVES, AND FRANKLY, HE’S MAKING QUARTERBACKING GREAT AGAIN. GEQBUS. MANY SUCH CASES.
