I also think Darnold has been exposed a little bit you know having to do more on the offense. You know as it stands right now Sam Darnold is uh 23rd in the NFL in EPA per play as a quarterback. You know worse than Jacobe Brassette.

Negative signalProjection

23rd in EPA/play, down from 10th in 2024; negative script risk

Sam Darnold has been 'exposed a little bit' and is currently 23rd in the NFL in EPA per play as a quarterback, worse than Jacoby Brissett. This represents a significant decline from 2024 when he ranked 10th in EPA per play. The source expresses concern about Darnold dropping back 40 times in games, suggesting negative game script risk for running backs.
