From the episode

Sam Darnold is Nate and I talked about this in the preview. He's just not seeing it well right now. He's not comfortable... 3.69 adjusted yards per attempt in this game for Sam Darnold. Not a good night... He rears his ugly head every now and again.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Darnold's 3.69 AY/A, 15 hits, and two bad INTs show he's uncomfortable in pocket.

Sam Darnold posted 3.69 adjusted yards per attempt in the Seahawks' overtime loss, was hit 15 times, took 5 sacks for 38 yards, and threw two egregious interceptions. The source notes Darnold had happy feet in the pocket all night, staring at open receivers downfield but failing to pull the trigger. His second interception in overtime was particularly inexplicable. The source attributes this to Darnold's discomfort and lack of confidence rather than offensive line play, though he was hit 15 times.
