Darnold's Seahawks: Top 12 QB Room, Super Bowl Champs

0:00On April 1st, Sam Darnold led the Seattle Seahawks to a Super Bowl win last season, but now he's ranked 12th in quarterback rooms by fancited, analyst Christopher Klein. That puts Darnold, Drew Lock, and Rookie Jalen Milro behind spots like the Chargers, Bears, and Lions. Despite the championship, some not Darnold for leaning on a strong defense and special teams in key games. Darnold still finished 4th in passing yards and 7th in completion percentage league wide. Seattle lacked elite receivers, beyond Jackson Smith and Jigba, or the top offensive line, so he carried a solid load. Critics point to his average stats in three big wins, but the numbers show he stacked up well overall. Fans and analysts debate this hard, especially Seahawks supporters who see Darnold as underrated. Compared to Justin Herbert, Darnold topped most stats and nailed playoffs while Herbert sits as zero wins there. Caleb Williams impressed in one year, but Darnold's two straight strong seasons edge

1:00amount. Jared Goff mirrors Darnold's path, yet lacks that Super Bowl ring. Nure looks reveal little link between top QB rooms and titles. Last year's champ ranked 12th, the year before even lower at 16th for Jalen Hertz. Half the top 10 QB groups missed playoffs and playoff teams averaged 14th overall. Seattle defends in the NFC Westpiece mode, facing top rank rams and others, plus lost pieces and slim draft picks. Still, that QB room holds strong at 12th or better, keeping champs in the hunt.
