New York Jets QB Sam Darnold’s strong game overshadowed by loss

Things are going to click for Sam Darnold sooner or later. He has far too much talent to be a bust, but he’s not quite ready to lift a team as bad as the New York Jets are right now. Darnold was the sixth-highest rated quarterback in Week 2 according to Pro Football Focus. However, the Jets were still dismantled 31-13 at the hands of the San Francisco 49ers.

Sam Darnold earned a 86.2 grade in Week 2, making him the #Jets highest graded player of the week and the NFL's 6th highest graded QB of the week.
