I don't think darnold should come out this year. He is too inconsistent in the pocket. Sometimes he gets happy feet, sometimes his footwork gets sloppy. You can tell he isn't always comfortable in the pocket. I think another season at USC would really help him.

I totally agree. Rosen's problem is a lack of talent around him. Lansley is finally turning into a decent receiver, but it has taken a while. After losing his top receiver to injury (TE Caleb Wilson,) the receiving has been inconsistent, the running game has stalled and the UCLA defense has been nothing short of pathetic this year, especially the run defense, ranking 129th out of 130 teams. I'm really surprised they kept this game close. I was expecting USC to hang 50 on the Bruins.

Darnold needs to go back to school. He shows great leadership, but a mix of poor reads, turnovers and sloppy mechanics is very concerning. He'd do himself a service by returning to school.
