"I am really excited to see Sam Darnold, finally in a good situation," Palmer said. "Stats are stats, numbers are numbers, but I think it's hard to argue, he's been in tough spot after tough spot after tough spot, impossible to succeed type spots." He went deeper into the specific expectations that he has for Darnold, mentioning how a playoff run could be tough based on the strength of the NFC North division. Palmer highlighted O'Connell's time with Matthew Stafford and Jared Goff but said that they did not have the same skillset as Darnold.
