Former NFL QB Makes Bold Seahawks Claim After Sam Darnold Injury

An NFL analyst wondered if losing quarterback Sam Darnold this Sunday will really hurt the Seattle Seahawks.

An NFL analyst predicts that Seattle Seahawks might improve their chances of winning against the Arizona Cardinals after Sam Darnold, their starting quarterback, suffers a quad injury. Quarterback Ben DiNucci expressed his belief on CBS Sports' Just Football, stating that Drew Lock might be a better choice for the quarterback position.

Darnold has struggled this season, throwing nine interceptions in seven games and seeing his quarterback rating drop from 99.1 to 79.5. In contrast, Lock led Seattle to a season-opening comeback victory and then excelled with a road win against the same Cardinals team Darnold will face. DiNucci noted that if Lock continues to perform well, it could lead to a quarterback controversy within the team.
