We definitely wouldn't be 15-1 with Darnold as our QB, probably more like 10-6 or worse.

Purdy is much more reliant on his surrounding talent than either Cousins or Darnold, imo. Darnold just needed good coaching, more than anything.
I mean, yeah, Darnold wouldn't have led KC to 15 Ws this season, but with Andy coaching him, manufacturing touches for Worthy, DHop, Travis and Hunt, he would've been able to do at least as well as Alex's 10 Ws/season, more than likely.
