"We’ve got his back, and if you’ve got anything to say, quite frankly, f--- you.”

After Sam Darnold's worst performance by far with the #Seahawks, Ernest Jones had some strong words to reaffirm the team's support of the embattled quarterback.

Holy cow... What a punt. Rams pin the #Seahawks at their own one-yard line on 50-yard punt. Sam Darnold has to drive team to field goal range in 1:41 with one timeout.
