Vikings' Sam Darnold is QB1 over JJ McCarthy entering minicamp | Pro Football Talk | NFL on NBC
/ nflonnbc - กีฬา
Panther fan, always luved Darnold...No tight end...no blocking ..traded McCaffrey ...and asked to play with a separated shoulder ..and he did ...He will finally silence the Na sayers ...Knock em Dead Sammy ...Im with u ..
He might be marginally better here than he was with Carolina, but he has flaws that transcend the talent (or lack thereof) around him. Only the most delusional Vikings homers think that he’ll light it up this season.
@@ElJefe0719only the most delusional homer doesn't understand the concept of a talented player on bad teams.
@@srobeck77 and what would your thoughts on Darnold be say he had signed with the Bears or Packers??
@@ElJefe0719 same thoughts, but Bears have a rookie coming in with a much higher ceiling potential. I'm not sold on Love just yet because he was awful the first half of the season.
Good post
So many fans don't realize everything that transpired during Darnolds time in the NFL.
Sam Darnold starting for a few games is the best thing that could happen for JJ McCarthey
Hopefully Sam Can Help The Purple Win a Super Bowl👍😎
few games? JJ won't be ready until at least a year or more... please don't comment of you know nothing of football
@@TH-camChan.-gv8ptAre you on the coaching staff😂😂? Where did you get your info
@@banksda150 it's common sense... use it sometimes... it's not rocket science
@@TH-camChan.-gv8pt Bruh what, the team hasn’t even put on pads yet 😂 If JJ outperforms Sam in camp and hits his benchmarks to start this year then he will most definitely start sooner then later
I'm cautiously optimistic considering Darnold has only started on awful teams so far in his career. He was an elite talent coming out of college and he's the age you'd expect a QB to come into his own. As long as he's not turning the football over multiple times a game, the Vikes will have a chance with a seemingly improved Flores defense.
Chris rocking the Vikings purple 💜 strong look chris strong
is this project runway?
@@w00deey12yes. Did you not listen to Mike at the end bring up Minnesota playing against the Giants in their BeAuTiFuL new throwbacks?
@@thecatwrangler9448 yall take pride month too far 😂😂😂😂
There is no rush to start McCarthy. I won't mind if he starts QB3 to start the season. Not due to performance, but to keep him from being 1 play away from being inserted.
Sam is a veteran. He was well liked in SF. Let JJ learn a bit from a veteran. That will help him.
Love the purple on Simms
I would love to see sam darnold have 4000 yard 30 touchdown season
So would Sam. He's hot garbage. Good for 4 starts. That's it.
@@whatwouldezradonah
I bet money we will.
@@whatwouldezradoyour "hot take" is beyond hot garbage and moved into steaming pile of poo 💩 territory. Grats fella, it's quite difficult to have this much of a cringe hot take, but u made it.
Hoping Darnold gets 17+ starts this year. Plays to his best caliber and gets PAID in the off-season. Let JJ fix any technique issues and learn from the bench.
It’s amazing that the six-year veteran still has the higher ceiling than the rookie… If Sam stays healthy, he is far and away the better quarterback over JJ McCarthy. If you watch film of Sam Donald from college, to pro, and JJ McCarthy‘s last two years in Michigan, you can see that Sam Dan has always been more proficient in some of the little intricacies of the position, regarding touch, timing, anticipation, feel for the pocket,making off platform throws. JJ McCarthy has a lot of physical gifts, and is hyper athletic with a whip for an arm, but some of the things he struggles with, like anticipating windows opening, throwing the ball before the receiver, makes their breaks downfield, not trying to play hero ball… I think he needs some major development, even then as a Viking fan, his ceiling compared to Jordan love and Caleb Williams is being the third best quarterback in division… And no team has ever been consistent contenders with the third best quarterback in their division… Will be happy to watch him for a year, hopefully so, since Sam Donald can be reckless with the football and has injury concerns. But more likely than not, he will be playing.
you have no idea what JJ's ceiling is bro.
Love is so overrated lmao he is gonna be Mac jones 2.0
@@Win7ermu7e Did you watch the film?
@@Bigruss323 LOL. He’s already 2x better than jones. When you have a good season and you are a high-level talent, rather than a mid talent like jones, it tends to last. Someone already to argue with me that Love wouldn’t last, the only time a player has had season like that over the last 15 years and couldn’t duplicate it was Nick Foles. Chip Kelly aside, he’s a mid talent.
I realize that this is the time of year where the media needs stories and topics so they nit pick everything but this is absolutely a non-story. Nothing to read from a rookie with less than 2 months into his tenure with the team not being the starter not even into training camp yet. This is exactly why coaches 'coach speak' all the time because news outlets make a story out of everything.
ur in denial
@@w00deey12 I'm not a Vikings fan
@@sahranisworld no matter how true that is.... being a JJ McCarthy apologist makes it look as though you don't know ball
@@w00deey12 not sure there's anything to 'apologize' for. The guy hasn't played a snap in the NFL yet. To be clear, he may end up being terrible, I don't have an opinion on that at all, I just think this story is unnecessary and isn't a signal one way or the other.
@@sahranisworld You obviously don’t watch this show. If you did, you would know that Simms is a giants fan and Florio is a Vikings fan. They are going to talk about this. Fans of this show understand that
That was a long-winded answer from O'Connell to say "were f**ked." Lmao
Jordan Love sucks
Chris loves him some buttons on his polo shirt! LOL
Gotta stay on-brand
+1 on the vikes/giants live stream. Would watch.
That is the smart move..he is 21 so there is no rush. Plus Michigan was mainly a running team and in the NFL to run the ball NFL defenses have to respect the quarterback’s ability to throw the ball in tight windows.
Was it ever a competition? Word was ever since they signed Sam that he was gonna start
its kina painful to watch Florio realize that his Vikings are going to be in the quarterback market in the 2025 draft.
Nah, we’re accustomed to it 😅
For what? They drafted one this year. Lol derp
@@hitman9198enjoy him lol😂😂😂😂
2026/2027, yes. But I don’t think it will be 2025. As a Vikings fan, even pre-draft, I never believed in McCarthy.
No! That's the Bears where QB's go to die!!
Both are true. One for the NFC, one for the AFC 😂
You guys are funny, enjoyed your takes for both teams.
Everyone with any sense expected Darnold to be QB1 this year whether the Vikings drafted Maye or McCarthy like I said all pre-draft. The McCarthy hype was way overboard.
2024 Kevin O'Connell FIRED BOOK IT
Mike “Look…” Florio
I hope Seattle signs Darnold next year and we get our franchise QB. Then Vikings will have a great shot at getting Arch Manning when JJ McCarthy starts next year.
Mentioning mullens and jaren gave me ptsd.
All I heard was a ringing noise..everything went grey
JJ is not ready. It’s pretty clear.
Mccarthy needs to sit this season!
Darnold played against the Ravens last season and he was trying to win the game
Chris is 100 percent right about Sam, and maybe I'm crazy but what if Sam follows a Case Kenum pattern ? Then what ?
Mullins is QB2 BTW.
Darnold hasn't driven a car like this before. Let him play, develop the rookie, and let them learn like Mahomes did. Darnold will be better.
Yeah they have literally said this for the last two months. Pay attention to the team or don't comment.
No free hand out, JJ must battle for starting.
In this Vid I'd have guessed Simms was the Vlikings fan... wearing purple and having a purple background.😄
Only so much control in what the script asks of the players
I'm totally chill with this let's skol
No one in NFL history has benefitted more from simply “looking” like a franchise QB than Sam Darnold. The NFL just won’t give up on him. 😂
JJ is a project and the Vikings knew that. Once Kirk left and they were turned down from pick #3 they were desperate and have to make it work. Time will tell for sure.
As it should be
They brought Darnold in and are paying him $10M. Of course he's going to be the starter. It's a great situation to have McCarthy sitting for a year or two and learning.
That's very low for a possible starting QB, so that's not a guarantee if he can't perform.
Quarterback journey?
Darnold’s problem is game day I think its just to fast for him
He did just fine backing up Purdy, with a decent team. NYJ tried to destroy the guy.
Too "fast" for anyone on bad teams. Myth busted...
Balinski gotta be a cheese-brain
If nick mullens can throw for 400 yards and 3 tds, granted mullens also threw 3 int., I'm comfortable with sam darnold being a good upgrade
Don't start Rumors Florio. Vikings got him for this year. JJ McCarthy will be NEXT YEAR. ok. Vikings did not give Sam Darnold money just to sit. Yeah. Rodgers wait Mahomes wait love wait and so on. So. JJ McCarthy will wait yeah
Florio needs to chill.
Sam only makes 10 mill lol that's back up money
@@seamb923 yes so does Nick. Vikings has Mullins. I think Sam was wast of money
JJ makes less. Is money the only way to dictate where you are on the depth chart bc if it is JJ is darnolds backup
@@seamb923 It's actually like 3rd string clipboard-holder money. Daniel Friggin Jones makes 40M.
It’s very obvious that Simms has been converted, judging from the snappy shirt. He’s hesitant to make the statement publicly, but his shirt is a not so subliminal statement. We’re soon to have two-headed two-horned representation on this show. Within a couple of years the Football Nation will shift its eyes from the Chiefs to the Vikings. That’s just the way it’s going to be.
Only Vikings fans could be and are over the moon having Sam Darnold as their starter
He's a stop gap. Literally no Vikings fan or anybody for that matter cares about what Sam Darnold does. It's about McCarthy's development
I'm in MN and I don't know a single person who is over the moon about Darnold.
Are you new? You must be. Because no one in MN is "over the moon" about having Darnold. He's a stop gap. You have blinders on and think Vikings fans are happy with Darnold. Dude....we drafted a QB to sit and learn. Are YOU over the moon as in high? Because you sound like it.
I’m over the moon that cousins is gone 🥴
Only half wits think Sam doesn't have any potential. Oh that's you, fella
Darnold should be #1 QB.
I'm not a fan of JJ at all.
I would have drafted Nix well before JJ.
if Sam Darnold is QB1 then they should not have drafted JJ mcCarthy
Bonehead take
He's probably better than McCarthy anyway
"No 💩"
I love how everyone is already making excuses for what should have been a 3rd round pick in JJ McCarthy. He was the total hype pick this draft and Vikings will regret this pick. They would have been better off going after Nix.
@Mike Florio... it's been *at least* an hour since the ATL tampering penalty was announced. Where's your whiny arse reaction video??? I'm expecting tears son!
Florio was yelling at the top of his lungs that darnold showed the world how bad he was for many years, now that he's in Minnesota they might have something. What s joke
nah
🤣
Until he’s not😂
The YIKES-ings
The fact that JJ is still behind f’ing Mullens on the depth chart is disconcerting. Bust?
i mean the season ain’t even started yet . shoot they ain’t even put the pads on yet. let’s at least wait till the preseason to see what he can do before we assume. i think he’ll be fine after sitting a year
@@shoulderstrap99 agreed. He should at least be ahead of Mullens after camp/preseason. Actually, he should get a legit shot to compete for the starting job Week 1… since we all know he’ll be starting this season anyways when Darnold inevitably flounders.
Training camp hasn't even started. Lol derp
Nah sit JJ 1-2 years. Best spot to learn
Ill never understand why teams draft mid QBs in the first round
Of course you don't "understand" NFL moves. This is why you are a car mechanic. Obvious ya?
@@srobeck77 it's gonna be ok bro. Things will get better I promise
@@stephenwilliams9628 of course, why wouldn't they?
JJ MidCarthy
5 star recruit coming out of high school. Definition of not mid
@@hitman9198 😂 so was justin fields
@@Cjhilly bad example. Lol derp
@@hitman9198 yeah u right, Fields was actually more productive 😭
@@Cjhilly lol derp
Giants whip Minnesota? Bahahahaha😅
Poor Sam, drafted into a highrise fire, traded to a condo fire, traded to a safe house and now he's inside an igloo😂 Wish him the best, he's been a pro when he talks about his career shortcomings to this point.
Minnesota we have a problem
Whats that?
Good problem to have when you can sit a rookie QB, clearly....
@@srobeck77 behind Sam Darnold? Really?
@@tublisvaj8966 did you just step on something and confuse yourself?
Eff the giants 😂😂😂
No respect for Mike Florio. He's an embarrassment to Vikings fans everywhere.
Nobody cares what the Packers fan Florio has to say about the Vikings.
Florio a clown
Yet you watch him daily, seems so wierd...
@@srobeck77 I don’t even know when that mf on tv. You tried it though.
@@jweezy2912 yet here you are, as always. He lives rent free in your head
@@srobeck77 TF? its TH-cam goofy. Don't use phrases when you don't know HOW to use them. Dam Florio your boyfriend or something? 😂
Green Bay approves.
