If the Vikings move on from Darnold, they would have such a great sales pitch for Flores. Here’s $50 mill, build your defense, and be the Ben Johnson of next year’s cycle
I don't think that's how it will play out. I think he'll be getting some, but I think they'll put a strong priority on free agent interior oline. It's an offensive league and the defense will make due with what's left.
I think that’s true but we already invested the majority of our resources to offense. All they really need is interior O line and that’s typically cheap
Whats next? Hopefully an investigation for point shaving. He played like a man whose family was being held hostage by the mob or a man who had bet on the other team. He failed to throw the ball to wide open receivers or overthrew them, held the ball while standing in the pocket like a statue. You don't get that bad that quick without some motivating factor.
Darnold will benefit next season because his team won't be overspending at the QB position. And there won't be the expectations and pressure that he'd have to deal with had they beaten Detroit and gotten to the Super Bowl because of his consistent excellence.
Do you feel Daniel Jones is a better option? Darnold got a panic attack. I'd rather address that than give up on him. 14 wins? Seems like a great starting place.
Do you think a man who lacked the intelligence to be an NFL quarterback will somehow become more intelligent as a head coach? A good man knows his limitations and play-calling needs to be handled by someone who prefers chess to checkers and nonfiction to graphic novels.
I have a question for you/all Vikings fans, and I ask this as an Eagles fan.. After Carson Wentz tore his ACL and Nick Foles had that Superbowl run, he came back the next year still as a backup, and Carson Wentz both started and ended the season injured for Foles to take it over, make the playoffs and we had that double doink.. Which brings my question: Will Sam Darnold accept that Nick Foles-esque role of coming back to the Vikings, as a backup, for lesser money than he wouldve gotten, or do you think that role goes to Daniel Jones?

Build the trenches and you win meaningful games.
Let him walk

He receives his walking papers and we keep Daniel Jones to compete against JJ McCarthy for starting job

Feast or Famine with Darnold... Yes time to grasp at straws
Backup after those 2 horrendous games. 4th team isn't good. Crumbled under the bright lights in the biggest moments.
Locked on Vikings…more like Locked on Lions nuuuts 🎉🦁🥜
Preach on the "frauds" section.
