Sports media is absolutely salivating just waiting for Darnold to have a bad game

[andrejohnson]

Yes they are. They hate that an athlete can turn their life around and just judge them by their past. Nick is joke

[TimAllen-fsrg]

Keep doubting please . The Vikings seem to do better . Thank you 👍

[jeffreyseverson]

Are we to believe it was Darnolds fault the Jets sucked when they drafted him. Are we to believe Carolina was a juggernaut before Darnold went on to play for them. And Are we to believe Darnold has just been lucky when he's on a good team and plays well. I think not all you haters.😂😂😂😂😂

[rudyantiporda]

It’s so irritating that everyone is waiting for him to fall. How many QBs this weekend had a pick and fumble but Sam is on phantom pumpkin watch. I’m so praying they prove all the haters wrong. Btw that pick was nonsense. Dude was out of bounds

[Ttay]

Man they rather believe there narratives then admit there wrong

[xSubutai]

refs gifting Packers 22 points in the 4th quarter for betting margins was disgusting.

[scottfors]

They almost were all wrong and they just can not handle admitting it.

[jonskogen]

“Pumpkin watch”. Most corny phrase ever used

[lunatune]

I will never understand why Darnold is held to a higher standard than any other quarterback in the league....

[jerrygardner]

The Vikings offensive system and skill players are the best he has ever had. Lbvs

[endtimer]

Big thumbs up for the Vikes all around Darnold, the coaching staff and players! Congratulations on a great season thus far..keep the momentum!

[jctslice]

Something for sure. It has to be. 3 consecutive games of Darnold and the Vikings balling out against good teams. Vikings are legit. Sam Darnold is legit. I gotta eat my crow, Julian. I was very wrong about this guy. I thought he was garbage lol, but he's far from it. He's a legitimately good QB that still has upside to be great

[Sambam]

What people need to realize. All of these quarterbacks are good. They just need to have the right parts around them. If MN makes the playoffs Sam will be their quarterback.

[joeharris]

Love went 32 of 54 and threw 3 interceptions. 2 of his tds were on drives that started at the 3 and the 20. I'm so impressed.

[Sukuna]

This was a fantastic win for the Vikings. It's a win-win for the coaching. O'Connell gets to go into the locker room and act like they lost because they almost blew the game but they still remain undefeated. No complacency will set in.

[robe]

I'm absolutely with you on the eye roll. These guys are just so desperate to have their original opinions validated. But they are so wrong, and now their logic is backwards. Darnold has only been with KOC for about 4 months, and only played 4 games, mostly without half of his weapons. Darnold should get better as the playbook becomes more instinctive, and his confidence grows with his new team mates.

And there are 10-12 new players in the Vikes defensive rotation - players that largely didn't even know each other 4 months ago, or the Vikes incumbents, or the Flores scheme. They should just get better from week to week as they build trust and combinations with each other.

I'd argue what we're seeing now is the Vikes floor, not the ceiling. With an overhyped and impotent Jets on the schedule this week, and the whole bye to prep for the Lions at home, followed by 6 or 7 games against teams with poor records - the NFC North could be over before the Vikes see the Packers or Lions again. The way their schedule looks right now, all things being equal, this team might not lose until week 18, when they'd probably bench the starters after a quarter like the 49ers did last season.

[yeahsureyoubetcha]

They got complacent in the second half and it almost bit them

[marcphil]

Bro the Vikings can go 10-0, 11th game Sam have a bad game and they go told you ! Pumpkin watch ! I told you it was coming”

[Will-uu]

They are praying he has a bad game so they can say they were right. Nick Wright, especially, hates being wrong. Stephen A at least has admitted he may be wrong about Darnold.
