Did Minnesota make a good decision?

What is minnesotas record vs Seattle?

I’m not saying we were wrong to take Sam. I’m saying Minnesota was not wrong for moving on either

Have you looked at their team and record?

They are significantly worse off

No, actually I was just complaining from a completely uneducated and immature position of impatience and laziness… but I’m not taking it back

Fine I’ll tell him the same thing! What’s up with your brain Sam????

Spoken like a man that has never made a mistake or had a bad day.

Must be nice to have a life like that?

I know I certainly don’t.

I thought I made a mistake once but I was wrong

I guess that explains the defensiveness - good insight!

 

[NJlargent]

You win with defense and ball control. Sam is fine for what we need. You do not need Brady, you just need a QB closer to Brady than he is to Stouffer.

I’m not defensive. It’s ok I know ya’ll don’t want to hear it, and I thought Sam was really impressive at first but I just see what he is. I don’t care if your 99 when I need 100

Glad we agree

This I agree with 100 percent. I just think Sam turns in to Stouffer when we need him most

Thats a good point but Stouffer would have thrown 5 picks last week and a 2 fumbles.

So Sam is better than Kelly Stouffer… not encouraging

 

[getnasty]

Sam is good enough for us to win a Superbowl with. He just can't lose it.

With that said I think I would have made the same decision I were the Vikings. QB whispers and offensive minded head coach. Already drafted your guy. They made the right decision.

What is minnesotas record vs Seattle?

I’ll be there next Sunday. Not because of Sam, but because I am a die hard Hawks fan. But I hope Sam gets the win in fine fashion against his old team.

What is minnesotas record vs Seattle?

My point exactly, as great as Minnesota was last year I was never afraid of them.

Not what I was implying. Seattles current 2025 record vs Minnesota current 2025 record. FYI, Seattle is better. Seahawks made the right QB choice, Minnesota the wrong WB choice.

 

[Chukarhawk]

Yeah I get it. Nobody wants to hear it but I’m seeing a trend with Sam and I don’t care man. When he was a Viking how many were worried about him. I wasn’t. And of course I saw the good stuff he was doing earlier but now I am losing trust and confidence in him. Right as im typing this he throws a td…

I think the trend you are trying to describe is ELITE.

 

[TwistedHusky]

So far, I have seen 2 'should have been INTs' on throws that never should have been made.

I am beginning to think that the problem is not 'big games' so much as that Darnold throws teams 'gifts' throughout the games. Good or better teams tend to take advantage of those gifts. And bad teams don't.

Titans should have had at least 7 from the one, and stopped one of our scoring drives on the other.


After all the scrutiny Sam has taken after essentially losing us the last game singlehandedly, it is weird that he seems to continue to throw passes that should never be made.



(Also, where is Horton? Is he injured? Out for how long?)

 

[SonicHawk]

Holy shit, Sam Darnold isn't playing MVP level every week? What a failure.

 

[JPatera76]

Im going to start merging Darnold threads that are similar in nature
