It's because they really have no idea what they're talking about it and it's just always been so easy to hate on the Vikes. But not this year baby! This year this team is for real!
@tylerrudh3743 The issue with the national media is that they never have in-depth knowledge of every team. Everyone hypes offense, but ignored what the Vikings did on defense. You could see what a Flores defense could look like last year. This year they found specific players to fit into Flores 3-4 scheme. I knew the defense would be good...we just needed Darnold to not stink it up.
@@YoungMoneyMunch1 nope. Saying that even the best team in the nfl has its hiccups. If the best team in the nfl can get beat 31-9 in the most important game in the season, the Vikings losing in the first round last time isn’t a huge sign of anything.
I knew everybody was wrong about Darnold from the start. Sportscasters and even hardcore Vikings fans. Now they're all eating their words. Isn't it so much fun to see know-it-alls get embarrassed? I'm sure smiling.
People are wrong all the time! I thought Darnold would be better with KOC the QB whisperer. It’s really really a feel good story to see this kid who’s been sh*t on by the brutal NY media his entire career and to find a resurgence in MN is just great to witness. He can actually ball. His pocket presence is great and his arm is elite
This team is REALLY GOOD ! I’ve never seen a Viking team this balanced ever. Up 24 and still playing like they’re down on defense , crazy . Even 98 the D was soft.
Darnold is anything but unstable. He’s a lunch pail, let’s go to work kind of guy who’s got his head screwed on straight. So satisfying to see him have success. Go, Sam.
The fact that B-Flo has the secret sauce to defeating Shanahan style offenses, should get him another HC job despite him being a defensive coordinator.
I feel like some players just figure it and the right mix of chemistry with coaches and players, you telling me he was just bad with the panthers and 49'ers , hell even the vikings didn't believe in him , the only reason he's playing is because their top draft pick qb is out for the year
Not true. They planned on starting him all year lol. That’s why they paid him 10 million. JJ was supposed to sit so it’s going exactly as they intended. I don’t know why people keep saying this lol
Sorry bud, that is just a trash uninformed take. Darnold was named starter in the pre-season, took nearly all the 1st team snaps in training camp, was taken out with the starters after 1 drive in the pre-season game. It was likely that McCarthy was going to start the season QB3 - so he could concentrate on working through the program that KOC had set for him. It was only when he went off in that pre-season game that he potentially became the QB2.
@@justingagnier1394 thats interesting , I thought I had seen he was ripping up training camp and was in the lead to be the starter before the injury , that being said all these so called analysis on tv are always wrong
Now hopefully the fanbase can stop crying about not getting respect, but then again y'all going find someway to complain and cry about this too and not just be glad we winning smh.
I know the vikings. I have followed them for decades. They are not the best team in the NFC. If they make the playoffs they wont make it past the first round. Am i wrong? History always repeats itself. It is a minnesota state of mind
Who cares your not a fan a true fan wouldn't think dumb negative crap like that. A true fan it doesn't matter if you have Brady or Minshew a fan loves their team no matter what. Your argument is what? My team is undefeated, but I don't think it will last history blah, blah this I been through it all as well but no matter what I love my team
@ben garrett knows. This is the buy in stage of the season. They have to build you up and make you beieve before they can crush you again. SKOL *I got $100 on them winning the Super Bowl for a $8100 payout
