Gotta love how they credited the fans. I was there, and it was an insane atmosphere. Those 3 straight false starts took them out of field goal range. So it took points off the board for the Texans. Let's not forget the 3rd and 31 either 😂

I've been a Vikings fan for all of my 34 years. I gave up on making any preseason predictions, positive or negative, a long time ago lol

@sirbeans7337 12 часов назад

One thing I always find funny is all these analysts say/assume McCarthy was gonna be the starter but I think almost all Vikings fans knew the plan was darnold probably all season especially when he looks like this. McCarthy getting hurt didn’t cause a promotion for darnold and the only downside is JJ can’t physically practice and improve

@frybreadking351 10 часов назад

Darnold was always going to start this season

@garbanzobeans7984 7 часов назад

All the sudden everyone is happy about Darnold. I recall when we were talking about picking him up, most Vikes fans were pissed including me.

@jimbo92107 12 часов назад

The Vikings show no signs that they will suddenly forget how to play football. They have a great system with two great coaches and lots of good players.

@robe2504 11 часов назад

Darnold was named Vikes starter at the beginning of training camp - that's why he took all the 1st team reps, and got pulled along with the rest of the starters after one drive in pre-season. KOC and Kwesi were always going to take a cautious path with McCarthy, initially planning for him to be QB3 so he could focus on his fundamentals. It was only because of his stellar progress that they were considering making him QB2. I'm hoping they extend or tag Darnold and probably start him into next season, or at worst trade him for several top 100 draft picks.

@pantsonparade 12 часов назад

Don't forget special teams. Wright is looking a lot better this year, and Reichard has been perfect so far, a huge improvement over Joseph.

I cant wait for the vikings to get moved up to 14 in the power rankings, after now beating back to back the #2 and #3 ranked teams going into this week

@DJSpike-ft9yw 8 часов назад

The only reason they were 15 is cuz their power rankings would “lose credibility” if they were that wrong on the Vikings early and move them up fast. Basically, they hold grudges against teams that perform in spite of predictions.

@wideglide2153 7 часов назад

@robe2504 11 часов назад

When that Vikes offence is Jefferson, Addison, Hockenson, Aaron Jones/Chandler and Nailor/Josh Oliver - it is going to be super hard to defend. Oliver as the big run blocking TE who can also catch, or maybe 3 WRs and Hockenson - 1 on 1's galore.

@aveoturbo1707 7 часов назад

Don't forget, we can run a little bit now too. Jones/Chandler are a very solid duo.

@JoshDavis1016 12 часов назад

Vikings Packers next week for first place in the North, gonna be a heck of a game!

@robe2504 11 часов назад

Maybe not. It will be a step up in competition for the Packers and step down for the Vikes. If Addison, Turner and Pace are back and everyone got through last week OK - the Packers might struggle like last season. Remember Flores' calling card is putting young QBs in a blender - doesn't matter which flavour it is Love or Willis.

@bojangles11111 12 часов назад

Thank you Ahmed for finally sayin the Vikings WERE a good team last year. They had insanely bad fumble luck early and then not only lost their QB but had 10+ guys out at one point so people are overlooking how good of a team they actually were last year, but had a season derailed by awful luck. Despite that bad luck the first time they were playing Detroit they were still playing with a chance to win the division and should have beat Detroit but Nick Mullens had the ball slip out of his hand while he was unpressured and had JJ wide open for the win. Vikings very likely could have won the division last year without the absurdly bad injury luck. This offseason they improved across the board except QB was the wildcard. Turns out Darnold can ball when put in a situation that isn't awful. They have a top tier head coach and the best or second best DC in the league (either Flores or Spags). They improved their DL with key pickups and fixed their disastrous run game while keeping a strong OL and elite skill players. They have been doing this without Addison or Hockenson this year and today they were missing their starting MLB and Dallas Turner. They were just a good team that got better this year. I just hope we don't get eliminated by injuries again.

@alistercaddy1208 12 часов назад

And it might be crazy, but I am happy we got rid of Cousins. I just never saw anything with Cousins that convinced me he'd be there in big moments in the biggest games.

Sam Darnold was never the back-up he was always the starter, JJ was the backup. National media guys get paid to talk about teams but don’t know about the teams unless your the cowboys or KC
