Gio is the best. I look forward to January each year the Vikings make the playoffs, followed by Gino’s analysis of the inevitable Vikings playoff loss. The most entertaining segment of the year, every year!
I'm sorry. What generation are you a part of? Go kick rocks with this generational warfare garbage. Your parents and grandparents thought your generation sucked too.
@@p00l95 If they were in any other division, they don't get that creampuff schedule that made most of the NFC North look much better than it really is this season.
The Vikings love catching lighting in a bottle for one year. Randall Cunningham in 1998, Brett Favre in 2009, Case Keenum in 2017, Sam Darnold in 2024.
Great point. And this is exactly why they will let Darnold walk & roll with McCarthy. Finally develop your own QB instead of counting on reclamation projects.
I kind of felt bad for Sam watching the game. Kevin O'Connell is too damn pass happy, having Sam Darnold top-10 in attempts this season and then 40 attempts tonight shows a coach who need balance.
Gio’s comment 16:55 is spot on. Having kids with no interest in the outcome of a game has gotten me to care less about the outcomes. Just enjoy the highs as they come.
@@HappyEddyMcGuire yes but his entire offense was bad. The oline was terrible and the receivers weren’t getting open. The offensive game plan was bad as well by not establishing the run early, which took away play action. If I were a team looking for a QB and I were to evaluate Darnald, I would not have this game weigh too much on my decision.
@@cl5619 I'm with you. Seems like O'Connell is not a big game coach yet. Unfortunately, Darnold will take the hit in the media. That said, he still needs to overcome the dirty pocket. Burrow is a master at it.
Gio doesnt want to hear it but Boomer has a point. Celebrating like that instead of staying focused on your true mission can unknowingly take some of the edge off. Maybe not a lot but just a little is all you need to send you in a different direction.
Vikings were a good playoff caliber team that benefited from a favorable schedule. Plus they won a disproportionate number of one score games in the final minutes. This gave people the impression that they were top tier. But they weren’t and these last two games popped the bubble and the Vikings crashed down to what they really are… a good playoff caliber team, but not a real threat to win the SB
@@p00l95 those teams aren’t that good and their division played those same teams. Vikings also got the Jets, Giants and Falcons as their off-division set. It was a weak schedule. But credit to them for beating them
I feel bad for Minnesota. I listen to their 'Rockin' 101' station a lot on Tune In. It's an incredible Rock station. They deserve better. So does Greg. I hope the Vikes get it right one day.
Not nearly enough credit going to the Rams. For them to be displaced and lose their home game and STILL come out and play like this, you gotta show respect. The defense played PERFECT last night
Played like a team that won 5 games this season......2 weeks ago I was around a pack of Vikings fans and they acted like them going to the Super Bowl was a lock.
These two games have cost Sam tens of millions of dollars. Maybe hundreds of millions. He's the same guy he's always been. Put him behind a mediocre line and watch the meltdown. A bad team will see this through the season if they pay this guy.
This isn't surprising. Minnesota has had some great regular seasons only to get their doors blown off in the first or second round. The franchise as a whole has a losers mentality.
Hoisting a man for a regular in season game is embarrassing. Welcome to your super bowl. Glad you 1 that game and crapped the bed after that. What a mess.
I don’t think boomer ass size and realizes how many bad quarterbacks are in the league. Sam went 35 TDs and 12 interceptions. He’s going to get a contract of at least 140 for five years.
Sam Donald first playoffs game in his career turn into a big fat "FLOP" 👎 I don't know if the Vikings want Sam Donald now, maybe the NY Giants in a trade. 🤔🧠🏈
@@LS-eb3wt Slim chance to get JJ McCarthy now. The way Sam Donald played yesterday. The Vikings could now either trade, keep, or cut Donald. If Sam Donald is available? GM Joe Schoen is "stupid 🤡" enough to get him. Waste Giants resources on a QB again.
To be a great, clutch athlete, you have to be a bit of an arrogant sociopath. I think Darnold is just a regular guy, with insecurities and doubts. I would take Brady every time at QB, but Darnold would be a better father, almost surely.
Gio is all about playing golf in country clubs and eating caviar with captain America boomer,he sounds done talking about sports,worst sports show in the morning
It a disgrace this wild card round. The next postseason they should send top 8 or 10 in each conference and due nba style. Play in :7-10;automatic spot :1-6
IDK What Boomer is trying to prove? Teams should never celebrate about anything other than a Superbowl win? Players on the field celebrate after every play, let alone after the game. Weird take to have. Sounds like he would fit right in with the No Fun League.
The take makes zero sense… sounds like he’s trying to soften the blow for Sam Darnold’s performance… Gio is right.. he shit the bed… point blank period!
The clock struck 12 and darnold became Zack Wilson
Also on the bench was Danial Jones active. NYC inconsistency
Nah, he turned into Hackenberg. Oh wait, Hackenberg never played a snap.
Sam Darnold turned into Sam Darnold
Gio is the best. I look forward to January each year the Vikings make the playoffs, followed by Gino’s analysis of the inevitable Vikings playoff loss. The most entertaining segment of the year, every year!
At least the Giants have a title per decade, and even the JETS have a title! Gio chose this pain for himself 😂
Darnold still playing like he was on the Jets.
Sam turned back to a Jet 😂😂
Yes and the 2024 Vikings reverted back to what we thought they were in August.
Once a Jet always a Jet
Ironically NYC area inconsistency was also on the bench with Danial Jones active on the Vikings roster lol 😂
@jqight740 the Vikings haven't won a playoff game that had Daniel Jones at it
I was at the game last night, and I said this is Jets Darnold the whole game.
Vikings didn’t even look like they belonged the league
"I m seeing ghosts" Sam D.
Vikings celebrated the 14th win which is childish. This is part of the generation that got trophies for last place.
I'm sorry. What generation are you a part of? Go kick rocks with this generational warfare garbage. Your parents and grandparents thought your generation sucked too.
It was a bad sign… you never want your team celebrating that kind of regular season game victory in that way.
If they were in any other division they get a bye. NFL should go back to 1 and 2 seeds with byes
@@p00l95 If they were in any other division, they don't get that creampuff schedule that made most of the NFC North look much better than it really is this season.
@ They beat SF, Green Bay, and Houston. They did not have an easy schedule.

dont forget vikes were in 4 of the first 11 super bowls I know they lost all 4 but thats not lightning in a bottle
Wtf@@jeffreykarp9970what about kirk cousins
They even squeezed some juice out of an aging Moon after that Houston team was dismantled.
He's the reason I became a Vikings fan ...came over from the oilers.@@steves9964

I have nothing against the Vikings but Gia being crushed - priceless.
“That little kid”. Lmaooo
Feel bad for Sam. He lost 100 million last night. He just doesn't have that killer gene. Emotion clouds decision especially instant QB decisions.
He is still going to get paid.

You import a Jets AND a Giants QB and expect to break a 65 year curse.

This will end the talk of Darnold signing with the Jets or Giants...for 10 minutes.
It reminds me of the Arizona Cardinals of 2015. They were 13-3 and appeared unstoppable, then Carson Palmer imploded in the playoffs.
That team went to the NFC championship game dummy

@ Houston won their division. Coming into the year SF was a super bowl contender.
I’d still rather be a Giants fan bc when they are in it, they finish.
That's right!
I hate the word but, Sam choked under the pressure of his 1st time as a starting playoff QB. But the defense was horrible as well.
Sam played good. He made some really good throws.
Vikings are football's biggest choke artists 32 playoff appearances since '68 and they always choke 1 year they were 15-1 and didn't make the SB
98 was the Vikings year and they lost to the Falcons
To go from possibly having the number one seed to two weeks later getting booted. Wow what a fall from grace.
This NY radio dude is a big Vikings fan??
Didn't know how that game went the way it did!! Wow!! Now what do the Giants Do?!
At least we know now Vikings are not trading JJ
I feel bad for Minnesota. I listen to their 'Rockin' 101' station a lot on Tune In. It's an incredible Rock station. They deserve better. So does Greg. I hope the Vikes get it right one day.
Not nearly enough credit going to the Rams. For them to be displaced and lose their home game and STILL come out and play like this, you gotta show respect. The defense played PERFECT last night
I was in bed before 10 for the first time all season 😂
Shades of the 19999 Jaguars, only lost 3 games all year, all to the Titans
As Rex would say Play like a Jet. Sam did,
IT LOOKED LIKE HE WAS PLAYING FOR THE JETS AGAIN HE'S JUNK
Twins, Wild, Timberwolves, Vikings. Good God. The last time Minnesota claimed a win was the Mary Tyler Moore Show, I guess 🤣
Sam darnold had the Daniel jones stare last night.....seeing ghost
Let the JJMcCARTHY ERA BEGIN THANK GOD
beating GB is Minnesota's super bowl
If the Vikings had a good quarterback this year they might have gone to the superbowl 😊
The blitz was his enemy un real
Please re-sign Sam Darnold!!
Signed,
A Lions Fan🦁
Played like a team that won 5 games this season......2 weeks ago I was around a pack of Vikings fans and they acted like them going to the Super Bowl was a lock.
Sam’s carriage turned into a pumpkin
Once a jet always a jet !!!
Vikings are such chokers! They made the Rams look like the 85 Bears
As a Jets fan and the QB play I’ve seen this year. I want Sam back
These two games have cost Sam tens of millions of dollars. Maybe hundreds of millions. He's the same guy he's always been. Put him behind a mediocre line and watch the meltdown. A bad team will see this through the season if they pay this guy.
It’s not the celebration. It’s the fact that they activated Daniel jones. He’s a mush. You cannot win with him on the sideline.
At least Jones won a playoff game.
would had been cool to see JJ at least for the last quarter
He can't play
The curse of the Jets strikes again!!!
Suddenly the Bucs costing themselves on Sunday night doesn’t feel so bad
At least they kept it close
lmao gio was heated
Ghosts do what they do best: spook ya! Sam was spooked!
I think it's a bit unfair as Darnold O-line was shit this last game.
The O line collapsed and killed them.
O'Connell passed the ball too much yesterday. Not all on Darnold.
Sam was running for his life all night
This isn't surprising. Minnesota has had some great regular seasons only to get their doors blown off in the first or second round. The franchise as a whole has a losers mentality.
Boomer is correct: the team acted like they accomplished something when, in reality, they hadn’t accomplished a thing. I think they lost focus.
Darnold may of taken a little too much advice from Daniel Jones
🥳LETS GO JETS‼️😂🎉 J E T S JETS JETS JETS‼️🐯🤙
Sam saw ghost again
Talk about ungrateful turning it over to JJ at least you have someone with some promise to turn it over to
Should have put DJ in
All the playoff games were terrible other than the Washington game.
What a joke of a game, typical Vikings giving the fans around the league nothing to watch.
Well, JJ McCarthy won the starting job last night, lol.
That's what you get for talking shit about the Lions, Gio
How many years did ya watch Sam??
So. Yall are gonna dump on sam darnold when justin herbert thre 4 picks, and jordan love threw 3. Nobody is calling for their heads....
Hey GIO,
Serves yA right for JET ✈️ bashing all year!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Hoisting a man for a regular in season game is embarrassing. Welcome to your super bowl. Glad you 1 that game and crapped the bed after that. What a mess.
At 14 wins and you out of the first round
You never experienced 28-3 though.
ever since the vikings signed daniel jones.....
A "giant" mistake...
I don’t think boomer ass size and realizes how many bad quarterbacks are in the league. Sam went 35 TDs and 12 interceptions. He’s going to get a contract of at least 140 for five years.
Only a idiot will give Sam that money.
The only way that might happen is if that team has a top rock solid offensive line.
BTW I hated that celebration, they had not won anything.
You're in Minnesota, they always change over to ice fishing season! I mean, it's the Vikings, right! See ya for da smelt run, eh?
Sam holds the ball too long.
what's new?
The Vikings were a weak 14 win team anyway I didn’t expect them to win against the rams
Should have started Daniel Jones hahaha 😂
Maybe Jones brought them bad luck. Lol
@CynthiaGeorgette that's why we let him go, I'm a Giants fan and now that's he's gone all of a sudden Saquan stays healthy 😒
I mean Jones beat this same team in the playoffs so the stage wasn’t too big and the lights weren’t too bright.
Yeah, no. Jones holds the ball like Darnold did last night. He'd been sacked 12 times and fumbled 3.
Sam Donald first playoffs game in his career turn into a big fat "FLOP" 👎
I don't know if the Vikings want Sam Donald now, maybe the NY Giants in a trade. 🤔🧠🏈
No we gave yall Daniel Jones no thanks yall can have em... and if we wanted JJ we would have drafted him last year, No thank you..
No to the Giants. Another Daniel Jones…
@@LS-eb3wt Slim chance to get JJ McCarthy now. The way Sam Donald played yesterday. The Vikings could now either trade, keep, or cut Donald.

Should have given Daniel Jones a chance in the second half.
LMAO.
At least DJ has some legs.
@@charlesvandenburgh7754 He can run on designed runs, no agility, no wiggle ... he's not a scrambler or overly mobile.
In comparison to Darnold's issues, I would have sent D J in for a series just to see if he could have added a spark.
@ He was the emergency QB, he'd only been eligible if Darnold and McCarthy got hurt.
Vikings are a soft team. The coach is soft and they looked flat against the Lions and looked flat again against the Rams. Sam is a fraud.
To be a great, clutch athlete, you have to be a bit of an arrogant sociopath. I think Darnold is just a regular guy, with insecurities and doubts. I would take Brady every time at QB, but Darnold would be a better father, almost surely.
Didn’t see him until, the last two games, deja vu was he wearing green underwear
Same,old sammy😂
😂 gio you are a fool Sam was you're QB that's what he does best suck
How to lose millions of dollars in a week.
Ghost boy strikes again
Should’ve gone to Daniel Jones
LMAO.

Great season, disappointing finish. Could be worse you could be a giants fan😅😮😢
