It's really nice to see him thriving. As fun as it was to meme on him, he really deserved better. Now that he's with the Vikings, he's finally having his Mayfield redemption arc. Both him and Mayfield are both thriving and I'm happy for them
more geno smith id say, Mayfield was good on the browns, Darnold never really was. Him and Geno both got ruined by the Jets and like 6 maybe a little more for Geno since getting drafted finally proved why they were drafted
@@AndrewZajac-n4tI was gonna say do people forget that Baker has a playoff win? It may be just one but it's one more than a lot of QBs starters right now.
@@geordiejones5618 actually 2, He beat the Steelers in 2020-2021 wild card(shouldve beat the chiefs but they didnt call head to head contact), and he beat the Eagles last year
They didn’t do him any favors, but he had a ton of opportunities. That being said I’m super happy for him. I love these stories like Sam, Baker, and Geno finding a home and having success
I don't think people recognise that opportunities aren't equal. If I give you the opportunity to dive into a beautiful sea, but you have to do it from a 200 ft cliff, that opportunity suddenly becomes a lot less exciting 😂. Darnold was given opportunities, but they were almost all poor ones
As a person that follows the panthers it’s refreshing to see all these old panthers out winning especially darnold and mayfield 😊😊😊😊😊it just reinforces my reasoning of not caring. Oh well
Pleased to hear you raise Goff. Why do folks never include him in the conversation. I think he only won about 3 of his first 20 games as a Lion. Also why do folks think Sam will turn into a pumpkin, when he is new in an offence and should only get better as the playbook gets more familiar and play calls get more instinctive, and he gets more practice time with his new playmakers? Isn't that the automatic assumption with Jayden Daniels and Caleb Williams? It's probably more realistic to view the first 4 weeks of the Vikings as their floor, and not their ceiling. Sam is new, he is still having mix ups with Aaron Jones, his new RB, Addison has missed multiple games and missed the last two weeks of training camp so they haven't had much recent work together, Hockenson is due back and they have never worked together, and that's just the offence. There are 10-12 new players on the defensive starting rotation and they have never played with each other, or the Vikes incumbents and are also just learning the Flores scheme. Whatever you think of the Vikes now, they will probably be a lot better by week 10 or 12.
I haven't watched a full game of Darnold yet, but what I have seen on Redzone, he appears to be very confident and it certainly helps when you have Justin Jefferson the human ball magnet, but not discrediting Sam at all, he's doing everything a QB should. I agree with you, they should only improve, of course this is the NFL and sometimes a team will lose a game or two to "lowly" opponents that they shouldn't and suddenly the team is set back, so things can happen. But fundamentally, the Vikings look like the real deal.
I saw the talent in Sam Darnold in USC and hoped he did well with the Jets because I love the way the Big Tuna coach there. Man the Jets just have so much bad luck but had good players and Coaches. Is getting old how much they just never capitalize to win the big games.
Jesús man, I almost forgot if Rich didn't point out, Geno was drafted by the Jets as well as Sam, Zack Wilson; how bad ran are the Jets that everyone is making gold out of their discards, Mekhi is trying to make a comeback and has played well enough for the eagles, it would not surprise me if Zack Wilson in the future ends up being a franchise QB for the Broncos or any other franchise.
Alex Smith comes to mind for QBs who got wrote off and made it happen. Drew Brees was going into 3rd year as a bust. Glad to see Goff still getting it done. Used him a lot in Fandual cuz hes always cheap but gets 300/2 often.
Alex jones took a long time to develop.. hardbaugh was the coach he needed at the right time.. Singletary helped stabilize the 49ers.. it was rough rooting for him as a 49ers fan for the first 7 or 8 years.. he always flashed his abilities but never got the stability needed to succeed.. Mainly because the team was always chasing it's tail trying figure out how to get better
Jim Plunkett is the correct answer if Darnold wins a Super Bowl. Plunkett cemented the Raiders mythology. Darnold would immediately get elevated to legend status in Minnesota.
Ive been thinking about teams failing players for a while. It actually goes both ways, but that's the beauty of free agency and the freedom of player movement.
Sorry, one additional Note about the Seahawks game. The real praise should be placed upon Geno and their offense. They didn't have a defense to help them, Yet they Continued to fight back and make it a game. What that tells me about the lions is their defense has issues. I am not putting down Geno. I am simply saying the Seahawks have an excuse as to why their defense had massive problems. What is the lions excuse??? Wait until the lions defense faces the vikings offense, OMG, they will get SMOKED!!! The lions only have Aidan applying pressure at this moment. IF that holds true against the vikings, they will be in DEEP TROUBLE when trying to stop the plethora of weapons that the vikings will throw at them.
Look what they did/are doing to three Super Bowl-winning quarterbacks: Brett Favre, Joe Flacco, and Aaron Rodgers. No one succeeds with the Jets. They’re a revolving door for quarterbacks. And they’re not one quarterback away. ADAM GASE never even played football! Maybe Aaron Rodgers will turn it around this week, but last year, tearing his Achilles four plays into the season is the most Jets thing ever, besides Sam getting mono.
He is right. Many a new QB falls off the radar quick. The last game Dobbs started for MN, Dobbs looked very uncomfortable trying to stay in the pocket. Mike Zimmer always trashed talked Keenum then released him.
For some reason even guys that do this for a living like these two guys, seem to forget that Darnolds last 5 or 6 games with Carolina he balled out. 4 out of 5 wins and lost to Brady and Tampa in a shoot out where Darnold had 330 yards and 3 TD's.
As a fan of the Jets since 1970, I am so happy to see Sam D's success in Minn. , I hope he throws 3-4 TDS this Sunday. The Jets have been a dysfunctional franchise since the NFL merger. Hopefully, a Minn. blowout of the Jets begins the house cleaning, starting with Saleh and Douglas.
The media constantly ripped Kirk his entire stint with the Vikings. Then we refuse to pay him $50 million per year and everyone goes into a frenzy saying, “HOW COULD THE VIKINGS BE THIS STUPID?!?!”
To be fair, it doesn't work out for a lot of people in NY because it's a bad organization. Sam and Gino both turned into fine quarterbacks. New York doesn't have patience, and it's a place devoid of rational thinking. Rodgers isn't working out in NY either, lol. And if that isn't the biggest, "here's your sign" moment then brother, I don't know what else to tell ya. The football gods are winding up for yet another legendary naed punch with that organization.
I’m beginning to think Zach Wilson is next in a couple of years. Especially watching Rodgers and the Jet offense. Coaching and play calling matters. Organization matters as well
Hello Rich, I believe that you are Neglecting to mention one Very Important aspect of Goff's performance and of the Accolades that you bestowed upon the Seahawks Defense - I got this from ESPN (and another network as well) that the Seahawks were missing their ENTIRE Starting Desfensive line. IF this is correct (I have zero reason to believe it is not true), then your Praise for Goff is Very Much Overrated. Did Goff perform Well? Yes, he did. BUT, I do not care what team you play, IFFF they are missing their Entire defensive line it is going to be a ROUGH/DIFFICULT long night for your defense. Thus, the case with their game against Goff. Thus, the reason Goff was able to perform at such a high level with little to No resistance from the D Line. Wait for the game against Minnesota and lets see how Goff performs then? Goff was basically cherry picking against the Seahawks.
Still waiting to see if the other shoe drops and it becomes Josh Dobbs all over again (this is probably the sentiment of all Minneapolis/St. Paul too lol)
Rubbish. It's the sentiment of everyone with Sam's ghost in their head, that haven't moved on, or watched Sam in the last 3 years. Sam is nothing like Dobbs and never has been. Sam is new in the Vikes offence and should improve as he gets to know the scheme and players better, just like we expect of Caleb Williams, and Jayden Daniels. It's just lame group think of folks that haven't done their homework and can't think for themselves. You'll still be waiting while other people are off to US Bank to watch the playoffs.
Nope, that time has past. What happened with Dobbs is he came in and played street ball bc he didn’t even know the playbook, and it worked. Then He couldn’t run the offense when he learned it. This is nothing like that. Darnold has been there all offseason, and now balled out 4 straight games and knocked off 3 straight contenders. There is no reason to suggest it won’t continue.
@@phillipmiller3076 I'm just so over dipshits that believe in ghosts and live 4 years in the past, that's all. What are you going to do next - share your picks for SB 2022?
I raised 75k and Christina Ann Tucker is to be thanked. I got my self my dream car 🚗 just last weekend, My journey with her started after my best friend came back from New York and saw me suffering in dept then told me about her and how to change my life through her. Christina A. Tucker is the kind of person one needs in his or her life! I got a home, a good wife, and a beautiful daughter. Note!:: this is not a promotion but me trying to make a point that no matter what happens, always have faith and keep living!!
< I know that woman(Christina Ann Tucker) If you were born and raised in new York you'd know too, No doubt she is the one that helped you get where you are!!
I really hope the best for Sam Darnold, because like a lot of peoples, I love a comeback story. It's just like everyone forgets that year in Carolina where he was playing great the first 3 games of the year. Then the clock struck game 4 & he turned back into a pumpkin. I hope not, but it is October Vikings fan.
Enjoy the money while you can - I’m not the only one that knows the NFL’s corrupted and the games are fixed. Mahomes - puking - he gets more help from the refs than the Dothraki get from the dragons.
In 2021 when Darnold was traded to the Panthers for the first 3 games he looked like an All Pro and then the real Sam Darnold showed up. Will the real Sam Darnold please stand up. I’m not buying it. You can’t be a shitty football player for 6 or 7 years and then just all of a sudden you don’t suck. I think within the next 2 games the real Sam Darnold comes back.

3 games in during his Carolina stint he was playing lights out... an then the wheels fell off game 4.
Can we stop making the narrative of everything Sam does as it relates to Baker Mayfield?
They didn’t do him any favors, but he had a ton of opportunities. That being said I’m super happy for him. I love these stories like Sam, Baker, and Geno finding a home and having success
opportunities to fail
I don't think people recognise that opportunities aren't equal. If I give you the opportunity to dive into a beautiful sea, but you have to do it from a 200 ft cliff, that opportunity suddenly becomes a lot less exciting 😂. Darnold was given opportunities, but they were almost all poor ones
Carolina had Mayfield and Darnold, gave them both up for Bryce Young. Really? Organization and teammates matter 🏈✌️
Damn yo, that's the unadulterated TRUTH right there 😤
And took Young over Stroud. Ouch!
That QB draft class is turning out to be pretty good with Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson, Darnold and Baker.
As a person that follows the panthers it’s refreshing to see all these old panthers out winning especially darnold and mayfield 😊😊😊😊😊it just reinforces my reasoning of not caring. Oh well
So that begs the question, when Bryce leaves, will he have success somewhere else?
@@ShimmyD-u7g in my opinion he’s kind of old for pee wee football but you never know

I’ll answer what Sam was really thinking: “Are you effing kidding me yes they failed me in every way, they’re the Jets what did you expect?”
Which QB have the Jets NOT failed? 😂
why does everyone forget Mahomes sat for 15 weeks. I am glad Darnold is playing well.
It shouldn't be a revenge game, the people that failed him are long gone

GO VIKINGS!!!!!!!!!
so you need a team for quaterbacks to succeed. shocking.
And normally, when you have a high enough draft pick where you can draft a top QB prospect, you’ve proven you don’t have the team to support him.
Jets fans remember how down Rich was on Darnold.
As a fan of the Jets since 1970, I am so happy to see Sam D's success in Minn. , I hope he throws 3-4 TDS this Sunday. The Jets have been a dysfunctional franchise since the NFL merger. Hopefully, a Minn. blowout of the Jets begins the house cleaning, starting with Saleh and Douglas.
I think yall need to draft another qb but jets defense is still good but offense need some work I think yall be fine
Wild that Darnold is younger than Burrow.
The one year with the 49ers saved his career
It's a dangerous game using words you don't really know.
