Sam Darnold is a fighter. He never gives up. Even when previous teams give up on him, he never gives up. He has adapted and followed the path to do whatever it takes to improve his game… and it is paying off.
Starting J.J would be the dumbest move the Vikings ever made !! Let him sit, practice and learn for awhile It didn't hurt Rodgers, Jordon Love and many others to wait. Letting Darnold walk would be a stupid thing to do period !!!
Everyone labeled him a bust until he got here, nobody, not even the Vikings who signed him to only a 1 year deal expected this or they never would have drafted JJ at 10.
@@DustinHaning Kirk was old and had a major injury. Sam is 27 and a much better player than Kirk. The Vikings hit the jackpot with Sam. They would be foolish to let him go. Trade JJM for draft picks :)
@@Phaedrus5015 the window to win is now. Justin Jefferson only has a couple years left as the greatest wr in the league. Why waste the prime of his career waiting for JJM to hit his prime?
Wet good insight. Ben is around the team a lot. My worry is letting Sam go and anointing JJ could have a negative effect in the locker room. I do agree Rams or Niners could go Darnold. He was on both their rosters the last two years. Do ya wanna give Purdy top money? Do ya wanna keep paying Stafford? Or how long will Stafford play? I don’t know if the Vikes promised a no franchise in Sam’s contract, but Vikes could totally franchise him for a year or franchise tag him and if someone matches it and he chooses that, we get draft compensation.
Even if we keep Sam there's zero reason to trade JJ. That's just moronic to do with a guy you drafted that high and is only 1 year into a rookie contract.
@ What is “moronic” is letting Sam walk and thinking you can just throw anyone in there. Who gives a shit if he was the 10th pick. Ponder was 12 and we found out real quick didn’t we? JJ needs to be traded! And I guarantee if they let Sam walk a lot of guys on that team will not be happy! You do not mess up team chemistry and this team has it! JJ is not making these throws that Sam does no way! But but preseason 😂 against guys who aren’t even in the NFL. Bye JJ have fun in Tennessee!
LOL, if Vikes let Sam walk, they are in for a rude awakening if they think JJ will give them the same production and outcome. Ben is tripping. But hey this is a business and there are plenty of teams that would like to pay to have Sam on their roster.
If the Vikings can't win a Superbowl though... Who cares? I would rather have some unproven guy out there. And give it a shot. This franchise needs to seriously grow some balls when it comes to taking risks. Had to watch those bums Kirk Cousins and Mike Zimmer for years!! How painful.

I trust KOC for his assessment and cultivation of QB talent, and trust KAM's approach to building this organization for the long-term!
Extend Darnold. JJ is bird boned, injury prone, and an uncertain commodity. You’d be an idiot to let Sam out that building.

Sign Darnold- he is the real deal. JJ is an unknown quantity?
Maybe,but Darnold was never thought of being this good either.
JJ isn't an unknown quantity. His quantity is 1.
@@Daunte1984 he was drafted third overall for a reason. I can't blame him for failing with the jets and the panthers.
Everyone labeled him a bust until he got here, nobody, not even the Vikings who signed him to only a 1 year deal expected this or they never would have drafted JJ at 10.
Vikings around .500 next year if McCarthy starts, team/fans pissed off!
No one though Darnold would be this good , never know.
The kid is our quarterback for the next 10-15 years. He has to have a rookie season at some point, and yes, like all rookies, it takes some time.
Literally the EXACT same thing people said when we let Kirk walk and signed Sam Darnold. When will you people learn 😂

It’s $41m so they could do it.
Not on Rams roster, yet.
Let’s win a SB first!
Hell nah!! Trade JJ to the Raiders or Titans. We good with Sam! SKOL!

Draft Travis hunter with that pick
the no brainer is to keep Sam!
Give Sam a 25 million raise for one year to prove it and keep McCarthy as the backup and get rid of Mullins and put Hall on practice squad.
Why would he take a one year $35M contract?
Sure, let's make the Rams a Super Bowl team again.
@cogito nailed it. McCarthy is 100% unproven at the NFL level. And he's now had 2 surgeries??? Keep Slingin' Sammy D!

Jj McCarthy getting trade for Myles Garrett
NO Way.....
JJ starts next year.
NO Way.
He's NOT READY. And won't be ready.
Only the team really knows. We don’t know.
You have no idea if he's ready or not, I doubt you even knew who he was before the Vikings drafted him.
@DustinHaning I'm a former college running back and receiver.
