Good game guys. I still can't believe we got swept by the Lions AND the Vikings this season. We did manage to get a win against Duh Bears by blocking a field goal!
It's pretty unheard of for GB to get swept by 2 division teams, and STILL be a strong runner in the playoffs. I still think NFC divisional round will see GB again anyways, which is what I'm most afraid of (MIN fan).
I'm actually surprised at how not worried I am about Reichard The last time a rookie kicker had some struggles it was daniel Carlson, and we saw how that turned out I actually have faith that Oconell isn't only good with the mentality of quarterbacks, bur the team as a whole. Reichard is gonna make big kicks this playoffs. I can feel it
If any of the Vikings offensive linemen check in here??? Hell of a job pass blocking yesterday. I have complained about Bradbury, Risner, Robinson. NOW!!!!! Lets do it again in Detroit to go 1-0. Guys, you have a shot at four - 1 game seasons now. Play each week like there is no tomorrow.
The video of Kevin O'Connell watching the locker room celebration reminded me of a parent watching his kids on Christmas morning. It was a beautiful sight.
A lot of people are saying that last Darnold pass was a bad pass but I completely disagree. I think that might have been one of his more clutch passes of the game considering the time left and importance. Go back and watch it. It came up short because he had to get rid of it extremely quickly and lift it high enough to get over an oncoming defensive player jumping with his hands in the air. It was really good heady play by Darnold in the situation. I think that gets batted down 95 out of 100 times
@ oh I’m not taking a thing away from Akers for the catch. It was a great catch just to not let it hit the ground and then catch it after the bobble. I just think it was an incredibly headsy play by Darnold to get enough air under it to stop it from getting swatted and after watching it again I don’t think he could completely see Akers behind the defensive player.
NOBODY including our own fans wanted to give Sam his credit all season they’d rather hype Joe Josh Stafford etc Sam the best QB in the NFC right now I kept telling people slow down on the JJ hype and give Sam a chance no cared till now Sam Darnold is Bane🤣SKOL
Darnold got hot after that Jacksonville game, which was after the trade deadline. Nobody saw him progressing in the offense like this so it's not a bad take
@@jasont1466you guys keep saying nobody saw this but quite a few of us did. We're patient and saw how talented Sam Darnold is. All he needed was time to gel in the system and for Kevin to adjust for Sam learning curve.
I hate to say it, but I almost think they should have kept the guy who filled in for Reichard. But then maybe I'm just not good at dealing with stress! If KOC still believes in the guy, I trust him!!
I'm so f_cking tired of having to hear about how wonderful Detroit is, how great GB is, and how great Caleb Williams is! For once this is about the VIKINGS being great, and nobody else!! FOR ONCE!!!! Enjoy it, Vikings fans!
Really? Already? Youre not even interested in seeing what he can even do in the playoffs first? I know this is the Vikings so naturally we are conditioned to have lowered expectations, but lets aim for more than just another regular season stats stacker for our "franchise QB.". I want a QB who can win the big games in the playoffs.
@SincerelyJnC - last week was a playoff hopeful Seattle. GB is obviously already in. And this next game is definitely like a playoff game! Sam had preformed!
@@Tbass-yy8uc 122 yds rushing, 3tds. 2 fumbles. Team had 5 and lost three. Favre, Harvin, and Berrian. Farve threw the infamous pick that turned the game. Oline gave up 10 sacks. Like I said it was a team effort.
The 4th quarter of the vikings getting off to the gas offensively and defensively shows vegas/nfl are rigging these games to keep the spreads where they want them. This game should have been a twenty point blowout. Sorry fanboys...these outcomes aren't genuine.
They kept the foot on the gas, thats why darnold threw a pick on am aggressive throw, they also kept blitzing, our defense is just bad against hurry up because can't disguise well or sub.
I would love to be wrong but he's not. They have a real one in charge of the franchise now (Kevin Warren) and he will make sure they get a proper QB-friendly HC. Watch them hire Josh McCown, you heard it here first
If Sam wins next week against Detroit he should be the hands down mvp and koc should be hands down coty, if this happens and if either gets shafted ill be livid, Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson were all expected to be good and lift their teams, Sammy d was expected to do the opposite this guy has been insane and this might be the best Vikings season I’ve ever seen, still rocking with McCarthy unless Sammy gets us to the sb, only three wins away from changing my mind
2009 was ALL Favre throwing that cross-field, across his body interception, instead of trying to run for one or two more yards and set up the FG. I will never forgive him for that screw-up!!
I’d argue this Sunday night is already the NFC championship. I think if the vikes win and drop Det to the 5th seed they get bounced from the playoffs the next week against whoever they’re playing. I think they just franchise tag Sam for a “repeat prove it” year and if it’s a regression they let him go after 2025. It’s locker room suicide if you let Sam go after this season, no way the team accepts that
@@joemiller.566 Maybe because he dials up a 3 man rush too early in the 4th quarter. This defense is only at its best with the pedal to the metal and he hasn't figured that out yet.
I feel like the Kirk crusaders are back, in the form of Darnold defenders. They are screaming that we need to keep Darnold and pay him whatever he wants. There’s 100% chance they were the same ones screaming to keep Kirk last season.
I don't want him even if we win the Super Bowl. You can't just run things back, you have to constantly upgrade and stay ahead. We need a center, RG, NT, HB, CB, and pay current players. This isn't workable with a big QB contract.
@@okstate999ridiculous. If the Vikings win a superbowl with Sam darnold no gm would not resign that qb. Mainly cuz if you missed on McCarthy and have bad seasons following that you lose your job.
Nah man they left when Kirk did, and arrived when Kirk did. His fanbase is something else entirely. The Darnold defenders are afraid that if he walks and we go with JJ that we could have a scenario like San Fran has with Purdy now. Except Brock had time to show what he's capable of. I suppose McCarthy but he really is an unknown
After the dust clears next week, we're going to wonder who were we kidding? Let's be realistic, no way Vikings will beat the Lions, not in their crib. How many times have we gone through this, so much excitement only to be humbled and put in our place in the end. I'll believe when it happens.
I believe that after this year with the Viking organization and Kevin O’Connell’s QB whispering experience that he will re-sign at a “reasonable price”. I’m thinking he will sign for around $30-35 Million a year, which is below the franchise tag.
UNLIKELY, but... if the Lions lose tonight, we would get the #1 seed if we TiE next week's game. If the Lions win tonight, they would get the #1 seed with a TIE. Would be interesting then if next week's game goes to OT how it would be played.
Guys please discuss this! I heard some talk about keeping Darnold and trading JJ. If the Vikings could get 2 first round picks for McCarthy. Do you do it as another option and that would hopefully offset some of the roster issues that could come up in signing Sam to a big contract
@armonafdjeie Wrong. Just wrong. Packers traded up for Jordan love, jets traded up for sam darnold, bills traded up for Josh allen, chiefs traded up for mahomes. NONE of them gave up multiple first round picks. At least know what you're talking about bro . Google is free.
Ya, I think they have a realistic chance at getting to the SB this year. But is it a better chance than in 1998? I would say no. In 1998 they went 15-1, the best record in the league, and set an NFL scoring record. They were clearly the favorite to win the SB. But then "wide left" happened in the NFCC. This year they were dominating in the first five games, but since then not so much. Most of the games have been closer. They aren't the clear favorite to win the SB, not at all. So let's see what happens against the Lions on Sunday before getting too excited. I must say though that the team has a better defence than in 1998. Brian Flores is a master-mind at his job. Also the offence seems to have better schemes. In 1998 the offence was so talented they didn't need good schemes. It was a circus show with a solid O-line, Smith at RB, Hoard at FB, then Reed, Carter and last but not least, the super-freak, Moss. It was CRAZY! They were so explosive it was like they scored at will. I remember being like 'what the hell happened to the team this year!!??' It seems like every second play was for 20+ years. If it wasn't Moss or Carter catching a ridiculous bomb, it was Smith exploding through a gaping hole in the line.
On the coaches ratings: Phil would still take Andy Reid... but suppose the question was - who would you take at the same age? If you had Reid and O'Connell at the same age, who was better? Reid was 55 when he arrived at KC.
Fun question… 1 former Viking would you put on this team (offense, defense, kr, pr)? Me.. offense Steve Hutch, defense Kevin Williams, KR Patterson, PR Marcus sherels
This principle that the future is either Darnold OR McCarthy is flawed. We can (and will) have BOTH of them for the future. It is time to get accustomed to the fact that we are blessed with QB talent now and in future years. Green Bay has been blessed for 30 years with QBs. It is now our time to be blessed at that position. Darnold, McCarthy, and Jones in 2025.
Forsure franchise tag if we win next week, and KEEP McCarthy, let him sit for a year or two if we look good in the postseason, if not move on and keep the cap space to fill some holes and put the youngster in
Rewatched the game today - Flores put together another masterpiece up until 9 mins left in 4th Q. Defense was flying around, love was uncomfortable the entire game. Then with 9 mins left (after Reichard’s second missed FG), B Flo puts the corners 10 yards + off the ball and only rushes 3. This has happened multiple times this year when the Vikes have a really big lead and it has let teams back in the game. I understand the thought process of wanting to prevent the big play, but you can’t just give up easy throws and catches of 15 yards+ with that much time on the clock. He has got to stay aggressive in those scenarios or good teams will storm back, and in the playoffs, that will get us beat.
Big leg Bill will be alright this isn't the Zimmer Vikings I trust KOC to stick with Reichard and right the ship we don't need to bail on the guy for 1 bad game like we did with Carlson who's been a great kicker in this league
Kurt Warner in 1999 = Sam Darnold in 2024. Kurt had a better offensive line and Marshall Faulk, but Sam has better receivers. Could be the same result.
Another , 'Only the Vikings would be a first at something negative'.....So if the Vikings lose to the Lions, they have to be the only team in the history of the league to win 14 games and not win the division title. That would be the likely scenario based on their penchant for achieving adverse notoriety.
Glad we won, but we’re going to have to do a lot more on offense to beat the Lions, or the top teams in the AFC, particularly the Bills. We have too many negative or short running plays. Despite Darnold’s great stats, he’s had a tendency to throw high and hot. INTs are a danger, but it doesn’t matter if our own receivers can’t catch them. We should have had two more TDs yesterday, like the Lions would have. We can’t afford wasted downs or possessions if we’re going to beat them. If we were anywhere near our scoring potential, the Packers would have been effectively buried early in the 4th quarter. I don’t think that’s good enough to beat the Lions, much less the AFC champs.
Cool off the media hype. The Lions are so banged up. The Vikings were missing Cashman the last meet up, and only lost by a field goal. Why do you alp think the Vikings got destroyed the last meet up?
Biggest pet peeve on yesterday's game, was that low hit that wasn't on Harrison Smith. No way was that a penalty!! Then Kraft CLEARLY low hit Patrick Jones and took him out of the game!!! WHAT?!?!? The ref's clearly didn't want us in that game. You can call a bad low hit but not call a hit that actually took out a guy. PROTECT THE PLAYERS REF'S!! Terrible Refereeing
I cant believe nobody is addressing the ridiculous scenario of the nfl seating! Seat based on RECORD! PERIOD! Just like nba. Best records in the nfc and your playing for either 1 or 5? Are you kidding me? What a joke. Fans get totally screwed. Not to mention the economics. Our home record 8-1. Tampa Bays 4- 4. Yeah, thats fair.
🤔 Let me see..... What would be the 2 most Important things for the vikings to do to win a championship....ah yes....6 seconds and a clean jersey... keep Sam Darnold's jersey squeaky clean and give him 6 seconds to throw the football....Yeah that sounds just about right....

If the Vikes win the the SB, and not lose any games. Dex is gna have a long summer with that stash. 😆
Big leg Bill will be alright this isn't the Zimmer Vikings I trust KOC to stick with Reichard and right the ship we don't need to bail on the guy for 1 bad game like we did with Carlson who's been a great kicker in this league
Kurt Warner in 1999 = Sam Darnold in 2024. Kurt had a better offensive line and Marshall Faulk, but Sam has better receivers. Could be the same result.
Another , 'Only the Vikings would be a first at something negative'.....So if the Vikings lose to the Lions, they have to be the only team in the history of the league to win 14 games and not win the division title. That would be the likely scenario based on their penchant for achieving adverse notoriety.
People actually use bluseky?
Only shit libs
Glad we won, but we’re going to have to do a lot more on offense to beat the Lions, or the top teams in the AFC, particularly the Bills. We have too many negative or short running plays. Despite Darnold’s great stats, he’s had a tendency to throw high and hot. INTs are a danger, but it doesn’t matter if our own receivers can’t catch them. We should have had two more TDs yesterday, like the Lions would have. We can’t afford wasted downs or possessions if we’re going to beat them. If we were anywhere near our scoring potential, the Packers would have been effectively buried early in the 4th quarter. I don’t think that’s good enough to beat the Lions, much less the AFC champs.
Cool off the media hype. The Lions are so banged up. The Vikings were missing Cashman the last meet up, and only lost by a field goal. Why do you alp think the Vikings got destroyed the last meet up?
No media hype, just what I’m seeing, play after play. From here on out, we’ll be facing scoring machines, and we miss too many opportunities.
Dan Campbell will go for it on every 4th down next week and if KOC doesnt match that ? We will definitely lose!!!!!

Biggest pet peeve on yesterday's game, was that low hit that wasn't on Harrison Smith. No way was that a penalty!! Then Kraft CLEARLY low hit Patrick Jones and took him out of the game!!! WHAT?!?!? The ref's clearly didn't want us in that game. You can call a bad low hit but not call a hit that actually took out a guy. PROTECT THE PLAYERS REF'S!! Terrible Refereeing
They should put in Ingram for known-run situations.
Yea as an xtra lineman or out the FB spot, goal line package!
So Greenard’s role was “bulwark.”
Hotter take. How about the Wilfs give KOC top coach contract and give Flores top 10 head coach $ to stay for 3 yrs.
Judd, do we know that Darnold had bad confidence coming in? Certainly it's better now, but not sure we know it wasn't good.
KOC IS the best coach in the NFL, period.
I cant believe nobody is addressing the ridiculous scenario of the nfl seating! Seat based on RECORD! PERIOD! Just like nba. Best records in the nfc and your playing for either 1 or 5? Are you kidding me? What a joke. Fans get totally screwed. Not to mention the economics. Our home record 8-1. Tampa Bays 4- 4. Yeah, thats fair.
Are coaches not included in on the pie?! Cuz this team isnt where there are without
Can Judd not wave flag 1 handed? Is it made of lead?
🤔 Let me see..... What would be the 2 most Important things for the vikings to do to win a championship....ah yes....6 seconds and a clean jersey... keep Sam Darnold's jersey squeaky clean and give him 6 seconds to throw the football....Yeah that sounds just about right....
Been growing m hair since end of last season and vowed to not cut it till we were eliminated
TehDFC knows how you feel about pie.
Hey Pat Riley 😂💀🤣💀🤣💀
