@@StillKeepOnLosing his squad won handily today too. You’re the one who needs (has needed) Dr Phil, seeing as the Vikings look like a Super Bowl contender and it kills you. 😅
It's a huge advantage, and a rare skill. AP couldn't do it. Dalvin Cook couldn't do it. Very few Vikings backs could do it. Aaron Jones has great vision, and the ability to change direction without losing speed.
On a plane for the second half and getting off airplane mode to immediately see these updates was phenomenal!!! Had the vikes losing this after the emotional win over the niners. We are legit!!!
Kudos to the CBS National show host who stopped his fellow announcers and said it’s time to acknowledge Darnold and praise him. He has taken constant crap for four years and has had to deal with constant criticism, good for him for playing like a warrior. Kudos to the co-host for congratulating Sam and giving him some love. Screw Stephen A. Smith, we’re damn proud of you Sam. On to Green Bay. SKOL!
@calculatedrisk1 - Thanks, I saw that. ESPN and the other pundits still won't acknowledge what they do. I guess they will wait for them to lose to GB.
This is what I have been calling for, since KOC has arrived. The willingness to keep the pedal to the metal. Domination… You have to do this in the NFL, or you lose… Killer instinct…
YESSS! Its finally nice to not have a cardiac season of losing every game by 3 pts one season then winning games by 3 pts the next. I like that we haven't played down and let teams back in.
I Love that everyone in the media was saying no way jefferson staying and he isn’t gonna be happy with darnold but already has 3 touchdowns and standing on the bench getting the crowd hyped and screaming let’s go
Do whatever it takes to get Flores to stay for next season need him for next years draft, with the talent on defence. If he stays for next season we’re a contender.
I’m so happy for real Viking fans, especially long suffering ones since the 70’s like myself! But not for the many fake fans on Purple Daily, who hated Kwesi without giving him a chance to do his job… or the ones who quickly wanted to jump on Brian Flores a couple of games in after the mess that the previous DC left behind… or my all time favorite, the many who wanted TO TRADE JUSTIN JEFFERSON thinking we would get a haul for him (we wouldn’t have), as though we would be “the only NFL team” that has to pay a great wide receiver… but were ok with us resigning Kirk Cousins, a born loser, over and over again??!!! Again, thrilled for the real Viking fans! SKOL!!!!
Question: At what point in this miraculous season will people look at Sam Darnold and think, 'This is what people thought he could be when he was first drafted.' Savvy Sam is getting dangerously close to that level of play. Most of his passes today were tight speedballs in a one-foot window. He's placing balls on time, on target and in stride. He's doing good reads, and moving well in the pocket. He has even showed emotional resilience after a drive gets stopped. Sam Darnold's Season of Epic Redemption is coming true. Skol!
Love the coaching staff love. A great coaching staff is the only way going cheap on players works.our depth roster looks solid. The Vikings fans calling to fire KOC/KAM preseason sure are quite now 🤣🤣🤣
There's a guy on NFL Network (Michael F. Florio) who predicted that Stroud and the Texans would put 40+ points on the Vikings. Wondering if that guy still has a job today.
B-Flo, KOC and Darnold rightfully getting most of the praise, it can we give Kwesi some love for the roster construction? He’s been doubted a lot in these parts but he’s done a fine job too!
It's not like vikes got blown out every game last year also. The fact national pundits said 6 wins is a disgrace. We lost the turnovers in 1 score games and beat ourselves. Skol baby
I've been Calling Sam the Ghostbuster since preseason. Admittedly, it was a joke then. Now its starting to stick. Sam Hammer should pick up some steam too considering his grandpa is the legend himself, Dick Hammer.
Great win by the Vikings! At no point was the Texans in this game. The defense is LEGIT this season. And the best part about that is they aren't asking Sam Darnold to do more than manage the game, which has him playing the best football of his career. SKOL!
Darnold is a fairly accurate QB w/ decent arm strength & average processing. Most of his mistakes come courtesy of him mistiming his window, bc he lacks anticipation, & trying to fire in a pass he doesn’t possess the arm talent to complete. He’s also more of a touch passer due to that lack of elite arm strength. So long as he stays within game flow, he’s fine; the moment he tries to be something more than a game manager, he’s cooked. Let’s pray he picks the former & remains highly coachable 🙏🏾
KOC would be better off negotiating to pay Flores than demand some crazy salary increase. He's the biggest key to keeping the ice piercing purple train flying.
As a Vikings fan I am thrilled and cautiously optimistic, been here done that before. Through thick and thin I am always a Vikings homer. I am mostly excited for Sam who has been kicked around like soccer ball. He is proving he was not the problem but was on dog crap teams with dog crap coaches.
I don’t know but to me I think this defense is better than the 09 defense no disrespect this team has a way more edge rushers then the 09 back Then we had Allen , ray edwards and Brian Robinson. Not much for edge rushers the 09 defense was better at stopping the run but pass defense too comfortable playing cover 2 all the time. Image if they had griffin and Anthony Barr on that defense 09 would for sure been a Super Bowl win. 2017 defense was good not as good as our one so far if the 2017 one had a few more pass rushers and if zim didn’t get too stubborn running blitz and man in the playoffs then that would been another Super Bowl win
In a win with SO MANY props to give out, I just wanted to throw it out there that K Will Richard hit the 2ND Longest FG in Vikings history, & as high as that ball hit the post, that kick would'a had the legs for 63-64 yards. That's a nice weapon to have in your back pocket.
We are playing great but Garrett Bradbury and Ed Ingram are a bad bad problem !!!! Lets hope we can get them both on the bench !!! Bradbury killed 3 drives and ingram killed 1 or 2 in this game
I knew Mackey would find a way to again make this about Kirk and his contract but it’s a flawed take…they are still paying Kirk’s contract this year…this defense was on its way to what you see here when Kirk hurt his Achilles last year when he was an mvp candidate. They were a d coordinator away from a deep run in 2022. Also- I’ll say it again you guys clowned on Quesi and the competitive rebuild approach before worshipping it now. You wanted then to rip this down like the bears and Ryan poles. Darnold is further proof that Kirk was good enough to win big with. They might have another really tough decision to make at qb next off season…McCarthy is not the lock you make him out to be.
How's that crow taste, Mackey? Declan? You two clowns were actually sure 100% that the Vikings would lose to the Texans while Judd, who is the biggest Anti-Darnold guy of the group, was the only one who predicted a win. Bon Apetite, fellas.
@@AdamWheeler59 not really but you're entitled to your opinion. I listened/watched their pre-game show and Phil/Declan were so certain this would be a loss and did not even give any room for the possibility of a win so I'm calling them out on it (and I don't care if they never see my so-called "embarassing comment". 🙄)
@@oel734 They make predictions before every game. The Texans are pretty damn good. It's pretty silly to expect them to always pick wins, and they shouldn't be "called out" any time they're wrong about something like this. You're doing a told-ya-so dance to guys that *also* want the Vikings to win. Don't be weird.
Slingin Sam Darnold “America’s Quarterback” back me up Jerome’s.

Yessir
🦅🏈🇺🇸🫡
You what Americas Quarterback has?
*Production Value*
Slingin Sammy!!! I got you guy!!!
Congrats to the Vikings and their fans! They are definitely legit after taking down an NFC and AFC juggernaut in back to back weeks!!
You're back lmfao. How was your week with Dr Phil. I see it didnt work. But what about your Packers? Lulz
@@StillKeepOnLosing his squad won handily today too. You’re the one who needs (has needed) Dr Phil, seeing as the Vikings look like a Super Bowl contender and it kills you. 😅
@@ElJefe0719 You find it funny my stalker telling me all that? Lmfao. I live in your head rent free huh son? Lulz
@StillKeepOnLosing its hilarious seeing you get dicked on every day😂
@StillKeepOnLosing your always on here trolling. Go get a life Psycho.
One if the most fun games I’ve been to 🍻 That stadium was loud
Absolutely Great start, but let's take it easy with this is better than 98, 09, or 17. It's 3 games. Enjoy it, 1 game at a time.
Defense like this is why I became a Vikings fan to begin with. Love this while it lasts
How good is Jones? Always positive yardage… it makes a huge difference that is not always noticed
Aaron Jones is awesome. You are very lucky to have him!
It's a huge advantage, and a rare skill. AP couldn't do it. Dalvin Cook couldn't do it. Very few Vikings backs could do it. Aaron Jones has great vision, and the ability to change direction without losing speed.
I love the way Jones runs. It alway feels like he’s a step ahead, and he hits hard.
I was at the game, it was absolutely rocking, WE WERE THE DIFFERENCE
Declan's mustache lives for another week.😆
Sam Darn-Good!
... I'll show myself out 😅😂
The doors that way 👉🏿👉🏿
😂😂😂😂😂
First Vikings game in 15 years and went with my brother who’s a Texans fan. Phenomenal time. Skol.
On a plane for the second half and getting off airplane mode to immediately see these updates was phenomenal!!! Had the vikes losing this after the emotional win over the niners. We are legit!!!
Vikings are tremendous!! Purple daily kicks ass!!
Just a complete team win. Haven't seen a consistent Vikings squad like this in years. Fun!
Kudos to the CBS National show host who stopped his fellow announcers and said it’s time to acknowledge Darnold and praise him. He has taken constant crap for four years and has had to deal with constant criticism, good for him for playing like a warrior.

Agreed, I'm done with the national media. They will probably still give GB and Det more respect. Keep playing and prove the narrative wrong.
That was Nate Burleson. He played for us…
@calculatedrisk1 - Thanks, I saw that. ESPN and the other pundits still won't acknowledge what they do. I guess they will wait for them to lose to GB.
This is what I have been calling for, since KOC has arrived. The willingness to keep the pedal to the metal. Domination… You have to do this in the NFL, or you lose… Killer instinct…
Yep, he just needed a QB that has a big enough pair to pull the trigger!
YESSS! Its finally nice to not have a cardiac season of losing every game by 3 pts one season then winning games by 3 pts the next.
I like that we haven't played down and let teams back in.
That was a smashing victory for the Vikes!
Darnold is way better than Bridgewater give me a break
Yeah that take was insane
Darnolds got more talent in his hand then Teddy did in his whole body. And I love Teddy.
I have never understood the Teddy love. He was average to below average
@@mlanoue14I like Teddy, but you are absolutely right
Would say that three weeks ago? Most would not
I Love that everyone in the media was saying no way jefferson staying and he isn’t gonna be happy with darnold but already has 3 touchdowns and standing on the bench getting the crowd hyped and screaming let’s go
In my mind we got to see if we are down in 4th quarter see if we can still prevail.. we got to relax!! Enjoy the ride
Do whatever it takes to get Flores to stay for next season need him for next years draft, with the talent on defence. If he stays for next season we’re a contender.
Skol Vikes did it again!!! What do you think about that Detroit pass / hand off to touchdown? I think we should incorporate it in our offense?
Vikings have the best overall 1-2 coaching staff in the league with KOC on O, and Flores on D.
But how can Mike Tomlin not have a single coach of the year award? Tomlin😊 needs a Lifetime Achievement Award asap.
Sam Darnold nickname nomination: The Trojan Horse 🐎
Especially if we see the 49ers in the Playoffs
Diggs did come over to the fans near section 116 before the game started and showed love to the fans. We cheered back to him. He showed love
Next week is the test, outdoors at Green Bay who are well coached also,fun to watch.. this will be the best game so far this year
Who you think starts Willis or Love?
I’m so happy for real Viking fans, especially long suffering ones since the 70’s like myself!

Defence needs a nickname like the old "purple people eaters"; Maybe the "purple crush", or "purple haze".
Purple haze is an awesome name for the defense!
Purple Haze is gaining some traction out there

Sam Darnold's Season of Epic Redemption is coming true. Skol!
Agree. If he continues this a team friendly deal needs to be on the table. And it’s not like he’s a rando he has first round talent.
Listen to this show every week and if the season keeps going like this i expect to Hear a God Emporer QB of the Mn Vikings used.
1 suggestion. You guys need a skol soundbite for first time callers. Drum drum SKOL, drum drum SKOL
Love the coaching staff love. A great coaching staff is the only way going cheap on players works.our depth roster looks solid.

The biggest play of the game was Darnold coming back into the game. SKOL
Kept the streak against the Texans alive, AND broke the BUD jersey curse in a dominant home game. SKOL
Tua isn't the only QB frustrated with Flores.
B-Flo, KOC and Darnold rightfully getting most of the praise, it can we give Kwesi some love for the roster construction? He’s been doubted a lot in these parts but he’s done a fine job too!
Its starting to look like Kwesi is going to have a difficult decision by end of the year at the QB Position..
I was only 3 points off the score. I said 34-10
Great call!
we made sure to scream as lowd as we could today... that sequence of fouls just fired us the hell up
I love the ghostbuster nickname
I was at the game. It was amazing and beautiful God bless
Yo Josh dude!!! that hat is friggin Awesome dude!
It's not like vikes got blown out every game last year also. The fact national pundits said 6 wins is a disgrace. We lost the turnovers in 1 score games and beat ourselves. Skol baby
Uncle Sam is slingin freedom week in and week out 😂
Go watch the Texans today by chat sports post game. The dude absolutely goes nuclear and loses it 😂Lol
Hahahaha! That's hilarious. Thanks for the heads up!
Colin Cowherd just said vikings are superbowl bound after today's win.
I've been Calling Sam the Ghostbuster since preseason. Admittedly, it was a joke then. Now its starting to stick. Sam Hammer should pick up some steam too considering his grandpa is the legend himself, Dick Hammer.
This is the most complete Vikings team I've ever seen.
We need some Texans vent line to hear what the reaction down south is!!!
Great win by the Vikings! At no point was the Texans in this game. The defense is LEGIT this season. And the best part about that is they aren't asking Sam Darnold to do more than manage the game, which has him playing the best football of his career. SKOL!

Gonna go buy a Sam Darnold jersey to see if I can walk in water as well.
Did you know teams always lose after playing the 49ers?????? 😂😂😂😂😂
He said make no mistake, this was not close in the locker room speech
KOC would be better off negotiating to pay Flores than demand some crazy salary increase. He's the biggest key to keeping the ice piercing purple train flying.
Next year please upgrade at guard, center and defensive tackle and go get that SB
Purple Overflo!
Will "The Banger" Richard! Skooooooooooooooooo!!!
VIKINGS 17-0
Big Bank Bill!
Willis,it makes more sense to run the ball against Flores defense
As a Vikings fan I am thrilled and cautiously optimistic, been here done that before. Through thick and thin I am always a Vikings homer. I am mostly excited for Sam who has been kicked around like soccer ball. He is proving he was not the problem but was on dog crap teams with dog crap coaches.
Is no one worried about the Darnold MRI???
I hope you read this so someone else doesn’t take credit for this. But here’s another nickname, Sam "The Ghostbuster" Darnold
Don't overlook the fact that I think we found a kicker?
There in fact was scatters MVP chants for Sammy deep D Darnald
you know what other famous QB threw 4 TD's in a clutch game?
Al Bundy, threw 4 TD's for polk HS in a championship game.
Sam Darnold >= Al Bundy.
Bundy was a fullback. He RAN for those 4 touchdowns.😅
Future is so bright we got to wear shades. 😎
Skolllllll I love this team 🥹💜
DC Flores is the MVP!!
The Giants lost after playing MN and then Rams beat Niners after we beat them, hmmmm.
Said it last week will say it again. This team has a legit shot at the 1 seed. Huge game next week in green bay
When it deck shaved his upper lip!
I don’t know but to me I think this defense is better than the 09 defense no disrespect this team has a way more edge rushers then the 09 back

The FANGIO Defensive Scheme has ZERO on the FLORES Scheme
Props to the converted Kirk Stan for seeing the light and admitting you were wrong. There's 1000s more of you that need to do the same
Sam I am

Definitely Rolle Fingers.
Had to sleep in my Jefferson jersey to celebrate. All my parlays lost but that’s ok cause we dominated lmfao
Well I never had them at 3-0 good job so far
“The red machine” or is that to far 😂

If the $35m WR didn't have butterfingers, we probably win 38-donut. 2 huge drops on 3rd down.
He hurt his finger you dolt . Complaining about jj is insane.
