This low point in the season, feels similar to the end of the 3rd quarter against the Bears. Along came JJ McCarthy, with an electric 4th quarter. Now if we can either convince McCarthy it doesn't matter what the opposing teams secondary looks like, or if we can get every opponent to field a similar, injury ravaged 2ndary as what we saw against the Bears. ...... ..

Putting it all on the quarterback trivializes the performance of the Lions and Rams, who were both very good teams.

Was there some missed passes? Sure there was. It wasn't a great performance by any means. But, one must ask ones self what it feels like to have 280-pound men consistently hitting you play-after-play without protection and what that might do to ones performance. Look up the winning percentage of quarterbacks sacked nine times in a game, and then get back to me.

Lars -> RE: General Vikes Talkk (10/31/2025 7:44:25 AM)
Darnold sucked ass in those last two games - when it mattered most. Anyone watching those games (from their couch or otherwise) can clearly see he shit the bed, along with the team and coaching staff. Bro was seeing ghosts all over the place. He looked like the Darnold that we have seen his entire career. Glad for him he got paid and I personally as a non-NFL GM would not have paid him. Keep in mind also that if he had been paid by MN, we would have had less dollars to spend elsewhere. And as reminder, this does not mean I think KAM is a good GM. I think he is terrible. As for JJM and his injury, my theory is not the grand conspiracy theory and cloak and dagger drama dreamed up to fill a narrative. It is pretty simple: JJM hurt his ankle and they wanted to wait until he was 100% ready to go. Not 80% or 90% like most guys (on a good day) play at. Why? Because if he goes out there not fully healed and gets nicked again, then he has to go back to bench to heal, etc. I imagine he wants to get him out there and have him play through the rest of the season. THAT is what the whole organization needs: get him some reps and experience and let's see what we have. And he is going to do that starting Sunday and thgen maybe we can move on and STFU about all of this silly shit. Now I suppose he could be some double secret agent from Venezuela looking to infiltrate our country, but maybe not, too..... [&:] Oh yeah....and in case any of you forgot.... SKOL!!!!!

TJSweens -> RE: General Vikes Talkk (10/31/2025 8:03:41 AM)
I agree Lars. I think if there was an ankle conspiracy, someone would have leaked it by now. KOC would also have simultaneously trashed his and JJ's credibility with the rest of the team. He would have completely lost the locker room by now.

[sm=dwarf.gif][sm=dwarf.gif][sm=dwarf.gif][sm=dwarf.gif] Also, looking back at our 2024 schedule, it was pretty easy. IMO that made the defense look better than it was. Even in our two wins against a good GB team and a decent SF team, we would jump out to big leads with great play from Darnold and WRs. Then he would throw a dumb INT and let them back into it. To his(Darnold) credit, he did close out SF game with some nice throws. GB games we were just lucky the clock ran out.

QB JJ McCarthy of the Minnesota Vikings was named NFC Offensive Player of the Week for Week 9 of the 2025 season. He received the honor for his performance in the Vikings' come from behind 34-31 overtime victory over the Detroit Lions, where he threw for 280 yards and three touchdowns, while also rushing for a TD and overcoming 10 point 4th quarter deficit to the Lions, and going on to win the game by a 52 yard Will Reichard field goal in overtime.
