WHO THE **** DECIDED ON CARSON WENTZ, OVER Daniel Jones?


Daniel Jones did.

It was widely reported, at the time, that we offered him more money than the 14M he got from the Colts.

But he saw a better chance to start in Indy.

This is a dysfunctional franchise. They made a soft wr their centerpiece to build around. It doesn't get much dumber than that.

Sad watching good teams draft quality players in rds 3, 4 and 5.

We took a fringe freaking WR who is is a punt gunner in the 4th.
Then give up a 4th round draft pick for an absolutely washed WR

We are not a serious franchise right now, because of the front office.
The weaknesses were masked a little bit last year, but are getting exposed big time this year.

FA blew up in their face this year, and just a terrible decision to roll with McCarthy this, even though it's painfully obvious he wasn't ready.

I understood the draft pick, you gotta find your QB, but the development and assessment of his readiness to play is concerning.

The fact that we have a GM who has routinely missed on talent, I have very little faith this is the guy

Felton was a 3rd rounder.

Since we are out of it, it will interesting to see if we continue the 'feel good' farewell tour for HSmith and Theilen. We should be seeing in Ward can play safety and if Felton can contribute as a 3rd/4th WR.

Whatever KAM's buyout is, do it. Bring in a new GM as quick as possible and turn it over to him. Let him decide KOC and JJM's fate. Not sure how it would work with the Scouts but ours aren't doing a very good job.

That was ridiculous before I knew he was so far behind. No challenger and gave him almost the fewest snaps possible.

It's not about Darnold, it's about having a quarterback that went 14-3 with the exact same clowns around him. I tried to tell you guys, don't change what is working.

It ain't easy to go 14-3.

Sam Darnold is a good football player. He had a rough ending in Minnesota, but the guy can play. You cannot win in the NFL without a good quarterback.

McCarthy is who he is. What is very troublesome is that our HC(QB Guru) said he was ready and barely played him in the PS. The kid is miles from being ready and may never be.

...



You mean Felton, he of the 1 career catch? Guess Thielen, with his glorious 8 catches is taking Felton's reps.

Gave up the equivalent of a late 3rd for those two. Why even draft Felton if he is not going to play... just pass on the pick.

Note: Felton was pick 102, a comp pick, the last pick in the 3rd. If there were no comp picks he'd have been a high 4th.

This staff has no clue how to develop players. Couple that with drafting a 5th round project in the top 10 and what could possibly go wrong? Maybe they can learn a lesson in this but I doubt it. Don't take a player with a blue chip pick that couldn't produce in college.

Read a striking comparo. Since 2010, the NFL's designated dysfunctional team, the Jets, have won two playoff games. Since 2010, the Vikings have won two playoff games.

After looking it up, saw a couple of tidbits:
- 1987 is the last time we won two playoff games in a season.
- 1-4 Wild Card games since 2010.

Cousins was at a very different point in his career. He was at the end of his career and no way were the Vikings going to give him the kind of money he wanted. Darnold was entering his prime.

I know it sounds like a logical argument when you only talk about the records. 14-3 is not much different than 13-4. However, they were at very different points in their respective careers.

Like I said five weeks ago, McCarthy is KAM's guy. I believe it more now than I did five weeks ago. KAM thought he was Bill Beane, saving money while showing off his drafting skills. The problem is, he's an analytics guy and not a football guy.

I don't think Kevin O'Connell wanted McCarthy from the beginning. He wanted either Darnold or Jones. Now he's stuck with a guy that will eventually get him fired.

I'm hot and cold on O'Connell. He hasn't shown the ability to change culture. He seems like a glitz and glitter guy that wants to be their friend.

Fair enough. I'll agree with them being at different points. I liked Sam but didn't think he'd get us there. If he leads Seattle to a playoff win in the very first year and looks good doing it I may have to admit I'm wrong. At least he can complete a 15 yard pass without it seeming to be a miracle.

For the Wilf's the main stat is this......
2005: The Wilf family purchased the team for $600 million.
2025 (August): The team's valuation is $6.28 billion, with a projected valuation of around $6.8 billion from other sources

They are making money hand over fist, why change anything.....

14-3

Go root for Seattle. You Darnold sucking troll..

It's not about Darnold, it's about having a quarterback that went 14-3 with the exact same clowns around him. I tried to tell you guys, don't change what is working.

It ain't easy to go 14-3.

While I agree with this post are you saying it was easy to go 13-4? Because we were both ready to dump Cousins after that playoff game.

Cousins was at a very different point in his career. He was at the end of his career and no way were the Vikings going to give him the kind of money he wanted. Darnold was entering his prime.

I know it sounds like a logical argument when you only talk about the records. 14-3 is not much different than 13-4. However, they were at very different points in their respective careers.

Fair enough. I'll agree with them being at different points. I liked Sam but didn't think he'd get us there. If he leads Seattle to a playoff win in the very first year and looks good doing it I may have to admit I'm wrong. At least he can complete a 15 yard pass without it seeming to be a miracle.

The ending was rough for Sam. The offensive line was a complete mess and solid defensive coordinators had figured that out. The Rams sacked him nine times. Not many guys are going to have a good ending with that scenario.

I will always choose results over hope. Hope almost always leads to disappointment when it comes to the Vikings.

Even the mighty Mahommes looked pedestrian in the SB w/o good protection.

Was never a fan of the pick but of course I wanted him to succeed. Its painful watching this guy play at this point.
