Well, if I hold my nose just right my hand also blocks my vision. So I guess I wonβt have to smell the stench, or view the abomination of Darnold playing QB for the Vikings.
The one positive of signing Darnold is that he is not Jameis Winston.

Darnold sucks. Maybe KOC can turn him around but I doubt it. Heβs a bridge guy. It doesnβt matter if itβs Darnold or some other retread. 2024 is a transition year to a new QB. Kam and KoCs jobs ride in drafting the right guy in the draft. Thatβs all that matters. The Vikings arenβt building for a SB run in 2024. We havenβt dumped Kirk for Darnold. We dumped Kirk to clear the path and the cap for a new young QB.

while he has had his chances to lead the Jets and Panthers, this will by far be his best opportunity. I was leaning to Sam due to his youth and upside.

I think any rookie will he starting by week 7. Darnold is not good, but not like there were any quality QBs left to pick from so canβt be too shocked. I do think this gives an indication though for what type of rookie QB weβll take

Going to be a long year, we could very well be 'cellar dwellers.' for a while In the NFC North... I can live with that as long as they start building a TEAM!!!!!!

This is really good to hear. Word was Darnold was also talking to Denver.
Darnold is only 26 years old, which sounds crazy with 6 years in the league. He can provide perfect compliment to the QB room.
I hope Kwesi keeps addressing the needs in this FA and the draft. Feels like we are taking good steps.
None of this is against Cousins but if you look at that contract it is Fkn NUTS!

Ditto. I'll add to it, Yuck, Blah, disgusting... $10M? He's getting more than Jones...I'd rather have Aaron Jones or Ty Chandler throwing passes instead of Darnold.

Watch him be absolutely fantastic. Surrounded by talent with great coaching.....
I don't think QB is going to be priority no.1 in this draft.

We will see, sometimes the lights come on. Generally they donβt. Not sure that Darnold beats out Mullens and/or Hall. Would have preferred Minshew as a bridge but what can you do.
