Yep, still here
Darnold is going to lose $40 million per year in a week.
The old Darnold is definitely back.

Raise? They need to rip off the band aid and let him go. All they're doing is going a game or two over .500, lose in the wild card round and draft in the high teens/early twenties. They've needed a new QB since about 2018 and are never going to find a good one drafting 18th.
With the Rams losing today, and hosting the #5 seed next weekend, the Vikings could wind up having their season go as follows:
- Win 5 straight to get to 5-0;
- Lose back-to-back games to the Lions then Rams to fall to 5-2;
- Win 9 straight to get back in the mix at 14-2;
- Lose back-to-back games to the Lions then Rams to end the season.
Quite frankly, that's the type of poetic failure the Vikings excel at throughout their history. Place your bets accordingly.
time to bring in Danny Dimes
The old Darnold is definitely back.
That Detroit game shook his confidence. He was better tonight, but nothing like the self-sure QB he was for most of the season.
The number of QBs trying that 12 inch wrist flick of Stafford's and claiming it was a non-grounding forward pass going forward is going to fun.
My sister lives in the DC area. She HATES the Commanders specifically for this reason and the ridiculous over-coverage the local media gives them.
