I am just making fun of the 40 different "HOW DUMB ARE WE TO HAVE GOTTEN RID OF MAYFIELD AND DARNOLD???" threads over the course of the season where all these doofuses start chimping out after every good Darnold or Mayfield game. 

I mean, they're both playing a LOT better away from Carolina. Kinda like the dude that's been divorced multiple times and his exes are all in happy long-term relationships. Like bro, I don't think it's a them problem...

The person who was in charge when they were here wasn't exactly Coach of the Year

Not that they played a good team today, but Baker willed them to a win today and made Mike Evans very happy with his record. Darnold has JJ rolling is eyes all night on these over throws

Baker is a gamer. Always has been. Darnold is a very physically talented panicker. Always has been. You have to protect Darnold from himself and the Vikings' OC failed miserably at that tonight. They ran the ball very effectively in the rare occasion they did run it but he just kept putting everything on Darnold's shoulders like he had a 1st ballot HOFer at QB. It was honestly baffling to watch.

I think O'Connell really believes in his turnaround of Darnold.

Yeah, exposed themselves for the first playoff game for no reason in the process. An away game at that. Crazy to think these guys get paid this much and spend 12 hours a day working and can choke on situations so obvious

Maybe tonight will show him that he still has to protect Darnold from Darnold. I mean, damn... when you're running at a 7ypc clip I don't care if you have Joe Montana at QB. RUN the fuging ball!

Kinda like the Falcons today. Honestly they win comfortably if they had simply scrapped every play in their playbook that wasn't a power run to the right. NFL coordinators just outsmart themselves a lot. The first rule is always that if you're doing something and it's working keep doing that thing until they stop it. If you don't then you're your opponent's best weapon. They might still be racking up yards down there in Arthur's Anus just running student body right over and over and over again.

I think with the Falcons the offensive strategy worked, I just don't think they were prepared for us to get a TD on almost every possession. More of a clock management chess match

      Garrett Wilson eyeing Bryce Young

      By Loyalty4Life · Posted

      He's not talking about wanting to go to the Browns or Titans.  Because of the games we did win and how we looked  in the later half of the season with Bryce ballin out is why he's looking our way.  Guys don't want to come to teams that tank unless you back up the money truck and even then many won't consider it.  Winning and the things the organization, coaches and players do that result in the wins.  A teams culture actual makes a difference.  Sometimes you have to tank or cut everything until you're at the bottom so you can start fresh with a high draft pick and something to build around.  This year, this draft and our situation is not one of those times. People may not remember winning or losing a single game but you can damn well bet people remember the stink of losing.  The more it happens the harder it is to overcome.  I would love Garrett Wilson but probably not at the price it would take.  I think Coker is a legit future star and XL still has a ton of potential as does Sanders.  I'd rather extend Thielen or find another good vet with enough tread left on the tire.  A 2nd really good to elite TE would be great.  We ran quite a few 12 personal against the Falcons with Thielen and Coker as our two WRs.

      Giving up a guy like DJ Moore (who wanted to be here) and then effing up not trading Burns (who didn't want to be here) for 2 1sts and then getting the paltry return from the Giants was almost as bad as trading up and gaslighting the fanbase into believing we had a contending roster and were only a rookie QB away from the playoffs. Fitterer ran an absolute masterclass in how to destroy a franchise and fanbase...
