The NFL has go to be loving what was probably the best Thursday night game I can remember watching.

TNF has been pretty solid this year in general.

Also, while having to own 14 different streaming services to watch games is annoying-- I will say the 4K PQ on TNF (Amazon Prime), SNF (Peacock), and the stray Netflix game has been much appreciated by this fan/tv snob. Long overdue but still, nice to see and enjoy.

I am rooting for Sammy D. Going to be rooting for Seattle in the playoffs.

To me the path looks pretty paved for Philly to get there again but yeah, if they falter the NFC really is wide open. AFC too. Wish the Vikings were a part of it but it'll be great entertainment regardless.

They talk about teams going "Full Rams" but last night the Rams went "Full Vikings." Congrats on the epic collapse, Sean McVay.

2 ints

84.2 passer rating

My $$ would have been on the Rams all the way - no Davante made a difference.

But you know what they say about ifs and buts...

Yeah, Seattle may have won this one, but I wouldn't feel good with paying Darnold 100 mil for that type of game.

Yeah, me neither. Uncle Sammy still makes Uncle Sammy mistakes. He's a beautiful thrower of the pigskin, but I still maintain he's a bed wetter in aggregate big moments. JJ, even with all of the raw rookie moments, still has had game winning drives, divisional road wins and big 4th down moments already. In what, 8 games started? The moment will never be too big. I think with that and his obvious physical talent, maybe the team gets somewhere finally they've never been. Maybe. Long way to go yet obviously. But he's only 22....and I think his confidence has never been higher as a pro as it is right now.

JMO, but next year, I think he's going to grab the QB1 job with both hands and never look back.

I am with you. And for my sanity and that of the rest of Viking fandom, I hope you are right.
