HC Kevin O’Connell says the teams last 2 losses against the Lions and Rams back in 2024 weren’t Sam Darnold’s fault, rather putting the blame on him:
“Everybody wanted to put, whether it was the win for 1 seed game against Detroit, or the playoff game against LA, those were not Sam Darnold problems, those were Minnesota Vikings problems… everybody wanted to pin those games on Sam, which I thought was unfair. If anything it should kinda be put on me.”
He is talking with Moss during their fishing trip.

Love the accountability seriously, but then in that case you should have hung on the cross to keep Sammie.
Dearest Uncle Sammy....you made me love you....and I turned on you in the end. My bad, dude.....seems like you are doing ok.
Best Regards, Sticky.
meh. KOC did Darnold no favors, but Darnold certainly shares the blame. He sees ghosts, gets rattled easily. We saw it last year when the Vikes played the Seahawks. Even though our offense did nothing (except throw a pick 6) Darnold got sacked 5 times and was very shaky.

Darnold has his faults. I remember watching that game and saying the same thing. You get to him and his faults show.
SEA was the perfect home for him last season...
But yah, I was fine moving on at the time, thought we had our guy in the wings.
And I'd be wrong.
Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!
