Congrats to Sam Darnold

I am not one who believes that "bad Sam" is just waiting in the wings, but I do agree that KOC could learn something (for JJ) from how they limited Sam's exposure. Especially when you consider that the Vikings had a better YPC than the Seahawks and still ran the ball 100 less times than they did.

Tom Brady folded under pressure.  QBs need a mostly clean pocket to thrive.  Darnold has a bit more history of folding under pressure than other more established QBs.  Just thinking that KOC is the one that has to grow, he has to learn to feel the game and call it accordingly.

Way to go Sam, you found a team that knew how to utilize you! Hope KOC was paying close attention too…

I'm happy for Darnold. I was one that thought he would always fold in the big games and you could never win a title with him. He proved me and everybody else wrong. The biggest stat of them all for Darnold, zero interceptions this postseason. Seattle ran the football and didn't ask Darnold to throw it 40 times. OConnell would have had him chucking until his arm fell off
