This will eventually lead to Matt Flynn 2.0 with Jalen Milroe reprising the role of pre goofy Russell Wilson.

I feel a bit for Uncle Sammy, great year last season but his core narrative didn't change: seeing ghosts. I think he's going to have a short leash with Seattle fans unless he starts out red hot and builds some equity.

I think Mike McDonald got his own Lamar Jackson.

Darnold is going to whither behind that porous Seattle OL.

Oh my...what the hell is it about Sam Darnold that does this? I swear, any other QB in the NFL can throw a couple picks in his first public practice in a new offense and nobody gives it a 2nd thought. Sam does it and suddenly "is he still your starting QB"? LOL.

The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was making an NFL GM give Sam Darnold a bag of money to be his starter.

This is the same fan base and media who just went through 3 years of Geno Smith, Darnold will be an improvement and will be okay there. He has a cannon of an arm and can really sling it into tight spaces , is much more mobile than given credit for and he has a good feel for the pocket. He is not going to be NFL elite, but he will be a solid starter who will do his part to help them win games.

Its that OL oh my...

I feel bad for Sammy, I'm sure he was salivating to sign here, especially after FA dust settled

Darnold is going to Darnold at the end of the day. Major reason that despite his regular season success, I shed no tears seeing him leave in free agency. Seattle played this right though getting younger at the position and having a succession plan behind the starter in a high upside rookie. So Seattle won, Darnold won, and the Vikings won in this equation

1 ply toilet paper vs a Taco Bell binge is sturdier. It’s going to be brutal.

They did draft Grey Zabel, but the right side of that line is still ass. As bad as the Vikings OL was at times last year, it was still better than Seattle's.
