Jaxson Dart is going to start his 2nd game against Philly

[Zanary]

Couple things here: his peers have played many more games and his peers, other than Nix, were drafted before him. Fans forget he's 22 years old and was the 5th QB taken. Minnesota was never ever going to get Williams, Daniels or Maye. Why anyone would lose faith already is a head scratcher, he's played 2 games. But he does need to play and needs to stay healthy.

Like I said, it's unfair...but, first season ended after a partial preseason game. Horrible fluke, but we hoped the extra study time would be a hidden plus.

Second season: 3 rough quarters but a win over da Bears, followed by a team-wide s**t-fest against the Falcons where JJM gets hurt AGAIN.

Yes, I know his age and draft position, and I stated that I'm backing him...but, I'm pointing out that he needs to show both the ability to stay on the field and the ability to really lead the offense with some consistency, or the same fan base that's basically roasted every QB since Favre will be poised to relegate him to "bust" status.

He's a very young QB and a new dad, he doesn't need the mega-nega clowns on him, too.

I hear you, but the haters don't bother him. Its only fuel for the success. That pick 6 against Chicago should have been devastating, in the context of the game at that time and how he and the O-line had performed. But....it just solicited a 'where would you rather be?' and the epic 4th quarter.

I'd tell fans to hang in there. The good stuff is coming.
