"Vikings are being dangerously underrated by everybody" - Matt Ryan breaks down NFL Week 16

[@JacobKaufmanMN]

Where did this "Sam stepped in due to McCarthy injury" narrative come from? None of these clowns paid any attention to MN in the off-season after Kirko left... K.O.C. went after Darnold in SF... this was before the draft when a QB in round 1 wasn't a guarantee. Darnold was going to start the season... the McCarthy injury only partially quieted any footsteps Darnold may have heard with bad play... thankfully, that never happened, but the conspiracy theorist in me thought they came out with the season ending McCarthy news to quiet Sam's mind

[@MichaelRucker-ns5po]

The actual Vikings fans, know whats up bro. We all know KOC was very clear that JJ McCarthy was getting a redshirt year and that Darnold was the guy. The national media is very lazy with its takes about a lot of teams frankly. #SKOL Super Bowl homeboy

[@CodyB696]

Yeah before the season started it’s was everywhere that Sam was starting. Lazy media won’t even try to look up anything about the Vikings.

[@SHENDOH]

Blah blah blah nothing blah

[@travdaddy777]

Just sounds better, thats why these fools say it....

[@SunBorn1111]

As a Lions fan i don't want to see the vikings we barely beat them by a field goal but may the best man win

[@Dismembering_Man]

its gonna be a good game for sure

[@zack54991]

Gonna be one of the most exciting games of the year regardless if the vikings/lions win or lose their next game that final game can potentially tie it up

[@heinzbucksandcastle2053]

We will see you soon, cannot wait.

[@travdaddy777]

​@zack54991 vikings must win out to take 1 seed. Lions can lose against san fran and still get the 1 seed if they pull out a win against the vikes, because they won the 1st one.

STOP saying Sam Darnold became the starter after JJ got injured. That was not the case, it was never the case. Sam was signed before drafting JJ. KOC always said Sam was the starter. Maybe the plan was to pass the reigns at some point, but I'm so tired of hearing people say Sam got the starting position after JJ got injured. That was NEVER the case. Sam was the starter. Sam was taking all the 1st teams snaps in practice. Sam was playing with the starters in the preseason game JJ got injured. Sam was ALWAYS the starter coming into the season, whether JJ got injured or not, Sam was going to start week 1! Stop with the false narrative.

[@gastelojallday]

True , Sam was always the starter. The media narrative took over but it id documented , Sam was always the starter

[@neon-acronpsn]

@gastelojallday exactly! KOC has said it since they signed him. Yet here we are in December and there's STILL people saying "He won the starting position" or "He got the starting position bc JJ got injured"... That was never the case...

[@CogitoErgoSum2024]

100%!

[@CogitoErgoSum2024]

Plus, JJ M is short (Maybe 6’0”and bird boned. I don’t trust his durability at the nfl level. Sam is a full 6’4”, thick boned and strong. Arm like a cannon. That, along with his experience. He needs an extension asap.

MINNESOTA VIKINGS ARE SCARY

[@Z-Bart]

Matt Sssssh. We like it that way.

[@SHENDOH]

The O line and secondary have issues and you should know it. The run game is under par. Keep it real. They struggled against Seattle, and if the can't beat GB this weak then we know they are done. If they DO win, they getting to the SB

[@oldschool9469]

If the vikes want to be the best then they have to beat the best. These next two weeks will determine who they really are. I’m hoping they win both games and the 1 seed but as a Vikings fan since their first superbowl i know the choke god is in attendance at every game they play. Got my fingers crossed he takes a vacation this year.

[@gordonstewart8897]

Well...when you lose four Super Bowls, numerous NFC championships and so many early exits in the playoffs, you tend not to strike fear in the hearts of opponents. I see where a lot of folks are saying the Vikings are going all the way. However, a lot of people felt that way in 1970, 1974, 1975, 1977 and, more recently, 1997, 2001, 2010 and 2018; only to have their hearts ripped out once again (I was there for each one). Until they manage to win a Lombardi, I cannot allow myself to believe in the Vikings. I will never root against them; I just don't believe that they will ever win the big one..

[@Bryan-od7nv]

They’ll win one with KOC. Most likely not this year though.

[@TSH-sx3ec]

Bills are also 0-4 in super bowls and lions haven’t even made it. So such a terrible take 😂

[@daviduhr4941]

So it’s better to never have been in a Super Bowl than to have made it and lost… got it.

[@MrSteeDoo]

You sound emotionally stunted

[@thorkagemob1297]

This is a stupid ass statement

[@Wolves2324]

vikings are amazing on the road just fyi

[@atlascinemascc8191]

So….are we going to keep hating on the lions and keep speaking this tired rhetoric “their defense is hurt” yet we continue winning week after week. And we’ve beaten the Vikings regular season 💪🏾🦁💪🏾 lions are the team to beat and the true nfc top team. Especially from a QB that’s never won a Super Bowl sorry not sorry matty

[@neon-acronpsn]

@@atlascinemascc8191 hating on the Lions? Everyone has been on the Lions dick since before the season even started... The were favored to win the NFC North, and the NFC Championship before the season, and people haven't shut up about how dominant they've been... Who has been "hating" on the Lions?

[@200cdl]

To bad they can't stop the run. That will be their downfall, no defense

[@Dustbuster19]

Theyre the #2 rush defense in the league but nice try

[@AK_Ray]

Also the only team with a defensive take away in every single game , this bot is just stirring up shii​@@Dustbuster19

[@oshkiv4684]

This is bait

[@MichaelRucker-ns5po]

Ignore the Bullshit, we did miss Redmond and Pace Jr today though. Us being able to still get stops without them is just a testament to how good this team really is

[@jimnfl7134]

hello, they are #2 against the run, get your facts straight.
