    I'm cautiously optimistic considering Darnold has only started on awful teams so far in his career. He was an elite talent coming out of college and he's the age you'd expect a QB to come into his own. As long as he's not turning the football over multiple times a game, the Vikes will have a chance with a seemingly improved Flores defense.

    It’s amazing that the six-year veteran still has the higher ceiling than the rookie… If Sam stays healthy, he is far and away the better quarterback over JJ McCarthy. If you watch film of Sam Donald from college, to pro, and JJ McCarthy‘s last two years in Michigan, you can see that Sam Dan has always been more proficient in some of the little intricacies of the position, regarding touch, timing, anticipation, feel for the pocket,making off platform throws. JJ McCarthy has a lot of physical gifts, and is hyper athletic with a whip for an arm, but some of the things he struggles with, like anticipating windows opening, throwing the ball before the receiver, makes their breaks downfield, not trying to play hero ball… I think he needs some major development, even then as a Viking fan, his ceiling compared to Jordan love and Caleb Williams is being the third best quarterback in division… And no team has ever been consistent contenders with the third best quarterback in their division… Will be happy to watch him for a year, hopefully so, since Sam Donald can be reckless with the football and has injury concerns. But more likely than not, he will be playing.

    I realize that this is the time of year where the media needs stories and topics so they nit pick everything but this is absolutely a non-story. Nothing to read from a rookie with less than 2 months into his tenure with the team not being the starter not even into training camp yet.
