22 comments

1. Stephen A just talks over people when he knows they're right. No one is ok with darnold laying an egg but recognize that it wasn't just him. All 11 on offense plus the hc laid one also.

2. The game wasn't just on sam darnold. Let's be honest here

3. Last night showed that the two most significant injuries to the NFL playoffs were for the two teams playing.

   If Hutchinson is healthy, nobody is stopping Detroit this year.
   If Darrisaw is healthy, that Vikings offense is impossible to defend.

   And Detroit overcame their major injury (plus many, many, many more) way better than Minnesota did.

4. Mr Mayonnaise is not a racist remark? Then call SAS and Unc, Dark Chocolate, and see how they respond.

5. Shannon is the fakest dude in this industry now. Straight sucka

6. Darnold actually missed a few passes last night to Jefferson and his TE. Overthrown and too high

7. 6:40 is such a CTE moment bro 🤣Shannon just repeated what he said. U can see the brain switch when he goes “UH..UH”

8. I am a life long Vikings fan… I warned my fellow minnesotan's not to get too hyped about the Vikings a month ago (and throughout the season) as they were winning games Many told me, "no, it feels different this time around, they look really good"! I reminded them about our history, and all the great teams and players we have had and in the end had nothing to show for it: 4 trips to the Super Bowl, and "0" wins! I stated, in the end they do not produce when it really matters! Interestingly enough, after the GB game, I started leaning towards what they were saying to me… perhaps this is a bit different, yes, just maybe!? But then I heard Darnold say… that this game against the Lios, "is just another game"… and right then, I knew we were doomed! In the aftermath of yesterday's meltdown game, I am reminded that I should have simply stayed in my 'lane of pessimism' and not dared have walked over to the 'green grass' of a new Vikings era of success!

9. Jared Goff grounding in the endzone and not getting any flag set the tempo and tone of the game.

10. Did any of these guys watch the game i know Stephanie A Smith didn't because Jefferson wasn't open at all in the game he was held on every play. Darnald was off on his passes because Detroit held or interfered the Vikings receivers on every play and Goff had time to throw because the Vikings defenders were held every play! The lions didn't beat the Vikings the refs did. Watch the game Stephanie and you'll see!!!

11. Dan is the only reasonable one here and he's getting teamed up on

12. It always comes down to the "Big Uglies" as John Madden lovingly and respectfully called the men in the trenches…

13. The Lions are better.Its simply obvious.

14. Dan is right. ya’ll should be giving detroit their flowers

15. Orlovosky is a quarterback apologist

16. Is there any context to the “Mr Mayonnaise” comment? Cuz that sounds racist

17. SAS and Sharp think just cause they screaming they are smarter.

18. GETTEM DAN O

    Why is Stephen A so disrespectful to him all the time? He speaks to him with such disdain.

19. Just keep pushing the goal post back Stephen A that’s what you do bro and it’s laughable

20. I don't trust Patrick Mahomes. Chiefs one and done this year 👍

21. Lions being doing this all year. It doesn't matter who's hurt, rhey winning regardless. Lions is just a great team.

22. Stephen A is the man who never owns up when he's wrong and ALWAYS picks the safest take. VERY ANNOYING EGO
