TELL THE TRUTH MONDAY: Top-10 Storylines from the 14-3 Minnesota Vikings

33 comments

1. We wouldn't stand a chance against the top 3 AFC teams anyway. I prefer to avoid going 0 – 5.

   Also, I believe that some players have the make-up to not wilt in the big games, and many don't. We may have confirmed that Darnold falls in the latter group. At least McCarthy didn't fold under college football's brightest lights.

2. No offensive adjustments. A lot of bad in this game but the interior offensive line is the main problem. Defense played good until they got tired. Time of pos…Detroit 36:12 Minn 23:48

3. It felt to me like Darnold was too nervous/hyped and thus putting too much juice on the balls. And KOC didn't do a good job of reacting to the pressure Detroit was giving with his play calls.

4. Lions Oline reminds me of 2017 eagles oline

5. There is now way the league was going to let them win over the chosen ones. Guarantee after MNF it will be a Sat game so they can win again!

6. the teams the vikings lost to this year…..lions and rams…….god speed

7. 4 passing play with no runs

8. Darnold had a terrible day against the Lions, no doubt. He missed wide open targets, and he was "off," throughout the entire game. If he gets back to his winning form, the Vikings are a serious Super Bowl contender. Time will tell.

9. Completely and obviously fixed game and astonishingly obvious but you can't agree because you make money on this channel. Whole world controlled by money!

10. Players are highly controlled by astonishingly huge contracts that have been blowing up and no one on earth is worth the amount they make, no one! So they want to build a young quarterback as a money making asset so will lose enough to welcome him as QB next year! They also are going to setup a rematch on two weeks for what, more money 💰 🤑💰

11. Three of the fastest receivers on the nfl can't outrun Dbacks all game. All receivers being hammered, hang on and interfered with all game long but only a couple calls, are you people seriously this foolish??? Receivers just slow down a few steps and all covered, places salable pressure on Darnold you'll fall for him making obvious easy throws and misses. It was the most puppeteered show and they waited to schedule to get most bang for buck in prime last game of season. Receivers barely complained at all. Now let's go back 30 years. The coach would be pulling his hair out, the receivers would be in the refs faces and you foolish fans fall for this nonsense every week. Indoor field goal but curved more than Bert B's greatest curve he ever threw. It was going straight then a hard right, come'on your indoctrinated fools!

12. The offensive line and we need a running back next year idk , we need to understand this game is about moving the sticks not big plays, when Goff isn’t playing great they turn around and hand the ball off , and move the chains , we need two backs one in the passing and one that can take the load or a mix , with a oline Sam can play but like any QB if he’s having a bad day like last night can we run the football ask the eagles and Baltimore ohh and the lions 🦁 I new this would bite us , but it’s not like we didn’t play bad so let’s see what happens Monday

13. Is that really McCarthy? I am pretty sure that is not him. I know the media said it was during the game but that looks nothing like him

14. Where is Daniel jones hook him up he eliminated us last year

15. Darnold has to get the ball out faster. He's got the squad. His reads have been good all season. Sometimes you just gotta get the ball out. The Lions defense had him shook. Most of his risks were overthrown, which is good for ball safety, but he has to get the ball out faster.

16. I remember few years back. Vikings pict. Ali Manning like 6 times tore Giants up. That year. Eli Manning and the Giants won the super bowl. One bad game. 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️. Next week needs to be better obviously

17. Vikings go win the Superbowl 😂😂😂😂

18. Lions fan. I thought Viks were gonna win. Good learning experience for both teams and in my humble opinion Viks are dangerous. You don't win 14 games with smoke and mirrors.

19. Jones is hurt now….AGAIN….

20. Rams 31 Vikings 23

21. Best thing that could've happened to them…Their back to being disrespected again and nobody thinks they're gonna do anything. They got the League right where they won't them (unintentionally) !!

22. Sadly, nothing can motivate Darnold and his teammates after this embarrassment of a loss. Good news is Vikings still have JJ McCarthy and he can bring magic to Minnesota for years to come.

23. Its over. Thank goodness Darnold showed us that big money is not worth the risk.

24. Agreed. Offense line SUCKS. PERIOD!

25. So the fact that the defense allowed a running back to score 24 pts on them is darnolds fault? 😂😂😂😂 yeagh ok. So the fact that the reffs have been calling & not calling calls when ever in detroit infavor of detriot thats darnolds fault. The fact that every pass was catchable that people are saying darnold threw bad passes on is darnolds fault not the recivers fault for not having their feet & legs set to jump or mistiming the jump. But if this was cousins ohhhhh he played a peeeeeeeerrrrrrrfffect game it was everyone elses fault. The fact that the offensive line got physically dominated is darnolds fault , the fact that the defensive line got dominated is all darnolds fault. Please get rid of darnold please put in mcarthy and go back to your comfort zone of being big time none tbreats again.

26. the delusion is crazy from vikings fans the better team won all that explaining dont matter someone got a L and someone got a W thats its

27. This clown running his mouth leading up to the game again lmfaooooo, and that is how many games you have lost in a row to us now? The score was exactly what it was supposed to be you got slapped again lmao. You played a weak af schedule that is the only reason you won 14 games lmfaoooooo. Vikqueens are frauds just like I have said they were. Funny you are not revisiting any of your previous comments. LMFAOOOO. We own you and we own the North.

28. Delusional vikqueens fans are funny af lmaooooooooooo. Almost as bad as bears fans.

29. Sam Darnold is who we thought he was, water always finds it's level. Hold your L……again…….we own you and we own the North and there is nothing you can say period lmfao.

30. This is the same vikqueens team that lost at home to Daniel Jones in the playoffs lmfaoooooo.

31. Here we go crying making excuses saying receivers were interfered with lmfaooooo, we had more penalties called on us and you had plenty of holding calls that were not called if you are playing that game lmfaooooo. Typical vikqueens fans talk all that crap before the game, they can't back it up on the field…again, then the excuses come raining down.

32. a game through 3 quarters, lmfaoooo too bad the game is 4 quarters long and you did get worked lmfaooooo.

33. Bro looks and sounds like he is about to have a nervous breakdown all over the place. LMFAO.
