1. This is such a shitty drama filled offseason. I hate it.

2. Look at the names of the QBs we’re talking about. All because of not giving Darnold a contract worth signing…I don’t trust KOC either..

3. If the Vikings move on from JJ, they would be proving what KOC said, Teams fail QB's more than QB's fail teams. If they felt strong enough to pick him 10th overall. They would look pretty stupid giving up on him after 10 starts. People need to step back and look at the bigger picture of last year. If JJ. only played in 10 games, there were 7 other games that could have been won. Two years ago everybody was saying the Bears QB was a bust. Now after his second year, the same people are saying he's "the second coming". The Vikings had a plan, you don't trash your plans because everything isn't going totally according to plans.

4. Who???? Guy's we go through this every offseason the last few years THE VIKINGS DON'T TALK THEY DON'T LEAK ANYTHING

5. yuk not over RB DB

9. I honestly don't see any QB the Vikings bring in beating him out of the QB1.

10. Murray or stick with JJ

12. 😂😂😂😂 hell no to Geno

13. Called Onebar because he records music when the VU Meters hit Onebar. Lupagus because he thinks journalist Mike Lupica is full of gas! 😂😂😂😂😂 😮😮😮😮😮

14. #AP can we get to the draft yet?

15. Sam Darnold has a lot of talent but was a bust before the Vikings. Vikings also brought him in as a low risk, high reward qb option. One name I never hear is Justin Fields. Vikings could get him for a low draft pick and probably get the Jets to kick in on his salary.

16. #AP no way in hell do I want Geno Smith. Lol Not even for league minimum.

17. Geno I think could work #AP

18. #ap

19. Give the kid a chance , he wasnt that bad . I think he tried to hard and wasnt ready . I think he'll be fine .

20. What is even going on?! Are we really talking Geno Smith? It better not be true

21. I'm not too high on Geno either #AP

22. The Vikings don’t have to move on from JJM, but they can own up to the fact that they F’d up by anointing an unproven rookie QB, by creating ZERO competition at the most important position in sports, and then they coddled him by not playing him in the preseason because they had no other viable option and they were fearful that he might get hurt again! Why does it always have to be “JJM is the starter, or he is going to be traded”? The Vikings need to sign Rodgers or Carr as the starter, to a 1-2 year deal for 5-10 million dollars per year, because they are in cap purgatory, and let JJM hold the clip board and he will either develop or NOT, and then they should go all in on drafting another rookie QB in 2027 which is suppose to be a generational QB draft, to compete with JJM!

23. Sayin in 27 please for the love of God
