I love that immediately after the goal, they play the guitar solo section of “Freebird” in the arena.
The International Olympic Committee must think that’s the sound of Americans going nuts.
Yes the Vikings look kinda dumb for the letting Sam Darnold go. But let's not forget the Ravens also let Mike Macdonald go. Just two bag fumbling purple teams.
Does it hurt to see Darnold win it somewhere else? Yes. Do I think he would’ve made a difference this year? Yes. Would the Vikings have won the Super Bowl with him? No. We wouldn’t have won it with anyone.
Sam Darnold is a Super Bowl champion. I’m not saying it to poke fun. This is what happens when someone refuses to fold. He took every bad hand he was dealt, never whined, never pointed fingers, and just kept grinding. He deserves this moment.
Justin Jefferson says the QB decisions for the #Vikings this past offseason were “very tough” to make:
“You’re looking at Sam, he won us 14 games this previous season, why not bring him back… then you obviously look at Daniel Jones, and seeing the things he has done in NY, he has a freakishly great ability to throw that rock, great spin on that ball… then you hear about the rumors with Aaron Rodgers, obviously that’s a dream to play with one of the best in this game… but you think about what you have right there in front of you, and at that moment… once JJ was the main guy, it was just about pouring into him as much as we can to make sure he was that guy for us.”
