Sam Darnold’s Disastrous Playoff Debut Leaves Vikings Facing Major Offseason Decision

Sam Darnold's promising 2024 season came to a sudden and painful end with two lackluster performances in the most critical games of his career, including a disastrous playoff debut. Darnold was overwhelmed by the Los Angeles Rams' defense in a 27-9 loss that ended the Minnesota Vikings' season despite a 14-win regular season. Darnold struggled under pressure, taking nine sacks, throwing an interception, and losing a fumble in a game that highlighted his struggles in high-pressure situations. This performance, following a poor outing against the Detroit Lions in the season finale, leaves the Vikings with a tough decision. Do they re-sign Darnold, who was signed as a bridge quarterback but performed well enough during the regular season to make a Pro Bowl, or do they hand the keys to rookie quarterback J.J. McCarthy? With Darnold’s playoff struggles fresh in their minds, Minnesota will need to carefully assess the future of their quarterback position. #SamDarnold #Vikings #NFLPlayoffs #QuarterbackDecision #NFLOffseason #MinnesotaVikings #JJS #NFL2024 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ► Welcome to 24h Online - US Football 🏈 ► Here, you'll find everything you need to know about American football.
