For God's sake Haley. BLITZ. DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT. The second I saw them show it and drop out of it I knew they were going to give Darnold all day and get burned on 3rd and long again.
I don't buy it. Most teams had Minnesota pegged as the last place team in this division this year. Clearly they were underestimated, but now they're a talent superior team and Darnold is an MVP level QB after a 3+ game sample size? I don't buy it.
Minnesota is obviously the better team today. I never didn't "acknowledge" that.
I pointed out that who you are in Week 18 can and usually is vastly different than your Week 4 team. A September game result isn't necessarily indicative of a massive talent disparity between two teams. That's all.
I'm not sure who will really be the better and more talented team after Week 18. Who you are in Week 4 is massively different than who you are in Week 18.
I do know one thing for sure -- Matt LaFleur did an absolutely piss poor job getting the Green Bay Packers getting ready to play a football game today.
It's not about Narveson being the problem in this game. It's about still having a massive flaw at a position that will end up costing you a big game later (like Anders arguably did in the playoffs last year) if you can't eventually fix the problem.
Remember Week 1 and prior when Narveson was saying all the right things, the coaching staff was saying all the right things, and we had a nice warm fuzzy that we finally had our kicker?
Goes to show how much that stuff means.
