So the 2 choices for Darnold are that he’s either Josh Allen or a fraud? Seems very limiting.

You don't have to be Josh Allen to not be a fraud. If you did, then Love is a fraud too

Did I miss somebody saying somewhere that Darnold was the main reason for the 13-2 record? It has to be either that or he's a fraud? Get out of the "First Take" world, man. I think everybody recognizes that he's a pretty nice spot. And yes, he's also carried his own weight in things.
Josh Allen has 5 years of equity being an awesome QB.
Guess Love is a fraud then also since Darnold has better numbers, a few weeks ago Love was leading league in INTs while playing 2 less games and also had lowest completion percentage in league.
Darnold's numbers are better than Allen's. Hence the fraudulent claim.
The numbers suggest that Darnold is better. Love is much closer to Allen than he is to Darnold.
He's a fraud. Product of the system. Same system that helped Mullens throw for over 300 yards in 3/5 games last year.

Keep using those one leg numbers. See if you can figure out when the brace came off his leg:
WK 4: 32-54 389 yds 4 TDs 3 INTs (first game back from sprained MCL)
WK 5: 15-26 224 yds 2 TDs 1 INT
WK 6: 22-32 258 yds 4 TDs 1 INT
WK 7: 24-33 220 yds 3 TDs 2 INT
WK 8: 14-22 196 yds 0 TD 1 INT (left w/ groin injury)
WK 9: 23-39 273 yds 0 TD 1 INT
WK 10: BYE
WK 11: 13-17 261 yds 1 TD 1 INT
WK 12: 13-23 163 yds 2 TDs 0 INT
WK 13: 21-28 274 yds 2 TDs 0 INT
WK 14: 12-20 206 yds 1 TD 0 INT
WK 15: 20-27 229 yds 2 TDs 0 INT
WK 16: 16-28 182yds 1 TD 0 INT (pulled from game in blowout win)
You straight up don't know what you are talking about with the completion percentage sentence.

Keep telling yourself that I'm sure it allows you to sleep well at night despite your team being 3rd in the division.
I do not care if vikings fans like Love. I would be pissed too if my team was a perpetually little brother in the division. The packers organization agrees with me that Love is a franchise QB and that's why he got the contract. The vikings organization does not think Darnold is the guy even with him currently sitting at 7th in yards passing and 5th in touchdown passes. They think he's a fraud and a product of the system.

No, they think they have a QB that could be as good or maybe better someday on a rookie contract that will allow them to improve things elsewhere on the roster to make the team overall, better. That's simply good management even if Sam isn't a fraud like Love.
I know Love has serious issues making routine passes and I’ve been watching him fail at it healthy or not for two seasons now. Hes garbage

We just don't think you're either an MVP or a fraud like you seem to believe.

The stats say that Darnold is better than Allen. Is he better than Allen? If so, why wouldn't your team sign him ASAP? If not, you're admitting his numbers are inflated (ergo, fraudulent to the real Darnold).

Darnold is not better than Allen. Allen is the leader for MVP.
If you believe he's better than Allen just based on some numbers, then you don't know football very well despite accusing Vikings fans of that already.
That said, just because he's not in the running for MVP doesn't mean he's a complete fraud. There are many degrees between MVP and fraud.

First of all, nothing has or hasn't been done yet. The Vikings organization hasn't shown that they think one way or the other. And before you say it, it's not a reasonable expectation for any conclusion to be reached while the season is ongoing.
I keep forgetting that the 31 other teams don't have offensive systems. Their players just line up and run wherever they want. Especially that LaFleur-coached team. No system there at all, lol.

I do not agree with that. I think Darnold is a very good QB. He's just not on Josh Allen's tier.I’m glad you agree Darnold’s numbers are fraudulent
Sam is on Love's tier. If Sam is a fraud, so is Love.
Love doesn’t have WR1 in the NFL, that’s for sure. In fact, I think Mr DUI is probably better than the packers receivers too.
You wish.
