Sam Darnold

Sam Darnold

MINQB • #14

Sam Darnold completed 33-of-43 passes for 377 yards with three touchdowns and one interception in the Vikings’ 27-25, Week 17 win over the Packers.

Darnold’s interception came when he tried to fit a ball between two defenders on a flag route from T.J. Hockenson. Outside of that, it was an outstanding effort from Darnold in a game the Vikings essentially dominated from the start. That’s his sixth game with at least three passing scores, and he was spreading the ball around with eight different receivers catching passes. Darnold and the Vikings now have a massive contest against the Lions in Week 18 that will determine who gets homefield advantage in the NFC. Darnold is truly deserving of MVP consideration for his work in 2024 no matter what happens in that game.
