The Minnesota Vikings have been floated as a landing spot for Jets QB Aaron Rodgers, while Sam Darnold has been linked to New York.

Sam Darnold’s shaky finish shouldn’t ruin his impressive season or impact his future. Several NFL teams need a franchise quarterback and Darnold proved he can be that guy in Minnesota, becoming the first quarterback to record 14 wins in his first season with a team.

Should the Vikings pay Darnold after his (mostly) excellent season? Or should they go with McCarthy and spend that money at other positions?

Can Minnesota and its fan base forget the quarterback's back-to-back clunkers for a 2025 reunion? Or is it J.J. McCarthy time?

McCarthy missed his entire rookie campaign with a knee injury that could impact his readiness next year and he has yet to take a regular season snap in the NFL. Jones could sign a one-year contract with the Vikings similar to the $10 million deal Darnold inked in 2024 and serve as a backup and/or bridge QB to McCarthy.

After his best season as a pro, Darnold was off his game for a second straight week. How will it impact Minnesota's offseason plans?
