Definitely, as a vikes fan that's why I'm kinda glad that jj will have a whole season to sit back and watch and learn. I wish it was from someone better than darnold but such is life.
I always figured that was the plan for JJ to begin with. Now with his injury he'll probably have some extra time, maybe even a whole other extra year. With apparently one of the toughest schedules in the league and running Darnold out there this year is likely to be a wash and was always going to be, but it's short-term frustration for future long-term success. The only annoying part is that the rest of our division decided to all greatly improve at the same time, so it's going to be the old Black and Blue division bloodbath the next few years and we'll just have to see who comes out on top. We're also paying the proverbial price right now for the absolute cap hell Spielman left behind for Kwesi (as well as Kwesi's disaster of a first draft). We could end up on top in a few years or become the next Lions languishing in the division cellar for a long time. Who knows with the division right now.
I feel like if the Vikings were planning to sit JJ year one, they would've targeted someone other than Sam Darnold as their bridge starter. We'll see if the injury gives JJ more time to learn the offense, but I think it's hard to call a major injury a "good thing" for anyone.
Not at all saying the injury was "good". And to me, Darnold seems like an ideal bridge QB: someone they could get for a short contract on a budget while they get JJ ready. It may not necessarily be pleasant to suggest the team is basically writing off a year before Week 1, but they're clearly looking at the long term rather than the short term. It's a pain that we Vikings fans will just have to live with this season, but we're quite used to pain, lol.
