The difference is that when the Vikings all out blitz...Goff is getting the ball away to open guys.
There are open guys all over the field for the Vikings if their QB would just hit them from time to time.
Third down needed to be a run for sure.
But then....Oliver looked open to me. And Nailor was open.
This doesn't look like a play calling issue IMO. This looks like Darnold is soup brained.
Was just making sure. It's easy to think the line is giving up too much pressure, but if the other team is going to send 6 or 7 every snap, you can't hold the ball. You need to beat that by throwing quicker.
No line is going to look good if the other team is zero blitzing you every snap.
The thing is....that's easy to counter punch we just haven't done it.
But don't blame the line, they got 6-7 guys coming every snap. They're holding up well.
