If the fat lady had sung, Joe Buck certainly didn\u2019t hear her.<\/p>\n
A frustrated Vikings team looked lethargic, dismayed and shocked as they slowly went to the line of scrimmage and were still running the ball Monday while trailing the Rams by 18 with 6:24 remaining.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Vikings, I assume, are aware they\u2019re down 18 points,\u201d Buck said on the telecast as Minnesota allowed the play clock to dwindle down to nine seconds in an embarrassing 27-9 season-ending defeat.<\/p>\n
\t“The Vikings I assume are aware they’re down 18 points.” \u2013 Joe Buck, mocking Minnesota’s clock management”I was kinda thinking the same thing.” \u2013 Troy Aikman”I mean they’re running the ball, they’re slow to the line.” \u2013 Buck. \ud83c\udfc8\ud83c\udf99\ufe0f #NFL #MNF pic.twitter.com\/s4xj3SH8gH\u2014 Awful Announcing (@awfulannouncing) January 14, 2025 <\/p>\n
\u201cI was kinda thinking the same thing,\u201d Buck\u2019s broadcast partner, Troy Aikman, responded. <\/p>\n
Buck appeared annoyed with the Vikings\u2019 lack of urgency, adding, \u201cI mean, they\u2019re running the ball. They\u2019re slow to the line.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Vikings also looked shocked and frustrated at the end of the first half after quarterback Sam Darnold coughed up a fumble for a touchdown, immediately followed by the defense letting Los Angeles meticulously drive down the field for a score to close the second quarter.<\/p>\n
The Vikings never regained their composure as Darnold took nine sacks throughout the wild-card contest.<\/p>\n
Darnold lost 82 yards on those nine sacks, the most in the history of the NFL playoffs, previously beating Bart Star\u2019s dubious record of 76 yards taken during the 1967 Ice Bow.<\/p>\n
While the game likely was over, Aikman and Buck could not believe that the Vikings essentially conceded.<\/p>\n
\u201cJust seeing now if they\u2019re going to kinda speed things up, which they\u2019re not,\u201d Aikman said as the Vikings executed a quarterback for a first down on fourth-and-1 with less than seven minutes remaining. \u201cMinnesota has kinda conceded this one. They\u2019re in no rush to get the ball snapped.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Vikings head into an uncertain offseason where they won 14 games behind Darnold, but went down with a whimper after being decimated by the Lions in Week 18 and then embarrassed by the Rams.<\/p>\n
Darnold, a free agent to be, finds himself in a peculiar place as the Vikings prepare for the return of first-round pick J.J. McCarthy, who went down with an injury that forced him to have knee surgery.<\/p>\n
Previously, Darnold had put himself in a position to assume that role with McCarthy potentially on the outside looking in, but the poor end to the season casts doubt on his Vikings future.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat conversation\u2019s a different conversation today than it was two weeks ago,\u201d Aikman said after the game. <\/p>\n
With the win, the Rams now head to Philadelphia as an underdog to the Eagles.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
