STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Murray's upside higher than Darnold's 2024 baseline; average play could yield playoffs.

Murray's expectations are higher than Sam Darnold's were entering 2024, in part because of Darnold's 2024 success with the Vikings. The Vikings won nine games last season with bottom-of-the-league quarterback performance; Murray simply being average may result in double-digit wins and a playoff return. Murray's performance in the two seasons prior to joining the Vikings was also much better than Darnold's was, suggesting higher ceiling potential.
