The Minnesota Vikings have named Nick Mullens the starting quarterback for Saturday afternoon’s game against the Cincinnati Bengals.
He took over for Josh Dobbs on Sunday afternoon and led the Vikings to a 3-0 victory and now Minnesota has a 66% chance to make the playoffs. It was a move that many in the fanbase and those that cover the team thought needed to happen.
However, was it the right move to go to Mullens over rookie quarterback Jaren Hall? That is a serious debate among many that he should end up as the quarterback for the remainder of the season.
Those individuals took to Twitter to express their thoughts on the subject.
He's obviously the best choice.

Mullens stats show zero ability to run beyond the line of scrimmage. Career 34 rushes for -3 yards!
I hope he navigates the pocket well? Having a 'statue' in the pocket won't work out well.
Would like to see Hall in there instead.— VikeDude (@TotalTennis3) December 12, 2023
We want Jaren Hall

He throws better than Dobbs but if the line doesn't block well, there will be many sacks.. but I get him starting even though I want to see Hall more to see what we have there.

No disrespect to mullens but Hall should be starting.

Serious question what did Hall do to KOC?
You drafted Hall. You started him over Nick against Atlanta, he looked good, got hurt. Replaced him with Dobbs… then he gets relegated to being the emergency QB3, and never gets another chance to start again even when Dobbs is benched?

Jaren Hall would be the better option
