“J.J. McCarthy will never start another game for the Vikings.” π
JJ McCarthy will never start another game for the Vikings. I don’t actually believe this, but I’m starting to maybe think it’s true. They’re like, it feels like they are, you know, why don’t you just go get some work on your ankle? Just keep working on it. You know, daddy’s taking the dog to the farm. He’ll be back. The dog will be back. Don’t worry. Amazing take. It’s like on TV. Somebody just is off the show for a couple weeks and they never come back. What happened? Totally. The Vikings quarterback room last year. Sam Darnold, Daniel Jones. JJ McCarthy’s on IR, but it is crazy that they let Sam Darnold and Daniel Jones go and they are like two of the best quarterbacks in the NFL this year. And now they’re playing Carson Wentz.

Imagine saying that a team "Let Sam Darnold and Daniel Jones go" just a couple years ago. We are living in some crazy unpredictable times in this league. In the best ways
He cost me so much. Potentially. That loss to Atlanta. He was so bad. Never seen an nfl qb that bas
Thatβs not a hot take β¦ kid is injury prone
This shit going to age horribly mark my words
Darnold wanted a massive payday Daniel jones was unproven at that point heβs also playing behind the best o line in the nfl right while ours has been in shambles all year. Stick to basketball youβre making yourselves look bad.
This is a great hot take.
Vikings offered deals to Jones and Darnold, but neither wanted to stay bc JJ was there.
He missed all rookie year reps with a meniscus repair (not the trim like Embiid does), then had a baby and a high ankle sprain.
For some stupid reason he went oversees with the team on a sprained ankle which made it swell up kinda bad, and KOC isnβt gonna throw him out there on one leg and no practice.
DK cooked with this one, it is Take Purge worthy
Vikings made the correct choice
They should bring in geno after he gets cut. He's pretty similar to darnold and he'll be cheap coming off getting released
Not shocked at all called him Josh Rosen 2.0 before the draft
