  1. o line needs to be a lot better overall. d line needs to be a lot better vs the run. if we get to .500 for the year, it'll be because of flores. give him as much money as he wants and lock him up for the future.

  5. For everyone panicking about McCarthy go look at Matthew Stafford's first year – he only played 10 games and was out the rest of year due to injuries. He only completed 53% of his passes and threw 20 ints. His second year he only played 3 games and missed the rest because of injuries. I would say it's worked out for him after a rough start. One thing is certain, JJ looked a lot better than Dart and that was with more receivers dropping perfectly thrown balls. The Max throw to Jefferson was a horrible throw and Jets managed to snag that one.

  7. If McCarthy cannot go then Brosmer I think and get them through to the end of the year. As long as Kevin keeps it within the lines and doesn't put him in a position to fail.

  12. I think this is the third time JJ didn't disclose some kind of discomfort in a game and kept playing and made it worse. This young guy needs to be more mature and disclose this to The medical staff so they can help him prevent it from being worse.

  13. How many linemen were out when he got hurt? We have starting lineman who are never there to play and regardless you call JJ glass. Remember when they got Wentz killed too. This line is horrendous and constantly allows unblocked defenders on the blindside.

  16. Fran Tarkenton missed 2 games in 20 YEARS. McCarthy gets INJURED every time the wind blows on him. This is a BIG problem!!! He also throws the ball SO HARD, that apparently, his receivers CAN'T catch it. That is ANOTHER problem!!! 😆😆😆

  17. McCarthy gets injured too much because he does not use good risk management. He over-exerts himself when he doesn’t need to. If you have achieved enough for a first down don’t try and be the hero. I look at this as poor decision making. I am a 56 year old man, feeling like I watching my exuberant grandson trying to “prove himself” for me. Someone needs to calm him down.

  24. That play call that got JJ hurt is inexcusable. Look at the f'ing situation Kevin Oconnell!! I'm over this guy and the GM. I don't want to feel this way but I do. I was excited for the last 2 games now I could really care less… Sad.

  25. Of course the coach is going to say nice things about his QB but deep down he's thinking who can get that's out out cause JJ is made of glass. We can't do this again next year

  36. 🤔…that finger might have been dislocated a few games ago.. on TV it looked like "they" popped it back into place & then; walked him back for X-rays.. hopefully, he's in the mix at home !!

  42. Just a daily reminder. Fire Kevin O'Connell. Vikings are gonna regret keeping this idiot as the head coach. Promote Brian Flores and kick Kevin out of here, along with the Oline coach, special teams coach, medical team, Kwesi and the front office.

  49. He played sams schedule with 14 wins, drake maye is playing the 4 win season HE created for himself. All these "analysts" knew McCarthy had an extremely tough road but rather than actually TALK about that aspect ,they just hate hate hate
