We’ve officially entered the Sundays-are-for-getting-things-done-and-only-checking-the-Vikings-score-when-I-forget-how-miserable-this-team-makes-me zone. From here on out, Sundays will be productive instead of whatever you call that mix of embarrassment, frustration, melancholy and low-grade rage.

After unexpected recent developments, I have decided to issue an update to this post sports.beehiiv.com/p/jj-mccarth...
JJ McCarthy is the worst
The Vikings need to move on from their 2024 10th overall pick ASAP. PLUS, Jameis Winston makes one of the greatest QB catches ever, the Raiders pin their problems on Chip Kelly, and more!

Brian Flores: Seahawks QB Sam Darnold is "one of my favorites" as far as players he's been around. "We had a great rapport" in his one Vikings season. "Thought he grew tremendously when he was here ... those things are continuing to show up for him" in Seattle
"But we will blitz him this week."

JJ McCarthy is being pressured on 47.4% of his dropbacks, and a bunch have been on his refusal to get rid of the ball. He has the internal clock of a sundial.
(KOC is one of the best, but I still don't think the offensive design/strategy is helping *this* quarterback)

And the second most is “Jalen Redmond has come out of nowhere to be the most talked about guy on this Vikings defense” which would normally be awesome but he’s outplaying by far two expensive veteran free agents
Most frequently heard phrase of this Vikings season:
[Insert random journey man running back] is having a career day today
