Well, no shite..

JJ McCarthy was so bad, he turned Jefferson into a WR3.

I can’t believe a team wasted a top10 pick on fricking JJ McCarthy

At this point I think the Vikings have to trade McCarthy just to try to salvage something from that shitty pick.

Trade him for what? A case of ball mud and a new kicking tee?

I’m truly amazed that McCarthy was picked in the first. He just wasn’t ever that good in college.

Please enjoy this thread from September of last year where I appropriately labeled JJ Mccarthy as asscheeks and bashed the Vikings for letting Darnold walk. Some of the Mccarthy enjoyers were upset.

I think everyone that saw Darnold absolutely shite himself in the playoffs said thanks but no thanks.

Darnold threw for 150 yesterday and lost.

I think the Vikes are happy tonight and long term.

The Dunning–Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which people, like Lsuhoohoo with limited competence in a particular domain overestimate their abilities.

O’Connel will get the most out of McCarthy

You think he might have better insight than these idiots ?



But I held strong, me.

I've staked my JJ McCarthy sucks claim in week 1 and I'll ride it out. See you suckers in January.

As anyone with a brain who watched him in college expected.

The Vikings made 2 of the most dumb QB decisions, letting Cousins walk, then getting Darnold and letting him walk.

Kyler Murray was better in HS than JJ is right now.

Not really that surprising his best play in college was to hand the ball to the RB.

It's mind-boggling. Michigan didn't want him throwing much, but nfl people are always reaching when it comes to the QB position

honestly looked like one of the worst QBs of all time at times last year. A pure one read passer who when he did go to his second read always threw late and off his back foot. He should have had about 8 or 9 more INTs last year.

Not to mention he was the QB for a team who was caught stealing signs and he was still generally ineffective somehow

Vikings could have selected as close to a sure thing in Brock Bowers. Absolute morons.
