Which QB in Vikings history is most like JJ McCarthy? 

I haven't seen anyone say anything bad about McCarthy as a person. People pointed out McCarthy's lack of College QB production. That is not hate. Its QB analysis & the questioning was based on his low passing productivity in college. The McCarthy army became a trigger for many fans because this "McCarthy Movement" started calling for an unsupportable three first rounders Vikings tradeup to get an unproven JJ McCarthy. JJ McCarthy at Pk 10 for one first is solid. I hope Vikings fans get behind him and are patient when he struggles early.

@@johnpreston3706 That’s not true it is hate, you must not use social media. Every single post even mentioning McCarthy is hate comment after hate comment and ALL of it is untrue it’s people just bad mouthing him cause they know nothing about football.

He's not going to be good

@@stevensmith5784 You know jack buddy

​@@jonathan45732thanks 😁

Because he tried so hard to be politically correct and not be a homer he come across very fake and unauthentic

Merlin Olson said the same thing.

He also had the 5th best 3 cone at the Combine. Among *all* players. RB, WR, DB. He has elite lateral quickness and agility for a QB. Just because he didn’t run much, doesn’t mean he cannot. He is a pass first guy that keep his eyes downfield when scrambling but he won with his feet often enough when he had to. His athleticism translates to the NFL. He isn’t a punishing, physical runner like Allen or a talented pure runner like Jackson, but he has more than enough wiggle and speed to keep defenses honest.

Correct. Coller doesn’t like McCarthy and brings on guests that don’t like McCarthy. The people that gravitate to his channel and continue to watch videos where he misrepresents McCarthy to fit his personal bias also don’t like McCarthy. Allen and Milton clocked 62 mph at the Combine. Next, is McCarthy at 61 for third best ever. The next best time is like 58 mph. The comps to weak arm QBs are insane. McCarthy has a cannon, is incredibly accurate, attacks defenses, performs amazing under pressure and in big spots, is athletic with elite lateral agility and quickness to extend plays, and is skilled throwing on the run and off platform. His ceiling is Elway or Young and not Smith or Johnson. Doesn’t mean he reaches his ceiling, but his potential is extremely high. He could become elite.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

JJ didn’t run the 40 at the combine. And there is no record of him running that time. What are you basing that time on?

@@franknorth164JJ ran a 4.48 at Michigans spring training last year

I find the comparison to Bridgewater a disservice to McCarthy. The only resemblance is staying calm under pressure and being a likeable, high EQ guy. McCarthy is far more athletic and has a cannon to make all the tight window throws that are necessary in the NFL. Bridgewater was a high intangibles but limited tools guy. McCarthy is high intangibles combined with high tools. But at least the comp to Bridgewater checks some boxes. The comp to Ponder is ludicrous as Ponder didn’t have the tools or the intangibles.

@@intrepidfool I was referring to more of the mental/emotional aspects of Bridgewater.

@@vikings_fans_anonymousAgree with the EQ and leadership aspect. I think McCarthy’s tape shows he is a much better decision maker that can go through progressions and get the ball out on time. I’ve also seen too many comps (mostly on this channel) that leave out either McCarthy’s mental or physical tools in order to compare him to a lesser caliber QB. McCarthy could flop, they all could, but his ceiling is very high as he checks all the boxes.

He can throw deep. He threw a bunch of 35-40 deep routs. But none of the 60 yard deep balls. Michigan didn’t have a receiver to do that. He has the arm to but needs the receiver to be able to catch the ball. With Jefferson I think that’ll change.

@@kyllerkillMaybe. That isn’t Jefferson’s game either. Or Addison’s. Or KOC’s for that matter. They all excel exactly where McCarthy does: intermediate passing game with some deep outs and crossers. Sure, the occasional go or fade route is there but most of the deeper stuff is post/flag, crossers, and outs. McCarthy shines at all of that.

Hopefully he's an improvement of Cousins who didn't pull out a lot of big games held onto the ball too long some times JJ sends the ball out quick + it's in where the WR/TE/RB should have it

They just match up better right now. If Vikings can solidify the interior OL & DL. Then id take Vikings 9/10 over the bears.
