After JJ McCarthy has missed all his season recruited with a knee injury, it is understandable that some are skeptical about its entry into the 2025 campaign as a new quarter starting from the Vikings of Minnesota.
Colin Cowherd de Fox Sports has not exactly directed the McCarthy train since the young signator entered the league last year, and the longtime radio host proved again THURSDAY With new comments on the program “The Herd with Colin Cowherd”.
“I am skeptical. First of all, he played for a university team known for a racing match and a defense. He was not invited to win matches. They asked him not to lose them.
He has a modest arm, he is marginally athletic, and once again, he enters a very good division, and [the Vikings] Seriously considered to sign Sam Darnold again.
… I’m still so reluctant to kiss a quarter when everyone says: “I don’t know how to describe it, it’s a winner.” Danny Wuerffel was a winner. Each quarter of Steve Spurrier in Florida was a winner. All quarter-rear of the Urban Meyer, wherever it goes, are winners. Alex Smith was a winner and a good quarter.
… I think he can play a little, but I think he is closer to Jackson Dart than Jayden Daniels. This is how I would say it. “”
Last Burning Hot Take about Minnesota Vikings QB JJ McCarthy uses recycled materials
Well, there are certainly a lot to say about the most recent reflections in Cowherd on McCarthy.
First of all, saying that he has a “modest arm” and “he is slightly athletic” is hilarious. Not only McCarthy recorded the fastest third ball speed (61 MPH) at the NFL scout combination Since 2008But he also spent the sixth fastest time for the three -side exercise (6.82 seconds) from anyone to the NFL 2024 scout combination.
Second, Minnesota has never “seriously considered” to sign Sam Darnold again this offseason. The Vikings made the courteous thing and presented an offer to him, but they knew that it was nothing that Darnold was going to accept because he hoped to get a big salary this year.
And then, of course, there is the comparison of McCarthy with Danny Wuerffel, the former quarter-rear of the University of Florida which won the Heisman trophy and helped the Gators to win the national championship in 1996. It is true, 29 years ago. The entire football sport has changed over the past 29 years, so this comparison is terrible hilarious.
Regarding the remark on Jaxon Dart and Jayden Daniels, we will just say this: bless your heart, Colin.
Cowherd is very well informed about several sports and sometimes (sometimes) he can even be right about certain things. But with regard to McCarthy, he must return to the drawing board to find criticism that is really credible.
