Speaker 1 (00:00):
Jjon McCarthy needs to fix this big issue if he
wants to become.

Speaker 2 (00:06):
A great NFL quarterback.

Speaker 1 (00:09):
But first I need to tell you about zero resk
carpet cleaning because they are offering a special deal three
carpets cleaned for only one hundred and thirty nine dollars.
Contact zero res at zero Riskminnesota dot com and get

(00:29):
hundred and thirty nine dollars, zero risk. Spill fours or backwards,
it spells the same. And if you want to take
advantage of this special deal, taill let me heard about
it from the brawl with Tim Paul.

Speaker 2 (00:41):
JJ McCarthy has one big issue.

Speaker 1 (00:46):
He lacks composure, and his lack of composure impacts his
ability to throw the ball with accuracy. And I'm going
to prove it to you first. Let's defy composure. According
to Dictionary dot com, the definition of composure is the

(01:07):
state or feeling of being calm and in control of oneself.
Vikings insider Kevin Seffert posted this on his ex account,
and it is JJ McCarthy's off target throw percentage by
quarter against the Baltimore ravens zero percent in quarter one

(01:29):
when the plays were scripted, twenty percent in quarter two,
eighteen percent in quarter three, and a whopping forty percent
in quarter four. JJ McCarthy was off target four.

Speaker 2 (01:43):
Out of ten times in the fourth quarter.

Speaker 1 (01:46):
McCarthy struggles remaining calm, and you can see it on
the football field. Most people focus on McCarthy's interceptions on
his long passes to Jefferson. Those interceptions didn't even bother
me because they were practically punts on third down and
Kevin O'Connell set up McCarthy to fail on third and one,

(02:08):
So I don't even think those McCarthy throws.

Speaker 2 (02:11):
Are as bad as it looks.

Speaker 1 (02:14):
Statistically, there are good interceptions and bad interceptions. A bad
interception is in the red zone or in your own territory.
A good interception is a punt, and those interceptions were punts.
What bothered me is in the fourth quarter when Justin
Jefferson was wide open, he.

Speaker 2 (02:33):
Overthrew him by ten yards. Guys wide open.

Speaker 1 (02:38):
JJ McCarthy gets too empt and loses control of himself
throughout the game because he lacks composure. Warren Sap, an
NFL analyst. He posted this on his X page, McCarthy
is thirty seven of thirty seven quarterbacks in completion percent

(03:00):
this season. He is thirty six of thirty seven in accuracy.
JJ McCarthy meditates before games, but he lacks composure in games.
There's a video that I want to use to illustrate
my point.

Speaker 2 (03:16):
Enjoy.

Speaker 3 (03:17):
You gotta harness in the good energy, block out the
bad harness energy, block bad feel the flow, happy feel
it It's circular. It's like a carousel. You pay the quarter,
you get on the horse. It goes up and down
and around as circular circle with the music, the flow,
all good things.

Speaker 1 (03:35):
JJ McCarthy needs to harness his energy and not allow
himself to be too amped on the football field because
his alter ego that he calls nine is leading him
to become the most inaccurate quarterback this season, and as

(03:56):
McCarthy throws more, his accurate see gets worse versus the barriers.
He threw it twenty times, he completed thirteen passes. Against
the Falcons, he threw twenty one passes, only completed fifty
two percent of them.

Speaker 2 (04:11):
Against Detroit, he threw it twenty five.

Speaker 1 (04:13):
Times, completed fifty six percent of them, and then against Baltimore,
when O'Connell allowed him to throw forty two times, McCarthy
only completed forty seven percent of the passes. What's so
interesting is McCarthy's best game of the season was against Detroit,
and he completed only fifty six percent of his passes.

(04:37):
If McCarthy wants to become a good to great NFL quarterback,
he needs to harness how ampty is and focus on
staying composed as he's delivering the ball to Justin Jefferson.
His interceptions didn't bother me. What bothered me is his
overthrows when his wide receivers were wide open down the

(05:00):
That's step.

Speaker 2 (05:01):
One in McCarthy's growth process.
