Speaker 1 (00:00):
What in the world is going on with Viking superstar
receiver Justin Jefferson.

Speaker 2 (00:08):
Today we investigate.

Speaker 1 (00:10):

What is going on with Justin Jefferson? Because he just
showcased his worst NFL performance of his career against the Ravens.

(01:15):
He trips, he falls, he's dropping passes, he's frustrated, and
he's not making an effort to tackle Ravens' defenders when
they intercept McCarthy. And it's pretty easy to diagnose what
is going on with Jefferson. Through nine games this season,

(01:36):
Jefferson has fifty one catches for six hundred and eighty
six yards and only two touchdowns. You compare that to
Jamar Chase, and Jamar Chase has seventy six catches for
eight hundred and thirty one yards and five touchdowns. Jefferson

(01:56):
is becoming mentally worn out at the quarterback situation with
the Vikings. Jefferson was on cloud nine last year with
Sam Darnold, coming off a year with Kirk Cousins and
Josh Jobbs and Jaren Hall and Nick Mullins. Then Sam Donald,

(02:20):
this is beautiful, and then he's right back to rock
bottom receiving passes from j. J. McCarthy who's missing him
wide open. It is clear that the mental toll is
starting to take a physical appearance in Jefferson's game. He
is becoming increasingly frustrated by the inaccurate passes from McCarthy.

(02:46):
There have been countless times this season where McCarthy has
dropped back to pass. Jefferson has been schemed wide open
down the field and McCarthy's missed him. We sat against Detroit,
Jefferson wide open on the sideline. McCarthy too amped, overthrows him.
We sat against Baltimore fourth quarter, Jefferson wide open on

(03:09):
the sidelines.

Speaker 2 (03:10):
Again, McCarthy overthrew him.

Speaker 1 (03:12):
There is one thing that takes great players like Justin
Jefferson out of the game, and it has nothing to do.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
With his physical ability, but it.

Speaker 1 (03:22):
Has everything to do with what's happening around him, specifically
at the quarterback position. Jefferson went to Instagram and said,
I need to get year three Jets back. What he
means by that is he needs to recapture his mental

(03:45):
love of the game so that his physical side will produce.
If you are the best wide receiver in football and
your quarterback is not feeding you the ball consistently but
is consistently inaccurate, you are going to grow with frustration,

(04:08):
especially when you're coming off a season like last year
with Sam Donald. Jefferson is the ultimate competitor. He just
wants to win, and last year the Vikings with Sam
Donald went fourteen and three.

Speaker 2 (04:20):
Sam Donald, this is great. I love this game, I'm
feeling myself.

Speaker 1 (04:24):
We have a great team, and then you're back in
the gutter with McCarthy. Jefferson is unlike any wide receiver
in the NFL. He doesn't take to social media to
send cryptic tweets about his quarterback or organization. He doesn't
anonymous source stuff and feed things to media members. But

(04:46):
what is becoming clear is that Justin Jefferson is growing
frustrated with.

Speaker 2 (04:51):
The quarterback situation with the Vikings.

Speaker 1 (04:55):
Recently, Jefferson talked about the revolving door of quarterbacks that
he's been surround with his entire career, and I guarantee
you Jefferson.

Speaker 2 (05:04):
Has played that what if game.

Speaker 1 (05:06):
If I could play with a Drake May, if I
could play with a Josh Allen, my.

Speaker 2 (05:12):
Life would be so much easier.

Speaker 1 (05:14):
I'm stuck in Minnesota receiving passes from a first year
starting quarterback who is inaccurate, and my career is wasting away.
