Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
JJ McCarthy has cleared concussion protocol and is ready to
go for the vikings on Sunday. But the question is
will things look any different? And I'm gonna say yes,
they do, and I'm gonna explain in just one second.

Speaker 2 (00:16):
I need to tell you about zero Res Carpet Cleaning
because they are extending their Black Friday deal and you
can get three carpets cleaned for only one hundred and
nineteen dollars.

Speaker 1 (00:28):
Get your home ready for the holidays with a zero
Res carpet cleaning. Go to zero Resminnesota dot com and
tell them you heard about it from the brawl with
Tim Paul. To take advantage of this special deal. Three
carpets cleaned, one hundred and nineteen dollars. Zero res spell
it forms or backwards, it spells the same. JJ McCarthy

(00:50):
is returning from concussion protocol and this season he has
been horrific. But with five weeks remaining, will JJ McCarthy
look any different. Kevin O'Connell spoke yesterday, talked about just
letting McCarthy play pitch and catch Jajon McCarthy also spoke yesterday,
talked about his overthinking and trying to do everything perfectly.

Speaker 3 (01:12):
Definitely a natural overthinker, so you know the way and
it's not against them. I need to do a better
job of compartmentalizing those coaching points and realizing when it's
game time some little loops.

Speaker 1 (01:25):
There is a consistent theme within the Vikings organization. We
are going to simplify things for mccarnarthy. JJ mccarnarthy will
not look as bad as he's been this season, not
because he's much improved, but because the Vikings have dumbed
it down. I can already picture it. After the game

(01:48):
the Vikings win, what's gonna happen is JAJ McCarthy's numbers
are gonna look better, and everyone's gonna be like he's
figured it out. It was too complicated, the coaches had
him doing too much. But really what it's going to
be is Vikings coaches are going to simplify it so
much it's going to look like Bill holding an index

(02:08):
card over his face like he was calling place for
Christian Ponder. McCarthy is not going to look better because
McCarthy has all of a sudden gotten better. McCarthy is
going to look better because the Vikings offense is going
to be simpler, it's going to be dumbed down. What's
clear is JJ McCarthy cannot make the throws Kevin O'Connell

(02:34):
wants him to make, and there's evidence he has a
fifty four percent completion percentage of this season. What more
evidence do you need. Jaj mccarnthy has a passer rating
of fifty seven point nine this season, which is twelve
points lower than the next quarterback, and because of that,

(02:54):
Cavin O'Connell is going to change the way the offense
looks with him starting. But what's so interesting going into
this Commander's matchup is the Commanders on average have given
up a passer rating of one hundred and eight, which
ranks thirty first out of thirty two NFL teams. Something

(03:16):
is gonna have to break because you have the worst
quarterback in the NFL going against one of the worst
passing defenses in the league. If Jaj McCarthy doesn't look
better against some of the worst defenses in the league,
the Commanders this week, the Cowboys next week, then it's over.

(03:37):
There is so much pressure on McCarthy to perform better
this final stretch of the season because he's playing some
of the worst defenses in the league, and if he
doesn't perform better, the Vikings will be calling and hunting
for a brand new quarterback this offseason. If you need
