Never see another one that can read the game like him in my lifetime.
I mean look at him, that guy looks like he never lifted a weight in his life, tb and Michael jordan both arguably the goats in their respective sports both needed to develop their skills to be the players they became. Same as kobe

Its unfortunate that jj couldn't have started his first year and slammin sam was never signed because once you have a season like the vikes had and go with a rookie the year after playing a much harder schedule its bound to be frustrating. Koc wanted slammin sam but the gm and head office overruled him, i hope jj like many other qb in the league that went to other teams becomes successful. We will see
Ps we should have sighed Daniel Jones

Lincoln, kinda...
I think that while JJ McCarthy's play was not the best, it really was his injury history combined with some kind of friction and/or rebellious nature of McCarthy that convinced KOC to be willing to part with him. There are some Hall of Fame players with stats worse than his. His early TD dance and ballsy nature in telling the media he did it even though he was told not to by his head coach had to really annoy KOC, and that's a battle a head coach can't afford to lose. Bottomline, I think the Vikings are going to eventually regret this decision, even if it was the best option at the moment. The Vikings at one point parted ways with Rich Gannon, and look how that worked out for Gannon. I'm not sure he was the workaholic he seemed to be later in his career while with the Vikes. This may just be the wake-up call JJ needed.

And well, I have never been a Murray fan. There's a reason the Cardinals are OK with paying Murray $35.5 million to NOT play for them this year. They had already come to terms with him not being their "guy" in the long term.
