@SotaMatt3@Vikings Let’s compare to Josh Rosen’s first 10 starts. 3-7, 55% completions, 10 TDs, 12 Ints, 1910 passing yards. Statistically JJ is more likely to go the path of Rosen and Ponder than the path of Allen.
@SotaMatt3@Vikings JJ draft profile - lacking the measurables and splash throws associated with early round quarterbacks but possessing elements that require more study and consideration. McCarthy lacks frame thickness and a plus arm. He’s poised in the pocket but is average as a pocket passer.
@SotaMatt3@Vikings Allen draft profile - Likely be the biggest boom-or-bust quarterback prospect in the draft. Allen's size and arm talent are prototypical for early first-round picks, but it's rare to find a quarterback with such a low college completion rate become a successful pro.
@m1lo1smyd0g1@TheRealForno I know. Didn’t state that very well. Can’t say you have to keep McCarthy because he led them to the first win in Dallas since 2019. The Vikings only play in Dallas once every six years. It is not a strong argument.
@m1lo1smyd0g1@TheRealForno The last time the Vikings played in Dallas was 2019. The Vikings/Cowboys games in between 2019 and 2025 were in Minneapolis.
@alec_lewis 2024 - Sep 8 first game. 2026 - Sep 13 first game. If starter has same amount of time, they should be named and taking all the reps by Aug 19.
@Gaardsy 2 of the owners in town don’t really care about winning. The two winter sports teams are good but not great. Both need something to get them over the hump.
