First thing I am wondering is when did Kyler Murray, Herbert and Stroud become benchmark QBs in this league? Want to poke holes in a QB, you can have a field day with those 3. The other thing that is a complete joke is has he seen JJ throw the ball, seen his metrics from the combine or talk to anyone in the organization regarding his arm strength, which every player, coach and media member has stated it is elite without question. And mentioning his interception in practice for the 3rd day in a row makes him look like such a moron, that is like questioning a MLB pitcher giving up a HR in a spring training game, you do not think these guys are out there trying some new things and experimenting, that is what practice is for, not for trying to make conservative passes, but to test your limits.
Also, his rant about the Vikes looking at other QBs demonstrates that he is not tied into the league at all and has no connections, otherwise he would know there was never any serious interest from the Vikes in Rodgers or any other QB. And if they didn't have confidence in JJ, either Darnold or Jones would be a Viking. Lost any kind of respect for this guy, just rambling on without any kind of facts or an ounce of knowledge.

...and just fyi, I looked up what Bob McGinn's anonymous scouts said about JJ. The only time his arm was mentioned was here:
His record was 27-1. “He’s better than Harbaugh was,” a fourth scout said. “It’s difficult to have a personality like Harbaugh but he might be close. He does some different things. Meditation, all this he does. He’s got feet. He’s at least a 4.5 guy. He’s got a strong arm. But everything about this guy is development. He won’t make as big an impact maybe as the three above him at first but he can overtake Caleb Williams and Maye. If you play for Jim Harbaugh and win a national championship, you’re good.”

When he's proven wrong he absolutely will admit it. He literally has a daily segment discussing what he was right and wrong about. More in his profession should humble themselves like that.
Despite what the people getting their panties in a bunch think about the dude, he is one of the biggest names in sports media to constantly heap praise on MN. He's consistently spoken well of the team dating back to at least 2019.
I don't really listen to his radio show, it's super performative. His podcast wrapping of each week during the season is pretty solid. Less character and more his real feelings.

Another thing he mentions is that McCarthy threw an interception in three straight practices. One interception per, as if that's a big red flag, or even news. Personally, I think that's a good pace. I think KOC would agree that a QB should be be testing his limits in these early practices. What JJ hasn't done, at least not yet, is throw multiple interceptions in a practice, like we've seen from several other QBs this spring.
And the bottom line, controversy generates attention. He is an attention whore and does mind sounding like an idiot to get it.

Stupidly early, yes, but hey, if Jones turns into a quality starter this year after only a few months with the Whisperer, teams will be begging to send us a dozen 1st round picks for our coach. Not that we'd take it.

Dimes is the best QB on that Colts roster...I dont blame him at all for leaving here when he did.
