I REPEAT! If true… yikes.

What the yikes for??

The length of time to recover from high ankle sprain? 
His mechanics are a work in progress? 
Both?
Other?

I feel like I’m watching a collective mental illness amongst our fanbase.

KOC says like 4 total sentences over the course of a month, and the media and the fanbase extrapolates that into whatever their deepest darkest fears are and pretends like that is reality.

Coaches have to talk to the public. It’s in their best interest to not tell their opponents the truth, but they’re forced to tell you something. So they just say generic statements that leave things open ended. This is the ways its been forever. We can just accept it at face value. We don’t need to fill in the gaps, and make ourselves feel shitty in the process.

I'm not saying its new....I'm just saying its boring to listen to. I don't personally read into anything, that's what the Twitter fanboys do and the media. But of course they do, right? ENGAGEMENT. When you know the game, its even more boring watching the sheep eat it up, as its all contrived controversy. And yeah, its mental as hell.

In his weekly spot w/ @PAOnTheMic, Kevin O'Connell says:

+ Neither J.J. McCarthy (ankle) nor Carson Wentz (shoulder) are 100%
+ Sunday's QB won't be a secret
+ McCarthy "could" return this week if practice goes very well

The yikes is for the entire QB quagmire that we are constantly in. The yikes is because I was psyched up to see McCarthy play and mentally prepared to watch him take any lumps.

The yikes is because I'm hearing all about Wentz, Daniel Jones, Sam Darnold, Max Brosmer, and probably someone else by the time I finish typing this.

I was ready for turnovers and sacks. I guess I wasn't ready for - looks around - whatever all this is haha.

Above everything else I just hope once McCarthy gets back on the field, he can stay there.

Fair enough, everyones gotta process stuff through their own brain..

I think fans just need to be patient, which is not how the world works these days. 

Im with you at the bold...Fair or not, I think he's on razors edge for being labeled as glass fragile.
