Latest rumor is McCarthy is recovering 'extremely well' from surgery and he's passed some mobility benchmarks. He'll be good to go 100% for May OTAs....probably before that.

How about a bye week extension for KOC? Would that he ok?
Why isn't Chuck Foreman in the Hall of Fame?

I dont take it for granted these guys come back 100%, even on a meniscus.

Even the media saying how "dumb" it was to not extend him after last season... Who extends coaches after two years of their deal? Especially when it's a first time HC? Undoubtedly KOC has earned a hefty pay raise. There is no need to do it now. Just let the focus be on the team and the season and the Wilfs and his agent will have plenty of time after the season ends to work it out. The other aspect of this, I'm sure KOC's agent is advising to wait because if the Vikings get to or win the Super Bowl, that extension goes up a few more million. And KOC seems like the type of guy that doesn't want to distract from the team with his own contract extension. Like Montana Tom said a few posts prior, this is the media drumming up "controversy" where there isn't any for clicks.

I agree - at this time of year? Its all about results on the field.
Hell, the SB is being played just NINE DAYS b4 teams can start applying tags on players. Scary to think about it, but the new league year isnt that far away - Feb. 18 to March 4: Window to tag franchise and transition players March 12: Start of the new league year and free agency April 24-26: 2025 NFL Draft in Green Bay April 7: Teams with new head coaches can begin offseason workouts April 21: Teams with returning head coaches can begin offseason workouts Another key date to remember is March 10, when the legal tampering period for free agents begins. Usually, the first day of the legal tampering period is one of the busiest days on the NFL calendar. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/nfl-a...t-weekend/

I would be pretty surprised if his agents and the team's people aren't already working on the framework of a new contract for KOC.

The Vikings are essentially holding what would be the #1 rated quarterback in the draft if McCarthy were in this draft. Teams will absolutely call.
Here's a hypothetical; what if the Giants offered the #4 overall pick, Dexter Lawrence, and a second round pick in 2026 for McCarthy? Any takers?

Is it safe to say any of last years top 6 QB's would be the #1 rated QB in 25?
