Well, I got what I came for today...
#1
To see hope with my 22 year old QB...

Great throw and catch with Nailor to seal this one...

Brady sure luvs him some JJM. Hope Stickier got to enjoy this one.

Awesome team win!  JJM played very well!  4 out 4 good to great quarters!  Big plays by the defense and special teams, coaches called a good game.  Sweet!  Time to celebrate a win!

Big time team win. The offense made clutch plays, the defense got some big stops, and ST was solid as hell.

Our young QB just answered a bunch of questions. There are more, certainly, but yes: he can play a full game at least as good as his 4th quarter against the Bears.
Take the Momentum and Build, Vikings!!

Yup of course a team win...And most of those TD's were short fields too. Great D and ST outings today. 

JJM showed his inexperience at times and he'd probably like 4-5 throws back too. But I saw enough to keep me encouraged as a fan and when it was all on the line? He didnt turtle-up. 

The kid has resilience.

The front 7 of defense won this game, outside of first drive, they consistently stepped up and kept pressure on Goff all day, best defensive effort against Detroit in some time. Offense did enough, ran the ball well and JJ made some big throws. He missed a number of easy ones, hopefully just due to being rusty. I can see some of the reports on how he throws the ball too hard with little touch, he has to do a much better job of putting the ball in a better position for the WRs, although he put it in a perfect spot on the 3rd down pass to win game. I think this is a win we can build on both sides of the ball.

Lot of interesting things on this big play -
- O'Neil destroys Hutchinson which is what gives JJ time
- JJ throws it well before Nailor ever looks for ball
- Looks like he could have also gone to Jefferson and Addison who did a great job of getting open
- Hockenson inexplicably cuts his route off 3 yards before 1st, not like he is going to make catch and fight for a 1st

Well, well, well... did McCarthy do enough to shut up the haters?

Can we stop measuring his success by quarters? Kid looked pretty good today and he made some clutch throws. None bigger than the last one.

The haters will always find something. We could break our SB curse, and the team/coaches/GM would be "failures" the following Spring if their draft strategy didn't align with those of the nega-nancies....

Oh baby, watched every second. Super shocked the D showed up, where they been? And a run game? Seemed like a different team. Oh so happy to be wrong about this game. 

What can I say about JJ? Its going to be an uneven ride until he gets more reps and I've always maintained that. But you can see what he can be. He's  2-1 as a starter, both wins coming AT NFCN opponents. Go into Detroit and win? JJ and KOC have the same amount of wins playing in Detroit. He's only going to get better, that's what he does.

They just need to see more games....they'll understand in time. But unevenness aside, he's ice in the clutch. His athleticism is a weapon. And he's got the team eating out of his hand. JJ gets amped up, its why sometimes he misses a few easy throws....that will change with MORE REPS. He just needs to play more, its that simple. But look around the NFL yesterday: so many bad throws by really good QBs. Its not just JJ...its the position. But he's a special leader.
