All the same things Darnold and Cousins dealt with and were able to be successful with both, in fact, can make a case that the OL was much better last year than in 2024 when Darrisaw was out for the season after week 8, Bradbury was starting at C, Brandel and Ingram at G.
McCarthy is now in his 3rd full camp with the team and still showing the same issues. Also a number of reports of JJM not taking to coaching, which could be the biggest issue of all and the reason why he is not improving. There is not a coach in the league who would continue to put their job on the line for these dynamics.

Sorry if this is already tweeted and I can't see it because my work blocks twitter, but what are the reports that JJM is not taking coaching? Are they credible reports or is it some guy on twitter saying random stuff?

Right now, Wentz is better than JJM. I finally watched the preseason game and JJM looks the same as last year. That's not a compliment. He still rifles the ball all the time. He still processes slowly and doesn't anticipate throws. Having said that, I thought Darnold was a bust and never again would be an NFL starting QB. However, JJM failed with a better receiving core than Darnold did with the Jets. I hope JJM can have a Darnold-like resurrection, but I'm not holding my breath.

I'd like what you're smoking....are you for real? You might want to watch it again.

I'll say this as an observational thing about Saturday: if JJ plays poorly, as he should be getting a ton of work, at U.S. Bank....I wonder if he gets booed? I mean, that's right there in line with fandom. A decent portion of fans still put stock into these games. Hopefully not the case, but I could definitely see it happening.

Again, who knows how true this QB3 talk is, but.....IF he's QB3, everyone should realize the party in Minnesota is over for McCarthy. I mean just the fact that there IS this kind of talk isn't great. I believe KOC already said he's QB2, so......he'd have to mini shit the bed to move down again.

its a bullshit report, weird that lacanfora is this desperate for a "scoop"- scoop of bullshit is what it is. As comet pointed out, its a misleading article. the infoverse gets more insane by the day. Now excuse me for a minute, there are kids on my lawn and irritating clouds rolling by.
