Metellus on JJM: 'He's going to be good for the team, locker room'

Well you Michigan men do tend to stick together Sticky…  :cool: :angel:

lol, yeah I know I'm ringing this guy's bell, but IMO he's special. Proof is in the pudding for sure. Mentality is such a big part of being successful.

U better be right @Stickier...

I'm blaming you if this kid flames-out.

:cool:

He's our Neo, the One. Take the purple pill, PF. This is the kid to break the Viking's curse. Its not just me saying it, look how his new teammates have responded. And Thielen. I've been shoutin' it since March. 

More from Thielen on JJM:

"He's a great kid. You don't really realize that he's 21-years-old when you're talking to him [and] when you're hanging around him. He's got a maturity about him that you can tell goes beyond his age.

And that's step No. 1 as a quarterback, right? To have that maturity level, have that kind of poise or kind of that aura around you that just feels confident. And [he's] just a good person. So, I've really enjoyed being around him for the little time that I've been able to be around him."

My man brought up the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, that's where I'm from. Recognize! I get what he's saying, both Minnesota and the U.P. have the same kind of nice people. He's obviously a fan of the Midwest and the values. 
This kid is going to take the state of Minnesota by storm. I've never been more invested in a QB prospect for the Vikings by a mile. Giddy up.

Sticky, I forgot that you had ties to the UP.  What town are you from?
I spent ten years in the Western UP.  Ironwood/Bessemer/Wakefield and worked in the ski industry there before I moved to Colorado (and then Montana).

Escanaba/Bark River area, so kind of south central U.P. right on Lake Michigan.

Which is what a few of us have been saying since the draft. This is not an indictment on McCarthy. It's an acknowledgement of just how complex this offense is, how young JJ is, and how important it is to develop him properly.

Shouldn't be news to anyone paying attention. But the younger fans will see the depth chart and JJM will be a bust before he's had one preseason snap. Just like the Passtronaut was taking us to the Superbowl. Until he wasn't, then he was hot dogshit.
