Holy crap, talk about perspective.
In ten years, he'll only be mid-way up the chart...to where Dak Prescott is today.

Right?!

i didnt realize Dak was that old, or that Love was 26. But he curated for 3 years behind Rogers too. 

Hell, JJ is 10 years younger vs my kid.

Thinking of all the injuries Dak has gone through, and that he's still 32, is sobering. Hopefully JJ McCarthy has a bit more luck on his side in that department going forward.

I said it a while back, crazy to think he will still be the youngest QB in the league even after this years rookies.

I thought Geno was at least 37.

Wow, that seems a wee bit optimistic, considering neither Cousins or Darnold put up that many yards in this offense. And JJ's a rookie for all intents and purposes. I think there's a good chance he doesn't play like one, but no matter how good he is, I have a hard time seeing KOC let him throw the ball all over the yard his first season. 

As good as Jayden Daniels was, he threw for only 3500 yards last year, and one of the best rookie seasons ever by a QB was Russell Wilson, who threw for 3100 yards his first season.

Only two QBs in the past 3 years (Mahomes, Burrow) have thrown for 4750 in a season. I'm pumped and drinking the koolaid on JJM. and the Vikings, but that writer may be on crack ha.
