HighCalebR Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 18 minutes ago, Mazrimiv said: I don't really think the McCarthy injury moves the needle for them from a W/L standpoint this season. They hadn't planned to play him right away, and it's not like he was likely to turn their season around once he got on the field. This injury probably hurts MIN on the field more in 2025/2026 than it does in 2024. The Addison injury might. I think theyd have switched to JJ at the bye week, the Jets ruined Darnold if JJ wouldnt have been an upgrade they should think about a QB with their pick.

Old Guy Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 I just can't root for injuries for anybody or any team. I hope Addison is alright. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brat&Beer Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 hell of a summer for the Vikings: Vikings: -Rookie CB dies -Starting WR gets a DUI -Starting CB tears ACL first day of practice -Other starting CB gets hurt second day of practice -First round rookie QB tears meniscus This is just the last five weeks… 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's probably what we should have done if McCarthy was healthy anyways. I wanted him to play in relief time this year and wait until 2025 to be the guy. Hopefully his rehab goes well and he can be right on track for next season. Until then, I'm ready for disappointment with Darnold and absolute balls to the walls chaos with Nick Mullens lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he'll stay healthy either. My body is ready for 300 yards 3TDs and 3INTs every week from Mullens haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
