KOC just mentioned in his presser that JJ is in concussion protocol. I'm not a cynical guy....but.....

J.J. McCarthy is in the concussion protocol, per Kevin O'Connell. Reported symptoms on the flight home last night. Brosmer time?

Max Brosmer will work with the first team while McCarthy remains in the protocol, but O'Connell isn't ready to say that McCarthy is out for Sunday's game in Seattle.

Don't know if this is a 'soft' benching or not, could be just coincidental...or not. I don't care, actually. I'm almost positive that JJ would have stunk out loud in Seattle, so its going to save him from that....maybe, I'm sure we won't know until Thursday/Friday who is starting.

So the odds favor Brosmer having a very up and down debut (if that happens), probably more downs as this is a tough Seattle D. First start as an UDFA. The expectations really are low for him. But if somehow he goes YOLO and pulls some Brock Purdy-lite shit out of his ass, its going to turn stuff upside down. I don't expect that at all, however. Yet....

You know what? Fuck it, LFG


Honestly, what other choice do we have? So yeah, fuck it. Tall, tall order for a guy like Brosmer to face a D like Seattle on the road in a very loud stadium with possibly some starting Viking's offensive linemen on the bench. Its a recipe for disaster. But what's to lose at 4-7 and just a trainwreck of a season ahead? I mean, we all knew there'd be bumps this season for the most part, but no one thought the QB play would be this abysmal.

When you watch KOC's pressers now you can see the disgust and frustration in his face with the way the season's gone.

I was hoping both parents were getting joy from their baby, especially in such a trying year.

Dont know when or how I got so emotionally invested in McCarthy, but I sure hope he pulls out of things soon.

I'm still rooting like hell for the kid.


He's a great kid, worth rooting for.
