‘Fireable offence’ – Vikings fans regret trading J.J. McCarthy after QB struggles cost them vs. Bills

The Minnesota Vikings QB situation looks completely broken after Carson Wentz’s historically bad performance in 23-6 loss to the Buffalo Bills. Despite starting the season 6-0 with a struggling offence, the Vikings’ shortcomings are finally catching up to them after losing to the Bills for their third straight loss, dropping them to 6-3. Starting QB Wentz had one of the worst modern QB performances, going 8/25 for 81 yards and two INTs, registering a shockingly low 8.9 passer rating. With the recently traded J.J. McCarthy shining as the Giants’ starting QB, the Vikings’ struggles look even worse. Vikings fans think trading J.J. McCarthy was a mistake amid QB struggles McCarthy, a former No. 10 overall pick, fell to QB3 behind Wentz and Kyler Murray to start the season and was eventually traded for a fifth-round pick to the Giants, who needed a starting QB. McCarthy doing better in New York than either Wentz or Murray have done all season in Minnesota has fans regretting that trade. “The Vikings realising they probably shouldn’t have traded JJ McCarthy for a 5th-round pick,” joked Barstool Sports . “Trading JJ McCarthy for a 5th-round draft pick is a fireable offence for all involved. This offence is absolutely horrible,” said an angry Vikings fan . “I still have NO clue why they traded him – he was cheap and a viable backup at a bare minimum,” said another Vikings fan . “McCarthy just scored double the points against a stronger defence, on the road, in perhaps the most hostile environment in football. On his second start with his team. But this is better; the Vikings fanbase deserves this,” said a McCarthy fan . “I have never wavered and I’ve always been right at the QB position…..FIRE KOC!” calling for Kevin O’Connell to be fired . Wentz has gone 31/64 on pass attempts for 357 yards in three starts for three TDs, two INTs, and a 68.3 passer rating, while McCarthy has gone 43/68 on pass attempts for 622 yards, one TD, one INT, and a 91.7 passer rating. The Vikings are expected to look for QB options on the market before the trade deadline, as their very strong offensive weapons and league-leading defence might go to waste if the QB issues cannot be addressed.
