The Minnesota Vikings found themselves down 17-6 entering the 4th quarter last night against the Chicago Bears with JJ McCarthy making his NFL debut as a starting quarterback, and they managed to pull off the epic upset and ultimately win the game. Dan can see why the Vikings decided to ride with JJ this season as his composure and 4th quarter savvy are the hallmarks of a true leader and winner.
Dan Patrick: “JJ McCarthy didn’t light it up. I don’t know if he did anything where you go, ‘Wow,’ other than his composure. And it’s there, it’s tangible, you can see it…The ability to deliver when it matters most, that’s on the quarterback, and you somehow come up with a way to win. And that’s what he did!”
