a great way to get your question on the show.

Still lots of great stuff from Vikings fans so why waste any time? Let's just

jump right into it from Evan to start us off here. How significant is it that McCarthy is so young and has the opportunity to be developed at the NFL level for two years before he reaches the same age as other top quarterbacks taken in the draft.

I think that this can go either way, Evan.

I really like the way that Quasiadafelmanza phrased this issue when I asked him about it at the NFL combine.

I said, how do you evaluate these guys when there's one guy who's going to be 24 and

another guy who just turned 21?

How do you deal with that and he said that you

he looked at some of the quarterbacks that were coming out later is kind of having minor league

years so they were able to develop their craft like Michael Penix, like Bo Nix, under a little easier circumstances.

But I think there is an advantage for J.J. McCarthy coming out as early as he did to get in the hands of Kevin O'Connell and the hands of Josh

Macown and to really focus on one system with one set of teammates.

Largely this offense is going to stay together for the next few years

and develop in the way that Kevin O'Connell wants him to develop, to learn the footwork,

to learn the offense, to learn the verbiage in his first year.

And I also think that there is something to it that it's like if you learn a language

when you're six years old versus when you learn it and when you're 40 that it's a lot easier to learn when you're a kid then as you get older and I think that there is even something to that in the NFL that when someone comes out as being pretty raw in their early 20s and gets the coaching to develop at that point where you're still getting your motor skills down.

I think that it helps a lot to be on the younger side
