J.J. McCarthy — One Season, 10 Starts, 11 TDs, 12 INTs, Status Unclear

McCarthy was drafted No. 10 overall in 2024. He missed his entire rookie season with a knee injury. He started 10 games in 2025, throwing 11 touchdowns and 12 interceptions. The Vikings went 6–4 in those starts. K. O’Connell is the QB whisperer. The QB has not yet been whispered into consistency. Kyler Murray has arrived to compete for the job.

Wanted

A Franchise Quarterback — Any Era, One Who Stays Healthy and Throws More TDs Than INTs

The Vikings have not had a settled franchise quarterback situation since Favre in 2009–2010. K. O’Connell whispered Darnold into a Super Bowl season in 2024. Darnold then left for Seattle and won the Super Bowl. Now the Vikings have J.J. McCarthy and Kyler Murray competing for the job. Skol Nation has seen this movie before.

ContactK. O’Connell. He has been a quarterback whisperer. He whispered Darnold into a championship team. Darnold took the championship with him. The position is open again.

Help Wanted

Starting Quarterback — Competition Ongoing, Winner To Be Announced, Patience Required

J.J. McCarthy and Kyler Murray are competing for the starting position. McCarthy was a top-10 pick. Murray was a two-time Pro Bowler and MVP candidate. Both are talented. Both have question marks. K. O’Connell is running the competition. The competition usually resolves by Week 1.

ContactK. O’Connell. He is running the competition. He is confident in both candidates. Only one can start. He is aware of this. He is whispering to both anyway.
Announcement

The asset then signed with the Seattle Seahawks. The Seahawks won the Super Bowl. The Vikings received a competition between J.J. McCarthy and Kyler Murray in exchange.

Obituaries

The 2025 Minnesota Vikings Season — Passed Quietly After a Difficult Quarterback Year

Passed in January 2026 following a down season after the 2024 high of 14 wins. J.J. McCarthy started 10 games, threw more interceptions than touchdowns, and the team went from division contender to the middle of the standings. It is survived by J. Jefferson, B. Flores’ defense, K. O’Connell’s whispering, and Skol Nation, who was present for all of it.

ContactThe competition. It is ongoing. It has two participants. It will have a winner. The winner will be whispered into readiness by K. O’Connell.

    Condition: Cautiously Optimistic
    Kevin O’Connell’s thick offensive playbook titled ‘Quarterback Competition.’ Inside, it’s just pages and pages of notes weighing Kyler Murray’s mobility against J.J. McCarthy’s potential. Neither seems like the answer.

    NFL Competition Committee Proposes

    Four new proposed NFL rules, each presented with complete regulatory seriousness. The title is always “THE NFL COMPETITION COMMITTEE PROPOSES:” followed by the rule name. Three to five sentences of deadpan satire. A new batch of four rules, every seven-week cycle.

    Official Proposal 1 of 4 — NFL Competition Committee — 2026 Season

    The NFL Competition Committee Proposes:
    The Feelings Rule

    Effective immediately, any player who is visibly sad after a penalty will be allowed to challenge the call on emotional grounds. The replay official will review the player’s expression in slow motion. If certified “genuinely devastated” by a panel of three therapists stationed in the press box, the penalty is waived. The Dallas Cowboys have already filed 847 pre-season challenges.

    Official Proposal 2 of 4 — NFL Competition Committee — 2026 Season

    The NFL Competition Committee Proposes:
    Mandatory Honesty From Coaches

    Starting in 2026, head coaches will be required to answer one post-game question with complete honesty. The question will be selected at random by a wheel spin. Early testing was abandoned after three coaches resigned, one cried, and Bill Belichick’s honest answer was legally classified as a threat.

    Official Proposal 3 of 4 — NFL Competition Committee — 2026 Season

    The NFL Competition Committee Proposes:
    The Participation Fumble

    In an effort to make fumbles less discouraging, any fumble recovered by the opposing team will now be referred to as an “unintentional lateral.” The player who fumbled will receive a certificate of effort. The team that recovered it will receive six points. Both outcomes will be celebrated equally on the official broadcast.

    Official Proposal 4 of 4 — NFL Competition Committee — 2026 Season

    The NFL Competition Committee Proposes:
    Announcer Accuracy Ratings

    All play-by-play announcers will now be graded in real time by a panel of former players. Phrases such as “he just wanted it more,” “that’s a football player right there,” and “you cannot teach that” will trigger an automatic fine of $500 per occurrence. Early projections suggest the league will be debt-free by Week 3.

    30¢

    Per Day. For Every Team. That Is All We Are Asking.

    $9 per month…just 30 cents / day. That works out to be 3 dimes exactly, or a quarter and a nickel. And it is no longer just one team — that 30 cents covers full articles and Bonus Content for all 32 NFL teams in the network. We are asking you to spend the cost of approximately nothing to have your suffering (and everyone else’s) witnessed, documented, and returned to you in a funnier format than it arrived.

    Other Things You Could Buy for 30¢
    ( If For Some Reason You Really and Truly Didn’t Want to Laugh Today )

    1. A quarter at a vending machine, with a nickel left over. That nickel is yours to keep. It is the only refund this list offers.
    2. Just under a third of a gumball from a machine that still exists somewhere in 1987.
    3. The look on someone’s face when you tell them you subscribe to a satirical NFL newsletter that covers all 32 teams. That look is free. The newsletter is 30 cents a day.
    4. A little over a third of a postage stamp. Stamps are about 80¢ now. Your 30¢ covers roughly the top third. This is not enough to mail anything to anyone. This subscription delivers considerably more — for every NFL team.
    5. About three-quarters of a birthday candle. The kind from the dollar store 10-pack. It will burn for a little over a minute. This subscription burns considerably longer, covers every NFL team, and produces significantly more joy and marginally less wax.
    6. 0.00002% of your team’s starting quarterback’s daily salary. He earns more between breakfast and the first snap than you will spend on this subscription in a year. This year that figure also covers 31 other starting quarterbacks’ teams. We thought you should know that. We are not sure why. It felt relevant.
    7. Nothing at a parking meter in any American city built after 1990. The meter will reject your 30 cents. We will not reject your 30 cents. We will give you seven weeks of content for it — for every NFL team.
    8. A shot glass of gasoline, which might be just enough to get you to an ATM to take out $9 for your first month of All-Access. The math works. The metaphor also works. Please do not drink the gasoline.

    Hey — you’ve made it this far. You’ve looked at all seven weeks of bonus content you’ll be receiving — for all 32 NFL teams, not just this one. You’ve also seen that you’ll be getting daily, full-length headline articles from the entire network — every side article, too. Obviously you love your team with a passion to have lasted this long and smiled this much.

    Yep. We can see you.

    There’s nothing left to do but spend the 30¢ / day and have this feeling — for every NFL team — last the whole year through.

    I mean really — what more is there to think about? Do you want to smile today (and every day) or not?

    “By subscribing you acknowledge that you are a fan in good standing, that you have suffered, that you will continue to suffer, and that $9 per month is a reasonable fee for having that suffering — and the suffering of 31 other NFL fanbases — witnessed and documented with the respect it deserves. Cancel anytime. Your team will not cancel anything. Neither will the other 31. They will all be here next season. And the season after that.”
