When they got rid of him, he had played the two worst games of the season, their two most important games, and they had McCarthy waiting to play.
They hadn't even seen play yet.
He hadn't played at all.
So I think the Vikings, in the moment, made the right decision.
It might not work out for them because McCarthy looks like he might not be the guy and hasn't played enough to really know that.
And Donald's going to win the Super Bowl, in my opinion.
So, yeah, the Vikings probably hate themselves that the end result is what it is.
But when they made the decision with the information they had, I think they made the right decision.
Look, I think quarterback wins again.
In general, meh.
But postseason, legacy, it does matter.
He played very well.
I mean, look, record-winning team scores under 17 points.
Justin Herbert's 2-16.
Burrow's 1-10.
Allen's 4-19.
Mahomes is 2-7.
Drake May's 2-0 in the playoffs.
Quarterback, I mean, it's not the be-all, end-all for a team winning or losing.
The only two in our lifetime to really break that trend are Brady and Mahomes, right?
