McCarthy out all season. Sigh.

McCarthy out all season. Sigh.

 

I have mixed thoughts on him; but that's tough news.  Obviously would have liked watching him get the majority of time this season, and getting a better sense of what you have vs. Darnold. 

There are weapons though.  

Maybe Darnold finally breaks out and looks competent.

I like him a lot but you never know with QBs. But regardless you go into next year still not knowing what you have in him. Major bummer.

I heard on the radio yesterday - and I did not vet this so I'm just going to assume it's true - that since the inception of the draft no 1st round QB has ever missed an entire season due to injury.  Pretty amazing stat.

It is apparently true.  I read that yesterday.  Eight first round QBs did not play at all in their rookie season.  McCarthy is the first to miss the entire season because injury.  Five of the other seven did not play because they were backups and did not take a snap.  Jim Kelly missed his entire first year because he played in the USFL.  Kelly Stouffer missed his entire first year because he held out.
