KOC deserves the benefit of the doubt after getting more out of journeyman QBs than 90% of coaches in the NFL. The problem is, like you pointed out, KOC/Kwesi thinking McCarthy was ready to lead a veteran team ready to win right now.
And that’s really where the debate between fans is stuck. There’s a subset of Vikings fans that wants McCarthy to get reps this year, record be damned. I’m in a subset of Vikings fans that wants to win, QB development be damned.
