"I kind of make the analogy of just a cork about to come off a bottle,"
"Just understanding that it's one to three little things that I need to change about my game that is going to make a huge difference in the outcome of every single drive in the game. So yeah, I feel like it's really close, but it all comes down to the consistency of the fundamentals."
"We just have to find that when it comes to the post-snap, and sometimes it's not even reads and progressions, it's simply just the fundamental foundation that we need to start seeing the concrete kind of dry a little bit on the work that's put in."
J.J. McCarthy will make his sixth start Sunday at Lambeau Field against the Green Bay Packers. There is scrutiny over his accuracy and mechanics as he has completed 52.9% of his passes, lowest among 48 starters, with a 22.1% off-target rate ranking 47th. Coach Kevin O'Connell is rebuilding McCarthy's mechanics, emphasizing a consistent posture at the top of his drops and the connection between feet and eyes. O'Connell praised McCarthy's pre-snap work but urged faster improvement post-snap and steadier fundamental execution. McCarthy compared his progress to a cork about to come off a bottle.
