Giants are facing a J.J. McCarthy question that the Vikings never answered

Michael Haney of GMEN HQ argues that the New York Giants face questions over whether quarterback J.J. McCarthy can maintain consistency after an impressive debut start against the Houston Texans. Despite sparking the Giants' offense under Matt Nagy to an NFC East lead, McCarthy previously struggled to string together multiple strong performances during his tenure with the Minnesota Vikings.

Haney emphasizes that McCarthy's long-term success requires strong offensive support, noting that the running game featuring Cam Skattebo helped close out Week 7 in overtime. He adds that secondary receiving targets like Malachi Fields must consistently complement primary options Malik Nabers and Isaiah Likely.
