From the article

In obvious passing situations during that stretch (where NFL Next Gen Stats projected that the Vikings had at least a 75% probability of throwing the football pre-snap), McCarthy was 21-of-31 for 291 yards with a touchdown and no interceptions. He actually had the best EPA per pass dropback of any quarterback from Week 13 onward in those clear passing situations.

McCarthy led all QBs in EPA per dropback in obvious passing situations from Week 13 onward.

In obvious passing situations during his final four starts (where NFL Next Gen Stats projected at least 75% probability of throwing pre-snap), McCarthy was 21-of-31 for 291 yards with 1 TD and 0 INTs; he had the best EPA per pass dropback of any quarterback from Week 13 onward in those clear passing situations, suggesting competence when asked to throw.
