Not that Kevin O’Connell is not amazing, but Sam Donald credits sitting on the bench with the 49ers with his transformation.
 

The truth probably lies somewhere in the middle.

Will be interesting if the Vikings let him walk if he can replicate the success. Because whatever team signs him will definitely be worse than the Vikings talent-wise.

KOC has had his guys outperforming expectations every year on the job.  He's a very very good coach.

Darnold also stopped making the "Darnold" mistakes.  He's really grown with that offense, JJ/Addison and the playcalling aside.  

And that defense with Metellus, Murphy, Greenard, & VG has been strong.  

They're a team I wouldn't mind seeing make a run.  Fun offense, fun defense, great coaching, on the up and up.

Darnold is a nice story although I still see the bad Sam moments from time to time. That Green Bay game, for example, had the bad interception and generally shaky play near the end of the game. Also, Vikings are generally great at surrounding their QB with great offensive pieces, which has helped prior Vikings QBs like Kirk Cousins. But you're supposed to give your QB what they need to succeed, however. Darnold didn't have that at all with the Jets. He had a few okay pieces here which is why he had some good stretches but had some stinkers as well. If Darnold's smart, I'd not go nuts with whatever money he's going to demand, so he can keep most of the good pieces around him.

There's no way they can let him walk. They're going to pay him $50 million, it would be wild if he went full Daniel Jones next season.

No concerns of a one hit wonder ala Deshaun Watson, Matt Cassell, Derek Anderson and the beloved Steven Beuerlein?

Steve b put up monster stats for the panthers offense was best its ever been under him he holds severalof the panthers best qb in a season records.  He just got his chance to shine too late in life played well after he left also but injuries and age caught up.

Canalas should be considered qb whisperer with how young when from horriffic to a passable nfl qb.  

I know this topic has been more about other coaches but I agree. Young was horrendous in the beginning but Canales woke him up, st him for awhile and put him back in the lineup and has played well. Young still has a lot of improving to do but is definitely trending up.

    • Some of you who are not sold on Canales are insane. His main purpose was to turn around Bryce Young’s career and he did that. Of all of the teams in the top 10 of the NFL draft, we were the team that was consistently showing the most fight week in and week out. Our players never quit on the season. The offense which he is responsible for took a huge step forward compared to last year, despite the lack of skill talent  that we have. It was our defense that was a mess. That’s one of my critiques on Canales. He should’ve gotten rid of Evero and hired his own DC that shares the same vision. But as a whole, I can’t see how people are not pleased with what Canales did with this team. I’d give him an 9/10
    • One of the first thoughts after the game yesterday was that JT was going to jump all over it. He's been more favorable about BY from the beginning, and so yesterday must've felt like Christmas.
    • Maybe, but they were always going to be an impossible team to accurately mocked right now. They have an absurd amount of cap room, what they need right now will not be what they need come draft day.  They can make multiple big splash signings and even make trades for players who need new contracts and their teams don't want to give it to them. OT and WR might be their two biggest needs right now, but it wouldn't be unreasonable to think they could go into the draft needing neither of them.  I think a LT will be their top FA priority, also think they're going to make a big offer to Higgins, and I could see them being a team in the running to trade for someone like DK Metcalf as they need a WR like him and they have the cap space to give him a big new contract.
