The ONLY interim coach I know of to lead a team to the playoffs in recent memory was the Raiders coach last year, but that was a team with a winning record and a stacked roster expected to make the playoffs. The situation was nothing like this at all IMO.

And he arguably should have been retained.

This teams is in the playoffs? Also this team is gonna get its ass whipped. Cowboys will not let us run in them and Diggs wants some more interceptions from Darnold. Making the playoffs is pointless. 

The whole point of my post was the hypothetical that we win out And make the playoffs.

Obviously if we don't it's different.

I hated the darnold trade, but had a feeling he was humbled by being benched and he learned while being out, I knew he was going to better in his return 

I think we would have won more if he had started the season

Maybe. Hard to know for sure. But he was also injured, so.

Perhaps the injury was a blessing in itself as it allowed him to continue to sit and learn?

Someone did mention he was watching other games as well (probably seeing what other QBs are doing and what he can do to better himself)....

 

I'll say this for him :  He's come a long way from that ridiculous Podcast appearance where he had an over-inflated opinion of himself.

It was definitely a blessing. It got Rhule fired.

Darnold does seem to have worked hard to improve himself when he wasn't starting. That speaks to characteristics you want in a QB, even a backup QB.

      OK, I'll apologize...somewhat

      I mean, I think you're being a little hyperbolic with the last statement, but point taken.

      Incredibly proud of this team

      Pass rush was the biggest issue in tonight’s game, and we were tied for 28th in sacks this season. That is a major area of need that has to get addressed this offseason. I just don’t see a path where there’s a game changing QB you can bring in with where we are drafting and quality of veterans that will be available. We certainly can do better than Dalton as a backup, and should ideally have a developmental guy  (perhaps a day 3 pick this year). We have bryce for one more year on a reasonable contract and then I think 2027 is the year that you reset that position (unless he massively improves).

      Agreed, honestly basically bringing this group back as a healthy unit would be alright.  Brady Christensen should be resigned to a very reasonable deal with him recovering from the Achilles.  Atleast we're alright at 4 of our 5 spots with Lewis, Mays, Hunt, and Moton, Nijman was decent.  While if we can snag a deal on someone, take a stab, however our resources need to go to Linebacker, Pass Rush and a real option outside Tmac (coker is amazing, but if we can get someone who isnt braindead opposite Tmac, we can fully unleash Coker AND Tmacs full potential, cant move him into the slot if racoon boy is out there licking doorknobs).
