"Again, the interceptions happen when we're trying, you know, so I have no problem with that. If we're not throwing interceptions, we're not trying stuff."

I get Canales rationale here as the head coach. He's trying to encourage calm and patience.

But this logic to ugly turnovers could just have easily been applied to someone like Sam Darnold. Based on this logic he would still be here.

Wasn’t Darnold usually good during Camp? It was when games matter that he fe apart. Even though it seem like he is not doing well for the Vikings in training camp. Gonna be a LONG season for Vikings fans.

So if he sucked at out routes, then shouldn't he be testing limits with out routes in practice? Or should he just accept that he'll never throw out routes in the NFL? 

I didn't think he was particularly great at anything either, but to say he was almost picked on every single out route I thought was some real hyperbole. 

A DT getting an interception is rare. Occasionally happens in games, but thinking Bryce was pushing the limits to throw one in practice. Admittedly, I haven't seen a clip of it so I don't know what happened. Could have been a ball tipped 30 ft in the air for all I know. 

I mean, as I said, it's a message board.  There is naturally some cooked in hyperbole.  But his out routes sucked.  Tons were almost picked.

Spare me the Peyton Manning interception stuff. Manning threw 26 touchdowns his rookie season

You have all sorts of cases.  Didn't Peyton Manning set a record for INTs his rookie year?  It's a good way to grow and evaluate young QBs.  The probably for players like Darnold is they haven't seemed to learn from them and keep doing them in similar situations year after year.  As long as there is good with it, I'm happy with Bryce being more aggressive this year.   Hell even if it's just bad, it will tell us what we need to know.

Make sure you read all of the quote for context before you whine too much about it.

That’s what I was supposed to take away from you saying “as long as there’s good with it”

Especially when you’ve made it clear as day throughout these camp threads your standard of good is pretty damn low

im not a mind reader.

As long as there is good with it means he needs to have good plays with the bad.  I mean it's not that deep...

The Brady discussion has changed over the years hasn't it? Much was said about how much Belichick played a huge part in those championship runs but that's pretty much been dismissed now and everyone agrees Brady was the engine.

The people who swing between one extreme and another like this are in the wrong regardless of what "side" they take. Both were integral and without either of them they win a lot less than they did. Bill having a rough few last years because of his shortcomings as a GM doesn't change that. It takes extreme recency bias to downplay how legendary of a coach BB was.

They absolutely do not win in 2018 or 2001 without Bill. Not even factoring in how differently the season's would probably go without one of the better defensive minds of all time coaching the defense. Which could result in seeding changes and the Patriots drawing different matchups. For all we know Brady could've ended up having a similar career to Rodgers without the great defenses he was blessed with over the years.

Go watch 7’s and the difference between Young and Dalton’s decision making time. Night and day difference 

If you're super impressed by those really decisive 5-yard throws, then just keep the same energy if Bryce is dinking and dunking all season long (knock on wood).

    • No, both instances of references to the defense were specific to the run defense.  I should have said "run defense" the 2nd time.  You admit there has been ample personal issue but then use those stats to support your argument. I'm not arguing on the effectiveness of his specific scheme overall.  I'm saying he is only now getting the proper personal to run his scheme.  The stats are the stats and while I don't disagree with any of what you're saying, 3 years of those stats are based on the Panthers front office not giving him the tools to run a competitive NFL defense until this year with D. Brown getting healthy and the additional of Tre'von Moehrig. I want to see his defense when we don't have multiple key starter positions manned with players who would IMHO are not starting level players.  With some talent  I say all this while not being a big fan of his scheme.  I would prefer a 4-3 but that's neither here or there. And yes, I would call getting requests and interviews from other teams who want to hire him good evidence that he may be a pretty good DC and has a lot of potential as a HC. In 2022 he had HC requests from the Broncos, Colts, and Texans.  He also had requests for DC from the Vikings, Falcons and the Panthers.  We hired him to be our DC. In 2023 it was the Falcons, Raiders and Seahawks for a HC position. In 2024 the Falcons, Seahawks and the Panthers interviewd him for HC.  We blocked the Jags from a DC interview. In 2025 (which is this years hiring cycle) so far its the Falcons, Raiders and just today the Steelers, all for the HC position.  
    • The Giants still may be crap but they just improved somewhat by hiring Harbaugh,  
    • Yeah I was almost going to mention the finger but he did so well last week after whatever they did to it at halftime I let it go. It could get hit and messed up worse, it is a weak point.    Weather and home field crowd in Chicago are huge challenges no doubt. I can’t really be confident in LA but the inexperience of Chicago in a game with this stuff at stake is likely to be a factor, enough to make it hard to be confident in them. So who knows….
