the softer stretch in Weeks 3-5 will give the team time to settle in with Kyler Murray at the helm... 11-6 would be a great first season for Kyler Murray with the Vikings... The Vikings don't need Murray to play like an MVP candidate.

Kyler Murray projects Kyler Murray to lead the Vikings to an 11-6 record in his first season with the team. The softer schedule stretch in Weeks 3-5 will give the team time to settle in with Murray at the helm. Kyler Murray emphasizes that the Vikings don't need Murray to play like an MVP candidate—they need him to avoid the mistakes that have followed him throughout his career and make the plays that are there when they present themselves. If he can do that, 11-6 feels very realistic; if he plays better than that, the Vikings could surprise some people. Kyler Murray was late to come around to the idea of Murray leading the team but believes Kevin O'Connell can make it work.
