O’Connell simply completed his third season as the top coach in Minnesota. He led the Vikings to a 14-3 file, however that was not sufficient to win the NFC North.
The Detroit Lions beat the Vikings in Week 18, which led to the Lions securing the No. 1 seed and the Vikings having to journey to face the Los Angeles Rams within the wild-card spherical. Minnesota had a disappointing 27-9 loss in that sport.
General, O’Connell has a file of 34-17 with the Vikings. He’s 0-2 within the playoffs.
A current report claimed multiple teams had expressed interest in trading for O’Connell and that Minnesota would possibly take into account it. That by no means appeared practical, because the 39-year-old O’Connell has rapidly develop into top-of-the-line coaches within the NFL.
The Vikings have a big decision to make at the quarterback position this offseason. Now that the O’Connell hypothesis has been put to relaxation, they will begin specializing in that.
