CC is s right...The Vikings got better with KM. 

All bets off for 27, but JJ will most likely get some chances to start this year. 

I hope he makes the most of those opportunities!

I don't understand how this maths out.

I go to Profootball Reference, it says his record is 38-48-1.

So half his losses (26ish out of 48) were them winning, but the defense lost the game on the last drive?

Am I missing something here?

Dunno. But here's where it came from...

Good discussion about Murray starting around the 9 minute mark.  Also some JJM talk after that.

I have it on good authority that 47.6% of all statistics are made up on the spot!

Wow, just from the games I watched him play in over the years the trend was the defense did let him down more often than not but that statistic is eye opening.
