Awesome! One piece of the offensive puzzle down.

Here’s to the new season...! B)

This is the positive side of Shurmur becoming HC for the Giants. Top coaches know they can come here and advance their careers. It will be interesting to see what wrinkles he adds to the offense and how hiring him impacts which QB we keep/add. I would have been fine with Stefanski too, but DeFilippo having a little more experience is a nice thing.

Hopefully they retain Stefanski, but my guess is he's New Yawk bound...one step closer to a QB decision/resolution...

John DeFilippo - C - Vikings

Vikings hired Eagles QBs coach John DeFilippo as offensive coordinator.
It's a coup for the Vikings, as DeFilippo had reportedly been "leaning toward" staying in Philadelphia after being passed over for the Bears and Cardinals' head-coaching vacancies. On the rise since a well-regarded showing as the Browns' offensive coordinator in 2015, DeFilippo has earned raves for his work with Carson Wentz. DeFilippo is inheriting excellent talent at running back and receiver, but doesn't yet know which quarterback he will be coaching in 2018. It stands to reason DeFilippo will employ some of the play-calling optimization techniques he learned under Doug Pederson in Philly.

For now the Vikings are keeping Stefanski under contract. I don't think they'll do him dirty and block him from a promotion. But I'm sure the Vikings want to get a new QB coach setup before letting him walk away.

I think we sign one of our three QBs to a long term contract within a week. If we dont then I think we are going for Cousins

Makes sense...We all want whats best for THE TEAM and I believe they'd do right by him if there is a promotion in play.
