So let's hear it on our favorite polarizing player, Kyler Murray!

How do you think Kyler Murray is going to work out in Minnesota? Closes 2 days from now
He's going to kill it, deep playoff run and possible discussions for a long-term contract 41% (13)
He'll have his moments, but injured a few games and too much hero ball. Very average. 50% (16)
I just can't see Murray being successful in a KOC style offense, he's overrated....might not be QB1 9% (3)

Let's also not forget that when OConnell arrived, it took a seasoned pro like Kirk Cousins a full offseason in the system and playing in games for half the year before he was even comfortable operating in it. It's complex by all accounts with a lot of moving parts. McCarthy has had two years learning the system while Murray is coming in brand new and having to learn it from square one. McCarthy is going to be substantially ahead of Murray in that regard.

Without question, McCarthy is going to know the offense better than Murray does. But there are several things an experienced QB does that young QBs haven't yet mastered. Protections, hard-count reveals, safety manipulation, throwing guys open, pre-snap reads, and just a calmness or "quiet mind" as some call it. These are the advantages that Murray will have over McCarthy regardless of scheme.
