Great coaches don’t just win games, they expose the opposition in the process.
That has been Kyle Shanahan’s modus operandi for nearly two decades as an offensive play-caller in the NFL.
But on Sunday in Minneapolis, Shanahan wasn’t the one winning the X’s and O’s battle.
No, it was the Vikings’ play-callers, head coach Kevin O’Connell and defensive coordinator Brian Flores, who looked like masterminds in a 23-17 Minnesota win.
“I think he had a very good game plan against us,” George Kittle said of Flores.
