Vikings coordinator Ed Donatell 'not concerned' with defense's coverage woes vs. Eagles

Coordinator Ed Donatell said blown assignments were to blame for the Vikings defense allowing Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts to complete 26 of 31 passes for 333 yards – 251 by halftime of the 24-7 loss on Monday night — and that it's a matter of players adapting in the first season in the system.

"Not concerned. Everything is something we can fix," Donatell said Thursday. "Certain times you'll see them make a play, the quarterback will get out. That's what he does. Some other things we can fix. We always take a hard look at ourselves.
