Okay, I guess I should have read it. It would definitely take a Super Bowl win to put Zimmer in the conversation with Bud (not even just 1 appearance I think would be enough). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
since72 Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 FWIW there were no salary cap and free agency either when Bud Grant coached. A completely different era. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikings209 Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 If we lose and Zimmer gets fired who would be his replacement? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine most people would be clamoring for Stefanski, although I wouldn't be comfortable with that at all. I honestly look out at the marketplace for head coaches and there isn't a single one of them that I like better than what we have now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SemperFeist Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 The only coach I would want to replace Zimmer with is Stefanski. I’m not interested in replacing Zimmer with someone who’d start over from scratch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not interested in replacing Zimmer with someone who’d start over from scratch. That is personally why I'm not interested in replacing Zimmer now. I don't think Stefanski is really ready yet, but maybe in a year. However, if they lose him to another team this offseason, then so be it. I'll wish him well. I'm not going to replace Zimmer simply because I'm afraid of losing Stefanski. If Stefanski is as smart as I think he is, he'll wait for a real good opportunity and not just take a job to take a job. So, if Cleveland comes calling again, I'd take a hard pass, if I were him. Same goes for probably Dallas (as I think the expectations would be too high...I think he could handle them, but his personality may be a little too much Garrett-esque for that fanbase). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If only Twitter had existed when the Wilfs said something similar about Tice...then I could see if it was the same language. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
