TENINCH Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 I'm Mike Zimmer. My QB and top offensive player were never never drafted. I also built this defense. I'm Sean McVay. My QB and top offense player were 1st round picks. This defense was already in place when I took this job. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm better looking than Mike Zimmer, which makes for a much more appealing video package! Edited December 31, 2017 by y*so*blu 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swede700 Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 Zimmer can like Payton on a personal level...we don't. Even removing the whole Bountygate issue, I've never cared for Payton. He's always seemed like a jack*** to me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heimdallr Posted January 11, 2018 Author Share Posted January 11, 2018 I hope we blow out the Saints so badly that Payton gets fired and we can hire him as OC... More realistically, I wonder if Zim will look at one of the NO assistant coaches for a new OC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure why. Perhaps just got usurped by the new big thing at coordinator. Presuming Shurmur bolts and there is an opening at OC, have to imagine it is a coveted job. Solid talent base and Zimmer is not going to meddle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one here would want that Joe Lombardi guy, despite him being born in Minnesota (and his dad used to be a Vikings' season ticket holder). He was a terrible OC in Detroit and also was the Saints' QB coach during the 2009 NFCC. That's too many strikes against him.

Klomp Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 I feel like something as simple as this is what separates average coaches from great coaches. Don't just look at your side of the ball. Look at what the offense saw on D too. Schemes may not match up, but situations can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swiss_vike Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Zimmer ignores matchups. Putting best 5 offensive line man in the game is simply ignoring matchups. What's the better matchup? Hill against Barnett or Sirles/Isidora against Jernigan? Beside fundamentals and techniques (Zimmer is top notch here), coaching in the NFL is 2 things: 1) Matchups (strategical) 2) Adaptions (tactical) I think that Zimmer is average in tactics and bad on the strategic level. Don't misunderstand me, I love Mike Zimmer. But he's lacking in certain areas that I think are needed to get teams to the next level of success. Both Saints and Eagles games have shown that pretty clear. He coached not to loose. Compare how the Eagles came out of halftime, up 17 points, to how the Vikings came out of haltfime, up 17 points against the Saints. Night and Day. (And take into acount that Eagles faced a backup QB and Vikings faced a HOF QB). What Doug did was championship football, what Mike did is hoping for the best. Maybe he'll learn, but it's hard to get out of your skin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDBrocks Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 I disagree. Zimmer was not out there missing tackles. Zimmer was not throwing innacurate passes into coverage. Iwill concede that there might have been another line combination, but we don’t know that for sure. Sirles has been bad, Hill has been a very good pass blocker, and Isidora would have been getting his first start in an NFCCG. Not an ideal scenario in any configuration. The Vikings don’t have a head coaching problem. They had their worst day as a defense all season and didn’t have a QB that can compensate for those kind of days. Let’s not overreact and think that they can’t get back here and improve its some of the pieces they have coming back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
