Or they at least want to make sure this new guy can go a few weeks without screwing up. Could have had our QBOTF where we drafted Cutting.... SMH!

Vikes_Bolts1228 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Since we're pretty much out of playoff hopes, I'm back rooting for the better draft pick (currently 12th). We could get back to the top-10 if Carolina (10th) beats us. Dallas (4th) and Washington (5th) play each other so one of those teams will go to 4 wins. Detroit (11th) and Houston (9th) play each other so one of those teams will end up with another win Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purplexing Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Pre-emptive, obligatory knee-jerk reaction to projected loss to Carolina: CUT {insert name of goat after game is complete and Viking player with most mistakes is known}!!! FIRE ZIMMER!!! FIRE TEN-PICK RICK!!! FIRE ZYGI!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like a lot of the things that he has done so was very slow and deliberate in coming to the conclusion that I want Wilf to fire him.

Like company CEO's, I think GM's and Coaching staff's have a 10 year shelf life these days. I think Spielman expiration date is due and Zimmer's coming up soon.

Uncle Buck Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 It's going to be fun to see Teddy in action again and not playing for the Saints. It's really something how much love the Minnesota fan base has for him. I hope he can feel the love - even if it's just from our cardboard cutout fans in the stands! At this point, I don't really know what to think about winning or losing, so I'll just hope for an entertaining game with no major injuries and let the chips fall where they may. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteelKing728 Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 After watching the Redskins/Cowboys game, I think its fair to say that we all know what an average defense looks like now. Minnesota doesn't have that. We're gonna need a lot of help to slow down DJ Moore and Robby Anderson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. However, the person following long term leaders are often criticized for not being like their predecessor. Who remembers the coaches that followed Don Shula, Paul Brown, Joe Gibbs or Bill Walsh? We might remember their names, but they didn't live up to the legacy of their predecessors. Of course, there is an exception to this rule...very rare...the Pittsburg Steelers. Over the last 40 years they have had only three head coaches. Those coaches have eight Super Bowl appearances between them winning six of them. To me, this is the better definition of success for a football team, than what the Patriots have done in the Belichick era. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Rick has done a pretty good job at being a GM and seems to be getting better at finding OL. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
