Let's just get on a damn run and make some noise already! Win 3 of the next 4!

Let's win em all. I'm greedy.

I've said it a bunch. They both get to the NFC title game. Both 1-2 in the playoffs. Childress did it in fewer years and we probably had worse talent. Of course Zimmer got punked in the title game so maybe they didn't have the exact same results. Nonetheless not a whole lot of difference between the 2 is my point.

You've already factored in no playoff win for this year. Zimmer winning % .603. That's after inheriting a 5-10-1 team. And current team on an upswing. Chili winning % .527. That's after inheriting a 9-7 team. Got fired with the team a dumpster fire. Who gets credit for 4th round picks that turn into perennial pro-bowl DEs? Any coaching come into play there?

David Levine -> RE: General Vikes Talk (12/7/2019 8:19:00 PM)
Do they have a winning percentage trophy? Does PFF hand it out? More years, same number of playoff appearances, same number of playoff wins.

Richard Neussendorfer -> RE: General Vikes Talk (12/7/2019 8:31:59 PM)
I haven't factored anything in this year. Why would I when we haven't made the playoffs yet? Who gets credit for an all pro corner turning into a turd overnight? Can't look at one and not the other. Who gets credit for having a load of first and second round picks on the defense and can't even get them to play to average level as of late?

Richard Neussendorfer -> RE: General Vikes Talk (12/7/2019 9:02:32 PM)
Chili beat Dallas, lost to Philly and NO. Zimmer beat NO lost to Philly and Seattle. Or so I thought.

Mark Anderson -> RE: General Vikes Talk (12/7/2019 9:09:56 PM)
What great coach have we missed out on during the Zimmer era? Almost every coach that would be in the Playoffs right now has been with their team longer than Zimmer.

Richard Neussendorfer -> RE: General Vikes Talk (12/7/2019 9:17:54 PM)
Hopefully we can come out tomorrow with some ferocity and beat the Lions down handily. I would love it if our defense could regain some form! Do they start Rhodes?

You wonderfully laid out a supporting argument on my initial statement on the matter. Thanks again buddy!

It doesn't show Zimmer to be better, just that your statement that Chili did it in fewer years is incorrect. When Chili was fired, he had turned this team into a steaming pile. So far at least, Zimmer has the team competitive in most games. Whether Zimmer ultimately is remembered as the better head coach remains unknown. While it's extremely frustrating watching what was a very good defense turn to crap way to often, I remain hopeful that Zimmer pulls his head out of his ass or motivates the defense to pull their collective heads out of their collective asses soon.

Good post Hagar! I agree with the defense comments. If we can get back to "solid" who knows what could happen. Looking up Chili's years I forgot about the 8-8 season. Whoops!

JT2 -> RE: General Vikes Talk (12/8/2019 12:06:53 AM)
Tomorrow will be our sixth game our defense played against a back-up QB. Let that sink in, when evaluating our defensive numbers. We also missed playing against Barkley (and Gallman, for the most part) and Kerryon Johnson. Blough and Scarbrough tomorrow. We beat teams like this.
