Hoping Jerry Jones still admires Zimmer to hire him away from the Vikings .

Not entirely sure all this is on Zimmer.....Off Cordinators are showing warts. Hopefully they have a great game plan for Sunday.

How is it that the offense only goes full throttle aggressive when the Vikings are losing?

Last time the Vikings got aggressive was vs Denver

Since
It’s a series of screens and human enema running plays

The offense was much more open in the first half of the season

So the offensive coaches just decided to clam Up?

Sorry I don’t buy that at all.

It comes from the top.

Zimmer has controlled the offense as much as possible.

Added check-down passes

They have to be more aggressive
Saints have given up points when attacked

Thielen has to be targeted more
Digs deep more

Only way they win

Thomas will have a field day vs Rhodes

They are the underdog in the playoffs on the road....they better play like they are 10 down at all times.

New Orleans

Bad matchup

Looking ar a blowout if the Vikes try to play not to lose.

Stay home, save the airfare.
Seriously.
Just another embarrassing playoff defeat.
I see we're approaching Twins Territory, something like 2-14 in the last 16 playoff appearances?
WTH is wrong with us?

Zimmer says "why not us?"
Question is, "why us?"

Only good thing about watching that heavyweight battle in Seattle last night, was realizing GB has zero shot at advancing, either.
SF is the real deal. Loaded.
Look how quickly they went from joke, to King of the NFL.
Don't tell me it can't be done, just fricking do it once.

Apparently not

Crazy how so many NFL jobs are basically one year or two
Kitchens, etc …
We're patient to a fault.

In almost every sport

The Gardy era

The wolves bumbling

The wild

And the Vikings

Patience to be mediocre at best

No way Kubiak takes on a full time HC job again with his health issues.

Many people forget how much Kubiak loves to run the ball....he just trusted Peyton more to change the play.

Lol

I didn’t forget

I don’t get how much you’re defending Zimmer

He’s THE main reason the clammed up.

But go ahead and blame it on someone else; I guess it will be one more year before the Zimmer contract is over, the cap jail has taken its toll on an overrated defense and underperforming offense. Another year down the drain.

Enjoy

Ok so him being mentioned as a Dallas head coach possibility by an alleged “insider” had no merit last night. Got it.

Gus Frerotte started the last game the #Vikings won in New Orleans.

Bernard Berrian led Minnesota in receiving while Bobby Wade had the most receptions.

Devery Henderson was the offensive star for the #Saints that day.

Ed I am not that happy with Zimmer or Spielman either....they make the playoffs, just wondering who we would put in those roles. I agree the biggest fault of Zimmer/Spielman isn't the talent they acquire, it is holding on to guys too long. AP, Allen, and now Rhodes as prime examples.

We wouldn't have made the playoffs w/o Kubiak this year....but he isn't really a golden boy either. Denver had a ton of talent on Defense when he took over for Fox. I actually really liked Shurmur as OC. The one thing about Zimmer is that he is able to coach up talent....he just isn't good enough to win it all.....but neither was Chilly, Neither was Green.....

Zimmer can coach up some talent
The d backfield is now a mess

That’s on him

The middle of the dline is no longer stout

He’s misused Barr for a long time

He’s a playmaker not a cover and tackle guy

Time to move on

As for replacing

It’s not like Spielman is the best gm ever

John Lynch has embarrassed the long timers

New leadership is needed

There were reports that some Saints fans even drove the field that day in those modern, 4-wheel contraptions called …. Auto-mobeeeeeels

If you believe the Vikings have a chance

Maybe the inexperienced guys will save the d backfields butt

Mike Hughes has been placed on IR and is out for Sunday. Mackensie Alexander also out. Kendricks is in

After Sunday’s disaster is over

Clean house

Bring Shurmur back to guide Cousins

If he can get a career year out of Keenum
With Zimmer in charge

He’d do well with some non pucker up coach in charge

You're pounding the other team on the ground

and you pull out pretty much the same trick play that didn't work vs the Packers.

Why
