FIRE FRAZIER!!

[zamboni]

First things first. E.J. Henderson has to go or be moved to the outside. He has no clue how play mlb. Watching him try to cover and/or play the pass is a joke. He's a tackling machine but nothing more.

Give Greenway or Winfield the green dot as well.

[zepman]

EJ is really having a bad year...he simply can't cover anything in the middle of the field. That's exactly where all three teams have attacked us in the 2nd half of our games. It is painfully obvious he's seen his better days.

[bucketmouth64]

Nfl is a league of copying how teams beat other teams and I'm sure it's out we can't cover the middle, our safeties are terrible, and mcnasty completes a pass as often as I shoot a duck...which is not often. Teams will put 6-8 in the box to stop AP and dare us to try and pass. Position coaches better start coaching up their players. They are not doing a good job.

[hunter76]

Mcnabb is out of shape and our O-line is a joke.

[FISHINGURU]

I've said for years we have the worst covering LB's in the league. TE's and WR's going over the middle have shredded us for a long time.

[LMITOUT]

Leslie is in over his head.

Pretty much everything I said prior to the season is coming to fruition, yet I was labeled a troll.

Go figure.

bump.

[MuleShack]

Oh my, our defensive LB and backs are way over matched in this game.

Dont know if it is the lack of talent or the coaching but we really looked bad tonight with the exception of a few sacks.

I guess these guys are Frazier's people, he was the D coord for a few years prior so he had a say in who they drafted or signed...

The offense I can blame partly on Chilly yet, but they let Rice get away and we do have a quarter back to build on which is 1 bright spot.

[PurpleFloyd]

Looks like he had the Packers right where they wanted him.

[Steve Foss]

Interesting. Frazier appeared somewhat tentative. So did Ponder. Not surprising in a rookie head coach and rookie quarterback. After the last year or two of chilliheaval and the Favredramatics, and now the whole where-are-the-Vikings-going-to-live debacle, it's really no mystery why this talented team is faltering.

There's been precious little continuity over the last several years.

Looks like we had the Packers right where we wanted them.

And we let them off the hook......

Limt, you are football smart, you know the game, you are usually pretty spot on, when making predictions, but you are a troll. There is no questioning that!

[reinhard1]

!!!!!!good luck.

[FISHINGURU]

Don't let LMITOUT fool you, he's wrong as much as he's right, only difference is when he's wrong you don't see him post for a few weeks, when he's right he goes back and quotes himself and bumps it lol.

Kinda like what Pier does with his boy T-Junky.

[pushbutton]

Leave Lmit alone! Ok, you have to substitute Lmit for Britney and he for she, but you get my point.....

[reinhard1]

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!good luck.

We could go back and bump some of your "gems" but we might overload the server.

[LMITOUT]

How is canning Leslie not at the forefront of conversations about this team? Games like Monday night were the demise of Childress (didn't he get fired after a GB game?), yet all you hear are crickets and this team is much, much worse than anything we've seen come out of Winter Park in a decade or more.

Leslie is supposed to be a defensive minded coach, isn't he? That is supposedly his background. Average points given up this year: 27+....TWENTY SEVEN!

I vividly recall his introductory press conference when he said that he liked how things were run and didn't plan on making many changes. That right there sent a flag up the pole that this guy was a complete non-starter and would continue the tradition of mediocrity which is the Vikings...and people bought into it once again.

Leslie is a dud and needs to go before he screws up another draft or wastes another five to ten years of time needed to turn this team around.

[zepman]

Solid post...I agree.

[fishersofmen]

I would have to agree....for all the "Fire Childress" cheerleaders how you liking your new guy? I knew it was a mistake from the beginning. Frazier isn't fit to carry Chili's jock strap.

[FISHINGURU]

Same as you, or anyone else that gives there opinion. But we do all agree on you being a troll

You have to give a guy a chance for a couple seasons before you can fire him, half way through his first year is to early, especially with a whack season this one has been. There was to many holes to fill for it to be done in 1 off season.

I remember not to long ago people not liking McCarthy, wanting him fired, now just a couple years later he's reguarded as one of the best coaches in the league. Same with many coaches and coordinators.

If we go through another offseason and we blow goats next year then yeah call for his head. Chilly is the reason the teams depth chart is bad. Atleast we might of got a franchise QB in this draft and a promising TE.

[FISHINGURU]

Even if Frazier ends up not being the right guy we all know Chilly was not the answer. Frazier probably doesn't like to carry around half a peanut shell and dental floss.

What does Chili do for a living right now?

[zepman]

I agree with that too...doesn't make the Frazier hire the right one though.

I have a really hard time with coaches who don't show any emotion or "fire". Some have been successful with this personality type...usually those with a superior team.

I'll take Frazier over Chilly...I just don't think anybody in the league...players, most importantly...would welcome the opportunity to play for Chilly.

We need help via free agency with many of our positions...Frazier MAY be able to lure some of those guys in here...Chilly would have had to over-pay for every single guy we got. They simply would not have wanted to come here under his direction.

The Vikes are a mess, plain and simple. It'll take years to rebuild what Spielman and Childress has done to this franchise.

Spielman should not be left off the hook here...the draft success the last 5 years is horrendous.

[FISHINGURU]

I hear ya, not saying Frazier is the right guy at all, just sayin it isn't fair to blame him for this mess YET. I'd much rather have a guy with fire like say Tomlin then a guy that sits on their thumb all game like Dungy.

I've always thought we should get Cowher or Gruden, although after listening to Gruden on Monday Night Football I don't know if I'd want him as a coach anymore lol.

I dunno if any coach could make this team win right now playing with 2 safeties that shouldn't be in the league and 3rd-4th string corners, can't forget about the LB's that probably can't even cover themselves up at night.

We'll have to see how the rest of the season goes and then see what is done in the offseason. I thought we'd atleast be a .500 club. Sad that we let 4-5 games slip away that we should of easily won.

You know it's bad when we just had to sign Benny Sapp.

[LMITOUT]

Bump.
