As the years go by it gets easier and easier. 1998 devasted me, 2001 frustrated me. Today I did not even get upset. You realize there are much more important things in life to care about, have a passion about.

It also helps when you see the losing players laughing and shaking hands with the winners after the game while us suckers actually care and get upset.

Schottenheimer

Cowher

Shanahan

Holmgren

Billick

Vermeil

and now possible Dungy.

Gold mine of available head coaches out there right now.

I would take any one of those guys. Here's the problem, we will sit with the one-who-thinks-I-am-silly through next year and then there will be no coaches available. Just like we do all the time.

i totally agree with everyone here, except my opinion zigy is in mad love with childress. he aint gonna get rid of him.

I don't know. I wasn't in the room for their meeting earlier this year, but here is what my thought is on what was said after the 0-2 start:

Zygi:

"Bench Jackson and start Gus or look for a new job. Now fetch me some coffee!!!!!"

I saw that as a move to appease the fans nothing more to create revenue. As many owners think the same even a loss in first round of playoffs is a winner. Ziggy is a businessman and gauges his investment on growth and Child has gotten a better record each season. Problem is were heading for another 10 years similar to Denny Green growth that gets us nowhere.

Hopefully he got the message from having a hard time selling out a playoff game that were tired of the same-oo.

I hope he is not stupid enough to think or blame the economy or holidays had much to do with lackluster enthusiasm on the part of the fans.

I worry about Leslie Frazier getting away as he seems to be a hot name now. He could be gone by the end of this week.

If I remember right, the only 2 assistants that were promoted up to head coach in Viking history were Steckel and Tice. They let Dungy, Billick and Tomlin walk away and maybe a few others I can't think of. This may be the time to finally promote from within and get the right one.

Why dont you guys get off the Frazier bandwagon. The defense sucked it up today bigtime. Other than a couple play the Eagles owned us. How many times did we have them third and long and couldnt stop them? The only reason we have the number 1 run defense is because teams can throw the ball on us at will. We couldnt tackle when it counted (see Westbrook TD).

Our offensive line looked like [PoorWordUsage] again today. They are highly overrated. I would like to see Peterson behind a good line. Look how much time T-donk had to throw the ball, then look at how much time McNothing had to throw the ball. Our defense made that loser look good again.

Chilly needs to go, he can take his QB with him. It would sure be nice to land a Shannahan or Billick and give them a Matt Cassel or Mark Bulger. Then we would be a couple draft picks away from a deep run into the playoffs. I dont think I can watch another season of 12 yards being considered a deep pass, and then ocassionally telling your donkey to go out there and throw it as far as he can and hope for the best. Flyingsaucer and Tahi are wasted bodies out there. It isnt that hard to find some recievers who have some speed and can catch the ball. Hopefully the next coach can design a play to get these guys open.

What bandwagon are you talking about. We know the coach has to go but we are realistic about the available coaches that would want to coach here. Dungy had his faults while here and look what he has done as a head coach. Heck I think he invented, or perfected to be worthless, the prevent defense that caused us to lose a lot of games. Frasier may not be a good choice or he may.

I thought The D was doing good untill Sharper went down then they exploited that. I really didnt think we would miss Sharper but I was proven wrong. Unless you were watching a differant game.

our defense dominates....our [PoorWordUsage] hole special teams give the ball to the other team in scoring position all the time and we shut them down..then we shut them down...then we shut them down....they are out there the whole game while the childress ran offense goes 3 and out the whole 2nd half.

we gave up 1 big play but who didn't have the feeling eventually it was gonna happen...you can't have your defense out there the whole half and not eventually give up a big play.

our D is plenty good enough to win a championship but not with poor coaching and no offense.

My brother is a huge Eagles fan, always has been. He had to call to rub it in last night. I said if we had a QB we would have walked over them and the coaching sucked as well. He said "yep, chillipepper is the reasy the Eagles lost three NFC Championship games and the Superbowl". He was glad he was gone.
