Some miscellaneous stuff

[GNG]

He may be, but how many more chances is he going to get? I have low expectations for him. He also made bone headed drive extending plays.

I agree, he has been very erratic.

 

[GNG]

Bet he ends up in Minnesota with Zimmer.

Why?

 

[Schmoopy1000]

Why?

they are familiar with each other & had success together.
Minnesota lost atleast 3 DBs this offseason. Zimmer knows how to get the most out of DBs in his defense.

Zimmer is on thin ice in Minnesota.

ok.
How does that have anything to do with replacing lost DBs?

I don't believe the Vikings will sign that guy as Zimmer doesn't have the final say on personnel anymore.

He may not have final say but he still has input. If his ice were that thin they would have just let him go after the season

He made the playoffs so he is getting another chance.

so explain how that argument goes.

Hey we arent gonna give you the guys you think you need or want. Just use some scrubs to fill in for the lost players.

I honestly never knew he had final say before. I just know as a head coach you tell the powers that be. I need/want this guy or that guy. if the powers that be arent listening or give a shit about his opinion. They might as well get rid of him now.

Exactly. So if you give a guy another chance but don't give him what he needs, whose fault is that

They should have fired his ass last year.

The personnel head.

Mike Zimmer is a damn good football coach. If one of his DB's hadn't made the biggest blunder ever a couple of years ago, they likely win a Super Bowl. They are lucky to have him

 

[Sir Robin Of Camelot]

I never saw this before

Legendary.

True story - A few years back, Drew went to St. Paul to do a signing show. I tweeted him jokingly saying “Stay clear of security guards”. A couple of days later he tagged me in a return tweet with a picture of him AND the guard at the signing. That is my only claim to Twitter fame... and I enjoyed the hell out of it.

Zimmer is stubborn and reportedly hasn't meshed well with the personnel dept. The Vikings were badly outplayed by the Packers in Minnesota last season and it caused a rift between him and management.

 

[Schmoopy1000]

Again. They didnt. So he as the HC & the available DB seems like a good fit for each other. I really dont see how these things you're saying has anything to do with what I am talking about?

List the NFL Head Coaches who aren't stubborn...we just parted ways with possibly the most affable HC in the league. Has zero to do with him bring a quality HC.

Zimmer doesn't have the final say on available free agents.

How many Super Bowls has Zimmer reached as a HC?

 

[Schmoopy1000]

No one has ever implied that. Like ever.

I made a prediction & you asked why I thought that. (I am not PE1 claiming it will happen definitely)

If you think differently so be it. but all the shit you are saying is irrelevant to what I have said.


So if I follow your logic from your responses.

A. He wont play for Zimmer because the powers that be wont let it happen to spite their own HC

B. He should be fired so screw the team, lets not care what the HC thinks.

It doesnt matter that he fits Minnesota's defensive scheme nor does it matter they lost a bunch of DBs this offseason.
