BG won by 27 LOL!!!
Zimm threw Kubiak under the bus last night for not running the ball enough(didn't we go through this 2 yrs ago with Stefanski?) - even though GB had stopped them repeatedly, so he upped the % of passes.
Hey Zim! Before pointing out the splinter in his eye, you may want to look at your defensive play calling that is like a tree branch sticking out of your eye socket! Zim took zero responsibility for the loss.
Imagine if 2 yrs ago the Wilfs had fired Zim and retained Stefanski as HC? Now THAT would have been interesting where as a team the Vikes would be at today. I guarantee that they'd be a lot more fun to watch with a 65/35 pass/run offense!
Here is the REAL dilemma facing the Wilfs: So if you fire Zim, who do you get to replace him? All the proven guys have HC jobs, so they'd have to take a chance on new blood, and that at best means flipping a coin on results. Look at the last 10yrs of other teams going thru HCs every 2 or 3 yrs.... that's a distinct possibility that could happen here... (groan....)
The key players are all under contract for next year. Thus I think they will retain Zim and Spielman. It's a shitty situation as they are sitting in their crap, but the gamble of rebuilding is that you can get a HC with the shits and vomiting at the same time (can you say 2 and 15?)
But if things don't turn around next season (a dbl digit win record) - I think that the Wilfs will sell the Vikings and let the new owner start all over in 2023. Meaning if not a winning record by the end of Oct,, actively seek a buyer for the team before years end so the new owners can get the front office and coaches that they want in place. But this will mean at last 2 yr rebuilding process, if not 3 or 4 yrs.
it sucks to be a Vikings fan.
