What's the point of firing him now? Who takes over?
I'm in agreement actually. Kubiak or Capers? No, let's go forward, not back in time. Patterson, Zimmer Jr., Dennison, and Kubiak Jr. are all firmly attached to Zimmer and/or Kubiak's apron strings. A lot of successful NFL head coaches have been on Vikings' coaching staffs in the past, but I don't think there is a Tomlin or Stefanski here presently.
Also, if you change coaches midseason, teams often get a bounce and win a few games - and destroy their draft chances.
