and everyone cheers because a man should just subject himself to the common narrative. Nothing bad ever happens from that.

Well....that should send a message.

At little cost to us (seriously, how many of us have been wondering if he was really up to the task anyway?), Vikings send a shot across the bow of all other deniers. Hopefully this sends a message to all players and staff before we need to fire someone whose departure really will hurt us.

An unvaccinated Tier 1 staffer, a group that includes coaches, can’t be around players or other coaches. That means Dennison would have had to coach the season from his office.

Bio on Phil Rauscher who takes over for Dennison. Has experience with the Kubiaks.
Phil Rauscher joins the Vikings staff in 2020 for his sixth NFL season after most recently serving as the offensive line coach for the Washington Redskins in 2019. Rauscher will work with Offensive Line/Run Game Coordinator Rick Dennison, who he coached with on the Denver Broncos staff during the 2015-16 seasons. Rauscher also coached alongside current Vikings coaches Gary Kubiak, Brian Pariani and Klint Kubiak as a member of the Broncos coaching staff.
Rauscher was promoted from assistant offensive line coach to offensive line coach when Assistant Head Coach/Offensive Line Coach Bill Callahan was appointed interim head coach prior the Washington's sixth game of the 2019 season. In the 11 games Rauscher served as offensive line coach, the Redskins totaled 1,239 rushing yards and average 4.62 yards per carry, the eight-best average in the NFL during that span.

This is what gets me. If you cant really coach the players in person or around other coaches because of the rules that have been put in place, then what's the point of having you as a coach?

The only thing holding me back from hammering our Vegas overs win total # is the apparent anti-vaxxers at critical positions.

Whether anyone agrees with them or not, if a few key guys (like Kirk for one…) miss 3 weeks of football, the Vikings are in trouble.

Mike Zimmer is not a coach known for his adjustments on the fly. And Kubiaks kid is not a coach known for anything. From a football standpoint, the vaccine thing is worrisome.
