Question for Geoff Nichols

[Lee 19]

Considering Cousins guarantee thru 2020 how likely is it that there would be a coaching change even if 2019 is a dissapointment? what coach would want to come in and be saddled woth Kirk for a year?

He’s probably already on staff... Stefanski

I had thought the same thing...But I figured KS would get a couple of seasons to curate b4 Zimsu heads out to the rich, green pastures of Kentucky. 

A lot would depend on RS' fate...New GM will want their own staff. 

But lets hope KC, Zimm and KS all get a Lombardi here before that happens. I refuse to give-up @ game 3, in spite of the broken record of Vikings losses and how those losses unfold.

GM may already be on staff too... Paton

what’s the point in replacing Rick with the hiy he hored as his assistant? And Stefanski would suceed as coach after a hypothetical dissapointing 2019?

I’m not sure what logic and/or confluence of events would
lead to Stefanski being a HC of the Vikings if you assume that Cousins is a
disappointment.  That just seems like “Stefanski
disappointed at his job in making Cousins workable, so we’re going to promote
him?”


To answer the original question, I don’t think any
prospective HC would care at all to be “saddled” with a veteran mid level QB
for a year.  That’s about the least
amount of burden possible and there’s the built in safety net that he’s at least
mid level.
