So if Zimmer and Stefanski go....
Who the hell do you get to replace them?
You're only given a little spark of madness. You mustn't lose it. — Robin Williams
I don't think Stef will take a job anywhere until the Zimmer situation is resolved. If Zimmer is traded the Vikings would almost certainly give their HC job to Stef and that would very likely be his 1st choice by several miles.
I think Bieniemy would get looked at. He's been here before. But I highly doubt we lose both.

Mike Tice?
He is the last Viking coach to win a road playoff game.

I doubt t it's Edwards
Whoever it is will be a big if and won't have the resume of Zimmer for developing a defense and players.
I say if we can find two guys that both agree Mike McCarthy is the best OL Coach option to teach our offensive line how to hold then hire them on the spot. :p
@"Vikergirl" said:If Zimmer leaves, Stef replaces him as HC and I'm guessing the Kubiak kid takes over as OC. I would assume that Edwards remains DC unless he goes with Zim. If he does, then I don't know. Maybe an outside hire. If Zim stays and Stef leaves, then same thing. Kubiak kids becomes OC. Or Schurmur. To me, the most important thing is continuity and that will remain as long as the Gary K remains@"MaroonBells" said: I don't think Stef will take a job anywhere until the Zimmer situation is resolved.

i think. we. should. keep. both. zim and. ric. they. are. giving. us. playoffsand. winning seasons. stability and. culture are. key. if. you. make. the. playoffs. you. got a. chance. . if we. fire. ric and zim. then. the odds. are. we do worse for. the. next. 30. years give a. year. or. two. there. how. many. of. us. here. have. that. left me if im. lucky. bring. 51
Dude, seriously what's with all the periods? Are you using a flip phone?

Have to give Zimmer credit, he totally outcoached Payton and our defense turned the clock back to 2017! I really can't see anyone hiring Stef as a HC, he has so much to prove as an OC yet, his play calling let them back in the game today.

But yes, I agree he has plenty of room to grow.

The last series after Brees fumble was 3 Viking plays that all went negative yards.
. The game shouldn't even have gone to overtime.
Maybe Zimmer told Stef to run the plays he did?
Who knows?
1 year as an OC isn't enough . He has more to learn IMO
I want to know why the league or team would allow an interview on a short week. Even the most professional person would be distracted from the task at hand with a quick trip to another city to discuss a career changing job opportunity. With a saturday game the coaches need to be game planning last night already for installment starting tomorrow IMO.
I'm wondering if that interview doesn't get rescheduled?
I'm also wondering how much credit Stefanski gets for our success? Is he as respected without Kubes and Dennison?
Per NFL Network the interview will happen still, but the venue changes to Minnesota.
@"BarrNone55" said: Per NFL Network the interview will happen still, but the venue changes to Minnesota.I still think its a shitty thing for his current team. I wonder what teams records are in the playoffs when their Coordinators interview the week of a playoff game?
