Vikefans founder Tom Moore tweeted yesterday that he had heard Zimmer was going to be fired had the Vikings lost to the Chargers or Packers.  Will be interesting to see if the Wilf’s make a move Friday if they lose to Pittsburgh.

Coach - Years until first SB Appearance - Years until first SB Win
Belichick - 7 -7
Payton - 4 - 4
Tomlin - 2 - 2
Harbaugh - 5 - 5
Carroll - 8 - 8
Reid - 6 - 21
Zimmer - 7 years without SB Appearance

Another thing that would be interesting to look up is which ones got their SB with an elite QB and if it was on their rookie contract or not.

To me, Harbaugh is the only one that didn't have an elite QB for his SB win, and Reid for his first appearance.  I think Zimmer and Spielmans biggest failing is not really making any attempts to acquire an elite QB.


Some will argue that they have an elite QB.
( or at least close enough to elite)

Sure, he’s Elite in the same way as Jared Goff.  If you surround him with Elite Coaches, Elite
receivers, Elite RBs, a great OLine, and a competent defense, he can be elite
