Rick And Mike Out
Well crap, not that im devastated, but i wonder who their Consultant is/has been?
This is going to be one wild, interesting offseason. I'd start by looking at a GM candidate. Maybe it's just me, but none of these coaching candidates do it for me.
No more excuses for Zimmer and Speilman.......I have been supportive of them until this year, and Zimmer refused to change and adjust......and it cost him.
Time for a total housecleaning. Let the new coach and GM decide on QB for the future.
surprised they gave Rick the boot too. But glad they did!
Wonder who heads up the search?
Do they put a GM in first or go HC then GM. Do they promote from within?
If you want to try and do it right and start over, they both had to go. New blood in Eagan is necessary. I give the Wilfs credit for dropping a trusted employee like Rick Spielman because they loved him. But it had to be done.

Getting a GM to pick out a coach would seem logical to me. This will be very interesting for sure.
I'm surprised but not shocked that Rick is out.
He probably regrets not returning my calls now.

You would think, but I've seen it go the other way.
Well, that's a helluva way to start the day (for us West Coasters)...
...on one hand, I kinda want to thank 'em both. On the other, I want to help 'em pack.
I'm not surprised at all RS is gone. No way can the recent FA signings that haven't panned out be blamed all on Zim for not "coaching them up". The FA DL and DB rebuild headed by RS was a bust. Also, we lost a 4th round pick for a TE rarely used. Rick whiffs big as often or more than he hits HRs, IMO.
