So, Are We All Rams Fans Sunday Evening?
I’m cheering for Coach O’Connell, gottta cheer for our new coach. I am like Rip, I don’t want one more 0 SB win team to get one before we do. Yeah, I admit it I’m an ass but until we have one that’s how I feel.

Vikes better sign that contract with KOC first thing Monday if he pulls a Josh McDaniels, heads will roll. Then Jim Harbaugh gets a phone call, lol!Yeah and Harbaugh will tell the Wilfs to suck it
Again, I dont think the Wilfs liked Harbaugh and he was a pitch from KAM. When you read that questions in the afternoon session werent as engaging you can assume the Wilfs realized they were right. Dont think Harbaugh would be contactedThat wasn't the case according to Cris Carter, who said the Wilfs wanted Harbaugh but ultimately gave Kwesi the choice in selecting his own head coach
Really not sure how Carter would know how the Wilf's felt about Harbaugh. Unless it was Carter's fall guy on the inside that passed along the information.Do you not think he is still connected to the organization or has contacts there? He reported that Harbaugh was "what the Wilf's wanted" the day prior to Harbaugh flying in to interview. Reported it on live television. So if O'Connell ends up inexplicably becoming the coach of the Rams, there's no way Harbaugh would consider taking the Vikings job now

I don't think anybody outside of the Wilf's themselves knew how they felt about Harbaugh. Carter may still be connected to the organization in some way but most likely not as close as what he wants people to believe. And to report something like that on live television, maybe it was to put the spotlight on him for a brief moment.

I guess that makes no sense to me. It may be accurate but Harbaugh wasn't mentioned until Kwesi got the job. He got the job and all of a sudden Harbaugh's name was being mentioned. Then the got an interview and in the afternoon session it was reported that things/feelings started to drift apart. I read that from multiple sources, but I suppose it still could be wrong.
I Always root for the underdog.
ALWAYS
Unless its a division rival, or the Saints

Harbaugh is old f'ing news...I'm all about the windshield, not the rear view mirror.
Doh!
@"Hawkvike25" said:Even if McVay retires (extremely unlikely), KOC will still take the Vikings job. McDaniels did what he did because he's an asshole with a history of making poor decisions...and he's paid for it.

Kind of like our greatest running back of all time now getting arrested for allegedly getting physical with his wife. Ugh, dude sure seems like a POS
Nope. I can't wait till it's over and the coaching staff can be official. LFG! Looking forward to the halftime show though.
@"Vikergirl" said: Nope. I can't wait till it's over and the coaching staff can be official. LFG! Looking forward to the halftime show though.I do like what Dungy said about a moratorium on hiring a new coach until 10 days post Super Bowl. Give the coaches a chance to interview without distracting from the games. His point was for minority coaches, but it works for all of them. I always thought the distractions were unfair to the teams playing.
@"Riphawkins" said:That can work both ways. How can the league expect a team looking for a new coach to wait for 10 days after the Super Bowl to interview and hire a coach from one of those teams. That puts a team considerably behind schedule to fill out a coaching staff, get ready for pro days, free agency, and behind in preparation for the draft. That is a long time and any team looking for a new coach may just say screw it, we are going to go with a coach we can hire right now instead of waiting another 2 weeks to interview and hire.@"Vikergirl" said: Nope.

@"Greylock" said:I think Dungy was saying no coaches can be hired until after the Super Bowl. So, it wouldn’t matter if the coach you want is in it or not. I think the same thing should be done with college. Look how messed up bowl games were this season with coaches being fired and hired before bowl games.@"Riphawkins" said:That can work both ways.

10 days post Superbowl is ridiculous. But that's Dungy for ya.
