Re: Assistant Coaches:
I am fine with this. Davidson did good work in 2012, but 2013 was a bad year for him. I just hope he can get Matt going again.dead_poet wrote: http://www.startribune.com/sports/vikin ... 79921.html

Re: Assistant Coaches:
This may have been covered in another thread already but there are numerous reports that Norv Turner's son, Scott, has participated in interviews the Vikings conducted with QBs at the Senior Bowl. He is expected to be the Vikings QB coach. That's a position he has never held, although he's a former QB so he has experience playing the position.

Don't pick a fight with an old Viking. If he is too old to fight, he'll just kill you.

Seeya Fred. That's good news. The Vikings need to start fresh across the board, although I would like them to retain Mike Priefer just to say #### you to Chris Kluwe.

I like Davidson staying on as the OL coach, but I don't like hearing this one at all. And I think Zimmer has done a heck of a job so far in putting together in what looks like a very good staff.
A successful coach needs a patient wife, loyal dog, and great quarterback - and not necessarily in that order.

Re: Assistant Coaches:
From the leaks and rumors, it doesn't sound like anyone is staying on for sure. Did Pagac's "interview" go badly, or did he decide that he'd rather have a certain job next year with someone else than an uncertain one with the Vikings?
