I remember him as a player.

 

[Blast From The Past]

Respect to the man and condolences to his loved ones. May you rest in peace coach,

 

[Miller]

So sad to hear! Loved him as a QB and coach! RIP. A heart attack at 60 is tough.

i just heard that Dallas announced that coach Wilson has passed away.

So sad, just turned 60 years old.
Prayers for his family.

 

[Redball Express]

Damn I didn’t realize Wade has health issues. Very sad. He was a good guy.

He was diabetic as I recall.

That complicates illnesses.

I have it but have it managed.

 

[FaSho]

Man, sad day.

RIP Wade!

RIP Wade Wilson... "Sticks".

Wilson replaced Tommy Kramer at the midpoint of the '87 season and guided the
Vikings to the NFC Championship. (losing to the Commanders)
Wilson and the Vikings defeated the 13-2 49ers at Candlestick Park in the
divisional round to get there.

In '88, Wilson led the league in passing.

Sad to hear. I wonder if it had anything to do with him being let go last year.

So you don't like a coach getting suspended for self medicating with a banned substance but when a player uses banned substances to self medicate, you support suspensions?

This is a thread about the passing of Coach Wilson. Go back to your room Abraham.

WOW on his birthday? R.I.P.

This is a thread about the passing of Coach Wilson. Go back to your room Abraham.

Gee, if you believed that why did you use it to slam Roger Goodell?

I'm being picky, but Wilson led the NFC in passer rating that season. Boomer Esiason led the league that year.

 

[DCreppinBoysfan]

Rest in Paradise, Wade. You was the man

 

[CowboyStar88]

Horrible news! Was a classy guy RIP coach

 

[HeavyBarrel]

Played 17-18 years or so in the NFL, not many can say that....Well done sir, RIP

I'm being picky, but Wilson led the NFC in passer rating that season. Boomer Esiason led the league that year.

I appreciate the correction. Thanks. Wilson led the league in completion percentage that year.
I believe Esiason was the NFL MVP that year too.
