Dang. That's huge.

 

[phildadon86]

Bring him in and give him a title. NOW! Asst OC. Something.

has to be resign or be fired. Norv seems like to much of a stand up guy to quit on his guys mid-season.

Wheels are falling off. I'm guessing the front office was displeased with the production but honestly the personnel stinks.

Vikings in a tailspin after two losses? Something is off big time. Tuner and Zimmer must have some serious issues behind the scenes.

 

[Eric_Boyer]

Zimmer called the offense soft the week before losing to the bears.

yeah, I imagine the OC and defensive minded head coach are not getting along.

I just saw this on NFL.com, I'm amazed. Talk about things becoming wide open in the NFC. The Vikes lose 2 and then their OC quits? That team is likely about to go into a serious tailspin.

NFC is just wanting the Cowboys to take it. It's being wrapped up with a bow.

Sure seems that way. And the AFC's in a similar state: it looks like New England and the 15 dwarves over there.

People can say what they want. I will always admire Norv Turner. He did a great job in Dallas.

He's good in my book for what he did w the Cowboys.

Big part of our Super Bowl wins in the 90's

Jimmy had the right guys Norv took care of the offense and Dave took care of the defense (then Butch after Dave left) and Jimmy went around and fine turned the team.

so a little over a week ago, a report comes out about all the bloody stuffed animals (re: fat cats get slaughtered stuff). and now norv reigns. maybe norv is a cat person?

SMH a lot of us kinda know and have followed Norv since he helped us win in the 90's. Something must be seriously going on in Minnesota if he quit on his buddy Zim...

Norv is a legend. An icon. They would not fire him.

Are Turner and Zimmer buddies? They never coached together before until joining the Vikings.

I thought or shall I use the word assumed they were or at least had a great respect for one another because of their coach back grounds...I hope I didn't assume to much.....lmao
