Vikings hire Mike Zimmer as HC
|
Quote:Yes, but the Jags and Texans have only been around for a few years. Keep in mind that several teams haven't been to a Super Bowl since Jacksonville played it's inaugural season. Well, I see your point and agree to an extent, but that's not necessarily an accurate gauge, either. The NFL existed before the Super Bowl, and teams were competing/not competing for championships prior to the 1966 season. If you factor THAT into the equation, Detroit and Cleveland have been to championship games-the then equivalent to the Super Bowl. If you factor in only Super Bowl appearances but not from the start of Super Bowls (in other words, if you add in years pre Super Bowl), that pushes the average up. The thing is, there have been teams that have least competed in Super Bowls prior to their 19th year of existence. Even Carolina-who came into the league the same year we did-has been to a Super Bowl (in one of the lowest points of my life as a Jaguars fan). Even using your standard of measure, the "lowly" Bengals made it to a Super Bowl before we did...and they are ahead of our pace. Bottom line is we have no room to talk about anyone being lowly right now...and we need some Super Bowl trophies badly. Worst to 1st. Curse Reversed!

I think the Vikings won the Coaches Hiring Bowl with the addition of Mike Zimmer and Nov Turner. The problem is for them to find a QB, and with their selection at #8, I'm not sure what they can do for the position.

If the Jags could sucker Minnesota into a sweetheart trade, including future first rounders, I'd do it.
I agree with Shangster. Thus far, I like what Minnesota has done more than any other team with a HC opening. Norv will definitely find creative ways to use Cordarrelle (assuming they find a respectable QB). Zimmer is overdue for a shot at a HC position to show what he can do. They could get a bounce defensively if Sharif comes back 100% from his injury.
Only a chump boos the home team!

They could get a bounce defensively if Sharif comes back 100% from his injury. I like Turner as a coach, but when have you ever seen a Norv Turner offense and thought to yourself "Wow! What a creative and innovative offense they have come up with!"? Not saying that he isn't a good coach, but his teams are pretty much straightforward from my perspective.
I'm trying to make myself more informed and less opinionated.
Stop saying whatever stupid thing you're talking about and pay attention to all the interesting things I have to say! |
