“Did he care about it?”

“I don’t know ask him”

Nex Mortuus

Make that announcement that vikings fired Zimmer

Cavedog

Absolute disrespect to one of the best players on the team. No honorable coach would do something so childish and pathetic. This man is not a leader and he should not be a coach.

    George Bishop

    @MBG DiiaMoND Pretty sure the Rams beat your favorite team dawg. Did you watch that? 😂

    MBG DiiaMoND

    @George Bishop oh no, a loss to a playoff caliber team😫what ever will I do

Mario Nordstrom

He has been a great coach for the Vikings. But now it’s time for something new. Fresh start. Thanks for everything Zim, I appreciate it. Vikings legend 💜

    Sampson Belleh

    What’s makes him a legend?

    Always Great USA

    Great ??? He was good at his best a few years ago, but NEVER was he great !
    Madden, Lombardi, Grant, Shula, Landry were GREAT COACHES !
    Zim is clearly NOT in that CLASS !

Goob Jug

dude has way too much pride for someone who has accomplished so little at his position. sad to see it end in such a pitiful way.

    jaarc14

    Perfect comment

    @George Bishop hi, he’s like 25% vs winning teams. Not acceptable

    Fitness. . Move, You'll Get it

    @George Bishop his defense is ranked 31st in the NFL, and he’s got to be the worst in game coach by far. So many questionable decisions every year, especially with timeouts.

    Starts playing scared defense when we get ahead (see 2nd Steelers game two weeks ago).

    George Bishop

    @Fitness. . Move, You’ll Get it See the problem is that you are talking about this year. I took the entire 8 years into account like a normal person who was describing the transition from the staff prior to him to his staff. Sorry you missed the point.

    Let me sleep in peace

    @George Bishop thing is that the last year is the most relevant. He may have been decent at one point but right now he’s just terrible. Imagine “caring” about wins when you can’t make up a good play to save your life.

Usman Ghani

Certainly wish him well. When he first became a head coach – he turned around the miserable defense at that time into a top outfit. He wasn’t served well by two things: rick spielman and zimmer’s own stubborn attitude. He will be a terrific DC somewhere in the NFL.

    We need Jon Gruden to coach

BloodySoup74

Can we have Dean Evason as the coach for the Vikes? He knows how to relate to the players. He gets the most out of them.

    He’d be benching guys that were concerned about stats over wins. Look what he did with Parise.

    BloodySoup74

    @YouTube Algorithmic Safety Board Yes Parise had that bone headed play. Totally agree there needs to be team guys. I think JJ knows he’s the best on the field and wants that ball which I totally understand but yes superbowl should be the main objective and not stats. I want them to win as badly as anyone and they need to give it to the guys who are the playmakers. And then it comes down to play calling and HC.

    YouTube Algorithmic Safety Board

    @BloodySoup74 I’ve been waiting for a Super Bowl since Pasadena 1977. I was a kid at the time, but I thought they’d be back the next year. Boy was I wrong. I’ve had to endure 5 NFC Championship Game losses since then.

James Morrison

I agree it’s time for a fresh start we need a new coach

Justin Johnson

I think new offensive coordinator is first priority.

Eric W

Mike did a lot to turn this organization around but he seems to have given up. Not letting your young star WR get a record cause you’re looking for a W in a meaningless game? Sorry, Mike is way off the mark as a leader.

WeDontHaveToBreed88

-Would you like to see Zimmer coach more next year?
-No.
-Why not?
– I’ve seen him “coach” every Sunday for the past 8 years.

    Gone fishing

    Wahaha!

    WeDontHaveToBreed88

    @Jim Pats Lose After flopping to the eagles he should’ve been fired. That saints game he got lucky, one player fudged a tackle on the last play which had nothing to do with coaching but dumb luck and without it he would’ve been fired sooner most likely

    zan Lehman

    Nailed it!

    john200715

    I don’t think any coach will ever be able to bring the Vikings a championship. As a Minnesota Sports fan, I have become about as pessimistic as you possibly can. On a positive note, we will always know when the season ends, right on schedule every year.

    WeDontHaveToBreed88

    @john200715I feel pretty much the same. We get great players and they waste their years on this team. I felt the worst for moss just to go once with the pats and still not getting a ring

Collin Martz

I don’t care about records. I care about wins. That is the most heartless thing you can say when you are playing for nothing today when you know you can at least do something for a guy that has put his full heart into this team and making sure his best effort gets put forward every week. This only adds the list as to why it is time for Zimmer to go. Team morale does more than a guy thinks so take care of your guys.

    Guy Black

    Kendricks and O’Neill already adding their 2 cents about the culture under Zimmer

    Guy Black

    Doesn’t care about records: plays starters in a meaningless game to add to his wins

    Daniel Browne

    @Chris Handsome The game was won already, get him the record

    Anthony

    And thinking like that is why this team is and continues to be hot garbage. Justin Jefferson, dancing in the end zone like an idiot after a meaningless score while down by double digits. Again Jefferson, celebrating a first down with the clock running while down by double digits.

MrRamenMonster

The game has passed him by. Poor decision making over the last few seasons has made that clear. The Vikings need a younger, offensive-minded coach who is willing to adapt. Offense wins championships in today’s NFL.

Chris Ramos

I don’t care about coaches, I care about wins.

shaun spratley

I will always have love for Zim. He’s been one of the best coaches of my life time. I wish him the best in his health and future but it’s definitely time to move on. I just hope the new coach keeps Patterson around.

    Roy Lars

    The Wolf’s got the development deal that they wanted … They will soon move on and reap Huge rewards

    shaun spratley

    I said it b4 the signing I didn’t want Kirk, and after I said it would end up a Hershel Walker level mistake. Lol

    Roy Lars

    … if Adrian could’ve kept his yap shut instead of talking about yardage beyond truly GREAT running backs like Sanders
    … focused On acting like a God Fearing Christian instead of just throwing words …
    The future was looking bright but hey , what do I know … Along w half the state of Minnesota !!?
    Bleeding Purple is a lot like being a Lions Fan …
    .

    Roy Lars

    … I was wrong about Bridgewater , He has Heart and Character and Zim saw it and knew it !!!
    I think PC B’s almost cost Zimmer the top of His head , no Doubt He approached His job in a way We can’t understand … His Family paid some heavy prices , I’m sure

    Roy Lars

    … I am surprised about Speilman

Jason Baum

What he did to Justin Jefferson was terrible. I’m glad he’s gone along with Spielman. He’s supposed to be this great defensive mind and his defense finished dead last in the NFL

Let me sleep in peace

“I don’t care about records. I care about wins.”

Guys he cared about wins so much that he gave the Lions their first one. Great job leading us to the playoffs. Because winning that last game was really mattered when we weren’t even in the playoff run anymore. Goes to show how much Zimmer cared about his players. Instead of letting Jefferson break the record he pulled him out for a meaningless win. Just let the guy attempt to break the record so some of us can be happy for him.

    Peace frog

    He lost my support after pulling that cramp on Jefferson.

Peace frog

Screwing Jefferson like that is all I’ll remember about Zimmer 10 years from now. Nice legacy coach.

PO78

Zimmer has purposely prevented Adrian Peterson his record when he only needed 8 yards and Jefferson only needing 17 yards. He is absolutely despicable

zach rizzo

Glad this guy is gone. Kevin O’Connell is a breath of fresh air and rejuvenation the franchise desperately needs
