I don't see it happening, and I agree that Henning would have done just as well with these 2 RB's and the O-line we have (gasp sorry). I want to see more out of Davidson before we crown him.

Agreed, and I miss Delhomme spreading out the D with 5 wide also. I was the minority and I always like Henning but sometimes you just need a break and it seemed that Henning did. He has came back strong as I expected.

How much of the improvement was Davidson and how much was because of revamping the OL, having quality backups and quality RBs? I think Dan Henning could have done a great job with this team. In fact I think just about anybody with college OC experience could have done a good job with this team!

its a combination of all of these. there is a reason why football is called the ultimate team sport because every single person involved with the team plays a major role in its success. Im thinking davidson had something to say about drafting jeff otah. main point im trying to put across is henning didnt do it with his team and now davidson is doing it with his team so you can speculate about anything that is beyond our knowledge but i think davidson has been an amazing coordinator and he should be given the praise he deserves

Our defense sucked again this year, (not the first time).

We all were calling for major changes in the coaching staff.

Several members of the defensive coaching staff have left including the number one scapgoat, our DC.

We're all upset about this??????

Who is upset at the loss of those defensive coaches? I think you are thoroughly confused.

No one called for Davidson, as a matter of fact, show me a post where someone said they wanted and quote it "major coaching changes".

We were more than specific about it, and most people just wanted Fox and or Turd.(with most be just fine with Turd gone)

So what are you talking about?

Didn't know if this had been posted but I heard Mortensen on ESPN yesterday say not to be surprised if the Chiefs go after Jeff Davidson. I think they have probably already found their main target in Todd Haley but things change quickly.

I would honestly consider firing Fox just to keep Davidson and make him the HC if that is what it would take to keep the guy on our staff. The first time since Fox has been here that we have had a potent offense...Not willing to give that up without a fight.

...well I'll know Fox is gone when the 'smoke route' is gone....he still has his ass on davidsons neck...

The NFL is a league in which only ONE team comes out a winner while 31 others are "losers". Same goes for the fan base! Maybe the Dolphins/Falcons fan base can smile some, but still, you know they're bitter about their Playoff losses.

It's all about winning, Chan Fan. But just you wait, come combine time, FA time, and the draft, things will perk up around here and we'll start boasting about how better we'll be and how much ass we will kick. But come on, we just lost a lot of coaches, the star on D wants out, and we haven't signed jack. Of course there is a dark cloud over us currently. It'll go away though.

Anytime your team loses in the playoffs there will be plenty of bitching no matter what team you root for. But it does surprise me that this team had a 12-4 season and yet it seems like the majority of fans want him fired. Not that he's absolved of any criticism, but firing him right now seems way too knee-jerk.

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      Sweet jebus this is idiotic Yes, overall team success in this league, you need a good QB, but beyond just that painfully obvious fact, let's get into the rest of the stupid in there......... First things first, you say.. "if we need a good QB for him to have success, then why are you drafting that player with the #1 pick" Show me one time I've ever said we would need a good QB for T-Mac himself to have success... you can't, because I never have.  I think you're referring to the "he's bad enough that we then have a Top 5 pick to target a QB" part of my post, which is very clearly talking about said QB, not T-Mac.  The other way to interpret that is just overall team success, which again, wouldn't be anything about T-Mac or his ability to impact the offense or overall team wins and losses. I'm quite sure I could do this with a number of teams over the years, but I don't want to spend the time to do multiple, so I'll keep it to just the 2023 Vikings right now since you wanted to use Jefferson as your example....... The Vikings went 3-6 after Cousins went down last year.  And two of those wins came before Jefferson even came back from his own injury, they were 1-4 in the final 5 weeks after Jefferson came back. In those 5 games, Jefferson had 31 catches, 503 yards, and 2 TDs Having the WR you specifically called out didn't help them go better than 1-4 with a bad QB, even though he still put up a great stat line for that time period either.  It also didn't make that QB good enough to where they then went out and brought in TWO new QB's this year to replace Doubs and Mullens who started down the stretch for them last year. And that's with 4th year Jefferson, not a rookie that T-Mac would be If you expect a WR getting drafted #1 overall to be the player to turn a franchise as bad as we are around in 1 season, make whatever QB we're able to put in there be successful, and lead us to a solid season, then you are literally insane. We are AWFUL, we have a few young guys who could turn into great players, but we are so far from being a good team, that there isn't any player we could draft next year that is going to change that in 2025.

      So you are just going by what these analysts are saying. So if come draft time they say Ward/Sanders is worth pick 1 you should be good. The future draft QB class is always going to be projected as the next great thing until these young players start playing the game and scouts can see some flaws. Think of all of the high school phenoms that didn’t look as good in college.  If Manning does turn out to be the next great prospect only one team gets to draft him. Odds are someone else could get the top pick, especially if go all in on building a supporting roster. I’m never going to be a just wait another year guy, because there are so many variables. If our staff loves Ward/Sanders then we should just draft them with our pick. It’s as simple as that. I also might go with Hunter over TMac as WR1 in this class.  The roster has the OL to help a young QB, young weapons in Coker, XL, and JT to grow with a QB, and a RB who can catch in Brooks as a safety net for a young QB. Sign a vet WR, extend BC and our offense would be set outside of depth. Let our young offensive core go through their growing pains while we iron out the defense. It’s definitely a path forward.
