Listening to the Vikings call in show - Every caller wants Childress fired

[Emily_Haines]

You think he got that four year extension last year cause he sucked?
Is it his fault the QB throws 3 int and fumbles once?
Is it his fault that the #1, #2 and #3 receivers are hurt?
Is it his fault the defense line can not pressure the QB and get sacks?

Maybe the Vikings just got shitty players. Vince Lombardi couldn't get this team to win.

Regardless of what this team does, his mistakes alone warrant a firing.

I am listening to whine-line right now on KFAN, the callers do not recognize that this team has many many problems, not just the coach.

that might be true but the coach is the main problem. I noticed this last year but obviously when you are winning it doesnt matter. Childress is a bad coach, no way around it.

I like the caller that stated he would be a better coach and the radio host told him to shut up and he would not be a better coach.

Everyone thinks you just fire the coach and then the team magically gets better. Fans are stupid.

He must have fooled a lot of people last year to get that four year extension. The owner must hate money to fire this guy because he will owe him 16 million and then have to shell out a shit load for a new coach.

Favre got Childress that contract extension.

well childress wouldn't be the first person in the sports world to get a contract extension he didnt deserve. Farve and the team were playing out of their minds last year, childress had nothing to do with that especially farves producton. Im not sure why the gm thought that childress had any part of it but winning is intoxicating. That was farves team last year, it seemed pretty clear to me.

Nothing better than the Whine Line on KFAN after a loss. Brings out the idiots, usually more entertaining than the game. Vikings are not a good team so why are people surprised they are 3-6?

childress is definitely going to be staying in the soup line very soon.

[BIGDAY]

I'm a Vikings fan. How come all of my Packer fan friends want Minnesota to sign him to a lifetime contract??? The only people that love him are fans of opposing teams. Most predictable coach IMO. There is a reason why Andy Reed didn't let him call the plays in Philly IMO.

PS- AP ROCKS!

add mcnabb to that list if the report true. Just shocking but good for me.

4 years 78 mil, 40mil guaranteed, with incentives it could reach 88mil

No doubt. If I had that contract, I'd love to get fired and pull all those millions sitting on the couch.
