The writing was on the wall after the Packer blowout. Had to figure there was no way he was keeping his job. Only problem is Wilf waited much too long. The Vikings season is over

Cowher or Gruden to Minnesota?

I know it's dysfunctional but actually a talented team if the right coach can get them to work together

Is this now the #1 most attractive job? Next year they obviously won't have to deal with Favre. They have AP. Rice will be back next year. And they have a defense that has underachieved this year.

And I don't know if they do it, but they have to bench Favre and see what they have in Tavaris.

I think they have plenty with Tavaris and this Favre thing has hurt him the most.

Favre has played worse this year than any of Tavaris's years.

In name only. Pretty damn sure Brett Favre is now in charge of this mess.

I'm looking forward to Childress coming out and just DESTROYING Favre in the media.

high draft pick. andrew luck. new coach, improve the OL, and get 1 playmaker in the secondary.

this team is close. I like it more than Dallas because of Jerry. If San Diego opens up, i like them more.

While I don't think Childress was a particularly good coach, this Favre deal just killed him and made him into a joke. Beloved sports icon comes in and essentially takes over program (ie: altering play calls at will, according to reports that have been out there since last year) because he knows he'll win any PR battle. Everyone was able to smile publicly last year when they were winning, but this year, with Favre battling injuries, ineffectiveness and off-field controversy...but staying in because of THE STREAK, the dude was doomed.

They won't have high enough of a pick to get Luck.

Hard to pick between Dallas and Minnesota. I think Dallas' collapse had more to do with coaching than Minnesota did.
