RIP former Cardinals', VIkings' HC Denny Green (1 Viewer)

Shocking news.  Living in Western, WI I heard him a lot when he was coaching the Vikings and I always felt he was a pretty darn good coach.  RIP Denny Green.

They were who we thought they were.

 
I am not a huge fan of minority hiring rules, but he was obviously ready to be a HC well before he was given an opportunity. Those Viking teams he brought back to relevancy certainly were fun to watch. The loss of that 15-1 team in OT was one of the bigger shocks I can remember and it's a shame he never quite made it to the big game but what a ride he gave them. You see so many re-tread coaches in the NFL and it's a shame he wasn't given more chances based on his career success.

A new sheriff just left town, and the town isn't any better without him to be sure. Crown him.

I always liked Denny.  He is defined by that one outburst but he put a lot of good teams on the field.

What's funny is I don't think anybody looks down on Denny for that outburst. He was simply showing his passion and wasn't really lashing out in an angry tirade. He was just pissed they lost the game.
