Reading Post on Vikings Head Coach


     I read this article on profootballtalk.com about the Vikings head coach Brad Childress.  The article was written by Mike Florio.  The article emphasized that Brad Childress is not fit for the job of a head coach in the national football league.  When playing the Tennessee Titans and down by 13 points, Childress decided to punt on 4th down with no timeouts.  He thought that the Vikings could get the ball back based on the way their defense was playing.  It was very apparent that Childress had used bad judgement when Tennessee took a knee three times and the game was over.  I know that coaches have made many bad coaching calls in the history of football, but this has to be one of the worst.  It is simply mathematical.  The other team can run two minutes off the clock by kneeling when you have no timeouts.  I am not a Vikings fan but I think they should get a new coach.
