The Minnesota Vikings family lost a member of its coaching fraternity today as former head coach Dennis Green passed away at age 67. According to his former agent Ray Anderson, the cause of death was cardiac arrest.
Green spent 13 years as the head coach for the Vikings, compiling a 97-62 record that included two separate trips to the NFC Championship Game. His best season came in 1998 when the team went 15-1 en route to being the number one seed in the NFC before falling to the Falcons in overtime 30-27 in the conference title game.
