Quietly, the Minnesota Vikings coaching staff is amid a gradual reformation. This has occurred in stages over the last calendar year, so the change may not rattle the individual worlds of onlookers. But the mutation is palpable.
One key person has remained intact, and that is – you guessed it — head coach Mike Zimmer. He is the maestro of the staff, joining the Vikings in 2014 while carrying the franchise to the league’s eighth-best record during the timeframe. Recently, the stigma surrounding his legacy is debatable because Minnesota is fresh off a fruitless 7-9 campaign. During Zimmer’s tenure, the Vikings alternate commendable years with average ones.
