Friday

*I can't really believe that the Vikings are going to run a true West-Coast offense (or more accurate a Bill Walsh offense) with Daunte Culpepper. He doesn't make decisions at all-quickly. He does have an accurate arm, but has a great deep arm. I think Troy Williamson could be good in the West Coast offense, with a lot of quick hitters. Mewelde Moore could be quite good in a Roger Criag-type role. Travis Taylor and Nate Burleson are going possesion receivers. Koren Robinson can fit with his talent and running ability. I think Marcus Robinson might end up being the odd man out. The Vikings have no power-running game to speak off, and they have lineman that move fairly well. The Vikings will probably run a Walsh offense like the Eagles did last year, with more emphasis on the deep ball. articles on the Walsh Offense vs West Coast Offense.
*As far as D-Coord add the name-of Tampa Bay DB coach Mike Tomlin, along with Steve Spagnuolo and Sean McDermott. Darrell Bevell is probably the leader to be the O-Coord although Brad Childress will call the plays. Eric Bienemy is considered a coaching star in College, but he's best as a recruiter. But he would be a nice addition as a running back coach. Kevin Cosgrove-D.Coord of Nebraska has been mentioned to be LB coach. Brian Murphy-Wisconsin ST Coach and Christ Walsh reportedly might be Special Teams coach. The only name I don't like that I'm hearing is Pat Morris-The O-Line coach for Detroit
coming to coach the Vikings, I might look to the college game. Maybe even to Mitch Browning-The Gopher O-Coordinator. Chuck Knox' JR-might stay on as DB coach. I really don't see any Offense coaches coming back. I wouldn't be shocked to have Ron McBride-the Former Utah coach is maybe associated with the team in some role.
*Childress said Onterrio Smith has a clean-slate with him.
Probably light for blogging for the next few days, but will comment on any coaching news as I here it.
