[@tucegs522]

@@3dkennels247the offense and defense are both pretty self explanatory. offensively, we’ll run all over you until you bring more bodies into the box and allow AJ and Devonta one on one opportunities. of course Jalen has been excellent operating the O. defensively, we rush 4, our elite pass rushers generate pressure, and the equally elite back end holds down coverage. maybe i’m missing something but i don’t see anything complex enough to constitute a film study

[@kurtwagner350]

That was because they had all pros at every position group, defensive personnel don’t get a whole lot better then that. When the Vikings lost some of those guys and Zimmer was asked to coach up mediocre players and rookies they had a bottom 3 defense just like this year

[@hybridce99]

few years ago? Buddy, that was 2017 ish. it's been awhile since we've had a good D let alone a great one.

[@kurtwagner350]

@@hybridce99 2019 was probably the last time they had a good defense and 2017 was definitely the last time they had a great one, but I was more the talent on the roster then Zimmers coaching. Remember in 2017 they had prime Everson Griffen, Linval Joeseph, Anthony Barr (all were named pro bowlers and a couple arguably deserved All Pro honors) and Harrison Smith playing at his best (named an all pro that year) as well as the best version of Xavier Rhodes who was an undisputed top 3 cornerback that year and arguably the very best (also named an all pro) and that’s all without mentioning the very meaningful contributions of a young Danielle Hunter and Eric Kendrick’s as well as veterans like Brian Robison and Terence Newman. This was a historically good defense but practically any decent coach could’ve made them a top 3 defense and when these players regressed or left the team Zimmer couldn’t do anything to help them play better than the sum of their parts, Zimmers defenses were as good as the talent on them and nothing more, he added nothing as a coach defensively and he actively sabotaged the offensive side of the ball

[@hybridce99]

@@kurtwagner350 Hmm, I agree and disagree. I do think Zimmer was a very good defensive coach and deserves a lot of credit for the defenses they out together from 14 thru 18. But...and this was pointed out by realistic Randy and I agree...it seems like ever since the 2nd half of the miracle game, when Payton/Brees figured out how to beat Zim's playcalling, he never, ever adjusted. It's like he stuck with his "system" and tendencies, which ultimately was his undoing. Can't last in this business without constantly evolving, and Zim kinda got figured out. I don't think that negates his resume up until that point, however.

[@kurtwagner350]

@@hybridce99 I will say the there were some impressive defensive games in 14, 15 and 16 and you may be on to something with him not adapting but I still think overall looking at his resume I can’t really say that he was really an elevating factor in many if maybe any of defenses he has coached and for any praise you can give him for being creative, out scheming or supposedly aiding in the development of players you can find just as many if not more counter examples and even if I just say ok he’s a very good defensive coach there’s still the element that as a head coach he has at best been a detriment to the offensive side of the ball and at worst he has a actively stifled his offenses with his narrow view and philosophy. He also just as a leader generally seems to have a very tough love sentiment as a coach which isn’t necessarily bad but some of the stories that came out of that Vikings locker room specifically were terrible and most damning in my mind was Terrence Newman’s comments who was a “Zimmer guy” who had a long-standing relationship with him and was really only with the Vikings during fairly successful years and yet he still said something along the lines of “he led the locker room with fear and intimidation and was always in a bad mood” and he often let his teams get too high or too low heading into big games and coached multiple games where his players actively quit trying wether that was because Zimmer didn’t inspire hope that they could win or his players gave up on him in defiance it’s undeniable. Aside from Deion Sanders I don’t really think anyone he’s coached particularly likes him and many players had a a real problem with him, from some of the comments from former players I wouldn’t be surprised if they played “ding dong the witch is dead” in the TCO performance center halls after he was fired. So as a whole I really don’t think he deserves a great deal of credit and I think he’s just not a coach you would want.

One of the few instances this season where scheme on defense doesn't match the personnel. I don't know what the defense looks on film when they see WRs match up vs Z Smith or even the MLBs in Hicks/Kendricks. Or have seen receivers constantly scheme zone buster looks to consistent success when the back 7 are running quarters variants. Worse part the defense also has the same odd Fangio coaching tree trait of giving up big runs (See Staley, Hurtt/Desai, Joe Barry, Donatell). Doesn't bode well for January matchups potentially vs the Niners or the Cowboys if they slide to their side of the bracket. And especially the Eagles waiting for the potential NFC champ showdown.

Love your enthusiasm! Would love to get your take on why the Eagles are so successful (top 3) in what seems like a Fangio system. I'm guessing that the Eagles are more diverse scheme-wise, more adaptable in terms of pre-snap checks, and only took one off-season to acquire great players (basically the opposite of the three points you laid out in terms of the Vikings defense). A BIG thing that I noted in my article just now is that the Eagles cover men whereas the Vikings cover grass. That's a HUGE difference, worthy of bold and italics in my article, especially in the age of match-zone coverage. Aside from the Vikings and the Eagles, what do you think of the other Fangio teams: Rams, Chargers, Broncos, Browns, Seahawks, Packers, etc.?

Would love to hear your opinions on Andrew Booth and Lewis Cine being injured and look at their small amount of film to see if they are the answer to this issue or not, great video!

[@DHVF28]

If they drop Danielle or Z into coverage one more time I’m going to fly to Minnesota and launch Ed Donatell out of the giant Viking horn at the stadium.

[@TheRealChriesto]

This video aged so well, just to immediately completely backfire

[@chesscomsupport8689]

I mean, the comeback doesn't change that fact that the defense did not have a good game.

[@TheRealChriesto]

@@chesscomsupport8689 they had about the greatest second half you could have

[@checkmarkdatter1785]

@@TheRealChriesto & about the worst first half. So all in all they had a mediocre performance against a bad team

[@TheRealChriesto]

@@checkmarkdatter1785 hence my first comment

[@checkmarkdatter1785]

@@TheRealChriesto Except this video didn’t backfire at all, it’s still completely accurate

[@dddawdaddawda3104]

Whose ready for Matt Ryan to look like his MVP form today?

[@robertcolacino7310]

Super Bowl form did you hear ?

[@Xtriley90]

hey. I'm new to reading coverages. At 8:07, how can you see pre-snap that it's cover 6 and not just plain cover four? thanks

[@AWheel9]

Ever think about doing any intro to coverage type videos or at least recommendations on people to go to for that? Just starting to play football as a safety and love the detail you get to.

[@deecorleone8461]

Lmao wow and now they getting whooped by the colts 😭😭😭

[@combatengage8729]

Holy shit the timing of this

[@robertcolacino7310]

Yes nice to make the biggest comeback in NFL HISTORY

[@Superkuh2]

Except for Harrison Smith. Harrison Smith is the duct tape keeping the vikings D from falling apart completely.

[@thurantpnh6687]

Excited for the podcast this week. I watched the game this weekend, and have no idea how what happened, happened

[@SparkyFinch]

As a vikings fan I had to wait 7 months to watch this lmao

[@anthonywilmot4994]

This was the perfect video to be posted today. Commenting this right after the Vikings came back from down 33-0 at halftime.

[@EB-pu9hp]

Comment! Love the channel, Bret. Happy holidays!

[@dabbingtoast7743]

This coming out hours before the Colts dog walked the Vikings for two quarters only for the Vikings to pull off the most mind baffling comeback in NFL history is the epitome of the Kollmann Curse. Bravo sir, you should just ride into the sunset now because there will never be a greater Kollmann Curse moment than this one.

[@BigBurg97]

I'd love something on the Eagles. Whether it's the offense or Defense or if Hurts deserves MVP

[@1assassyn]

cowboys fan eh?

[@sirajel-bey]

I haven’t finished the video yet but Lewis Cine and Andrew Booth’s injuries really hurt them. A lot of their best defenders are 30+ too. They might need depth at WR with Thielen getting older as well…

[@krishnamadhekar1046]

Cine and Booth aren’t starting for us, Booth’s injury hurt cause of depth, but other than that they haven’t really impacted us a whole lot

[@hayesturner4250]

Love the videos and schematic breakdowns. Keep up the good work Brett!

[@pintail102]

Have you ever seen a team/player act on one of your videos and correct or adapt a suggested strategy?

[@colinbunn6066]

Brett, this reverse Kollmann curse better not work. We’re trying to get the Lions to the playoffs!

[@botygray]

Who’s here after that 33-0 comeback 😂

[@lordpigg4069]

Great content 👌 love the videos man

[@tomkoch3495]

Merry Christmas

[@gordonjackson4040]

Here after the Sadder Day 33-0 comeback. Vikes got some key stops in the 2nd half and a good forced fumble turnover, but today’s game highlighted a lot of your issues in the first two quarters, granted there were crazy turnovers by the Vikes early on. And this was against the Colts who were 4-8-1 going into it.

[@charlessssssc]

brett is far and away the best film review youtuber, please never stop

[@MrFormulaOne2011]

Always like your content Brett. Keep up the great work!

[@Minoltalphafan]

They allow yards, but hold teams or make stops when it matters most. Turnovers have been key, too.

[@AugustDwight]

I hardly ever even watch football anymore, but I still love these videos for the depth of insight and the understandable explanations. Keep it up!
