Ragnar's Rising. A Minnesota Vikings NFL Head Coach 09 Dynasty 
Posted on January 14, 2017 at 10:52 AM.
This is my first dynasty so bear with me for awhile while I get the hang of things.

I am using Goody's sliders.
15 minute quarters.
A semi updated roster. I can't remember who made it, but it is current in that Teddy Bridgewater is a rookie.

Coach's name is my own, Chris Condon
Personality:Guru
Playbooks: Offense:Slightly modified Army run.
Defense: Modified Zimmer 4-3
Skills: PHY:QB/OL LVL 3
INT:QB/RB/WR LVL 4:TE LVL 3:OL LVL 2

HIRING:
*Coach Condon, having no NFL coaching experience let alone any college coaching experience, how do you believe that you are the right man for the job?

+Well I would believe that, that question would come as more of a question for the owner than myself but I'll try and keep our conversations in the hiring process simplified. The owner, Mr. Wilf, believes that the team became too exotic. Why build a passing game around a great RB in Adrian who can't catch? If he is your center stone, why isn't the offense conforming to him. Ziggy has been a great supporter of the gophers football team I volunteer as a scout for. He had noticed that many of the players I had coached at the Lester Prairie/Holy Trinity highschool football team had gone to the gophers and had very well success. So I do believe he wants a hometown coach for a good old fashioned team.

*What kind of offense and defense will you bring to this team?

+The same gameplans I have coached for years. I bring an old school offense filled with split backs and near formations and some full house. No shotgun. Everything is under center. As for defense, I like to run a base cover 2 4-3, with a rarely seen today 4-4 on running downs. Both schemes have a variety of man coverage and blitzes in them to keep defenders guessing. As with the 4-4, you always have 8 in the box, but you could bring any number of people in to blitz. The confusion is never ending. I never understood why it isn't used a lot any more. One more question please.

*How do you expect to succeed in a old school power running game when everything about this game has evolved into a passing league?

+That's exactly why it will work. Nobody has seen these formations in a long time in this league and the players maybe haven't since high school. Confusion wins a lot of games. Just ask the 85 bears and their 46 or Bill Walsh about his quick slinging QBs. Trends come and go. I'm ready for the running revaluation again. It's just a matter of time before we will need to change our game. But hopefully that won't come before a couple of rings. Now if you will excuse me, my wife has a pot roast in the oven that I can smell from here. Thank you.
