If Flores leaves it's an instant excuse next year for Kevin O'Connell already.
Why wouldn’t he leave? He carried the Vikings this year. He was the reason for at least 6 of the wins
The problem with the comp pick is that he will be a FA not under contract so the wording in the rules leads to a no comp pick.
TBH the Vikings don't deserve his Services….TYVM BFLO Best…….
Flores accused his last team owner of racism and sued him. He showed them who he is. It’ll take a rare billionaire to invite him to lead their organization.
If Flores gets another HC job he better not cry racism and sue if he fails again.
I hate to see Flo go but that's how it goes. Suck it up and let's go Vikes
Wilfs need to step in. Tom Brady and then Raiders also want KOC, I say we trade KOC to the Raiders for there '27 1st and a 3rd or 4th this year. Then we can elevate BFLO to HC.
Falcons restructured Cousins contract and fired the HC and GM that drafted Penix… He's not going anywhere
The chances of Flo leaving are very high. I just hope he'll get a head coaching job somewhere rather than becoming the Cowboys DC. I don't want him there. If that happens, I'm sending hate mail directly to the Wilfs because they should be able to outbid Jerry Jones for a DC position. And why would Flo want to deal with turkey-breath Jones' drama in Dallas?
NO COMP PICK BC HIS CONTRACT HAS EXPIRED
Ravens would be very much better then the poor teams loosing coaches. Need to keep the picked dont get too cute and build depth. Cousins has almost recovered from his injury to a vet back up cheaper. But the Ravens and Bengals QBs can do more then win a division. the other Harbaugh needs more then a tv gig make him assistant head coach get lamar or id go for joe because of his LSU jet connection would open up video game numbers in yards..
If he leaves best of luck as long it's not the cowboys
Without Flores this team goes 4-13
Why the frick would ANYONE want to go to the raiders 😑 they suck donkey ballz.. Flores isn't going to leave unless he's got a chance to be there to coach a contender who cares about Tom Brady being part owner or whatever they suck and aren't winning shite
Thanks for the daily news you guys are always on top of it!!!!!!!!!!!!#16k
