Decided to throw together a compilation of plays. These are (what I consider to be) the best plays of the Mike Zimmer coaching era (2014-2019). Basically the best of the last five years. I tried to sort them going from least greatest to greatest (any guess to which is #1?)
If I left a play out, I'm sure the comments will let me know. There were 80+ games to pick from I'm not perfect.
Follow me on twitter for more highlights, as well as sneak peeks of my upcoming videos!

@Ant P Maybe you're still crying about the pass interference in that NFC championship game. That's what you get for the helmet stomp on Jared Goff earlier that game and the bounty scandal in the 2009 championship game. Karma is a bitch huh?

I can’t imagine! I was watching. What an emotional roller coaster that whole game was! My wife and I were exactly like everyone else in the Minneapolis Miracle reaction videos. In the dumps but still watching until the very end. Then jumping up & down screaming for 10 minutes straight! Hahahaa. Then rewatching it EVERYDAY for the next 30 days! Lol. That moment never gets old!! And technically, it was the 3rd of 3 Minneapolis Miracles...Kramer to Rashad, Favre to Lewis, then Keenum to Diggs. Regardless, it WAS a miracle!

@YouTube.Algorithmic.F___kery 5 лет назад

Tanner Larson It just demonstrates the continual carousel of QBs the Vikings have had because they can’t find a franchise QB that can play several years. Your year breakdown of QBs also coincides with a new offensive coordinator the Vikings have had practically every season. 4 different QBs, 4 different offensive coordinators. It would be nice to have some stability.

@addernoir1483 5 лет назад

That's a whooooooooole lotta Thielen highlights. Two of them when he wasn't even receiver! Yeah, he's ok i guess...

@TheEsotericism1 5 лет назад

Love the inclusion of Kai Forbath’s field goal :) I remember being SO nervous before that kick with that insane game and the Vikings’ kicking curse, much less the fact that it was freaking Forbath booting it. We never should have let him go. So what he missed some extra points, he clearly had ice in his veins when the kicks mattered

@HDreamer 5 лет назад

Without that Kick, Diggs catch never happens. (obviously)

@jonskywalker2899 5 лет назад

He still made it. That’s all I ever ask for.

@TallChief42 4 года назад

Yeah that was a mistake. He missed an extra point in preseason and that led to them cutting him for that horrible rookie kicker. Surprised He has n't played since but now that I think of it, he may have kicked half a season for the Dallas. On the flip side, the Vikings got Dan baile y and once back to 100%, he's been lethal.

@wick7179 5 лет назад

john roos Yeah the money was definitely a lot, I just don’t like seeing people trash the guy for accepting a good deal. He did what was best for his family and when you actually take a look at his stats, he was pretty good last season overall. The defense took a step back, however. The line was also just wretched, which resulted in him having no run game to lean on. Should be better this year.

@smittywerbenjaggerman-jens5024 4 года назад

Coaches are right... year 2 is always the year where Players get comfortable and play better. Now our O line looks solid, run game will excel, staff is dope and if the D stays on top 5 our chances are great

@Custodianx 4 года назад

I have always loved and will forever love the vikings. That being said I do not automatically like a player because they are a Viking. Regardless of this there is almost no key starters and minimal players that I have actually disliked during the Zimmer/Spielman era. The locker room is always mostly humble and just proud of what is done and I don't have to worry about seeing constant tweets about how great they are or how they were snubbed. You never know what you are gonna get with the Vikings, but you don't really have to worry about a mad losing season either. To me its amazing fun and I am happy the color purple and Randy Moss were my favorite things as a child living nowhere near Minnesota.

@DarkLord-7 Год назад

While the firing of Mike Zimmer was necessary, I don't think we can deny that he did have a pretty good run with the Vikings compared to the two coaches before him, Brad Childress and Leslie Frasier. He wasn't a bad coach, at least not at first. But as time went on, his play-calling became more and more cautious offensively, and that caution is often what costed games. Well, that and the offensive line wasn't worth much in protecting the QB. I wish Zimmer the best in his future in the NFL and I'm glad we now have what appears to be a very good head coach, Kevin O'Connell.
