After five seasons as coach of the Minnesota Vikings, Brad Childress has been recently fired by his team in the current National Football League season.
The Vikings made the tough decision to fire Childress due to the humiliating 3-7 win-loss record of the team in the 2010 NFL season.
In dismissing Childress, the Vikings also took notice of the wrong and ill-advised decisions made by the veteran NFL coach that lead to the team’s lackluster performance this year.
The NFL franchise hopes their move to fire Childress would fire up their players to play even harder for the team this year.
The NFL franchise also noted that despite the presence of NFL superstar quarterback Brett Favre, Childress failed to deliver the Vikings to a great year this 2010 NFL season.
Before losing his head coaching job, Childress went 40-37 with the Vikings, including 1-2 in the playoffs.
He was all in with Favre, riding his incredible 2009 season to the NFC championship game and then going down this year under the weight of his struggles to regain that rhythm.
Now that Childress is out as head coach of the Vikings, the Vikings management has designated defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier as the new head coach of team in the remainder of the current NFL season.
Frazier is very happy with his new role and vowed to do his best to bring back success to the Vikings.
Moreover, the Vikings hope their decision to fire Childress would bring positive outcome to the team.
