We're fairly certain Zygi Wilf cleared up everyone's lingering questions today at the Childress firing press conference. *Cough.* OK, maybe there are still a million things everyone wants to know as this team transitions from an immediate window of opportunity to a long-term plan for the first time since 2008.
Our question, for now: Do you believe interim head coach Leslie Frazier -- a candidate for other head jobs in the past, believed to be an up-and-comer in some circles, but a man who hasn't exactly done a bang-up job with the defense this year -- is a long-term answer as a head coach?
To be sure, we'll be in a better spot to answer that question after a six-game audition. But there are a lot of factors in play. Including:
*Does this team need a clean break and a fresh start from the current regime in 2011?
*In the push for a new stadium and continued relevance in this market, will the Vikings be tempted to go for a bigger name?
*How does a potential lockout in 2011 influence things? (For the record, we do not believe there will be a labor stoppage. But that's just us).
*And how much of this year's defensive problems do you pin on Frazier vs. the players and/or the environment created by Childress?
