Vikings Expected To Name Alan Williams As Defensive Coordinator

After the Vikings fired defensive coordinator Alan Pagac last week, coaches such as former Buccaneers head coach Raheem Morris, Dolphins interim coach Todd Bowles and former Jaguars interim coach Mel Tucker had their names linked to Minnesota as the replacement for Leslie Frazier’s team. Instead, somebody employed last season by Indianapolis finally got some good news. That’s because the St. Paul Pioneer Press is reporting that former Colts defensive backs coach Alan Williams has been offered the Vikings job and is expected to accept. Though the Colts were a mediocre 15th in pass defense this year, Williams and Frazier worked together in Indianapolis from 2005-06 before Frazier won the Minnesota defensive coordinator job. Williams had been in Indianapolis the past 10 years and, before this season, had much success.

this is just a 'comfort' hire for frazier since he's familiar with williams .............. there are way better candidates out there that he could hire .............

this is just another black mark on frazier and the poor job he has done as a head coach in my opinion. he hasn't assembled a good coaching staff, he hasn't done a good job with the x's and o's, and he doesn't seem to be reaching his players.

i'm having trouble remembering a team with as much talent as the 2011 vikings winning so few games. i really think frazier should have been let go but now, the funny part is, he could go 6-10 next season and everyone will say, "well, they're going in the right direction" and he'll probably get another year ................
