http://t.co/7fNRQDlpLf
One season after leading the Minnesota Vikings to the playoffs, Leslie
Frazier is out of a job.
NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport reports that Frazier was fired Monday,
according to the team. The Vikings went 4-3-1 in their final eight games, but
it wasn't enough.
Frazier finishes 21-32-1 in three plus seasons as Vikings coach, including a
3-13 mark in 2011, his first full season as head coach He took over as
interim head coach for Brad Childress midway through the 2010 season.
Frazier's tenure was marked by an inability to develop a quarterback. This
season, he struggled just to choose between Christian Ponder, Matt Cassel,
and Josh Freeman. Even more damning: Frazier's defense badly declined in
2013, giving up more points than any team in football.
