Real question, has any head coach had to try and overcome all this adversity?

-Peterson beating his kid and sitting out

-Teddy’s knee falls apart

-Trade for Bradford, offensive line falls apart

-Zimmer’s eye explodes

-Bradford’s knee quits working

-Case takes over then has a crap game against the poop eaters

—sign Cousins, he’s expensive and mediocre

-defense regresses , Hunter out for the year x2

-Covid

-4 different OC’s

(I didn’t list everything)

He’s caused some of his own problems with slim shady clock management and suspect defensive calls.

I’m convinced Cousins isn’t the answer but I’m torn on Zimmer. He might be a good coach in a bad situation ( although he created some of problems that exist now)

It seems Mama Cass will stumble out of her grave for one last song as....it ain`t over until the fat lady sings, but sadly she is warming up her voice and starting to walk to the spotlight.

Hard not to have empathy for Zimmer... he is dealing with an incredible amount of stress-creating issues and the media is relentless in assuring every stressor is highlighted in detail. I am sympathetic to Zimmer but not to the point I would extend his contract as part of that sympathy. He's been a good coach... Cousins has been a good quarterback. "Good" has kept us in mediocrity with no sign that is changing for the better. Time to take a risk to establish "Great" instead of good. I don't expect a win at LA. Hope they surprise me.

I believe Zimmer is a good coach. Yes, he has some flaws, but overall, he's had to continuously endure a meteorological fecal storm front. Get rid of Cousins in 2022 (trade) and keep Zimmer. Did you notice his reaction to a question during his Monday press conference? Zimmer's body started rocking... a sign of extreme stress. Poor guy...
