Brad Childress: Record with Vikings wasn’t problem, hubris was
Brad Childress says he “stands by his record” as coach of the Vikings, but it wasn’t his record that ultimately got him fired by Zygi Wilf.
Andy Reid says Brad Childress should get another shot as a head coach in the NFL, and maybe he’s right.
Until that shot materializes Childress will continue working as co-offensive coordinator under Reid in Kansas City.
In a profile in USA TODAY, Childress says he almost didn’t come back to work for Reid, but contemplated retirement instead.
Childress says his experience watching his friend Jim Johnson succumb to cancer made him reassess his plan to retire.
You only go around once and all that sort of thing.
