10th Anniversary of the Denny Green Meltdown
I’ve never understood the bad rep the late Denny Green (1949-2016) received as a coach. Green finished his NFL career with a 113-94 win-loss record, and led my Vikings to the playoffs eight of his 10 seasons with the team. I liked the guy. Sadly, many will remember Green only for his 2006 tirade made during his tenure with the Arizona Cardinals. This week marks the 10th anniversary of that meltdown. For those of you that remember, in a post-game interview following a heartbreaking loss to the Chicago Bears that saw the Cardinals blow a 20-point lead in the fourth quarter, Green simply lost it. If you’ve never seen it, check out the video below.
