I don't mind the 4th down call

I know that you can't just follow that off a cliff, but it wasn't a crazy decision IMO. And it probably would have been converted if Mixon didn't stumble in the backfield.

I want a coach that trusts his team and plays to win instead of not to lose. Sometimes it'll end badly, but I think it will be a benefit over the course of the season.

Stopped reading after the bold above.  It was absolutely a crazy decision based on the field position and how the game was being played at the time.  With the defense playing well there is zero reason to risk a momentum change with a short field.

In the NFL a punt is not necessarily a bad thing, especially when you're up 14 points and controlling the game.  That stupid little decision by ZT completely changed momentum and turned the game around for the Vikings - he's very lucky the Vikes fumbled away the game at the end.

I too like being aggressive but being stupid I don't.
