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.

This doesn't take a lot of things into account, though. 

It doesn't take the fact that the Viking were pretty much unable to move the ball all day into account, it doesn't take momentum into account, etc. 

If it was a shootout and we couldn't stop the Vikings offense, then by all means I can see going for it...but momentum was on our side and the defense was playing lights out. No reason to go for it there. It was stupid.
