Former Minnesota Vikings star linebacker Chad Greenway believes ex-coach Mike Zimmer came with the sort of style that needed adjusting. A player’s ability to adapt and adjust to a more aggressive coaching style likely told the story on how they experienced Zimmer.
While Greenway admitted that kind of coaching isn’t for everyone, he still thinks the source of the information was an elite football mind, once you get beyond the new-school preferences.
“[Zimmer] wasn’t for everybody and I think his approach was very aggressive,” Greenway told Fox News Digital. “…It’s a little more pressure and a little more serious and that’s fine. I could adapt because I had been in the league for nine years already. I could adapt and adjust, but a lot of other guys couldn’t, and it was hard for them and I could understand that.
