If anyone hires Mike Tice as a head coach they should be forced to sell their franchise.

How that meathead got 4 years is beyond belief. All the Vikings needs is that head coach to get over the hump because they have the talent. Childress could be that guy. People like to bring up that Reid calls the plays and this wasn't a great hire for the Vikings. Did Reid call the plays when he was under Holgrem? Reid and Childress were still involved in game planning, schemes, and honed their craft behind pretty good offensive head coaches.

I'm glad he didn't call the plays for their sake, because the Vikes have about 200 tailbacks they need to use more than Philadelphia uses Westbrook. Childress is a good hire...interesting to see where Bevell takes the offense.

Back in college now.

Herm Edwards is only getting started at Arizona State

Herm Edwards has cracked college football.

He hasn't broken it -- yet? -- but this season's most unconventional new hire has Arizona State at 2-0 after last week's 16-13 win over the No. 15 Michigan State. Edwards outfoxed one of the country's best coaches in Mark Dantonio during a winning 69-yard drive by forcing timeouts and simply playing for a field goal while bleeding the final 4:55 off the clock.

"He out-chested the very fine Dantonio when he took that last timeout," ASU athletic director Ray Anderson told ESPN. He stood under the winning goalposts during Brandon Ruiz's 28-yard kick. "That was it. I'm not sure folks anticipated he would do that.

"That was really gratifying to see because some of the folks wanted to doubt the intellectual capacity [of Edwards]. I think he has quieted that noise quite well."

Arizona State enters Week 3 ranked No. 23, its first AP ranking since the 2015 preseason. Now Edwards has to make sure his team doesn't waste its promising start when it goes on the road to play San Diego State (1-1).

On Tuesday, Edwards surprised players and coaches with a slideshow of a man blowing up a balloon until it got too big and popped. The symbolism was obvious, but Edwards won't miss an opportunity to send his team a message.

"You gotta stay humble and hungry, man," Edwards said. "That's how we function around here.

"They're getting a good feel for who I am when it comes to that stuff because I create chaos all the time around here, but you have to be able to function in it."
