It seems as though the Vikings are going to explore many options before they decide on who the new head coach of the team will be. It is a good sign for Minnesota fans that the team isn’t going to settle for one of the first candidates that they interview. Word on the street is that the team is looking for a disciplinarian for their new head coach, which would be a stark contrast from the previous person in that position, Leslie Frazier.

Here is the current list of known candidates for the job according to 1500 ESPN:

Todd Bowles (Cardinals defensive coordinator)

Dan Quinn (Seahawks defensive coordinator)
