Chargers name Jeff Davidson their new O-line coach. Had same role with Vikings past five years. Worked with Mike McCoy in Carolina.

Or should I say new Turd Polisher?

Vikings gave up 45 sacks and allowed the most QB pressure last season. Excellent.

so he worked for NOrv?

Was actually a hold over from Leslie Frazier, but having Norm run your offense never helps you as the OL coach.

The Vikings have fired offensive line coach Jeff Davidson, coach Mike Zimmer said Tuesday.

Asked why he didn't renew his contract, Zimmer said "I didn't want to."

Davidson was with the Vikings for five seasons, the last two under Zimmer. Zimmer inherited him from former coach Leslie Frazier.

Minnesota's offensive line had numerous problems during the year. Vikings quarterbacks were sacked 45 times, with starter Teddy Bridgewater going down in 44 of them.
