Minnesota Vikings Coach Brad Childress wonders if the New Orleans Saints are too aggressive or even dirty

Minnesota Coach Brad Childress has known Saints defensive coordinator Gregg Williams for a while now.

Minnesota Vikings Coach Brad Childress and the Vikings come to New Orleans on Thursday.
He is familiar with the aggressive, unapologetic play of Williams' defenses.
But Childress, whose team meets the New Orleans Saints in the season opener Thursday night in the Superdome, sometimes wonders if the Williams and his players go too far.

"His defenses have always been aggressive," Childress said Sunday morning. "We were able to face them for a number of years when we were with the Eagles when he was with Washington. It's always been a storm the castle type of approach.
"(He's) kind of known for that, even when he was back at Tennessee back with Jeff (Fisher). I understand a quarterback's going to get hit, people are going to get hit. It's football. I don't have any illusions about that. What I hate to see are late hits or attempts to hurt anybody. I don't think there's a place for that in the game."
In last year's NFC championship game the Saints were fined a total of $30,000 for four different hits on Vikings players, including three that were delivered to quarterback Brett Favre. The Saints also were flagged three times for personal foul penalties.
Childress said he definitely wonders if the Saints were intentionally trying to injure his players in that game.
"Yes, I would have to say that, yes," he said.

Like i said in another thread..maybe one of our LBs steps out on accident and takes chilli out...lol

The only reason they are saying we are dirty is because - We hadn't had a good D for a number of years, average QB's had big days against us. Then GW comes in, gets the guys flying round, hitting everything that moves, people can't handle the fact that our D was good last year.
If it was the Ravens/steelers doing something like this, they wouldn't bat an eyelid, get used to it chilly!!

Now the Vikings are starting to whine and cry and offer excuses BEFORE the game? They fear us.

Tell that ugly SOB to shut the hell up. He can't even coach his own team because he's got panties on.

Man, this is just too much. I mean, right after they lost they're looking for excuses. I'm sure losing the NFC Championship hurt them pretty bad, so I can almost give 'em a pass for whiney behavior for a day or two - I'm sure they needed something to help them sleep at night, but we're about to kick off another season, what, six months later? And they are STILL going to the press with this crap?

To all the other teams on the Queens schedule. Slobber-knock them, and especially their QB. Minnesota should remember this isn't shuffle board. It's the NF Freakin L for crying out loud. Man up or go the hell home.

Keep crying, Chilli. You're going to need a lifetime supply of Kleenex when we get done with you.
