My point is this defense needs a defensive coordinator who is goona put a foot in some azzes. Not one who is looking to be loved.

However Mike is not a Defensive Coordinator for the Vikings.

Vikings #2 in defense...
Minnesota Vikings Team Page at NFL.com
But they sucked against the pass, relatively speaking.
Singletary was not a DC.....just a LB coach ... Minnesota Vikings | Coaches
So, just how much credit he is due remains in question. Maybe the ACTUAL DC, Alan Williams? How does that translate into a viable DC for us?

Payton knows

Yeah, I didn't mean that Singletary was the one who deserves credit for the improved defense the Vikes fielded this year, only that he hasn't been a disruptive force within the staff nor has he had any altercations with players. And that comment was made in response to the concerns some voiced at the way things ended between him and the 49ers. Singletary is not the DC for the Vikes, but a "special assistant to the HC" and the LB coach, although I don't know if anyone here really stated that he was their DC to begin with. In any case, he does deserve credit for the way Jasper Brinkley played this season, it being the first season he played as the starting MLB taking over for E. J. Henderson.

And there's no way Williams is going to leave the Vikes to make a lateral move to New Orleans, because he is happy in Minnesota and he works well together with Frazier... AND he has much better player material over there.

I don't think Singletary is a good coach. He had the basic pieces in San Fran and couldn't do anything with them.
He was a great player and could possibly be a position coach. Maybe.
I just wasn't a fan of his coaching style.

He's a lot like Herm Edwards. Too boisterous. When I saw Singletary embarrass Alex Smith on the sidelines I hoped that he would never be involved with the Saints organization.
