BwareDWare94 723 Posted November 17, 2015 This Vikings defense is stout, y'all, but it needs a nickname. The Zfense? Legion of Zoom? Harry and the Hitmen? World War Z? Make some suggestions! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thanatos 2,847 Posted November 17, 2015 Well... it is Zimmer man's defense... so... Stand Your Ground? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BwareDWare94 723 Posted November 17, 2015 Well... it is Zimmer man's defense... so... Stand Your Ground? Does Carolina's D have a nickname? They definitely need one too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FartWaffles 1,857 Posted November 17, 2015 Why does a defense need a nickname? Most can't even compare to the great nicknames of the past anyways. And no offense to the Vikings, but it's not like they've done anything to even warrant a nickname IMO. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Turry 755 Posted November 17, 2015 Most teams get a nickname for a D after years of overall consistency. For example Steel Curtain, Orange Crush, Monsters of the Midway. Not after half a season 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Favre4Ever+ 4,476 Posted November 18, 2015 (edited) Vikings players are talented, but nobody cares who they are so... I think " Zimmer's Defense " does just fine. Edited November 18, 2015 by Favre4Ever Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cherry 1,302 Posted November 18, 2015 The Bengals defense was twice as fearsome under Zimmer. No name. Broncos defense is lightyears ahead of Vikings right now. No name. Panthers defense is doing a hell of a job. No name. They don't need a name in Minnesota. Jesus man. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OSUViking 505 Posted November 18, 2015 We could always name them after me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BwareDWare94 723 Posted November 19, 2015 The Bengals defense was twice as fearsome under Zimmer. No name. Broncos defense is lightyears ahead of Vikings right now. No name. Panthers defense is doing a hell of a job. No name. They don't need a name in Minnesota. Jesus man. At this point you're disrespecting Minnesota's defense. Is Denver's better? Yes. By lightyears? Not even close. Aside from that, this thread isn't exactly the most serious thing. Why does it matter if they have a nickname? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thanatos 2,847 Posted November 19, 2015 Does Carolina's D have a nickname? They definitely need one too. The Legion of Whom. Started last year as a play off of Seattle's nickname, because we have (had?) a bunch of people that no one really knew who they were. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Panthers defense is doing a hell of a job. No name. They don't need a name in Minnesota. Jesus man. The Broncos' D has a couple names The New Orange Crush (or just Orange Crush) The secondary has been called No Fly Zone (by the media, too) since like week 3.

Cherry 1,302 Posted November 21, 2015 (edited) The New Orange Crush (or just Orange Crush) I prefer Manning's Orange Crutch. Edited November 21, 2015 by Chernobyl426 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OSUViking 505 Posted November 23, 2015 We don't deserve a nickname until we beat the Purple People Eaters. I wish I had been alive for that era. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
