    That goes back to his days with the Eagles. Childres and Philly mashed together was Chilly.... 
 Plus he always liked Mexican food so it was natural...
 Really!

    I think his nickname should be “Worst Coach in the NFL.”

    Because when it's time to win the game by going for it on 4th down or going for the 2 point conversion to win it instead of tie it so he can lose in OT, he gets Chilly. His choice of not going for it last night with 5 minutes to go cost the Vikings the game because they never got the ball back. Last year against the Bears and Saints, he chose OT instead of trying to win it with a 2 point conversion when he had momentum. With the Bears, it cost him home field advantage and with the Saints it cost him the season.

Maybe next year their opening game will have a QB that was in training camp for the whole thing, and saw some pre-season games too...
