Even as a Bears fan I have the utmost respect for Jerry. He was a hell of a coach, a tough no BS standup guy. He was perfect for the old NFC Central

[@johnnyfoosba6894]

Burnsie and that Viking crew sure rocked the 49ers in 87' playoffs when the 49ers were in their prime! I loved ole Burnsie and he made me a Vikings fan at a very early age!

[@Jefff72]

Burns was a good coach! There is no quesfuck about it! It was GM Mike Lynn who pulled the trigger on the disastrous Herschel Walker trade without consulting the coaching staff.

I miss Burnsie, he was a good coach!

[@davidmueller980]

Went to high school with one of Jerry’s kids. Some Vikings players sometimes played basketball at school. RIP Coach.

Of all the coaching tirades, Burnsie’s was the very best ! “F - - kers! “

[@iverar]

Yeah, I just rewatched that press conference the other day. Hilarious stuff with a ton of f bombs!

[@rodneybjornstad9016]

He earned my respect when he spoke out for Bob Snelker Kudos Burnsie !

[@greyeagle4388]

I Love this Man!! RIP Burnsie. As a child of the 80's I looked up to Bud Grant and then of course Jerry Burns. I will never forget what they meant to Minnesota. Just wished Burnsie would have been promoted in 1984 instead of Steckle

RIP Coach Burns

[@Robsay01]

Coaches like him are a thing of the past
Sadly it’s true. He was just a normal not flashy guy coaching some very good teams.
