In 2003, he was the offensive coordinator of the Vikings, when they led the league in total offense with 393.4 yards per game. Minnesota was sixth in NFL in scoring that season with 26 points per game. He was with the Vikings from 2002-2004. Before that, Linehan was an assistant in the college ranks with UNLV, Idaho, Washington and Louisville.
