Thread: DR Z Picks the Vikes to Win it All

Yeah, some real gems on there...Hope he right about McKinnie!!!

Larry of Maple Grove, Minn., disagrees with my evaluation of Bryant McKinnie as a forceful left tackle and sees many errors there. Three years ago I thought he was a stiff. Two years ago I thought he had really improved. Last year I thought he was regressing a bit. I felt the coaches had allowed him to fall back into bad habits. I asked Childress about him specifically. He said he's poised to have the year of his life, and mentioned a few indications of why he felt that way. I believe the coach.

Contrary to how good Ranger thinks Dr. Z is, Dr. Z's own words pretty much sum it up for me......

From Brandon of Stockton, Calif.: "Have you ever been right in these crazy predictions?"

[Dr. z] No.

(Joe. cont.): "I'm trying to think of the last time you got a Super Bowl pick right, Dr. Idiot!"

[Dr. z] Packers-Raiders, Super Bowl II

As you’ve probably heard by now, Sports Illustrated’s Paul Zimmerman has picked the Vikings to win the Super Bowl for the 2008 season. The reaction I’ve sensed from most Viking fans is “Yeah, we’ve seen pre-season Super Bowl predictions for this team before.”...

It pretty much is a Do-or-Die year for the Vikes and Chilly, we NEED to make the playoffs... Fischer makes a good point:

If Childress doesn't succeed this season, the Vikes will likely miss the playoffs, Childress will likely lose his job, and the search for the next quarterback of the future will begin.

Another season of disappointment and broken dreams. Hoorah.
