We really fucked up not making him our HC. Vikings got a great coach.

Yep, the Vikings will make the playoffs. Can't blame Jerry for this one, it's not like he knows anything about Zimmer....

Yep. 1st place schedule, Super Bowl hangover, happens all the time. 10-6, 3rd in division

Hey, I know it sounds crazy, but look at history. Ravens, Giants, Packers, Saints, Steelers and Giants were the previous 6 winners. Check out how they all did the next year

I would tend to sway your way about the hangover thing especially with an inconsistent offense, but you have to believe they have 7 for sure wins on their schedule and I havent even looked at it. They simply do not lose at home so at worst Im thinking 7-1

I think they are a heck of a team, probably 10-6. I just think their entire division is hungry, and the other 3 teams pretty much killed it in the draft. Combine that with a 1st place schedule, and I think it's possible. I think the Rmas and Niners are dead even with them talent wise and the Cards are close

Some of those teams were nowhere near the best team the year they won it and none of them had the combo of skill and youth and dominance that Seattle did. Easier to make a case that Seattle does better in the regular season this year than worse, but this is sports and anything can happen

Zimmer took Barr in the top 10 and plans on doing exactly what I said I would with him year one. SOLB on run downs and rushing the passer in the nickel.

I think Barr is going to be the best defensive player from this draft when it's all said and done. Getting Bridgewater with the last pick of the first round was a great move. The Vikings are right beside the Rams, they are coming...

I think they just don't have enough talent at this point to be very good, but I think they had a great draft. They also got my guy Crichton that I love and although I wasn't high on Yankey, I think in the 5th round he was a great pick.

They got a lot of value picks.
