Zimmer wanted Guenther to come with him when he took the job as Vikings HC, but at the time Guenther was a hot item and didn't want to be in Z's shadow. Now, Guenther is about as hot as an ice cube.
Or, he's about to be benefactor to a D returning to Top 10 form.
I think it's possible. I like this secondary with a year of offseason activity and training camp.
Me too...Those guys are all in RS's ear about finally getting a 3t

Relatively speaking ice cubes are pretty warm. Heck I remember the Giants game at TCF. They iced the beer in cow tubs to keep it warm. 
I was at that game.
I think with a bunch of other VF members, I can't remember anything but the cold and dark lol!!
It was like going back in time, right to the Olde Met.
Yep, my son and I were there too, pf (I think we did shots together) - really fun game. It was below zero, but the tailgate area was crazy with blaring music, a disco ball, and walleyes swimming in a kiddie pool - funnier than shit!
That's right @HappyViking!!
I wont miss outdoor football at night, in winter in MN, but it was a blast from the past for sure. TCF was a nice place to play in the fall though.

Took my kids to a game at TCF in the middle of October. Waking through campus from the stadium to the light rail station was something we'll never forget. Just one of those gorgeous fall days in mpls with the sugar maples on fire with color.
Wonder if Geno Atkins has any tread left. He was one of Zim's favorites and adding Gunther might help recruitment.

According to Wiki Guenther became the Cincy Def Coor when Zim left.
IMO it's an advantage to hire coaches who were Defensive or Offensive Coordinators,

And in that spirit, I though the 40th coach added to Zimmers staff would be a passing coordinator - so other side of the ball completely.

In that train of thought....
ESPN finds a free agent fit for the Vikings (msn.com)
Christopher Gates? Don't we know that guy?

I'll say this: with Hunter and Pierce back and say a Barrimore is drafted.....some very lucky DE is going to benefit from that lineup with single blocking on the edge. Whether its a guy like Lawson or another FA if they go that route, that person could have a career year.
