This past Tuesday, amidst a Snownami of ill repute, Cincinnati Bengals defensive coordinator, Mike Zimmer, received a second interview with the Minnesota Vikings in hopes to become their new head coach. He was seen early boarding a flight from Cincinnati (originally thought to just be leaving, because holy shit, Ohio), and was later seen being delivered to Winter Park in Minnesota (Video below!).
But beyond that, details of the interview have been sparse. Early speculation last week indicated Zimmer would only accept a head coaching position where he would have full control of player personnel decisions as well, essentially rendering current GM Rick Spielman's daily tasks moot (as if they weren't already). Since then, no word has crept out of the door, aside from the fact that Zimmer is a heavy favorite to land the job, thanks to his second interview.
Well, thanks to the amazing connections that Purple Jesus Diaries has access to, we've been granted details on how parts of the second interview between Rick Spielman and Mike Zimmer went this week. Details after the jump …
