dogbert 0 Posted August 30, 2008 Should I be worried about Adrian's production with Mckinnie being out the first four weeks? The first two games will be tough enough and then they go to Tennessee week 4. Is there a chance that his suspension gets reduced if he strikes a deal like Marshall did? Thanks guys.

mambokings 0 Posted August 30, 2008 McKinnie was hardly the best run blocker on the team and even his pass blocking was suspect. People go gaga over his size, but if you analyze his technique it's not the greatest. That said, it might hurt the passing game more (if that's possible, given how much it sucks). Artis Hicks is expected to fill-in and he's a seven year veteran and former starter on this O-line. Speaking of size, Hicks is big too. He's 6'4" and 335 pounds. I think he'll slide in just fine. Not to mention, the Vikings still have Birk and Hutchinson on this line and they're full of steam. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
