News Item: Vikings extend Childress
I guess they didn't need to do it, but since they're 7-1 and all, I really can't complain. Minnesota teams tend to always either keep coaches forever (Kelly, Gardenhire, Denny Green, Flip Saunders, Jacques Lemaire) or fire them after a year or two (Tice, every non-Flip Wolves coach ever), so it looks like Childress fits more into the former category.
