Shout out to the offensive line for generally playing a good game (even though Ponder is still on the run quite a bit).

Almost nobody runs it well against SF. The important thing is to keep doing it, get positive yardage and maintain enough balance that SF can't just abandon their run defense and attack Ponder.

Blair Walsh drills a 52-yard field goal and #Vikings lead #49ers 17-3 at half. Total control for the home team. Impressive.

Chad Greenway's sure making a lot of plays today. Another stop there on third down. #49ers will settle for another field goal.

Can the game be called now? I'm having 2011 flashbacks. However it ends, we won the first half. 8)

Their defense is so good they can't stop Ponder?

SHUT UP! THIS IS THE VIKINGS KILLING!

Jimmie stinks. Everything going their way? They are EXECUTING IN EVERY FACET OF THE GAME.

If we lose a close game, worst team in the league. If we are up 14 at half time against a team we were 7.5 point underdogs, "everything is going our way."

Good. Vikings play better with some psychological hatred, with a chip on their shoulders. They always play better as the underdog, you historically see it.

We're gonna need just as strong of a 2nd half to beat the 9ers.

The great thing about today and believe you me the Vikes are not out of the woods by any means in this game but the 49ers are rated as a top two team. Harbaugh is a grerat coach and he will make some adjustments. Just sayin' what a great half of football for this "REBUILDING TEAM". AND THERE ARE GREAT SIGN OF PROMISE (cant wait to get Simpson into the lineup) :smilevike:
Do not mistake KINDNESS for WEAKNESS!

Though I may not agree with it, I think AD is gonna get a lot more carries this half. But hopfeully, they keep Rudolph as a strong offensive presence.

I know. Let's see if Leslie, Christian, etc. have matured and learned from last season.

No, he hasn't won the Super Bowl yet. Therefore, he still sucks. :twisted:
