I just saw that TD on red Zone. Did Delmas really think he could bring AD down by putting a shoulder into him? :lol:

This has been a wacky game so far but that was a nice drive by the Vikes.

The two biggest scrubs on offense finally made a nice play! Good Job Ponder and Simpson. I wanna see more of that this year. And Peterson may just get that 2500 this year. He is a monster.

AD with the 2 TDs.
So far the luck gods are with the Vikes cause this game should be in the Lions favor. But then the Vikes have had more then their fair share on the other end.

I agree...And I'm hoping these Lion f ups in the redzone give the Vikes D a psuedo-confidence of a bend but don't break mentality.

Hoping the team implodes? Lions always seem to have these meltdowns against us.

Nice little stop there. Any points here is huge, makes it a two possession game.
