111 passing yards isn't going to get us many W's

But, Megatron (5 for 54) was covered solidly

Titans next week, schedule looks favorable. AD broke 100 and is back. Defense ruled until they went prevent. Simpson had an impact. Go Vikes!

Vikings have to say more aggressive, but this was a solid outing by the defense and functional performance by the offense. Almost all of the scoring game on those big special teams plays, though, which should be a reason to worry going forward. The offense has to get more out of the passing game.

EDIT: Sorry Crax. I thought you said defense.


SKOL!

Don't rain on my parade. The D was outstanding and the special teams were unreal. Of course it was wise to run down the clock with a 14 point lead and have AD there. :wallbang:
Who would have predicted them beating the 49ers and then the Lions at thier place.
Do not mistake KINDNESS for WEAKNESS!

Who could've predicted being 3-1 at this point in the season?

It's 4th down, though. Atlanta still may have just under 2 mins to get a FG to win.

Really? Holding them to 13 points on the road? Come on dude.

Vikings were awesome today. :v):
Look at the offensive box score and tell me if you still think they were awesome offensively.

They got the win and that is what matters, but the passing game stunk today.
