Looks like the Vikes are heading into the Bye week at 6-2, in 1st place... with backup QB and HBs.

Case Keenum is 5-2 if you count his relief appearance. He may not be fancy, but he's effective.

I don't think any of us had a more optimistic prediction for our record going into the Bye week.

I really thought they were going to lose today. But Zimmer and Co. made good halftime adjustments, and Case did alot better later in the game. 6-2 is pretty nice.

Have they ever gone back and figured out how many sacs the purple people eaters would have had had they counted sacs back then?

Everson Griffen doing a post game press conference shortly. Looked fine in the locker room, for what that's worth.

That's worth a lot. If he's on the podium, that's a good sign. Injured guys usually aren't.
