It would be nice to see Wallace go up and fight for the ball with body position.

"Vikings have great special teams."

I think this is the ESPN Classic game where we beat the Giants off a special teams return. I WAS PROMISED A LIVE GAME.

I still don't like the type of run they did on 2nd down. It seemed like they settled for the FG there rather than pushing for a TD.

This btw is the perfect weather to bust out Patterson. Odds we get him involved? Probably zero.

I will credit norv with going for the TD there, I feel like that was the right call even though it didn't work out.

A little under thrown but great defensive play.

He wouldn't have been able to do anything with that throw.

I don't understand why they wont TRY it... it's frustrating.

If the defense can keep the run game in check and also get Peterson going on offense, I think they have a great chance to win this game

Gross.
Teddy just passed 3,000 yards for season. Just 2nd yr since Daunte in 04 (Favre, 09) that a #vikings qb has reached that modest threshold.

What are you going to do with him? Try an end-around? Those never seem to work out for us.

Purplemustreign: you're right about the throw to Wallace. Just my season long frustration with Wallace.
