I wish it looked as good on the field as it does in the standings, but it’s better than losing all of these games last year. It’s the small things again - no bad penalties, no real bonehead mistakes. yes, and also the players have bought in to each other and the coaches. and we're healthy. so, can only get better, presumably.

Tbh at that age it was the colour purple that stood out, that and watching the highlights they always seemed to be in exciting games. When they do win the big one will be all the more special 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Relax Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 I have been a fan since 1968. Heartache is just a part of the package. But, what a day it will be when the Lombardi comes to stay in Minnesota!!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, what a day it will be when the Lombardi comes to stay in Minnesota!!! Indeed, will be a special day and result in a 7 day drinking spree for me and many others over here. We have a good following over here, only behind the "succesful" teams like the Patriots and those who shall not be named 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SemperFeist Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 I do believe that O’Connell’s 5-1 start to his career matches Dennis Green for the franchise’s best start for a first year head coach. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vikesfan89 Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 I didn't get to watch the game but wasn't it well over 100 degrees in the Vikings side line? I would have had a hard time just watching the game in those conditions 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vike daddy Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Vikings edge Za'Darius Smith totaled 10 QB pressures, which tied the most pressures in a game for Smith since 2016, and two sacks on 40 pass rushes. Adam Thielen's touchdown was the 51st of his career, passing Wes Welker (50) for the third-most by an undrafted player in the common draft era. Only Antonio Gates (116) and Rod Smith (68) have more. https://www.nfl.com/news/2022-nfl-season-week-6-what-we-learned-from-sunday-s-games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SemperFeist Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Thielen’s 51st receiving touchdown also gives him sole 4th place in franchise history for touchdown receptions. He needs two more in order to pass Anthony Carter. He won’t catch Cris Carter or Moss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vike daddy Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Patrick Jones was going to have an opportunity to contribute significantly with D.J. Wonnum out with an illness. O'Connell: "He had a look in his eye this whole trip,. It's hard to explain, but I remember seeing him last night and came down in the elevator with him today at the hotel. He was a man on a mission." Jones: "You know it's time to go out there and eat. It's game time. It was my turn to go out there and step it up." https://www.vikings.com/news/pat-jones-danielle-hunter-zadarius-smith-edge-department-impact-week-6 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
