8-3, pretty awesome.
And hopefully the more the season goes on, the more Norv, Teddy, the Oline, and WR all get in sync.
We wont have AD like this every week (or will we?)

Excellent win. As far as development, maybe even more important than if they won last week. Shows they really can put negativity behind. Beat a team with a winning record, on the road.

ODB just made another RIDICULOUS catch. Will have our hands full with that.

If you're going to count on anything count on AD over Norv and that O-Line protecting Teddy!PurpleKoolaid wrote:8-3, pretty awesome.

Re: Vikings @ Falcons Game Day Discussion Thread -- Week 12
This was a very important win, when you consider the remaining schedule.
vs Seahawks
@ Cardinals
vs Bears
vs Giants
@ Packers
No gimmes in that list. Even the Bears have awakened.
If the Vikes can win at least two games before facing the Packers, we are in very good shape.

Really amazing catch! Almost as good as Stefon Diggs's diving catch against the Lions.S197 wrote:ODB just made another RIDICULOUS catch. Will have our hands full with that.

Bah. Just shows that those sticky WR gloves need to seriously be reined in. There are essentially no rules governing them and they're like freaking velcro. Put a hand or even 3 fingers out and whap, like glue. They're stickier than Lester Hayes with the stickum on the old Oakland Raiders of the 70s & early 80s.
Do that with bare hands, or even non-sticky gloves, then get back to me...

That was a pretty great year, except for that Atlanta game at the end.S197 wrote:

How big is this Bears game now? Wow. That is going to huge. Winning this one is a must.soflavike wrote:This was a very important win, when you consider the remaining schedule.

Don't hate on my Buckeyes. Some of the best Vikings went to Ohio State.
Including now, HOF WR #80 Cris Carter
Re: Vikings @ Falcons Game Day Discussion Thread -- Week 12
I think they should be looked at but Jerry Rice used to put stickum on his gloves. He's still the best receiver to play the game. I don't really see anyone else making the catches that Beckham is right now. He's getting aided but I don't think it takes away from what he's doing, otherwise we'd be seeing those catches on a weekly basis.DavidKarki wrote:
