how did the o-line look today i wasn't able to watch the game? the box score sure does look confusing with all of those points and 1 passing and 1 rushing td. judging by the numbers our offense played bad again.

Double

Jeez...I told myself the next must-win wasn't until the Thanksgiving affair in Detroit, but you wouldn't have known it if you watched the game with me...I was very much intune with that game...I wanted it as a fan soooo bad. Feels great that they won, but if they lost, my goodness would I be sad?...definitely.

We need a therapeutic thread of some sorts...I can only imagine those that witnessed the 4 SB losses on top of the 3 NFCCG losses that I've witnessed.

I'd ask someone how it feels to be elated after being a lifelong fan, but sadly, no one here or Vikings fans anywhere truly know.

Probably wouldn't be that saddening. We were in a 4 game losing streak we were mentlally accepting the loss already expecially against a tough Cardinals team. But since we won, the joy is even sweeter.

There WERE some bad*** things that helped this win... so take a moment to enjoy the turn around.

Lions next...

They looked okay in the first half, the second half some key blocks were missed that caused crucial sacks and fumbles that almost turned the game around.

You're 100% right.

I even posted something to that effect before the game, but of course, the fandom got ahold of me again amidst the drama of that game.

Dammit.

We play some tough teams in the coming weeks especially the Cowboys. That game I will be emotionally locked in because I dont like the Cowboys and most of my friends are Cowboys fans

If the Vikings truly do turn this around -- as in make this season special as most of us succumbed to after the first 5 games -- I refuse to let Cordarrelle's performance and effort slip by the wayside durimg that slide...Hell, even if the season still tanks, that guy has stood out in so many ways, I can't let it NOT be known.

[PacificNorseWest]

Yep...Let's enjoy our Thanksgiving first, but yes, Dallas is a tough #### team and how sweet would it be to knock them off on the following Thursday.

I think they might lose on Turkey day though, so give 'em two straight L's...let Romo get his job back (big Romo fan, but can't knock what Dak is doing).

How were the refs today? I was following the game on gamecast so I couldn't watch it but it seemed like we had to challenge for multiple TDs for us and AZ got bailed out on a bunch of 3rd and 4th downs.

Let's just say the refs I saw the other day at a local pee-wee football game did a better job.

Although some went our way, it's a sad state of penalty calling.

Haha excellent. Well I'm glad we pulled it out the W then!
