Lions at Vikings, Second Half Open Thread
It hasn't necessarily been pretty thus far, but the Vikings have the lead at halftime over the Lions by a score of 14-10. The Viking defense has been outstanding, as its been through the first two games of the year, and the offense has shown moments of actually looking like they might be catching up. Of course, two interceptions from the hand of Brett Favre. . .one of which was an awful throw, and one of which can be placed squarely on the shoulders of Phil Loadholt. . .have allowed the Lions to keep it close, as the Lions have gotten all 10 of their points off of those turnovers.
The second half is ready to get underway, ladies and gentlemen. . .can Minnesota hold on and get their first victory of 2010?

I should have known the NFL would never let the one and only Drama Queen start out 0-3. This is the most pathetically called game I have ever seen. Just horrendous. The Lateral that was not a lateral was just the beginning. wow.
As usual, when your team sucks, just play the Lions and we will make you feel so much better.
Lions fans deserve better than being the laughing stock of the NFL. Lets all hope they are heading in the right direction finally.

Good lord.... Penalties are killing us
Ah, ah,
We come from the land of the ice and snow,
From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
The hammer of the gods will drive our ships to new lands,

SKOL!

They say we didn't find the miracle in game three
but i’m pretty sure we found Peterson in game three..
It's a lot easier to love the Vikings when they win...
and BB
found holding, and how to catch simple passes.

doesn't hurt....
Cam caught another pass as well.

Is AD's right knee ok?
It looked like he hyperextended it a bit on the end of the long (negated, thanks BB) run. He was limping a bit at the end. I hope he’s ok…
Slow pursuit

And there's your ball game
Winfield with the Vikings’ second pick of the afternoon in the end zone, and that will seal it for Minnesota.

Haha this is amazingly funny, i found this comment on NFL.com
I think the Saints would win three games if there were no field goals in football.

And that's the ball game, folks!
Vikings 24, Lions 10 in what can charitably be termed as “relatively ugly fashion.”
But, hey, ugly wins are wins, too.
More on the game later on this afternoon. . .yours truly needs to get ready to head in to work.
Enjoy the rest of your football Sunday, folks!

1-2 and no massive panic. Whew!
A win is a win. Baghdad… OUT.
It may take a village to raise a child, but it takes a Viking to raze a village.
i'll take it. not dead yet. sorry lions, we had to do it.

If the Saints win here

We beat a team we should have beat
I will garuntee that Detroit will win more than two this year.
It's a lot easier to love the Vikings when they win...
Still made a lot of dumb mistakes though
I hope the Vikings use the next couple weeks to get in sync, working on ball control and reducing penalities

Do you think Peterson is ok?
Looked like he over-extended his knee on the long (negated) run…
I LOVED how he played today, but if he’s not healthy we’re (even more) screwed…
He stayed in the game
and ran it the next play. Doesn’t look too bad…at this point.

Actually, we should be rooting against the Falcons
Because it’s more likely we’ll be competing with them for the Wildcard; the Saints are likely to win their division.
See Hartley? That's how you do it.

Anyone hear an update on Peterson's knee?
It looked like he tweaked it at the end
Considering
he kept playing, I think he’s fine.
by Jepp The Viking on Sep 26, 2010 3:48 PM CDT up reply actions
I hope you're right
…but he only played one more play and he ran out of bounds (which he never does), when they needed to run the clock. He might have been favoring it.
Damn I hope like heck he is healthy, AD is the MAN.
