Minnesota Vikings at Seattle Seahawks
Qwest Field
Seattle, Washington
| 1st | 2nd | 3rd | 4th | F | |
| Vikings | 0 | 10 | 3 | 0 | 13 |
| Seahawks | 6 | 10 | 7 | 7 | 30 |
Game 3 of the pre-season, folks. . .and as Redd Foxx was fond of saying, "This is the big one." The third pre-season game is the one where the starters are generally given the most time and things are a bit less "vanilla" than the other pre-season games. If I had to guess, I'd have to think that the Vikings will play their starters for at least a half tonight, and possibly part of the third quarter as well.
Also, unless I misinterpreted their schedule, the game starts at 8 PM Central, should get over by 11 PM (or so) Central. . .and will then immediately be on the NFL Network for a re-broadcast at midnight Central. That's what my DirecTV box is showing anyway. That's some pretty amazing turnaround right there. I don't know how psyched I am at staying up until 3 AM to watch the beloved Purple, but a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do. I suffer for YOU, ladies and gentlemen.
Continue enjoying your weekend, ladies and gentlemen, and SKOL VIKES!!

I'm glad I haven't seen it thus far
On the bright side, it sounds like Jackson has been having a decent game. Defense has played relatively well, too.
Only 9-0 at this point, because Seattle sucks in the red zone every bit as much as we do.

TRICKY VIKINGS!
Wade took the handoff on an end around and hit a wide open #81 in the end zone. Longwell hits the XP to make it 9-7, Seahawks.
Drive was set up by an Antoine Winfield interception.

It's Cameron Siskowic
Doesn't sound like a good situation at this point.

I wont crown the Vikes Super Bowl champs this year but see maybe a 10-6 season.
They showed some speed in areas all in all feel that this year wont be a bag year.
Special teams are definitely a concern...
