Minnesota Vikings News and Links: September 23, 2019

Merry post-win Monday, everyone!

Yesterday, we saw another stellar performance by the Vikings defense and running game, and a much better performance from the passing game. Cousins was much more accurate, made better decisions with the ball, and he held on to the ball. I was happy to see his performance, and am hopeful that the Packers game was an anomaly.

Around the DN since our last open thread:

Ted stopped by and dropped off the Stock Market Report: Raiders.

Yesterday’s victory brought the franchise to some significant milestones, per Chris.

Chris has your post-game wrap-up.

Chad Beebe was carted off the field yesterday, let’s hope he’s okay.

We come to today’s media selection:

My favorite DN tradition, STRIKE UP THE BAND!

We all know the rules, but in case someone is new:

• No discussion of politics or religion
• No feeding of the trolls
• Leave the gender hatred at the door
• Keep the bad language to a minimum (using the spoiler tags, if you must)
• Speaking of which, if discussing a newer show or movie, please use spoiler tags
• No pictures that could get someone fired or in serious trouble with their employer
• If you can’t disagree in a civil manner, feel free to go away
• While navigating the open thread, just assume it’s sarcasm.

With that, the beer light is on and the bar is open. Belly up & tie one on, don’t tip the cows don’t forget to tip your waitress, and ARRRRGH, enjoy the boiled parrot, ye’ scurvy scallywags.
