Vikings win game 21-17

Vikings’ fans, it’s not time to give up hope yet. Sure, our expectations went sky-high after the 5-0 start and now all seems lost, but it’s not! Our offense has shown some life and our defense has shown some leadership.

Sam Bradford has been smart with the football and is starting to make quick, accurate passes. The run game may be showing a little bit of life with the help of Ronnie Hillman. If the defense can get back to the form they were in during the 5-game winning streak, things could get back on track for the Vikes.

This week, we won’t have to worry about the defense – they will be flying around the field. We won’t have to worry about the kicking game – Forbath is going to find success in his debut. Things are starting to look up in Minnesota, it’s just time to get back in the win column.
