Vikings Win! 33-26 over the Redskins. They move to 3-12 on the season. This upsets me so much! It's a meaningless win, they are going nowhere anyways, all it does is hurt their draft prospect next year (not just in round #1 but in every round of the draft). Hopefully, they don't win next week and screw things up even further (as of right now they would draft at the number 3 spot, with 4 wins it's conceivable that they could pick as high as number 6). Anyways, back to the game, I applaud them on their effort, it was much better than last week.
Observations:
-Joe Webb may be igniting a QB controversy going into the off season, he certainly wants no part of the Suck-For-Luck sweepstakes. He finished the game with a 158.3 passer rating.
-Adrian Peterson hurt his knee just 66 yards short of Robert Smith's team record of 6,818 yards, from the looks of the injury, I don't see him returning next week. Hopefully, he's back next season.
-Jared Allen had 1 sack, he's now at 18.5 sacks for the season. Chris Doleman has the Vikings record with 21, the NFL record is Michael Strahan's 22.5.
-Mistrel Raymond interception ended the Vikings streak of 9 games without an interception.
-Jim Kleinsasser announced his retirement. His blocking abilities will be missed.
-Nice job by Toby Gerhart once again filling in for Adrian Peterson, he had his first 100 yard game (109 yards on 11 carries).
-Redskin LB London Fletcher is pretty good.
-The Redskins really need a QB.
-Les Steckel coached the Vikings to a 3-13 season in 1984 and was one and done. Just saying.
-Up next, the Bears in Chicago to close the season.
