First of many...This game went a long way to washing the bad taste of 2016 away...

Watching Cook succeed had to be double poison: not only did Peterson fail to produce anything we would covet, but he saw, firsthand, that we replaced him more than adequately.
I was glad he did it in a game against Peterson. I don't hate the guy or anything, but I think he burned some bridges with the Vikings talking about being disrespected and then how he wanted to stick it to them.

I think it was Tom at training camp that told me that "Dalvin Cook is not going to replace AD, but he will make people forget about him"

There were quite a few Cook jerseys and fans saying things like where's DC at or come on DC. It was exciting.

Cook played a very nice game; in pass protection too. He's a tough guy, and I really liked he broke AD's rookie record. A rookie AD would've scored on that last long run though. B)
Looks like the Vikes got a really good one in Cook. He clearly deserves to be the #1 RB.

No but I think we will see more of Murray this weekend and the coming weeks. I have to imagine that he is on a limited number of snaps until he is fully up to seed from missing the whole Offseason.@HappyViking said:

Depends on if Murray can hang onto the ball.
