sunshine and hope again

Yes sir, its week to week in the NFL. Its raised my mood, I'll say that much. Really need these next 2 wins to get to 4-2-1. 

But NFC wins on the road are gold. Thumbs up. 

We had to win over the Rams or Eagles...Tall order. 

Time to give the players and coaches props after yesterday. And they went toe to toe with the Rams in LA too.

Gotta roll now with 3 of the next 4 at home - including a BIGGIE with The Saints. 

I must admit, I enjoyed the win, but can still see many issues with the team.  Hopefully the injuries are over and we start gelling. 

Oh, and the NFL wants no defense allowed.  So at least we have a QB and WRs to carry our offense in this new NFL.

Yeah, I think Zimmer's job is safe again, at least for this week.  B)

It was a nice step in the right direction.  Hopfully this Viking team keeps an even keel, and continues to get better one game at a time.

Yup, back on track again! Was a good and much needed win.
Except, like you mention, those items that still need some clean up.

And like purplefaithful mentions, have to take advantage of these next 4 weeks. 

Next week...Arizona Cardinals.  Main goal - shut down David Johnson and then turn the dogs loose on Rosen.

Vikings have this going for them from this point on:

-5 division games

-4 after the bye
 -3 at home
 -Packers tiebreaker comes down to Week 12 AT HOME
 -Bears Week 17 at US Bank Stadium

The opportunity to save the season is well within their hands now with this win in Philly. Right the ship and figure it out, its not too late by any means.

And we have our trap game out of the way...

All agreed with. We still control our own destiny. Still have a full slate of division games after coming out with a disappointing tie in GB.

Can we get a running game to go along with our high powered passing game?
Not to crap on all  the good things but I would have liked to see the Rams miss getting that fourth and short and Seattle hand them their first loss for gambling.

Would really like to see us get our running game going.  We our gonna need to be able to run some or it will bite us.  Would also like to see continued improvement in the DB's . Still a lot of wide open targets in half number 2 yesterday.  No back steps, dominate this game the way we should.  Then it will feel like the ship is back on course.

No doubt there are things I'd love to see for improvement and the running game is up there. Rams keep firing on all cylinders like this and they'll be the NFC #1 seed. I can think of worse places to have to play because that stadium isn't loud.
