Vikings Beat Raiders at the Dome

The Minnesota Vikings beat the Oakland Raiders 29-22 at the Metrodome Sunday in true Vikings fashion . . .they almost let it slip away. Culpepper was back on the Metrodome turf in his Raiders uniform and was a reminder to this Vikings Vixen that he was truly a flash in the pan talent…then again Tarvaris Jackson hasn’t flashed at all. The best pass of the game was on the opening drive when Sidney Rice tossed the ball 60 yards to Vikings tight end Visanthe Shiancoe. Hey Chilly, Perhaps we could move Rice to QB?!?!?

Both the Vikings and the Raiders played pitifully for NFL teams, but I have to agree with Darren Sharper when he says, "You understand how hard it is to get (a win) in this league. And at 3-6, you can't pick and choose how you win," safety Dwight Smith said. "You just take them when they come." Added linebacker Ben Leber: "It wasn't pretty, but a win is a win."

You know what wasn't pretty? the Packers shutting us out last week - I am still scarred.
