Vikes beat Cardinals
Today the Vikings played Arizona and many people had Arizona beating Minnesota but Minnesota wasn't going to let that happen. To get things going Bernard Berrian had an 82 yard punt return for a touchdown early in the 1st quarter. Then half way through the 1st Tavaris Jackson hooked up with Berrian for another touchdown. Again at the end of the 1st Jackson threw another touchdown but this time to Sidney Rice. Then at the end of the 2nd quarter Jackson threw another touchdown, this time to Chester Taylor. The Vikings were the only ones who scored in the 1st half so at halftime the Vikes were up 28-0 and looked to run away with the game. The 2nd half was different tho Arizona came out and scored a touchdown in the first two minutes of the half. Then Arizona blocked a Minnesota field goal and brought the game to 28-14, but that would be it for Arizona. For Minnesota, however, they had one more touchdown to score. That touchdown came at the last seconds of the 3rd quarter when Jackson threw another touchdown to Bobby Wade. Then niether team scored in the 4th quarter so the final was 35-14. This was Jacksons' first came back from being benched after the 2nd game of the year. He had a career game today also throwing for 163 yards and 4 touchdowns which was a career high. Adrian Peterson had another good rushing game with 165 rushing yards. Next the Vikes take on Atlanta next sunday who have the same record as them.
