Ya know, for seven weeks I refused to 'truly' believe in my Vikings. Sure, they were a nice story coming off of a 3-13 season, but many fans we're skeptical as the wins began piling up.
I finally swallowed their story hook, line and sinker, as they headed into their nationally televised game last night. I figured they'd bury an average Bucs club by at least 14.
Funny thing about MN sports teams. They like to wait until you've re-fallen in love with them to RIP your heart out.
The Vikes were thoroughly dominated, yes DOMINATED, in every facet of the game last night. Offensively, they were putrid, defensively, they couldn't get a stop when needed (and Tampa's rookie running back looked like Walter Payton). Special Teams was also outplayed.
So, in reality, last night's Vikings are who we originally thought they were at the beginning of the season.
Yuk.
