The air in Mall of America Field in Minneapolis, MN was a mixed bag of apprehension, excitement and worry along with a dose of contempt. Once again Minnesota Vikings fans poured into what used to be the Metrodome, hoping for a victory and an end to a 4 week losing streak. The first half of the game started out with a bang, silencing some members of the crowd who were booing McNabb, a result of his poor performance over the last month. Adrian Peterson showed the NFL why he is worth a $100-million contract as he pounded the Cardinals defensive line and linebackers over and over again as he scored 3 touchdown's in the first quarter. The Vikings remained hot throughout the remainder of the half, with the Vikings defense effectively shutting down Arizona's defense, and the half ended with the score 28-3.

The second half did not start off well at all for the Vikings offense and the quarterback especially, with several botched throws and pulling back on Peterson. This quieted the crowd who were starting to see yet another double digit half time lead blown apart. The offense was limited to scoring twice, both times field goals. However the defense was able to hold onto the lead this time and kept the Cardinals to scoring seven points (also thanks to a penalty that called back a TD pass). The game ended 28-10, with the Vikings losing streak finally over, and answered numerous questions about the Vikings, but obvious problems remain. What exactly have the Vikings learned and what problems remain?

The "Secret" to the Vikings Winning Games

The Vikings did one thing differently during the first half that they should have been doing since Week Two, when the passing game was shown to be full of holes in Week One: they ran Adrian Peterson over and over again. It is no secret that AP is one of the best runningback's in the NFL, and he showed his skills again last Sunday. Showing his speed, agility and plain old toughness, Adrian Peterson turned the Cardinals defensive line and linebackers into his personal crash dummies. Scoring three touchdowns in the first quarter was what won the game for the Vikings. AP is the biggest weapon that they have, and he needs to be utilized more. Developing the offense around the run game, and throwing passes to break up the pattern, will lead to more Vikings points and wins.
