A flashback to the Metropolitan Stadi

um days" for LumixWhile social media Garrett Bradbury Jersey Mens , by and large, is relatively awful, every once in a while you come across something that’s actually kind of informative.This happened last night when one of the columns in my Tweetdeck popped up with a random retweet of something illustrating an incident involving the Minnesota Vikings that I, honestly, hadn’t heard of until now.The Vikings were hosting the San Francisco 49ers in December of 1969. The pre-game festivities featured a few different entertainers, but there was one in particular that I’m guessing anyone that was in attendance that afternoon still hasn’t forgotten.Here’s a retelling of the story from Joe Soucheray, then a writer for the St. Paul Pioneer Press.I guess this is as good an argument for a stadium with a roof on it as any.Now, 1969 was before my time as a fan of the Vikings, in large part because 1969 was also before my time of being alive on this planet. So, I was wondering if any of the “old guard” among our readers remembers this incident. I’m sure it would have been something to see. The Minnesota Vikings secured its second consecutive victory. Minnesota is now with an above .500 record after beating the Arizona Cardinals 27-17. The Vikings improved its record to 3-2-1 Football Olisaemeka Udoh Jersey , and is in second place in the NFC North (Green Bay plays on Monday Night Football against San Francisco). Now that we are six games through, here are three takeaways I gathered after the Arizona game:Defense is coming aroundLook, I’ve seen tweets on twitter about how the Vikings’ defense is the worst in the league based off a couple of horrendous performances (get over yourselves). I wonder how those people are feeling after the defense allowed 10 points to the Cardinals, and only allowed six points through three quarters against Philadelphia. For the second week in a row Minnesota’s run defense has allowed under 100 rushing yards. Two weeks ago against the Eagles, the defense allowed 81 rushing yards, and against the Cards, only allowed 61 yards off of 20 carries. The Vikings have only given up one rushing touchdown in the past two weeks. Although Cardinals’ quarterback Josh Rosen threw for 240 yards, the defense made sure not to let the Cards get in the end zone, which is the point. Minnesota sacked Rosen four times. Danielle Hunter had a pair, Harrison Smith and Mackensie Alexander both recorded one. Also Youth Garrett Bradbury Jersey , Anthony Harris stepped up big, literally. He jumped in front of a pass intended for Larry Fitzgerald, and managed to grab his first NFL interception. The offense is fineDespite a banged-up offensive line, the offense still seems to know how to get points on the board. Sure, the offense has a few hiccups throughout the game, but not as many as some would think. Through six games, Kirk Cousins has thrown the ball for about an average of 333 yards a game. He has 1,921 passing yards, 12 touchdowns and only three interceptions. Now, people can say what they want Mike Hughes Jersey , but Arizona has a pretty respectable defense, besides the run game. Cousins still managed to throw the ball 233 yards, even though the run game ran for a total of 199 yards. With Dalvin Cook out, trusty veteran Latavius Murray ran the rock 24 times for 155 yards, and took one to the house. That was Minnesota’s first rushing touchdown this season, he even threw in a nasty stiff-arm to get in the end zone. Even rookie Mike Boone broke loose for a 20-yard carry. Treadwell is showing his worthLet’s be honest, Laquon Treadwell has come a long way since that disastrous performance against Green Bay. He was targeted six times in that game, and only caught two passes. Since then, by each game, his consistency seems to be progressing. After that performance Anthony Barr Jersey , he’s been targeted 19 times, yeah that’s right, captain Kirk doesn’t give up on anyone. Out of those 19 targets, he’s caught 15 of them. Against Arizona, he was targeted four times, and caught every pass thrown his way. He managed almost 10 yards a catch with 38 receiving yards. Treadwell is only one reception away from tying his season high in catches. I really want to see Treadwell become something , especially after seeing what he did at Ole Miss in the SEC. It looks like he’s coming around, along with his confidence. Slow and steady wins the race, I guess?
