Ah The Emmett Smith rule. Always glad when that happens to remind everybody of what a jerk he was.
Cost the Browns an opening-day game victory about 20 years ago against the Chiefs when Dwayne Rudd tossed his helmet on the last play of the game in celebration, which made it no longer the last play of the game. Two of my brothers are still furious on that one to this day.

What's the deal with Minnesota? I swear they've had some b******t phony years like 3 times in the last 6 or 7 years. Heading to 14+ wins but the reality is they are an 8 win team at most.

Just like the curse Kyle the knee Williams cast over us, Gary Anderson's miss carries over Minny. It seems inevitable at some point they will crumble as they always do. I'm cheering for em for my dad's sake and Bill Brown is from my home town.

Always liked the Bud Grant teams of the '70s.....'75 was the other killer year (besides '98) for Minnesota, as that team was right there, and the Cowboys pulled off the miracle in the Divisional round - think they had a better shot against the Steelers than the previous season. We'll never know.
Of course, things change.....then came the '80s......and then the ridiculous Walker trade......time always marches on.

Difference is, they actually had a good team in the 1970's under Grant and Tarkenton.....it's just that the Cowboys in the NFC and Mia/Oak/Pitt in the AFC were better.
This Vikings franchise of the last 10 years have had records that are nearly equal to those Vikes teams from 50 years ago, the but the talent is nowhere close. I mean....comparing Fran Tarkenton to Keenum/Darnold?
