The NFL world is still buzzing about the Vikings’ “improbable” 48-30 win over the Philadelphia Sunday at the Metrodome, and for good reason: No one in their right mind would have thought the woeful Vikings would halt the soaring Eagles.

11

Receptions by Greg Jennings for 163 yards and a touchdown.

36:26
