Minnesota 20 New England 10

Alfred Anderson
Minnesota opened the scoring in first 5 minutes with a FG after NE muffed a punt on their own 21. Neither team could do much remainder of quarter. In 2nd quarter, a Doug Flutie fumble was returned for a TD to give the Vikes a 10-0 lead as NE continued to dig themselves a hole. The Patriots weren’t ready to quit, though, as they battled back to a 10-7 score after a 79 yard, 7+ minute drive capped by a John Stephens 3-yard TD plunge. NE tied the game at 10 with a Staurovsky FG to open the 3rd quarter.

Score stayed knotted at 10 until the 4th quarter, when the Vikes drove 82 yards highlighted by Alred Anderson’s 14 yard TD run. A Flutie INT on NE’s next drive gave the Vikes a 20-10 lead they would not relinquish.

Good game called by Brian.
