Who Was the MVP?

I'll have to go with Choupique on this one. Without the 12th man in the huddle there would have been no farve pass, no interception.

Trudat, early in the game the questionable calls favored the Vikes in a big way. Later they favored the Saints. It balanced out in the end.

i blame the handoff on favre because he let the ball go without having peterson take it from him

Excellent. Thats true. I'm surprised more haven't said this. I guess its because most of us old farts haven't played since HS.

Al Bundy syndrome perhaps?

he played well but his biggest isssue coming out of college was his ability to tackle in the open field......

had he stopped berrian we wouldnt have had to go into overtime

I agree. Once again, I went with Thomas. Just my opinion.

But I have to point out, that Porter wasn't the only one missing tackles in this game. It looked like they went to the Mike McKenzie School of Arm Tackling.
