17, New Orleans 13: MINNEAPOLIS, MN (AP)--
Advertised
as a track meet, '03 Saints and '04 Vikes engaged in an "all day"
defensive struggle. Minny's Brian Russell (pictured to the left)
poached a medium slant during NO's first possession and raced
45 yards to open the scoring. Saints would respond with their best
drive of the game (11 plays-80 yds) to tie it up. Both D's dictated
terms from there on out. "Purple and gold" limited Deuce McAllister
to a manageable 70 yds on the ground and disrupted Saints passing
game with 6 sacks on Brooks. Not to be outdone, NO's defense held the vaunted Viking passing attack in check. Rated # 2 in NFL (Yards Passing 2004), Culpepper, Moss and company would complete but 14 passes for 108 yds. In the end, this battle of field position would go to Bill Robinson and '04 Minnesota 17-13. '03 NO coach Stewart would say, "Bill consistently made the right call at each key juncture, we had some chances and couldn't get it done". (contributed by Dave Stewart) |
