The Vikings win the toss and elect to receive the opening kickoff.
That was a head scratcher.  Why would you do that?   your coming off an emotional improbable win, your 8-1 and your fan base is lubed up.  instead of making it a hostile environment ,you let the cowboys take control , silence the crowd and it was all down hill from there.    so quiet you could hear the music coming from the elevators

@"ArizonaViking" said: Most of the games that I saw when the Vikings had their first offensive possession, they usually scored.  Disaster would come by later in the 3rd quarter.  KOC probably thought they could score first before Dallas made any adjustments.  Anyways, losing 40-3 this probably didn't affect the outcome of the game any.  A blowout is a blowout, if you can only muster 3 points.


Even if you kick off and play D,  you will still get a chance to play offense before they make defensive adjustments the same number of times.  Once.
