Vikings-34 Arizona-10

Adrian Peterson scored one of his three touchdowns vs Arizona
The Minnesota Vikings are finally in the win column, even though it took until week 5 to get it. The ballgame started out very good for the home team with the Vikings putting up 28 points in the first quarter. Adrian Peterson was off and running from the start scoring three touchdowns in the first quarter alone. Asher Allen helped set up one of those touchdowns with his interception of Arizona quarterback Kevin Kolb. Brian Robison, whose sack and forced fumble, which was recovered by Jared Allen, set up a bright spot for quarterback Donavan McNabb who ran in a 4 yard touchdown.  Arizona managed to get some points before the half with Jay Feely kicking a 51-yard field goal. Beanie Wells also put up the loan touchdown for the Cardinals running one in from 2 yards out. After that the Vikings would not give a inch shutting out Arizona the rest of the way. Ryan Longwell added 2 field goals from 26 yards and 53 yards. The Vikings will next play the Chicago Bears on Sunday the 16th at 7:20 CT and that game can been seen on NBC.
