- The Vikes run defense was ridiculous (in a good way) holding the Seahawks to a franchise-low 4 rushing yards. Yes, the ’Hawks were forced to throw early and often (given the deficit), but by stopping the run in early critical situations – including causing a 9-yard loss on 3rd and 2 – the run D paved the way for its team to blow the game open. Before falling behind 21-0, Seattle’s rushing total was negative.
- The team played 4 full quarters. With a 21-point lead, the offense went 4-and-out on somewhat questionable play calling to start the second half, but did not succumb to another second-half letdown. The team played at a high level on offens
e, defense and special teams all day. Even after backups took over at several positions, the Vikes still put 7 more on the board, while holding the Seahawks to 6 points and denying a 2-point conversion attempt.
Oh, and if that wasn't enough, Spongebob was in da house!
