re: #38 William Barnett-Lewis

That’s one thing I’ve been trying to find out about all night. Did Peterson at least get his record?

No, he was 9 yards short. Ponder used Peterson for several short yardage passes, including a TD, but those don’t count towards a rushing total. It was an effective strategy, though, and the win was the critical thing.

Unfortunately, that win means the Vikings get to go to Green Bay and play the Packers next week at Lambeau Field. So Green Bay will still likely have the last laugh.
