Commanders Post at The Warpath - View Single Post - Vikings Run Up The Score: Brooking vs. Pat Williams

Personally, I think Minnesota was pissed at how everyone in the media had given the Cowboys a pass and pretty much wrote off the Vikings. At the post game press conference, Childress mentioned how he told his team to just shut up and let all the cowboy coranation hype go by. He also said it was hard getting 50 athletes to "stifle it" after continually hearing about these "Tasmanian devils from north texas that are just going to rip through Minnesota".

And this from Vikes DT Pat Williams:
“They overlooked us,” Pat Williams said, “and that’s fine. Basically, that’s how they ride down there. I don’t blame them, I guess. They’re young. They can be cocky. They’ve got a cocky owner, so that’s how they ride. But they came into this dome, and it was hostile for them. ”

While it may not have been the "classiest" move, I think that final TD was big giant F*** you to the media and Cowboys from a team that had to listen to a bunch of crap all week long.
