the moss toss behind the head to williams is def my top, and also in the playoffs awhle back i cant remember who it was against, but it was the first round and we thru a swing pass to Moss and he out ran everyone, for like a 65-70 yd touchdown, he out ran guys who had the angle on him, it was sick

I'm pretty sure that was against the Saints. That play was sick!

The Moss to Moe lateral was very cool. My favorite play(s) though were Moss's three touchdown catches agains the 'Boys on Thankgiving Day.

I think that one is called the "music city miracle."

That's up there along with the 56 yard FG by Edinger this year and a couple years ago on our very first play of the season against the Cowboys Daunte dumped the ball to O. Smith for a long TD.

I can't tell you the exact play, but I always liked the Robert Smith scores from 60-70 yards out. I loved to watch him run. What is it, he holds the most rushing TDs from 70 yards out in (fill in the blank)_____________. I can't remember if it was a Viking record or a NFL record?????? If it was career or in a season, anyone??????

Robert has a career average of 27.2 yards per rushing touchdown. This is an NFL record.

Robert is the only running back in the NFL to have at least one 70+ run in each season from 1997 - 2000.

I knew he was good but dang! He was this good? Just imagine if Robert didn't retired early...what might have been.
