To beat the Vikings, all you have to do is stop Randy Moss, Cris Carter and now, Daunte Culpepper. Luckily for the league there is one man who has shown the ability to do that with ease: Dennis Green.

DETROIT 14, at NEW ORLEANS 10

Saints’ newly installed West Coast offense had only 252 yards and 13 first downs, leaving fans to wonder whatever happened to those good old days when Mike Ditka was coach.

PHILADELPHIA 41, at DALLAS 14

Troy Aikman misfired on all five of his passes and was sacked for 30 yards in losses on his other four attempts before leaving game with the ninth concussion of his career. Not remembering this game could be a good thing.
