For the first lesson we are going to, appropriately enough, start with the first Vikings game ever. The date was September 17, 1961. The Vikings, the newest expansion team in the NFL, were going up against a team that had been a cornerstone in the NFL for quite some time: The Chicago Bears.
George Shaw started the game at quarterback for the Vikings, but after an ineffective first quarter he was benched by head coach Norm Van Brocklin for 3rd round draft pick rookie Fran Tarkenton. Tarkenton finished the game with 4 passing touchdowns and 1 rushing touchdown to lead the brand new Vikings to a 37-13 victory. Comments |
