Allow this writer to hearken back to the days of yore -- 1998, to be precise -- when the football gods came down and manifested themselves as the Minnesota Vikings offense. That was the year that Minnesota, led by Randall Cunningham, rookie sensation Randy Moss, Cris Carter, John Randle and many others, went 15-1, shattering the single season team point total while surrendering the fifth fewest points in the league.
