Game Notes

Vikings knock off the Cowboys 21-10.

Minnesota capitalizes on two early Dallas fumbles and never looks back. After a fumble on the opening kickoff, the Vikings convert it into a 4-yard TD pass from Fran Tarkenton to Chuck Foreman. Tony Dorsett fumbles on the next possession, setting up Rickey Young's 4-yard TD run.

After Dallas steadies itself with a FG drive, Tarkenton guides Minnesota on a drive late in the 1st half, resulting in 12-yard TD pass to Sammy White for a 21-3 halftime lead. Tarkenton expertly guides the Vikings' attack with Foreman rushing for 101 yards and catching 5 passes for 33 yards, while Dallas malfunctions, turning it over 4 times.
