Watch: There really is no touchdown like a fat guy touchdown White Eric Kendricks Jersey , and Linval Joseph provided one of those for us on Sunday afternoon as the Minnesota Vikings took on the Philadelphia Eagles.The Eagles had just gained a first down into Minnesota territory at the 31-yard line. On the next play, Stephen Weatherly knifed through the Vikings’ offensive line and hammered Carson Wentz. Then. . .greatness happened.The ball floated out of Wentz’s hands and into the waiting arms of Linval Joseph. Joseph knew exactly what to do with it, as he took off down the right sideline and, with the help of a couple of blocks, got the ball into the end zone for a 64-yard score.It will go down in the record books as a fumble recovery for Joseph and not an interception, per the NFL stats folks.This was the first touchdown in the career of Linval Joseph, and is the third-longest fumble recovery for a touchdown in Vikings’ history by a defensive lineman.That touchdown gave the Vikings a 10-3 lead, and they’ve expanded that lead to 17-3 at halftime.Friday Open Thread: September 28th, 2018 Good Morning!I’m setting up the thread right after the game ended Kirk Cousins Jersey , you’d think with the offense scoring 31 points the Vikings would win, but isolating a LB on a WR doesn’t seem like a winning combination if your favorite team is on defense.Lots to look at during this mini-bye on both sides of the ball.Anyway during this mini-by while we’re waiting for the next Vikings game to start we’ll continue with our open thread full of beer recommendations, nap strategies, crock pot and smoker recipes.
