News: Jackson threw for 77 yards with a touchdown in Sunday's 35-9 win over Seattle. [+]
Impact: Brett Favre owners shouldn't worry, Jackson only received playing time because the game was well in hand. In fact, Jackson took all the snaps in the fourth quarter and made some plays, including a 34-yard touchdown pass to Sidney Rice. Outside of a blowout situation, Jackson won't see the field much because Favre is as durable as they come, but it was probably good for Jackson's confidence to make positive things happen with the starting unit.

News: Sidney Rice had a strong outing in today's 35-9 win against Seattle, as he hauled in six passes for 89 yards and two touchdowns. [+]
Impact: The third-year pro remains hot, as he averages 128 receiving yards over his last five games. He also scored his first touchdowns over that span today. ( Fanball - Sun. Nov 22, 2009) |
News: Adrian Peterson helped lead the Vikings in today's 35-9 win over the Seahawks, as he gained 82 rushing yards on 24 carries. He also caught four passes for 16 receiving yards. [+]
Impact: Peterson had a good day for Minnesota, but performed below expectations for fantasy owners, as he failed to reach paydirt or 100 total yards. He had a three-game streak snapped of scoring a touchdown. ( Fanball - Sun. Nov 22, 2009) | |

Favre makes milestone start as Vikes top Lions Brett Favre is thankful to still be playing and winning in the NFL.
Adding a league record to his overflowing collection is merely a bonus.
Favre set another mark with his 271st straight start in the regular season, then threw two touchdown passes to help the Minnesota Vikings beat the Detroit Lions 27-13 on Sunday.
"Every game I play in at this point, I'm pretty grateful," he said. "I know how difficult it is."
The Lions, meanwhile, know how tough it is to simply win a game. Full Story

News: Amidst his late game heroics on Sunday, Matthew Stafford suffered a left shoulder injury, according to ESPN's Chris Mortensen. [+]
Impact: He was in visible pain after throwing the game winning touchdown against the Browns, and will undergo an MRI on Monday. He does not have a broken collarbone as earlier feared, however, and is "iffy" for Thursday against the Packers. ( Fanball - Sun. Nov 22, 2009) |
News: Initial X-rays on Stafford's left (non-throwing) shoulder came back negative Sunday, the Detroit Free Press reports. [+]
Impact: Coach Jim Schwartz said that Stafford, who was in obvious pain at the end of Sunday's win over the Browns, was having more tests, adding that it was too early to tell whether Stafford would be able to turn around on the short week to play Thursday against Green Bay. ( RotoWire - Nov 22, 2009) |
News: Pettigrew made six catches for 72 yards and scored the game-winning touchdown in Sunday's 38-37 win over Cleveland. [+]
Impact: Pettigrew caught a one-yard score from Matthew Stafford with no time remaining to complete the come-from-behind win. Stafford finished with 422 yards and five touchdowns, an encouraging sign for Pettigrew and the rest of the offense, even against the defensively-challenged Browns. ( RotoWire - Nov 22, 2009) | |
