Time in the air to score some world-renowned street food — hopefully watch a Vikings victory, too — will be about the same as it would to the Bay Area, but the location of this game is significant given Minnesota has prevailed once in its past 12 tries (including four postseason losses) at San Francisco, mining a 27-7 win in Week 14 in 2007 that was fueled by three indelible touchdowns. The first was a “thick six” produced by Kevin Williams, who intercepted 49ers QB Trent Dilfer’s initial throw 14 seconds into the game and returned it 18 yards for a touchdown. The second was a 19-yard pass from Tarvaris Jackson to Robert Ferguson, who built a reputation over six seasons in Green Bay and notched his last NFL touchdown — his only as a Viking — in this game. And, the dagger to spring the advantage to 27-nil (in the first half!) was an 84-yard dance to pay dirt courtesy Chester Taylor, who ran behind tremendous downfield blocks by Ferguson and Sidney Rice. Taylor, ultimately, outgained two future Hall of Famers in this affair in a 24-year-old version of eventual 16,000-yard rusher Frank Gore and Offensive Rookie of the Year Adrian Peterson, who ran 14 times but ledgered a Vikings career-low 3 yards. The more you know!
