description

Vikings quarterback Daunte Culpepper enjoyed one of the most memorable games of his career when he and the Minnesota squad visited New Orleans to face the Saints in the 2004 season. With the Saints continually scoring to cut into the Vikings lead, Culpepper and the Minnesota offense had no choice but to keep slinging the rock all over the field to maintain momentum and control of the game. By the time it was all said and done, Culpepper had thrown for 425 yards and five scores, which set and matched his career highs, respectively. Minnesota held on and won this one over New Orleans, 38-31, in an epic back-and-forth battle on Oct. 17, 2004.
