Puzzling 1972 Vikings and Colts Fall From Grace
The 1972 season leaves the Minnesota Vikings and Baltimore Colts with surprising nonplayoff finishes. Both teams battled injuries and weak defenses, while quarterback upheavals and running games contributed. Colts face Miami aiming for a historic 14-0, Vikings meet San Francisco needing only a win or tie to claim the NFC West.
Jimmy Thomas Targets Key Role for 49ers Clash
Redwood City up date shows Jimmy Thomas as a pivotal figure as the 49ers host Minnesota at Candlestick Park. Saturday's game hinges on health of fullback Larry Schreiber and Ken Willard with a potential two halfback attack featuring Thomas and Vic Washington after a 20-0 win over Atlanta. Thomas powered a 22 yard run and aims to capitalize on improved passing after recent drops against Los Angeles. If San Francisco wins they reach the playoffs. a loss keeps Atlanta and Los Angeles hopeful. Minnesota remains out of contention, ranking eighth in run defense but first in pass defense, amid a decline from last year's stout Purple People Eater unit.
