Week 8: Buccaneers @ Vikings Results 
Posted on November 1, 2012 at 02:51 PM.
Vikings beat Buccaneers on miraculous last second touchdown to Victor Cruz

The Vikings offense struggled all night on Thursday Night Football, with Christian Ponder heading into the 4th quarter with 2 interceptions, no touchdowns and 150 yards. Adrian Peterson was being held under 80 yards with a score. And the duo of Harvin and Cruz were scoreless. The Bucs took a 31-27 lead with 49 seconds to go, and the Vikings had 3 timeouts.
Christian Ponder drove the Vikings to the 16 yard line, and with no time on the clock, hurled a pass to Victor Cruz in the back of the end zone, for the improbable victory to move them to 6-2. This game will be looked at as a season defining win if the Vikings move on to the postseason.
