With a new play caller in place www.seahawksfootballauthentics.com , the Minnesota Vikings recommitted to running the ball. And Dalvin Cook proved again his capability, when healthy, of taking over a game.Cook had a career-high 136 yards and two touchdowns on a season-high 19 carries for the Vikings, who stayed in control of a spot in the playoffs with a 41-17 victory over the Miami Dolphins on Sunday."We just wanted to go out there and get back to playing like how we know we can play," Cook said.Latavius Murray added 68 rushing yards and a score on 15 of the team's season-high 40 attempts. The Vikings (7-6-1) converted each of their first three drives under interim offensive coordinator Kevin Stefanski into touchdowns, using a back-to-the-basics approach to build a big lead and lean on the defense down the stretch."He knows the type of guys he has around him," Cook said. "We're going to give it 100 percent every play for him. He dialed it up today."Anthony Barr and Danielle Hunter each had two of the nine sacks of Ryan Tannehill , totaling 71 lost yards for the Dolphins (7-7). Miami came crashing down from the euphoria of defeating New England with that double-lateral 69-yard score on the final play last week capped by Kenyan Drake's race across the goal line.Minkah Fitzpatrick returned an interception 50 yards for a touchdown in the second quarter and Kalen Ballage scored on a 75-yard run on the first snap of the second half to bring the Dolphins within 21-17. But on their next five possessions they netted a staggering minus-27 yards on 16 plays."We've got to look in the mirror and ask ourselves how we want to finish the season," Drake said.Tannehill finished 11 for 24 for 108 yards, as the Dolphins took just their fifth loss in the last 17 games he has started and saw their wild-card bid in the AFC take an even bigger hit. Baltimore, Indianapolis and Tennessee all won to move to 8-6 and leave Miami in ninth place in the conference race."Obviously, things are out of our control at this point, but we've just got to keep playing," Tannehill said. "Win the games we have left on our schedule Seattle Seahawks T-Shirt , and whatever else happens is out of our hands."Though Chicago won the NFC North by beating Green Bay, the Vikings moved a critical step closer to returning to the postseason. With enough help, they could clinch the second wild-card spot next week.Kirk Cousins threw touchdown passes to Stefon Diggs and Aldrick Robinson to make up for the pick-six. He went 14 for 21 for 215 yards for the Vikings, who posted their second-highest score in five years under coach Mike Zimmer.QUICK STARTThe Vikings were held under 285 total yards at Seattle last week for the fourth time in their last five games, so Zimmer made a last-ditch move to try to salvage the season by firing first-year offensive coordinator John DeFilippo and promoting Stefanski to replace him. One of Zimmer's public criticisms of DeFilippo in recent weeks had been a lack of consistent commitment to establishing a running attack."I think Kevin knew what I wanted," Zimmer said, complimenting Stefanski for acting "calm and collected" throughout the week and during the game.The spark Zimmer sought was immediate, with the Vikings settling in nicely at home after two rough weeks on the road. They needed only 19 plays, keeping the ball on the ground 12 times, to cross the goal line on each of their first three possessions. Cousins, who has operated out of the shotgun for the majority of the season, was often under center while completing his first eight passes."We couldn't stop the run, and they were able to do all their play-actions off of that," a downcast Dolphins coach Adam Gase said. "The last thing we needed to happen was to get behind like that."TELLING STATSWith 202 yards Seattle Seahawks Hats , the Vikings gained the highest first-quarter total in the NFL in a season filled with prolific production nearly everywhere. It was their most points in the opening 15 minutes since a 28-point output on Oct. 9, 2011, against Arizona.Miami gave up 30-plus points for a sixth game this season and 400-plus yards for the ninth time this year.SHERELS SHINESThe special teams were sharp as ever for Minnesota, too, with Dan Bailey making all five of his extra points and both field-goal tries. Marcus Sherels set up one of those kicks with a 70-yard punt return and totaled 116 yards on five returns.INJURY REPORTDolphins: Frank Gore, the NFL's active rushing leader, hurt his left ankle on the second-to-last play of the first quarter and didn't return. ... Fitzpatrick, the first-round pick who was drafted as a safety, started at CB for Xavien Howard for the second straight game. Howard, who entered the week tied for the league lead with seven interceptions, has a knee injury. ... Backup DT Ziggy Hood (hamstring) limped off the field at the end of the third quarter.Vikings: Backup TE David Morgan (knee) returned from a four-game absence. CB Trae Waynes (concussion) was back after missing the last game.UP NEXTDolphins: Host Jacksonville (4-10) next Sunday.Vikings: Play at Detroit (5-9) next Sunday.Seahawks-Bears on Monday Night Football: Kickoff time, TV coverage, radio, ESPN live stream Seattle Seahawks Womens Hoodie , more The 2018 Seattle Seahawks regular season did not get off to an ideal start on opening week, as they lost to the Denver Broncos 27-24. They’ll look to get in the win column on Monday Night Football against the Chicago Bears, who blew a 20-0 lead on the road against the Green Bay Packers and are also 0-1. This is Seattle’s first game in Chicago since Russell Wilson’s superstar-making performance and 4th quarter/overtime heroics way back in 2012.Seattle comes into this game banged up everywhere, but especially on defense. Bobby Wagner and K.J. Wright are both out, and it looks like Tre Flowers is also not expected to play. On offense, the key man out is WR Doug Baldwin, who has a reported Grade 2 MCL tear and his timetable for a return is unknown. D.J. Fluker is out for another week due to a hamstring problem. As for the Bears, they seem to be fairly healthy, and have Khalil Mack... I know that worries you already. Rookie head coach Matt Nagy will look to exploit Seattle’s banged up defense, and also have his emerging defense shut down the Seahawks offense, which was largely mediocre against Denver.You know by now that teams that start the year 0-2 have only made the playoffs 11% of the time in the current format. Seattle made it after an 0-2 start in 2015, I doubt that’s the case in 2018.Here are all the details you need on Monday’s arguable must-win Week 2 matchup, including broadcast information, live streaming options Womens Customized Seattle Seahawks Jerseys , radio commentary, and more:TV ScheduleDate: Monday, September 17th, 2018Time: 8:15 PM ET/5:15 PM PTChannel: ESPN/KIRO-7Announcers: Joe Tessitore, Jason Witten, and Booger McFarland (sideline reporter: Lisa Salters)Location: Soldier Field | Chicago, IllinoisRadio: 710 ESPN Seattle/97.3 KIRO FM (click here for additional affiliates outside of the Seattle area)Radio Announcers: Steve Raible, Dave Wyman (Reporters: Jen Mueller and John Clayton) | Kevin Harlan and Kurt Warner on Westwood One National RadioOnline Streaming: NFL Game Pass (delayed broadcast, free 7-Day Trial) | Sling TV | PlayStation Vue | YoutubeTV | WatchESPNCurrent 53-man roster: Click hereOpponent Blog: Windy City GridironFollow Field Gulls on social media!Twitter - @FieldGullsFacebook - Field Gulls: For Seattle Seahawks News and AnalysisSeahawks regular season schedule 2018September9/9: L 27-24 at Denver Broncos 9/17: at Chicago Bears (5:15 PM PT, ESPN)9/23: vs. Dallas Cowboys (1:25 PM PT, FOX)9/30: at Arizona Cardinals (1:05 PM PT, FOX)October10/7: vs. Los Angeles Rams (1:25 PM PT, FOX)10/14: “at” Oakland Raiders in London (10 AM PT, FOX)10/21: BYE10/28: at Detroit Lions (10 AM PT www.seattleseahawksteamonline.com , FOX)November11/4: vs. Los Angeles Chargers (1:05 PM PT, CBS)11/11: at Los Angeles Rams (1:25 PM PT, CBS)11/15 (Thu): vs. Green Bay Packers (5:20 PM PT, FOX/NFL Network)11/25: at Carolina Panthers (10 AM PT, FOX)December12/2: vs. San Francisco 49ers (5:20 PM PT, NBC)12/10 (Mon): vs. Minnesota Vikings (5:15 PM PT, ESPN)12/16: at San Francisco 49ers (1:05 PM PT, FOX)12/23: vs. Kansas City Chiefs (5:20 PM PT, NBC)12/30: vs. Arizona Cardinals (1:25 PM PT, FOX)
