2004, the W in Lambeau, and what current “Fans” can learn about taking talent for granted

There are few moments in Minnesota Vikings lore that are as iconic as the January 9th, 2005, “Mooning” of the crowd at Lambeau Field by Viking legend Randy Moss. That moment had everything that exemplified Moss’ final season in Minnesota. Moss was injured that season, missing a game for the first time since his rookie season (he ended up playing 13 games that year), which lead to his first sub-1,200 yard receiving season in purple. Despite that, though, he still had 13 touchdowns and was the focal point of an offense that had the best season out of Daunte Culpepper (who had 39 touchdowns and could’ve been MVP if not for Peyton Manning’s 49 touchdown campaign).
