It wasn't a gaudy game statistically for running back Ray Rice, but he did contribute to the Ravens' 29-26 win over the Minnesota Vikings by generating 109 total yards from scrimmage. Rice rushed for 67 yards on 17 carries for a 3.9 average, his second-highest average per carry of the year during a mostly quiet season. He also caught five passes for 42 yards.

There are few aspects of the Minnesota Vikings' 30th-ranked defense that jump off the game film in any particularly positive way. Veteran defensive end Jared Allen is a notable exception.
