Vikings' Win Dedicated to Randy Moss, Falcons Snap Losing Streak

Justin Jefferson led the Minnesota Vikings to a 30-12 win over the Chicago Bears on Monday Night Football, using the victory to honor his idol, Randy Moss. Moss, a Pro Football Hall of Famer, recently announced he is battling cancer. The game opened with fellow former Vikings receivers Chris Carter and Jake Reed holding up Moss's jersey during the coin toss, with fans chanting "Randy! Randy! " amid a sea of #84 jerseys. Jefferson displayed his love for Moss by dedicating his first-quarter touchdown to the former player. "I definitely wanted to give a tribute to him on one of my touchdowns, " said Jefferson. "It was just great to have it done in the first quarter and the first one. " The Vikings now share the best record in the NFC with the Detroit Lions and Philadelphia Eagles. Meanwhile, the Atlanta Falcons ended a four-game skid with a 15-9 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. The Falcons defense shone, forcing three turnovers and blocking two punts. Despite giving up a late touchdown, Atlanta held the Raiders to just nine points, handing them their 10th straight loss. Falcons head coach Raheem Morris highlighted the importance of the win, saying, "For us to go out there and find a way to win. . . you got to find a way to win and you gain confidence through getting wins.
