Vikings none too happy with Rams, plenty happy with fourth straight win

The Vikings moved into a tie for first place in the NFC North, but Mike Zimmer was too upset with what happened Sunday to give it much attention.

The Minnesota coach saw his quarterback, Teddy Bridgewater, get knocked out of the game early in the fourth quarter against St. Louis on what he believed was a cheap shot. The Vikings won 21-18 in overtime at TCF Bank Stadium on a 40-yard field goal by Blair Walsh, but Zimmer barely acknowledged Rams coach Jeff Fisher during a postgame handshake.

Bridgewater was knocked out of the game with 13:29 left in regulation after he gave himself up on a slide following a run.
