Wide receiver Sidney Rice had six receptions for 141 yards and tied a playoff record with three touchdown catches to help the Minnesota Vikings to a 34-3 victory over the Dallas Cowboys in the NFC divisional playoffs Sunday. He had scoring catches of 47, 16 and 45 yards from Brett Favre to help the Vikings (12-4) earn their first trip to the NFC title game since 2001. It was the 15th time in NFL history that a player has hauled in three touchdown receptions in a game. "It feels good," Sidney Rice said of the record. "But at the same time, I'm just happy for this team. We came out and fought hard, all three phases. It was a great team victory for us." Source: Associated Press
Congrats to Sidney Rice. He went from being a possible bust to a stud this year. It's nice to see any player do that. It was nice to see Miles Austin to the exact same thing. Dude had a great season and had a great playoff game. Keep doing your thing Rice.
