With leading receiver Stefon Diggs out of the game with a groin injury, Thielen and Cordarrelle Patterson capably stepped up for the Vikings with the former collecting a 36-yard pass for the opener before Matt Asiata went over from a yard.The visitors were unable to contain Marcus Sherels who returned a punt 79 yards for a touchdown and Patterson scored on another sharp throw by Bradford, who produced another turnover-free game and deftly guided the Vikings into their bye week without a defeat.Osweiler was overmatched by Minnesotas relentless rush and coverage, finishing 19 for 42 for 184 yards, one interception and a late touchdown pass while taking four sacks.The Texans (3-2) were denied on 12 of 13 third downs and were unable or unwilling to do much other than dump off short passes. Brian Robison #96 celebrates after sacking quarterback Brock Osweiler #17 Lamar Miller only had eight carries for 20 yards during a performance by the Texans that felt a lot like the 27-0 loss at New England two weeks ago.Will Fuller wasnt targeted until the first play of the second half and had only one catch, a head-scratching fourth-and-16 call in the third quarter at the Vikings 39 that netted 4 yards on a screen play.Minnesota have a bye week coming up before heading to Philadelphia to take on the Eagles while the Texans host the Indianapolis Colts next weekend.You can watch Englands tour of Bangladesh, plus Premier League football and the British Masters on Sky Sports.

That England side retained the Womens Ashes against Australia and won both the ICC Womens World Cup and the inaugural ICC Womens World Twenty20.And double Olympic champion Holmes, who was a live guest on Tuesdays Sportswomen show on Sky Sports News HQ, hailed Englands success that year as amazing. She said: The year the England women won the Twenty20, the World cup and the Ashes in the cricket in 2009, I thought that was an amazing achievement really. Holmes won two gold medals at the 2004 Athens Olympics I think they should have been celebrated far more than they were.It was an amazing achievement. The men have never done that so for me that was a real hats-off moment. Heres a look back at some of the greatest moments in womens sport over the last 25 years.

They are dedicated to their sport and they can only beat the people they are up against. David Beckham has told Sky Sports that women’s tennis players should have pay equality with men They absolutely should get the same pay. I cant really see the rationale for saying no.With tennis the argument is that its best of five sets for men and best of three for women. But if you asked the women if they would rather have best of five or have less pay, what do you think they are going to say?They are going to say best of five. Give them the chance.
