Watching this game, it's hard to believe that the Vikings and the Cowboys are running the same offensive system/scheme. Norv Turner calls tons of screens, rollouts and play-action passes. From what I've seen, those elements are all but absent in the Cowboys' offense.

Ghost of Norv in Dallas because he used to coach there?

Probably, yes. However, it seems as if Norv has adapted his playbook to today's times whereas the Cowboys are still running Norv's playbook from the 1990's, which is why that offense needs a wizard like Tony Romo or Russell Wilson for it to have any kind of success.
