I made it through most of the 3rd quarter. Its regular games like this that I. as a Vikings fan. hate the Vikings.

Dobbs showed why he is a back up QB in the NFL. He has his moments, but Cousins would have likely won this game last night.
maybe....but I am also tired of watching kirk get sacked when the pocket collapses (like it did ALOT last night)
Yeah, Kirk does not extend the play, throw off a defender, and complete the TD pass the like first score last night.
exactly. And to be honest, I still think that play where the defender Superman launched helmet first into Dobbs to get the fumble was a penalty. Dumb play call by the way.
and if Mattison could hang on to the football later, we wouldn't even be having this conversation right now.
the last thing is I don't think people understand how hard it is to completely move across the country and play with people that you haven't even met or practiced with all in a couple weeks. So I am going to give him some time. But until the vikings can put together an offensive line, we need someone like Dobbs.
But, as a team, you can't turn the ball over like they did last night and expect to win on the road.
If Mattison can not fumble, and we get Jefferson back, we are going to be tough to beat.
You can't lose the turnover battle 3-0 in a NFL game. Plain and simple. Fumbling issues from the first few weeks came back Sunday night. They win the game if they simply hang onto the ball
Neutral observer here, but it looked like the were scared to death of getting beat deep, so they let Perine of all people beat them in the check down game.
That corner also made one of the worst plays I've seen on the Sutton TD. In real time Wison just chucked it up there and it looked like he had perfect coverage then just mistimed his jump.
The defense was just trying to keep everything in front of them, knowing Denver needed a TD. On the TD that Denver did score, it looked like it would be an easy INT as there was a defender who appeared to be in perfect position, but got out jumped.
Sutton is a gifted and tall receiver and Wilson threw it almost perfectly, so I'm not going to rag on the DB. That was just a great throw and catch. My bigger gripe is letting Perine run wild down the damn field to put them in that position. After the first check down throw, you'd think Flores would have schemed for that.
Sutton has some hops to him. When the ball was in the air, it sure looked like it would be an easy INT. Sutton was able to jump high to snag the ball before the DB could put hands on it
What happened apparently is you’ve not got to experience the ‘joy’ of a Vikings game in the last three decades!
Like all fans, I have 1998 and 2009 tattooed in my brain.What happened apparently is you’ve not got to experience the ‘joy’ of a Vikings game in the last three decades!
My dad always said prevent defense only prevents you from keeping the lead. "This has been working all game, we should defenitely change it now."
1998 took the left while 2009 took the right . Now nothing can hurt me. Sterile to Vikings disappointment.
Good catch. Not sure where I got the tomorrow from. He’s out this weekend’s game.
Hard to believe Cordarrelle Patterson is in his 11th year. Falcons seem to be using him primarily as another running back
