That was brutal. Will the Thrill kept Minnesota in punching distance but you need some TDs in the red zone. Would have been a completely different game. Penalties and turnovers AGAIN just killing the team. The refs and New York messed the Vikings up: https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/46652755/vikings-tj-hockenson-ridiculous-td-was-overturned

Not sure what Wentz was thinking a few times, made a few truly boneheaded plays. So many squandered scoring opportunities. Carson couldn't hit Jefferson with the side of a barn. And Hurts had so much time....brutal. 

I mean....like I said yesterday before the game....anyone excited about continuing to watch Wentz? For the last place Vikings in the NFCN? And additionaly: if you get to play the Saints, Jets, Raiders, Dolphins or Titans, kiss the schedule maker because those teams SUCK out loud.

Of all the shitty passes Wentz made, this was the one that heated me up the most. It's a 45-yard completion, only because Addison is really good. JJ McCarthy throws a TD here? Hell, Jenny McCarthy throws a TD here. 

Still can't get over the fact that this game was close. Any time you can play the defending world champions to the gun, despite 4 quarters of what had to be the best QB performance they've seen from Hurts in two years, combined with the most bizarre, head-scratching day we've seen from a QB in over a decade, you're doing something right somewhere. Just not quite sure what that is or where it is though.


Its was probably one of the more frustrating games I've watched recently: if Wentz throws just 5 decent passes...FIVE....Minnesota wins this game going away. I kept watching the Vikings get to the red zone, time after time....and here comes Reichard. Even with Hurts having 15 seconds most of the time in the pocket, Minnesota could have won and I can't explain why. What the hell Wince was doing on 5-7 throws was dumbfounding. If JJ would have made those throws, fans would have gone supernova. 

And as I sit here, I have no idea what this team is....other than 3-3.
