lol. It's cool. Must be happening to everyone. I was wondering why no one was correcting you. :lol: I'm over here like, "What is this guy talking about? He completely forgot an entire game!" Well, I'd like to forget the entire season, so I get it. :D

The enemy is the clock. Another 5+ minute drive. This system STINKS. The Vikings have had the ball less than 10 minutes in 30 minutes.

Well we haven't forced a punt at home since the 4th quarter of the Panthers game ... or 7 quarters ago.

This Defense has a better chance to force a 2 and out than a 3 and out.

Just make sure the Vikings are driving the car and you'll be fine. They couldn't sustain a drive to save their own lives.

Does the team play better on the road this season? Man, they look lost at home.
