Based on what? That you want it to happen?

It'll get worse.
granted, it was a terrible 2nd quarter after we dominated the 1st but this game is far from over as long as our coaching staff can make the required adjustments at half time. This is the game the coaches have to establish that they have the ability to make the kind of changes that can bring us back. Lets just wait and see what happens. Go Vikes

Hey, we had a 9 point lead and the Redskins didn't cry about it. They just scored two touchdowns. Why not us?

Why so negative? We are only down 8, and 1 touchdown came from a fluke fumble/int/?. I ain't scurred.

Some of you need to step off the ledge... We're down 8 pts. guys against the Skins... it's not an insurmountable deal. 30 Min. of football left to play.

It's only 8 points, but the Redskins get the ball 1st in the 2nd half, and the Vikes aren't a team built for comebacks. Redskins have the Vikings's D on their heels. Another 10 minute drive for a TD will likely be the game.

They've made successful adjustments in every game this year. Why would this one be the lone exception?

Thats true but its just so frustrating when I thought we were a better team than the Skins and to start out the way we did .

It's how you finish that matters.

Last year was always a tale of two halves in that we'd dominate in the first half and suck in the 2nd...we've flipped that script a couple of times this year, this could still be one of those days.

How many games have we won where we were down, on the road, by 8 points to win, since Fraizer took over?
