re: Watching-how did we lose to the Vikings?

well for one, the Vikings had way more success running the ball against us.

Cousins didn't have to do a whole lot.

missed a FG

two turnovers

penalty on a fake punt

i guess there was plenty of blame to go around.

only getting a FG after the early fumble recovery was also just a huge letdown. It was a lot like the year before against the Rams when Davis got an interception deep in Rams territory but we only kicked a FG.

maybe the team was also too over confident? Who knows?

not having Davenport and Rankins on defense was also big.

the season before Davenport was playing through injury and Rankins missed the Rams game.

this is still mostly a young squad though so we will see how they regroup.
