Minnesota Vikings

The Minnesota Vikings choked so bad against the Indinanapolis Colts on Sunday it blew my mind. It was one of the biggest chokes i had ever seen in my long career of watching football. The vikings were totally dominating them the entire game but could not score a touchdown to save their lives. Every Minnesota drive consisted of one, maybe two, nice runs by Adrian Peterson then an awful third down pass by our quarterback Tavaris Jackson. It was basically Adrian getting all the yards. And when we would finally get it down in to the red zone they coudn't finish. Every time, they would just have to settle for a field goal.
Meanwhile the Colts weren't playing very good either. Peyton Manning wasn't looking like his usual self. The very first drive he threw an interception to Antoine Winfield and he didn't get much better after that. Peyton and the rest of the Indinapolis offense didn't do anything until later in the game when their experience came through. Peyton connected with Reggie Wayne for the tying touchdown. And a little later Adam Vinaterri kicked the game winning field goal through the up-rights. The vikings had lost a game that seemed like it was impossible for them to lose.
