If not for Anthony Barr's heads-up pursuing defense which caused a fumble, a Terence Newsome INT in the end zone on a questionable Matt Ryan pass, and a 35-yard TD scamper, late, by Adrian Peterson, and a couple of other big plays (including a sack and goal line stand) as well, we might be talking differently today.
But as it is, the Vikings seemed to have turned into a Big Play Team. And even though Atlanta has lost four straight and 5 of their last six, the Vikings looked good yesterday. The only thing that kept the game close was those same stupid penalties that hurt us last week against Green Bay.
I'm not counting any chickens just yet as the Giants and Seahawks are going to be delivering some pretty impressive unhatched eggs in the next couple of weeks. As to the Vikings 8-3 record alone atop the division?
Oh, yeah!
But it just gets tougher from here.
Go Vikings!
