Colts game thread
Wow shitty start
@"JimmyinSD" said:That's where I'm at. Very happy for the fortitude shown and the win, but if we are supposed to be one of the elite teams in the league (by record) then how are we spotting Matt Ryan and an awful Colts team a 33-0 lead in our building with the division crown on the line? We've just had stretches this year where we've looked really, really bad despite our record and that still has to be a concern going forward. We don't know what we are getting from week to week even this late in the season. Certainly would like to see some consistency@"Vikergirl" said: https://twitter.com/WillRagatz/status/1604235820277309441?s=20&t=JIiamY-RYJDlb9zNIPglkQ I am glad they won, and that comeback was epic and I will never forgetting being at that game, but honestly I thought it was pretty pathetic for a 10-3 team looking to lock up their division to come out and spot the opposing team (that has likely already started cleaning out their lockers and making their offseason travel arrangements) 30 damn points, at home. And as much as I was pissed st the Donatels D, the wonder kids decision making and O was just as culpable for that pathetic first half.
Most passing yards in a game - @Vikings franchise history:

490- Tommy Kramer (Nov 2, 1986 vs WAS)
460- Kirk Cousins (Earlier today in his team's NFL record 33-point comeback win over the Colts)
456- Kramer (Dec 14, 1980 vs CLE)
449- Joe Kapp (Sep 28, 1969 vs the Baltimore Colts) pic.twitter.com/9rVZ714M6v
So, I saw the first half and had to go the funeral home to plan a funeral during the second half. I actually thought it was fitting to go plan a funeral after that half. Then I get back after the game ends and find out they won. What came to my mind? "A resurrection? I better check on the deceased."

I just read this entire thread for the first time…

#Vikings cornerback Chandon Sullivan arguably should've had two scoop-and-score TD's against the Colts.

This play in the 4th qtr initially had the runner ruled down, calling back the TD leading to beverages being hurled onto the field at U.S. Bank Stadium. @KSTPSports pic.twitter.com/3dH1usqKpZ

Those polite Vike fans were bombing beers and waterbottles onto the field at one point. I dont remember if it was after the 2nd scoop and score was reversed or if it was when Gilmore wasn't ejected after the obvious targeting of Jefferson.
The ‘75 snowball game in Buffalo saw Chuck Foreman getting hit in the eye.
Bud Grant pulled the team off the field before the game was over. Just the 11 defensive guys were on the field and Paul Krause nearly had an INT.
Apparently there was a plan just in case and all the D players had positions they would play on offense if they did get a turn over.

@VG will know exactly what I mean.
Any Vikes fan should know about the curse of the whiskey bottle.
Still cringe every time I am reminded of this.

refs should have been pelted with something after the pathetic action of 14 points being stolen from the Vikings.
