For me, it wasn't until this play.  So glad Philly kicked to AT.  He was such a stud again yesterday, and this grab was just as important as his sweet TD.

Weird day for me. Completely didn't expect Minnesota to get a W, but when they were up 20-6, I just really felt like they were going to win. I thought it might be closer, but the Vikings were the better team yesterday.

Agreed.  The Vikings dominated most of the game, but 2 missed FGs and such kept the game too close.  I really didn't like the "give them 12 yards a pop" defense on that last drive either.  Hoped they would at least make them earn it.

But it felt in control most of the game.

about 4:30 central time,  that is when I finally quit working and pounded back a tall whiskey, on an empty stomach,  before starting to watch the game.... I havent drank on a completely empty stomach for a while.. forgot how fast it kicks in with nothing to soak it up and slow it down....

as far as the game.... about the time the clock looked like this 0:00  4Th Quarter.

p.s. Not sure how you feel about PFF.com and their grading systems, but one guy on the Viking's offensive line keeps grading out highest each week. Yep....this guy:

That swing pass fumble to Roc about killed me.  Thought for sure that one blew it, but the D stepped up big and Kirk got enough offense to get that late FG.

Being up 20-3, you'd think you could coast to the finish line for an easy win.  But, I should know better, right? B)

It's the Vikings...I don't get comfortable until 0:00.
or a 34 point lead at the end of the 3rd

that should be proof right there that there is no way they watch every play....or even the games.

Same with me.  I didn't relax until I saw that Thielen had control of the ball and was down.  His bobble before that about gave me a heart attack because I felt that if the Eagles got the ball there, we were going to lose the game.

I was worrying aboutout a fumbled snap and Eagles recovery on the kneel downs...

This win expelled some demons that built up the past couple weeks.
