I thought the play was to go for the FG and make the lead only 8 points. But I don't mind the results!

I did say earlier that they were due to be stopped on more 4th down plays.

Huge defensive stand.

Play smart here. Hold on to the ball. 3 runs and punt would be fine.

If we can keep them from scoring before the two minute warning, it will become an onside kick situation.

Can't lose Rhodes to an extended injury.

They're saying just cramping for Rhodes?

If we weren't so caught up in the emotions of the game, we could enjoy it for being an instant classic. It looks like two really good teams playing a hard fought battle.

Statistically speaking, it is very effective. That's why they do it.

That's my thought too. I really wanted the Vikings to blitz on the 4th and 10, but the smart play was to force more time off the clock and prevent the big play. Regardless if they score now, they'll need an onside kick.
