So was Winfield. Just saying, if he was supposed to be that type of guy, he needs to shore it up.

Honestly. Will we ever have a good defense? I am sick of it. Same issues every year. Piss poor tackling, blown coverage, and stupid mistakes.

Looks like we are going to need TDs on every drive.

The odd part is the ref said ".....as a result, 10 seconds will runoff, please reset the clock...." It sounded like the Vikings weren't even given the option. Not sure though.

Hard to put that on Zimmer - guys are in position to make plays, and they miss the tackle.
