Re: Wright penalty:
@mattvensel Wallace with the nice grab over the middle. Then he throws the ball toward the pylon like a bowling ball and gets flagged for delay of game.

Sometimes, But we are the Vikings. Better to see no time left in my opinion. we keep stopping the clock. We could have runs this down to seven minutes

It's below seven minutes.....we ran the ball seven times on that drive.

We ate up a lot of time on that drive. A TD would have basically been a back breaker.

No problem with the play calling there. Just Kalil being an idiot, again.

He got beat once by Ansah for what would've been a sack. I'll take that out of Kalil vs. Ansah every game.

2 mistakes by Kalil in 2 games. Not bad.

He had a bad hold where we could have scored, and a personal foul, again where we could have scored. Big penalties. Both times, same guy.
