The Minnesota Vikings are coming off a tough loss in Seattle to the Seahawks. In a matchup of two playoff-caliber teams, the Vikings found themselves on top of the Seahawks by seven points at the half.
However, Minnesota then ended up being down by three scores after a disastrous third quarter. After Kirk Cousins led the Vikings to getting within four points of Seattle, Minnesota had the ball in their possession with a chance to drive down and take the lead late in the game. But they just couldn’t pull it off in the end.
It was a moral victory for the Vikings but there were plenty of reasons why they lost their matchup with the Seahawks.
