Victory in their grasp, the Vikings throw it away

They got a career day from their star running back. The prized rookie receiver provided a breakout performance that conjured comparisons to Randy Moss. And the opponent seemed hellbent on giving the game away.

The Vikings still lost.

On second thought, maybe they should Tank for Trevor at this point, if this is how it’s going to go.

If they can’t win when Dalvin Cook rushes for 181 yards, the offense scores 30 points, Justin Jefferson plays like a star and they take a 12-point lead in the third quarter at home in a desperation situation …

Good grief.
