I remember a game last year when Adrian Peterson fumbled and then got angry and ended up torching the Packers for almost 200 yards. I don’t know why I thought of that. ---

Now, see, _that_ was pass interference. ---

IF the Vikings win this game, it will be because of their defense. The Saints offense has had numerous chances to put this game out of reach, and has failed repeatedly to do so. ---

I want the Vikings to win, but I don’t want the Saints to lose. I’m actually cheering just as hard for either team, which is weird. ---

This is a sloppy game. They need to put a handle on the ball. ---

> [@gonzomax](#): > > This is a sloppy game. They need to put a handle on the ball. It is a close game, and the Vikings D is playing well, but you’re right. Between the Saints’ penalties and the Vikings’ turnovers, neither team is looking good. ---
