Good article and good write-up on AJ, but they neglected to mention early INT drop that could have changed the momentum of the whole game.

Yeah football is weird that way you go back and even in blowouts there are usually 3-4 plays that if they go the other way the whole game changes. In our game you had the dropped INT, the one they mentioned with Housler wide open, the line drive punt that gave them another easy TD in the first quarter.

Just look at the Bears last night that game is a total blowout loss if not for 2 plays in the first half by Cutler. He's about to be sacked by 2 guys and gets out and hits Hester(who appeared to come from out of bounds?) to get a first and goal. Next play he again avoids a sack and throws a perfect lobbbed ball for a TD pass. In our games Kolb has been getting sacked or having to throw those away. If Cutler doesn't make those 2 plays, that game is never even close, instead they actually lead at the half until Detroit pulled away.

We just don't have anybody making those plays right now.

The Viking announcers really like Jefferson also. I suspect that they were probably told by lthe team how good he was. They raved about a couple of the touchdown saving plays that he made on Adrian Peterson. But then again they thought that Levi was a solid tackle. Go figure.
