Kirk Cousins picked off on the first possession of the second half, his second pick today, I do not trust him to deliver in big games and this is why.

[Salacious Kitty]

Murray and Stafford are both no-gos in a sucky late game that just got even suckier. 

[Lamb18]

Dalvin Cook just had a 81 yard touchdown! And Justin Jefferson had a good block on a guy!

[Lamb18]

Vikings could still win but I fear Buffalo is a better team. Watch everyone else in the NFC North win. 

[twoods]

I hope Josh Allen isn’t hurt. Should have gone for the points instead of forcing it for a stupid interception, and if he’s hurt then equally dumb.

Great interception by Peterson! It looked like Allen was crying, lying face down on the ground. It hope it was tears of frustration, not pain. 

[Xeliou66]

Going for it on 4th down was a fucking stupid call by McDermott - if you kick the FG you go up 13 and force the Vikings to score 2 TD’s. Instead, Allen throws a pick, he may be hurt now, and the Vikings need a FG and a TD to tie it. I don’t care what the analytics say, that was stupid. And they didn’t even try to run for the 2 yards despite having 3 chances for it.

Well, that's gonna be hard since Detroit is playing Chicago.

Like @Magog, I hate having to root for the Packers today.

[Lamb18]

Cousins says, "See Josh? I can run, too."

Yay!!!! C J Ham scores!!! He's one of my favorite players. I met his wife once and she is super nice.

I hate rooting for the Cowboys today.

I temporarily forgot about Detroit vs Chicago. Bears were ahead, last I heard. Boo!

[Lamb18]

Another doink from Joseph.

Vikings could still win this.

No matter who wins, this is a decent game.

[bluegirl147]

Steelers win 20-10. First game all year my heart hasn't pounded. They looked good.

[Bastet]

Wow.  I don't care about either team, but this Vikings-Bills game has wound up being quite interesting.

[Fukui San]

What a catch by Jefferson on 4th and 18!

Just a little less improbable than the Edelman Super Bowl deflected catch.

[Salacious Kitty]

Are the Vikings really going to win this? Wow.

[twoods]

Yeah that catch was ridiculous. Can’t do anything about that. Kudos to the Vikings for not bowing out.

[Lamb18]

They have to get Ingrams away from Cousins.

[Fukui San]

Well this is dramatic.

[Bastet]

What the actual fuck was that play call on fourth down? 

[Fukui San]

Literally 4 inches to go.

[Bastet]

Well, then again, a more logical one on their second shot at it didn't work, so ...

[Salacious Kitty]

Holy cow. Stuffed at the goal line.

[twoods]

Oh my goodness. Insanity.

[Fukui San]

It's amusing to talk football with two black cats and a lamb.

[twoods]

Sean McDermott gets away with his boneheaded calls yet again. 

[Xeliou66]

Holy fuck, what a game!! TOUCHDOWN VIKINGS AS THE BILLS FUMBLE AFTER THE GOAL LINE STAND!!

[Fukui San]

I don't effin' believe that!

[Magog]

God Damn it!!

[bluegirl147]

Omg. That was unexpected

[Fukui San]

They shoulda done the snap the ball outta bounds for a safety thing!

[twoods]

Oh man, fumble? Never mind. Lol. Oh Bills, just gotta laugh at this point.

OMG, this is wild!  Now the Vikings finally get the goal-line TD -- as a defensive play.  Which is, of course, under review.

My grey catness feels left out.

Holy gamoley.  I switched away after the 4th down plays.  Thanks to y'all, I've switched back.

[Salacious Kitty]

No fucking way! Crazy town.

[Lamb18]

I can't believe it!!!!! I'm ready to cry! I'm glad Kendricks got it. He's one of my favorite defensive players.

If the ball's not in, we still have a chance.

[Fukui San]

Man, if that fumbled snap has consequences come playoff seeding time...

[meowmommy]

I was thinking of course, you can't take a victory formation from the 1 yard line, but Moose was right:  they should have taken the safety and punted from the 20.

[Lamb18]

YES!! YES!! YES!!

[Fukui San]

Well, 41 seconds to go for more craziness.

[twoods]

Oh it will. The Dolphins look very good and can win the division. 

[Xeliou66]

Holy fucking shit, Vikings up 30-27 with less than a minute left. Bills still have a chance but have no timeouts. Craziest game of the season.

[ctlady]

Giants need to send a gift basket to their defense and penalty riddled Texans for this win 

[meowmommy]

How much does that missed PAT matter now?

[Xeliou66]

Holy shit, Bills tie it at 30 as Allen leads them on a great drive. I’m not sure Davis had possession of the ball on that one catch though. As Moose just said on the broadcast, this is the most amazing two minutes of football I’ve ever seen.

[twoods]

Overtime, insane. I’m surprised the Vikings didn’t challenge that catch, or is it because it’s inside of 2 minutes?

Yeah, not in their hands to challenge.

Exactly! Why do the Bills' doinks send the ball through while the Vikings' doinks don't?

Yeah, there should have been a booth review.  The Vikings couldn't challenge.

This is crazier than the 13 seconds with KC.

Feel like this is the Heidi Bowl.  They're cutting away.  Sunday Ticket better lift the blackout on my end.

[Lamb18]

I don't think Vikings have had any overtime this year.

[Xeliou66]

Going to OT in Buffalo.

In the other early games, the Titans beat the Broncos, the Dolphins beat the Browns, Lions came back and beat the Bears, Giants beat the Texans, Chiefs beat the Jags and the Steelers beat the Saints.

Vikings win the coin toss.

[Bastet]

Dammit, normally I'd be happy to say goodbye to a Vikings-Bills match to switch to the start of a Rams game, but in this case, I'd rather hang around for OT and then join what will likely be the week's most anemic game in progress.
