Minnesota Vikings take 'Can you win a game in the first quarter?!' to the extreme, pull off largest comeback in NFL history
The fumble stood but the touchdown was disallowed, and the Vikings turned it over on downs. Indy could’ve salted the game away with a couple of first downs, or kicked a field goal. They went for it on 4th and 1 on the outer edge of field goal range but Matt Ryan was stuffed on the QB sneak, giving the Vikings renewed life. Dalvin Cook took it to the house on a 64-yard screen play, and TJ Hockenson tied it up on the two-point conversion.
With seven seconds left, Greg Joseph kicked the winning field goal to cap off the greatest comeback in NFL history. The previous mark was the 35-3 lead squandered by the Houston Oilers against thenearly thirty years ago to the day in the AFC Wild Card round. Frank Reich was the Bills quarterback that day and he’s probably happy that he wasn’t the Colts head coach today.
As long as the Vikings keep themselves one game ahead of the San Francisco 49ers in the win column, Minnesota will be the #2 seed. If by any chance the Seahawks qualify for the postseason, they would most likely be the #7 seed taking on whoever finishes as the #2 seed. On one hand, this game may not mean much to us as Seahawks fans, on the other hand... it just might matter?
Whatever the case, what a comeback by Minnesota. They’re 11-3 with a +2 point differential, but they’re tops in the league as far as heart, determination, and late game drama.
