Matt Ryan is definitely getting flashbacks from his blown 28-3 lead in Super Bow LI after blowing a 33-0 lead on Saturday morning. Minnesota QB Kirk Cousins finished with 460 passing yards. The leagues premier wide receiver in Justin Jefferson had a quiet 123 receiving yards. Jefferson was outshined by his teammate, K.J. Osborn, who had a career high 157 on the day. Vikings RB Dalvin Cook had 95 yards, 60 of them coming in the teams biggest play of the game that helped send it to overtime.
However, all eyes have been on Indianapolis interim head coach Jeff Saturday, who has only had experience at the high school level. The controversial play caller seemed to be having his best coaching game yet in the first half, but Kevin O'Connell had different plans.
The Vikings came out of the locker room with an energy that Saturday and the Colts had not anticipated, which lead to a 35-3 second half score. Even though the Vikings are able to leave the arena with a historical win, they know that they will need to start off with more energy when they face better competition in the playoffs.
