I don't even fault him for the 1st INT, but the 2nd was inexcusable!

Look at those bunched formations. Vikings make it much harder to run when they allow the defense to crowd in like that.

Apparently, our new receivers can't get open, either... wasn't that the story last year?

Have we targeted Jennings more than once? I'm not buying the "can't get open" thing anymore.

I would be worried, but Detroit seem to implode right after a couple of good plays.
