and Oh well. Hello welcome to the Minnesota Vikings absolutely

refused to have any type of normal regular football game and they will not under any circumstances no matter what happens

finish out a game without insane and completely unnecessary drama.

That is where we stand as we are here on Purple Insider Matthew Collar,

Paul Hoduanic filling in for Sam Ekstrom.

Sam got sick actually during the game had to go home so he's doing okay but Paul

filling in here in the post game show and Paul I guess I'll just start out by

saying that if you were looking for entertainment value,

this once again delivered.

If you are an objective observer

who just sat down at the old TV and said,

all right, NFL, entertain me.

Well, the second half certainly did that. If you were hoping that your team could

actually take a 29-0 lead and just end it and walk out of here, feeling good about about themselves going into a little mini break.

If you were hoping that this team would show a sign of being able to close someone out, finish a game,

put together a complete 60 minutes on offense and defense, then you were severely

disappointed. And I am conflicted at the end of this game because in one way they played extremely

well on the offensive side and because in one way they played extremely well

on the offensive side and defensive side in the first half.

Ben Rolflesberger looked like it was time to retire.

And then in the second half, it was a complete and utter meltdown and if the ball does not go off the fingertips of the Pittsburgh Steelers receiver in the end zone, we are talking about not only just another wow, they're not clutch and meltdown every time.

We're talking about an historic meltdown
