And it is four in a row for 20 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:53,840 Speaker 6: Kevin O'Connell and the Minnesota Vikings. They beat the Atlanta 21 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:57,280 Speaker 6: Falcons yesterday thirty one to twenty eight. They now improve 22 00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:00,880 Speaker 6: to five and four through nine games. And this is 23 00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:02,920 Speaker 6: the first time that they've had a winning. 24 00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:04,280 Speaker 1: Record in twenty twenty three. 25 00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:07,480 Speaker 6: So from all those fumbles and weird losses starting out 26 00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:09,680 Speaker 6: oh and three, they go four and one through October, 27 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:12,240 Speaker 6: and they find their way to victory on the road 28 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:15,520 Speaker 6: in Atlanta yesterday. And it was a game that started 29 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 6: with a fifth round rookie and Jaren Hall under center 30 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:22,360 Speaker 6: for the Vikings, and it ended within a recently acquired 31 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:26,840 Speaker 6: quarterback in Joshua Dobbs, who barely knew anybody's name, didn't 32 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 6: know most of the plays, and he found his way 33 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:34,240 Speaker 6: to victory, found this team's way to victory. It's unbelievable 34 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:37,240 Speaker 6: some of the things. It's nothing if not always entertaining 35 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:40,800 Speaker 6: for a team very much in the NFC playoff race, 36 00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:43,640 Speaker 6: a wild card team. The Vikings currently are at five 37 00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 6: and four. Next up the New Orleans Saints. Some injury 38 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 6: concerns and things that took place yesterday. I'm going to 39 00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:52,920 Speaker 6: play back on the other side of this next segment 40 00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 6: a nice portion of Kevin O'Connell's press conference with the 41 00:01:56,480 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 6: media from earlier this afternoon, highlighting and getting some updates 42 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 6: and some of the players that were. 43 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:02,960 Speaker 1: Nicked up yesterday. 44 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:06,160 Speaker 6: Hey, Justin Jefferson's able to come off ir and maybe 45 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:09,320 Speaker 6: start practicing and playing again, even as soon as this 46 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:10,680 Speaker 6: weekend against the Saints. 47 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:11,680 Speaker 1: Is that gonna happen. 48 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 6: You're gonna hear some updates in some conversation and clarity 49 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 6: there from the head coach. But first, in what is 50 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:21,520 Speaker 6: just yet another weird one the Minnesota Vikings and the 51 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:25,639 Speaker 6: Atlanta Falcons yesterday, let's rewind to the action. The Minnesota 52 00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:29,400 Speaker 6: Vikings defense gets to start yesterday as they get on 53 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 6: the field and they force a seven play twenty two 54 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 6: yard drive that ends in a punt. So we like 55 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:37,360 Speaker 6: the way that started. And then it's time for Jaren Hall. 56 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 6: Jaren Hall comes in tough spot for him last week 57 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 6: against Green Bay after the unfortunate achilles injury to Kirk. 58 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 1: He gets a couple of series. 59 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 6: There's a stripsack in the mix, cool third down conversion 60 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:52,520 Speaker 6: on his next possession to TJ. Hawkinson. So you didn't 61 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 6: like some things. You liked some things, but now he's 62 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 6: had an entire week to start well. Vikings offense goes 63 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 6: three and out. Falcons would respond a five play thirty 64 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 6: four yard drive. Nice long connection from Taylor Heineke, the 65 00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:09,080 Speaker 6: former Viking. There were all sorts of connections and backup 66 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:12,080 Speaker 6: qbs in the mix yesterday. Former Viking never took a 67 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 6: snap in a game, but certainly a member of the 68 00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 6: team for a couple of seasons twenty fifteen and twenty sixteen. 69 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 6: Taylor Heineke hits Cadaril Hodge and they settle for a 70 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 6: young Way coup fifty plus yard field goal. Fifty two 71 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 6: yarder that makes it three to nothing halfway through the 72 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:31,519 Speaker 6: first quarter. Now second possession, Jaren Hall still under center. 73 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:34,359 Speaker 6: It's nine plays, It's seventy four yards. 74 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 1: And a couple of nice connections too. 75 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:39,560 Speaker 6: Johnny Munt with a catch and run and Alexander Madison 76 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 6: for nearly fifty. 77 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 5: Jaron Hall with an empty backfield, four man rush. He's 78 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 5: gonna fade one right. 79 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 7: Cott took a thirty five thirty Hangles took. 80 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 5: The left and is taken down inside the twenty. Alex 81 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 5: Sander Madison with a long catching run forty nine yards 82 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 5: first down for the Vikings. 83 00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 6: Vikings offenses movie and Jaren Hall is orchonstrating all of it. 84 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:03,440 Speaker 1: Later in the drive, they get a first and goal 85 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 1: at the one. 86 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 6: Then they move backwards, still having trouble running the ball 87 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 6: inside the five. 88 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 1: The Vikings offenses and it's third down. 89 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 6: Jaron Hall is trying to close the deal with his legs, 90 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:17,040 Speaker 6: and for the second time in two games, tragedy strikes 91 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 6: the quarterback position. 92 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 5: Hall shot downe three receivers left to right, takes the 93 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,040 Speaker 5: snap four man rush. 94 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: Hall steps up looking to run. 95 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,600 Speaker 7: Paddle to the metal leap through the end zone, and 96 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:30,799 Speaker 7: he came up short. 97 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,200 Speaker 1: He got smacked at the goal line. 98 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:36,600 Speaker 5: Jaren Hall slow to get up, and many members of 99 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:39,520 Speaker 5: the Vikings training staff have come out on the field 100 00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 5: to chat with the back, with the quarterback who used 101 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 5: to be the backup but now he's the start. 102 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 1: I was so excited for better or worse. It could 103 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:48,719 Speaker 1: be great, it could be awful. 104 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:50,920 Speaker 6: I was excited to see Jaron Hall take the reins 105 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:53,120 Speaker 6: of this offense with a full week of preparation and 106 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:54,359 Speaker 6: see what the kid has. 107 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:55,159 Speaker 1: But he suffers a. 108 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:59,600 Speaker 6: Concussion on his second series yesterday and he's forced out 109 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 6: of the mix from that play, and the Vikings are 110 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 6: then forced to settle for a field goal from the 111 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 6: one yard line because they're still trying to scramble and like, hey, 112 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,480 Speaker 6: Joshua Dobbs, we did not intend on you playing today. 113 00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 6: Now we got to get you ready to handle the offense. 114 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:17,040 Speaker 6: It's three to three with about two minutes left in 115 00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:20,480 Speaker 6: the first quarter. Vikings defense does their job. They force 116 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,720 Speaker 6: a punt from the Falcons, and now we're seeing Joshua 117 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:26,839 Speaker 6: Dobbs plays all those games for the Cardinals earlier this year. 118 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:30,920 Speaker 6: Career backup is Joshua Dobbs, brought to the Vikings via 119 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 6: trade on Tuesday, and as I mentioned earlier, jokingly but 120 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 6: kind of seriously, he doesn't know everybody's name. He hasn't 121 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 6: taken snaps from Garrett Bradbury yet cadence in terms of 122 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:43,919 Speaker 6: calling the plays at the line, getting everything organized. 123 00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:44,720 Speaker 1: This is all new. 124 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:48,279 Speaker 6: This is all on the fly, and it started off 125 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 6: a little bumpy. 126 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 5: Third and twelve from his own five and a tie game, 127 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 5: Dobbs takes the staff he's looking out to the left 128 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 5: from the end zone, steps up added to safety. The 129 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,919 Speaker 5: Falcons have trapped josh Dobbs in the end zone for 130 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 5: a safety and have taken The Braves have taken a 131 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 5: five to three lead over the Plans. 132 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 6: Yes weird score five to three Falcons early second quarter, 133 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:13,560 Speaker 6: and the safety means now the Vikings have to actually 134 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:15,920 Speaker 6: punt the ball back to the Falcons. So the Falcons 135 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 6: go on offense. They have a ten play drive cam 136 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 6: Binde them nearly had a pick on this drive by 137 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 6: the way, couldn't close on it. Taylor, Heineke's gonna give 138 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:26,200 Speaker 6: you one or two balls every single game, and you 139 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 6: need to take those. 140 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:27,839 Speaker 7: Now. 141 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:31,240 Speaker 6: We did later but early on an opportunity to keep 142 00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 6: points off the board. Falcons go up eight to three 143 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:37,800 Speaker 6: after another young Way cool field goal about midway through 144 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:42,039 Speaker 6: the second. Now, second opportunity for Josh Dobbs and this 145 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 6: Vikings offense. You heard bumpy before and it only got 146 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:47,040 Speaker 6: rockier this time. 147 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:48,679 Speaker 1: Dobbs under deep trump protected. 148 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 5: Okay, Now he scoots away from the pressure and he 149 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,479 Speaker 5: looks to throw the wall and it came out and 150 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 5: it's picked up by Lorenzo Carter inside the ten to 151 00:06:56,320 --> 00:07:00,039 Speaker 5: the five, stopped at the three yard line. So the 152 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 5: Vikings have lost another fumble. The Vikings now have lost 153 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 5: eleven pumpholes this year. 154 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 1: The defense down yeah. 155 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 6: Fumbles have been a problem for Josh Dobbs half the 156 00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 6: season with the Arizona Cardinals. Earlier this year, he had 157 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 6: eight lost fumbles, and in just his second possession in 158 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 6: Purple he's got one under his belt. Now for us. 159 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 6: So Falcons take over. It's first and goal at the 160 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 6: one yard line and they have some self destruction to 161 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 6: them Atlanta does they immediately get a false start? It's 162 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,560 Speaker 6: Chris Lnstrom. Now they're backed up to the six yard line. 163 00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 6: And props to the defense yesterday keeping the Falcons to 164 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:41,200 Speaker 6: field goals instead of touchdowns. You see the final score 165 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 6: line thirty one to twenty eight, high scoring game, but 166 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:46,600 Speaker 6: the defense stood talk in a few spots, including this one. 167 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 6: They keep the Falcons to a young way who field 168 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 6: goal inside the five and it's eleven to three late 169 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:56,560 Speaker 6: stages of the first half.

How about cam Akers with the assist? 186 00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:45,520 Speaker 6: It was a great block by cam Akers, who sadly 187 00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 6: would leave the game later on with a devastating season 188 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:51,960 Speaker 6: ending achilles injury. But he was in the game there 189 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:56,199 Speaker 6: making plays and Alexander Madison catches a touchdown pass. 190 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 5: Christian Jackson in motion to the right. kJ Osborne out 191 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 5: of the game. Dobbs under center, trailing eleven three play action, 192 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:06,600 Speaker 5: boots out to the right. He's looking for Madison, pep 193 00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 5: pell Madison touchdown. 194 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:11,599 Speaker 1: Leander. 195 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:15,679 Speaker 6: That touchdown comes with less than a minute to go 196 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 6: in the half and after the extra point, a lot 197 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 6: of people wishing they would have went for two, but 198 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 6: the extra point makes it eleven to ten in favor 199 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:27,520 Speaker 6: of the Falcons at halftime. Vikings excited, Vikings fans excited. 200 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:29,319 Speaker 6: I know, I'm sure the coaching staff was in the 201 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:32,480 Speaker 6: locker room trying to continue to give that crash course 202 00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:34,240 Speaker 6: to Joshua Dobbs on the offense. 203 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:36,640 Speaker 1: Vikings fans are like, all this stuff is happening. 204 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 6: We got injuries. kJ Osborne leaves with a concussion as well. 205 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:42,680 Speaker 6: I mentioned Cam Akers who would leave earlier with an 206 00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:44,080 Speaker 6: even more significant injury. 207 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:46,720 Speaker 1: His team is hurting, and somehow they are very. 208 00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 6: Much still in the mix with an opportunity to beat 209 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 6: the Atlanta Falcons. But in yesterday, all the cool stuff 210 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,400 Speaker 6: that you're going to get to hear Joshua Dobbs doing 211 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:58,320 Speaker 6: on the field that came with some of the less 212 00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 6: perfect moments, including. 213 00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:01,960 Speaker 1: First possession of the second half. 214 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:05,920 Speaker 6: It is another fumble loss by Joshua Dobbs, giving the 215 00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:09,880 Speaker 6: Falcons the ball. Young way kup with another field goal 216 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:13,000 Speaker 6: on the day after the Vikings defense stands tall, and 217 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:15,319 Speaker 6: that's kind of how the third quarter started. You get 218 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 6: the fumble from Dobbs, then both teams exchange field goals. 219 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,680 Speaker 6: The Vikings go on an eight play sixty one yard drive, 220 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:24,079 Speaker 6: takes about four or five minutes off the clock. So 221 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 6: midway through the third it is fourteen thirteen, so not 222 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 6: a lot has changed there. But then every once in 223 00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 6: a while with this defense and Brian Flores and how 224 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:36,960 Speaker 6: good everything's been going with that defense, when you blitz well, 225 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 6: sometimes you can get caught. And John hu Smith caught him. 226 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 1: And for Atlanta six penalties forty two yards. Heinike back to. 227 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:49,080 Speaker 5: Pass girls right taught John hu Smith fifty forty farside 228 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 5: twenty touchdown Atlanta a sixty yard touchdown Heynikey Tojhanu Smith 229 00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:00,840 Speaker 5: and the Falcons have taken a twenty fifteen lead. 230 00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:03,719 Speaker 6: Extra point makes it twenty one to thirteen with just 231 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:05,560 Speaker 6: under seven minutes to go in the third quarter. 232 00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 1: Getting a little sweaty. 233 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 6: Now, Vikings offense responds with the three and out, so 234 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:10,080 Speaker 6: you're starting to count the clock. 235 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 1: These weird up and down Falcons have an. 236 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:15,920 Speaker 6: Eight point advantage, and you got Joshua Dobbs still trying 237 00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 6: to figure out what you actually got in him, and 238 00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:22,480 Speaker 6: that's where you stand. But Vikings defense a Caleb Evans 239 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:25,599 Speaker 6: very first play of the ensuing Falcons possession. After the 240 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:29,240 Speaker 6: punt punches that ball out, Josh Mattelis recovers it, and 241 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 6: one thing this team's been really good at doing over 242 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:34,640 Speaker 6: this four game win streak is turning turnovers into. 243 00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:37,439 Speaker 1: Touchdowns, and that's exactly what they do. 244 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,960 Speaker 5: Josh Dobbs goes out of the shotgun, puts Brandon powllin motion, 245 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:44,560 Speaker 5: poor receivers, dops looks left, shakes the shoulders, gets away 246 00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:47,400 Speaker 5: from the pressure, right, pumps on a Falcons linebacker, shakes 247 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:51,679 Speaker 5: the tackles to fifteen to ten. Just down, Josh Dobbs. 248 00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 5: Let's go twenty one nineteen Atlanta. It's an eighteen yard 249 00:11:58,679 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 5: touchdown run. 250 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:05,959 Speaker 6: The new kid in town, Shosh tops turnovers into touchdowns. 251 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:09,560 Speaker 6: The athleticism of Josh Dobbs to cap off that six play, 252 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:12,840 Speaker 6: forty yard drive. Looking at the two point conversion, it's 253 00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 6: Tristan Jackson. 254 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,320 Speaker 1: In the end zone for the two. And it's twenty 255 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:18,319 Speaker 1: one twenty one, which is a couple minutes to go 256 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:21,160 Speaker 1: in the third quarter. Now it's the defense's turn. Let's 257 00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:21,720 Speaker 1: force a punt. 258 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:23,960 Speaker 6: Let's get the Vikings offense back on the field, keep 259 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 6: this train moving and take the lead. But forget the punt. 260 00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 6: How about Byron Murphy just takes one away from Taylor Heineke. 261 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,679 Speaker 1: John new Smith in motioned to the right, Heinekee back 262 00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:36,480 Speaker 1: to pass nnerception. There it is we knew what was coming. 263 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 5: Hyron Murphy turns it up to the thirty carside twenty five. 264 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 5: Hey's not a pounds at the twenty two yard line 265 00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:47,720 Speaker 5: and the Minnesota Vikings, in the game tied to twenty one, 266 00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 5: have all the momentum on this midnight train to Georgia. 267 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 6: Vikings ball deep in Atlanta territory, but the offense gets stuck. 268 00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 6: Cam Akers, with a nice play to move the chains, 269 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:02,720 Speaker 6: gets some inside of the red zone, but then once again, 270 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 6: not only is he hurt on this possession, but they 271 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:09,840 Speaker 6: are left with another Greg Joseph field goal. Fourteen minutes, 272 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 6: eighteen seconds left on the clock, Greg Joseph good from 273 00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:16,800 Speaker 6: thirty one yards and the Vikings have their lead twenty 274 00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 6: four to twenty one. Now fourth quarter teams exchange a 275 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 6: couple of punts, but then this was a moment where 276 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:24,959 Speaker 6: at some point you thought the Falcons might be able 277 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 6: to pull away. They went on a thirteen play seventy 278 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:31,319 Speaker 6: nine yard drive, took seven minutes off the clock, and 279 00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 6: right around the two minute warning, the Falcons grabbed the 280 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:36,000 Speaker 6: lead back. 281 00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:37,240 Speaker 1: Seconding goal from. 282 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 5: The five for the Atlanta Falcons, Offset I left behind 283 00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:41,680 Speaker 5: high to keep back through out here he has learning 284 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 5: inside the five rinds his way into the m zone. 285 00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:48,959 Speaker 5: Touchdown and Atlanta Falcons it is Tyler ral Jeer with 286 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 5: his third touchdown this season. 287 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:53,719 Speaker 6: And now it's twenty eight twenty four Falcons just over 288 00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:56,720 Speaker 6: two minutes to go.
