Speaker 3: I'm a fan, Good evening, Welcome to Vikings Rewind. It's
Speaker 3: kfan and the Minnesota Vikings radio network. I am Nordo
Speaker 3: from nine to None and Vikings Rewind is presented by
Speaker 3: Omni Viking Lakes Awesome Hotel and you can book your
Speaker 3: stay today at Omnihotels dot com slash Viking Lakes. And
Speaker 3: if you don't want to take my word for it,
Speaker 3: ask Pa, the host.
Speaker 2: Of nine to Noon.
Speaker 3: He stayed at Omni last night after the Vikings made
Speaker 3: the late return trip home from Denver Vikings on the road.
Speaker 3: Primetime football last night but they do not return home
Speaker 3: with their sixth consecutive victory.
Speaker 2: The winning streak ends at five.
Speaker 3: The Vikings lose last night twenty one to twenty to
Speaker 3: Russell Wilson and the Denver Broncos in the Mile High City.
Speaker 3: Vikings now six and five in the season, still firmly
Speaker 3: in the playoffs. That's how muddy the NFC is this year.
Speaker 3: But they win streak ends at five, and you know
Speaker 3: what time to start a new one? A week from tonight,
Speaker 3: Vikings Monday Night Football hosting the Bears. The Broncos, meanwhile,
Speaker 3: have won four straight. And you know, this is one
Speaker 3: of those games where you hate to simplify things too
Speaker 3: far or drill something so far down to something so
Speaker 3: basic and fundamental. In a game in which the Vikings
Speaker 3: offense had seventy plays last night, they dominated time of possession. Okay,
Speaker 3: so if I told you that the Vikings offense had
Speaker 3: the ball for nearly thirty five minutes, you'd love that.
Speaker 3: What about the Vikings defense. They held the Broncos to
Speaker 3: five field goals. You'd love that they were five in
Speaker 3: the red zone last night. You'd adore that. You'd love
Speaker 3: that they were two of twelve the Broncos offense on
Speaker 3: third down, that they had less than three hundred yards
Speaker 3: of total offense in that game. You love all of
Speaker 3: those things and you'd be thinking that's a victory, right.
Speaker 3: The turnovers three turnovers last night by the Vikings offense
Speaker 3: certainly the tied turner in terms of making a win
Speaker 3: or taking a win and making it a loss. Very
Speaker 3: frustrating game, I'm sure for all involved out there, frustrating
Speaker 3: as a Vikings fan. An opportunity to continue the win
Speaker 3: streak fell short because of some takeaways by the Broncos defense,
Speaker 3: who now have twelve turnovers created by that defense in
Speaker 3: their last three games. What a run for the Broncos,
Speaker 3: and that's a story of their four game win streak.
Speaker 3: Next segment, you're going to get to hear Kevin O'Connell
Speaker 3: right after the Vikings loss and the previous five games
Speaker 3: were wins, but Ben Lieber gets the chance to sit
Speaker 3: down with him for an exclusive postgame interview that airs
Speaker 3: exclusively on Kfan. You'll hear that next segment, But let's
Speaker 3: rewind to the action where Josh Dobbs, playing in his
Speaker 3: third game for the Vikings, made his second start last
Speaker 3: night and Vikings get the ball to start this one,
Speaker 3: and as I mentioned earlier, turnovers, turnovers, turnovers. For the
Speaker 3: fifth time this season, the Vikings cough up the ball
Speaker 3: on their very first offensive possession.
Speaker 4: Dobbs shot done for the first time this game.
Speaker 2: Now TJ. Hawkinson goes under center and he tosses it
Speaker 2: to Dobbs who runs.
Speaker 4: Around the left side and countered behind the line of primit.
Speaker 2: And he dropped the ball and the Broncos have it.
Speaker 4: The opportunistic Broncos turned over the Vikings on a trick
Speaker 4: play and the bumble recovery goes to Jaquan McMillan, second.
Speaker 2: Year corner from East Carolina.
Speaker 4: The Broncos have turned over the Minnesota Vikings.
Speaker 2: A lot to sink your teeth into.
Speaker 3: On that opening drive, Joshua Dobbs actually fumbled it twice
Speaker 3: in the first three plays of the game. Very first
Speaker 3: center to quarterback exchange, josh drops the ball, ends up
Speaker 3: getting it to Madison for a seven yard run. And
Speaker 3: then on that play right there, a little bit of trickery.
Speaker 2: It was TJ.
Speaker 3: Hawkinson under center, he flips it to Dobbs. Didn't seem
Speaker 3: like it was blocked up very well. He gets absolutely
Speaker 3: crushed right at the first down marker.
Speaker 2: It was third and one.
Speaker 3: A lot of people questioning last night, Hey, third and one,
Speaker 3: just handed off to Madison, Just hand it off to
Speaker 3: ty Chandler. Maybe you do a quarterback sneak. You have
Speaker 3: a lot of options in that spot. Was the trick
Speaker 3: play necessary? Kind of gets into the territory of well,
Speaker 3: if it works, we love it. It could have been an
Speaker 3: explosive play if it was blocked up right, all of
Speaker 3: those things. Kareem Jackson, who's just returning from a suspension
Speaker 3: for the Denver Broncos, by the way, was fined like
Speaker 3: fifty grand and week five or six for just nasty
Speaker 3: illegal hits, suspended for four games, appeals it to two,
Speaker 3: comes back from suspension immediately just spears Josh Dobbs on
Speaker 3: that play, helmet to helmet, it's not called Vikings end
Speaker 3: up turning the ball over there on the fumble, and
Speaker 3: thankfully this Vikings defense came to play last night, holding
Speaker 3: them simply a Will lutzfield goal.
Speaker 4: Watts is seventeen of nineteen on field goals thirty one
Speaker 4: yard try right half snapspot Will Lutz, the former Saint
Speaker 4: nails it and the Denver Broncos have taken a three
Speaker 4: zero lead.
Speaker 3: So in some ways you're happy because the Vikings limited
Speaker 3: the damage. Still bitter, however, that you open up the
Speaker 3: game with the giveaway when you're looking at a Broncos
Speaker 3: team who have done nothing but feast on them over
Speaker 3: their winning streak. Nine turnovers created by the defense in
Speaker 3: the last two games, nine turnovers and wins over the
Speaker 3: Chiefs and Bills ten total over their three game win streak.
Speaker 2: That's an a topic into a game.
Speaker 3: When you identify super massive outlier stats like that, that's
Speaker 3: a focus, and the Vikings failed to observe that at
Speaker 3: least for the opening drive. Teams exchange a couple of
Speaker 3: ponts three nothing Broncos, and then the Vikings embark on
Speaker 3: a ten play drive, absolutely beautiful with explosive.
Speaker 2: Runs like this from Madison bike.
Speaker 4: Zoe if two on third down hand off Alexander Madison,
Speaker 4: he's encountered in the backfield, takes the tackle, breaks another,
Speaker 4: and he's backing Broncos to the twenty took up fifteen.
Speaker 4: Alexander Madison came to play tonight baby fourteen yard run
Speaker 4: first down to the Vikings deep in the first quarter.
Speaker 3: So early in the game, you try a trick play
Speaker 3: doesn't work, turn the ball over. This time third and one,
Speaker 3: they just handed off to Madison. He goes for fourteen
Speaker 3: or fifteen yards and the Vikings are in business. And
Speaker 3: on the first play of the second quarter they capped
Speaker 3: it off with a touchdown bird and short from the
Speaker 3: Broncos three and Dops goes play action, rolls out to
Speaker 3: the right, Jonathan Cooper's.
Speaker 2: All over him. Dobbs goes down to his knees to
Speaker 2: the end zone.
Speaker 5: Touchdown, Josh Dobbs to Josh Oliver and the Minnesota Vikings
Speaker 5: have taken the lead six ' three And they had
Speaker 5: Josh dead to rights, but.
Speaker 4: He's so strong he wouldn't go down and the Vikings lead.
Speaker 3: And there's some of that Obs magic now on the
Speaker 3: play he rolls out probably could have easily found Alexander
Speaker 3: Madison for a touchdown, so he didn't have the dramatics
Speaker 3: on the boundary as he had to shake off a
Speaker 3: defender to then find Josh Oliver for the touchdown. But
Speaker 3: in the end at six points, Vikings lead seven to nothing.
Speaker 2: After the extra point, then they.
Speaker 3: Force a three and out by the Broncos offense and
Speaker 3: are right back at it with nine plays another fifty
Speaker 3: five yards and big plays like this to TJ.
Speaker 4: Hawkinson, two receivers left, temper rushes, four dobs, great drop,
Speaker 4: he's still in the pocket. Now he's just gonna heave
Speaker 4: it to a wide upen Hawkinson caught up to fifteen chop.
Speaker 2: Down at the.
Speaker 4: Ten by Coreem Jackson. Twenty nine yard hit to an
Speaker 4: uncovered TJ. Hawkinson and it's person in Gole, Minnesota.
Speaker 3: Sadly, the Vikings couldn't convert that into a touchdown. They
Speaker 3: were two of four in the red zone last night.
Speaker 3: If they get six on either of those two missed
Speaker 3: opportunities in the red area, then if you're doing the
Speaker 3: simple math, then you translate.
Speaker 2: That into a Vikings victory.
Speaker 3: But they settled for a short Greg Joseph field goal
Speaker 3: ten to three lead late stages of the first half,
Speaker 3: Broncos respond couple of explosive plays, one to Jerry Judy,
Speaker 3: one to Courtland Sutton. They get on the board with
Speaker 3: another field goal, so now it's ten to six, and
Speaker 3: there was a moment where Vikings had the ball. It
Speaker 3: was third and short in Broncos territory. They throw the ball,
Speaker 3: it's incomplete, and then they punted on fourth and one
Speaker 3: ends up being a touchback. Russell and the Broncos able
Speaker 3: to convert another field goal right at the buzzer of
Speaker 3: the second quarter to make it ten to nine at
Speaker 3: the break, and the Vikings defense back on the field
Speaker 3: with that one point lead to start the third quarter,
Speaker 3: and they force another punt, and they force another punt
Speaker 3: because DJ Wantam in the mix, Daniil Hunter in the mix,
Speaker 3: and these guys were making plays.
Speaker 4: Second and seventeen from the eighteen and Wilson's out of
Speaker 4: the shotgun. It's a screen left and that thing has
Speaker 4: blown up immediately at the fifteen yard line by Daniil Hunter.
Speaker 4: Hunter was able to capture McLachlin for a loss of three.
Speaker 4: So for Daniel Hunter, that is his second tackle for
Speaker 4: loss of this game, sixteenth this season, which leads everybody
Speaker 4: in the NFL. It's third down, and how about DJ
Speaker 4: Wantum Listen takes the snap on third down looking left,
Speaker 4: steps up.
Speaker 2: Hey sacks Russell Lostam was sacked.
Speaker 4: At the eighteen yard line.
Speaker 5: Dj Wantum, DJ got him.
Speaker 3: I'm actually getting ahead of myself here. That was from
Speaker 3: later in the game. I just got excited while hearing
Speaker 3: that Daniel Hunter highlight. The combination of what Danil's doing
Speaker 3: gaming game out and now DJ wantum and how he
Speaker 3: is finally We've been waiting for it a bit, but
Speaker 3: he is finally just exploded on the scene. How good
Speaker 3: he's been pending free agent. So another money related conversation
Speaker 3: down the road, but DJ want him. Another terrific game
Speaker 3: last night. But back to that first drive of the
Speaker 3: third quarter. The Broncos punt, so it's Vikings ball, first
Speaker 3: possession of the third quarter for them, it's nine plays,
Speaker 3: it's sixty nine yards. And while we've seen it now
Speaker 3: in the third game with Josh Dobbs, if if he
Speaker 3: can't find somebody to throw it too, he'll just run
Speaker 3: it himself.
Speaker 4: Hurt Nate tops out of the shotgun, looks left, steps up,
Speaker 4: runs to the ten five touchdown. Joshups put a ten
Speaker 4: yard rushing touchdown in the Minnesota Vikings lead sixteen nine.
Speaker 3: I'll tell you last night, I'm watching this game and
Speaker 3: I'm feeling because I'm emotional, and I'm a thirty eight
Speaker 3: year old man.
Speaker 2: Child it feels to me in this moment, and you.
Speaker 3: Combine that with, by the way, the ensuing possession by
Speaker 3: the Broncos, they go three and out. So now it's
Speaker 3: midway through, there's six and a half minutes left. As
Speaker 3: the Broncos punt, you're up seventeen to nine. That Broncos
Speaker 3: offense is not scoring a touchdown. This Vikings team is
Speaker 3: not going to lose this game. All they have to
Speaker 3: do is hold on to the ball. I was listening
Speaker 3: to the radio call on my way in to do
Speaker 3: fan line. I even heard the announcer mentioned it a
Speaker 3: couple of times. If we just don't turn it over,
Speaker 3: there's really no way we can lose this game. That's
Speaker 3: how lopsided it was last night. With our offense commanding
Speaker 3: time of possession, their offense sputtering to dead halts and
Speaker 3: punting all day.
Speaker 2: It was so one sided in that.
Speaker 3: Moment until the next drive was six and a half
Speaker 3: minutes left. Riley Dixon punts it. It's a touchback Vikings
Speaker 3: ball six plays, forty six yards and the.
Speaker 4: Fumble Johnny Munt in motion behind Dobbs, who's under center handoff.
Speaker 2: Heleen all on her now said he dropped it. Flag
Speaker 2: on the play.
Speaker 4: It was recovered by Josie Jewel i ser Madison fumble
Speaker 4: and Jewel fell on it at the thirty five yard line.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so it's Broncos ball, and this would be the
Speaker 3: drive once again where dj Wanham gets that sack on
Speaker 3: third down.
Speaker 2: You heard that.
Speaker 3: So they settle for Will Lutz's fourth field goal of
Speaker 3: the night. So now it is seventeen twelve Broncos.
Speaker 2: Now we need to respond.
Speaker 3: Let's get this offense moving again. But on the ensuing possession,
Speaker 3: our response one play and another turnover.
Speaker 4: Dobbs has sixteen rushing yards. Be nice to get about
Speaker 4: a fifteen here. For fifteen goes back to pass Hennessy crows. No,
Speaker 4: he threw it right to a Bronco after it was
Speaker 4: deflected Dan. The interception goes the way of Jaquan McMillan
Speaker 4: and eleven yard return and another Vikings turnover.
Speaker 2: Is keeping this Broncos team in the game.
Speaker 3: Indeed, it's just an avalanche of bad news. You get
Speaker 3: the fumble, then you get the interception there and Vikings
Speaker 3: defense continue to stand tall, and it's Will Lutz with
Speaker 3: his fifth field goal of the night.
Speaker 4: Will Lutz with a twenty eight yard try left hash
Speaker 4: high snap.
Speaker 2: It's put down by Dixon and that's a high five
Speaker 2: for will Watsy's five five on field.
Speaker 3: Goals, seventeen fifteen, still in favor of the Vikings, ten
Speaker 3: and a half minutes left in the game. Some people
Speaker 3: are mad at Madison because of that fumble. Other people,
Speaker 3: if you look at Ty Chandler whipping in pass protection
Speaker 3: that ends up forcing that Dobbs interception. If we can
Speaker 3: just combine the traits of those two, what kind of.
Speaker 2: Running back would we have? Maybe the perfect one, who knows.
Speaker 3: But in the end, Ty Chandler I mentioned he had
Speaker 3: ten carries for seventy three yards, so seven point three
Speaker 3: a carry.
Speaker 2: You love that.
Speaker 3: Thirty one of them came on a fake punt in
Speaker 3: our own territory.
Speaker 5: Here is a fake.
Speaker 2: It is a fake, and it worked.
Speaker 4: And here comes Time Chandler right side across the fifty
Speaker 4: to the bro coast forty and the Vikings get a
Speaker 4: first down on a.
Speaker 2: Piece of trickery.
Speaker 4: It's thirty two for thirty two with nine oh five
Speaker 4: and running to go in the game. The Vikings flit
Speaker 4: the field and keep the ball with a two point lead.
Speaker 3: What a play, What a call by head coach Kevin O'Connell.
Speaker 3: It's fourth and four at your own thirty one yard line,
Speaker 3: and he calls that fake punt. You could tell in
Speaker 3: some ways the coach was feeling it that you had
Speaker 3: just given up that field goal. You're still leading, but
Speaker 3: the tide is turning. You got to do something. We
Speaker 3: got a hold onto the ball and he did that
Speaker 3: thirty one yards from ty Chandler. That's all part of
Speaker 3: a fourteen play, sixty three yard drive that took nearly
Speaker 3: eight minutes off the clock. They do have to settle
Speaker 3: for a field goal, however, So now it is twenty
Speaker 3: to fifteen in favor of the Vikings and with three
Speaker 3: seventeen left. Russell Wilson He's won eight of his nine
Speaker 3: games against the Minnesota Vikings in his career, whether it's
Speaker 3: Seattle and now Denver, and well, he's done this a
Speaker 3: few times before. Ten plays seventy five yard drives resulting
Speaker 3: in touchdowns like this to Courtland.
Speaker 4: Suck Hurston ten from the Vikings fifteen. Wilson takes the snap,
Speaker 4: Vikings rush six, Russell throwing it to the end zone,
Speaker 4: pot Cortland's cutting touchdown and.
Speaker 2: Makaive Blackman come out up to the.
Speaker 4: En zone fifteen yard touchdown for Portland Sutton. Excellent work
Speaker 4: by Russell Wilson, because the pocket collapsed on him. Like
Speaker 4: the Hall of Famer he will be, he stepped up
Speaker 4: so adroitly bound to Sutton. Portland now has eight touchdowns
Speaker 4: this year, and the Broncs are taking a twenty one
Speaker 4: to twenty lead.
Speaker 2: With a minute three to go.
Speaker 3: The Broncos would attempt to go for two to make
Speaker 3: it twenty three to twenty a field goal game. They
Speaker 3: fail on the conversion, but the Vikings take over just
Speaker 3: over a minute. They got all three timeouts, just have
Speaker 3: to go thirty five forty yards to give Greg Joseph
Speaker 3: a real chance. They sput her out, who's completely disjointed.
Speaker 3: Game ends twenty one to twenty is the final. The
Speaker 3: Vikings are now six and five in the season, and
Speaker 3: because of turnovers, nine points off of those turnovers held
Speaker 3: them to field goals. The bend but don't break aspect
Speaker 3: of it was in play, but three turnovers nine points
Speaker 3: in a one point final.
Speaker 2: Score means a lot.
Speaker 3: Next up Monday night against the Chicago Bears, just after
Speaker 3: this Thanksgiving holiday.

Speaker 3: Kevin O'Connell and get his thoughts shortly after the win
Speaker 3: or in this case of loss, and here's their conversation
Speaker 3: from last night.
Speaker 7: Does this game basically just boil down to the minus
Speaker 7: three the take give and the lack of getting the
Speaker 7: ball away?
Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean, there's no question we talked about it
Speaker 8: was kind of the first thing we talked about this
Speaker 8: week as a football team is that's what the Denver
Speaker 8: Broncos had been really gaining a lot of momentum doing
Speaker 8: here at this point in the season was forcing turnovers
Speaker 8: and getting points off those turnovers. So losing it three
Speaker 8: to nothing tonight and the turnover margin was disappointing for sure.
Speaker 8: Thought defensively their ability to respond and hold them to
Speaker 8: three was big. And really, when you lose the turnover
Speaker 8: battle three to nothing and you still have a chance
Speaker 8: down one at the end and maybe give g a
Speaker 8: swing at it to win the football game, I think
Speaker 8: that's a credit to the team effort.
Speaker 9: But those turnovers were critical.
Speaker 8: And they will continue to be a winning and losing
Speaker 8: stat for every team in this league. It just creates
Speaker 8: a lot of things to overcome. It provides a lot
Speaker 8: of opportunity on a night when our defense was limiting
Speaker 8: some of those opportunities to win the time with possession
Speaker 8: the way we did run the football the way we did,
Speaker 8: there was a lot of things really good in all
Speaker 8: three phases of the fake execution by Matt Daniels. Guys,
Speaker 8: there was a lot to try to win the football
Speaker 8: with tonight. I credit our guys for their effort, but
Speaker 8: in the end, you know, the turnover battle will always
Speaker 8: be the story of every season, not just this season.
Speaker 8: Going on the road and losing it three nothing.
Speaker 7: You know, it seemed like there was some lack of
Speaker 7: downfield shots and attempts. That was that a product of
Speaker 7: game planed by you guys or something you guys saw
Speaker 7: that the Broncos defense was doing to kind of take
Speaker 7: that stuff away.
Speaker 8: No, we you know, we called a few of them.
Speaker 8: We definitely called a few of them. They were you know,
Speaker 8: they've got some good safeties that you know that played
Speaker 8: in the deep.
Speaker 9: Part of the field.
Speaker 8: Well, we were able to get some isolations here and there,
Speaker 8: but you know, definitely want to try to get more
Speaker 8: chunk plays when you're running it the way you are,
Speaker 8: the way we were and kind of controlling the time
Speaker 8: of possession. We mixed in some shots here and there.
Speaker 8: I thought, Josh, check the ball down on a couple
Speaker 8: of those shots and gain some real positive yardage.
Speaker 9: So we'll keep on trying to build, you.
Speaker 8: Know, the different ways of getting vertical on people, you know,
Speaker 8: through how we want to run our offense.
Speaker 9: But I thought we moved it well enough.
Speaker 8: I would have loved to finish in the red zone
Speaker 8: a couple more times with touchdowns. But across the board,
Speaker 8: you know, it all circles back to one stat when
Speaker 8: you go on the road, you can't do those things,
Speaker 8: and we did, and I've got to fix that and
Speaker 8: we'll go right back to work.
Speaker 7: You know, ty Chandler has been getting a lot more opportunities,
Speaker 7: obviously because of some injury and other things going on
Speaker 7: with the running back room. But I believe he goes
Speaker 7: over for seven years over seven yards of carry tonight
Speaker 7: has a huge you know, almost twenty yards on that
Speaker 7: on that third and twenty swing pass. What have you
Speaker 7: seen from his improvement game by game.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I just his explosiveness shows up. You can feel
Speaker 8: him on the field as far as his ability to
Speaker 8: not only be explosive, you know, with speed and bursts,
Speaker 8: but he's a physical, hard runner.
Speaker 9: I thought the way Alex and him.
Speaker 8: Really complimented each other tonight was really what we're looking for.
Speaker 8: You know, there's really a scenario where we feel really
Speaker 8: good about both those guys in the game and really
Speaker 8: keeping them both fresh, riding the hot hand, maybe on
Speaker 8: a drive here or there, but we really want to
Speaker 8: see both those guys out there getting touches, some designer
Speaker 8: type plays for.
Speaker 9: Tie with how explosive that he is.
Speaker 8: And I thought just across the board, both those guys,
Speaker 8: you know Alex, you know, had the critical fumble there
Speaker 8: when we had just kind of earned a new set
Speaker 8: of downs on the plus thirty four going in and listen,
Speaker 8: Alex ran very well tonight, ran very hard, just had
Speaker 8: that one.
Speaker 9: You know, they get the ball out there.
Speaker 8: We'll continue to find ways Ben to you know, move
Speaker 8: the football, running it, you know, getting our explosives when
Speaker 8: we can, hoping to get you know, JJ back at
Speaker 8: some point here where you know, there's been a lot
Speaker 8: of experience and growth through this offense, not only just
Speaker 8: with Josh coming aboard and moving the team the way
Speaker 8: he has, but just with all all of our guys
Speaker 8: really settling in. I told our guys after the game,
Speaker 8: you know, we we know what wins and loses football
Speaker 8: games in this league, and I believe we've got everything
Speaker 8: we need in that locker room and then some to go.
Speaker 8: Just go back to work this week and prove I
Speaker 8: have a big you know, NFC North matchup back at home.
Speaker 8: We'll be looking forward to getting back on the grass
Speaker 8: and competing again.
Speaker 7: So last one is you mentioned the defense with all
Speaker 7: those takeaways that Denver had only nine points. You know,
Speaker 7: they did not score a touchdown off of those takeaways,
Speaker 7: but you know they just got a little bit leaky
Speaker 7: on that last game winning drive. A lot of little
Speaker 7: checkdowns to p Ryan, like, what did you see from
Speaker 7: from what they did on that last drive, what we
Speaker 7: were doing?
Speaker 2: How were they able to score that touchdown?
Speaker 8: Yeah, and you know Russell Wilson's you know, he's had
Speaker 8: a lot of those in his career and thought they did.
Speaker 8: They moved the ball, they took some checkdowns, they were
Speaker 8: able to kind of just keep on pushing it down
Speaker 8: the field and getting into the scoring range, and then
