We watched those two offenses slop it around for 29 minutes, and then they combine for 10 points in the final minute. I think the Vikings keep waiting for Kyle Orton to make a mistake.
At this point, that's the only way they're going to get in the end zone. The unnecessary roughness penalty on Charlie Tillman was an absolute killer for the Bears.
I was surprised the Vikings didn't kneel the ball after that awful Tarvaris Jackson's awful interception. Minnesota is incredibly fortunate to be one score down after those three turnovers.
Tarvaris Jackson was 12 of 20 for 139 yards and had a 41.5 passer rating in the first half. His counterpart, Orton, was 13 of 21 for 95 yards and had a 72.5 rating. If you took Devin Hester off the field, this would be painful to watch.
Look for Jackson to take off and run more in the second half. He finally did that at the end of the half and ended up with 18 yards and a roughing penalty.
