Since Campbell the Vikings have..
Won by 2
Lost by 2

They're not quite there yet.. But this ain't the "same old Lions team" anymore
Billy, this is Kirk Cousins
He’s a top-10 QB in multiple statistical categories 4 years running with a knack for leading his team on game winning drives
His only defect is he’s never felt the POWER of the chain…
Until now…
Anyone remember this one!?.. Hands down one of the wildest endings I've ever witnessed in any sport..
- 6 combined TDs in 4th QT
- 6 different lead changes in 4th QT
- 36 (36!) points scored in final 2:09

As we watch NFL teams struggle from GM to GM in a wasteland of mediocracy..Today we honor our own local hero..the man who gives us hope through consistency and cap space..Who demands high character men and leads by example both off the field and in the weight room..
