    that's not the first time today I've seen Cam's Vikings game described as nearly perfect, while excusing the two fumbles. I mean, not that it's Cam's job to block Allen, but he did fumble twice, and that's part of it too. Those two fumbles were 14 points. Guy has grown as a passer but you can make a realistic argument that he could stop spotting the other team points.




    all that aside I was reading an article about what he was doing this time last year, and thought back to that championship game, and preseason this year, and I'm still amazed he's even on the field. That somehow he's in the top 5 in yardage and being efficient on third down is blowing my fucking mind. This guy was doing a consistent 40% and doing literally nothing on third down two months ago.

    Everyone keeps saying the two fumbles were 14. Didn't they miss a FG after the first one? We ended up with good FP afterwards too.

    i think that's right. missed the fg, then we gave it right back somehow.

    Nope. They had the long return of the opening kick, the D held and they missed the FG giving us the ball at the spot. Cam fumbled it right back to them.
