Special Teams Meltdown
Two huge special teams gaffes by the Vikings have helped give the Bears a 24-17 lead with time ticking down in the first half. Chris Kluwe fumbled a snap, leading to a blocked punt TD. Then, a few minutes ago, Charles Gordon broke the cardinal rule of punt returning – not getting the hell away from a ball that’s bounced – and ended up touching the ball and giving the Bears a recovery for a touchdown. Good teams find ways to win – and bad teams find ways to lose. The Vikings are inventing new ways to lose…
And Gus Frerotte gets into the act by throwing a pick in the very next offensive series. Things are going south fast.
