Things didn’t turn out the way that the Minnesota Vikings were hoping for on Sunday, so who is to blame for their disappointing loss to the Kansas City Chiefs?

Against the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday, the Minnesota Vikings put it all on the table in an effort to increase their winning streak to five games. However, the Chiefs proved to be the better team and the Vikings had to leave the field with their third loss of the season.

Minnesota had a number of opportunities to escape Kansas City with a win on Sunday. But the mistakes the Vikings made throughout the afternoon ended up being too much for them to overcome.

Many had this road matchup against the Chiefs as a loss for Minnesota before the 2019 season even began. But the fact that the Vikings were so close to earning the victory makes the result that much tougher to swallow.

There is plenty of blame to go around following Minnesota’s loss in Kansas City. So before the Vikings begin their preparations for Week 10, let’s figure out who deserves the most blame for the unfortunate results that went down on Sunday inside Arrowhead Stadium.
