After their Week 2 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, which members of the Minnesota Vikings are receiving more blame than they should?

The Minnesota Vikings are arguably just a couple of plays from being 2-0 right now as they head into a Week 3 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers.

Losing the turnover battle by a considerable amount while being on the road and also facing the defending NFC Champs usually would mean a blowout loss for Minnesota, but that wasn't the case in Week 2 against the Philadelphia Eagles. Even though the Vikings were able to keep it close after so many unforced errors, a loss is still a loss, and now they're 0-2 to begin the season.

The entire Vikings team had their ups and downs last Thursday night, as teams obviously do. The loss is not solely on certain members of the team's shoulders, yet some of them are getting more blame for the loss than they deserve.
