Eleven and one. And we get to confront that One next Sunday. That one point.

Grisly, frustrating game against a stingy Vikings defense last night. Felt like a stolen win. Not an enjoyable performance by the gilded rookie phenoms that have dominated the highlight reels this year, but a win nonetheless.

My opinion, this is just as good as a gut check loss. A wake up call. This hardens resolve. It props up faith. It lets the competition know that it will have to win all 3 phases of the game to beat them.

That's not an easy thing to do. It forces opponents to dilute their focus when game planning.

Ugly game to watch. Beautiful ugly win.
