Even tho the Vikes offense was more effected by our defense. We were also effected by theres. But our offense left 10-20 pts on the field with missed catches and FG's, which is uncharacteristic. But the Vikings defense is the real deal, in regards to the front 7, they may be the best in the NFC.
The Bengals are not the best defense in the AFC. I may be wrong but I dont see the same thing happening. and BB has more experience in these matters than Payton.
