If Vikings fans were hoping for a stress-free Christmas Eve against the Giants, they didn’t get what they wanted. Such is life in Minnesota this season.
But once more, the Vikings found a way to get it done, pulling out a thrilling 27-24 home victory over New York on a 61-yard field goal by Greg Joseph on the final play of the game. Minnesota improved to 11-0 this season in one-possession games with the victory.
And, as expected, Vikings radio play-by-play announcer Paul Allen came through with another exuberant call on the clutch kick. Minnesota (12-3) already had claimed the NFC North division title last week.
