We have a new front-runner for the NFL game of the year.
The Minnesota Vikings and Buffalo Bills put on a show on Sunday, that ended in a Vikings overtime win.
Buffalo saw their 27-10 lead vanish after Minnesota struck for a few big plays in the second half.
For the Vikings, it was Justin Jefferson and Dalvin Cook who helped bring them back.
Also, a crucial fumbled snapped in the end zone gave the Vikings the lead with only 41 seconds to play.
Bills quarterback Josh Allen had a chance to redeem himself in overtime when Buffalo needed a touchdown to win.
Instead, the MVP candidate threw a crushing interception in the end zone to give Minnesota the upset victory.
A Game For The Ages
Fans around the league were thrilled with the back-and-forth action of this game.
Vikings-Bills = best regular season game of the year. Maybe the decade. Maybe ever.

Both of these teams looked like two of the best in football on Sunday, and that is what their records indicate.
Minnesota improved to 8-1 with the win and continues to chase the number-one seed in the NFC.
While Buffalo fell to 6-3, they have some work to do to secure the AFC East and top seed in the conference.

This was an impressive win for a Vikings team that was questioned to be amongst the NFC’s elite.
But, it is hard to doubt them now.
After failing to score on the 4th-&-goal quarterback sneak it seemed like all hope was lost.
But, their defense was able to prevail when they were needed the most.

It is going to be difficult to find a better game than this one all season.
But, these are the type of games that make the NFL one of the most-watched leagues in the world.
