    Oh New Zealand!! Very disappointed with the final result. I feel NZ lost their discipline in that final quarter as they should have put England to bed long before that comeback. Or do England only turn up when playing NZ and Oz and can't be bothered trying against Ireland?

    Taking off my love for the All Blacks, the final.result is a moral victory for England and gives England a psychological advantage in their next meeting. It is a pity these two teams don't meet every autumn. The fans of both nations should demand it!!

    Brilliant drive from Leclerc to secure second in the championship. No way that car should have been ahead of any RB today.

    Meh, Cowboys are never a good match up for the Vikings with their pass defence.

    I don't think the Vikings are playing terribly simply because they haven't been allowed to play at all.

    Need a touchdown this drive to stay in it. This O should be able to do well against anyone, defence playing like I thought they would at the start of the year

    Just showing they are what most people think, nowhere near as good as the 8-1 record. Last week was a miracle, but this team won’t do anything in the play offs

    Don’t think the defence has had one stop so far, points on every Cowboy possession

    They've literally targeted Booth all game who is way out of his depth but we haven't got any other options. Also, Darrisaw leaving the game with concussion has screwed us offensively. Cousins is literally getting no protection. It's ugly, but there are some mitigating circumstances. Just one to write off and move on.

    Yeah obviously a **** show of a game, same as against the Eagles. Hopefully doesn’t trigger a very Vikings like run of losses

    We responded well to the Eagles loss so no reason why we can't again.

    Woke up and couldn't get back to sleep so watched 2nd half of Vikings-Patriots and was worth it. Great bounceback win and Cousins had a good prime time game! 80% completion rate, 300 yards and 3 TD's. Can't ask for much more than that. Special Teams excellent again. Defence made some big plays in the last quarter. Good teams respond well to setbacks and Vikings definitely did that.

    Just watched the replay of the whole game, defence was poor generally but made the stops at the end. Jefferson was good again and Cousins was good, bad interception first half but a good win overall
