Game Summary:
By all accounts this was a sight to see in the second half. Unfortunately this game needed a second half to be good. The Vikings scored on their opening possession but got themselves in a hole after that until the 3rd quarter when they started to claw back. Minnesota scored 21 unanswered points until Buffalo kicked a 29 yard field goal to tie the game in the waning seconds. Minnesota would end up winning overtime, kicking a 33 yard field goal and picking off Josh Allen to seal the game.
This doesn't even mention the multiple turnovers Minnesota gave away and captured. One key one played a role in Minnesota's final touchdown, when Eric Kendricks returned a fumble by Josh Allen at the goal line. 
The Vikings were outmatched in this game but found a way to claw back in the 3rd and 4th quarter and win the game in OT. Suddenly Minnesota is 8-1 and in the drivers seat for the 2nd seed in the NFC.
