Indianapolis Colts at Minnesota Vikings: First Quarter Recap and Second Quarter Discussion

Christopher Gates has been the lead writer at The Daily Norseman since the site launched in July of 2006, covering the Minnesota Vikings day in and day out.

We’ve made it through the first fifteen minutes of Sunday Night Football with the Minnesota Vikings and the Indianapolis Colts in a scoreless tie.

The Colts took the football first after the Vikings won the coin toss and chose to defer to the second half, putting Brian Flores’ defense on the field first. The Colts quickly moved into Minnesota territory, but then the Vikings’ defense came up big as Jonathan Taylor fumbled a handoff from Joe Flacco and Harrison Smith jumped on it for a turnover!
