The fourth quarter of the 2015 NFL regular season kicked off with a rare quality Thursday night game between two playoff contenders. The injury-riddled Minnesota Vikings literally fumbled away an opportunity to pull off a road upset, losing 23-20 to the Arizona Cardinals. Minnesota lost three fumbles, including a Dwight Freeney strip sack of Teddy Bridgewater with five seconds to play which denied the Vikings of a chance to the the game and send it to overtime. Minnesota fell a half game behind Green Bay in the NFC North while Arizona became the second team to clinch a playoff spot with their seventh straight win.
