Vikings turnovers cost them massive win probability

The four fumbles were really costly to the Vikings on Thursday

According to NFL Net Gen Stats, the Minnesota Vikings lost 44% in win probability from their four lost fumbles.

With the Vikings’ four fumbles, they have lost a total of 44% in win probability. In week one, they lost 33.6% on three turnovers.

Minnesota’s turnover woes have set this team back more than any other part of this offense. When you turn the ball over at a rate like the Vikings have in these first two weeks, you handicap your offense and tire out your defense by continuously keeping them on the field.

The fact that the Vikings are still in this game after these four fumbles is a testament to the resolve of this team but the mistakes cannot continue.

The fumbles have to stop. Hang on to the football.

This team is better than the mistake-ridden product that they have put on the field the past two weeks. Thankfully, they have 15 more games to prove it.
