NFL standings and Playoff Picture

Patrick Peterson intercepted Josh Allen with 1:12 left in overtime to finally end a rollercoaster game between two of the NFL’s best teams on Sunday.The Minnesota Vikings took advantage of three turnovers by Buffalo Bills QB Allen in the fourth quarter and overtime, pulling ahead late in regulation when he mishandled a snap and fumbled in the end zone. Greg Joseph put the Vikings ahead to stay by hitting a 33-yard field goal with 3:42 left in overtime. The game didn’t end until Allen, facing second and 10 at Minnesota’s 20, forced a pass over the middle intended for Gabe Davis, only to have Peterson intercept it a few yards into the end zone, his second pick of the day. Peterson ran out and slid to the turf. Kirk Cousins threw for 357 yards, and Justin Jefferson had a monster game with 10 catches for 193 yards, including an incredible one-handed grab to convert a fourth-and-18 for the NFC North-leading Vikings (8-1). Minnesota rallied to win when trailing with 2 1/2 minutes or less remaining in regulation for the fifth time this season. The Bills (6-3) dropped out of the AFC lead with their second straight loss.
