Greg Joseph field goal in last 2 minutes gives Vikings 3-0 win over Raiders

Was it the Minnesota Vikings at Las Vegas Raiders or the Minnesota Golden Gophers against Iowa?

The Vikings and Raiders played a Week 14 game that could easily have been confused with a Hawkeyes game in 2023.

There was no scoring until Greg Joseph kicked a 36-yard field goal with 1:57 lefty at Allegiant Stadium on Sunday.

How bad was it?

The teams accounted for 17 punts with 7 inside the 20. The final one was Joesph’s 14-yarder in the last 18 seconds rather than trying for a second field goal.

Curtis Bolton returned it 17 yards so the Vikings actually lost yardage on the pooch punt.

A.J. Cole of the Raiders had a long of 83 yards; Ryan Wright’s best effort was 59.

Combined there were 830 yards of punts.

There were nine sacks in the game, five by the Raiders.

Ivan Pace had 13 tackles and his interception of Aidan O’Connell after the field goal sealed the Vikings’ win.
