The Minnesota Vikings have been really poor with ball management this season. They have turned it over 12 times with four interceptions and eight fumbles.
In the second quarter, Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins was pressured quickly and pitched it backward to Cam Akers. He couldn’t corral the football and eventually tried to knock it out of bounds. The ball was recovered by Chicago Bears linebacker T.J. Edwards but he was ruled to be out of bounds and the Vikings kept the ball.
This was the first Vikings fumble that wasn’t recovered by the defense but it enraged the fanbase just the same. They took to Twitter to express their frustration;.
The Vikings are addicted to fumbling

That would be the Vikings' NINTH lost fumble in game No. 6 if it stands. Cousins with a desperation lateral while getting sacked, question is if Bears recovered in bounds.

This Vikings team is poorly coached. The amount of dumb mistakes they make is atrocious.

Don’t let anyone gaslight you into thinking @KirkCousins8 is a good quarterback. He garbage and plays like a rookie. Sloppy play @Vikings

For the first time in my life, may say screw it and take a nap during a Vikings game. This season is so dumb.

the Vikings fumble issue is very funny bc they find new ways to fumble so you can't actually solve it

The Vikings continue to find new ways to be dumb.

And that attempt by Akers to pick up the ball sums up the #Vikings season.

I JUST WANT A VIKINGS GAME WITH 0 FUMBLES.
They could even lose… idc. Just hold on to the ball. I'm in hell
