The Minnesota Vikings (and Green Bay Packers) are 9-2 on the year and have exceeded nearly all expectations so far. They will surely be in the NFC playoff picture and will have all the confidence in the world to make a deep run.
That being said, Minnesota fans don’t have much patience for players who could cost them a championship. They are hungry to know what that feels like.
RB Aaron Jones is feeling that right now.

After Chicago’s late rally last week, Jones was delighted to see his team win. A good team does that when facing adversity, he said. It was also pleasing for him that his fumble near the Chicago goal line in the first quarter didn’t cost his team any points.
Despite Jones’ two big runs on the opening possession, defensive back Jonathan Owens forced a loose ball and also recovered it at the Bears’ 1-yard line. In an interview with NFL.com reporter Stacey Dales, Jones explained why he was disconsolate on the sidelines:
“I wanted to get into the end zone and you lose the ball,” Jones said. “Those are the things that get you fired. I can’t do that. I got to be better than that and I told coach (Kevin O’Connell) thanks for sticking with me.”
Here is a look at Jones’ stats so far this season:
