NY Jets 29, Vikings 20

The Vikings are digging themselves a big whole as they dropped to 1-3 on the season with a 29-20 loss to the Jets in New York tonight.  It was another winnable game, they seemed to be sleepwalking through the first two thirds of the game though.  The offense is still not clicking, they've got a lot of work ahead of them if they want to pull this together.  Other observations?  1) Favre did seem distracted, he needs to get his head straight.  2) The Vikings need to create more turnovers, they lost that battle 3-0 tonight.  3) Randy Moss did alright on 3 days of  practice, he obviously will help going forward.  4) Percy Harvin seemed to really benefit from the addition of Moss, he had a very nice game.  5) It would really be nice if they had a punt returner who could do more than just call for a fair catch, why did they get rid of Darius Reynaud again?  6) The offensive line needs to get a lot better, they really haven't been living up to their hype.  7) Cedric Griffith's injury worries me, especially given Chris Cook's injury last week, I don't have much confidence at all in Asher Allen or Lito Sheppard at CB.  8) They've got the 1-3 Cowboys next weekend in a match up of 2 now very desperate teams, it should be interesting.
