Mistake prone Vikings comeback falls short against the Colts

The Vikings started extremely slow in Indianapolis, allowing 21 points in the first half. They managed to crawl back into the game late, as Adrian Peterson scored a 1 yard touchdown, and Christian Ponder threw a strike to rookie Jarius Wright in the back of the end zone. With the ball back, and 40 seconds left, the Vikings could not pull off the comeback, dropping to 1-1 on the year.
