Personally think the cold made the biggest difference but who knows.

Yeah, their returned presence made an impact.

The conditions today heavily favored both defenses. The Vikings scheme worked well because they stacked the box and used more press to take away some of the short throws. Seahawks gave up some of the short throws by running a deeper zone it seemed. I think the Vikings figured the conditions would erase most of the deep throws, and I think for the most part they were right.

personally I think the fact that it felt like -20 had a bigger factor

I'm not taking away anything from the Bikes, but yo, the coldness was the biggest thing for us today. You could see it in the way that everybody save for the defensive line played. Did anyone notice how slow it made Tyler Lockett?
