Down 21-6, the Minnesota Vikings were in desperation mode at Lambeau Field Saturday. Adam Thielen delivered in a huge way with a 71-yard touchdown catch against the Green Bay Packers to breathe new life into his suffocating team.
Getting a bit of assistance from the Packers, as defenders collided on the play, Thielen was all alone as he hauled in this deep pass from Sam Bradford.
Oh wow.
Packers DBs collide…And @athielen19 goes 71 yards to the HOUSE. #SKOL https://t.co/Q0MQS8ijZo

Seventy-one yards later, Thielen was all alone in the end zone.
This touchdown cut the lead to one score, as Green Bay led 21-13 after Kai Forbath drilled the extra point through the uprights.
