NFL Week 15's special Saturday slate kicked off with a wild and historic comeback win in Minneapolis.

Kirk Cousins and the Minnesota Vikings rallied to knock off the Indianapolis Colts in overtime 39-36 in what was the largest comeback win in NFL history.

The win clinched the NFC North for the Vikings, too, giving them their first division title since 2017.

The Colts led the game 33-0 at halftime, and seemed like they would cruise to the win. Yet the Vikings put up 14 points in the third and then 22 in the fourth — including a huge Dalvin Cook touchdown and two-point conversion — to tie the game and force overtime.

Then right as time expired, Greg Joseph drilled a 40-yard field goal to give them the win.

The two late games have a lot to live up to on the first NFL Saturday of the season.
