Our defense was dead tired during the fourth quarter. I actually saw it on Wade Phillips' face. He new they were tired.
 
It's not as if all those guys are not already playing.

I would not make some knee-jerk changes. Just give the Vikings credit, figure out what they did that was effective and how to counter it when the Saints try the same thing.

Did you see how Mike Zimmer gave his defense a 5 minute rest when the Lions were rolling down the field?

He threw a red flag to challenge a play.
They lost the challenge and Detroit lost the momentum.

The Lions kicked a field goal because the Vikings were able to use that rest to their advantage.
