Minnesota is 1-4-1 in its past six games, including a 3-1 home loss to the Jets on Friday. "There was a lot of inconsistencies in our game and early in the year," coach Mike Yeo said. "I think we're playing the same game that we were at the start of the year, but the League gets better and we're not getting away with those things. This is maybe a good kick in the [rear]."
