Notebook: Joseph catalyst in middle

Linval Joseph had a big day for the Minnesota Vikings, stuffing Todd Gurley and pressuring Nick Foles. Plus, get nearly 20 notes that help tell the tale of the 21-18 overtime win.

The Minnesota Vikings have prided themselves on their defense all season, having not allowed any of their first eight opponents to get more than two touchdowns against them. That trend continued Sunday in a 21-18 overtime win over the St. Louis Rams. Despite a defensive line that was missing Sharrif Floyd, there was no stopping Linval Joseph. Joseph had as dominant a game as he’s ever had since.
