HOU-MIN grades: Vikings defense forces Osweiler into awful game

Minnesota Vikings 31, Houston Texans 13

Here are the highest-graded players and top takeaways from Minnesota’s 34-13 win over Houston:

Quarterback grade: Sam Bradford, 81.7

Sam Bradford had his fourth straight game with a positive passing grade in the Vikings’ win over the Texans, which is an even more impressive feat considering how new he is to the Minnesota team and scheme. Bradford was terrific under duress, completing 80 percent of his passes and earning a 144.2 QB rating on his 12 dropbacks under pressure. Bradford was accurate to the intermediate and deep areas of the field, as he completed 5 of 7 passes thrown 10 or more yards downfield.
