9 charts that show the Minnesota Vikings' stunning turnaround from last season

It's a season no one saw coming.

The Minnesota Vikings are 8-1, riding a seven-game winning streak and holding a nearly insurmountable lead in the NFC North, with almost a half-season's worth of games left. How did they get here?

The streak has been filled with either come-from-behind or hang-on-until-the-end victories, highlighted by Sunday's crazy overtime win in Buffalo.

Even just looking at the last two minutes of regulation, plus overtime, the game was a roller coaster for fans.

With the exception of the first two games, most of the other seven games so far this season were filled with ups and downs that you can see by looking at the Vikings' play-by-play win probability ratings, according to ESPN.
