EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. — The Vikings are ready to get back to work after a few days off.
Minnesota, the lone unbeaten team in the NFL at 5-0, had its bye week as players and coaches scattered away from Winter Park.
The Vikings now turn their attention to the Eagles, who are 3-2. Philadelphia started 3-0 but lost two straight to Detroit and Washington.
The obvious storyline of the week is the September trade the teams made that brought Vikings quarterback Sam Bradford to Minnesota.

Bradford finally got a chance to catch his breath during the bye week as the quarterback’s first six weeks in Purple were spent learning the playbook and establishing a rapport with his teammates.
