The last time the Philadelphia Eagles played at U.S. Bank Stadium they won the highest scoring Super Bowl in history.
A year-and-a half after that victory over the Patriots — which came after they ousted the Vikings in the NFC title game — the Eagles could only watch as the Vikings put up their best offensive effort of the season.
Philadelphia threw a scare into the U.S. Bank Stadium crowd by scoring 17 consecutive points after falling behind early, but the Vikings righted the ship in the second half to improve to 4-2.
Trailing 24-10 to start the third quarter, the Eagles (3-3) got a quick touchdown on a 3-yard pass from Carson Wentz to Alshon Jeffery and a 40-yard field goal from Blake Elliott to get within 24-20.
