The Vikings are 5-0 and are the lone unbeaten team left in the NFL. Minnesota scored a 31-13 win over the Texans as Sam Bradford threw for two touchdowns, Matt Asiata ran for another and Marcus Sherels took a punt back 79 yards for a touchdown. Adam Thielen and Cordarrelle Patterson were on the receiving end of Bradford’s scoring throws.
The Vikings defense turned in another outstanding effort, limiting Houston to just 214 net yards and allowing the Texans to convert just one of their 13 opportunities on third down.
