Minnesota Vikings 34, Cincinnati Bengals 7: Vikings crush Bengals to clinch division

Last week, the Minnesota Vikings let an opportunity to wrap up the NFC North slip away with a hard-fought loss to the Carolina Panthers. On their second opportunity to punch their postseason ticket, they left no doubt.

The Vikings were utterly dominant on defense on the afternoon, not allowing any points until late in the contest, and Case Keenum once again put up impressive numbers to give the Vikings a 34-7 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 15 action.

Minnesota got things going early, marching down the field on their opening drive after Case Keenum was sacked on the game’s first play.
