Presser Points: Shurmur on Red Zone, Edwards on Reed's Threat, Priefer on Walsh

EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. — Vikings Interim Offensive Coordinator Pat Shurmur has had a little more than a week in his current role and a full week to game plan for Sunday at Washington.

Shurmur said some things went well last week against Detroit, but added, “we’ve got to do better in, certainly, critical situations.”

The Michigan native lamented two red zone possessions that ended without any points for the Vikings against the Lions.

Consecutive penalties followed by a negative run and a sack backed the Vikings up from starting a possession at the Detroit 18 to the 40 and forced a punt in the second quarter.
