The Minnesota Vikings have been a tough team to figure out. They have pushed the best teams in the NFL to their absolute limits and gotten big wins over teams like the Super Bowl champion Eagles while suffering a humiliating defeat to the Buffalo Bills.
Week 9 was a dominating defensive performance by Minnesota, keeping the Lions out of the end zone and holding them to a total of nine points. Meanwhile, the Vikings offense struggled to execute, scoring only one passing touchdown and one rushing touchdown.
Despite the unbalanced performance, the Vikings remain undefeated in division games, bringing a 1-0-1 record into their bye week.
