MINNEAPOLIS -- No one wanted to leave Sunday from U.S. Bank Stadium. A crowd of 67,008 stood cheering wildly as the clock wound down. Video of Minnesota Vikings receivers Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison appeared on the big screen as they celebrated a rare level of combined production. The camera then panned to Sam Darnold.

The decibel level rose for a quarterback who had just thrown for 347 yards and five touchdowns, and was awaiting the final whistle of the Vikings' 42-21 victory over the Atlanta Falcons.
