Detroit --

The Vikings won a game on Sunday in Detroit, and little about the game mattered other than the result.

The defense shutting down the Lions? Who doesn’t. They haven’t score more than 22 points in a game since Oct. 21, and that was against Miami.

The offense emerging from an inept quarter-and-a-half to produce 24 points? Well, the Vikings wouldn’t have seemed so productive if not for a Hail Mary touchdown at the end of the first half.

The details don’t matter much at this time of the year, though, because the Vikings have entered the portion of the season in which only math matters.
