No, the Minnesota Vikings defense has not been good this season. This isn’t about the secondary though, instead thinking that alternative options on offense could be a major factor against the New York Giants.
When the Minnesota Vikings took down Brian Daboll’s team less than a month ago, they did so in nail-biting fashion. Greg Joseph needed to kick a 61-yard field goal in order to send fans home happy. Looking to avoid that scenario this time, Kevin O’Connell would much prefer his team to pull away early and create some separation.
With the Vikings defense being what it is, it will always be hard to expect a safe lead offensively.
