Vikings Team Grades: Long Touchdowns Spark Minnesota’s Victory Over Arizona

Xavier Rhodes returned an interception 100 yards and Cordarrelle Patterson returned a kickoff 104 yards for touchdowns to lead the Minnesota Vikings past the Arizona Cardinals 30-24 Sunday at US Bank Stadium.

Adam Thielen and Matt Asiata also had touchdowns for the Vikings. The Cardinals stayed in the game with two touchdowns from David Johnson and another by Jermaine Gresham.

Offense: B-

The offense did just enough to win the game. They had just 217 yards, 28:58 time of possession and 16 first downs – all numbers topped by the Cardinals. The biggest positive for the Vikings is that the offensive line allowed just two sacks and six quarterback hits.
