Well that was fun, wasn’t it?
A week after getting their eight-game winning streak snapped in Carolina, the Vikings bounced back in a big way by throttling the Bengals 34-7. The Vikings D was decimating and dominant for the duration of the duel, holding the Bengals to 161 total yards and picking off two Andy Dalton passes. Cincinnati converted only 1 of 13 third downs and had the ball for only 24:08. After getting burned on a couple long runs against the Panthers last week, the Vikings held the Bengals to 2.
