The Vikings won a pretty well played game by both teams, on the road, in prime time, against a winning team. They held on to beat the Cowboys 28-24, leaning more on the offense than defense to get an early lead, and comeback late on a night when the Vikings pass defense gave up a big game to Dak Prescott, Amari Cooper and Randall Cobb.
But they also contained Ezekiel Elliot the entire game, and came up with a key red zone and late game stop that turned out to be the difference in the game.
