The Minnesota Vikings were 3-0 entering Monday night with the New York Giants in town looking to knock them from the ranks of the undefeated. Boasting an explosive offense and a revamped defense, Eli Manning and company should have been able to give the Vikings a good match up. Unfortunately, they couldn’t.

The Vikings have been relying on their defense through the first three weeks, which is understandable when you consider all the abrupt changes because of injuries. On Monday night, the offense was finally able to show signs of life. If this offense continues to improve, and the defense stays at an elite level, this team will be very hard to beat.

While the game may have been lopsided, there were still some performances that stood out. Who were the biggest winners and losers from week 4?
