The Minnesota Vikings closed out a mediocre preseason Thursday night with a blowout loss to the Miami Dolphins.

The Minnesota Vikings wrapped up their preseason schedule last night with a 30-9 lost to the Miami Dolphins. It was a disappointing loss for the Vikings. The lost put the Vikings at 2-2 for the preseason.

There was a hint that Mike Zimmer might play his starters, but he decided to let the starters sit this one out. So, the game featured  back-up players and players trying to make a roster spot.

The most disappointing part of last night game was the Vikings’ defense allowed too many big plays, especially in the passing game. The Vikings’ defense has been shaky all preseason but hopefully they will turn it around for the regular season.

But let’s dive into the game grades of the Vikings’ lost last night against the Dolphins. This article will look at the offense grade, defense grade and special teams’ grade.
