The Vikings’ defensive performance allowed their offense to enjoy a relatively pedestrian day with a few contributions from unlikely sources proving enough to secure victory.
Let’s dive in to the top five takeaways from Minnesota’s Week 7 performance and predict how they could affect the Vikings’ jaunt over to London against the Browns and beyond. Let’s started with the most important position of all and how it could define the Vikings’ season.
