The Minnesota Vikings continue their winning ways with their win against the Washington Redskins, but how did each unit do in the win on the road.

The Minnesota Vikings picked up a key road win in Week 10 over the Washington Redskins by the score of 38 to 30. The Vikings improved their win streak to five games. The Vikings overall record improves to 7-2 and their chances for the NFC North title increases.

The Vikings passing game has been mediocre over the last five weeks but broke out on Sunday. The bye week seemed to help as Stefon Diggs and Adam Thielen dominated the Redskins secondary.

The Vikings run game was also strong on Sunday giving the offense a good balance. Overall, the Vikings offense looked good against a Redskin’s defense that shut down the Seattle Seahawks offense a week ago.

The Vikings defense had their roughest outing of the season giving up 30 points. The Redskins offense was led by their passing attack with 327 yards.

The Vikings defense was exploited by the tight end and slot receiver for the Redskins. But the defense did enough to preserve the lead and was put in a tough situation late in the game with a couple of turnovers by the Vikings offense.

But let’s dive into the game grades for Week 10.
