The Minnesota Vikings extend their win streak to six games after an excellent performance against the Los Angeles Rams but how did each unit do in the win?

The Minnesota Vikings continued their strong play at home with a 24-7 win over the Rams. The Vikings win came by a team effort as the defense and offense stepped up together to get the job done.

The Vikings’ defense was very impressive on Sunday as they were able to slow the number one scoring offense in the league. After giving up an early touchdown in the game, the Vikings defense rose to the challenge and made it difficult for the Rams offense.

The Vikings offense continued their strong play and being fundamentally sound in the win.  The offensive unit continues to be balanced with their run and pass plays which are a key for this offense.

Overall, the Vikings looked like a serious contender in the NFC with this win. Experts say, for teams to be successful in the playoffs, the team needs to run the ball and play defense which the Vikings have done all year.

But let’s dive into the game grades for Week 11.
