Which players on offense and defense stood out the most from the game between the Minnesota Vikings and Oakland Raiders in Week 3 of the 2019 season?

The Minnesota Vikings dismantled Oakland Raiders in Week 3, bringing their record to 2-1 on the season. Still, they are a full game behind the Green Bay Packers in the NFC North, a half-game between the Detroit Lions, and could still be tied with the Chicago Bears depending on the results of Monday Night Football.

While the purple and gold are already looking ahead to the late-afternoon game on Sunday when the Chicago Bears will host the Vikings, fans can still take a look back at how impressive their performance was in Week 3.

Minnesota finally paired a solid, efficient passing game with their strong rushing attack was a great recipe for success offensively and the defense did an amazing job with limiting yards and setting the tone early.

Let’s take a look at some of the individuals from the Minnesota Vikings who had great performances in Week 3 against the Oakland Raiders as well as those who did enough to be called the offensive and defensive MVP!
