Week 15 had a lot of highs and a few lows for the Minnesota Vikings as they took on the Los Angeles Chargers, but what were the best and worst moments?

If the Minnesota Vikings wanted to keep the playoffs in their crosshairs, they needed to take care of business and win as many of their final three games of the season as possible. Week 15 brought them to California, where they took on the Chargers.

A team that sometimes plays better than their record, Los Angeles looked as though they could have given the purple and gold a lot of trouble, especially with some great weapons like Melvin Gordon, Keenan AllenMelvin Ingram III, Joey Bosa, and Derwin James on their roster, they will be a team to watch in the future.

However, Week 15 wasn’t kind to the Chargers, offensively or defensively. After a competitive first half, Minnesota opened the game up wide, scoring 20 points compared to zero for the Chargers. The game ended with the final score being 39-10, in favor of the Vikings.

There were a lot of high points from the game as well as some parts of the game that weren’t quite amazing. Let’s talk about the best and worst things from the Minnesota Vikings in Week 15 against the Los Angeles Chargers.
