The Best

There are many special players on the Minnesota Vikings roster, but very few of them can do the things that Adam Thielen can do with a football. He put on an absolute show on Sunday and reminded everyone of how good he really is.

At 30 years old, Vikings fans have come to expect greatness for Thielen on a regular basis. This week provided another highlight-reel catch to add to his resume, grabbing a one-handed touchdown that looked as though it would sail out of bounds.

In fact, Thielen was quite dominant in this game, hauling in eight of his 11 targets for 123 yards and two touchdowns, including one very nice 51-yard reception that energized the Minnesota sideline.

One of the biggest questions this season was how Thielen would fare without Diggs. So far, it’s hard to complain. This season has seen him catch 49 passes for 646 yards and 11 touchdowns, making him the league-leader in touchdown catches.
