What were the best and worst things from the Minnesota Vikings in Week 13?
The Minnesota Vikings entered Week 13 as heavy favorites to beat the Jacksonville Jaguars at U.S. Bank Stadium. While the purple and gold were looking to move closer to a playoff spot, the Jaguars were in the running for the number one overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft.
This game wasn’t nearly as lopsided as it should have been on paper. Minnesota turned the ball over twice, allowed a defensive touchdown, and was on the bad side of some fluke plays that kept Jacksonville in the game.
It took the entirety of regulation plus nearly all of the overtime period for the Vikings to put the Jaguars away. The final score ended up 27-24 thanks to a Dan Bailey chip shot field goal to put the nail in Jacksonville’s coffin.
But what were the best and worst things to happen to the Minnesota Vikings during their Week 13 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars? And what other positives and negatives were there? Let’s take a look starting with the best thing to come out of the game.
