What are the most disappointing things about the Minnesota Vikings that occurred during their Week 4 win over the Carolina Panthers?

The Minnesota Vikings finally got a tally in the win column after a 21-13 victory over the Carolina Panthers this past Sunday.

Things didn't go smoothly for the Vikings in this one. They overcame many of the issues plaguing them all season, primarily a first-quarter 99-yard interception return.

Kirk Cousins turned the ball over again in the second quarter after getting hit while trying to lob the ball down the field. Despite those turnovers, Minnesota relied on a productive run game and Justin Jefferson and also got help from their defense to come away with the road victory.

While the win surely was needed and feels great, there were some aspects of this game that were disappointing to see unfold. The Vikings did some things that were a little confusing and discouraging, and now is the time to point those out and talk about them a little bit.

Again, the win was needed and earned, but here are the most disappointing things from Minnesota's 21-13 victory over the Panthers.
