By Adam Carlson
The Minnesota Vikings got a big win in Week 10 when they defeated the New Orleans Saints and there was a lot to learn about the team from the game.
Week 10 was an interesting week for the Minnesota Vikings. There was news about star wide receiver Justin Jefferson possibly returning soon and the national media was intrigued with the play for quarterback Josh Dobbs.
Minnesota was set to host the New Orleans Saints, a team that is competitive in the NFC South and came into the game with an identical record to the Vikings at 5-4. This game would be another good test for a depleted purple and gold squad.
Although the Saints had a second-half rally to make the game come down to a last-second Hail Mary attempt, the Vikings were able to hold on to defeat New Orleans by a final score of 27-19 in front of the crowd at U.S. Bank Stadium.
Watching that game made some things about the current state of the Minnesota Vikings and their possible future success apparent. Here are six of the biggest takeaways from their Week 10 contest against the Saints.
