VikingsTerritory Breakdown - A Minnesota Vikings Radio Show

The Minnesota Vikings lost 19-15 to the Detroit Lions in Ford Field on Sunday. It was bound to happen—only one team has won all their games (the 1972 Miami Dolphins, who might still be recovering from their champagne hangover). Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The Minnesota Vikings return from their bye week in pretty good shape. At 5-0 and atop the NFC North Division, they have some players returning from injury and, last we checked, were starting to get some decent play from the offense and the leader of that offense, quarterback Kyler Murray. As Murray will be a key to the rest of the season, the continued stellar play of the defense and special teams will be also be vital. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Vikings quarterback Kyler Murray had his best game as a Viking, both by land and by air. He threw for 229 yards with 80 percent accuracy and picked up three first downs with his feet, scrambling for 51 yards. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

There was some life late from the Vikings offense—Murray’s stats in the fourth quarter were 13 of 14 for 120 yards, 102.4 passer rating and a “would-be” touchdown to Hockenson. That is a sign for hope at the QB position—one we have been looking for since last season. And they have the chance to tee it up again next week and see if they can build on it.
