Vikings takeaways: Kyler Murray ascends, Aaron Jones amazes, Kevin O’Connell overcomes a huge gaffe
The Vikings are 5-0 at the bye week largely because of a dominant defense, otherworldly special teams and an offense that continues to make progress. Is it sustainable? That question tilts more toward “yes” with each win the team banks, including Sunday’s 23-13 win at New Orleans.
Michael Rand and Andrew Krammer from the Minnesota Star Tribune break down Kyler Murray’s best game in purple, Aaron Jones continuing to be a workhorse into his 30s and the Vikings finding a way even after losing more players to injury and trying a regrettable trick play almost ended in disaster.
