The Minnesota Vikings offense has not always been pretty this season. Injuries have really derailed the start of the year, even with the team sitting at 5-0 and atop the NFC North. Quarterback Kyler Murray has really played well the last two weeks, and it appears he is learning how to command this team, which is quite a relief for both fans and the front office.

While speaking to the media following Sunday's win, Murray spoke about how completions have helped the offense find a rhythm:

Murray mentioning that he hits a flow state was funny, but it appears to be true. Over the last two weeks, Murray is completing over 75% of his passes, which has helped this

offense move the ball. Even better, is that Murray italized his legs for the first time all season on Sunday against New Orleans, rushing for 51 yards.

The connection with Justin Jefferson appears to be developing as well, as Murray and Jefferson connected six times for 79 yards and a touchdown. If those two can get on the same page, it unlocks so many possibilities for this team. Minnesota is on BYE this week and will face the Indianapolis Colts in week seven.
