The Minnesota Vikings' defense came out to play and kept the Bears' offense from getting going. The weather made things messy, but the Vikings did just enough to let Will Reichard's leg do the work.
The weather did no team any favors, but the Vikings seemed to be led by their ground game and Aaron Jones Sr. He converted big plays when they needed him most. While they never found the endzone, without Jones and his shiftiness in space, this could have easily been a 3-0 win for the Bears.
That figurative and literal mess is behind them, though, and it is on to Week 3. All of our updates are found on our blog from the Vikings' Week 3 matchup with the Bucs. Be sure to read through to see the big plays happening.
