In the NFL, a win is a win and it typically doesn’t matter how they come about. On Sunday against the Detroit Lions, the Minnesota Vikings certainly did not have their best game of the 2019 season. But the Vikings were able to still walk off the field with a victory and improve their record to 9-4.
Minnesota had control for the majority of their matchup with the Lions and a win never really seemed like it was in danger of not happening for the purple and gold.
Of course, the Vikings were facing a disappointing Detroit team who came into Sunday with only three wins this season.
