The Vikings traded in snowy Minnesota for sunny Jacksonville, and the defensive line brought the heat in a 25-16 win over the Jaguars Sunday.
Defensive end Everson Griffen proved to be a nightmare for Jacksonville’s offense. He showed up throughout the day, making four big plays that influenced the game’s outcome.
On the Jaguars second possession of the game, Griffen was able to get around the edge and sack Blake Bortles for a loss of 6. The play moved the Jaguars back to their own 37, and they found themselves unable to recover, ultimately punting on fourth-and-6.
