The most shocking part of the NFL's Christmas Day slate isn't the fact that the Minnesota Vikings stunned the Lions in Week 17, but the fact that Max Brosmer out-played Jared Goff in said upset. And that was in large part due to a Vikings' defensive masterclass courtesy of beloved DC Brian Flores.
The Vikings' 23-10 victory saw Flores' defense turn over a high-octane Detroit offense an unprecedented six times, and they sacked Goff five times. What's even more impressive is that Flores and the Minnesota defense helped spoil the Lions' playoff hopes on the most festive day of the year.
