The regular season is now over for the Minnesota Vikings. They finished with a 7-10 record after a 30-20 loss to the Detroit Lions ended their chances of making the playoffs.
The game went about as well as anyone could have predicted. The Lions’ offense could move with relative ease on a Vikings’ defense that was devastated with injuries. They scored four touchdowns en route to beating the Vikings.
The offense wasn’t too bad. They outgained the Lions by 67 yards but two turnovers and untimely penalties put them behind the eight-ball consistently
The Pro Football Focus grades are out and the offense graded relatively well considering a 10-point loss.
