The starting quarterback of the Vikings has been incredible the last two weeks and the stats bear that out. He has done something in the last two weeks that the rest of the NFL has only done twice in total.

It’s normal for a team to come out flat a week after an emotional win. It is on head coach Kevin O’Connell to ensure that they come out ready to roll after winning the NFC North.
