Game ball goes to the D, they stepped up big time:

• Sweat has turned the DL around. Dude’s a monster.
• Turns out Dexter was a good second-round choice after all. He trails only Carter as the best rookie DLineman.
• TJ Edwards is a tackling machine. He was solely responsible for killing a few important drives for the Vikes.
• Terrell Smith may be a diamond in the rough. He looks comfortable and tackles really well.
• Hey, look; it’s Tremaine Edmunds.
• Jaylon Johnson, you are ridiculous.
• The Flus was loose. He threw in a lot of creative pre-snap looks which was pleasantly surprising.

I’ve been waiting for a defensive performance like that all year. It felt doubly good making the flavor-of-the-month QB look human after all.
