*I think the Vikings did something in Week 1 that took them all season to do last year – establish their identity! We’re a running football team that's going to play rock-solid defense and control the clock. While I don't see Kirk Cousins throwing just 10 passes each game, it’s nice knowing we don't need to rely on only one phase to dominate. Skol! *


The way the Vikings won on Sunday is the way head coach Mike Zimmer loves to win football games. Tough, physical, smart play, along with complementary football, is what defined this victory. There are some things to clean up, for sure, such as the penalties. Overall, though, this was a solid, well-rounded win paced by an effective ground game, stingy defense and sound special teams play.
