Highest graded Vikings from the game vs. the Jaguars

It took more than some Minnesota fans might be comfortable with, but the Vikings eventually took out the Jaguars in overtime.

The Jaguars moved to 1-11 and the Vikings moved to 6-6. It’s safe to say that Jacksonville was the worse team on paper and that Minnesota really didn’t perform to its full potential.

That said, the Vikings needed some players to step up in order to win. Minnesota had a great defensive performance in the second half and the Vikings offense — led by a strong passing game — eventually was too much for the Jaguars defense.

So here are the top qualifiying Minnesota players from the Vikings’ win over the Jaguars, starting with the defense, as compiled by PFF.
