The toughness of the Minnesota Vikings shows both on the field and with their 10-2 record. They have a special type of resilience this season and it has shown in a multitude of ways.
One of the ways it has shown is how the defense has finished games this season. With Camryn Bynum’s interception on fourth down against the New York Jets, it marked the fourth time that they had clinched a game with a turnover with one coming in each month.
How many different ways have the #Vikings won close games?
In each month this season, they've ended a game with a different DB recording a game-ending takeaway.
Sept: Metellus INT vs. DET
Oct: Dantzler forced fumble vs. CHI
Nov: Peterson INT vs. BUF
Dec: Bynum INT vs. NYJ— Ben Goessling (@BenGoessling) December 4, 2022
The Vikings’ defense has been incredibly opportunistic this season and it shows with their turnover differential. They are currently second in the NFL with a +8 turnover differential this season only behind the Philadelphia Eagles who are +13.
You don’t want to count on these plays to win games, but they sure are great when they happen.
