In terms of playoff implications, the Vikings did not have anything to play for on Sunday against the Lions.
But the team still played a good game and pulled off the victory, moving to 7-9. Minnesota ended the year on a high note and now it’s time to assess what happened in the game.
The Vikings won 37-35. The offense put up points and the defense gave up big plays, so it wasn’t a huge departure from what happened most of the year.
Plenty of Vikings players stepped up. See whose stock went up and whose stock went down for the final time this 2020 NFL season.
