Jim Souhan grades the Vikings

November 8, 2015 at 10:18PM

OFFENSE

Souhan's grade: C

Adrian Peterson ran with authority against a tough D. Teddy Bridgewater was occasionally effective, but overall not enough points.

DEFENSE

Souhan's grade: B

Excellent open field tackling saved the day.

SPECIAL TEAMS

Souhan's grade: B

Blair Walsh has made 15 straight, including the game-winner Sunday. Jeff Locke needs work on pooch punts.

COACHING

Souhan's grade: C

Didn't like lack of timeout at end of first half or play calls inside two minutes at end of game, but decision to defer in overtime won the game.
