Alvin Kamara, RB
The Saints running back should probably get all three game balls. He tied an NFL record with six rushing touchdowns. The person he tied, Ernie Nevers, achieved the feat 91 years ago. Kamara also gained a career-high 155 rushing yards on 22 carries, good for 7 yards a carry.
Irv Smith Jr., TE
Playing in his hometown, the Vikings tight end had two touchdowns among his six catches for 53 yards.
Blake Lynch, LB
An undrafted rookie out of Baylor, Lynch had played one defensive snap this season before Friday, when he started and led the Vikings in tackles with 10.
