Game balls
Kevin Stefanski: On Stefanski's first drive as interim offensive coordinator, the Vikings glided 76 yards down the field for a TD in six plays — four runs, two passes. Everybody exhales.
Dalvin Cook: Rushed for a career-high 136 yards and scored his first two rushing TDs of the season. Showed explosiveness right away, with gains of 27 (pass) and 26 (run) yards on first drive.
Anthony Barr: Team-high seven tackles, including two sacks. Killed Miami's momentum when he dropped Ryan Tannehill for a 9-yard loss on a first-and-10 in the third quarter.
