The Vikings' ceiling is very high if they keep playing like this on both sides of the ball.
Aaron Jones has been on some very good football teams. He spent the first seven seasons of his NFL career with the Packers, winning 13 games three times and making two trips to the NFC championship game. So when he says there's something different about this Vikings team, that stands out.Sunday's 34-7 win over the Texans
It's not just the fact that the Vikings are undefeated to begin this season, it's the way in which they've done it. They have two blowout wins and were a couple red zone turnovers away from a much more comfortable victory over the 49ers last week. The offense, with guys like Sam Darnold, Justin Jefferson, and Jones leading the way, is executing efficiently. Brian Flores' defense has been absolutely dominant, allowing just 30 total points so far with 16 sacks and six takeaways.
Harrison Smith, a 13-year veteran and the team's longest-tenured player, described how much fun he's having playing on this team, and this defense, with the group of guys the Vikings have assembled.
