UNDEFEATED AND UNSTOPPABLE: Vikings Stun Texans with Fierce Defense and Darnold's Four-Touchdown Barrage!

In a game that was never in doubt, the Vikings continued their undefeated streak, leaving the Texans reeling in their wake. The crowd was electric as the Vikings' defense came out swinging, racking up four sacks of struggling quarterback C.J. Stroud.

  1. DARNOLD UNLEASHED

    Sam Darnold matched his career high with four touchdown passes, solidifying his status as one of the league's top quarterbacks. He spread the love, connecting with multiple receivers and leaving the Texans' secondary looking bewildered.

  2. GREENARD LEADS THE CHARGE

    Jonathan Greenard was the Vikings' defensive hero, recording three of the four sacks of Stroud. His relentless pursuit of the quarterback set the tone for the rest of the defense, which held the Texans to just 7 points.

  3. TEXANS STRUGGLE TO FIND RHYTHM

    Despite having some bright spots, the Texans were unable to find their groove on offense. Stroud was under constant pressure, and the team's running game was stifled by the Vikings' stout defense.

  4. VIKINGS' D-FENSE DOMINATES

    The Vikings' defense was the story of the game, holding the Texans to just 7 points and 235 total yards. They were relentless in their pursuit of Stroud, never giving him a chance to get into a rhythm.

  5. VIKINGS REMAIN UNDEFEATED

    With the win, the Vikings improve to 5-0 on the season. They'll look to keep their streak alive next week, but for now, they're basking in the glory of their dominant performance.

  6. DARNOLD'S CAREER-HIGH

    Sam Darnold's four touchdown passes were a career high, and he's now tied for third in the league with 10 touchdown passes. He's playing some of the best football of his life, and it's hard to see him slowing down anytime soon.

  7. TEXANS FALL TO 1-4

    The Texans are now 1-4 on the season, and they'll look to get back on track next week. But for now, they're licking their wounds and trying to figure out what went wrong.

The Vikings will look to keep their undefeated streak alive next week, but for now, they're basking in the glory of their dominant performance. They're the team to beat in the league, and it's going to take a monumental effort for any team to take them down.
