The Minnesota Vikings remain undefeated after a 23-17 victory over the New York Jets in London. Jets quarterback Sam Darnold had a tough game, throwing for 179 yards and three interceptions, including a costly pick-six by linebacker Andrew Van Ginkel. Despite Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers throwing for 244 yards and two touchdowns, the Vikings defense proved to be the difference in the game. Minnesota’s defense held the Jets to 3.6 yards per play and sacked Rodgers three times. The Jets staged a comeback, but ultimately fell short after a late interception by Rodgers. It was Darnold’s first game of the season without throwing a touchdown, but his team was still able to secure the win. With the victory, the Vikings are now 5-0 and have a bye week in Week 6, while the Jets dropped to 2-3.
