Offensive PFF grades from Vikings win vs. 49ers

Not only did the Minnesota Vikings find a way to beat the San Francisco 49ers 22-17, but the entire dichotomy of the season has changed for the better.

Turnovers have been the catalyst to why the Vikings started 2-4 and that nearly happened again. Kirk Cousins threw an interception to Charvarius Ward on the third play of the game after he ripped it out of the hands of Jordan Addison.

The difference on Monday night was the Vikings forced a fumble of Christian McCaffrey just five plays later and the rest is history.

The grades from Pro Football Focus are in and don’t accurately reflect how dominant the Vikings were on Monday night.
