Do you know how the Vikings are doing it?

From SkolNorth the Vikings are:

- 5th most Red Zone TD's in the NFL = 27
- Field Position 4th best = Average 30 yard line
- Only (6) Offensive holding penalties all year
- 4th Lowest turnovers in the NFC = 12 all season

I think the offense is sustainable. Those factors are a result of much better focus and discipline across the board. And that will likely remain, if not even improve late in the year. 

What I think isn't sustainable, unfortunately, is the defense continuing to get key stops and turnovers late in the game to preserve wins. I think it's part of who they are, but when the Mike Whites and Mac Joneses turn into Dak Prescotts and Jalen Hurts in the playoffs it's going to be much harder.

might be a bigger number if they were doing a better job of keeping their QB off his ass.  Cousins is the 7th most sacked QB in the league at 30,  and is likely that high or higher in hits.  it would be a much more impressive number if they were actually accomplishing their job more often.
