Why you should rewatch:
Sam Darnold and Minnesota marched into Lambeau Field and spoiled Jordan Love’s return from a Week 1 knee injury to keep themselves atop the NFC as the conference’s only remaining undefeated team. Darnold, who is enjoying a career renaissance, led the Vikings to pay dirt on four of their first five drives on Sunday. Darnold became the first QB to win and have two or more passing TDs in each of his first four career starts for a team in the Super Bowl era, per Next Gen Stats. Darnold found most of his success on in-rhythm dropbacks (between 2.5 and 4 seconds) and threw touchdowns to three different receivers. Green Bay nearly rallied from 28 down as Love dialed up 389 yards and four passing scores. Ultimately, however, Brian Flores’ defense met the moment and generated four turnovers on the day to quell any potential comeback. That complete team effort helped tie Minnesota for an NFL-best +57 in point differential and likely quieted some doubters.
