THE BIG ONE 🗞️
Minnesota brought the NFL's best defense to Monday night. It wasn't close to enough.
Buffalo beat the Vikings 23-6 and held the ball for 42:32 to Minnesota's 17:28. James Cook carried 31 times for 107 yards and a touchdown. Josh Allen threw for 234 yards, a touchdown and an interception, and his first score went 25 yards to tight end Keleki Latu, his first target of the season and the first touchdown of his career, per NFL.com.
The Vikings went 0 for 7 on third down. Wentz, starting for the injured Kyler Murray, posted an 8.9 passer rating with two interceptions before Kevin O'Connell benched him for Max Brosmer in the fourth quarter, ESPN reported. The home crowd booed him after nearly every throw as the night went on.
Buffalo is 7-1 for the first time since 1993, the last time it reached a Super Bowl. Minnesota has lost two straight and dropped to third in the NFC North, with the trade deadline hours away.
AROUND THE LEAGUES 🏟️
NFL. Jaguars: landed DT Jordan Davis from the Eagles for picks including a 2027 first, plus S Jessie Bates III and DT Davon Godchaux. Lions: got S Andre Cisco from the Jets for a 2028 sixth.
NBA. Mavericks 125, Pacers 122: Cooper Flagg scored 43 with 10 rebounds. Spurs 122, Suns 96: Victor Wembanyama had 40 and 11. Lakers 124, Hawks 114: Luka Doncic posted 32 points and 10 assists. Pistons 122, Wizards 111: Anthony Davis scored 44 in the loss.
NHL. Oilers 3, Rangers 1: Leon Draisaitl scored twice for a league-best 18 goals. Sharks 3, Islanders 2: Yaroslav Askarov stopped all eight shootout attempts. Flyers 3, Canucks 1: Vancouver has lost six straight.
INJURY WATCH 🩹
Adem Bona and Dominick Barlow (76ers): out tonight (neck and back), per the team's Monday injury report via PhillyVoice.
Ariel Hukporti (76ers): out, ruptured right Achilles, per Celtics Wire (1:03 AM ET Tue).
Celtics: no injuries listed, per PhillyVoice and Celtics Wire (1:03 AM ET Tue).
Jalen Hurts (Eagles): sidelined with blood clots, per Yahoo Sports (Mon). Philadelphia is 2-7.
NUMBER OF THE DAY 🔢
19. Connor McDavid scored against the Rangers to reach a 19-game point streak to open the season. Only Wayne Gretzky, Dany Heatley and Mats Sundin had done it before, the AP reported.
What a total is, and what eats it. The total is the market's guess at combined points in a game. Tonight's Celtics and 76ers number is 217.5 (ESPN, 6:06 AM ET).
Monday showed what drags scoring down: possessions. Buffalo held the ball for 42:32, and one 15-play drive in the fourth quarter took 8:32 by itself. Fewer possessions mean fewer chances to score, and the two teams combined for 29 points. In the NBA, pace does the same job. No pick here, just how the number works.
OUR TAKE 🐶
Minnesota has the best defense in football and no answer at quarterback. Wentz showed that Murray's backup isn't the fix, and the Vikings have until 4:00 PM ET to decide whether to look outside the building. A 6-2 team with this defense shouldn't waste the season waiting.
