In a hard-fought match at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, the Minnesota Vikings surged to a 23-17 victory over the New York Jets, maintaining their undefeated record for the season. The game was marked by Minnesota's formidable defense, which intercepted Aaron Rodgers three times, including a decisive pick by Stephon Gilmore in the final minute, ensuring victory.
Minnesota's Andrew Van Ginkel made headlines early by returning an interception 63 yards for a touchdown, igniting a 17-0 lead. Despite an admirable comeback effort by the Jets, whose passing game revived in the second half under Rodgers’ leadership, Minnesota’s kicker Will Reichard was pivotal, converting crucial field goals. The Vikings' defense consistently pressured Rodgers, disrupting his rhythm, while a hip injury to running back Aaron Jones posed challenges for Minnesota's offense, compensated by strategic adjustments from coach Kevin O’Connell.
