Kyler Murray’s improving efficiency could help the 5-0 Minnesota Vikings turn their offense into a stronger complement to Brian Flores’ defense.
The Viking Age's Allison Koehler argues that Kyler Murray's rising passing efficiency could bolster the Minnesota Vikings' defense by generating larger leads. Murray's passer rating increased over three starts to 109.6 during a 23-13 victory over the New Orleans Saints, where he completed 24 of 30 passes for 229 yards and one touchdown while adding 51 rushing yards.
Koehler notes that more offensive touchdowns would allow defensive coordinator Brian Flores to deploy aggressive pressure against predictable passing situations. However, the writer emphasizes that the 5-0 Vikings still require better red-zone ball security after Aaron Jones and Myles Price lost fumbles against New Orleans.
