3 Areas the Vikings Need to Improve Coming Out of the Bye Week

Adam New of Vikings Territory argues that the undefeated 5-0 Minnesota Vikings must make major improvements on offense after their bye week. Despite having a league-leading defense and strong special teams, the offense has struggled with efficiency. The writer highlights scoring more touchdowns, getting key players healthy, and starting games faster as the three primary areas Minnesota needs to address.

Through Week 5, the Vikings scored just nine touchdowns, relying heavily on field goals from kicker Will Reichard. New notes that while left guard Donovan Jackson is out for the season, the team hopes to regain key offensive contributors like Christian Darrisaw, TJ Hockenson, and Jordan Addison before hosting the Indianapolis Colts in Week 7.
