- Oct 4 Omar Kelly (X) The previous two weeks, this Vikings defense has faced two former number one overall picks at QB in Baker Mayfield and Caleb Williams. Limited Baker to complete just 50% of his passes, he was sacked 6 times, threw a pick and finished with a 67.9 QBR (and knocked him out of a month of games). Limited Williams to complete just 57.7% of his passes, sacked him 3 times, intercepted him once and he finished with a 56.2 QBR. But somehow everyone is surprised by what they saw today from Willis and this Dolphins offense? What do you all really want, by the way? Tua back? Quinn Ewers back? What are you going to do when Manning returns to school - and boy he would have lit up these Vikings today, wouldn't he?
