More national praise for the 4-0 start

The Vikings appear to have completely captured the attention of the national media after beating the Packers to 4-0 on Sunday. Many pundits and former players took notice this weekend and that continued into Monday, with Emmanuel Acho of FOX Sports being the latest to fully jump on the Vikings bandwagon.

“No matter how good you think the Vikings are, they’re better,” Acho said on Monday’s edition of The facility on FS1. “Find a coaching staff outside of the Chiefs that you think is better than the combination of Kevin O’Connell and Brian Flores. Get this, they are first in passing touchdowns and first in interceptions. They are a He is the best offensive player and at the same time the best player in the National Football League. Not only is he a master, but he’s also Brock Purdy, down and out. Jordan love, down and out.

Minnesota took a 28-0 lead in the first half before giving up 22 unanswered points at Lambeau Field on Sunday afternoon. The Vikings held on to their lead, securing a 31-29 victory and improving to a 4-0 start that surprised many. After several strong performances against preseason favorites like the 49ers, Texans and Packers, the Vikings have clearly assured outside doubters that they mean business.

“Do you all realize that the Vikings are dismantling some of the best quarterbacks in football?” Acho continued. “The Vikings are dismantling some of the best offenses in football. The Vikings are dismantling some of the best.” teams in football.”

Minnesota now travels to London to face a 2-2 Jets team that lost 10-9 to the Denver Broncos on Sunday. Jets QB Aaron Rodgers has been sacked 10 times this season and is completing 64.1% of his passes. Playing against an old division foe that has mobility issues following an Achilles tendon injury will certainly turn heads for the ferocious Vikings defense come Sunday.

“I’ll say it again: Be careful of the offenses, be careful of the teams, because the Vikings are not playing games,” Acho said.
