The Minnesota Vikings had Adrian Peterson in the lineup and had 17 carries for 84 yards and two touchdowns, but they still needed a Blair Walsh 55-yard field goal as time expired in regulation and another one in overtime to defeat the Jacksonville Jaguars 26-23.

The Vikings had a +6.0 advantage in the Trench Counter, as Christian Ponder had the more efficient 9.9 yards per pass compared to his sophomore counterpart Blaine Gabbert's 6.2.

Maurice Jones-Drew also played nearly a full game, rushing 19 times for 77 yards.
