Vikings Fall 23-6 to Bills on Monday Night as Peterson Enters Ring of Honor
The Minnesota Vikings lost 23-6 to the visiting Buffalo Bills in the Monday night game at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis on November 9, their second straight defeat. Carson Wentz, starting in place of the injured Kyler Murray, struggled: he completed just 8 of 25 passes for 81 yards with two interceptions, and the Vikings’ offense managed only 178 total yards, a season low. Bills quarterback Josh Allen threw a touchdown pass 44 seconds before halftime, and running back James Cook carried 31 times for 107 yards and a touchdown as Buffalo improved to 7-1. Minnesota dropped to 6-2, and its offensive struggles have become the focus; the team must decide before the 4 p.m. trade deadline on November 10 whether to reinforce at quarterback. The night’s other star was running back Adrian Peterson, who was formally inducted into the Vikings Ring of Honor in a halftime ceremony. Peterson is the franchise’s all-time rushing leader with 14,918 career rushing yards, fifth in NFL history, and joined Minnesota as the seventh overall pick in the 2007 draft. At the ceremony, Peterson sounded the Gjallarhorn and led the crowd in the "Skol" chant. The Vikings next play on November 15 at the Green Bay Packers.
