McBride had his second consecutive 12-catch game (on 12 targets), the first time that’s ever happened in NFL history. Vikings head coach Kevin O’Connell said afterward, “He’s essentially on many of those downs acting as the third wide receiver underneath; catch and run. Tons of yards after catch.”

But then Sam Darnold and the Vikings’ offense put the hammer down and rattled off a six-play touchdown drive in three minutes and twenty seconds before the end of the third quar

It's a pretty impressive feat for the Vikings when you consider their preseason win total was set at 6.5 wins. Already being 3.5 wins ahead of that mark with five games to go is a mark that should earn head coach Kevin O'Connell plenty of Coach of the Year votes.
